(the lion, the witch, and the audacity of this B)

Lucatiel and I had some awkward moments after... that night, but that didn't change much of our dynamic.

Sif meanwhile was exploring Aldia's keep, and let out a loud howl that would have us running toward her.

She was right outside the entrance and was growling and pawing at the floor. The room was empty, but that didn't mean it was clear.

"Invader or enemy girl?" I asked with my hand gripping my pen.

One tap from Sif. so that means invader, but the way she smelt the air before whining made me uncomfortable.

Sif went and nudged Lucatiel before whining once more.

"What's the matter sif," Lucatiel asked as she bent down and petted sif.

I put my finger on my chin before I started thinking.

"...Lucatiel.. you mentioned you had a brother didn't you," I asked before gulping.

"I do but what does-," her eyes widened as she realized what I meant.

"...that would explain sifs ... howls and why she didn't proceed forward," I said.

I watched Lucatiel's hand falter on her sword, and it was shaking. She let a deep breath out before her nerves calmed down.

"It's okay," I said gently putting my hand on her shoulder.

I began theorizing if we managed to restrain him, and then I could study his invasion body, I could theoretically make magic to counteract his hallowing.

"sif we are going to pin him once more. We will do an Artorias okay girl?" I said putting my blade away and going in with my bare fist.

I had to say, his blade work was quick and would be deadly. but the faster I moved the more he tried to counter my attack.

And just the perfect moment sif jumped and restrained him. keeping him pinned long enough for me to tie him up and keep him still.

"Thank you," Lucatiel's voice said as she held onto my shoulder and looked at her hallowed brother.

I put on imaginary gloves and began my work.

said work isn't easy, and I'm not exactly a genius in this type of field, but I can get the job done.

[cursed undead]

{Facing a challenging foe that already lost his sanity, a brave undead named Percy was able to create this spell to completely undo the effect of hallowing.}

"...I may not be able to continue on your Journey...," Lucatiel said sadly as she watched her brother.

"Because you'll have to take your brother home huh?" I said sadly as I sat next to her.

"...I enjoyed the time we spent together Percy... I really do," she said as she sighed.

I smiled sadly and glanced at the stars. I was definitely sad, but I knew the day would have come anyway.

"You know, there IS a bed over yonder if your up for it. Make our last night a memorial one," she said smirking.

"Lead the way," I said as I held her hand and she dragged me.

.....

Sally had fallen into a depression, but what kept her hope alive was the fact that Percy was alive.

Earlier in the year he was out on emergency medical equipment because he couldn't breathe manually, but now he could breathe manually without any machines.

Sally was moderating every movement that Percy made, and signs of life.

Luckily Percy was still alive.. he showed signs, and they were definitely not just instinctive reactions.

Percy continues to lay unconscious, his body twitching and sometimes making weird motions.

While Sally sat next to Percy gently rubbing his hands a woman opened the door and came in.

She stood tall, and mortals couldn't see her, but Sally wasn't a normal mortal though.

"Athena," Sally said in an almost cold tone.

Athena came and stood near Percy's body. observing him... calculating his odds of survival.

"he could very well be the destruction of Olympus," Athena said, she was thinking about slicing me down at my lowest, but logically it would be unwise to anger Poseidon.

"he's just a kid... my baby boy," Sally whispered as she held Percy's hand.

Athena narrowed her eyes and she looked at Sally but made no movements.

"It would be wise to let your son go. I'm thinking of striking him down regardless of the consequences of such actions. At least then the prophecy will be avoided," Athena said.

Sally got out of her chair and looked at Athena, before raising her hand and bitch slapping her.

"You would-" Athena began

*slap*

"That is my son. You will have to go over my dead body*" There was no fear in Sally's eyes as she stared straight into the goddess of wisdom's eye.

As soon as Athena's killing intent came out, Percy's eyes woke up. His body moved faster and picked Athena up by the neck and slammed her into a wall.

What Athena saw as she looked into Percy's eyes wasn't a demigod who woke up out of a coma. No, what she saw was a hunter... and she was the prey.
