Percy's eyes flickered close as she fell asleep.
I can't believe what she told me.
Well I can. It's just that she never told us.
We could help her. She probably thought we would make fun of her, I mused stepping out into the hallway.
I better go talk to Chiron as well.
Walking out of the cabin I got several stares as I made my way to the Big House.
Knocking Mr. D opened the door. "Hello Alpha. What do we owe the pleasure?" Wow.
It takes being more powerful than the guy for him to get your name right. Who knew?
"Is Chiron here? I need to speak with him."
"Yes. He is in a councilors meeting. You can go in." He stepped aside.
I walked to the meeting room, crowded due to the fact it wasn't just twelve cabins anymore.
"One of the Elite attacked Dakota. We just can't let them go unpunished." Annabeth said glaring at anyone who dared challenge her.
"Annabeth my dear. Perhaps it was someone else." Chiron tried to calm her.
"Who else doesn't like Dakota?" She added causing several people to lift a finger. Barely noticeable.
"No Chiron she is right. I knocked him out." I said walking in.
"Why would you do such a thing?" Chiron was scandalized.
"I don't know maybe because he tied Omega to a tree and broke her wings and arm?" I defended myself.
"That is how that occurred? All Stellar and Fletch would tell me is that she was injured."
"Yeah. And trust me when I say that kid is going to be in trouble."
Chiron simply nodded while Annabeth looked outraged.
But she was silenced by Clarisse who shook her head.
"I will be practicing in the arena if you need me." I walked out of the meeting room. Stepping over the trip wire my brothers placed.
They work fast.
I need to talk to Percy later. I need to ask her something.
Once in the arena I grabbed a spear and started attacking a dummy.
"What it ever do to you?" I turned towards the voices owner to see a blonde teen wearing golden glasses.
"Who are you?" I asked. I've never seen this kid before.
Although it's possible he came after I died.
But wasn't there a blonde glasses wearing son of Jupiter that was part of the Seven?
"Jason Grace. Son of Jupiter. Who are you? And what's with the mask?"
"Alpha. Second in command of the Army of Chaos. The mask is so I can hide my identity."
"Oh. So do you want to spar?"
"Sure." But we were unable to spar as the conch blew three times. An attack.
And Percy is out of action.
"Let's go." I hit my bracelet and my armor unfolded around me.
I ran to the border of the camp where we could see a hundred monsters.
The Minotaur made an appearance. As did a drakon. And empousai. And some hellhounds.
Oh and are those some skeleton warriors? That's nice.
"Stellar, Angel! You work with the Hunters! Fletch, Arrow! Apollo cabin! Fury, empousai! Forge and Siren help where needed!" I commanded before jumping into the fray.
I cut through a hellhound before turning to behead a demon cheerleader.
I like that name. A lot easier to write in mission reports.
Arrows rained down killing several dozen monsters.
"Hey buddy. How you doing?" I asked the Minotaur who charged at me.
Rolling to the side I stabbed him through the heart.
The skeleton warriors weren't going down easy.
Bianca the skeletons.
On it.
The shadows darkened spitting out Bianca who started cutting down the undead warriors with ease.
Her brother rushed over and started helping.
Within ten minutes the monsters were decimated.
"That was awesome dude." Jason was next to me.
"Yeah. You should see Omega. But unfortunately she was injured."
"What happened?" He asked.
"Dakota," I growled.
"Most of us hate him. He blamed Percy of stuff and faked an attack." That's what happened but they still believed him.
"Did you believe him?"
"Yeah. I'm ashamed to say it. We believed him over our own friend." He looked down.
"I better go check on Omega before she hurts herself." I broke away from the awkward silence and headed back to the Chaos cabin.
"Who are you?" I could hear Nico ask Bianca.
"I can't say without permission." She walked over to me.
"Checking on Omega?" She asked. I nodded.
"How is she?" I started to talk but stopped myself.
She asked me not to tell.
"Good." I glanced over at her. "Bring Nico to the cabin. You can ask Omega for permission."
"How dare you boy!" Zoë yelled at Dakota. I wonder if anyone would object to me murdering him.
"How dare thee insult Lady Artemis! Hath thee no respect?!" Great. She's slipping into Old English again.
"Stellar. Let him be. That's an order." I barked causing her to stalk over.
"Sorry Alpha."
I shook my head and hurried to our cabin.
When I arrived I saw no one but I heard muffled sobbing.
I walked to Percy's door and knocked gently, "Percy?"
I heard something being thrown and a drawer being slammed.
"Percy?! Open the door!" I don't know what's going on but I have a bad feeling in my gut.
"One minute!" She yelled at me. Another slam.
Warning: Mentions of self harm ahead
"Chaos! Open the door!" I yelled into the air. The lock clicked open to show Percy wrapping a bandage around her left arm.
I guess her right arm is healed, she does have an incredibly fast healing factor.
It can take just under-
Wait. Is that blood?!
Blood stained the area around her feet and it was seeping through the bandage.
"Percy." My eyes widened. She looked down with tears in her eyes. Why would she do this?
"I'm sorry." She sniffed.
"Why? Why would you do this to yourself?" When I said I had to make sure she wouldn't hurt herself I meant falling or something. Not cutting.
She shook her head. I sighed.
"Okay you need to sit down." I pushed her onto her bed.
I noticed a drawer sticking out and I opened it. Finding a knife with some fresh blood on it.
Oh Percy.
I took the knife and threw it out into the hall. It ended up sticking out of the wall.
"Are there any others?!" I demanded. She shook her head but her eyes drifted to the next drawer.
I opened it to find a clean knife. I sighed, why?
I threw it out as well before turning to Percy.
"Okay. You are going to explain this to me. And then I'm going to figure out what to do."
There you guys go.
And I have a major headache so my mom let me stay home today.
Not like we do anything on the last day of school anyway.
Except clean out lockers which I did yesterday.
Now all I have to do is clean my room and help plant the garden.
See you guys later.
