Rutha's P.O.V
And I charged.
Before Herron had the chance to react, I morphed my sceptre into a spear. "This is for hurting me!" I swiped at his arm. "This is for hurting my friends!" I axe kicked him in the face. "And this is for hurting my FAMILY!" I repeated his move, and I stabbed him straight through the heart. Herron was silent, his eyes rolling back into his head, and he face planted onto the ground. His voice echoed in my mind
You shall see me in Tartarus.
"Nah." I said out loud, startling everyone. "Go to Tartarus, you!" Silence. Suddenly, cheers arupted from everywhere.
"RUTHA! RUTHA! RUTHA!" They all chanted over and over, lifting me on their shoulders. I have OFFICALY recieved freedom.
But then I remembered. Mom. Dad. They were walking over to me.
OH CRAP, they're gonna kill me. I panicked. I hopped off of the shoulders and walked over to them.
"Oh mother, father." I said, bowing slightly. "I didn't--"
"Rutha. It's fine dear." Hera gently said. Zeus nodded.
"You-you're not going to punish me or kill me or ban me or disown me or--"
"Rutha." This time, my father spoke. "It was wrong for you to run away like that, but you could've told us how you were feeling."
"I've tried for the past thirteen years, father. When I heard about this camp, I was fed up with all of you and so I ran away, thinking what a life would be like here, actually appreciated. I......used my gift. Imagination. I imagined being accepted. But I guess my freedom is over." I paused for a moment, tears starting to fall from my eyes. "Take me back to Olympus. Do whatever you need to do."
Silence. Again.
It was super awkward. Tears streaming down my extremely red face, everyone waiting for them to speak. When they did, the reply was shocking.

"Rutha, you can stay."
