Piper pov
I hooked one arm around Jason waist and struggled across the current. The river worked against me: Thousands of weeping voices whispering in her ears, getting inside her brain.
Life is despair, they said. Everything is pointless, and then you die.
" Pointless," Jason murmured. His teeth chattered from the cold. He stop swimming and began to sink.
"Jason" I shrieked. "The river is messing with your mind. It's the Cocytus the river of Lamentation. It is made of pure misery!"
"Misery," he agreed.
"Fight it!"
I kick and struggled, trying to keep them both afloat.
I hugged Jason tighter and kissed him. "Tell me about the plans you had for us." I demanded.
"Plans.........For us..."
"Yeah superman you said you had plans for are future."
" Shrines and cabins... We could move from camp to camp and build them and we could maybe help Percy and Annabeth with making homes in camp-Half-Blood and live in one together" Jason said the fog starting to clear from his eyes.
I started to make progress against the current. My limbs felt like bags of wet sand. But Jason was helping me now. I could see the dark line of the shore about a stone's throw away.
I promised two chapters today so here is the first.
