Percy Jackson: Shattered

Chapter 4 - Tears

3rd POV

The Past

Nicole collapsed to the ground, holding her head in her hands.

"Percy! No!" She screamed.

It took the Olympians and the Primordials ten minutes to calm her down enough for her to speak.

"What was that noise? What happened to Percy?!" Poseidon asks hurriedly.

"He-he-his." She stopped talking and started sobbing again.

"Nicole! Get it together! We can't help Percy if we're panicking!" Nyx tells her sternly.

Nicole straightens up and takes a deep breath.

"Right. We need to help Percy." She said determined.

"So, what happened to Percy?" Poseidon asks.

"His mind has finally shattered, completely." She says sadly.

Poseidon gasps and tears fill his eyes. A few of the other Gods have similar reactions. The Primordials, however, have their emotions locked away for the time being.

"Percy was cursed down in Tartarus. He was cursed by something that only called itself 'The Monster of Curses'.

"The rules of the curse are as follows; his mind will shatter more and more each day, the cure is in his mind, but the more his mind shatters, the harder it is to find, and his eyes will show the extent of his insanity. The last part was said to be a blessing or a curse, depending on how Percy took it. He gained the ability to understand and speak to all monsters." Nicole explains.

"If the cure was in his mind, how do we find it?" Asks Athena.

"I don't know." Is Nicole's response.

In the parallel universe

An insane Percy has somehow escaped his chains, and is now making it his mission to annoy anyone he comes across. The mission has so far been a great success, much to Percy's pleasure and any others irritation.

He finally makes his way into the Throne Room. When Śåłłÿ sees him, she just groans.

"What are you doing here?" She asks irritably.

"I just wanted to annoy you!" Percy grins.

Suddenly he waves his arms around.

"By the way, why do my arms feel so weird? It's almost like they aren't connected!" Percy laughs.

Śåłłÿ just groans and drops her head in her hands.

"That's because the aren't connected! Your arms and ankles have been dislocated, you shouldn't be able to move!" She shouts.

Percy only gives her a blank stare before saying "Cool!" and running out the door.

"Why did I bring him hear?" Śåłłÿ whispers to herself.

Percy pokes his head in the doorway with a serious look on his face.

"Talking to yourself is the first sign of madness you know. Well, maybe you don't know, but I do!" Percy says gleefully.

Śåłłÿ screams and throws a glass at Percy, who just dodges it and runs away laughing.

Hi! *hides behind iPad* I know you want to kill me! But think about it. If you did, you would never get another update! So what's better? A late update, or no updates? I'll let you think on that! Anyways, I hope you like the chapter! I also have some other books you guys might like. One is a Pirate!Percy book, another is a Pirate!Harry Potter book, and the last one I'll tell you about is a Harry Potter/Five Nights at Freddy's crossover. It's better than it sounds! So today's question is...

Should I host a Florida meet-up as well? If so, it would have to be this month. I will still do the Atlanta meet-up either way. So R.S.V.P. if you can or could come to either. I need answers now because I'll only be in Florida for a little longer.

Well, that's all for now! Bye! Vote, Comment, Share, and Don't forget that Snakes are better than Lions!
