Tori
I find Erika after we get to camp actually, she was at Zues's fist, with a knife at her chest, ready to commit suicide.
"WHOA!!!! Whoa whoa whoa! Erika, cut it out!" I said. Bad choice of words.
She turned here head towards me, and I could see she was crying. I ran closer to her.
"Erika, look" I said,"Suicide isn't going to fix your problems, okay? I guarantee it won't"
She put the knife down, and I let her cry in my arms.
"I know, it's hard" I told her.
"How could you know what it's like to murder your sister?" She asked in tears.
"It wasn't your fault, Erika," I assured her,"It was Gaea's"
"Why wasn't she affected by the spell by the way?" I asked.
"The spell only works one time per person," she explained,"Veronica's already had her turn"
I decided not to ask her about it, for less heartaches.
"I was 8" she said, apparently ready to explain,"Veronica was 10, by then, we were already with Gaea. The weapons are actually part of the curse, phase 2, by the way. Gaea was so mad at us, she blew the cursing dust on Veronica, and immediately, she started...acting up"
"What happened?" I asked.
"She started punching me at first, kicking, that sort of thing, then the weapons came," she said,"the curse connects to your personality, and she was pretty clumsy at 10, so she barely missed" Erika took off her red over jacket to reveal a scar on her arm.
"Ouch!" I said.
"Yeah, eventually, dad stepped in, and stopped the curse before anything else happened. Gaea was gone. We worried for weeks" she explained.
"Why didn't he help this time?" I asked.
"I thought the same thing, and I have no idea" Erika said.
"Oh"
"Yeah, tough life for an 8 year old to go through that, huh?" She asked.
"I bet" I said.
I'm so sorry! I'm terrible with endings!
