You know some people think after the war things got better for me, you may think I found my light. That things were happy as could be.
Those people are wrong. They have always and will always be wrong. Because their is no magic switch to save the day, no magic that can bring back the dead who are lost forever. no switch that can end my pain.
Looking out on the hills around me this idea can be seen plain as day. Three months had gone past but nothing hadd changed. Ruined builings still lay flatterned, the strawberry fields over turned, the forests still coated in mud so thick many Naiads had suffered fates worse than death under them. The oracle is silent. The healing going.
And talking about going, there was me. Going. I can't look at this place without feeling ill, after all what's good for me here. I've recovered and now I'm ready to move on. That's what happens in life you have the pain, you move on. Staying in the pain, in the death is futile
Why should I stay?
What do I have to gain?
I've spent to much time being concerned about others it's time to be selfish.
But that's the unfortunate truth, as long as I'm siting here watching, the destruction persist. In cabin thirteen their is a little black box, inside jewellery for my sister, amber to match her eyes, and an obsidien dagger for the fierce leader of New Rome.
"Hey stranger, still brooding?"
Hmm, and then there was him, the annoying to concerned for my safety, possessive son of apollo.
"I'll take that as a yes then"
His long legs folding beneath him as he leanes back on Thalia's tree, his legs inches from mine, still miles too close.
"You know..."
"What do do you want, Solace?"
"Someway to treat a friend"
"Friends? I prefer acquaintance, at best, so your a lot lower"
Pushing myself off the floor I began walking away, hearing a sigh and muttering from the blonde behind me I just jept walking. Better to be mean, it will hurt me less when I leave. Hurt them less when I leave too, not that I care.
Ughh whatever.
Slamming the door behind me and flopping onto my bed.
A horn sounds in the distance. Probably them going to tea, I stayed flopped on my bed, I've veen here for hours. the box still hidden under my bed. I take it out.
Fixated upon them the idea returns to my mind. Fully healed I could stay away and nobody would be able to find me.
Footsteps.
Quickly slamming the things under my pillow, and pretending to fall asleep, I hear the door open.
"Should we wake him?" Hazel's voice echoed around the cabin.
"Nah let him sleep, Will said he needed the rest"
Of course, Jason came with her.
I hear the door close and them leave, opening my eyes I pull the box out from under my pillow, putting it on Hazel's bed I slipped out of bed, silently moving my desk forward and bringing out a small bag behind it, shoving it in my pocket I let shadows claim me.
And disappeared into the night.
-Line Breaks - for tea and biscuits
I sat in a hippies dream, a shop surrounded and filled with crystals, tie dye shirts, dream catchers. Aisle filled with stones promising fortune, fountains and scented candles.
In front of me sat a beautiful young women with black hair and warm brown eyes. The owner of this shop, R.O.F.L, she twirled a muffin, no sorry a gluten-free, no-sugar-added, vitamin-enriched, soy-free, goat-milk-and-seaweed-based cupcake simulation. Things were so much simpler back in 1930, but probably for the worst.
Iris' well irides pierced me, we had all agreed on the terms, she would block all iris and fleecy messages from reaching me in return I would owe her a favour and have to pay her enough money to open another store.
I needed her to accept this deal. And quickly.
Sighing, she swung a cup around on her finger.
"Sure, if this is what you really want. I guess you owe me a favour then" her eyes piercing into me.
" But I'll collect that later" she said as she rose and floated away back to her customers.
Letting shadows consume me, I felt this world disappear but a new one was just beginning.
