Torturous Betrayal

Chapter 5

I was in shock. They were going to hand me over to Gaia so she could. Cold what? Torture me. That is exactly whet she's going to do. Torture me to the brink of death. Or until I give in. No, I can't give in. If I give in then she wins and I can't let that happen. As long as my friends and family are safe I don't care what happens to me. They don't care either so they won't come looking for me. Well, Nico, Thalia, and Grover might. But as long as nothing happens to them. Athena can play her games. Gaia can do what she wants with me. As long as everyone is safe and happy.

"Okay," I say making sure to remove the emotion from voice. Everyone looked surprised at my answer and at the fact that I was so calm about it. Most people would be screaming in protest or on their knees begging for something, no anything else as punishment. I scanned the room looking from face to face. Analyzing everyone's reactions to my response to my very imminent death. Athena looked furious with me for not begging for mercy or something like that. The Big Three looked confused, as did Apollo. Artemis, Hermes, and Hera all looked surprised. Dionysius looked bored and Hephestus was tinkering with some scrap metal. Thalia was looking at me with a mix of respect and sorrow in her eyes. "I accept this as my fate," I said looking my cousin in the eyes,"And I learned a long time ago not to mess with fate," I finished trying to lighten the mood, but all I got was a weak smile from Thalia and Hestia, who I just noticed sitting off to the side tending to the fire. "One question. When will you be sending me off to Gaia? I asked them. My ex-father responded," We will flash you there as soon as you say your goodbyes." Was all he said. Athena glared at him. She probably wanted to get rid of me right now, but Posieden out ruled her and he had already spoken so there was nothing she could do. "Thank you my lord. I only wish to speak with Thalia Grace," I replied.

In Seperate Room with

Thalia's POV

"Why did you only want to speak with me? I asked my brother in all but blood. "Because I'm trusting you to deliver the rest of my messages to the others. Most of them wouldn't listen me." He sounded sad when he said that last part.

"What are you talking about Perce? Surely Annabeth, at least, would want to tell you goodbye before they ship you off to you doom," I replied confused about what he was talking about. He flinched when I said Annabeth's name ,then smiled bitterly before replying,"Annabeth would be the least likely to listen," his voice cracked on her name. What the Hades was going on?!?! He took a deep breath and said," Annabeth cheated on me," in such a quiet voice that I almost didn't catch it. I can't believe the nerve of that girl! After all Percy did for her. After everything that he went through to make sure that she was as safe as she could be. She dumped him! Next time I see her she won't come out of the infirmary for a week.

"Tell them that I'll miss and that they gave me the greatest experience a person could ask for."

Those were the last words the great Percy Jackson said to me.

I made this chapter longer since the last one was like a single paragraph long. Thanks for reading this is my 1st fanfic and I have over a hundred reads!!! Keep fangirling. Peace out.
