Broken Beyond Repair

Thirty-One

Percy grinned when Luke asked that. "Well, I did get some cool new tricks since you last saw me." He stated. "Oh, yeah right, you're a champion if Hera and Hestia now right?" Luke recalled, and Percy nodded in confirmation. He stood between the duo, grabbing them by the shoulders and concentrated on Camp Half-blood, his old home, a place that was no longer as safe as it once was, a place where his sister's were in danger, a danger he caused. Percy couldn't help but blame himself for all that has happened, though living with the Hunters has made his life better and more fun, he still couldn't help but feel that if he hadn't been born, non of this would have happened. Then Thalia could have taken his place, had she been awakened, if not her then maybe Nico. Maybe if he wasn't alive Gaea wouldn't have risen and Craig wouldn't have gotten mad and his friends wouldn't be possessed. He wouldn't have had to go asking for death from Gods. Percy just didn't know what to think any more.

As the flames disappeared a clashing if swords could be heard, the battle has begun.

Thalia was tired. She didn't know how long she was fighting for. Trying her best to fight off one of the demigods in front off her, she didn't know his name, that she didn't notice another person seeking up on her until an arrow shot the person she was fighting and a thud resounded from behind her.

She turned to see Zoë Nightshade holding a bow and arrow, smirking and Percy Jackson standing behind her, wearing a matching smirk. "Carefully sis, can't have you dying on me yet." He grinned. A wave of relief flooded through Thalia's being. He was okay.

"Lily said Luke was with you?" She questioned as Percy blocked an oncoming attacker. Percy nodded his head to his right, and Thalia followed to where he indicated. There stood Luke Castellan, fighting of two demigods.

"Thank Gods." She murmured. "Percy Craig, isn't here, I think he's waiting for you in the big house." She called over the clashing of swords and the screams of people she knew as they fell. Percy was about to make his way there, until Zoë stopped him.

"You can't go alone." She shouted. "Last time you went alone, you were sent to Tartarus. We cant afford that right now." Thalia nodded in agreement. "She's right Perce, you can't, we will go with you."

"You found us in Tartarus, and saved us, there is no way in Hades that we will let you do this alone after all you've done for us. Anyway, Craig is bound to have people in there too. You'll need us." Luke said coming up behind him, Faith appearing also.

With that said they began fighting their way to the big house, not knowing that a certain little girl was following them.

Lily.
