Poseidon's daughter

Chapter 11

Pensieve 2

Pensieve

That night he open the room and dragged Sairah out. Sairah was confused about Bob reaction. Next thing Sairah knew was being shoved into a car and driven to a deserted place. She was then dragged out of the car and pushed into the house. Bob entered the house and locked it after him.

Sairah was terrified she was trembling with fear she crawled to another corner of the room away from Bob. He walked up to her and knelt beside her, playfully ran his fingers through her hair. Firstly smiling and and then anger engulfed his face and changed expression. He caught the hair that were in his hand pulled them, Sairah shouted. Sairah was scared she closed her eyes. Bob then hit her on her head and went inside a room and came out and dragged Sairah into it.

Sairah now noticed her surrounding she was in the bathroom. The bathtub was filled with water and the switch board was filled with wires. There was a strange machine attached to it . She was then forced into the bathtub filled with water.

Bob tied her legs and hands to the legs of the tub and stuffed Sairah's mouth with cloth. Sairah knew that this wasn't good and it shouldn't be like this. She begged him to stop.

Bob reacted as if he couldn't see her nor could he hear her. Bob then faced the machine and turned some switches. Next he dipped two wires into the water and switched on the machine.

Current rushed through Sairah's body, penetrating every cell in her body. The pain was unparalleled. Sairah screamed and shouted in pain and agony. Bob switched off the machine.

"This is the pain I feel for what you have done."

With watery eyes he said "You took away my daughter Sue and maddened my wife Jane. And were up to taking her life."

He said switching on the machine while , Sairah screamed even harder the pain was unbearable and Bob had increased the intensity. Sairah shook her head trying to tell him that it wasn't her intention.

He switched off the machine and questioned Sairah "Why ? Why did you do it? Sue loved you didn't she , then why did you kill her? What wrong have we done to you that you took away our life, Sue. You killed Sue , it was all your fault." And again switched it on.

Bob blamed Sairah for death of his daughter.

After a few seconds which seemed like hours together to Sairah Bob again switched off the machine.

"You are not dying so easily. Every time Jane feels pain. You will pay for it."

With this he cut open one of the tied bonds and left the room with the door banging. This gave chills running down her spine. Bob locked the house and left.

Sairah was so tired and exhausted that she couldn't lift a finger but still, she gathered all strength she had to open the other knot. After a few trials she was able to open all three of them.

She tried to move out of the tub. But she wasn't able to. She tried again harder this time and was successful. Yet she fell on the floor with with her face down. She was too exhausted to even open her eyes. There she lay for the rest of the night. That is were Bob found her the next night. And the whole traumatizing incident repeated itself. Screaming, shouting and pleading to Bob to stop. And yet again none of her pleas were listened to. Bob again left her that night in the tub with one bond cut.

The next morning Sairah woke up firstly astonished of her surrounding but everything came back to her in a few moments. She tried to open up the bonds and after a few trials she was free in her cage. Out of the tub she fell. She tried to sit up with her back to the tub. Her head was throbbing.

All she was able to do was sleep because all her pain could register was pain, severe pain. She closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep. After two three hours she woke up. She tried to get up but all she was able to do was crawl. Soon after some tried she got up and rummaged for an exit any door or unlatched window. Her search proved out to be futile. She tried to open the main door to escape but no luck.

Again came the night. Sairah now dreaded the night. She hid herself behind the old couch. She was trembling with fear when she heard the keys enter into the key hole and the unlatching of lock. All she could do was hope that it she wasn't found out. Sadly, she was and the traumatizing repeated it self again in the bathtub.

Bob didn't return the next night. Sairah was scared to death but still tried to find a way out of this prison all the windows were jammed and closed shut. Sairah was unable to find an exit. It seemed that the door was the only way in and her way out.

Next night Bob returned and Sairah was again thrown into the bathtub. The next morning Sairah woke up although she had lost all hope of getting out of this hell, she still tried to open the door

And it did.

Bob had forgot to lock the door. Sairah ran away from the house that had held her prisoner for 120 hours which seemed no less than a decade and that is the date when Nico and Percy found her.

Pensieve ended.

Nico POV

There were watery eyes all-around. Everyone was shocked to hear about Sairah's dreadful past. Loss of her mother, her brother Nicolas, her sister Sue, living in hell then her cat being murdered in front of her eyes and herself being tortured by the element she can control.

I glanced at my watch to find that 3 hours had passed.

"Sairah should have been here by this time."

"That girl has really been through alot."

"She's missing."

Questions were flying all-around them. What if she gets caught... What if he...

"Hopefully she's not gone into the wrong place."

"She wouldn't have. Even she would have. I'll find her." I said.

"I am going to get her back."

Percy stood up "Nico she is not only your but also my sister too and our friend too. We'll help you out but where are you going to search her?"

Both Thalia and Annabeth looked at each other and said the at once "Near Sue, its Sue's birthday today"

All four of them ran. But they weren't the only ones looking for someone. Danger awaited them in the graveyard.

In New York they reached the graveyard. It was huge.

Annabeth said " Scatter out, that way we'll cover larger distance in shorter time. Sue Page is what we are looking for"

They didn't need to be told twice. they all went in different directions.

"It's here." called Thalia. They rushed to her to find a bouquet placed below the name. And another bouquet dropped nearby. It seemed that Sairah wasn't the only one who had come to see Sue.

They then found drag marks. They saw the marks and then saw each other as if confirming their own unpleasant thoughts. They all were thinking the same thing

"Bob" all of them said at once.

A voice boomed " What have we got here, Jackson,Annabeth,Thalia and our Di Angelo"

"Show yourself Luke?" Said Percy uncapping his Riptide.

"What's the hurry Jackson? Why don't you play with a friend of mine. Or why don't all of you have some fun."

Suddenly Percy, Nico, Thalia, Annabeth were surrounded by a crowd of monsters all eager to kill them.

"Why Luke why are you not here fighting by our side and there fighting against us. Luke what you ought to do will be futile and dangerous to not only you but all of us." said Thalia.

Nico elbowed Percy

"We don't have time for this. Sairah needs us now and we can't keep her waiting after what we just came across Bob. On my signal grab their hands. Promise me Percy you will do everything you can to save her. This is the only way out. I have to. For Sairah." said Nico with pain pouring through his eyes.

"But how will you do it. it's afternoon." Questioned Percy

"Just do as you I told you"said Nico

Percy could only give a nod. Annabeth couldn't understand what she had just listened. Nico was about to shadow travel in broad light. She just trusted Nico and was ready to hold Thalia's and Nico's hand on the signal.

"Kill the boys and leave the girls"ordered Luke to his army.

Percy was waiting eagerly for Nico's signal.

"Now" he screamed to Percy. After this everything happened in fraction of seconds. The monsters jumped over them. Nico grabbed Percy . Annabeth grabbed Percy and Thalia. Percy grabbed Thalia and Nico. And through the shadows of the monsters that were over him Nico shadow traveled.

This was just an idea that had struck Nico. Nico wasn fully aware that this shadow travel will drain him completely. He was too young for this kind of exhausting act. With this they reached their destination and Nico collapsed.

Until next time
