End's POV


Lyacon rakes his claws across my stomach, I inhale sharply at the pain "What's Wrong Girl? the sting too much for ya?" he taunts, dragging his claws down my arm, sinking his claws deeper this time, I Run, trying to get away, My Long pitch Black hair Falls in my Face as I shadow Travel, barely making it out alive, barely making it out alive, trying to get somewhere Safe, he's gone... i think appearing in front of a greek style building, barely able to stand as the Door Opens, just my luck... a blonde boy, about 22 years old,walks out, as he shuts the door, and I collapse, not able to stand anymore "Whoah there!" he catches me, "Hey, Don't Black out on me." he Urges, "Will! Emergency!" I hear as my vision blurs "What's Wrong Jason?" i groan in pain "oh gods Jason.. where did you find her?" Will Asks "She Collapsed in front of my cabin" I try to Move, but can't due to Pain "Don't Move Miss" Will, now Next to me, Says "Jason, Kneel down, And Don't let her go, what i'm gonna do is gonna make her try to escape" I feel Two hands Examine the Wound on my Stomach, I Squirm away at the Sudden touch, but i'm held in place by a Hand on my Shoulder "G-Get Off me!" I Say, Weakly, as i Feel a Needle Poke my Arm, and I'm Shushed as I fall asleep


Jason's POV


As Will Pulls the Needle out from her thin, Pale arm, she Relaxes in mine "the Wound is bad... Let's get her to the Infirmary" Will Says, a Hint of Worry in his Eyes "She's Gonna be Ok right?" I say while we're walking, I don't know why, but i Care, Seeing a Girl who is just like Nico, the same Black hair, the Same Flinch to the Touch, But her eyes.. One of her eyes is onyx, like Nico's, but the other is Light blue, like the Sky, "I can't Say Jason.." Will responds, opening the Door to the infirmary, He points to a Bed "Put her down there, And Go Get Nico, Percy, and Annabeth" I set her down as Gently as i can and, then I Run to the Athena Cabin, which is closest, hidden next to the Big House and the Infirmary, and Knock "Annabeth!" i yell "what Jase?" she Asks, "Will Needs you, In the Infirmary, and Could you get there.. quick." "is it Seaweed brain?" she asks "no. new camper" I say as I'm jogging off to Percy's cabin, which is down by the lake "Percy!" "Yeah?" "Infirmary NOW."

he sees the Blood on my Hands "oh gods is it Annie?" "no, Will needs you.. New Camper." he nods and Runs off, I Jog to Nico's Cabin Next Door, which is A dark Building, With a Skull hanging over the Door "Nico!" I yell "What Jason?" "new Camper… Might me a Kid of the Big 3.." "What? Another broken oath?" i drag him to the infirmary, where Will, Percy, Annabeth, and the passed out girl are waiting "Bianc- Who is she?" Nico asks staring at her, She starts to stir, slowly, but she's awake, "t-three questions, W-Who are y-you? W-Where a-am I? and w-why a-am i here?" I was stunned. Her voice had a weak southern drawl to it. Will was the first to recover from the shock "I'm Will, this is Percy, Annabeth, Nico, and Jason. You're in the Camp Half-Blood Infirmary, and you collapsed in front of Jason's Cabin" he stated flatly. "N-NO MORE M-MONSTERS!" She freaked out, trying to get up, "Hey! don't get up!" Percy and I tried to pin her... But her eyes flared up gold, then Will plunged another syringe into her arm. Filed with sedatives "She's... N-No.." Percy stuttered "she's going to be fine" Annabeth said, trying to calm her husband down, Percy stared at her, his hand in his pocket, "Seaweed brain" Annabeth shook him "Perseus! Jackson!" "Annie... it's.. its.. K-... Him.." "no Percy, it's not, it's ok, He Died with Luke" Percy Just nods.


