PERCY

Gaia cackled maliciously. "Excellent, my lord."

She bowed to me. Wait, dirtface was bowing to me? A deep voice chucked behind me. "Perseus Jackson... he is my host?"

Gaia got up. "Yes, my lord. The boy has sworn on the River Styx for his trust."

"That is not enough."

The entire cave seemed to shake as his voice penetrates through my mind, almost driving him to chaos.

"He must swear on his girlfriend's life."

My back arched up as a finger rested on his shoulder. Annabeth's....life? "That way, when he sides with us, he still won't want his girlfriend dead."

Gaia bowed obediently. "Yes, my lord."

"Now Perseus. You do know who I am, correct?"

I turned around. "You're...."

My eyes widened in absolute terror. A crooked smile played at the lips on the man.

"I am End."
