SwanDestiny: Hi.
Reyna: SwanDestiny doesn't own the Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus series.
SwanDestiny: That's it...
SwanDestiny: I'm SwanDestiny, and some of you may have read my previous stories and know who I am, while others are new to me! My poll resulted in me writing this fanfiction, out of all the three choices.
SwanDestiny: Anyways, welcome to Healing, or whatever I'm going to call it later! The title name may be changed by the time you read this. I'm sure you know what this story is going to be about with the summary.
Let's get started then!
Aphrodite looked down beyond the heavens, peering at the lone figure of Reyna. She sat on a park bench, shivering despite the fact it wasn't cold at all. While all the other demigods at the Roman camp were having their free period, doing whatever they'd like, many of them pairing up with their boyfriends or girlfriends, Reyna was alone.
She sat there, looking down at her shoes. While Aphrodite would usually be girly about this and fret over Reyna's choice of clumpy, horrifying shoes, she had a lot more to worry about. It was as if Reyna was secluded from the other world, isolated by herself.
Nobody could have such a dark past, and a dark destiny. Not Reyna.
Aphrodite glanced at Reyna's eyes. They seemed so heart-broken, so shattering. This was the part of Reyna nobody could see... Except one boy.
She sighed. Reyna had a true love, after all, she couldn't have such a cruel fate befall on her. Reyna had already gone through so many things... And is a true heroine that could not live a terrible life with no love in it.
Aphrodite held the power of true love in her, and as soon as Aphrodite saw Reyna's past, she knew one demigod who matched it. There was a problem though.
Then something went horrifically wrong.
Reyna's supposedly soulmate, was actually born near a 50 years before her.
Aphrodite was shocked, but soon discovered he was in the Lotus Hotel and Casino. It was a pleasant surprise for Aphrodite, but as she looked further into it, she discovered one, major, flaw.
Even though he was still young and near Reyna's age, Aphrodite gave up on it. It was unlikely he would ever escape Lotus Casino anyways... Nobody does. After all, the entrancing magic hidden in it all rarely allowed anyone to escape.
So, with a crestfallen, tragic pair, lost to storm, Aphrodite told Reyna that her heart would never be healed by any demigod.
That was when Aphrodite learned that he was actually no longer in the casino, and actually outside in the world.
So she must now fix her mistake, and tell Reyna the truth.
Aphrodite would have to give the youth potion to Reyna, and let her discover her own path.
"Reyna..." A voice called. "Rey-na!"
The voice seemed oddly familiar, like Reyna spoke to her (she was able to confirm the gender of the person) before.
She just wished she could figure out who it was.
"Reyna!"
The voice was so melodic, first like the pattern of the ocean waves, then changing into the sound of a beautiful forest.
If only Reyna could put her finger on it...
"Reyna, we shall meet again."
And then it all disappeared.
Reyna woke up with a start, beads of cold sweat clinging onto her forehead. Reyna let out a sigh of relief.
No nightmares? That was a first...
Demigods were attacked by nightmares, prophecies, the past, the future, all haunting them forever.
But last night... She didn't have one single horrid dream. Not one.
In fact, all she heard was the soft calling of her name.
"Reyna..."
"Reyna, we shall meet again."
Reyna looked down at the palm of her hand, examining it in front of her obsidian colored eyes for a second.
What could this mean?
SwanDestiny: That's it for now. I know this was a short chapter, but it's just the first chapter, basically the Prolouge, but whatever!
