Sorry for falling off again that last chapter Idk just didn't flow out like the others and I don't like writing unless I feel it flow but I'm feeling it now so hopefully it'll start flowing again

I saw all of my memories flash before my eyes over and over again slowly moving away from me as if they're sinking deeper and deeper into the ocean that is my subconscious. As I floated to the surface I start to hear voices the first to truly register is a soft melodic voice that feels familiar but for some reason I can't place it. I can tell 2 things though the first being the voice belongs to a woman the second being she is BEYOND pissed off..."-DO YOU MEAN YOU USED THE NEW TORTURE ON HIM?! WAS I NOT COMPLETELY CLEAR THAT HE WAS NOT TO BE TOUCHED AGAIN?!! THE GIRL IS FAIR GAME BUT HE-" the second voice I register is a loud gruff overpowering voice that again sounds familiar but I can't place it my mind still muddled and fuzzy is barely able to concentrate on what the voices are saying as it is "ENOUGH! YOU BEST MIND YOUR PLACE WOMAN!! HE PUT HIMSELF IN THIS SITUATION BY DENYING ME MY PREY AND DISOBEYING ME! RAISE YOUR VOICE WITH ME AGAIN WOMAN AND YOUR PRECIOUS LITTLE ASSASSIN WON'T LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO SEE YOU AGAIN!" At that statement she gasps and when she speaks again I can hear her barely controlled rage ".....You will NOT harm him again do you hear me Tartarus? Should I find out you've tortured him again you'll find how truly dangerous the Night can be..." She stops talking letting that threat hang in the air and I can feel the fear flash through who I now know is my uncle he quickly hides his fear with his anger at being threatened but he keeps his tone in check obviously aware that this woman can back up her threat "I understand but you understand this. You will never be able to fix him exactly as your name suggest you once gave him Hope but you left him destroyed and broken and he just relived it over and over....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Do you think he'll just forget the wounds of the past forgive the devastation he suffered at your hands and become the being you think you saw?! He is just a tool! A toy used by the higher beings for entertainment that's all any of you half-bloods truly are! Tell your mother and his father that the weapon was a success and we'll be needing more soon if your little boyfriend is any good at his job we'll have more torturing to do soon." He turns and walks let of the tent and the woman sighs I hear he soft steps coming closer they stop next to me and she kneels next to me. She starts playing with my hair as if I was just laying down with her on a picnic I feel something warm land on my cheek and I realize she's crying I try as hard as I can fighting against the darkness every fiber of my being pushing to comfort her but all I manage is a finger twitch. "Please Fate....fight through this I know you can.....you have to remember what I said...you're stronger than this Fate...you have to be strong the challenges you'll have to face...I'm so sorry...I was wrong we were never Fated to be together...but I'll always love you....you were and always will be my guiding light in the darkness we call home....goodbye Fate remember my words..." As she stands and starts walking away it finally clicks in my head who she is and I struggle harder than ever before to move or do something to get her attention all my emotions rush through me the pain the hurt the love everything in the rush of emotions I feel energized and use that energy to force myself up opening my eyes to stare right at the girl that destroyed me once the girl that showed me how to live then killed me all over again Hope the love of my life. She turns and we stare straight into each others eyes hers have changed instead of the kaleidoscope they used to be they are now black but twinkle as if holding the stars of the night sky in them she smiles sadly at me and fades away into the night leaving a fading light that can only be described as stardust.....

-Time Skip-

I stare into the night sky and sigh as I remember the pain that day caused me....since that day I've been traveling I'm not sure what I've been searching for but I know there's something out there for me I've traveled far and wide. I left America months ago and I passed through Europe quite quickly I'm currently in some Chinese fishing village just a short boat ride away from Japan. On my way around the world I found out that the Greek gods aren't the only ones that survived the Egyptians the Norse and even the Chinese have all survived I also found out they all really don't like a child of a rival pantheon in their domains in fact they hate it with a passion. The constant run-ins with the different gods and their descendants has been somewhat beneficial to me but also somewhat painful the upside they finally figured out that I'm not one to be trifled with the downside it cost me half of my body before it all stopped. I always wear my hood now to hide my ghoulish face and I'm still getting used to the prosthetic arm and leg but they barely bother me anymore I've vowed to not use my powers while I travel after that day they went out of control and I nearly killed Iris on a simple scouting mission. I feel myself start to slip into the embrace of Morpheus and I stand quickly to fight it off if I sleep I dream and if I dream I feel the pain all over again and that is NOT going to happen....I guess it's time to move again. I pull my hood lower and walk the 4 miles towards the coast but I can't shake this feeling that I'm being watched but this presence is unlike any I've ever felt before it feels incredibly close yet indescribably far at the same time I can feel it watching me but it hasn't made it's move yet....I speed up to a full out run until I reach the coast I look up and down the beach until I find the docks I rush over and begin searching for a boat as I sneak from boat to boat I feel a second presence join the first I almost didn't notice the second one's appearance but it feels slightly different from the other abit more aggressive I'm feeling more and more uneasy as they watch me so I decide to take the next boat and start sailing to Japan in my rush to get away from China and the presences watching me I almost didn't notice the third presence and the flash of light on the cliff side that left 3 figures standing watching me go...
