A great hero was betrayed.
Only three stood next to him.
No one witnessed his death besides one living person.
Now he lives with the guilt of the children who died on his shoulders.
His now a puppet.
Till he can escape.
What happens when his 'frien...
The kid just sat down and hugged his knees to his chest.
"No. He's too strong." He whispers and Mike pulls him into a hug.
"I'm sorry Leo." He tells the boy, the boy pulls away and stands up.
"NO! H-HE ISN'T DEAD!" He shouts, tears streaming down his face.
"JUST FACE IT LEO! He's dead. That traitor is finally dead." The blond boy orders.
"HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT JASON! HE IS ALIVE! I KNOW IT!" Leo, I think, runs out the door. Mike glares at Jason before running out shouting Leo's name.
"I didn't feel him." We turn to the boy in the black outfit, really he was wearing all black.
"Sure he may seem dead. But I didn't feel his soul enter the underworld." He explains. Mike comes back in giving the kid a piggy-back ride, he glares at the other group before turning to us.
"I'm bringing them to the shift tonight. So if what you said is true Vinc, then he is in fact still there."
---------Time skip---------
"Shit! Where's that stupid puppet!" Mike swears and Leo, we learned the kids names by the way, points right in front of us.
"Oh fuck." Vincent mutters next to me, then it does something surprising. It starts to sing.
Then it looks at Leo, it points. He cautiously walks towards the Marionette.
"Hello?" The Marionette doesn't reply, instead it just takes Leo's hands and drops something in them. It turns to leave, it takes three steps before Leo grabs it's arm.
"Where did you get this?" He begs, the Marionette's eyes flash and Leo steps back gasping. It disappears into the shadows and Leo starts to run through the front of the office.
"WAIT!" He cries running into the darkness.
"LEO!" Nico screams running into the shadows, not even one minute later they reappear. But Leo has a bite mark on this shoulder and a claw mark on his leg.
"We need a mechanic." A slightly glitchy, rusty, but soft voice says after we get them actually inside the office. A figure steps into the door way.
"The Mangle." I whisper and it smiles a big smile, showing all its sharp teeth. It walks forwards a little and looks us over, until it's eyes trail over Vincent. It growls threateningly.
"I.HATE.PURPLE." It growls out before crouching into a lunging position. It's about to lung when a deep chuckle echoes through out the room.
"Now now Mangle. We shouldn't hurt our guests, now should we?" A smooth, melodic, and slightly hypnotic voice asks. It was a males voice judging by the low tone. And out steps the Marionette.
"I heard someone calling me." He was directing that to Leo.
"Wh-ere is P-Percy?" Leo weakly asks, the Marionette tisks before walking over.
"Save your strength mechanic. You'll need it in the future." Then it turns to the others.
"Why are you here? Don't you hate him? Call him worthless-" It starts walking around the teens.
"Traitor, idiot, jerk, loser, pathetic, and the worst of them all-" It stops at Annabeth.
"-someone that's not worth loving." It caresses her cheek with one of it's claws and whispers something in her ear. Before it then cuts her cheek.
"Goodbye." It turns to walk away.
"My dear demigod friends." Before disappearing back into the darkness.
"Y-You go-t l-luc-ky. Pu-ppet wo-n't let y-you go so easily ne-xt time." The Mangle hisses before climbing back up into the ceiling. Annabeth only whispers one thing after that.
"Percy." Then she took off running.
Annabeth P.O.V
"PERCY!" I cry out and something shifts in the shadows.
"What a pretty wee lass." A voice coos, the voice was rough, had an Irish twang to it, and was smooth. I turn and gasp.

It moves closer and I start to shake, it comes right up behind me and I stand stiff.
"Aye yes." It traps my arm around its hook, its metal hand caressed my cheek before grabbing my chin and turning my head to the side.
"You'll be a grand addition-" It softly growls into my ear.
"-to my treasure." Its breath hits my face and I shutter at the coolness of his breath.
"Do you know my name?" It asks, I shake my head.
"Speak!" It orders and its claws dig into my neck. I strain to get words out.
"No." I weakly whisper. It chuckles.
"I be Foxy lassy. A pirate. And you me beauty?" I try to find the right words.
"A-Annabeth Chase."
"Ah~ Well then me little Annie-bell~ You'll be me special little treasure~" I shutter at the thought.
"Get outta here you dumb fox!" A voice shouts and I'm ripped from its grasp. Fritz pushes me behind him and hits it with a pipe.
"Foxy!" The Mangle comes down from the ceiling. Suddenly the robot is a child, with dark gray hair, gray skin, white eyes, light gray clothing, and black tears. He's holding his head in pain.
"Mangle!" He cries and it picks him up. The Mangle disappears in the darkness.
We head back to the office.
"Annabeth! Are you ok? We saw everything." Piper asks worried and I nod.
"I may have an idea." Vincent says with a smirk.
Percy P.O.V
Someone knocks on my box.
"Ye-" I stop once I see Hope with Finian crying in her arm. I open the top of the box wider for them. They climb in with me, Sam and Sam come over.
(Get this, Sam the First is Sam the second's great uncle, except Sam the second is actually Samantha. So to not get them confused she's Sammie.)
They climb into the box as well. We all get situated and just sleep. A little voice whispers in my ears.
