"Let go of me!" Liv screamed at Connor and Travis.
"We didn't want to do this," said Connor.
The Stoll brothers were usually very funny and playful but now that they were locking Liv up in a dungeon, they were dead serious.
The brothers dragged Liv into the Big House. Chiron removed a small carpet which revealed a trapdoor.
"Your taking me in there?" Liv asked trying to get the twins off of her. "I didn't do anything wrong!"
"I'm sorry, child. But we can't trust you just yet," said Chiron.
Connor and Travis were just about to drag Liv into the trapdoor when someone barged into the room. Not just one person.
Liv was looking at Rachel, Jenny and Nico, they all looked like they ran for miles.
"Liv," said Nico, out of breath.
"They're not gonna let me go," said Liv straight up.
"Well we're not gonna let you go to the dungeon!" Said Jenny.
"Chiron, its not her fault! She can't control who claims her!" Nico exclaimed.
"That is true but she is dangerous, we don't want her hurting anymore people. Until all of this is cleared up, we cannot let her out. I am sorry children, but I have to," said Chiron calmly.
Nico and Jenny both burst into tears.
"Can we at least have one last moment with her?" Rachel asked desperately.
"Alright but we must hear your conversation," said Chiron.
"Deal," Said Rachel.
"Olivia," said Jenny. "I'm sorry for being afraid of you, I wasn't being a very good friend and I feel very horrible about it. And I'm really going to miss you but don't worry because we'll get you out of there,"
"Oh Jenny, I hope I get out here too so we can be best friends," said Liv.
"You already have been my best friend," said Jenny giving Liv a hug.
"I got claimed yesterday," said Jenny once their hug was done. "I'm the daughter of Iris,"
"I knew you were the daughter of an amazing god," said Liv. "I'm sorry I missed your claiming,"
"Oh it wasn't your fault. These two were dragging you while you screamed and kicked," said Jenny gesturing to Connor and Travis.
Liv gave them a dirty glare.
"Goodbye Olivia," said Jenny giving Liv another hug.
"Jenny," said Liv with a serious expression. "Don't. Call. Me. Olivia."
"Alright, Olivia," Jenny teased.
"Miss White, you are dismissed," said Chiron.
Jenny walked away, looking back many times.
"Olivia," said Rachel once Jenny was out of sight.
"Yes," said Liv.
"Before you got claimed, I was taking a nap," said Rachel.
"Um, ok," said Liv awkwardly.
"I had dream. It was more of a message though. I was talking to Apollo and he said he figured something out about you" Rachel explained.
"Now he figured it out?" Liv asked.
"Actually, Aphrodite told him," said Rachel.
"Aphr-" Liv stopped when she realized that Aphrodite was the first to claim her. "Aphrodite is my real mom,"
Rachel nodded.
"Does this mean Liv doesn't have to go to the camp dungeon?" Nico asked Chiron.
"Unfortunately we still have to," said Chiron.
"So what did you find out?" Liv asked turning away from Chiron.
"Your birthday and your age," said Rachel. "Your 13,"
"Explains why I'm so much shorter than everyone," said Liv.
"Height doesn't matter," said Rachel. "Anyways, your birthday is on November 10 and it's the 27th of October today so if I'm right, your birthday is in 14 days,"
"Well, I guess it's good to know that I'll be locked in a cell on my 14th birthday," said Liv shooting Chiron a dirty glare.
"Olivia I know I barely know you but I know you've been a great friend, I know your not evil and I'm going to miss you," said Rachel giving Liv a hug.
"Bye Olivia,"
"Bye Rachel,"
After that, Rachel walked away without turning back.
"Liv," said Nico. "I'm not going to let you rot in this place. I'm gonna get you out if there if it's the last thing I do and I-"
"Nico, don't make a promise you can't keep," said Liv.
"Liv do you know why I trust you so much?" Nico asked.
Liv shook her head.
"Because, you remind me of Bianca except this time your my little sister. I'm going to get you out of there Liv, you just watch me," Nico looked so determined Liv couldn't help but admire him.
"Just promise me one thing," said Liv.
"Name it,"
"Stay at Camp Half Blood and make some friends,"
"Okay," Nico whispered.
"Bye-" Liv started.
"-don't say it. This is not goodbye, it's more of a 'see you later' " said Nico.
"I'll see you later, Nico," said Liv.
"See you," Nico gave Liv a hug then left the room.
A single tear went down Liv's face as Connor and Travis took her into the dungeon. The place looked horrible, like a place for criminals. The twins threw Liv into a cell and locked her up.
"Please don't do this," Liv pleaded.
"You know that fight you had with Sendon?" Connor asked.
"Yeah," Liv replied.
"We could've told Chiron, but we decided not to cause we thought you were a good kid," said Travis.
