For Natalie-my informal beta and dear friend


Seven half-bloods shall answer the call

Are you really good enough?

With your pretty little words

Telling l/i/e/s/

Even your precious Jason knows it

You're a d~a~m~s~e~l~i~n~d~i~s~t~r~e~s~s~

Not a h!e!r!o! at all

The others don't need you

You're just a burden to them

To storm or fire the world must fall

Funny little fire boy

Laughing through the p\a\i\n\

Don't you take anything seriously?

The world is ending

Your friends are g-o-n-e

(And so is your precious mother)

Guess what darling?

It's all your fault

An oath to keep with a final breath

"As long as we're together"

Isn't that sweet?

A love to last e*t*e*r*n*i*t*y*

The t-a-l-e told all through time

The thing about myths

(Especially ones about lovers)

They don't get h~a~p~p~y~e~n~d~i~n~g~s~

You're no exception

And foes bear arms to the doors of death

Poor little Frankie

Such a cliché s~o~b~s~t~o~r~y~

Everyone's dead-aren't they?

(You and Not-Sammy have that in common)

But at least you've got

Your darling H^a^z^e^l^

Right?

I've got news hon'

She'll be gone before you know it
