Darkness

"I swear I heard something." I hold my breath as two demigod's search around the stables. I knew one as Leo Valdez, but the blonde guy in the purple shirt was unknown to me.

"Give it up Superman! Let's just go back to dinner!" Leo said, smiling. The blonde "superman" nodded, though his eyes searched the room one more time.

Finally, with a grunt of annoyance, Blondie and Leo left. I gasped with air, and emerged from the hay. Seth did too, he had hay sticking out of his hair which made him look silly.

Evan burst out of his stable, scowling. I glared at him, hate filling my eyes,

"You traitor! You joined Erebus!"

"Only because I'm a Child Of Shadows!"

"Would dad want this?"

"Shut the Hades up! Don't EVER mention him!"

"Evan, please, listen to me!"

"No! NO! You-your a liar!"

"Evan..."

My baby brother launched at me, his hands going straight for my neck. I screamed as his hands clamped down on my neck. His eyes were all black.

Seth paled and grabbed onto Evan's shoulders, hauling him off me. I struggled for breathe as Evan tackled Seth, punching and kicking. Shaking, I stood and went to my bag. I pulled out an arrow and went back to the fight.

The arrow was designed to put the victim to sleep. Evan and Seth were in a scuffle, and I had to grab Evan's hair and wretch him away from Seth.

As Evan rose from the floor, I sunk the arrow into his calf, wincing as he cried out and fell to the floor asleep. Seth was panting as he stood, bruises covering him.

"Your brother... is one hell of a fighter." He mumbled, before collapsing. I rolled my eyes and dragged him into a stall, laying him on some hay and shutting the gate door.

Next, I turned to my brother. He lay facefirst on the ground, his tongue sticking out. A puddle of drool soaking his left cheek. He seemed so peaceful now, what's gotten into him?

I manage to tie him up with some spare rope, and stuff a sock in his mouth. Then, I lock him in a stall. I was about to move, when voices from the hall sent me cowering in my stable.
