Welcome to the 2nd official Chapter to. . . A Date with Torture! R&R! Sorry if it's too fast paced. Don't kill me! *runs from all the weapons pointed at her*

Annabeth POV:

A few days had passed since Sally and Paul brought Percy to Camp, and he was still in the worst of the sickness, his fever was so high that he lapsed into a coma. All of Chiron and Apollo's healing couldn't help, and water, nectar, nor ambrosia worked. He looked really bad. He was really pale, but his cheeks reflected his high fever, and all the muscle he's built up from fighting, was slowly deteriorating. He also was a bit on the skinny side, from not being able to eat. I was sitting with him before going back to my cabin before activities began.

"Hey, Seaweed Brain," I said, sitting in the chair next to his bed, taking his hand, through which I could feel his fever. "I came to visit you before activities start for the days. I can't wait before we're back to sparring each other. No one else is as good as you." Then I heard the Conch sound. "Well, Perce, off to start the day." I finished, putting a gentle kiss on his knuckles, then his forehead.


I was now sitting in my cabin when I heard the door open. "Annabeth?" I heard a sensitive voice call out. I turned around to see a tear-stained Piper. "I know you're worried about Percy, but I just got a letter from Camp Jupiter. Jason's been kidnapped. It happened last night. I'm worried about him, Annabeth, this was supposed to be our date night." she finished, before collapsing on my bed, crying.

"We'll find him, alright?" I said to her, following her to my bed. "He will be okay." I finished, rubbing her back in an attempt to soothe her.

"Are you sure?" she asked, voice muffled by my pillow.

"We WILL find him." I said forcefully.

Jason POV:

I woke up in a dark cell, feeling a bit light-headed. I wonder where I am. I thought to myself.

"Hello, Jason Grace." a voice behind me said, making me jump to my feet, ignoring my throbbing head.

"Who are you?" I asked the stranger, trying my best to look intimidating.

"Just a person you forgot to kill during the fight with Mother Gaea. My name is Trey Hendrickson." he replied, smiling the worst smile I'd seen in my life. "You may have killed my mistress, but you haven't permanently killed my new master."

"Who is your new master?" I questioned.

"The one who bears the sky, Atlas." he said. "I also forgot to mention. You will soon have a roommate, by the name of Perseus Jackson."

"Why Percy?" I said.

"Master Atlas has learned that my poison has worked. He shall soon be taken from Chiron's safety. And I shall have him for Master's revenge." he said, smiling like he learned he could celebrate his birthday every year for a decade. Short version. Kinda creepy, and I know Octavian.

I couldn't help wanting to punch my captor in the mouth just so he couldn't relay the order to kidnap Percy. Granted, I knew the reasons. He and pretty much everyone at Camp Half-Blood, plus Frank and Hazel when I was at Camp Jupiter, told me what he accomplished .

~The Next Day~

I woke up to a sharp sting in my side. "Rise and shine, Mr. Grace." I heard Trey tell me. "Time to start."

The torture was horrible. Trey's favorite was a whip that had spikes with a special poison on them so the cuts couldn't close. Every time I didn't scream with a blow I would receive five more. Soon, my whole back, plus my shoulders and a few lucky shots to my chest, were all bleeding pretty bad.

"Well, Grace, you passed this time." Trey said, giving me a final kick to my chest.

I finally let myself relax when I heard the door to my cell click shut, but my relaxation didn't last long, because another person came into my room.

"No. No. No." I repeated, trying to crawl away from the new man who just entered the room.

"It's alright. I'm not Trey. I'm Marco. I can help you. Alright?" he said.

"Can you get me out?" I asked, trying not to sound to desperate or whiney, but the pain and blood loss was kind of starting to take its toll.

"Not yet. I'm sorry. But I can heal you. But we have to be careful. Trey doesn't know I'm a healer. He just knows that he can torture people longer." Marco replied, reaching into the bag he brought, and pulling out a vial of sparkly blue potion. "I need you to drink this, okay? It'll help. I can also stop the bleeding, and clean you up. Do you want me to clean you up?"

I nodded. Getting cleaned up and healed sounded good. I just decided to lay there because I had a feeling this was the first day of many that Marco would have to do this.

So I laid there quietly as he cleaned all the blood off me and healed what he could, but I still thought about Percy. "What about Percy?" I asked, growing tired from the gentle motions of Marco's hand.

"Trey's given me the order to 'collect one Perseus Jackson from one Camp Half-Blood'. I know who he is and what he's done and why Trey wants him." Marco said, hanging his head dejected.

"You know Trey's poisoned him, right?" I said, suddenly remembering what he said.

"I know. I happen to have a few vials of the antidote. I can give you one to give to him when he comes here, alright?" he said, reaching into his bag and pulling out a vial of dark green potion.

"Are you sure you're not trying to trick me?" I asked, looking suspiciously at the concoction.

"If I wanted Percy dead. I wouldn't have said I had an antidote." he said, walking out of the room.

Before he could make it to the door Trey walked in. "Time to greet your new roommate, Jason Grace." he said, laughing.

I could see Marco's face and I knew that once Percy was here, we'd need to get him out of here as soon as possible.

Sorry it's late, and if it's fast paced, sorry. Please Review! :)
