Okayerz! Next chapter is here! Yes!
Chapter 11
Carla and I sneaked past a couple of guards and ended up in front of a large door. We stared at it for a long time until we decided me open it. Just as I touched the door, I heard a yelled.
"Hey!" A familiar voice shouted.
I turned only to be facing Juliet in armor, looking at us angrily with a dark blue dagger in her hand.
"What are you doing here servants?! You're suppose to be aiding Carlos, me and Oceanus. Wasn't there another one of you?" she asked.
I blinked, she sounded kind of dumb yelling because of her accent. I resisted the urge to laugh and pretended to wipe my face. Thankfully, Carla had spoken up.
"Sorry, we were on our way to Oceanus. You wouldn't want to get scolded by him by making us go slower, would you?" She said sweetly.
I tried not to smirk as Juliet looked at Carla angrily. Juliet looked at me and glared. She stalked off into a room with a plain door. It took me a while to notice she was limping. What happened to her?
Carla grinned. "That was fun." she simply said.
I smiled and rolled my eyes. "Let's just find Adara" I said.
I ignored the door to Oceanus' "Lair" and continued down the hallway.
There wasn't many rooms or people. It was very empty. Then, I heard low shouting coming from a large door. Curiously, I edged toward it and opened it. I was at a balcony, staring down at a bunch of half bloods and monsters. My stomach tightened when I saw three familiar beings on stage. Carlos, Oceanus, and Adara.
Adara's hands were tied behind her back, her clothes were bloody, her face was tear streaked, her eyes looked dull and scared, and she still tried looking strong. Seeing my friend like this brought tears to my eyes. I shook Carla and motioned her to where Adara was, her eyes widened.
"That's Adara?! She looks so..." she didn't even finish her sentence because I knew it would end badly.
A few moments later Juliet appeared on the stage. So, she mastered transporting and I didn't. I am not jealous, at least not right now. Oceanus picked up Adara by the neck and shook her. I put my hand over my mouth to keep from screaming.
"Tell us where it is!" Oceanus yelled. Where what is?
"Never! Only Zeus and I know and you'll never get the information from me!" She shouted.
Everyone booed and, frustrated, Oceanus though her against the wall. I stayed put, knowing that I'll burst in and save the day or something. Juliet went over to her and put her dagger to Adara's throat.
"Speak, or I'll cut your tongue out" she said.
Adara smirked. "Then I wouldn't be able to talk and I'll be no use. Matter of fact, please cut out my tongue!" She pleaded.
Juliet's eyes flared and she hit Adara across the face. "Tell us where the key is!" Juliet yelled. What key?
"Why don't you check on Terra or something?! I heard she's dead!" Adara yelled.
Juliet looked taken back. Carlos stepped in and stood in front of Adara. Lightning danced on his finger tips. I suddenly remembered that I have Zeus's power in me, too. Maybe my magic is done, but not my awesome lightning powers.
I tried making lightning appear at my hands, seeing that I've never done this before. I smiled when the hair on my arms stood up because of the lightning. I bent down under the top of the railing and commanded the lightning to hit Oceanus. Oceanus jumped back and blinked, then glared at Carlos who looked dumbfounded.
"How dare you!" Oceanus shouted. Carlos stepped back. "To your quarters!" he added.
I smiled, it sounded like Oceanus was ground him. He stiffly walked out the large room and Oceanus cleared his throat.
"Forget the girl for now, we have preparations to be made!" He said and exited with a big blast of water.
"Show off" Muttered Carla.
Juliet took Adara up by the arm and dragged her out of the room. Carla pulled me back out the balcony.
"What were they talking about? What key?" Carla demanded.
"I don't know, I'm just as confused as you!" I replied.
We thought for a while and stood up straight when we heard someone coming. A girl with bright red hair came walking to us. I noticed she had pink eyes, she looked familiar. I also noticed she was smirking.
"Long time no see, Terra. How long has it been? A year? Gods, never thought I would see you again." she said.
I blinked and stared at her, Carla's mouth was agape. How did she know I was Terra? My own sister didn't even recognize me.
