Dream part 2

  I have been running for three weeks now. Wherever I went, I tried to help demigods to camp half-blood, camp Jupiter or the hunters if it was a girl. I would bring the demigod to camp borders and leave them there, running away before the demigod could ask me my name.

  You might ask why I don't just go to mom's apartment. Well, when I got there, I found a note saying:

  Dear Percy,

       Me and Paul have decided to move to somewhere else. You see, I am pregnant and I don't want my child to be involved in the Greek Mythology world. Please try to understand.

                                                                                                                Love, Mom.

    Of course I was upset, but I understood why she did that.                                     

Now I was running from five empousai. I had ran out of ambrosia and my spare sword broke. 

  " Well, well. Look what the hero of Olympus has fallen to. I would enjoy killing you!" the lead empousa snarled. 

  I backed up against the tree, and stared at her with my defeated eyes. " Then do it. I have nothing to live for anyways."

  She leapt at me, going for the kill. I closed my eyes, preparing to die. I waited for the pain to come, prepared for my death. Everything I did, all the monsters I have killed, and yet there would always be more. I'm such a failure. My friends abandoned me. My girlfriends and best friend cheated on me. My father disowned me. My mom didn't want me in her life. Such a failure. 

  But the pain never came. 

  I opened my eyes, to see a man in a black suit dotted with stars, skin darker than the night, with constellations imprinted on his skin like tattoos. Surrounding him was a layer of black dust, and the monsters were gone. I stared at the man in shock.

  " Have you come to kill me? If so, please do it quickly," I said, my voice cracking. 

  The man chuckled. With a smile, he said " No, I have not come to kill you. My name is Chaos, the lord of creation."

  Chaos? I stared at him with my mouth agape. What does the lord of basically everything want to do with me? Percy! Manners! Oh right. I bowed low, not daring to meet his eyes. " Ehh, but why are you here?"

  " Perseus, I am here because I have watched you. You are loyal, brave and true. (anyone see what I did there?) And you are an excellent swordsman. You do not ask for anything for yourself even when you fought in two wars for the gods. So I want you to be my personal assassin and commander of the Chaos Army. Oh, and please rise, I hate it when people bow to me." So I rose.

  But... I'm a failure. 

 " No Perseus, you are not a failure. And yes, I can read minds."

  I blushed. I have nothing left. My friends and family are gone. So I said:

  "Yes."
