Static- Michael Vey / Percy Jackson Crossover

Chapter 6 (Broken)

Taylor's Pov

I laid in Tara's old bed, traumatized, confused, sad, terrified, and broken. All the bad stuff.

I knew Tara was trying to make me feel better with her powers, but honestly, it just made it worse.

"It was s-so..." I mumbled.

"Shhh," Tara said. "It's okay, Taylor."

"N-no, I'm alr-right." I said, but we all knew I wasn't. However, I still needed to tell them what had gone through that boy's head.

I swallowed, then started to explain. "H-his name is Percy Achilles Jackson. He was born in New York, raised in New York, and went to a summer camp in New York." I told Tara and the others that were standing around my bed.

"For some reason, when I looked through his memories, there was this weird kind of mist or fog that was covering a lot of it, starting when he was 12, so I couldn't see exactly what happened. But I know this: His dad, who he never met, died before he was old enough to remember. He had a loving mother, but not a lot of friends at school, except for this guy named Grover. Grover brought him to a summer camp on Long Island when he was 12 years old. There, he got a girlfriend, who's name is Annabeth, and they loved each other." I paused to take a breath.

Jack snickered. "Who would ever love a guy like that?"

"Then there was a bunch of clouded stuff, and he met Thalia, Nico, Jason Piper, Leo, Frank, Hazel, and Calypso from other summer camps, and they became best friends." I paused again, trying to recall what I saw. "There was more clouded stuff......and then...he went to hell."

"Hell? Did he die and come back to life?" Abi asked.

"No....." I said, struggling to remember. "He didn't die. For a few days, he was just in hell."

"Taylor," Tara said. "Maybe you should just get some sleep."

"NO!!" I yelled. Then I caught myself. "Sorry, it's just, I saw him there. I felt it. It hurt so bad, and I was so emotionally broken." I shuddered. "Eventually, he made it out of there. But then....a few weeks after that...there was some sort of weird earthquake -I don't know what it was- but it killed everyone. All of them, except Percy."

They all stood there in silence.

Jack looked like he was thinking about something deep, but eventually he spoke up. "Who would name their kid Calypso?"

McKenna looked at him, annoyed. "That's all you have to say after hearing some guy's life story?"

Jack shrugged. Osten spoke up. "Calypso was the name of a goddess-nymph in Greek Mythology that was forced to live on the island Ogygia because she betrayed the Gods and sided with her father, Atlas, in the Titan War." Osten explained. "It's also a town in North Carolina. I guess Percy's friend could've been named after either one."

"So, he's a good guy," Abi concluded. "He's just....traumatized. Everyone else sighed with relief.

"No, he's not." I said.

"What do you mean?" Michael asked.

"At the end, before I broke off, I saw making a deal with Hatch. I'm not sure what they said, because that's when I stopped going through his memories, but any deal with Hatch is 100% evil."

"I say we go ask interrogate him, and ask him about that. If he proves he's a good person, we can let him free." Michael said. "Everyone okay with that?"

Everyone else mumbled agreement.

"Hey, you guys...." Quentin said anxiously as he walked into the room. "Your prisoner escaped."
