Percy POV
Pain lurched through my body. All I could see was black, I tried to stand up, but I fell back down. I could hear people laughing at me. RIP! No wonder I couldn't see! I was blindfolded! I was bound and gagged, right in front of a massive throneswith a weird bird mutant in one of them. There was a huge, and by that I mean huge, crowd of weird animal mutants, people, flashes of light, basically some weird stuff.
"Feeling comfortable? Eh?"laughed the bird mutant. I nervously looked around and saw Annabeth and Nico, also bound and gagged, right next to me.
"MmmmmMmmmm! Mmmmmmmm! Mmmm!" I screamed. Well, I tried.
"Hahahaha!"laughed the crowd.
"Horus dear, you should un-gag them!"
"Fine! Sobek, un-gag them!
"Right to it!"hissed a weird crocodile mutant.
"Let us go you little.. animals!"shouted Nico.
"Yeah! Let us go!" I shouted.
"Tut, tut! Never, you are our spoils of war, our prisoners!"
"Let us go!" Nico and I shouted. Some red dude went up the bird mutant and whispered something in his ear. A grin slowly spread across his face.
"Sure! We'll let you go! Set!" The red dude bounded forward and grabbed Nico who muffled a scream. He then picked him up and tied him to the ceiling. The red dude the signaled to some other mutants who brought forward a boiling pot of water.
"Get me down!" screamed Nico, who was desperately struggling to break his bonds. Annabeth's eyes widened as she realized what they were about to do.
"Stop it! Do it to me first!"I screamed, not thinking. The bird mutant then nodded at the red man. The red man then took Nico down and grabbed me.
"No! Percy!"screamed Nico. Annabeth's face filled with horror, then a smirk slowly spread over her face, she knew what I was about to do. Red dude then tied me to a ceiling.
"Let you go, huh? Sure, we'll let you go, over this pot of boiling water!" the other mutants snickered. Red man produced his sword, I was trying my best not to smile. Red man then slashed down at the ropes, and I fell into the tub of boiling water, hard. Remembering to keep my act, I pretended to scream in pain. One of the mutants then said something like mom, a weird symbol glowed in the air, and a ton of water splashed down on me. I then used the water and threw it at the mutants.
"Agggghhhhh! Running water!" lots of the mutants screamed.
"Idiots! We're in the Duat, silly!" BOOM! The water hit them, full force. I quickly drew Riptide and slashed at Nico and Annabeth's bonds. We ran to the exit, leaving behind the throng of screaming mutants. Too late did we realize there was no floor beyond the exit, we fell into a deep chasm.
