Once again I am fighting against a bunch of idiots. This time I am fighting against 15 people including their boss, or in my definition, a king of morons. I didn't start this fight for your information. They wanted to fight me since all over New York, I was known as the Crazy Panther of the Sea. I don't know why they call me by that name since I do not live nearby any ocean or river but, that name sounded perfect for me.
What I heard from gangsters when I start fighting is that my body starts to glow green and when I attack, my moves are so quick I looked like a real panther. My moves are so quick and fast I can't even run away from police officers. The police always look out for me, but never had the chance to catch me. Every time I finish beating up gangsters, they suddenly shows up. I like it though; in my opinion this looks like a cat and a scary mouse.
It gets very boring at times after I beat up useless guys. All the guys I had beaten up are so weak. I want to get more stronger but, I only got a bit stronger every time there's a huge group of gangsters fighting me.
Now I can defeat about 10 gangsters at ease and I made some enemies. I don't care about it; I like releasing all this negative feelings and just pretend to be the good son in front of my mother. I think she knows that I am not actually all smiles to her but, she doesn't mind. The very last time I had ever smile was when I went to the monark for the summer when I was 5 years old.
Ever since that, I put on my poker face and just pretend to ignore everything in life. I hated my father for leaving me like this but, when my mother told stories about him and when I go swimming in water, my hate decreased somehow. It's like somebody tame my fragile little heart. OK, now lets go back to the story.
I started picking fights with any person I see; since you know I wanted to release all this stress and try to forget anything that happened to me in my personal bitter life. My mother married this fuckin' piece of crap of a man who's name is Gabe Ugliano .
At first he seemed nice, but it only lasted the first time we met him. He smelled like shit that I nicknamed him Smelly Gabe. He played poker every frickin' night after my mother leaves to work and I have to give him money to play! That really pisses me off but, I can't ignore him since he threaten me that he will rape my mother and throw me to the orphanage house. I should have beat the crap out of him for saying that but if I did then his "buddies" will beat the crap out of me.
Anyways, I gotten my nickname '"The Crazy Panther of The Sea" after I defeated about 100 gangsters under 24 hours. I did that because Gabe had hit my mother right in front of me and I couldn't stop him from doing it. My mother warned me not to react by beating him up. This was the strongest and darkest hatred I had against Gabe so, I released it by beating up all the gangsters I saw in New York City. Yeah, I know, I looked like a serial killer, but I've never ever attempted to become a murderer so, I always leave those bastards alive somehow and just leave them behind.
After I beat the crap out of ALL of the gangsters; this made me known across the nation since the police found me in the middle of beating up half dead people, which they were covered with bruises and blood. I was lucky enough to get away from 10 police cars when some stranger grabbed me by the arm and kidnapped me. That stranger dragged me into abandon alley. I wasn't through with releasing all my hatred. I tried to beat this stranger up but, he beat me up instead. He beat me up and tied me like I was nothing. This person was so frickin strong, his body looked like it made up of steel!
I tried to rip through from his grip, but it just made it worse. He punched me in the stomach and I passed out. I woke up in a abandon building, tied up with a thick steel around my body and including my mouth. This steel tasted like dried blood. Eck, I thought. That bastard covered my eyes with a cloth, which felt like he ripped it off from my shirt. I tried to focus on my hearing to sense where I am but, I can't hear anything except the breath of that bastard. I ignore his presense but, the only other thing I can hear is the wind and it sounded like there's a hurricane around here.
A deep frightening voice said, "I know who you are, Percy Jackson. I've been watching you and looking for you for a while. I can see how strong you are boy but, I see that you are mentally weak." I shouted, " Who cares that I am weak or not! Who the heck are you to judge me? Let me go already!" "No you little brat! You will show respect to me and let me finish dammit!" He growled.
Then, I suddenly felt my arm being burned alive. I screamed and said,"Alright, alright! I will listen to you so please stop it!" The burning feeling stopped. I exhaled quickly and was about to cry from the pain but, I didn't. I won't let him see my weak side even if he claims that he knows me.
"I do know you boy, and yes, I can read minds, so I know all of your secrets and about your mother." He sneered. "What? Don't you ever dare bring my mother into my problems, you fuckin' bastard! I won't let you touch her even if you have to kill me!" I roared. I can't believe he had the nerve to threaten me by using my mother..Wait a minute, why would he threaten me since I never did any harm to him? I thought quietly.
"I threaten you because I can give you something that will help you and your mother but, in return you have to become my lieutenant in my army." He coldly explained. I stared at him, trying to read his expression to see if he was lying or not. What is he talking about? I would never become his lieutenant even if he has to torture me but, on second thought how will this help my mother? I thought to myself.
That bastard studied my expression while I try to decide on what I should say, so I finally said,"Why are you desperate to make me your lieutenant? For one, I do not know you. Two, you are a creepy psychopath person who threaten to use my mother and three, you claim that you know me for my entire life which sounded like you were a stalker so...?Why?" I simply said to him.
