Of Entities and Essences
Nine/Zoe
You think after living with the Hunters and swearing to maidenhood would break all ties to love right. Well not even that is enough. I finally come to terms with my emotions. The reason why I was broken after Percy was abandoned by camp. The reason why I felt lost when I saw Riptide returned to me. If only I could tell him how I feel. Would he laugh and leave me. Would he be like Hercules. I can only wish.
Life
Haven or Percy, which is which. And who is who. Are they truly separate beings in the same body. Or is it an act. I have to admit that he did look cute when I first met him. But his personality doesn't match his achievements and body. He doesn't brag about defeating many monsters. He doesn't act egotistical as he should. He just seems to perfect. Back when we were on Olympus, the way he looked at that Annabeth girl. I wanted to strike her down. I don't know what this feeling is. I only know happiness and sorrow. Are there other emotions that I don't understand.
My thoughts were interrupted by a loud cough at the door.
"So one is going through their first crush."
Let's say there was a new shade of red from this statement. It was Anarchy.
"What are you talking about"
He shook his head at my statement. I would have looked into his mind to see what he was thinking, but I was blocked by a barrier.
"You have been alive longer than me, yet you don't understand what I am talking about?"
I decided to just nod because I didn't understand what was going on.
"Ask Order's entity, Lust, or that Olympian Aphrodite."
He walked out of the door frame without saying anything more. I need an aspirin.
Haven/Percy
I was testing out my new blade, Wishful, since I wanted to know what natural ability did the name bring upon it. While slicing through some ice dummies. Poseidon flashed in. I acted like I didn't even notice. He was the one who disowned me after all. After slicing through another fifty I sheathed Wishful and started to walk out of the arena. I felt a hand on my shoulder and asked,
"What do you want?"
"I just want to talk."
I decided to give the poor man a chance. And by a chance, I struck him down not caring for his mentality.
"Sure you can talk to the Shell that was Percy. He doesn't exist anymore, so he won't be able to talk back. He would listen to your every order. He wouldn't carry them out though because he has no body. He has no brain. He has no soul. If you wanted to talk to him you should have spoken to him four years ago you insolent bastard."
I walked off not even looking back at the broken face of a god.
RoBel
Ugh, why did my brother have to come back. First my plan works in forcing the camp to abandon him. They worshiped me for the first year. But then everything went back to the way it was. Me alone with no family. Now, how am I going to be the hero of this war. I swung my feet to the side of my bed in deep thought. The campers know I am worthless with a sword. Dad wants his other son back. I need to do the same thing I did to the other campers. I need to frame the Entities burning the camp down.
With a new energy. I walked out to an abandoned bunker in the forest. I grabbed the gas cans and a box of matches and waited until night. Boy, I am gonna be a Hero. I will finally get the attention I deserve. I will be noticed, not to be hidden in the shadows of Percy. I will be free.
Chiron
I wheeled over to the Entity tent and tapped the flap. When it opened, I saw and endless hallway and red haired child standing there.
"Hello child, would you mind telling me which room is Haven's."
I got an unexpected response. She laughed. I was confused. She seemed to have been around nine years old, before I could ask her what was funny, she answered.
"Child, Chiron I believe I am a bit older than you, I am Sloth by the way. Haven is out testing out his new sword. I would be there to give S.K a workout, but I'm a bit too tired."
I just nodded in thanks and changed back to my centaur form. I galloped over to the arena to find Percy walking out. Behind him a saw Poseidon standing there. Looking like his very soul had been shattered. I looked at Percy to see if now was a right time. When he looked at me, he nodded towards the Big House. When I got there, I saw him sitting on the couch, waiting for me to ask away whatever questions I had.
"Well Haven, how many questions may I be able to ask? Excluding this one."
"I'll give you three questions Chiron, only because you were Percy's mentor and I am in horrid mood."
He looked off at the arena after saying those words. I began to wonder, was there really two souls in his body, or was he acting?
"Were you just pretending to have two souls in you?"
He looked relieved at my question. He nodded in response.
"What have you been doing for the last four years?"
"I traveled the country. Helping a demigod get to camp every once in a while. It was after six months of traveling when he disowned me. After that, I was found by the Essences and vowed to become and Entity to get Anarchy out of the Void."
I nodded at his story. It would have sounded far fetched to the new campers who didn't know the sixteen-year old Percy.
"Last question Chiron, use it wisely."
"If, Poseidon disowned you, how do you still have power over water?"
He froze up, opened his mouth to say something, but closed it again. After thinking about his answer he said.
"Ask Annabeth about that one Chiron. After she learned about it, she would probably remember it."
I nodded a thanks and asked him to bring Annabeth to the Big House. He just said sure and walked towards the new Chaos cabin.
Haven/Percy
As I was walking over to the Chaos Cabin, I saw a few campers rushing towards an orange glow. I rushed over and saw what all the panic was about. The camp was burning down.
A/N: Ugh. I feel horrible writing this chapter. But hey, I showed that Life has no clue what love is and Zoe wants to be with him, but is too insecure about it. Anyways expect another chappie tomorrow or Tuesday. Track and homework have been eating away at me recently. Oh yea. And to allen r and other percabeth fans. If you dont like the fact Percy and Annabeth wont be together, then skip over this story and head over to the next. What are there, like 50,000 other stories out there. So all points covered I think.
Till next time
