~CLARISSA'S PERSPECTIVE~
I woke up very briefly and saw a flash of confused looks and then I passed out again. When I re-woke up, I was sitting in someplace warm and comfy. I was being spoon fed something nice and luscious. Nectar. I tasted of my mum's old hot chocolate that she used to make when I was ill or had hurt myself. I opened my eyes and was blinded by a bright light. I squinted and focused. Some brunette person was feeding me. Catherine. Amanda was at my side and Nico was sat in the corner of the room and playing with a figurine. His last present from Bianca. I opened my eyes properly and the light had calmed down. Long story short, I found out about my eyes and what happened and we went on our way. It was my lucky day for a while, then things turned sour. I found an un used voucher on the ground that said 'LUCKY YOU, YOU ARE ENTITLED TO A FREE I-POD, GO TO YOUR NEAREST ELECTRONIC'S STORE TO RECIEVE!' I showed the others and went in to get my free I-pod. I got an I-pod Nano. It was already loaded with songs, such as AM I WRONG by Nico and Vinc and SUPERHEROES by the Script. I love the song am I wrong I listened to it for ages, when things turned bad. For some reason Catherine was agitated. 'What have I done wrong now?' I thought. I went up to her and said "Hey, Cath. Everything ok?" If looks could kill, even my ghost would be dead. I could tell she was using charm speak on the others. "No, Clar, everything is not ok. It is all your fault, your fault about everything! You are a bad, bad girl!" Everyone else turned their back's on me and huffed. Even Nico. My Nico. I sank to the back of the group and listened to my music. Amanda suggested we camp for the night. We went into an old motel, and got 2 rooms. Girls and Boys so nothing happened. I was in a room with Annabeth, Amanda and Catherine. Luckily there were twin beds, Annabeth and Amanda got those. There was also a singular bed that Catherine got and I had to sleep on the sofa. Yay, not.
Don't get me wrong I love being a demigod and all, but I hate! I mean hate, the dreams! Take tonight's for instance.
I'm with my old boyfriend for 5 years. His name is David Jason. He is the cutest boy alive. I loved him to pieces. Until I found out. He said "Come round tonight, parents are out. No earlier than 7. Ok? Love you." I got dressed in my nice outfit that I wore for night in dates. I walked in his bedroom, to find him heavily making out with my friend. My sister no less! She's seen me in a rage before, and she scampered out. But when she left I broke down into tears. David laughed. A cold bitter laugh. I got up and slapped him. "You two timing jerk!" I screamed at him. He threw me and his bed and started to call me names, so bad that if I said such things Zeus himself would blast me to bits, and was abusing me. When he finished, I was a bloody bruised mess and he then started to do something even worse. He sexually abused me. The thought still scared me. I then woke up in a hospital tied to tubes. It was a horrible night. I will never forget. My dream shifted to when my family died. We were in central park, when my sister asked me if I could play hide and seek with her. I agreed. I went to find her and couldn't so I asked my parents. What was left of them. My mum's blooded broken form and my dad nowhere to be seen except his leg in the hellhounds mouth. I went to find Sadie, and I saw her get flattened by a Minotaur. I screamed and the monster's were struck by lightning.
I woke up in a cold sweat, and changed into something more hidden. We soon went on our way. I was doing absolutely nothing wrong except listening to my songs, when I bumped into Catherine who had her fists clenched and was facing me. I looked up and she punched me clean across the face, breaking my nose in the process. I cried out in pain and everyone turned around to face me with an evil glint in their eyes. Then they all started to punch and hit me. Then, their eyes clouded over and they stopped. Nico looked and my broken face and went to touch as he said "What the hades, happened to you?" I slapped his hand away crying and yelled "YOU! YOU ALL DID!" and with that I fell on the floor and let the tears come. Everyone looked shocked at me, when Nico crouched down and whispered "No, we didn't." I chuckled a bitter laugh and grabbed my I-pod and showed them. They all looked so ashamed in themselves. I refused to take any apologies, it reminded me of my night with David too much. I distanced myself from them even though they tried to communicate. It got to the point of me turning anorexic. But no-one noticed my skinny form. Except from when I would get dizzy from the lack of food. I even changed my whole appearance. Now I looked like the ill, mortal, female version of Hades. (outfit, hair) After a week of walking and misery, we finally arrived at the hidden god's village...
