Percy POV

"You know that you have caught my attention. Right?"

"And that is not suppose to creep me out?" Percy smirked. He was already getting used to the voice speaking in his nightmares or empty dreamscape.

"Oh no. You should be scared." The voice took on an evil tone.

"And why is that?"

"Because I am going to make your life miserable. I am going to make you a mindless puppet." the voice drawls out.

"No thank you, I rather stay the way I am. The idea of having my brain taken out isn't a pretty picture. Plus if you do, can you at least lay off the button eyes?" Percy sneered "It is just weird."

"So you rather stay as a broken and betrayed hero? A toy for the gods."

"Well its better than being in this hellhole and having to deal with you." He huffed.

"I feel so thanked. It was my intention after all."

"What a goal."

"Don't you ever wonder?"

"Wonder what old man?"

"Wonder why you were chosen?"

Percy's muscles tensed. That was the question that always haunted him, but at the same time he didn't want to know. He even asked that question when he first went to Camp Halfblood. Why me..

"No..."

"Oh? And why is that?" he said with mock concern.

"Everything you say is a lie."

"Really? So if I say that you hate this 'hellhole' as you call it, you would say that is a lie?"

"You know what I mean!" Percy growled knowing that it was pointless to punch the air.

"Let me say it anyways. It is because you are too loyal. Too trusting, letting everyone use you. Who knows maybe Lilia, Ally, and Nathal will be on that list."

"It is Lilly, Alex, and Nathan. If you're the the one who put us here, you mind as well know our names."

"You are a puppet, you just don't know it yet." The voice sneered. "And the people you trust are your strings and limbs. All I need to do is…."

"I am not letting you get near them!" Percy snarled.

"..destroy them and put in new ones." the voice finished with a chuckle. "Touch touchy."

"I won't let you near them!"Percy growled.

"Who said that it will be me doing anything?"

With that being said the dreamscape shattered leaving Percy in a panicked state.
