Human Within - Percy Jackson Story

Explanation

When Firefly pushed Fred to the hospital someone was already there.

"I need you to leave, Firefly. " Cosmo was leaning on The wall next to the door. His hands were crossed. Firefly looked at him suprised but she obligated. She shaked his shoulder and left.

Cosmo caught his wheelchair and pushed him to Bed. Fred rolled into his place with a little help from Cosmo.

He sat on a chair and looked at The ground. Fred could no longer withstand growing tension.

"Spill it out, Cosmo."

But Cosmo did not spoke up.

"You know, I was afraid of my death. I always had this feeling that when I will meet people that died when I could not save them I will just crash and cry. That despite The fact they forgave me and forgave myself it will be too much seeing them again. But I was wrong. When I saw Firefly on battlefield. When I saw someone I considered a brother to me. I was happy to see them again. To see them doing something that helps people. And that they seem happy about The place They are in right now."

At The end of this Cosmo was looking at him.

"I..." He started. "I remember what you said." Fred at first didn't know what he said to him, but then it hit him he wasn't talking about today. He was talking about something that happened three years ago for Fred. About forty for him." At First I had a problem with forgiving myself. I knew that they forgave me but I couldn't forgave myself. It wasn't easier when I meet my fromer friends here. I actually didn't told them that it was me for long time. But Then I started working on myself. To be better to be in Black Squad. My plain didn't exactly including becoming A commander but it happened. I also made peace with them and we became a friends. Even A family. And I was good for a long time. Never been happier. But then I heard your name. You told your story. And I can not said it didn't affected me. Because it show that maybe I wasn't wrong trying to destroy gods."

Wow. Fred did not expected that. He expected anything but not that.

"Well... First of all I am touched you Care for me so much..."

"Fred..."

"Okey, okey, I will be serious." Fred sighed. " I had forgiven gods..."

"Because of your fatal flaw." He cut in.

"...well yes but actually no." Percy hide his head in hands. "Because I believe in second chance."

Cosmo turned away. He understood that reference.

"But I didn't forgot. And I wanted to say that even if this hurt the right thing to do it not seeking for revenge. Gods are not The best leaders and they do A lot of mess especially with their children but Kronos would be worse. Most of them would be worse. And gods are making improvement. I wished for them to claim their children on Time. To give minor gods their cabins. They are better."

"They believed you are A traitor and banished you from Green World!"

"And this is mistake they will regret one Day." Said Fred.

"Percy..."

"It's Fred." He immediately told.

"You see! You are still hurt by this!"

"Of course I am. But I want to move on. And had a happy after life helping people with the people the I care about. And they are not there in The camp. They are here." Said Fred smiling at Cosmo.

"Bro..."

Fred lifted his fist and Cosmo bumped it.

"So are we Good now?" Asked Fred.

"I need the time to move on but I will be."
