Call me Omega(Percy Jackson fanfic)

Chapter 7

Omega's POV

I wanted to sleep.

I sighed, putting my hands under my head.

I still didn't like the fact that Chaos didn't tell me. I knew I could do nothing about it though. Even if she was at the Fields of Punishment, Earth was a different planet ruled by the gods and never to be controlled by me.

Don't you ever feel like, what if the world is really messed up? What if we could do it all over again for scratch?

I stared up at my hand, wondering if it was the same one from all those years ago.

What happened to me now Annabeth? I thought. How did I start ruling this planet? This army?

I covered my face with both hands.

I would not cry.

I was getting soft. I needed to be strong for the people. For my soldiers.

But my eyes didn't try to hold in the tears like they always did. They just kept flowing, flowing, and flowing till I was sobbing on my bed, not knowing what I was really crying about.

Maybe the helplessness, or the strange feeling of sorrow that had taken over me by suprise.

Alpha's POV

"Why not you go?"

Silena bit her lower lip. "Me?"

"Yeah, you." Ethan said, irritated. "You're good with talk, aren't you?"

She sighed, her shoulders drooping. "I don't think sweet talk would work on Commander Ethan."

"Still. It's not only sweet talk you've been doing over all these centuries."

"... I just can't imagine saying a word to Commander other than "yes sir"."

I fell back into my own thoughts.

Don't bother him Alpha.

I think I was getting what Chaos actually wanted from Commander.

"You can try, can't you?"

I'm not losing a good solider like him.

I clenched my fist. Chaos. He was making Commander into something cold, hard, and inhumane. For him to be Commander. Why? What was his past?

I wanted to ignore Chaos's orders. I wanted to interrogate Commander. I wanted to ask him about every little part of his life, and most especially who he was in the first place- before he was Commander.

I was pretty sure Victor wouldn't tell me anything.

"What do you think Alpha?"

I opened my fist. "Bother him."

"What?"

"Go talk to him, whatever. Ask him."

"I want to know why."

Silena came in, her face as white as a ghost.

"Alpha."

"What did you get from him."

"His eyes...."

"What do you mean."

"He's a son of Posiedon Luke."
