I was scrubbing the floors of Kronos' hell castle. I blew hair out of my face and wiped the sweat off of my eyebrow.I wasn't doing this a couple years ago...no, I was hanging with my friends and my boyfriend, Percy. But that was in the past...I made my decision..now I'm Kronos' slave. Oh, but don't worry, I'm not his slave for long, soon, I'll be sacrificed. Yeah..life's a beautiful thing!

The reason for the delay in my death? Apparently, it's because I'm not a full adult goddess yet...Zeus needs my blood in a specific way. Yeah...I hate being a fricking Royala Nereid. Alice came in dragging her feet and sat against the wall and sighed.I smiled at her sadly and sat next to her and put my arm around her and smiled,"What's wrong?" She looked at me with an are-you-fricking-kidding-me look and I looked at her..urging her to go on. She sighed,"Let's see. My best and only friend down here is going to die in a matter of months.. Kronos is having a dinner with some of the minor gods and we have to serve...in the sluttiest dresses for Luke's satisfaction."

I cocked an eyebrow,"Luke? He's...he's back in himself again?"

She closed her eyes and shook her head and looked at her hands in her lap,"Kronos is getting weaker the longer he's away from his body, so he's transferring his spirit back into the coffin for a little while and giving Luke is body back for a bit. But Luke is still a fucking creeper because Kronos will check in on him every once in a while. I miss Luke..."

I sighed with her and leaned my head against hers and whispered,"Well, before I...I die, I'll make sure to get you out."

She shook her head,"No, I'll get you out of here first." She smiled and I sighed and gave her a small smile back but shook my head,"No, Al, I'm going to have to go sometime, might as well have it be now."

Luke walked in and he spoke in Luke's voice, which was a relief, it wasn't as freaky as Kronos',"My guests will be here in 2 hours. Cook and then get ready into the dresses in your rooms." And with that he walked out I sighed and we both got up and walked down the hallway into the kitchen.
We cooked the dinner, set the table and took off our aprons and went into our room, which we shared. It was plain and sad, like the entire castle.
My dress was a tight, white dress with one strap and studs along the top. It barely went below my butt. I rolled my eyes...typical, perverted Luke.
Alice sighed as she picked up her short dress. It had a frilly skirt with multiple layers, each shorter than the other. It had spaghetti straps.
We stood next to each other and held our dresses out in front of each other and sighed

"Your dress" she said solemnly

"My dress." I said in the same manner.

We did that every time Luke picked out an outfit for us, we decided which dress was shorter and sluttier. This time, mine definitely was.
We changed and Alice tried to straightened out her dress and put on white heels and I tried pulling my dress out to make it longer, but it was no use. It either was way short and barely covering my butt or it was too low and barely covering my boobs...well, it was actually both either way.
I put on silver heels and we both walked out with our arms linked and found Luke at the entrance in front of the big double doors.
He saw us and smirked, his eyes going to both our chests. I rolled my eyes, here comes the perverted remarks and actions.
We stood on his right side, me next to him. We unlinked arms and folded them in front of us. Luke smirked and snaked his arm around my waist and I held my breath and ignored it. The doorbell rung and the door opened by itself and I saw minor gods step in. Luke smiled a fake smile at all of them, his hand began going lower and lower down on my back until I reached back and pulled it back up and glared at him. Stupid fricking jerk.
I saw some of the male minor gods look not at my face but at my body, and they did the same with Alice as she rolled her eyes.
When all the minor gods got in, some traitor demigods came in. Guys winked and whistled at Alice and I and I knew my eyes were dark blue. When they did this, the guys backed off and looked forward nervously. When everyone finally entered we all walked to the dining room.

Luke pulled me back and whispered into my ear,"Behave yourself."

I clenched my jaw and pulled my arm back aggressively and I glared back at him,"Tell yourself that."

