Heroes Know When to sacrifice

No Lies

 Ok, guys, it's a little insane that so many people have looked at my story. Thank you to 'DuneDoodles' for your support and I hope you all are having a good day. I'm open to suggestions for the plot, but I already have an idea I really like, so no promises. My idea is really complicated, so if there are things happening here that contradicts what I already wrote, I apologize but I feel it is necessary for the story. Also, I know Meg doesn't say much as a character, but one of her best friends is about to die, so please don't hate me.

I would like to thank '1967HogwartsGoddess' for the amazing review I received. And I just want you to know that this author inspired me a lot with her story called 'Falling For You' and the encouragement I received from this amazing person. I suggest looking at the stories by this author, they are amazing. (2 so far) Plus, it will give you something to read while I try and actually finish this. 

Ok, back to the story, I hope you all like it. And BTW, I thought it was time for one of Rick's famous haikus. (don't expect a lot more)

Don't Lie About This.

I Know It Looks Really Bad,

The Doctors Won't Win.

Third-person POV

"What are you talking about? You're not going to die. Don't talk like that!" Meg started, gripping his wrist so hard as to cut off circulation. "You can't die, you're a god, they're immortal," she stated, not knowing that she was echoing the thought of Jason from their escape.

"Rule number one," Apollo continued, leaning himself on a nearby rock, not willing to meet Meg's gaze. "There are no lies allowed, no matter how much you want it to be true. I am-was the god of truth after all."

"Apollo stop! You're delusional, the medics are going to be here soon, you're going to be fine!" Meg shouted at the former god. The rest of the group reluctantly nodded their heads to Apollo's requests, also not wanting to meet Meg's gaze. Meg caught on to their actions and glared daggers at the tops of their heads. "Stop ignoring me! He's not dying! Stop lying to me!" she growled, but the pleading tone betrayed her hostile and fearful eyes.

"Meg, please, it's his time. He needs you to let go."Piper pleaded to the twelve-year-old. But Meg just shook her head.

"No! He's not dying! Not like this!" she looked to Crest for agreement, but the pandos just looked down and shook his head. Meg looked to Apollo to back her up. "Apollo, please, tell me you're going to be alright."

"Apollo shrugged, almost saying "Don't ask me, I'm just the former god of healing" but the action caused him to wince in pain. "Rule number one Meg, I'm sorry."

"Why would you even do a thing like that? Spite?" Meg questioned angrily.

Apollo finally met her eyes. "Medea was going to kill all four of you. Caligula wants people to mean what they say. He also needed me alive. It was my only bargaining chip..." and he had the nerve to make a painful grin. "Never thought it would hurt so much."

"Never thought it would hurt you that much? What about us Apollo? Did you even think about how much you mean to people?" she slapped his shoulder, got up and spoke. "Did you even think about how much this would hurt me?" Apollo looked away from her.

"I did it for you," he whispered. Meg reeled on him.

"I'm your master, right? You have to do what I say right?" she waited until he nodded his head. "Then I order you to keep breathing until the doctors find a way to fix you!" Apollo flinched but said nothing.