"Who are you?" I snapped.
She smiled widely. "Carina. Don't you remember? School? Quiet one?" She said and grinned.
I blinked and scanned my memory for a girl with red hair and pink eyes. I gasped when I noticed who she was. She was from my school, before I knew I was a half-blood!
"Carina! Oh, my gods! You're a half-blood?" I whispered.
She nodded. "I found out a couple weeks ago. When they kidnapped me. I didn't get it at first, it took a while, but the got it through me" she said and pointed at the scar running from the ear to her chin.
How didn't I notice that before? "Wait- you were kidnapped? Who's you're parent?" I asked.
She frowned. "I-I don't know. I've experienced weird things but..." Her voice trailed off.
"A nice, walk down memory lane, but, uh, someone's coming!" Carla said and pushed us back into the balcony and closed the door.
Instead of stopping, the dumbest thing happened. We all stumbled and fell back, off the balcony. With my last ounce of magic, I slowed our fall so we fell lightly on our back. I sat up and glared at Carla.
She shrugged, "Hey, I thought fast." She said and stood up.
Carina and I got up after her. We slowly made our way to the doors, but it opened before we got there. Juliet was standing there, glaring at us.
"Carina? There you are, you suppose to be in training. Servants-whatever you names are-" She was interrupted by Carla.
"She's Robyn, I'm Arlene." She said.
Juliet took a deep breath. "Robyn and Arlene, report to Oceanus. Now" She said and left.
"Help me get out of here and I won't tell anyone you're here" She said, pleaded kind of and left.
Carla and made our way to where Oceanus is suppose to be. I raised an eyebrow at Carla. "Robyn? Arlene?" I said.
She just shrugged and kept walking. We opened the door to the room and stepped in. I sucked in a breath when I saw the two girls that was suppose to be us. Their hands were tied behind their backs and they looked scared. Juliet was there, too, not looking at them.
"We'll leave you to it then" Juliet said to Oceanus and left with Carlos.
The two girls who were suppose to be me and Carla looked at us.
"They claim they don't know anything." Someone from my left informed me.
"Stop lying or you'll be starved for a week!" Someone cried desperately to them.
"We don't know anything!" The girl who was suppose to be me said.
"You can quit the act! Either you cooperate, or you die!" The person said again.
Without a word, I ran out the room and out into the hallway. I paced in the hallway to think a little. I hadn't even thought about what might happen to them. Oceanus might kill them or torture them...my thought were interrupted by a weird noise. I walked to my left where the noises were coming from. I looked into an open room and blinked.
I saw Carlos lean in and kiss Juliet! Ew!
I started in horror and disgust at what I saw. Not only was he kissing her, Juliet was kissing him back! I jumped as a booming voice from behind the large door yelled something at a servant. I should have never agreed to this. Damn Carla and her unbelievable mind.
"Robyn!" The voice yelled.
I sighed and opened the door, leaving my real self behind and letting the new me sink in.
Carla was on the ground wiping something. I looked away when I realized it was blood. Then, I saw a big man with two people over his soldiers walking away. The two girls that were suppose to be me and Carla. They were dead. My eyes blurred, I let them die for my own purposes.
Carla's eyes widened when she saw me. Your eyes and hair! She mouthed. I stepped back. My hair was turning to it's natural color. And so was my eyes! I had to get out of here! I turned to run out again, but stopped when I saw Juliet standing at the door like nothing happened. Like she wasn't just kissing Carlos a few minutes ago.
She blinked and narrowed her eyes. "Terra?!" She screamed.
"What?!" I heard Oceanus yell.
"Terra, watch out!" Carla cried.
I didn't have time to think as I was grabbed and pushed roughly to the side and banged against the door. I didn't even have time to breath out when I saw a sword fly through the air where I was just standing because I was busy looking at the person on top of me.
He was looking straight into my eyes. His dark, long hair falling onto my face. His purple eyes looking at me with fear and determination.
"Irial?" I whispered.
Then all of Hades broke loose.
