I just found out about this great song, and I decided to make a fic about it. 'It' is The Light Behind Your Eyes by My Chemical Romance.
I found it just minutes ago.
I was watching a lyric video for Leave Out All The Rest {Linkin Park, great song and artist} by Lizzy9500.
I scrolled through the comments, as I sometimes do on YouTube.
Someone put a link to the video to this song by RawrMeansRoar.
I instantly fell in love with the song, and this creation was born.
Please, listen to the song, listen to The Forty Eight, another great inspirational band, and Paramore. Linkin Park, Evanescence, and Flyleaf. There's also Elizabeth Grace {a great YouTube coverist}
All great band that are great for anyone who need understanding. Thank you if your read thus far.
Disclaimer: No, I don't own any thing in this story besides the plot, and my OC.
Thalia's P.O.V. (Second Person)
Luke's dead. Luke's dead. Dead, as in gone forever. And Ever.
And
Ever.
His horrendous death... So close to where she was stuck.
Everyone she'd known and deeply cared about was dead or gone, all dead or gone.
The only ones left where the ones she'd either met after she was a tree {she flinched at this; the memory was hard for her} or Grover and Annabeth. Unless you count the Gods or May. It was really hard for her to truly grasp that Luke was gone, like how hard it was for her when Jason, sweet, innocent Jason..
No, she thought, no mourning.
One of her favorite bands, Paramore, helped her after she recovered from her former state.
She would listen to them, and find herself closer to better. But the only time after Jason's death that she'd felt truly happy was when she'd met Luke. Annabeth was great..
But it was all Luke.
She remembered. when she met him. It seemed like so little ago... Being a tree had changed all her memories. Time wise only, though.
***•Flashback•***
She sat.
She'd been running for only three days, but it felt like a lifetime. All her lifetime.
Her body ached with pains. Sore legs, arms, lungs, heart, all of it. Hurt had been engulfing her very soul, very body, for so long.
Ever since her mom left with Jason, all she felt was pain.
She made it worse, though, ever so worse.
All she wanted was to be numb.
That would contain pain, that would contain hurt.
That would contain it all.
But her issue was: Whenever she tried to walk, she'd run. She couldn't stop running. She couldn't do any thing was officially dying.
And the worst part is: She knew it.
She knew, by nine years old, that the worst part is that before it gets any better, she was already headed for a cliff. And she realized, in each free fall, she was better off when she hit the bottom.
Suddenly, a blonde boy, a little older than her, stumbled into the clearing that she'd been in.
He saw her sitting on the large tree stump. He made the daring move of sitting next to her.
"Hey, name's Luke. Who are you?"
"I'm Thalia," she barely whispered, scared to say anything after being silent for three days, minus some singing to her self {which had been barely audible.}
"Cute name," he flirted {I've always imagined he constantly flirted with her}
"Thanks," she blushed.
"Do you have a last name?" He asked.
She got edgy. Her eyes widened, she sat up straight, and she glared her already-perfect-glare. He stared back, wide-eyes, scared. "I-I'm sorry. I guess you have a bad parent too. I ran away from home two years ago, when I was your age. my mom was really crazy and hallucinated."
"Oh... My mom had an alcohol problem and when my dad came back... She had my little brother.." She was crying now, and her ip was trembling, along with her voice, "and three days ago we went for a picnic... And she lost him... He's 2, probably dead... And I ran... Literally... I couldn't stop..." And she let loose a horrible sob.
"Thalia.. Thalia... I'm sorry I didn't-" he cut himself off and hugged the poor girl..
She wrapped her small arm around him as his cradled her head to him.
***•End Flashback•***
She started whimpering... Then she sobbed. Alone. Alone like she was before he came in.
She was alone in her cabin, on her bed.
Still no Jason. She's still had him gone. Her mother too. The empty void in her heart took it over at that moment. No one left, no more heart.
Did any one like? It is right after Percy leaves camp.. In TLO. Please review.
