After a minute they left me, "Finally..." I said and laid down, I should be okay. I'm in the camp after all.
I fell asleep and fell into a deep slumber. The dream that followed will haunt me forever, "Wyatt...You're such a selfish person, all they wanted to do was make sure you're okay, at least ask Annabeth to stay, or one person, you didn't have to send them all away." Kronos said and then from out of nowhere I was in that cave again.
But this time it was brighter, I could see this beast a lot more clearly than last time, it was horrible, and frightening. I think this thing could make the gods look like play things...I have to fight this? The things eye opened and I woke with a start, "No...I'm not ready...It can't be awake..." I whispered, I steadied my breathing.
"Just take deep breathes, you're okay…It was just a dream. Nothing can hurt you..." I told myself.
"No, only you can hurt yourself." Someone said to my right, I got up, but I instantly felt light headed, "Bad idea..." I murmured. "I suggest you stay down, I'm not here to hurt you, but to thank you. You helped them like I asked, I am in your debt." He said.
I looked over to see who it was, it was Poseidon, "I'll remember you for a long time. Well until it's your turn to reach Valhalla, I mean." Poseidon said and smiled kindly at me.
I chuckled nervously, "It was nothing. Just doing what you asked."
Poseidon sighed, "Killing a beast like Polyphemus is no easy task, it would take a normal hero at least ten minutes to kill him, but you? You had ten seconds and he was gone, the things you do are a lot more impressive then you think."
Getting praised from one of the big three is kind of an awesome feeling. But all I did was make this quest easy for those guys, they need a challenge, not a walk in the park...Although it was pretty hard for me.
I had a heart attack...Collapsed and coughed out blood for the first time since I took a dip in the river Styx, and then I collapsed again for shadow traveling too much, well it was bound to happen, I mean damn, there were four people, five including me.
But I'm glad it's over now.
My legs didn't feel as numb as before, I got up, "If you want me to do anything for you, lord Poseidon, just ask...My mouth is sealed, no other god will know about this." I said and winked at him, he smiled, "A kind nephew, thank you. And if I ever need you to do something, I'll give you a heads up." He told and turned his back on me. "Until next, Wyatt Knight."
I turned around and headed to the campfire. I had some s'mores and listened in on a story the Stoll brothers were telling, basically it was a ghost story about an evil king who was eaten alive by demonic breakfast pastries. Those two are quite strange when it comes to telling stories.
Anyway the rest of the night was quite fun, after the story was done, we all did a sing-a-long, and then something else, and then we all went to bed. Once and a while, it's nice to have fun like this.
I was kind of scared to fall asleep, I really don't want to find out what happens next with that thing in my last dream.
One more chapter to go, I am going to be continuing to 'The titans curse' Because that is my favorite book in the Percy Jackson series, and also because I've thought a lot about what's going to happen to Wyatt.
Anyway Thanks for reading! And I hope you all have an awesome day!