"...You are a very special case boy...I know more than you think and I know about your weak little father; me and his family are enemies. I want you to lead my fight. With you, you can try to get the revenge you wanted" He said sarcastically. What? He knows about my real father? Wow. He is like a crazy stalker. The moment he finished saying that, winds howled outside; crashing and banging the windows and it shattered into little pieces, trying to blow that bastard away, but he flicked one finger to the wind and the wind automatically stopped. Okay...that was weird and unhuman of him and the wind.
I replied, "Revenge? Why would I wanted revenge against a person that I never knew who had abandon me and my mother?" I spitefully said. Every word I said, more anger built inside and the more I had trying to bend the steel. I can't believe he had the nerve to say that right in front of my face when I hate my own damn father! I thought angerly. He chuckled to himself and said, "See? He had abandon you and your mother Percy. He left you to suffer while watching your mother getting abused by that worthless thing. Can you see? By helping me you can make him feel your pain! So do you agree with me or not?"
I stared at him and I frowned. What will I accomplish if I get my revenge? I know my mother "love" that scumbag of a father, but if I do kill him, my mother will not forgive me and she might break apart. I can't betray my mother like this; she sacrificed so much for me. I need to repay my debt to her by trying to be away from her so Gabe won't be trying to rape her or beat the crap out of her right in front of me. I looked back at that bastard and I said,"I want something in return and then, I will help you."
That bastard sighed and rubbed his forehead a bit then he said,"Alright boy, what about I give you $10,000 every month for your mother and yourself? Is that a good deal for you, little brat?" Wow. How the hell can he get all that money? I can't accept that, but if I think about it, my mother won't have to work her butt off to support me and that asshole Gabe and then she would be able to get her GED degree so she can get started on her book she's writing too. If that happens, then my mother won't suffer to pay the bills for my school. I should accept this offer, but if I back out, I know he will kill my mother, so the only thing I have to do is accept it.
I nodded in agreement and he said coolly,"Alright give me your word and I will give you my word. Repeat after I say mine. I, Mark Castellen, will give Perceus Jackson money to support him and his family while I will not harm him or his family." After he said it, I said expressionlessly, "I, Perceus Jackson, will become Mark Castellen's support as being his lieutenant and I won't ever go back on my word." Suddenly, a great menace gust of wind blew between me and Mark Castellen and then it vanished instantly. Wow, that was freaky. I thought to myself in horror.
I looked to Mark Castellen and he was smirking really weird like he knew that I will accept this offer. Well, I guess he was right, but now this oath will not be forgotten. I am only doing this to protect my mother from any harm whatsoever
Mark started walking toward me with a dagger which I started seeing his eyes turing colder and colder by the minute. He came closer and I saw his features; his long dirty blond looks like it hasn't been washed for days, his body is muscular like a wrestler, he has dark blue eyes, he looks like he's about 6'1 ft tall, he has a white shirt covered with dirt and stained blood, and his pants looks torn and worn out.
Before he was about to kill me I shouted,"You bastard don't forget your oath that you won't harm me in any types of way!"
"You idiot boy, I am not going to kill you, I am just going to break that steel off of you." He said in a annoyed tone. He grabbed my shoulder and then yank the steel out of my body. I cursed him out and he just smiled for a moment. Then, he squeezed my wrist and then slowly tore off the steel off of my wrist. I looked at my wrist and it showed blood and it stinged badly and I bit my lip. Damn, I shouldn't try to break free if I had known this will happened to me.
Mark said to me, "From now on you will addressed me as Commander Castellen and whenever I summon you, you will come striaght to the top of the Empire State Building and will train with me to become my lieutenant. Also you will not ask questions unless I let you. Do you understand me boy?"
I replied, " Yes Sir. "
"Don't ever try to attempt to try to gain freedom or go rebellious against me, do you understand boy?" He barked. "Yes sir." I replied in a emotionless tone.
Now that I think about it, in my past I should had let Mark kill me instead of making that oath that I had regret. That's the oath that had caused me to lose my precious brother, Kaien Shiba's life and many of my best friends who had helped me to end that incident . I will go to town and hunt down my recruiting warriors and beaten up gangsters. I walked silently in edge and deadliest part of New York to find people or gangsters to beat up .
Suddenly, a voice said, "Look at this boys!What do we have hear? A weak little brat? Lets beat up this shrimp, should we boys?" I turned around and see a group of mean looking boys following a taller and stronger guy about 6'3 ft tall. I guess the person was the one who said that.
His followers laughed and snickered and all of them said, "Of course, bring it on shrimp!" I stared at them trying to analyze on who should I attack first and it clicked to me, I should attack the leader then those bastards. I sneered and laugh out aloud. The leader said, "What the fuck are you laughing about?"
I stared at them and a huge freakish smile grew on my face and I quickly charged at them.
