Okay, so I haven't been writing this for a very long time and I'm sorry I have been very busy, and I saw this in my English folder so I had to finish this chapter. So please enjoy this chapter which is in Luna's POV. Please review, no burns but constructive criticism is very much appreciated!
Love bluedivia!
I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians.
This table is freezing; icy cold metal, and the leather straps weren't helping at all. He wants me. Kronos wants me to be his queen, and he wants a demigod body. Not mine for I will be his queen a main ally into getting more monsters especially that Airtimes is my mother the wild will be attracted to me, as well as men.
I keep refusing but still I feel his presence grow stronger within me and I hear his laugh louder every time I struggle. He is going to poison my mind just like Luke's. It has been three days since I was captured. I had a dream last night that the group was heading to Chicago. But I am starting to lose hope. I'm hungry, exhausted, and weaponless. They want me to be their queen but I am still mortal. The door to this room opened and in comes Luke.
"How is my little princess doing?" he asked mockingly.
"You coward let me go and I will show you how I'm doing!" I spat.
"I guess you are still so spirited have you at least thought about my offer?" he asked.
"No, I don't want to eat a golden apple and I don't want to be Kronos's queen!" I screamed and pushed harder against the straps.
"But my dear the golden apple will make you immortal and you could love Kronos's new body and you will be powerful and wonderful. Please don't make me force you." He calmly stated.
"You sick minded fool I love my mother and the gods why would I betray them for Kronos! For you, some male." I hissed.
"It is strange why he wants you to be his queen after all you just found out of being a demigod, and maybe it isn't just your parent being Artemis. But now that I think about it you are spunky and an amazing hunter, you probably have a grudge with your mom because you were starting to like a guy, and let's face it your kind of cute," He said as he stroked my cheek, "I really don't want him to enter your mind and cast a spell on you forcing you into this, I want you to go willing." He said pleadingly like he actually cared about me.
I shouldn't think like that how stupid am I to actually think this monster was kind.
"I think you will just have to by force, because I respect my mom, and I will not betray my friends for you as I said before, I will not go willingly like you!" I struggled with the straps and the one by my left wrist broke off and I punched Luke in the mouth.
I then twisted and untied my other wrist as Luke released his sword, and tried to stab at me but accidentally broke the ones by my legs. I leaped up and kicked his sword hand causing him to drop his double bladed sword, and kicked him in the crotch.
I sprinted to the door and was running to try and find an exit. I found a spiral staircase, and pushed the door at the top of said stairs open, I think it said observatory on but I can't be to sure.
I was wrong, it wasn't the observatory, but the top of the roof. The sides curved downward and towards traffic. There was no way I could escape this. I was trapped.
The door opened and there was Luke standing menacingly with his sword. "Come on my dear, did you really think you could escape us?" he sneered. He stalked forward. And I started to shift back but my foot started to slip, and I felt like I was going to fall, and my guts would be splattered across all of Chicago. Instead Luke grabbed my wrist, and pulled me into his torso. I tried to push myself off but I couldn't, and I knew I was trapped once again.
"So Dianna, this is the first time you've let me hold you peacefully, but we need to get back inside. As much as I love this moment it is time to get ready for bed. Are you ready to return to your room?" he asked.
"Shut-up" I mumbled, being the only response I could think of, as he started to drag me back to my prison.
He pinned my hands behind my back as I was dragged to my chamber, and re-strapped to the table.
"Di, I can call you that right?" he asked I just growled, "Listen Di I mean it, this is your last chance to eat the apple willingly and join us. I don't want to force you into this honestly." He begged again, and got closer to my face. "Kronos means well. He wants to help people like us, people who have been hurt and betrayed by the gods. You saw how many undetermined kids there where in the Hermes cabin, are you telling me that's fair? DI, Dianna please just join us please"
I just spat a wad of saliva in his face. "If you really think I am that stupid Luke you got another thing coming. Luke maybe you haven't realized this yet, but Kronos is using you. Once you usefulness is up then he is going to throw you aside and kill you and everyone you care about." I scolded.
-SMACK-
He had slapped me across my face; I could already feel the red print forming on my left cheek.
"You insolent child. Kronos is the master of all; he cares about those who follow him. I joined him willingly, and now it's your turn to do the same. I see that you won't; you have your mother's strength. The thing is, is this was your last chanceā¦" he turned and started to walk out of the room, when his silhouette was barely visible, he turned to face me, and he grinned, "Until tomorrow my princess." And he walked out of the room.
