Hero

Cheerleader.

Prep-Girl.

That's what people call her

Those words

They don't hurt her

But instead, get her thinking

Are the words they say true?

Is that all she was?

Just a preppy cheerleader on the sidelines?

An example of her mother?

But deep inside

She knew what she really was

A spy

For the enemy

And every word that came out of her mouth

A lie.

Then the battle

The biggest of her life

And the last

And staring into the face of her

Best friend

She screams it aloud

Everything kept hidden from them

And then braced herself for the bitter anger

But as she quietly passes away

She realized

She's been dubbed

Not as a traitor

But

A

Hero.

A/N: Well, I think you all guessed by now that it was Selena. This is basically a free-verse about how she worked as a spy, but in The Lost Hero, everyone honored her bravery. It's third person limited in Selena's point of view.
