Percy Jackson who's that?

Pain

I'm sorry I've taken so long to update, there was Catching Fire, and now I've started watching the Vampire Diaries; which are awesome! Damon is a sassy bitch (much like Percy.)
Anyway, excuses, excuses, I tried to make this chapter long, it worked it is the longest I've ever written!
On with the chapter

Luke P.O.V.

I walked around camp, feeling empty and lonely. I noticed all the new cabins at camp and felt better; at least I hadn't betrayed everyone for nothing. Percy's words still stung like poison but i knew them to be true. I was a murderer, I let Silena, Beckendorf, Ethan and many more die. I was a monster.

I just wanted to be alone, so I walked up to Thalia's tree, the one I poisoned, I felt sick to my stomach, I had let these things happen to the people I loved, some of the things I had done myself. I sat beside the trunk of the tree, the smell of pine filling my nose, calming me, Hanging over me was the Golden Fleece, shimmering in the sunlight, the dragons tail at my feet, the one that guarded the camp; frightening, but if it was up against a drakon, it would look like a chihuahua, the dragon not my feet.

I looked out over camp, the Pegasus soaring overhead, lava cascading down the climbing wall, the sun glistening on the sea. The different coloured cabins should look out of place and weird, but they don't, they suit the camp just fine.

Closing my eyes, I breathe in the smell of the pine, in and out. The last time Thalia saw me, she clearly wanted to slit my throat, then she became a hunter, I've always hated the fact that I betrayed her and Annabeth, but I was trying to make their lives better, well Annabeth's anyway, since I thought Thalia was dead, and yet Thalia will never speak to me again.

The sound of the dragon's breath is oddly calming. I had deserved the second chance, Selina and Beckendorf did, but I guess they're happy where they are, they din't blame me although they should.

Still damp from Percy's outburst, I ring out my blonde hair. Soon enough I see a dark figure coming up the hill to meet me, black hair, shortish, wearing dark clothing. I recognize him as Nico Di Angelo.

He takes a seat beside me but doesn't say a word. His dark eyes like obsidian pools. Pale skin stretched over bone, I heard his skin used to be olive coloured, that he used to smile all the time. That is not the boy sat beside me, that boy is long gone, what's left is damaged and neglected.

"What's going through your mind Luke?"
"Uh, how things have changed at camp." I lied, well, it was partly true, I had been thinking that. I could tell he knew I was lying, but he didn't push further. He clearly had his own secrets.

Percy P.O.V.

After Annabeth came to talk to me, she said she had to go do some things around camp, although she couldn't remember the changes to camp, so we parted ways. I just milled around camp, taking in all the changes, until I walked onto the beach.

The sun was starting to set, casting a spectrum of colours into the sky. I sat down in the sand my feet getting caught by the sweeping waves. The smell of the sea filled my nose, returning me to pleasant memories; walking along the beach hand in hand with Annabeth, my mum and dad, childhood memories without Gabe. Man, I loved the smell and the feeling of being around the sea!

My thoughts kept on drifting back to Luke, why had he come back? How had he come back? I didn't really hate him, just the guilt that coursed through me, whenever I thought about him.

I watched a few dolphins swim past, I would say; 'what's up?' they would reply with; 'nothing much you?' before they would be out of earshot I would say; 'Girlfriend troubles.' I would hear a faint; 'we feel you man.' and they were gone, and I was left laughing to myself. How could dolphins even have girlfriend issues?
