Betrayed and Alone

Forgiveness Denied Part 2 (29)

 Percy's P.O.V.

            "PERCY!" The crowd of the remaining 7 wailed outside my window. I groaned and rolled over. These idiots are obviously dumber than I thought if they think they can get my forgiveness by waking me up. Well, it was now or never. I rolled off my bed, landed on my hands and feet. I went through a quick shower and pulled some clothes on. I raked a comb through my hair and armed myself with half of the weapons I owned (so, about 100)- it could get rough. I pulled on my trademark cloak. My hand hovered over my ruined mask, but what was the point? They already knew who I was, they knew my identity. My cover was blown. However you want to see it. I don't care- not anymore. 

           I leaned back on the wall, considering. I composed myself before using my amazing water powers (they didn't fade) to mist travel. It's a strange experience, and I reappeared with all of my limbs in the shadows behind the remaining 7. I carefully crept forward without a sound, and whispered "Boo." softly into their ears. The reaction was hilarious. Screams of surprise, random slashing of swords, people falling onto their butts. "Percy-" Jason began uncertainly before I cut him off viciously.

          "Let me tell you something, punk. I don't go by that name anymore. You toss me away like trash, I toss away that stupid name. I don't want the name of some kid of Zeus that was lucky, because I'm not. Now shut up and don't wake me up again." I said savagely, and stalked off towards the woods. "OMEGA! PLEASE!" Jason pleaded me to come back. I paused and growled, "Drop and give me 50 push-ups. NOW!" I turned around and glared at Jason. He flinched before dropping to the ground and began doing push-ups. I stalked off again, dramatically.

         I began to run, which was fun and also challenging. Then I ran into Clarisse. Literally. "Why, you punk, I'm-" Clarisse began angrily before seeing me. "Omega! I need to ask you something..." Clarisse greeted me nervously. I sighed, before nodding at her to continue. "Will you forgive me?" Clarisse asked. I smiled at her. "Well, you always doubted the rumor that I was a traitor. You didn't scream for my blood... Sure, why not?" I said carelessly, hiding my expression of happiness with a shrug and a small smile. "Don't tell anyone." I added to the happy half-blood.

        She froze before nodding. I grinned at her before disappearing into the forest. I darted through the branches and leaped into a lake. It wasn't the lake where I kissed her, it was a beautiful lake. Crystal clear with a single willow tree, beautiful green grass surrounding it. Gorgeous wild flowers. This was the lake I had found 2 years ago and hadn't shared with her. I swam in lazy circles, feeling better than I ever had. I sighed happily. This was the place where I would relax when the Athena spawn made me feel stupid and hurt me without realizing it. Even then, I was a good actor.

       I spent an hour there, relaxing, reading, writing. Yeah, I kept a stash there, it was waterproof. I dried myself by making the water to go back in the lake. I walked towards camp feeling refreshed. The second I entered, Annabitch pulled me back into the woods. She pushed me up against a dead tree, tracing my jaw with a finger. I frowned. WTF was happening? She stroked my cheek, and a small part of the old, innocent me liked it. "Percy...." She whispered in my ear, and stood on her toes to kiss me. I pushed her off of me and brushed myself off. She gazed at me, hurt. Good.

          I glared at her, made a point of putting hand sanitizer where she touched me. My former girlfriend was emotionless, her grey eyes calculating. I shrugged off the unease that I felt, and decided to not eat anything at this cursed camp. I wouldn't put it against the Athena spawn to put a love potion in my food. Yeah, stick to the disgusting, dry, tasteless, unsatisfying meal replacement pills. Storm pouted. Shut up. I replied, trying not to acknowledge the truth in his words. What? I thought that you loved me! Storm teased in a mockingly sad voice.

         I turned around and stalked back towards the Chaos Cabin, trying to ignore the grumblings of Storm. When I was out of sight, I shot at my wolf: You've got a real sense of humor, you know. Laughter. My wolf was laughing. I'm the most beautiful, funny, understanding wolf there is! He howled, victory in the howl. Stop lying- I'm the one that makes you beautiful! I scoffed. I shook my head and stalked into the Chaos Cabin. I stalked into my room, locked the door, and lay on my bed to argue with my wolf who was beautiful (me, obviously)- and whether we should forgive THEM.

        Anyways, Sarah is in the lead! But, I decided to let the vote go until May 2. Why? Because I decided to add another "person" to the list: Storm. I myself have fallen in love with the loyal, handsome, sarcastically funny wolf half of Percy. Anyways, vote! I give you almost two more months to vote! Remember to:
