The Darkness Is Coming

Chapter 8

I totally thought Percy was going to collapse. He went so pale I thought I might be able to look through them. Annabeth was blinking hard, then realization crossed over her face. "You mean.."

"That I'm his twin? Yes." I said simply.

"I'm going to sit down now." Percy said. Then he fell down and just stared at me. I looked at Annabeth.

“Hi, Annabeth. Leo.” They stared at me. There grips in their weapons tightening.

“How do you know our names?”She asked.

I looked them in the eyes. This is who I was trained for. I couldn’t see why. They were, what I should have been. No one ever came for me though. All these years. what made them come now? “The same way I know everything about you, Annabeth Chase.” Her eyes narrowed. She drew her dagger out, slowly. I raised my eyebrows and stood up, ignoring the pain and exertion. At that time a girl appeared.

I looked over at her. Honestly, I wasn’t that surprised. That was until I looked at her face. I was at her side in seconds. I know this girl, she was the one from my dreams. Her eyes opened in a flash. “You” she said, not in anger, but rather in surprise. “Katey?”

“Carmela?” We looked at eachother. Both of us bringing up the memories of the dreams that plagued us.

“Ok.”said Percy.”What in Hades is going on hear. First you tell me you’re my twin sister. Who I have no recollection of. THen this girl shows up, and you both know each other.”

I blinked “You don’t know me.”

“No.” I stared at him. He doesn't know me. That means he didn't abandon me. I sat back down. Wait if he doesn't know me, that means....Oh my Gods. This is worse than before. My family doesn't know me.

“We have to leave.” I said my voice almost cracking in the ends. I was close to tears, but I didn’t creak. I have been trapped in this room for years. No one knowing about me. Training and barely staying alive. I was going to get out of hear. I felt something change. I knew that feeling all too well. It meant Nyx coming back. I held out my hand to Carmela. She took it. I went towards the entrance. I was going to leave for good. “Well, are you coming?” Without waiting for a reply I left.
