Leo

Leo was busy working in the engine room until breakfast, he did not sleep for 10 days because of nightmares of the fire 8 years ago,he heard himself pounding on the door screaming, and then waking up with sweat all over, now he sits there alone tapping 'I love you' in Morse Code and Nemesis's words keep playing in his head.

" I am a seventh wheel, the others stay away from me and talk to their other. Hazel has Frank, Annabeth has Percy and Piper has Jason, and me, I have nobody." Leo muttered.

Leo was so deep in thought that he did not hear the bell go off, Festus, his mechanical dragon creaked that it went off and he hurried into the quarterdeck. He was going to make a joke when walking in until he heard talking from the six, he crept quietly, hearing what they were going to say...

"Where is Leo? He never arrives on time!" Annabeth says,"He is so lazy and is always too busy talking with a dragon,"

"I personally think Leo is the weakest of the six, like what has he done apart from starting a war and getting us on Tartarus" Percy said angrily. Leo's face darkened and tears starting blurring his view.

"It wasn't his fault that he shot into Rome and he opened the fortune cookie to save me and Frank" Hazel says , Leo felt happy that someone was nice to him.

"But Leo is still weak, he is so skinny and looks as if he has not eaten for days" Jason says. Leo expression changes,'Maybe that is the reason I'm so skinny' Leo thought.

"No, Leo is so strong, if you knew his past then you would not say that, he saved us from Ma Gasket with just a tool belt and make most of the ship to get here in the first place" Piper says with a glare to Jason.

"In my opinion, Leo is the weakest, don't you agree?" Frank asks. everybody except Piper (who glared at everyone) nodded and agreed. Leo, with tears in his eyes went to his room and shut it so hardly, that the noise was heard in the quarterdeck.

"I think that Leo heard what you guys said there" Piper says angrily.

"Well, he should have because it is the truth!," Jason shouts

Leo heard that too and cried his eyes out in his bed, is this what his friends thought of him, weak, lazy and useless. He did not even know if they would regard him as a friend. Then, all for a sudden, somebody knocked on the door.

Leo then sees a small pocketknife and Nemesis came to his head again, he really wanted to run that knife on his skin and see the trails of blood following it. He pushed his shirt up revealing lots of cuts and he took the knife to his arm.

SELF HARM COMING

Leo then cuts himself 6 times, for every person on that ship that hated him, he hates himself as much as the others, and winces at the pain. Afterwards, he puts a bandage on his arm and starts to go towards the door. Then, all for a sudden, somebody knocked on the door.

"Go away!" Leo yells, "I heard what you said, why are you going to me now!"

"It's Piper, now open up," Piper pleaded.
