Fallen Protector [Percy Jackson Fanfiction] [In HAITUS]

Chapter 25: Forward

PERCY

"I hate you" I moaned "I really hate you"

"No, you don't" Kronos snorted "Now stop whining, and get your ass up that bed"

"Do I have to?" I whined, burrowing deeper into my bed "I don't want to see them yet"

"You asked for this" Kronos huffed "Stop whining before I carry you out of this cabin while you're still wearing your Finding Dory Pajamas."

"Try me" I huffed

Kronos groaned, and plopped down beside my buried head "Percy, come on. The others are waiting"

"Then let them wait"

"Percy" Kronos warned "Get your ass of this bed before I throw you out, and chain you to the damn meeting table..."

"Okay okay" I sat up, scowling at him

"Don't you dare scowl at me, mister" Kronos chided "I told you of what might happen if you ever do what you planned, but you still proceeded with it. If you are going to point fingers, point it at yourself"

I deflated at that "I'm sorry. It's just that I might snap again, you know. After what happened at the throne room yesterday... I'm feeling really down. I basically told them to fuck off and even ignored them like air..."

I threw my arms around my pillow "I can't do it!" I cried "I was really mean to them yesterday!!"

Kronos sighed "Percy, get up. I won't repeat myself again"

I pouted, but nonetheless stood up and stomped towards the bathroom

"You are such a child" Kronos groaned from behind me

I whirled around and stuck my tongue out at him, before shutting the bathroom door at his face

I sighed under the spray of water, recalling how everything went down

-FLASHBACK-

Everything was silent, all staring at me with wide eyes, new campers recognizing me from the various photos on the Big House. The councilors and the Olympians who still doesn't know that I was alive, was looking at me like I was some kind of exotic artifact that is being presented for the first time; they look at me with a mix of wonder and surprise.

I slowly lowered my hand, and went to squeeze Kronos' arm when he shifted to cover me a bit when the silence continued, taking the quietness as a bad sign

Luke couldn't take it anymore, pushing his Father away who was hugging him tightly "Well...?"

That seemed to snap everyone out of their shock, because the councilors rushed forward, eyes bright with happiness, and arms opened wide for a hug

"PERCY!!"

Oh no.

I could feel my emotions stirring as it sense the people who destroyed my life coming closer.

"Stop" My cold voice echoed inside the throne room, making the councilors halt in their steps, and the Gods freezing from standing up from their thrones "Stay where you are"

"Perce...?" Thalia called hesitantly

"It's Perseus to you, Ms. Grace" I huffed out

Hurt flashed through her eyes, and I waited for the feeling of guilt to eat me out, but it never came. Instead, I felt a sick sense of satisfaction for making her feel like that. A thought coming across my mind that makes me cringe as it whispered to me
