Luke's POV
A few hours later, by the Ares Cabin:
"You're Too weak to even Throw a Punch!" a Voice Rings out from behind the Ares Cabin "S-Stop! Please!" End's Voice Cries out "End…" I run to Rescue my little Sister and I find Clarisse's Son Beating up MY sister "You rely on Jason to keep you safe!" I see Him kick her in the Stomach And she Just Curls up, Taking it, like She did when she Was younger "Hey! Get away from her!" He Sees me and Runs off "Mom! I'm seeing Ghosts!" I run over and kneel down, End is Bleeding and Bruised, and She's Sobbing "I-I…. Lukie.. I-I couldn't Stop him… I let it happen… I froze up…." "shh, it's okay End" I pick her up "Jason! Percy! Somebody!" I yell, it's late, and A meeting is going on so I head to the Hermes Cabin- My Cabin, and Set her down one of the many beds "L-Luke?" I hear Connor's Voice behind me "yeah yeah, hello Con, where's Trav?" I ask my half-brother "at the meeting- oh my gods… is that… the new girl?" "Yeah. she's my sister" Connor gapes "S-She's Your Sister… Wait You Died… I WATCHED Your Funeral Pyre Burn Luke… I saw the Ashes Settle.." "I was allowed a Second Chance Con.. Just… Help me!"
End Is sobbing, I remember the beatings I got… those were nothing compared to hers "ok um.." Connor Grabs my old Med-pack i kept for Emergencies "you still have that? 6 years later?"he nods "Yeah.. i couldn't part with it" I smile "Lets Fix up End, then I am SO. killing Clarisse" we both laugh "Lukie…. I'm so s-sorry… I-I… I shoulda s-stopped him" a tear Traces her cheek "Shh, I know you couldn't stop it" Connor looks at me and mouths "What happened to her?" I mouth back "Beatings, worse than mine" He Blinks back tears "Lukie… it hurts" End's Crystal blue eye is Clouded with Tears, and I Blink back my own "I know, i know" Travis walks in "hey Connor the meeting's ove- Luke?" I nod and go back to Patching up End "Guys…. Go get Jason…. And Percy… NOW" they nod and Run out of the Room, while i Comfort my Sobbing sister "shh End, i know" Percy and Jason come running in "Daddy….. I-I couldn't stop him…" "we know Darling, we know"
She continues sobbing as Jason wraps his arms around her, Jason whom i just met, and already Trust him enough take care of End -one of the 3 lights of my life, my little End, Bolt and Emma- "hey, Jason, Can we talk?" i ask him, and he nods so we walk outside and talk "I presume you heard Stories about me?" He nods "Annabeth Describes you as a hero" i smile "She still thinks i'm a hero… well, i wasn't. I was Corrupt, Kronos Promised me Annabeth's love….. And Well he also promised me End's Well being…. gods i love that girl" "Me too Luke.. me too, she has sisters?" I nod "Bolt and Emma…. They weren't beaten AS bad…. But still quite badly" I sigh…. Remembering the giggling triplets, and the Shine in their eyes, i was seven…. nine years later, I'm fighting for custody of the other two, but, i'm still too young.. But Jason isn't…..
"Hey, jason?" he looks up "Yeah?" "would…. Would you be willing to adopt End, Bolt, And Emma?" "Your 16?" I nod "Yeah… I know. I look older…" "How about i adopt all four of you" Jason's smile is growing Wider by the second "You don't have to… I know you're only doing it to keep us four together" I tug my sleeves down, just to hide the Bruises and Scars from growing up, and the newer ones that i begged to take from End, because she's had enough pain "look, If i wanted to keep you four together i'd only adopt Emma, End, and Bolt, and let you visit them often, but I WANT to repay you for keeping her alive" I smile "Thanks a lot Jason" He puts an arm around me, a fatherly gesture "Don't Sweat it Luke, You four are Graces now"
Percy comes out "Hey, End's Better, but she's still Pretty shaken up" he says "Mk. me and luke have some news for you guys" "ok Jase, Pleeease tell me, don't make me wait" He gives me puppy eyes "fine. I'm Adopting End, Emma, Bolt, And Luke" Percy smiles and then Frowns "does that mean Im Luke's Uncle now?" "Yes it Does Perce, and go tell Annabeth, Bianca, Mason, Ally, Sophia and Liana, that we're leaving in a bit to start the Quest….. And i know where to Start. The Wrecked Princess Andromeda"
I back away, remembering what happened on that Ship…. Panic Sets in, "L-Lord Kronos Please… let me V-Visit her again" the memories Flood back, and i can't stop them "No. you need to FIND AND KILL PERCY JACKSON" "B-But.. End.. S-She needs me" A voice Shakes me out of my memories "Luke!" it's Jason calling me.. "Luke! Are you Okay?" his Eyes are full of concern, and I realize that I'm on the ground, and that he's kneeling over me "Y-yeah…" i stutter… "Just D-Don't Mention That S-Ship again… please" i look into his Crystal blue eyes, "we won't. Let's go grab End and the others, then Head out, Percy Knows where to go" I nod, and get up, walking in to see A Very Shaken up End "Lukie… Daddy…. If i W-Wanted I could of…"her eyes flash gold "stopped him… I-I'm Sorry" We walk over, and i Pick her up, because she can Barely move due to injuries "hey, Darling, You, Emma, and Bolt, and Luke are Going to be My Children, Officially, then Your Mother and Step-Daddy CAN'T get you anymore" Jason says and She Smiles and i run a hand Through her black hair "Ya hear that End? You get to Be With Ja-Daddy, and you get to stay with me too" I see her Eyes shimmer a Beautiful Swirl of blues in one eye, and various shades of black and grey in the other, and stay that way "So beautiful Travis" I hear Sobbing behind me, it's Connor and Travis, Those Softies "I know Connor! So Cute" they sniffle and Cry in each other's Shoulders "c'mon guys, we gotta head out. To the last known Location of the… Um.. Ship"
we all walk back to the big house, and are Greeted By the other members of the Quest "Ready to Go Guys?" Annie Asks, "Yeah. We are Annie" i Pipe up "okay. Who's Doing a Luke Impression again? Not Cool" "no Annie," I walk past Jason, and Percy, And Annie Sees me "L-Luke?" she Breathes out "Yeah" I smile, remembering the 7 year old who Fought a Cyclops with a Mallet, and had Bruises From her Father and Step-mother…. "You… You're Married now.. All grown up.." "lukie?" "yes End?" "Auntie Anna… you knew her?" "Yes i did, when she was your age" I boop her nose, Receiving a giggle "Yeah… H-He.. he did.." Annie smiles widely "you have a Sister…." I look down "Yeah.. I was FIghting For you and her in that war.." Jason Smiles at me "I'm glad to know you weren't Selfish Luke" "thanks Annie" "No problem Lucas" We walk to the van that has Delphi Strawberry Services Printed on the side, and Percy gets in the Front Seat, and starts Driving.