I walked back to Alice and she rubbed my arm as we went to the kitchen to grab glasses of water with lemons in them. I balanced my tray as I tried walking in the limited space I had for my legs in this dress. I made it to the table and I placed water for the minor gods first. I walked over to the demigods and ignored their attempts to slap my ass as I set water down. I saw a few take looks at my cleavage and I'd glare at them and they'd stop. Alice slapped one of them in the head for whistling at her and he rubbed the spot she hit and mumbled something about "got an arm".
We finished giving them water and walked back into the kitchen and slammed the trays down and gave I gave a pissed off "ugh!" I closed my eyes and leaned my back against the counter as I rubbed my temples and closed my eyes. Alice leaned against the counter and crossed her arms over her chest.

Luke came in and said,"Is dinner ready?"

I nodded and looked away from him. He went in front of me and smiled...a real..sweet smile?

He sighed,"I'm sorry for acting like a douche bag...but...Kronos still partly has me taken over...please forgive me."

I gasped slightly at his explanation but I nodded and he smiled a toothy grin...a really sweet one and hugged me and I smiled and hugged him back.
He smiled again at me and went to Alice and also apologized and she nodded and he hugged her.

"Again, please, whatever I do to piss you off, it isn't me. So..try not to kill me ok?" He joked and I giggled,"Yeah..okay."

Before he left he peeked at us again and smiled,"If it helps, you guys look reaaaally beautiful."

We smiled and he winked and walked out.

Alice sighed after him,"I miss the old Luke...it only comes out every once in a while."

I nodded in agreement. We wouldn't see Luke again for a long time. We got the crab cakes and cheese puffs and walked out and set the trays down in front of the minor gods and demigods. We would grab some glasses to refill them and then we'd give them back. It was a pretty boring process.

But what I didn't know is that the real action would come along with the dessert...


They were done with the appetizers so we brought out the they saw us bringing the salad they put their napkins on their laps and got their utensils ready. Alice went to the minor gods and I went to the demigods and set salads down. They stopped their chit-chat and began stuffing their faces. Wow...hungry much?

~Percy's POV~(Dramatic music)
It's only been 2 years but it's felt like forever...it feels like I died when she left.I miss having her in my arms...without her, my heart is gone...she has it with her. I decided to walk to the ocean, to concentrate. I had to find her...I needed her. I haven't stopped thinking about her since that night. I walked to the edge of a cliff and sat down, letting my legs dangle as I looked into the ocean. I looked at the water below me and shrugged, worth a shot. I parted the water below me so I could see below...nothing. I sighed and let the water crash against the cliff again. I felt hopeless. I was looking down still and I noticed something lit up. It was in the middle of the cliff, something that'd be hidden by high tide. I looked at my watch...9:30, I had 30 minutes until high tide. I climbed down and saw that it was...a button? I looked around and sighed, I have nothing to lose...
I pushed it and the cliff shook and I held on tighter as the cliff ...split in half. When the cliff stopped, a cave was revealed. I stepped onto the cave floor and walked forward for about 1 minute. I reached dead-end and noticed...a handle. I pulled on it and it opened..revealing a courtyard...a very sad courtyard...and ahead of it...was a huge castle.

"Severa..."I whispered as I broke into a run.

I took out Riptide and sliced through some monsters guarding the gate. I pushed the gate open and ran to the side of the castle. I climbed the vines on the side of the house and saw a window with a light. Carefully, I peeked through and saw a kitchen with the most beautiful girl in it.. Right there...I knew it was Severa.

She looked...amazing. More amazing than I remember her...she looked...unbelievable...I thought I was daydreaming. I knocked on the window and she jumped and put her hand on her rubber band on her wrist as she turned around. She saw me and her eyes widened and her jaw dropped and so did mine...it...it was really her! She ran over to the window and opened it and I climbed in. She didn't say anything she just stared at me with her eyes wide. She put her hand over her mouth and she began to cry. I hesitantly reached my arms out to her...but I couldn't help it, I ran and hugged her, picking her off the ground and spinning her. I set her down and cupped her face and she put her hands over mine and she smiled.

"I-I thought I'd never see you again!" I whispered, taking in the beautiful sight before me.

She laughed and more tears fell as she whispered,"I thought you would move on."

I looked at her..amazed and shook my head,"I could never move on from the girl who is my reason to go forward."