"And now I'm behind bars," said Liv with a long sigh.
"Come on. Let's go Connor," said Travis.
The Stoll twins left the dungeon leaving Liv all alone. Liv hugged her knees and starting rocking back and forth. She let her tears run down her face which made her eyes red and puffy. Liv stopped sniffing when she heard a voice from upstairs. She knew that voice, it was Percy Jackson.
"I don't believe it," said Chiron. "How could it be?"
"I don't know," said Percy. "Where's Liv?" He asked.
"She has been locked up in the dungeon,"
"The dungeon? I never knew Camp Half Blood had a dungeon,"
"Unfortunately we need one,"
There was a long moment of silence.
"Maybe she should talk to Liv," Percy suggested.
"Why? What good would that do?" Chiron asked.
"Maybe she'll remember something about Liv,"
"I guess that could happen, could you let her know?" Chiron asked.
"Me? Shouldn't it be someone else?" Percy asked.
"Things have changed since Liv got here, Percy, and right now I think it's best if go see her,"
"Okay," said Percy before leaving the room.
Percy walked towards the cabins and spotted the one painted all black. He gently knocked on the door and heard no response. He slowing opened the door and gasped.
"Hello Percy,"
"Bianca,"
Liv cried herself to sleep that night. When she woke up she heard a sound coming from the cell beside her. She saw a shadow. "Hello," said Liv.
"Hi," a male voice replied.
He came out of the shadows to face Liv. The man had sandy blonde hair and a scar across his face. His eyes were blue as the sky.
"Who are you?" Liv asked.
"My name is Luke Castellan," said Luke.
Luke spoke very miserably. He looked like he used to be happy and something turned him dull.
"I'm Liv,"
"How'd you get in here? You look like your 13," said Luke.
"It's a long story," said Liv.
"Well, I don't think neither one of us has anywhere to go so..." Luke sat down on the dusty floor. "Tell me everything,"
Luke made a fair point. Liv was probably going to stay in her cell for a long time so she may as well make a friend.
"Well I came to Camp Half Blood with amnesia and apparently my hand was clutched to some dead girl named Bianca," Liv explained.
"Oh yes, I know Bianca, just not that well," said Luke.
"Well as far as I know, she's still dead," said Liv.
"So then why are you here?" Luke asked.
"I've been claimed by four gods and I can do 'extraordinary powers' that hurt a lot of people," Liv explained.
"Let me guess, they think your dangerous and your going to harm everyone," said Luke bitterly.
"Yup," said Liv with a long sigh. "So how did you get here?" She asked.
"It's an even longer story," said Luke.
"Do I look like I'm in a rush?" Liv asked raising her eyebrows.
Luke explained to Liv all about his horrible past.
"You were a Titan? That's crazy," said Liv.
"Crazy, but possible," said Luke. "Anyways, after the battle, I died-"
"-I don't mean to be rude or anything but, if you died how are you here right now?" Liv asked.
"Let me finish. After I died and the battle was over, I felt myself waking up. I thought it was impossible but it wasn't. Then I realized I didn't die, the Kronos part of me died. Once I stood up straight I was a man wearing a janitors outfit. I realized that the janitor was an adult demigod and he took me back to Chiron. And that's when Chiron locked me up," Luke explained. "No one knows I'm alive except Billy the janitor, Chiron and you, everyone else thinks I'm dead,"
"B-but you innocent!" Liv exclaimed. "They can't lock you up if your not a bad person anymore!"
"I guess they can," said Luke with a sad look.
There was a long moment of silence. Liv thought about how much she could relate to Luke. The way no one would ever trust her again, the way he was an innocent in a cell.
"Nice shoes," said Luke trying to break the silence.
Liv glanced at her teal blue heels. She didn't realize she was still wearing the fancy clothes Aphrodite gave her. Liv didn't want to wear fancy clothes right now. She wanted to go back to wearing her orange shirt and skinny jeans. She missed her long black boots she wore on her first day at camp. She remembered the small heel that made her look a bit taller. The happy memory faded way when she realized she might never get any of her old stuff back.
"Thanks," said Liv.
"I'm guessing your a child of Aphrodite,"
"How'd you know?"
"When a child of Aphrodite gets claimed, there's something called Aphrodite's gift. That's when the child has one week to look very beautiful. As in they won't have messy hair or dirty clothes,"
Liv looked down at her dress and saw that it wasn't dirty at all. Not like Luke's rusty clothes.
"I'm also a child of Athena, Poseidon and Hephaestus," said Liv.
"Strange," said Luke.
"Who are you the child of?" Liv asked.
"Hermes," said Luke bitterly.
"What's so bad about Hermes?" Liv asked.
"You should get some rest," said Luke going back into the shadows.
