I woke up with a splitting headache and foggy memories of what happened. I only remembered dipping into the river of fire. Frowning I surveyed my surroundings. The room I was in was dark after my eyes adjusted I started taking notes of even the tiniest detail as of how there was a 5 cm crack near the ceiling. I was chained to a wall spread eagle style with my chest exposed and in nothing but my boxers. The chains were made of something I don't recognize. Neither celestial bronze or Imperial gold, not even Olympic silver. Interesting, I mused. Soon enough footsteps echoed into the room. Straining my ear I tried to pick up everything. It seems as the person approaching was heavy or gigantic, takes long strides, and had light breathing. Reminding me of someone. Scowling, I realized who it was. Fucking Kronos. Well, I am in deep shit. Although his impatience got him in the end and ruined his whole rule the world shenanigan, he is quite a smart titan compared to the rest of his brethren. The only thing that needs improvement was clearly his patience. Looks like I have to face it head-on. I can't fake unconsciousness as he will just see through it. A pity really. And so I relax and wiped all emotions from my face and waited. Luckily for me, I did not have to wait for long as the door opened and low and behold the titan himself appeared.

"It seems as you are awake good, good." He chuckled.

"Indeed, I am awake. So what now Kronos." I asked head tilted. Curious as of what he is going to do. Good old fashion torture?

"Torture you of course." He replied smiling.

"Going old style? Fitting I suppose for an old man." I said returning the smile. Which promptly made him lose him and he leaped at me. Slamming me against the wall. Oh my, there goes my ribs, I thought sarcastically and rolled my eyes. And rolled them again after hearing what he said

"Listen here demigod," he snarled stressing and pitting out the word demigod, "Here I am the person in charge and I dislike any disrespect shown towards me. Have I made myself clear?"

Mhmm. What a bore. A boring speech from a boring man or titan I suppose in this case.

"Yeah, yeah, whatever floats your boat dear," I replied voice dripping in sarcasm. This seems to be a bad idea as Kronos' eyes flared in anger. Growling he smashed my body repeatedly to the wall. Poor wall had to be abused. Interestingly enough, I sensed in my body that contrary to what suppose to happen my body remained fine even after the onslaught of slams. Odd. Was this the result of dipping in the river of fire? Though it seems as my skin still tears, not by much but it still tears. Hmmm. I filed that thought away for later pondering as I felt that my body stopped being slammed.

"Ah? You stopped?" I asked taken aback.

"You weren't screaming." He muttered angrily. Which send me over the edge as I started laughing. Before yelping in pain as my ribs although not broke it still is sore. From the number of slams, Kronos did. I looked at him lazily and smirked.

"If you want me to feel pain, you have to fo worse than what yad happened." I drawled. Bored already. Damn it Kronos, here I thought if I were getting tortured at least it would be fun or interesting. What a waste of time. I suppose I could escape....but that won't is fun either. And I still don't know where I am. Ugh. At least the plus side I get fed, right? Please be true I am flipping hungry right now.

"Oi, Kronos you got any food? I am starvin' here." I asked with a southern accent. Don't ask why. I just did. Which seemed to anger him as his eyes twitched.

"What? I haven't eaten in days dude." I asked with a tone that is usually used with friends. And it seems as Kronos knows of it too which led him to be even more confused.

"Well? You gonna feed me or not?" I asked. "The human body cant lasts long without food and water might as well throw that in." Grinning lazily as I watched him gawk at me. Before scowling and snapping his finger which brought in a cyclops holding a food tray and left the room. I stared at him for a long time. Which irked him

"What?" He asked annoyed. I rolled my eyes and raised as much as I could, which is not much. I look pointedly at my chained hands.

"Ah." He said before chanting something under his breath that morphed the chains to give me a bit more freedom. Immediately I snatched the food tray and start gobbling it up not caring whatever the food was as I was too hungry to care really. Can't be that bad. Worst-case scenario my memory gets wiped. He wouldn't dare kill me as, after all, he hadn't started torturing me yet. Which I took advantage of. Asking for seconds after I wolfed down the first. And the cycle repeats until I laid back my stomach bloated with the amount of food I consumed. Burping in content. Settling comfortably against the cold wall. Which was rudely disrupted by a certain titan much to my dismay. I glared at him as the chains morphed back to its original shape. Once again I was in a spread eagle style much to my annoyance. I look at him in a deadpan face. Before flipping him off and settled back to the wall. It's going to take a while so why not lay back and relax for a while. After all, I won't have to deal with a bunch of annoying, pesky monsters chasing me all the damn time. And with that, I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

End

"I am not hungry but I am bored. Therefore, I shall eat."