Will's POV


I watch as Annabeth drags Percy out of the infirmary. With Nico following them, oh Schist... she's in bad shape.. "Jason," I start off "Yeah?" He responds, one hand protectively on her shoulder "go grab me some thread from the cabinet on the left, then go IM Liana, and tell her to Get Allison and Sophia ok?" he nods and walks over, grabbing the needle and thread, then Starts an IM. "Liana," "Yeah Jase?" "New Camper. I need you to Get Ally, and Sophia, ok?" "I can do that" She nods, her Light grey eyes startling on her tan skin "be there in… 10 min Ok Jase?" He just nods and disconnects the IM. As he hands me the thread, The small girl, opens her mismatched eyes "S-Stay away from me" she says as I move closer "I'm not gonna hurt you" "T-That's what a monster w-would say." "How about I prove it?" I grab a small scalpel from the table nearby, and cut the palm of my, it'll heal with a swig of nectar, but I do this to get her trust "I-Is he….?" "he's like me, now, what's your name, and how old are you?" "End…. and I'm… Seven.." She answers eyeing Jason as he comes closer to her "Hi End" he starts off carefully, trying not to scare her, "Jason, keep her focused on you while I stitch up these nasty wounds" as i'm working, I see Jason making sparks come off his fingers to keep her focused on him, and not on me Stitching her up "Will?" I hear Liana's Voice in the Hall "In here Liana" I call out to her, and then Liana, Allison and Sophia's heads peek in "is this the new Camper?" Allison asks and I nod, As End looks over and jumps "W-Who are they?" Her eyes flicker gold for a second "End, they're fine" Jason Assures her, and I tie off End's stitches then, wrap her arm up "Jason, help her sit up so i can wrap her stomach wound" he nods, gently taking End's arm "C'mon End, just sit up slowly" he urges, Looking at her like a father would look at his child, a mixture of worry and love for the small, frail girl "J-Jason it hurts…" She Looks at him, clearly in pain "End, Will's just gonna wrap up your stomach, then we'll move you to a better room ok?" Jason reassures her "o-okay.." Jason helps her sit up, and I wrap her stomach... she's so thin.. and scared.. What did she go through? She's only seven.. "Jason, can you pick her up and fly her to your cabin? She seems to trust you the most," he nods "Hey End, wanna go get in a nice warm bed?" Jason asks Her, and she nods slightly "Y-Yeah.." he picks her up and she buries her head in his chest, then Jason slowly flies out the infirmary door "ok.. Liana and, Allison, grab me food for each of us, a baggie of ambrosia, and a canteen of nectar, then Sophia, I need you to go get her some clothes, Preferably light colors, and no patterns, so if she starts to bleed we'll know, then meet me in cabin one" I run after Jason, who Just landed


End's POV


"J-Jason?" I look down at the grass beneath us "Yeah End?" "I-I don't wanna run anymore… A-Am I safe now?" Jason nods "you're safe now, End." He lands on the the steps of the same building I appeared in front of "Jason!" I hear Will as he runs up to us. "hey Will, can you get the door?, and pull the covers back on my bed?" Will nods, opening the door, then walking over to the bed in the corner, and lifts the covers "ok End you ready to be set down?" "Y-Yeah I a-am.." Jason gently lays me down on the bed, then covers me, "you ok?" I nod, and then as soon as i laid my head down, sleep overcame me


Jason's POV


"Jason… you seem to care for her a lot, in a fatherly way" "I do Will… she's so.. Broken, like Nico is- was before you helped him discover that ten-year-old boy who laughed, and smiled" "I wonder what happened?.. She shouldn't be so scared of us" Will ponders as I watch her sleep, every breath she takes, seems like she's afraid to take it. "Will… You need some sleep. Head to the Apollo Cabin and I'll come and get you in the morning ok?" Will nods. "You sure Jason?" "Yeah, I'll be fine" He nods and walks out, leaving me with the sleeping End, "What am I gonna do with you, End…." I mutter under my breath, and make Sure she's tucked in Nice and Warm, then Walk over to Thalia's Old Bunk, and Lie Down, "Goodnight End," i whisper as i Fall Asleep

