Beware, this one is a little darker.

After Castor's death, it was a week until Pollux set foot outside of cabin twelve.

He'd spend days lying in bed, thinking of every possible scenario in which he could've saved his brother. But instead of acting, Pollux had been forced to watch as an enemy demigod, who'd once been their friend, stabbed his brother through the chest.

It was Miranda Gardiner, his long time friend from the Demeter cabin, who was finally able to coax Pollux outside. He passed through every day in a daze after that.


Maybe that's why, when he saw the cyclops coming toward him in the Giant War, he didn't fight back.

AN: Well, that took an unexpected turn. Anyways, review, I'd love to know what you think. I'm open to suggestions for characters and prompts as well.
