Reyna

I started walking around the white room and asked, "When will do I star-WHOA!" The next step I was about to do, would've lead me off the edge of a cliff. I look around and I noticed that I was now on the edge of the cliff. I backed away with a scared expression.

"Right now." Bellona said.

I glared at her sly grin. "Will I die?" I ask.

Bellona thought for a bit and shook her head. I raise an eyebrow at her feeling that she is uncertain. "Are you sure?"

This time, Bellona nodded. Reluctantly, I inched closer to the edge, to scared to look down. This is just a test. It's only in your dreams Reyna. If it means waking up from this coma, I shall jump. When I was only a centimeter away from the tip of the cliff, I closed my eyes, reached my arms out, jumped down. I felt the wind colliding with my face so much that I partially felt my skin flapping everywhere.

Just as I am a foot away from hitting the ground, I was floating in mid-air, until 1 minute passed and I hit the ground. Luckily, I didn't take all the force from the cliff, when I hit the ground.

I stood up, and brushed all the dirt from my toga. As soon as I lift my head up...BAM! My claustrophobic fear comes up. I was on a 1-foot tile square, while everything around me were glass walls. I started sweating, and my breaths became shorter. My hands were banging on the glass, walls, while I was yelling "Mother! Where are you! Get me out of here!"

The next thing I know, Bellona was standing in the other side of the glass. "Keep calm, and try to find a way out."

Jason

"What are you doing here Drew?" Gwen asked bluntly. Drew didn't answer, she was only looking down and stuttering.

"Well?! Cat got your tongue or what?" I say this time. Drew finally sighed, and was able to speak clearly. "Look, this isn't what it looks like."

I scoffed. "Pillow, you, Reyna? From what it looks like you were suffocating Reyna!"

Drew stood up, and looked angry now. "This wasn't my choice of action! Before this, I spoke with Piper. I wanted to charmspeak her into doing my chores, but instead she charmspeaked me. Once given an order from a charmspeaker, there's no going back until the person tells you to stop. Only way to resist is if you have a stronger power against it. Now in my case, I don't."

I thought for a moment trying to see if all she was saying were true. Oh if only Aurum and Argentum were here. Piper charmspeaking is no surprise. Probably sent Drew instead suffocating Reyna herself so that I wouldn't be mad at her more. And, a stronger power against it...Reyna is tough cookie so she can resist, I can resist because Reyna has taught me what was right and how to lock the power from the words away from your mind. Seems to me what Drew is saying, is true.

"She's telling the truth." I tell Bobby, Dakota and Gwen. They nodded, but Gwen still looked disgusted.

"Get out of here before I duel you again. And this time, I won't go easy on you." Gwen hissed. Drew immediately ran away from the infirmary leaving the 3...well 4 of us Romans.

I glanced at Reyna, and noticed she was sweating and her breaths became short. "What's happening to Reyna?!" I ask worriedly.

"I'll go get Chiron." Dakota said. Gwen came near to Reyna, and she heard her heart beat beating like the speed of light.

Chiron came in the room asking, "What? What has happened?"

"Reyna, her breaths became shorter, her heart is beating really fast, and she sweating like crazy."

Chiron came closer. "I never thought this would happen again."

"Why? What is happening?" I ask even more worried.

"She's going through her worst and biggest fears."

Reyna

"A way out? How am I supposed to get out of here?! I can only escape from the top which if you haven't noticed is at least 20 feet up!" I started banging on the glass even more.

Bellona raised an eyebrow. "Is it the only way out?" At first I was confused, but when one bang of my fists made a crack, I finally understood another way out. Once, again, I calmed myself. I tried my best to breathe normally, and then with all my force, I punch the crack in the glass followed by more cracks, and then soon led to the whole wall breaking. I bring my arms above my head to block the shattering glass from my skin.

When all the glass fell down, I put down my arms to see a clapping Bellona. "Well, aren't you a smart girl. Next fear!"

I sigh, and try to rub my sweat form my forehead, until I got hot extremely fast. I looked down only to see that I'm being burned on a stake! "Are you kidding!?" I scream out. My body starts wiggling every where trying to break free from the rope.

My feet was already hurting from singes. "Bellona!?" I yell. What you're doing now can help you. you just have to find out how to be more like, a stick. a voice said. That must be her.

What I'm doing now is trying to wriggle myself out of this burning stake. I guess I have to keep trying. Now what about the stick? A stick is brown, weak, brittle, and...skinny! I have make myself skinnier, but how? My eyes wander to see if anything else can give me a hint, though when they landed on my stomach inhaling and exhaling. When I inhale, my stomach gets thinner, while exhaling makes it bigger.

I made the rope go down to my stomach, I inhaled, and got out of the rope, but now all I'm holding onto is the top of the stake. With all my strength, I pushed myself up on the top, and balanced myself. I then saw a pool of water, so I jump there, and my feet felt relieved. My eyes close to the relaxation I'm having in the water.

Is this over yet? I thought to myself. Not quite the voice said again.

My eyes fluttered open, and the next thing I know, I'm in a container with the water rising quickly. Oh dear gods...

"Somebody help me!" At the outside of the container was Bellona. She held up a piece of paper that said, "No escaping this fear. You have to face it this time."

The water was already up to my neck. I had no other choice, so I inhaled the last bit of air and went under the water. When I couldn't hold it anymore, so inhaled water this time. My nose and lungs burned. I was screaming in the inside.

This is only a dream, it's not real, I will survive.

I stay there, with burning lungs, and eyes closed, until I felt solid again. I start coughing up water, and when I was done, I laid down on a roof, I think.

As I open my eyelids, a face was in front of me, it was my mother. "Am I done yet?" I ask.

"Not yet. But this is your last fear." Bellona gave me a hand, and I took it. When I stood up, at the opposite side of the roof was...Jason.

"Wh-Wha-What does he have to do with this?" I say worriedly.

Bellona hand me a gun, and I have a feeling of where this is going to end. "You have to shoot him." she says.

With that, I start over-reacting. "What!? No! I won't shoot him! I can't!" My hand brings the gun forward to Bellona, but she just pushed it back to me. "You can, and you will. If you don't do anything you'll be stuck here forever."

She gestured the gun pointing it at Jason, and she put my finger on the trigger. Tears started welling up in my eyes. "I can't shoot him!"

"You can Reyna! All you have to do is pull the trigger!"

My finger pulled it a little bit, but to shoot I had to pull more. I saw the sad look on his face from the far side, and I couldn't bare to pull the trigger any further.

"It has to end this way! If you want your freedom from this coma you must pull the trigger."

"No. It doesn't have to end this way." I point the gun to my own head, and I can hear my mother's gasp.

"Reyna don't!" she was about to take the gun back again, but it was too late. I the gunshot sounded, and I blacked out.

Jason

Gwen, Bobby, Dakota and Me were all sitting in Reyna's infirmary room. I had my head in my hands, until I heard a gasp.

I looked up and saw it was Reyna. The 4 of us ran up to Reyna's body, and Chiron followed. Reyna's eyes fluttered open, and my heart skipped a beat.

"She's awake!" I say.

Reyna changed to a sitting position. Though what she said, shocks me.

"Who are you?"