The Next Morning:

I awake to a Scream,"End?" I get up, Banging my head on Thalia's Small bunk, "K-K-Keep Him away!" End's hidden under the Covers, Shaking, "End… Shhhh it's ok, It's me, Jason, You're fine" she Sits up, and the covers no longer over her head "Momma.. Step-daddy…" "End they're not here"

"T-they're not?" "no, you're fine" I sit down next to her, and then hear a knock, Liana, Ally and Sophia walk in, Liana has a Baggie of ambrosia and a Canteen of Nectar, Ally balancing 5 Plates of food, and Sophia with an armful of Clothing, End Shrinks away from them "H-H-H-Hi…." she manages to stutter out "End, Meet Sophia, Ally, and Liana" At the Mention of each of their names, they Each Said Hello in their own unique Way "How's Life " "Hey!" " 'Sup" Allison sets the food down on the bedside table, "Hey End…" Liana starts off, her Startling Light Grey eyes odly soothing to End "W-What's that" End Pointed to the baggie "Magical wafers that make you heal faster End, wanna try one?" "I-I do.." Liana gets a Little Square out and Hands it to end "Just take a bite" End Takes a hesitant bite then smiles "Yummy…" Sophia pulls out a light blue shirt and a pair of Jeans "Jason, Turn and don't look until i say" I feel her charmspeak wash over me "ok.." I turn as sophia Dresses End "turn!" End looks Very uncomfortable in the light blue colored Shirt "C-Can I put on my old black one?" "no hun, you can't, Will said light colored things because of your wounds. He is so bossy, right?" says Sophia, then End giggles in response. "I heard that" Will remarks at the door. Sophia Laughs "of course you heard it, I knew you were there" will rolls his eyes and walks over to End, who is clearly uncomfortable in her clothes "How ya feelin End?" he smiles "Pretty good…. i really don't like this shirt" "well you gotta wear it until your wounds get better," End looks at me, and i offer her a smile, "so, End where ya from?" Liana asks, sitting down next to End "South Alabama…" "... you are? you traveled all this way alone?" End nods "Momma found out I wasn't step-daddys child… and started.. beatin on me…. sayin' I wasnt her daughter either.. that I didn't belong with them.. so.. I ran…. some man who called himself the alpha wolf was chasin' me…" she has nobody… well… nobody who wants her…. a tear traces Her cheek and Liana wipes it away "shhh it's ok End, nobody can hurt you here" End starts to get up, and i rush over to her and kneel down "don't get up End," she wraps her arms around me and starts crying in my shoulder, I slip my hand under her shirt and rub shapes in the small of her back, a trick I use when Nico is having a panic attack, "I don't wanna go back.. please don't send me back…." she manages to say through her tears "you wont" i see Ally smiling, Sophia holding back tears of joy and sadness, and Liana with a look of pure happiness on her face, Liana gives Ally and Sophia the Get lost face and they leave, smiling, i get up and Sit down on the bed, End still crying in my arms, "T-Thank you…" End whispers in my ear, and I keep rubbing shapes in her back, Will walks over to Thalia's bunk and lies down, mouthing "Taking a Nap, wake me later," to Liana and I. Liana lies across the foot of the bed, and starts drawing on her arm, I feel End settle, and stops crying a bit, to soothe her, I started singing the song my Mom always sung to me as a child, "shush little child, your daddy loves you, he's just busy, you, will know who he is soon, shush child shush, stop your tears, and think of who he might be, blue eyes, Blonde hair, and a crown on his head, shush child shush, Daddy loves you so very much" she started relaxing, and Liana smiled at me and mouthed "you're her daddy now Jason"

3 hours later:

