°The Princess and The Peasant° Leo X Calypso

°Calypso°

When we walked inside, we knew we had to hurry. Im already about to cry because of the freezing, I can't imagine how much pain Leo is in right now if he's been in here for so long.

At first, its empty. Then we see something. A trail.

Of frozen blood. We gasp, and follow it to the other side of the room.

I almost throw up at what I see.

Leo is there, sitting there, hugging his knees. His hair has ice and frost all in it, his skin is a pale blue, he has tons of cuts and bruises, and he has dried blood and tears on him. He is shivering immensely. We all run over to him quickly. He is awake, but barely. His eyes seem to be fighting to stay open.

Jason picks him up and gasps. "What the hell, he's so light!"

"I know! That doesn't matter right now, he's dying!" I shriek, and he nods, running towards the exit. We're stopped by Octavian.

"Now, where do you think you're going?" He glares.

"We're leaving, and taking Leo to a hospital!" Will growls.

"Im sorry, I can't let you do that." He smiles. "I haven't finished making him suffee yet."

"SHUT UP! WE'RE LEAVING!" I scream, and attack him. I jump on his back and start to do whatever I can to hurt him. Whether it's slapping him, my scratching him, or whatever.

"Arggh!" He growls, stumbling around. I jump off his back, and Percy runs up and knocks him on the head with a giant peice of ice. He falls to the ground,  not moving.

"Is he dead..?" Frank asks.

"I don't know, but we're not sticking around to find out!" I run out snd everyone follows.

We stop when we realize;

Where's the exit? There was no exit in any of the rooms, so it has to be back there.

"New plan! Go back in and find the exit!" I shout, and we all run back in. We run to the back and see a door.

That has to be it!" I open it, and behold!

Another hallway.

I groan, and check inside each of the rooms. The first is a bathroom, the second is a bedroom, the third is a bedroom, the fourth is kitchen, and the fifth is a security room.

"Okay, the exit must be in here!" I gesture to the security room.

I open the door, but there are more people inside. The look at me for a split second, then attack.

After a minute of dodging and hitting, they're finally down. We run to the exit and shoot outside. It was still relatively cold outside, so none of the ice on his body or any of the frost bite went away.

We went to the hospital as fast as possible, and when we came in, they took him to the emergency room quickly.

We all sat in the waiting room, waiting impatiently.

"Ohmygodsohmygodsohmygods." Travis and Connor kept mumbling.

"Calm down! It's gonna be fine, we're gonna be fine, he's gonna be fine!" I try to reassure him, but I wasn't even sure myself.

About half an hour later, Apollo comes out.

"Bad news or good news?" He sighs.

"Good news..?" I ask.

"Well, he's not dead." He smiles nervously.

"Bad news?!" I squeal.

"He's almost dead." He frowns.

"IS HE GONNA DIE?!" I scream.

"No!" Then he mumbles something. "Anyways, he has major frost-bite. We managed to melt the frozen blood and ice by just getting him neae heat, so we cleaned that up. We cannot stitch him up however.."

"Why not?!" I ask.

"Because some of his organs are frozen and infected." He frowns deeply. "He will need surgery and will need some organs removed."

"Oh my gods..! What organs?!" I screech

"Er.. Some of his intestines.. That's it..?" He mumbles.

"Oh, alright.." I sigh in relief.  "How long until we can see him?" I ask.

"Well, we have to do the surgery in a few minutes. You can see him tomorrow." He says. We all nod.

We all go home and wait for the next day to hurry.
