I can't promise a long chapter, but I'm really excited for this one!
Enjoy!
Last Time: Poseidon place the book down and said, "That's the end of the chapter." And handed it to Thalia.
Before she even opened the book, however all the demigods from the future got up and Clarisse pulled Luke away, they all need to talk.
Now:
Once they were away from the group Clarisse dropped Luke and glared with everyone else. "Before you start yelling at me, I want you to know that I haven't done any of those things yet." Luke said immediately defensive. Percy walked over to him, and quietly said, "How much do you know of the future?" It wasn't the words he said that sent a shiver down Luke's spine, it was the tone of voice he used. One that promised no matter what Luke had gone through, Percy had been through ten times worse.
"Destiny showed all of it from the time I stole the lightning bolt to when I died to destroy Kronos. Even though I haven't done these things yet I understand why I did them." Luke really did look truly remorseful as he spoke, and Percy had yet to distrust this Luke. "We all get where the Luke we knew was coming from. We really do and still to this day if anyone asked us we would call you a hero." Annabeth added, and it pained Luke to see the little girl he thought of as a sister have the same haunted look he got when he thought of his mother. 'What could she have possibly gone through to get like this?' Luke wondered, and he had a sinking feeling that at some point he was going to find out.
Everyone from the future was angry at Luke. Not for nearly destroying the gods, but for hurting Annabeth and Percy. "Look, as much as I'm sure he's sorry for what he will do, I still say he deserves a good punch for hurting all the people he did." Clarisse said, pulling her fist back to most likely kill him. "Wait!" A new, younger voice shouted, we turned around and saw Percy standing there, looking like he would get in a fight with all of these older kid, for Luke's sake. It broke his heart to know that he'd hurt him so badly one day. "Your all from the future, so why do you want to hurt him? He's one of the only people at this camp that isn't freaking out about who my dad is!"
Nico looked like he was in pain, but told Percy, "I know it seems weird right now Percy, but in the future, Luke is going to do something. We can't tell what he does but you have to know that we still call him a friend. But you can't tell anyone else about this, so go sit back down. Okay?" Percy nodded and left.
"Does anyone else know about the future?" Jason asked. "Yeah. Hermes does. We learned about it together." Luke replied somewhat distantly. Thalia sighed, "Okay, well we'd better get back out there." Everyone agreed and went back to the main room.
Before anyone could start to read, though, Destiny stood up. "Okay people! I have to leave for a while but you should keep reading. I should be back in a few chapters!" and with that she vanished.
I am so sorry about how long this took! I can't even guarantee a chapter anytime soon. At the moment I'm really only updating when I find time.
Anyway! See ya next time!