Will shakes me gently, "Jason.. wake up.." i open my eyes and End is still in my arms, sound asleep "yeah Will?" I lower my voice "Percy and Annabeth are here to check up on her" "being them in" Will walks to the door and they both walk in "how is she Jason?" Annabeth asks me "she's pretty good.." I pick her up gently and set her next to me, her black hair is in her face, "she was beaten as a young girl, so she's terrified to go back" i continue, But Percy walks over to her and a tear traces his cheek "why do the little ones always have to be beaten or hurt Annie… WHY?" he stares at her, "I have no idea Seaweedbrain….." Annabeth was shunned at seven too.. but she had Luke and Thalia to travel with… "wait.. Annabeth.. you had an experience like this when you were her age.. right?" Annabeth nods "yeah.. my dad and Step-Mom abused me" Percy brushes the hair out of End's face "she's too young to be like this, she's like Nico.. in a lot of ways.. could she be one of us? a Child of the big three?" "I think she is Perce.. i have no idea if she is.. or isn't" a symbol blazed to life above her, the symbol of Pluto.. but then it faded into an Eagle…. "well.. she IS like us Jace.. but why did her symbol change?" Percy looks at Annabeth for answers "Because I claimed her as my daughter Perce, I'm a son of jupiter, hence the eagle, but her REAL dad is Pluto" "oh…. ok then.." Annabeth held in laughter "you were hoping she was a second gen weren't you Seaweedbrain?" Percy smiles shyly and nods "yeah i kinda was" "well, she isn't, and she's Roman, i think" End Starts to Stir, and Her eyes flash gold for a millisecond "W-Why is he here? S-Step Dad... W-Why is he here Jason? WHY?" a Skeletal hand Reaches through the floor and End Screams "GET. HIM!" the Skeleton Crawls up and attacks Percy "End, Calm down" I try to calm her, but she's Freaked out "Those.. Green eyes Haunt me Jason…" her mismatched eyes are Full of Fear "End, I'm not your Step-Dad, I'm Jason's Friend, Percy Jackson" she calms down a bit, and her stomach Bandage is Covered in blood "hey End, lemme change Your bandage, but i'm gonna need Percy's help ok?" she nods and tries to sit up, so i help her "it hurts…." she whimpers as i unwrap her bandage and percy helps me change it "you ok?" she looks at me and settles in "yeah…" Percy sits down and puts a hand on her shoulder "Jason will take great care of you, ok?" End Nods as Annabeth kisses Percy "Hey End, I'm Annabeth, Jason's a Great person, and, He's your new Daddy. Ok?" End smiles and looks at me, as the Skeleton Dissipates behind her, a boy from the Artemis cabin…. Yes Artemis broke her oath, Comes running in, "Jason! Chiron wants to see you!" his silvery blonde hair Falls in his face "alright Mason, I'll bring End in a bit" he nods and books it back to the Big house, "Hey End, wanna go meet Chiron?" she nods and I pick her up, Percy, Annabeth, and Will following close behind.

At the big house:

