Hi again, here is chapter 7 for you enjoyment!
Piper
Piper was glad for Jason's skill of air. He knocked Sam's dagger out of her hand, before the Eidolon could go in for the kill and end Sam's very short life. Jason caught the dagger, then motioned for Piper to deliver the death blow to the Eidolon. She had learnt her lesson from last time, and now she would banish it from this world and never let it come back.
Sam
I hate meddlers, I wanted to die and they wouldn't even let me die quietly. No! I didn't hate people, no I didn't want to die! The spirit was using my grief to twist my thoughts into negative thoughts. Everyone at camp was my friend, except maybe Clarisse, but I could deal with that. I heard a really sweet voice in the distance, it instantly drew the spirits attention, meaning that I had to listen to it too.
"What is your name?" the voice travelled through the wind, I was about to answer with Sam, but the presence had other ideas.
"Eidolon, my lady," it spoke back to the girl that was walking my way.
"Why are you possessing this girl, Eidolon?" her voice heated the air around me, until I only heard her voice.
"Because the almighty mother told me to cause confusion in this camp and I am the only one left," the spirit spoke through me.
"You are going to leave this Earth, and go back to the Underworld with the rest of your siblings, OK? You will never possess anyone ever again and live peacefully in the Underworld for the rest of eternity. Swear on the river Styx."
"I swear on the river Styx all those conditions you made, goodbye lady with the pretty voice," then the spirit left me and I collapsed. As soon as I regained feeling of my body, I ran to Connor, ignoring the boy holding my dagger and the distance between Connor and I. I just ran to him.
"Connor!" I screamed, as the people surrounding Connor stood between Connor and me. All I knew was that I had to get to him, to see if I had … No I couldn't have … He can't be …
"Move out the way of Miss-I-Have-A-Split-Personality. What do you think she can do without a weapon?" I was actually glad that Clarisse had come over, even if I didn't like my new nickname. "I said move it you freaks, before I drown all of you in the lake or pulverize you with Maimer," obviously this was what Clarisse had named her spear.
"Please," I sobbed, I needed to see Connor, my lifeline, my anchor, my soul mate. I needed to be there for him, as he was there for me when I needed comfort. Everyone hesitated, then obviously they didn't want to die at the hands of Clarisse so they moved away. Only one person remained, he had black hair and sea green eyes, I was sure that I had met him before. He looked directly at me, then all I saw was water, and lots of it.
"Next time you snap, make sure you pick on a worse person, Sam," the boy said, as I spat out the water that had invaded my lungs. Finally, I heard some footsteps getting closer to me and the boy, towards our misunderstanding.
"Be nice Percy! She was possessed by an Eidolon, she didn't attack Connor on purpose," A short blonde girl said. I saw the anger in Percy's face fade away, until he was just an ordinary boy again. He held out his hand, but I didn't take it. Maybe I did hate people. My gut was telling me to trust Percy, otherwise why would Connor introduce him to me but he had just blasted me with water. I was so confused.
"Why did you do that?" I said, a little breathlessly.
"I'm really sorry, but I am pretty protective of my friends," his eyes blazed into mine. Then I heard Connor groan.
I scrambled to Connor's side, two of the three arrows that I shot at him were embedded in his leg and side.
"Connor, I'm so so sorry. Please speak to me Connor," Connor's eyes fluttered open, and that was when my heart began to beat again, fully mended and healthy. As Connor was alive.
Connor
Before I could open my eyes to see where death took me, I heard Sam's voice. It was loud and clear, I was definitely dead. I opened my eyes to see her and only her, the colour of her eyes was back to that mixture of bright green and grey, instead of solid gold.
"Am I dead?" I asked her.
"No Connor," she said, even her voice was back to normal. She placed a cool hand on my cheek, which raised goosebumps all over my body.
"Why are you all wet?" I asked, finally noticing that her make up had been washed from her face and her hair was going curly as it dried. She looked beautiful.
"Percy decided that it was necessary to almost drown me," Her smile silenced all my other thoughts, until all I could think of was her. Her eyes, her hair, her lips, her hand on my cheek. Every thought was of her. Instantly I sat up, the pain in my side made itself known then. I screamed as the river of pain flooded through my body, drowning me in torture. My vision went hazy, then Sam was gone, she was replaced with images of Chiron and the hospital room. I remember screaming for Sam, I needed her. She was the antidote to my pain, my morphine.
Sam
Connor wailed my name as Chiron took him away. Tears were spilling down my face as Connor struggled against the iron grip of the centaur, his pain flooded through me, he needed me but Chiron told me not to follow. And that was when Clarisse decided that water and electricity was a good way to silence me.
Clarisse
"What the hell did you do that for Clarisse? Percy just soaked her, now you just fried her!" Leo said, appearing from behind the Aphrodite cabin.
"I … I don't know Leo," Clarisse was actually shocked and a tear trailed down her broad face. "I didn't mean to fry her, something just whispered the idea into my head, so I did it." Clarisse's face turned even more pale. "Gaia. No, I actually listened to that bitch!"
Please review, as I would like to know your personal opinion on my story!
Sam xox ;D
