That night as when I was splitting up my food to give to the gods, I of course prayed to the gods for answers. The weirdest thing ever happened, I herd and invisible whisper in my ear 'Sometimes they come and sometimes you have to find them out yourself.' As soon as it came, it went... At first I thought that the delicious smell of the burnt offerings were just getting to me, nut then I knew it just had to be real.
I didn't really know what it meant but I had a feeling it was about answers. I know that the whole invisible whispering seems really realistic and everything, but trust me it really happened! And it was weird.
Two weeks passed and I had some answers. When my eyes fuzz out that's when I'm Percy, I have his powers, and strength. But we have no idea why I thought I was him. Annabeth and I talked a lot about a way to figure out whats happening. We looked at almost every similar Greek myths, and none of them were the same as what was going on. Annabeth was super busy a lot too, she was redesigning Olympus. But when she needed a new idea I tried my best to help her. I guess we were friends, but I hope I wasn't being to clingy. I had told her she was my only friend, she didn't take it the wrong way, she just smiled and said, "Well I'm happy to be your friend." I smiled with her. Without even knowing it I started to grow my favorite flower. My smile slowly faded, I could sense him coming, a headache was starting up.
"I should go, hes coming, and I don't want you to see me like....well Percy will tell you." she nodded. I turned to walk away but I flinched, he was coming my way. Think happy thoughts, think -yeah nice calm ocean on a bright day. Happiness was covered. He passed me and I kept walking, but he stopped, turned around and ran after me.
"Look," he started "I have fought to many monsters to count, but you... you're a battle I'll never win." I stared at him, did he just say what I think he said?
"Huh? OK this time you look Percy A) never ever say that to girl again unless you like her, just don't OK? And B) what do you mean?" Boys, cant live with 'em, can't live without 'em.
"I saw your fear Isabel. It was Annabeth and I, in my thoughts. And when you see us together. I'm gonna say this now, but Annabeth and me are none of your business so just stay out of it OK? And stay away from us." Oh my gods. What is his problem? Why are guys so stupid?! And aren't girls suppose to be saying that? Part of me wanted to murder him, another wanted to cry, and another part was shouting 'Huh?!'.
"You don't get it do you?" he just looked at me sorta surprised I talked back after his little speech.
"I thought so. Your really smart Percy Jackson, but your really stupid too. And Annabeth is my friend, my only friend no way I'm giving her up. You know better than anyone how good of a friend she is." I left my lips flat, in a strait line. I turned and left. Once I knew I was free of the Percy barrier, I dropped the happy scene. There was no happy thing about this, I might as well been in a nightmare so whats the point even trying to be happy?
I went to the fighting arena, which is totally unlike me. I grabbed a random sword, I didn't care if it was out of balance, I didn't even put my hair up, I just needed to let it out. I started fighting on the hay stuffed dummies. I was winning against them, well of course, but I felt like I actually fight. I slashed, and stabbed, and spinned. Every strike a perfect cut through the armor. The sword glided in a perfect arc every time I slashed. Even if I was ten feet away and through it, the blade would cut like melted butter straight through it's straw heart.
It was a weird feeling, being able to fight. It felt like at that very moment I could do anything, challenge anyone and...win. I had never felt this way before, part of it was addicting, the other part was saying 'What the heck?'. I suddenly realized something. I looked in the reflection of the blade. Sure enough my eyes fuzzed out white, like they had been rolled back and now all you can see is the whites. But I knew this was a different fuzz, the kind of fuzz that if you turned all the lights off they would...glow.
It wasn't me fighting, it was Percy. The Percy in me was active in the day. It comes when I'm mad, or protective. 'and sometimes you must find them out yourself'. I understood now, the voice was telling me that I would have to figure it out the answers I needed most. Like it was a warning.
All of a sudden I herd the invisible whisper again 'Be careful' it said. I saw purplish dots dance across my eyes, more clouded around until the purple blackness claimed me.
Black. I don't want to see it again. I hate the color now. I've been seeing to much of it now. How much more blackness could I take? Or how much more would come? I didn't want an answer this time, knowing my future would make it worse...it always dose. I'm usually a happy person, well a lonely happy person. My mind doesn't like the dark. You don't know what the outside world is doing. You don't know where your going, or where you'll end up. All you know is blackness....
