Percy's Pov

It's been a week since I first arrived in Tartarus. My body was already covered with bruises and cuts, and I am positive I have some broken bones. Guess who did this to me? Well, see, when Athena brought me here she confessed that it was she that killed her own daughter, just so she could put the blame on me. But afterwards she left me here. So since then Kronos and his cronies have been torturing me for fun.

Tartarus isn't a very cheerful place, as I'm sure you can imagine. It was hotter than the fields of punishment and it reeks of monster sweat and spit. For once I wished Aphrodite were her, just so her aroma could replace the stink.

Just then I heard footsteps coming this way and I know what will follow…

-(Time skip- one month)-

Thalia's Pov

I can't believe it has already been a month since Percy was sent to Tartarus. I've been with the hunt and Nico has been in the underworld, both of us avoiding camp because it was filled with traitors, except for a few that also didn't put their hands up that day.
We were camped in a clearing near the border of Canada, when I heard someone calling my name. I looked up from where we were sitting around the fire to see if it was one of the hunters, but no one was paying attention to me, so I was about to go back to eating my marshmallow, when I heard it again coming from the shadows near the edge of camp. I squinted my eyes and saw the son of Hades motioning with his hand for me to follow him into the forest. I got up, excused myself and went around the other way as to not attract suspicion. When I arrived Nico was leaning against the tree.
'Hey Death Breath.'I said
He nodded his head at me.
'Pinecone Face.' Ugh! I hate it when he calls me that, but I guess fair is fair.
'Why are you here? I thought you were under house arrest.'
He snorted.
'I snuck out and besides it's more like palace arrest. Persephone must really hate my guts because I only got palace arrest because I stepped on one of her 'precious' flowers by accident, but she's convinced that I did it on purpose.' he said acidly. 'Anyways I came here because I think we should do something about Percy. We know he's innocent, but Athena has obviously got Zeus convinced that it was Percy that killed her daughter.'
'But how are we going to convince Zeus that Percy's innocent? I don't know if you remember, but we already tried like 3 times and all he did was say that until we got definitive proof that he is innocent, then he won't do anything about it.' I exclaimed
'Exactly. He said we needed proof right? So what if we did have proof?' he asked with a mischievous glint in his eyes
'What are you saying? We don't have any proof...' He was shaking his head and smiling as I said this.
'You might not, but I do. You know Iris right? She is one of the goddesses who actually likes Percy and feels some sympathy towards him when. When she found out he was going to Tartarus, she went there immediately to see if what they said against him was actually true, but when she got there she saw Athena talking to Percy, who btw was tied to a table, and she heard her say that it was her that killed her own daughter just so she could put the blame on Percy. She IM me this information last week and since then I've been trying to sneak out of the underworld without my father or Persephone catching me.' He explained to me. My expression throughout his speech went from surprise to fury to surprise again.

Nico's Pov

Thalia's expression was priceless as I told her what Iris told me.
'So now all we have to do is get Iris to show that conversation on Olympus and hopefully Zeus will listen to reason and let Percy out. Oh and we also need those campers who voted Percy innocent so that hopefully Zeus will see that we have backup.' I concluded my speech.
'Why are you here telling this to me and not asking Iris if she can show that conversation on Olympus?!' she whispered-yelled at me.
'Because I need you to help and get the campers who are still convinced that Percy is innocent.' I said
'Oh... Ok then. I'll get the campers and you convince Iris to help us.' she said, immediately taking control of the mission.
'What about Artemis and the hunters? Will she let you go?' I asked, suddenly aware that I might not have thought this through. She bit her lip.
'Well... maybe if I tell her-' I interrupted her hurriedly.
'You can't tell her or the hunters about this, at least not until I convince Iris. Besides one of them might accidentally let it slip and then Athena might hear about and she'll try to stop us from showing that little conversation she had with Percy on Olympus.'
'Fine, but than what do I tell them? I can't just say: 'Hey girls I'm leaving to go do some errands and I'll probably be back tomorrow so if Artemis asks...well tell her what I told you'.'
'Just tell them you are going on a mission that is very important, but that you won't be able to tell them until it is done.'
'Ok. I'll go tell them that and get my stuff, and I'll meet you here in 10 minutes.'

Percy's Pov

I was in the throne room in Olympus and Zeus was asking the demigods to put their hands up if they believed that I was guilty. Everyone had their hands up, but they didn't matter because I was looking for a specific someone in the crowd and there she was right in the front. I expected to see her hand at her side, but instead her hand was right there in the air just like the rest of them.
'Annabeth! You can't possibly believe what they are saying?'
'I do Percy and I hope you rot in Tartarus.' she said with venom in her voice.
My heart shattered into a million pieces and it would probably never be whole again. Those words were the words I would never forget.
'But...I didn't do it! I'm being framed!" I said exasperated
'You can't lie to me Percy. Just admit that you killed my sister and get it over with, no use lying, you're going to Tartarus anyway.' She said with a sneer.

I woke up with a bang. I looked up to see Kronos.

'So Jackson, had pleasant dreams? I know I did and thanks to you I now live my dreams. Want to take a guess of what I dream about?'
'I don't know maybe rainbows?' curse my ADHD.
Kronos had an enraged expression.
'No and for that you get another round of lashes with the whip today. Well let's see... yesterday it had spikes... so how about a red- hot one today, eh? What do you think? Oh wait! You don't have a choice in the matter.' he sneered.
My back was crisscrossed with the cuts the whip left behind and it was hurting like hell.
'Why can't you just use pillows? That wouldn't hurt so much and it would be just like a sleep over, minus the comfortable bed and the DVDs.'
'What did I say about talking back?' Kronos shouted.
And with that he started with the whipping.

What do you think?
