Why are children afraid of the dark? Is it because of the monster that lurks under the bed? Or is it the creaks and groans that sounds like ghosts about the house? Well we'll soon find out.
Percy Jackson had never been afraid of the dark. He had been stalked on the playground, and had strangled a snake when it somehow found its way into his preschool naptime cot, but he had never been afraid of the dark….. Until now.
He would have wanted to tell Annabeth and Grover about it but now he couldn't considering he was gone. And something told him it wasn't something you could find in the Camp Half-Blood Survival Guide
Flashback One Week Ago
He was going to the convenience store around the corner to get some eggs for his mom. He got to the store within a fifteen minute walk and walked back to the back of the store to get the eggs.
Hmm, should I get white or brown eggs? I'll just grab the white ones.
Percy grabbed the eggs and walked up to the front counter to pay.
"That'll be $4.00." said a brown-haired male cashier
"Here you go," Percy said as he pulled the money out of his pocket and handed to the cashier.
The cashier was about to take the money when a loud crash made him behind Percy. Percy head snapped behind him but he didn't see anything out of the ordinary he looked back toward the cahsier but what he saw made Percy back away until he hit one of the shelves and made him freeze where he was.
Behind the cashier was a humanoid figure but it was made of black smoke and had glowing red eyes and the smoke flicked that curled around him, or rather it.
"What the-?" But Percy couldn't finish his sentence because the figure literally flew at him with enough force that caused the shelf that Percy was leaning against to collapse and made all the food to fall and role across the floor or be flattened by Percy and the figure.
Percy was now wrestling with It trying to get it off of him but with no prevail.
"What are you?" Percy grunted.
"I am everything and nothing, rage and hate, loneliness and despair." The creature answered. It's voice chilled Percy to the bone, it's voice was like a snake's whisper if possible.
"Wow that was definitely what I wanted to hear." Percy said with sarcasm clearly evident in his struggled voice.
The creature picked up Percy by his shirt shoulders and threw him into the powered food section and Pecy's head hit the edge of metal shelf. Percy was in a slight daze and looked at the cashier about to tell him to run but then he saw that the cashier was smiling a dark, evil smile at him.
"Perseus Jackson you didn't believe you could ever get away from us did you?" as the cashier said this he morphed into another smoke creature his changing into the bone chilling sound
"Um well if your monsters then…. no?" What does that mean?
" Well well well. It seems Perseus does not know of us, I think it's time we teach him a lesson Heken." The creature who was the cashier.
Teach me a lesson? That doesn't sound good.
"I agree Despro. How should start? Break his legs or the ah… terror treatment?"
