The Light To My Shadows (Sadie Kane x Nico Di Angelo

Welcome To Olympus

???  P.O.V

When the vermillion noise went off I always reacted terribly to the high pitched sound. It didn't matter whether I was in the cafeteria or pulling weeds from the garden. When It came the shrieking tones felt like a pipe bomb went off  between my ears. Other girls at olympus could pick themselves up and shake of the nauseating feeling in their stomachs and the ringing between their ears. For me, Hours would pass before I could begin to piece myself together.

This time should have been no different, but it was.  I didn't see what happened to provoke the punishment, but it felt as if it were directed towards a specific person. We were working so close to the electric fence that I could practically see the volts of electricity surrounding it. Maybe  someone got brave and decided to step out of the gardens bounds, or someone lived all our fantasies and threw a rock at the head of lunar control. That would have been worth it.  The only thing I knew for certain was that the overhead speaker had sounded two warning blares;  One short,one long.

The skin on my neck crawled as I lean forward into the damp dirt. Hands pressed tightly against my ears shoulders tensed as I prepare to take a the hit. The sound that came through the speakers wasn't really a vermillion noise, It wasn't that faint hum you could hear from your computer monitor  while typing. To The Brazilian government and it's department of sly youth, It was the love child of a car alarm and a dental drill loud enough to make your ears bleed. Literally.

The sound shredded every nerve in my body, It forced it s way through my hands roaring over a sea of hundreds of teenage monsters, and settled at the center of my brain. Where I couldn't reach in and rip it out.  The taste of blood and dirt filled my mouth as I tried to escape the sound. Everything else faded out of focus. I felt someone place their hands on my shoulders and shout my name "Nico " but I was too far in to respond. Everything was gone, gone, gone, sinking until it was nothing. Like I was slowly sinking into the ocean, going deeper and deeper.  Shadows and tranquillity.
