Lose Your Mind (percy jackson fanfic)

Chapter 10: Chaos and Comfort

Annabeth's POV

"PERCY!" I yelled, "Poseidon do something!"

Poseidon and I were already at the window, the rest in tow. I could vaguely hear footsteps rushing down the halls but I didn't care.

That kelp head just HAD to jump out a window.

Tears streaked my face as I watched Poseidon try to control the seas but to no use.

Eventually I couldn't even see him. He was too far away. Just when we got him back, he's gone again.

The entire ship was chaos because:

1) He could be killed by a sea monster

2) The closest land was Crete

3) He could be killed by a winged something

4) He could be killed by me when he comes back

5) He could be killed

6) Did I mention HE COULD BE KILLED?!!!!

He was in no fighting condition! He didn't even have Riptide with him!

I remembered the look on his face when he saw us. He had been terrified.

Please don't do this again. His words echoed in my mind. Again.

Why would he think I would hurt him? I had, and would never, hurt him. Would I?

Oh gods...what's happened to my Seaweed Brain?

Percy's POV

I looked at Calypso. When she saw the scar she became silent. But even in the silence I wanted to cover my ears. Block out her words.

No...not Calypso's. No, Calypso is nice.

I wanted to block out her words.

Hero. Hero. Never loved me. Never truly loved me. Hero. Loved being the hero. Hero.

"Get out." I mumbled.

"What?" Calypso asked, slightly shocked.

"No, not you. Her. I don't want you out. You are nice." I said. She looked at me concerned.

I listened to her words. She was right of course. I am the hero. That's all I ever was. Just a hero, too blinded by the glory to see how much I hurt them.

I felt Calypso rub my back reassuringly.

I didn't deserve her comfort. I didn't deserve her. I was a monster. I hurt her. I left her, knowing full well that she loved me.

And then I didn't even think about her afterwards. She's still her, stuck on this island.

I hurt her.

Eventually I drifted off into sleep.

"Perseus..." I flinched at the full name. I looked up to see I was in the Argo II. The person who said my name...Poseidon.

"What a disgrace." He said calmly, "You're scared of your friends...you are nothing. Nothing anymore. Just a disgrace."

He stepped aside and I saw Calypso walk up.

"Why am I even helping you at this point? After what you did you think I would of-no, should of left you to wallow in your insanity. You broke my heart Perseus. Then again....Im not the only one." She smiled evilly at me.

"Oh Perseus. Poor, sweet little Perseus." I paled. It was her. Annabeth.

"Up to your old games again...aren't  you?" She said smiling, getting closer with every word. I wanted to run, to hide.

But I couldn't. Because deep down inside of me, I knew that I deserved what was coming.

She brushed my cheek with her hand lightly. She leaned in for a kiss and I happily kissed back.

When we pulled apart she looked at me.

"Oh Perseus." I flinched back, "Always up to your old games. Aren't you."

Then everything faded away. And there was nothing. Nothing except pain.

It was as if I was bathing in the Styx again. I was tempted to scream, to cry, but I didn't.

Something in me knew how much I deserved this pain.

Because I only hurt the people I know. There is no 'nice' people left. Only those who hurt and those who are too afraid, too weak, to stop them.

Gaea's POV

I smiled as I watched the boy wither in his sleep. Soon the full effect of my plan would fall into motion.

Soon.