We arrive at the big house

I walk up the stairs, and Will gets the door, due to me holding a small child, "Whoah… this place is Huge!" End stares at the large first room in the big house with wide eyes "Erin, Wen, Anniebell, Perry, and John," Mr. D Greets us as he walks out "My Name is End! NOT Erin!" Mr. D turns around, his eyes Glowing with anger "Don't push me child" "I am Sure Mr. D is Going to be nice to our Newest Camper," Chiron Enters the Room, and Mr. D glares at End and leaves Seymour, the stuffed leopard to watch End warily, "Chiron! Chiron!" Mason runs in, "I sorta Kinda Yelled at Thalia…" "MASON!" Thalia Storms in, and End Jumps, Burying her head in my shoulder "You Little! Wait until Artemis Hears about this!" Thalia Screams "Momma Won't get upset at me!" Mason yells back, his silvery-blue eyes glowing a bit "Yeah Well She Will When she finds out what YOU. SAID. TO. ME!" "well you ARE a Faded Lightning Bolt! Thalia Your prime was in the Second Titan War!" Thalia Growls and Chiron Holds her back "Thalia, he's a Child, allow him this" "Fine. THIS. time. Next time," she Drags one finger across her neck and storms out, And I realize that Thalia's Screaming, triggered End's Abuse Flashbacks, and she's sobbing in my arms, "Shh End… Shh, you're okay, they aren't here" I run my hand up and down her back, but she flinches away, Will steps forward to take her, but i back away With a Determined look on my face, Ever since Piper…. No… Not going there… End is my Second Chance. MY purpose in life. Leo had to kill Gaea, Percy Saved Annabeth, Annabeth got the Athena Parthenos, Hazel Got back at Gaea by helping Leo.. Frank Got his girl, and Piper… she… Well Piper Died For a Good Cause…. But I never had a Cause….A reason...sure i Helped… but…. End is my Cause to be A Hero "Jason.. Just let me calm her" "No Will. Piper Quia mortua est mors mihi est ratio est. Im patris sui. Discedite nunc" I slip into latin, and Chiron smiles, clearly proud of the 'Kid who should've been Dead' "Hey, Jase, how about me, you, and End take a walk?" "sure Perce, lemme find out what Chiron wants from me first" I walk over and Chiron starts off "Her mother Contacted me. Saying she wants her youngest Daughter back, she's one of three, Triplets, should i Send Annabeth, Nico, and Connor to fetch them? Or should I-" "Send them. Don't Ask. Take. they abused End. No Idea what they'll do to her sisters. And Send Nico, Cecil, Will and Lou Ellen" he nods and I walk out with Percy

Once on the CHB beach:

"Jason? What do I call you...?" End asks, sitting on my left knee, as Percy Tries his best to Comb and Pull her Long, Unkept hair back "End, you Call Jason, Daddy" Percy Chimes in before I can Say That Exact Sentence "Okay Uncle Per-Cy-Cy" Yeah, I know it's Stupid, but it's Cute, And Uncle Per-Cy-Cy Likes his new name "End, What's this?!" Percy sees a HUGE black-And-blue Bruise on her neck, And it's Swollen Pretty bad "Mama did that...With a Baseball bat…" "okay…. umm…..Who's good at healing besides Will that We trust…. Coach!" I pick up End, who has a Messy bun in her hair Courtesy of Percy, and Percy leads me to Coach Hedge And Mellie's Little Treehouse by the beach and I fly us three up and inside "Cupcakes! Why are you here? I'm no lo- who's the kid?" "This is End.. and We need you to heal Something" I hold End, who is Clutching my Camp Jupiter Shirt tightly He Nods "what is it?" "this Huge Bruise on her neck… From a Baseball Bat, her Moth- Abuser Did it to her." Percy's Eyes are Full of Protection as he Speaks, I guess He Sees a Bit of Annabeth in her, and he wants to keep her Safe, just like I See a bit of Piper in her personality "Yeah, Easy Fix" he walks over and Grabs a Bottle of thick looking Green Goop and applies a Thin layer on her bruise "all fixed. Now Cupcakes, i'll get back to my family now"Coach Shoves us out, clearly enjoying his new child I fly us down to the Poseidon Cabin. I set End on Percy's Bed, and Kiss her Forehead "Uncle Per-Cy-Cy?" "Yeah End?" "Why Is Your hair Black? Not blonde like Everyone Else's? Are you Nico's Brother?" Percy Laughs, because End has like, no filter at all "becase, my daddy, is Poseidon, not Hades like Nico, And The Reason Jason, Annabeth, and Will are Blonde is because their Parents are Blonde" Percy explains to her "oh…. Okay Uncle Per-Cy-Cy" I smile, "Daddy?" "yes End" "where's your Annabeth?" "Umm…..she…. Uh… Died…" End's Eyes Darken a Few Shades "oh…. So your Annabeth Died…. And Now You're Single?" "yes End" she smiles, and hugs me, but pulls back quickly the to pain "owie….." I pick her up again, and we walk back to my cabin, after waving Bye to Percy. where I set her down on my bed and tuck her in, and she instantly falls asleep, and I soon Join her, lying in Thalia's Bunk

