Light me up (A Leo Valdez story)

Its okay...

I ran and ran and I could hear people noticing I was gone. I knew that prophecy was about me. I was a gift from the gods for this mission.

I kept running until I heard Percy calling my name. I have to hid!!! Wait a second. What's that?

There was an entrance to something. I went and pushed on it. I couldn't get it to budge. Percy was getting closer. I didn't want to talk about all this. I pushed harder on the door my hands beginning to glow. Harder and bam the door opened and I went tumbling in. Woah! What was this place?

Work benches and blueprints everywhere. The door was closed behind me. I was alone, I walked around running my fingers over all the machines and looking at the blueprints. What is this place.

Minutes passed and I was at the opposite end of the bunker looking at a blue print of some giant machine. The door opened. "Woah what are you doing here?"

I turned around to see Leo standing in the door way. He walked to me and when he stood right in front of me he noticed the tears filing my eyes. "Woah there, it's okay. You don't need to cry. You aren't trespassing or anything." He said with a chuckle.

I didn't respond. He grabbed my shoulders bending down to look me in the eye, "Hey." He said trying to get my attention. I looked down.

He put a finger under my chin and made me look up at him. "It's really okay."

I turned away, "it's not trespassing I'm worried about Leo."

He nodded understanding what I meant, "you're worried about the prophecy. Well let me tell you this, you're not dying and you're not being left behind."

"How can you be so sure?" I asked looking back at him.

"Because..." He said look me straight in the eye. "I won't let that happen."