I hugged her so tightly around her shoulders and she put her arms around my waist. I pulled her face to mine and kissed her. I couldn't believe I was here. It felt like eternity since I've kissed her. It was...it was a feeling I missed. There were huge sparks and I felt waves in my stomach. I was here...with her..kissing her again. Our lips moved together, something I can't describe. It felt so good to feel her lips on mine again. I pulled her close and she put her arms around my neck and mine went to her hips, pulling her closer. I was out of breath but I didn't care. Her lips felt so good on mine again. It's been way too long since I've kissed her. I pushed her against the counter and our lips continued to mold into one another. I felt whole again...my heart was back with me...my world was back with me.

~Severa~
I couldn't describe how I felt with Percy here with me, kissing me. I missed his lips and his smile and his eyes...I thought I was dreaming, so I got every taste I could until I woke up. My world was standing here before me, in the same room. We pulled away and smiled at each other.

Alice walked in and her jaw dropped at the sight and then she smiled,"You...must be Percy."

She smiled a sweet smile at us both and she giggled,"You two ARE ADORABLE!" She squealed and I put my finger over my mouth, telling her to shut up.

"Sorry! I'm just so happy for you!" She jumped up and down and hugged me.

Percy smiled at us both and asked,"Who's this?"

I pulled back from Alice,"My best friend and cell mate, Alice Balaza."

They shook hands and Alice winked at me and I giggled and blushed. It felt so good to have a real laugh again. Percy came over and put his arm around my waist. We heard Luke get up from his chair and panicked. I pushed Percy into a pantry and we stood there and he chuckled,"Just like old times.."

I laughed quietly,"Yeah, except now it's a pantry, not a cleaning supplies closet."

He chuckled and his eyes gleamed and I kissed his sweet lips again and he smiled into the kiss.

"Where's Severa?" I heard Luke's voice outside the door and Percy pulled me into him and growled silently.

"Um..bathroom?" Alice said more like a question and I heard Luke grunt and sigh,"Well, we're ready for dinner so tell her to hurry up."

Alice cleared her throat,"Yeah, whatever." I could just see her rolling her eyes and I smiled.

We heard the kitchen door close and we stepped out and I sighed,"I have to go, and so do you!"

Percy's eyes saddened but he nodded,"I'll Iris Message you the plan okay? In exactly a week from now..this time, be in your room with Alice. I'll tell you the plan, I'll have all the help I'll need."

I nodded, tears brimming my eyes and he wiped them away,"Just 1 week, Sev. I love you." I smiled and kissed him one last time for 1 week and he climbed out the window as he winked at me.

Alice rubbed my arm and looked at me,"He'll come back, Sevvie." I smiled, that was her nickname for me.

I hugged her and wiped my eyes and sighed,"My makeup good? I don't need questions from Luke." She wiped my cheek and smiled,"Perfect!"

We took the huge chicken tray together and put it in the center of the table, along with mashed potatoes, gravy and potato salad. We both sighed when they began eating and went back into the kitchen and sat on the counter. I had some mashed potatoes for myself and so did she.

We were eating and Luke came in with a smile,"They love the dinner, they told me to tell you."

We shrugged and didn't answer him so he just left. I rolled my eyes and mimicked him in a high voice,"They wuv the dinner!" Alice laughed at me and continued eating. It was silent, except for the scraping of forks on plates. It was an hour and everyone was done so we took the dishes and rinsed them off, putting them in the dishwasher. Luke dismissed us and we sighed in relief and walked back to our room and took off the dresses quickly. I put on a tank top and pajama pants, and she put on a big t-shirt with booty shorts. I brushed my hair out and let it down and rinsed off my face, getting all the make up off. We laid in our beds that were next to each other and just stared at the ceiling. I pulled out a book and began reading and Alice was drawing random stuff. I sighed...Percy, please come quick.

~Percy~

I ran back to camp and ignored all the weird looks. Usually I was dragging my feet, looking at the ground with my hands in my pockets. Yeah you could say I've been depressed, but that was gone now.

I ran for Chiron's cabin and burst through the doors,"CHIRON!" His head snapped up and so did Mr.D's.

"Um, yes Percy?" He asked and I smiled,"I found Severa."

Both Mr.D's and Chiron's eyes widened and they shouted at the same time,"WHAT?!"
