Percy's POV
He tried to hide his surprise but this was too good to be true. There Bianica Di Angelo and Luke Callastian stood, they looked fragile with their pale skin and skinny bodies. Lukes scar was missing making him look...kinder in a way.
"Wow. I have to say I'm impressed" Percy regained his composure and sat up taller.
Void rolled his eyes annoyingly while the wizards glared unimpressed at him. He knew that his mission has gotten ten times harder now. He still didnt know how to telepathically speak, and he's still sure his other three comrades want to blow up this place.
Percy continued to observe them. They had bruises all over them making Percy wince. "How long were they here?" he asked harshly.
Voids smile grew, "We've been planning this war for ten years so they were here for two years."
Percy gripped the table side and stood up suddenly. He clenched his jaw. "I would be watching what your doing if i were you"
Void smiled slightly at his anger making Percy way more furious. "Why?"
Percy tried to think of a reasonable idea. He raked his brain for some kind of reason but ended up with nothing. He sighed defeated "I dont know" He murmured "But you should know that who ever messes my friends messes with me"
Just when he stood up to leave he sent a little prayer to Chaos, Lord Chaos please teleport Luke and Bianca out safely.
Percy doesn't know of Chaos will answer him, in fact he has this feeling in his gut that the exact opposite was going to happen. But didnt lord chaos say that he can resurrect people from the dead? That he could only resurrect people who've been dead for a year.
Luke cranked his head up slightly, when he spotted Percy his eyes widened slightly, Percy sending a small nod towards him walked confidently walked towards the door.
"Oh yeah Percy, make up your mind about joining us" Percy stopped dead in his tracks.
"Never" He said and a little louder he said a few words that made Void frown the first frown Percy ever seen. "I will never join you, even if my life depended on it." With that final note Percy teleported away from the meeting point.
He reappeared in the dungeons. It was dimly lit so it would take a monster to spot him. Moving as swiftly as he can he ran throuh the dungeons looking for the cell in where they're holding the three of them.
He listened closely, where were they? his footsteps could be heard no matter how slowly and quitely he was walking. Were they actually here?
He took a turn left, crying. He walked faster until he stiod in front of a large cell. There five people were sitting, except they were huddled around the smallest body.
He used his water powers to turn the lock into ice then he took out his dagger which was secured in his trench coat. He proceeded to hot the lock until it crumbled on to the floor.
That the attention of the four.
He pushed pass them and checked the small body. There Lily was lying, face pale and lips blue. A sob escaped his lips. Her hazel eyes were now glossy staring at the ceiling.
His cheeks wettened. He lifted Lily up in his arms and stood up. Concentrating all he can he opened up a portal, it was completely black with silver streaks coming in time to time. He doesn't know if this was going to lead him where he wants to go but its better than staying here.
"Come on" he whispered to the other silent cell mates. He stepped through the portal first and one by one, they all followed him. First was a bleary-eyed Ricky, then Hermione who was holding his hand and lastly Luke and Bianca who were staring at the two wizards saddly.
He gently brushed a peice of hair which clung onto Lily's forehead. "Who did this?"
They were completely silent, the only sound heard was Rickys sobbing and Hermione's sniffing. Feeling his anger rise he yelled alot more loudly "Who freaking did this!?"
Luke limped towards Percy, his eyes were uncertain but he framed a look of confidence.
"The faded one did" he said quitely. Percy knew who that was. Void. Names hold power and by calling him by his name, it would give away their location.
"Why?" he asked quitely.
This time Luke didn't answer, Hermione did. Her head was held high, her brown eyes scared but held confidence in them. He knew what he did the day before was uncalled for, Hades he beated him self up for it.
"They said that it was a lesson for messing with them. They said that she wasn't important in their plan" Her voice was steady which surprised Percy, he expected to hear her voice at least crack but seeing her so confident made Percy respect her alot more.
Percy lifted two fingers and closed her eyes. He couldnt bare to see them like that...so lifeless.
Near by shadows gathered up, even his own to a spot near them. Out stepped Leo,Thalia and Nico. Thalia had a scowl on her face,"Why didn't you signal us Percy?" Her eyes then fell onto Lily, her eyes softened and she stood there in complete silence looking at the floor.
Leo was looking at Bianca and Luke in confusion while Nico was completely still.
"Bianca?" That caught Thalia's attention, her head snapped to the direction where the duo was.
Just like Nico, Thalia froze. Leo who still didn't catch what was happening held a look of pure confusion "Um, who are they?"
Percy sent a slight nod toward the duo who nodded woth understanding.
"Im Bianca Di Angelo"
"Im Luke Callastian"
The next thing which happened wouldve been missed if Percy even blinked. Nico flung him self at Bianca his older sister while Thalia slowly approached them.
Percy turned around and prayed to chaos to take Lily. He doesn't want to know what her parents reaction would be, not good.
He felt eyes piercing into him. Ignoring it he opened a portal. "Ricky" his voice was hoarse but still held a smile for the young boy's sake. "This portal will lead you to Hogwarts or home. Where ever you choose."
Ricky sniffed an okay and walked through the portal. He turned to Hermione,he knew it was her staring at him, and was surprised that she didnt turn away after he caught her looking.
"Hermione I-" He stopped mid sentence, it wasnt because he was cut short,it was because he didnt know what to say "I-Im sorry"
She looked at him, she made no movement "You hurt me" she whispered "Mentally and Physically" She tried to hide her wrist but Percy caught them before she could turn.
Ugly bruise marks was circling her small wrist. He rubbed her wrist softly, not caring that she didn't make a sound.
Using the water molecules he controlled the water and formed a band around her wrist, it slowly healed and she looked at him with so much awe. A look in her eyes,a look that can make any guy react. Lust.
Not caring there was an audience Percy leaned in and softly put his lips on hers, the kiss was passionate and full of love but she didnt kiss back, once he pulled away she was crimson red.
"P-Percy i-i" she started but the sound of yelling caught their attention. Thalia was yelling at Luke and he needed to stop them before it went out of hand.
He doesn't know if the kiss meant anything to Hermione but what he does know was that the kiss affected him. It meant so much to Percy. The second girl he'd ever kissed. Rachel and Calypso are not counted as kisses.
He turned around slowly and walked towards the fight.
He needs to clear his mind.
