FEARan unpleasant emotion caused
by the belief that someone or
something is dangerous, likely to
causepain, or a threat."It is our time for blessings." I say embarrassed by Annabeths comment. Picking up my plate of food, throwing what I love most in the fire.
SHE DID NOT MEAN THAT, I AM NOT A MONSTER.
OR I DONT THINK I AM.
My mother used to call me a monster, but I never knew why. She would just come home and sit in her room all day.
I went back to my cabin when I was done with dinner. "Lights out in 20. Start getting ready for bed." Our cabin leader, will says to us all.
After everyone was asleep I snuck out quietly finding my way to the beach. I sat down, my feet buried in the moist sand.
I listened to the waves crash on the shore, humming to myself quietly. "Are you aloud to be out here?" I heard a voice ask behind me, but it was one I am unfamiliar with.
I looked behind me, it was the boy from earlier. In his pajamas and a sweatshirt. "No, but most people are asleep by now." I explained.
"Can I join you?" He asked, and I thought about my answer before I replied to him. "Sure, but I am not fond of talking." I warn him and he nodded back. Sitting down next to me.
Percy looked at me, then offered me something inside of a plastic baggy. "What is that?" I asked him and he laughed. "A jellybean, try one." He picked one from the bag and handed it to me.
Then he was quiet, for most of the time. "What's the point.. of us being here." He asked me, looking at me.
"Honestly.. I don't know. To keep us safe I guess, some of us just stay here not doing anything for the rest of our lives." I admit, I could only see so much on this beach.
"Do you sing for people?" Percy asked me again, "No, I sing when I have something to say. Or I need to heal someone." I explained to him.
