The lost hero returns

32. Siblings

Gaea's point of view:

"You failed.. didn't you.." He says with his deep voice that makes my skin crawl.

"You have no idea how strong the boy has become! He is in command of the army of our dear father. He was too powerful." I snap.

"That's no excuse for your failure."

I close my eyes for a moment, and gather all my strength not to yell at him.

"You don't realize that it is not the little boy that dropped his sword in front of you. He is the most powerful demigod you'll ever face. If I could control him.." I say thinking about all the possibilities.

"What would it take?" He asks.

"What?" I ask getting ripped out of my own thoughts.

"What would it take for you to be able to control him?" He asks a little annoyed.

I think about it.

"Not sure.. Father trained him to block me out. But perhaps if the boy was off guard and weak." I say thinking.

Then I know what we need to do.
I look up and into his eyes.

"You have a plan don't you."

"I do.." I tell him smiling. "Brother.. I think it's time for a sibling reunion."

"Do we really need to?" He asks like a little child.

"Do you want to defeat the Olympians and rule the earth once more?" I ask him.

"Of course I do!"

"Then we are going to need their help! You idiot. So quit whining." I tell him.

Percy Jackson will fall.

I will be the one to destroy everything he loves. Make him see his entire world crumble in front of his eyes.

Then when there is nothing left for him to live for... I will let him go.

Death is too merciful.
He will suffer.

No matter what.
