Percy tries to carry on with his life in camp, but things don't work out quite well.


Demons In My Head

-Percy-

"Smile, Percy!" How can I smile when I wake up from nightmares every night? When I get a flashback every time someone triggers something?

"Hey, man, come celebrate with us!" How can I celebrate, when I lost all the life in me and sunk into the pit of despair?

"Percy, want to hang out with us?" Yes. No. Maybe. Do I want to be alone?

Despite my thoughts, I still do it all. Despite the battle scars, the ones that time can only heal, I still go along with the waves of life. I don my trademark smile, and make the necessary jokes and comments. But if you look close enough you'll see, that twinkle in my eyes is dimmer, my smile more subdued.

The puzzle called Percy Jackson has lost the vital piece that completed the picture.


Prompt: nightmare

A/N: I decided to make a fanfic about how the Seven, Nico, Reyna and all the ones directly involved in the war. Kinda heavy, and to be honest, I wanted to write it like how I write my other stories, but I'm pretty satisfied with this one.

As I said, requests are open! Just PM me or review it, and I'll make it come alive.

Till then,

Keeper of the Flame