4 hours later:

I awake to Screaming "Daddy….. Daddy… Please" End Chokes out between Sobs, I get up and Run to her "shh, My darling, shhh, you're okay" She opens her eyes and Buries herself in my chest, still crying, i rub circles into her back, and we stay there until she calms down enough to breathe normally. "Jason!" Mason Bangs on my door "Come in Mason" "Prophecy…" he breathes out, and im Silent "ok um… i'll be there in a few"

At the big house:

We walk in, And Rachel is Sitting next to Chiron, "guys….. This is Bad.. the prophecy is About Her" Rachel points to End "ok Rach, what is it?" Her eyes glow Green as she Recites it again

"As Long as the threat remains, Kronos' time will be the one to domain, The Camps Will Fall, The daughter must prevail, With help from the eight, A broken Oath Will be shown of might, And None but the Twins, Can help her win, With Athena's girls, And the Big Three's Boys, The Risen one, Will be the one, To make it Eight, Reborn with a Clean Slate, Till Death Does them Part." "Jason…. We know who the prophecy Specifies…. You, End, Liana, Annabeth, Percy, Bianca, Sophia, Allison, and Mason, you Nine MUST leave As soon as Possible, if Kronos is back-" End's Eyes Change to Gold "No! W-We Can't! She's W-Wrong" End Stutters out, "End. Kronos is bad. He HAS to be Killed again" End looks to the picture of Luke on the Wall, Because Chiron keeps a Wall of his Fallen Students "He… he Wanted me to be Happy…." "Darling, Luke Isn't Alive" "But he Protected Me Daddy! Lukie Kept me From Dying…. He Begged and Begged with Hades to keep me live… He Begged!" End is Shaking as her eyes return to normal "Luke Castellan protected you?" End nods… Crying "He Wasn't a Ghost Either! He Hades Let him be Alive again!" Just then, a Huge Crash Ensues outside, and none other than Luke Runs in the Door, panting and Rachel Says"he goes too. He knows Kronos Best" "Where's End. She has to be alive. I tried to hard to-" he spots her "End…" he walks over and Rests one hand on her cheek "Hi Lukie" Luke Smiles at her, him and End Share a Smile " you made it…..you always were my Feisty little Sister weren't you?" Luke looks about 17, 5 years younger than I am, "Hello Luke" I heard stories, and I Tighten my grip on End "I've heard about you from Annabeth" "ah, Annie, she's a Good kid" "She's Not a Kid Anymore. She's married" Luke's Eyes Sparkle "she'll always be a kid to me" Mason, Percy, Bianca, Ally Sophia and Liana, and Annabeth barge in, Annabeth asleep in Percy's Arms, Luke smiles and Percy blocks Annabeth's ears "You." he breathes out "Stay Away from her. Annie is NOT going to get hurt by you again. Neither will I" "Percy, i've changed, Kronos.. He. Corrupted me, i have a sister to care for," He Gestures to End "She can't Be YOUR sister" "Well she is. Hades Came Once to claim her For Death… I begged.. And kept her alive, until she could make it here, then i Came too" "Uncle Per-Cy-Cy?" "Yes End?" "why are you mad at Lukie?" "uh I'm not" Percy Shoots Luke a Death Glare "Darling, how about we go and Check up on your Wounds ok?" "Can Lukie come?" "Yes he can" "Lukie! C'mon!" End Smiles at Luke, Who has One Gold eye and One Blue one, Separated by the scar across his face
