Haunted (Percy Jackson fanfic)

Chapter 2

     Alright, I woke up, nothing wrong, right? So I wake up this morning and my cabin was cleaner than it was when I fell asleep. I looked around until I walked into my bathroom, and I jumped in shock. Right by my sink, there were pills out, and writing on the mirror. Kill yourself. I was honestly confused, who would do this? I took a picture of it on my new monster proof phone. I threw the pills in the garbage and washed the marker off of the mirror. Who would do this?

      I showered, and when I was getting dressed, I saw something on my back. I looked in the mirror and I stood, petrified. On my back was a note of some kind. I struggled to read it backwards.

      I will get my revenge

     It was tattooed as well. What happened while I was asleep? Who would do this? I threw my shirt on and walked out of my cabin. Thoughts raced my mind like a stampede. Who would do this and why? What do they have against me?

     "Hey seaweed brain." Annabeth said, kissing my cheek. My mind turned off and I smiled at her. She was so beautiful.

     "Hey wise girl." I said and grabbed her hand. We walked over to the pavilion for breakfast.

     "What's troubling you? You are usually more talkative." Annabeth stated, proving her point. I blushed and looked down, rubbing my neck, I remembered the tattoo and put my arm down.

     "It's not important. Just a dream." I said and instantly thought of the song lyrics to 'just a dream'. Don't judge, I listen to music in my spare time.

      "You suck at lying seaweed brain. You should tell me before I find out and get mad." Annabeth smirked. I debated if I should tell her. She would go on a whole investigation until she finds out. It could just be nothing. "Percy, please?" Annabeth pleaded after my silence.

     "I'll tell you if whatever is bugging me continues, okay? It's not a big deal at the moment." I smiled at her. Her face scrunched up in confusion.

    "Is someone bullying you? Or dreams? Or what? Just tell me!" Annabeth complained and I smiled at her. I'm glad that she cares so much.

     "No, none of those." I chuckled. Annabeth continued to ask until we reached the pavilion, where we went our separate ways.

     I sat at my table and tossed my food around my plate. I wasn't really hungry, maybe what happened this morning is really getting to me. But why would I be so offended? It's not the first person to tell me to kill myself.  But no one in camp did.. only Gabe and monsters (although I would add Gabe to monsters group) and other evil deities. I felt something touch neck, it was a blade I think. No one was by me though, I was alone. I reached my hand to the invisible blade and there was nothing there. I shrugged and stood up, throwing out my food.

     When I was walking out, everything fell silent. It was quite comical. You know how in fighting movies and the bad guy is winning and everyone is watching in anticipation because they've never seen the movie before? Yeah, this is how they were staring at me like. I guess I never leave first, but this being their reaction when I do. I heard people begin to murmur about this so I walked out.

     I walked over to the beach as sat on the shore. I honestly didn't feel like swimming and accidentally show of the revenge tattoo that just appeared there. I laid down and closed my eyes, avoiding going to sleep, although I couldn't fall asleep anyways. 

     "Alright seaweed brain, whatever's getting to you is seriously getting to you." Annabeth said pointedly. She sat down in front of me. Maybe I should tell her, but I don't even know what's going on anymore.

     "It- It's fine." I stampeded nervously, and I knew that she knew that I was lying. Dam I need to work on my lying skills. I couldn't help but hide a smirk at the joke in my head. Annabeth luckily didn't notice.

     "Stop lying, what's a relationship with no trust, right?" She asked and my eyes widened.

   "Are you threatening to break up with me if I don't tell you?" I asked in shock. Annabeth had a stern look on her face. Was she seriously doing this? Should I test her though?

    "Maybe I am, maybe I'm not. Get your seaweed brain to figure it out." Annabeth mocked. Wow, why is she being so cruel. I looked at her in confusion and wonder. I've never seen her like this. Maybe she just wanted an excuse to break up with me?

     "And now you are calling me dumb? What's gotten into you wise girl?" I asked in wonder. This didn't seem like her, she was meaner, she stood to slack for her to be her. Maybe she was being possessed or something.

"Maybe I've never liked you, did that even come across your mind?" She scoffed. Annabeth doesn't scoff. I decided to walk away, if she wasn't really herself, she would eventually come to me acting all normal.
