Chapter Three- PERCY
This chapter is really short. It's a brief explanation from Percy's POV. And you may be wondering who Silena is…(not the Aphrodite girl that died, I'll tell you that)
Look, I didn't want to be captured. At all. Especially in the underworld.
I've been trapped in this net thingy for ten years. The special pomegranate seeds that would keep you alive for a year (Thank the gods!) was what I was living on. Nico was sleeping, as usual. Mrs. O'Leary was whimpering, sadly looking around.
It's a good thing that the guard was taking a nap.
"Psst. Nico," I whispered. Nico didn't flinch but Mrs. O'Leary came to me.
"Hiya, girl," I said. She roofed loudly, and I shushed her. "No, don't need to be loud. Just you, me, and Nico are in this tiny cell," I say. I really wanted to break free of this rope tied around me. I could barely feel my arms and every little movement would tire me out.
Nico mumbled something like, "Bianca…I did…let me play one more game…" is his sleep. He looked terrible. I mean, he's already kinda pale after so many days in the underworld, but he gotten paler. So sickly pale. He had somewhat of a beard. And he needed a haircut. And a shower.
Then again, we've been stuck here for the same amount of time. I wonder how I looked like.
I badly wanted to go home. I missed Annabeth. I wonder how much little Alice had grown. I wonder what happened to Silena. She was so sick when I left. And I wonder how the baby was doing. He (I was pretty sure the baby is a boy) wasn't born at the time.
That was ten years ago. I want to see my family again.
But for now, I'm stuck here in this stupid prison.
