(Percy's POV!!! Yay!!! But I'm doing it in 3rd.)

Percy was thrown into a really hard rock cell, with a smelly, damp corner that served as the bathroom. The cell had served as his home for three days now. Shuffling sounds told Percy that he wasn't the only one in his cell.

"Who's there?" He called out to the darkness.

"A mortal." A woman's voice rasped back.

She stepped into the dim light of the lantern. Percy was taken aback by how much she looked like Samara. Same chocolate brown hair, same wide eyes, though Samara's were a dark blue, not brown, even the same calm expression.

"You're her mother." He whispered, awed.

The woman smiled. "I am Michelle, yes. Who are you, child? You remind me a little of my friends back in Chaos' planet. And you have a power of a god in you."

"My name is Percy Jackson, and I'm a son of Poseidon. End wants to make me his commander, but I think because of my fatal flaw, he may have to brainwash me first." His voice wasn't much over a whisper.

Michelle scowled. "End stole me from my husband. None of his ideas are good for anyone but him."

"I think he planned with Jack to make me feel so depressed that I wouldn't put up a fight to being brainwashed. Jack kissed my girlfriend, and I thought she was cheating on me. Thankfully, Samara was there to....I really don't know what she did. She just said some words that helped me stopped feeling betrayed." Percy explained.

Michelle frowned. "Chaos lets Samara out of his sight?"

Percy nodded slowly. "She can take care of herself rather well."

She shrugged. "I just can't see Chaos being that lenient after my disappearance."

He raised an eyebrow. "You haven't seen her with any weapons. She's deadly, especially as an assassin."

Michelle looked shocked. "An assassin?"

Percy nodded. "Samara was Chaos' assassin. She was sent to kill me before our battle against Night."

Her eyes widened, and she crossed her legs as if she was going to be there for a long time. "Tell me." She commanded.

So, Percy told her about Samara's attempts at killing him, her being captured by Night, Annabeth's possession, and how Samara used her newfound Chaos' powers to send Nyx to Tartarus. Michelle listened to the story attentively.

She asked one question when he was done, but it wasn't about the story.
"You said your last name was Jackson. Do you happen to be related to Renee and Patrick Jackson?"

Percy shook his head. "Not that I know of."

"They had a daughter named Sally, and then died in a plane crash when she was still rather young. Chaos thought they needed another chance at life."

His eyebrows shot up off his face. "My mother's name is Sally. And her parents did die in a plane crash. Those are my grandparents."

Michelle chuckled. "They practically raised Samara, since I wasn't there and Chaos was busy with his universe duties."

The two prisoners talked for what seemed to them days, until the son of End came to get Percy. That was the last time Percy was still the noble hero everyone knew him as.
