Percy's POV

I snapped my head to the direction of the voice.

Is that... Madelyn?

What on Earth is she doing ?

"Madelyn?"

-----------------

Des's POV

I turned to see a skinny girl, about 5 ft 5, she had dark red velvet hair with streaks of light hazel brown hair , perfectly highlighting her dark brown eyes.

Her hair was pulled back into a high ponytail, showing her beautiful facial features. She was wearing a white lace top and a pair of blue ripped skinny jeans. Her combat boots were hazel and her complete outfit gave a look of strong determination and almost extreme superiorness.

She had a scowl on her face , and spat venom in every word she said.

I looked at Percy, he seemed confused too . I was too shocked to react.

But the poison started to set in. My throat swelled up, making it harder and harder to swallow or breathe. My eyes turn glossy and I felt weight landing on my chest and shoulders.

My knees felt weak, my heart found it harder to pound against my chest and I opened mouth to let some air in , but couldn't swallow it down. My throat kept on swelling , suffocating me.

I have cried everyday in my life but that was because of self-pity, this time it was because of hope. I should have never believed that I had any chance of even the slightest bit of happiness. Not yesterday, not today, not tomorrow and never.

I looked back at Percy, he was still so confused. Yet, no matter how hard I try, I couldn't stop having a glimpse of hope that these were lies.

I shouldn't had have that hope. He muttered , " Madelyn?"

The world crashed down on me again , and I released his shirt, making him transfer his attention towards me. He suddenly realized my current emotion and gently placed his hand on my arms, his eyes becoming glossy too.

I covered my mouth with my hands to avoid the sound of sobs from escaping from my mouth. I pushed his hands away while taking a few steps back, shaking my head.

I was going to cry.

But I couldn't ,not on front of him , of her, of everyone.

So I did what I did best.

I ran.

I slammed the cafeteria doors opened and rushed through the halls. The gush of wind flew through my hair, reminding me of how cruel and cold this place is.

The moment I was out of the school, I just closed my eyes and kept on running. I didn't care where I was, where I was going and what was going to happen to me.

Until I heard a familiar voice , definitely not Percy's though.

" Destiny! Oh dear! Thank goodness I found you! You left your bracelet here last week! My, what happened dear?"

It was Mdm. Piws. The nice librarian. I was in the library where he and I first met.

I just took the bracelet and walked to corner of the huge library after giving a silent thank you.

I hugged myself at the corner, mumbling to myself, " Never have hope."

A shadow landed upon me and I looked up to see Percy.

" I can explain ....... please...."

I just looked away and placed my head on my knees. A sniffle came out. I felt a warm hand touch my back but I pushed it away. He never cared about me, I was just a minor piece of his game. The one that needed to be sacrificed in order to win.

" Madelyn is -"
