Thanks sorry it's a super short chap. But I thought it had detail...
Chapter two
Luke
I was still on the table. I assume you've read the chapter before this. (If not, go back and read that one, dummy!)
"Right. Cuz knowing your name is gonna help me a whole lot."
He smiled cruelly. "She's got sass."
Someone next to me said, "do we tell her?"
Luke turned to me. "Yes. You see, Leah..."
He gave my name extra force. "Gods are real."
Wow. Way to ease someone into something, idiot.
"Sure. And I'm the president's daughter."
"No. They are real. And you are one of their daughters."
Hey, I feel like I'm in a book. "Sure I am. Who's your Olympian parent, then?"
"Hermes."
I felt like blowing up. "No. No, No, NO! The gods are not real. You are crazy. You're kidnapping me and feeding me some crazy story, actually thinking I would believe it!? I mean, come on! If you're a son of Hermes, show me your powers. What do you do? What can you do? Nothing! All you can do is tell stories about things. Well, maybe this is how things are in your world, but in mine, I'm just an orphan!"
He looked at me, amused. "Finished?" And gave me a cut on the shoulder with the sword.
"Ow!" I screeched.
"That was some rant."
"Argh! You don't get it! I'm just an orphan who happens to be able to-"
I fell silent. I figured it would not be good to tell him.
But he had heard me. "Who happens to be able to do what?"
I kept silent. Blood started to drip down my arm.
He slapped me. I felt stunned. But I kept silent.
"You will regret this!" He raised his sword, and I thought he was going to kill me.
But he slammed the hilt of his sword into my face.
I instantly felt blood drip down from my nose. I think I had broken it. My cheek was already starting to swell.
"That was just the beginning. Tell me what it is or else-"
"No!"
There was a long silence. Finally Luke stood up. He turned off the lights and left the room. His voice echoed from the hallway.
"That was just the beginning Leah. Don't worry. There's more coming!"
I couldn't wait.
Sorry this was a short chapter, I'll add more detail and the next one will be longer- I swear on the sea that runs through my blood! (If you don't get it, check out my home page for my parent...)
