Escape from the Isle

You sure have changed

~Percy~

We were killing time before having to go face Uma.

So I decided to visit Mom's old 'castle'

The villains were out, didn't know where but it left me to explore.

I sighed as I looked around quietly.

I hugged my arms. I honestly didn't think we could pull this off.

"Well well" a voice said from behind me.

I sighed

"Is that just how you greet people now Harry?" I asked, not turning, "ever heard of a hello?"

"Where's the fun in that?" He asked. Footsteps behind me indicated that he was walking closer.

I sighed and turned

"What do you want?" I asked

"What are you doing here?" He asked

"I'm making things right with my sister, I'm saving my-"

"That's not what I meant. I meant here" Harry said, gesturing around the empty room

"Oh." I said

He looked at me expectantly

"I don't have to tell you anything Harry" I said coldly

"What happened to you?" He asked, crossing his arms

"What do you mean?"

"You weren't always this cold to me" he said

"Yeah well that was before you kidnapped me, tied me up, and kissed me against my will" I stated

"The kidnapping and tying you up thing was Uma's plan. The kissing you was for fun" Harry said, taking a step closer

"Glad to know that's what I'm worth to you" I said, rolling my eyes

"You know that's not-"

"So what are you doing here?" I interrupted, "shouldn't you be somewhere with Uma, catering to her every whim?"

"Uma asked me to leave. Wanted to have a little chat with your boyfriend. So I'm just going around... Looting" he stated

"Looting? From the three worst villains on the isle. Really?" I asked

"Believe it or not love" Harry said, looking vaguely at his hook

"Why do you still carry that thing around?" I asked

"Because it reminds me of my father. Of everything I want to be" he said

"Really? So you want to be a pillaging, pilfering pirate who never had the courage to go after anyone other than a teenage, if that, boy for the rest of your life?" I asked

He looked at me in slight surprise

"You sure have changed.." he said

"Yes. I have" I said

"It's nice that you're finally out of your shell.." he said softly, "it's bringing out sides of you that I haven't seen in... A very long time"

"I don't know what you mean.." I said, looking away.

"Yes you do" he said

"Look, Harry... I know I should've said something to you before I left but you have to understand. I wasn't even told until the last minute." I said, "and I didn't have a choice. Mom told us then shipped us off not an hour later"

"And I had to find out after two weeks of silence from you" Harry said.

"Harry you know I would have tried to see you if I could but I couldn't. And it's in the past now. All of it." I said, "you have to understand that... And move on"

Harry began to silently move closer to me. I took a few steps back until my back hit a wall.

He hovered over me silently, his eyes boring into mine.

He took his hook and gently moved it from my ear to my chin.

"I won't ever move on from you.." he mumbled.

He pushed the wall to push himself back from me.

He gave me one last glance before turning and walking out the door without another word.

I looked down and sighed

"Percy!" A voice interrupted my thoughts. Carlos ran up to me, "there you are"

"Carlos" I said, looking at him.

"What are you doing here?" He asked, looking around

"Just... Remembering" I said

"Oh... Well it's time" he said.

I nodded and followed him out

Hey guys! I'm sorry for not posting in this book for a while but I am now!

I'm going to try and finish it and once I do I'm thinking of writing a prequel to show what happened before the first one. To show the history between Harry and Percy and things like that.

I don't know whether I'll write a book for the third one. But I'll let you know if I decide to.

Please comment whether I should do a prequel and I definitely might do it.

I'm done wasting your time now so go back to your lives and the next chapter will be out soon.

Bye!

In loving memory of Cameron Boyce. Heaven has gained another angel.
