75% Percy Jackson and the prophecy of the end / Chapter 29: Snake sister

Capítulo 29: Snake sister

"You? How would you be expected to battle 'he who must not be named' By yourself" A condescending tone evident in Ron's voice, only enraged Percy further who was clenching his fists to try and control the overwhelming need to rip this mans head off.

"Hell, you're one man whom may or may not have magical powers. The only thing you've got going for you, is that you've got muscles and attitude."

"I've been fighting battles since I was twelve, handling myself in battle isn't our main concern. Yes, If Voldermort comes for a fight. I will meet him happily, but when someone isn't "All powerful" like Voldermort he will think of sneaky ways to get the job done. This is why we are having this meeting to think of strategies not to panic."

Ron scoffed but remained silent for the moment.

Ron had already brought up Percy's family, it was a low blow and grated his nerves. Even his mother had tried to keep him quite, but there was no silencing his insults every time Percy added to the conversation. A small dark voice in Percy's head reminded him of an ability he had learned in tartarus, something he never wanted to use again. But if the red head kept talking and no one tried to stop him he'd show him how useless he could be.

"What protection spells work well with surprise attacks?" Percy said ignoring Ron again.

"Face it! you've got no place here in this order, and less at Hermione's side."

"Ron!" Hermione yelled getting to her feet and began to say something else... "I'm not some princess to be protected!" but Percy's patience broke, almost completely out of his control. The feeling as expected was on the edge of his consciousnesses. The familiar tug in his gut. Suddenly Ron gasped for air as he could literally feel the fluids in his body swirling around. Fun fact, the human body is made of 70 percent water. Only 30 percent is calcium and other elements, water is inside every organ, one of the main ingredients in blood and filters through the brain. If Percy wanted to, he could control Ron's body to walk across the room and throw his head into the wall repeatedly. Ron pawed for release from the deadly torture, his face turning read with effort.

It wasn't until he heard Hermione's scream, a scream so familiar and frightening, so much so that it shocked him. His mind wandered to the time in tartarus, Annabeth had screamed very similarly. He could hear her desperately begging him to stop, so he did. He tore his eyes away from Ron who clutched his throat and did a few breathing repetitions to try and get his lungs back to normal. Percy stood up avoiding the horrified glances from the people around him, but most of all avoiding Hermione's gaze, hers most likely being the most hurtful of them all. He walked to the closed dining room door before turning his head ever so slightly.

"Maybe your right, I don't think it will work out. Me being here. I'll continue with my quest to protect Hermione but I don't think anyone is comfortable with me here anymore." Percy knew he messed up he not only lost control he had lost much more than that. How could she trust him now that she seen his darkest side.

Leaving now was the best option, he spun around and walked towards the door again. He realized now, how much he missed his old band of heroes, who'd saved the world with him so many times. The team of demigods in both the battle in Manhattan and the one against Gaea, had their flaws and sometimes didn't get along but always were grateful to see someone trying to help them win the war.

Percy stopped before completely leaving the room. "Here's a tip, if you want to win a war. Don't take your teammates for granted, because in seconds they can be ripped away from you, either by sword, gun, or wand. You are going to need all the help you can get to defeat the 'dark lord' you don't have time or the right to choose who is on your team. Trust me I've been through this before." His voice was filled with regret, and he felt very tired after saying his peace. "Oh and Ron, I promise you. I had mercy on you today. So before you try to convince everyone how bad I am... Remember if I were the Dark Lord I would have done a lot worse"

With that Percy opened the dining room door. Hermione right on his hills she was upset. Just as he reached the door he felt a delicate hand on his shoulders stopping him from moving any further.

"Your leaving?" He sighed, he did not need her to comfort him right now, if anything seeing her eyes might make him lose his resolve.

"So what you're just going to ignore me?!" Hermione's voice was raised not liking the silent treatment. "...I thought you love me." Her voice so low Percy almost didn't catch it, but as soon as he did he froze. Quickly turning around he met her red eyes looking at him with so much hurt in them, any resolve he had originally to put distance between them melted away right then. He grabbed her small trembling form and with as much vigor he could muster kissed her. He couldn't walk away from her she was the only thread that kept him together. After the kiss he put his forhead against hers and whispered. "You still want to be with a monster like me?" Meeting his eyes she was stunned in place and her tears streaked down her face. Shaking her head with passion she meet his down cast eyes. "You. A monster? Never." She kissed him again making the world fade away, and all that was left was just the two of them.

A voice then cut through their passion. I was a frightened sound, it was so out of place they raced to the next room. They saw something that was so far from what they expected it was jarring to say the least.

In the moments they had left the room a woman held Ron in a headlock running her perfectly manicured fingernail down his jaw.

"Hello sweetie! You'll make such a tasty snack"

Everyone stood up wands at the ready, everyone but Percy had taken out a weapon.

"Tsk, tsk If one of you even taps me with your…. "weapons" I'll break his neck before you can say Tartarus…. Oops hon is that a touchy subject for you?" The woman said in Percy direction. She was pretty Percy had to admit, but deadly.

"Who are you…"

I am Lamia. Daughter of Poseidon and Ceto."

"Lama… interesting name" Percy stated simply cocking his head to the side, slowly moving forward so he was standing in front of Lamia. She hissed at him.

"How Dare you! How dare you Its La-Me-A. Say it with me LaMeA."

Getting closer to the monster he could see a set of snakeskin on her forearm and on the side of her waist. Hmm interesting Poseidon, I think not.

"Lamia…. Nah, I like Lama better" She glared at him before taking a nail and scraping a short mark down the side of Ron's cheek. He screamed, it wasn't a deep cut but enough for blood to show.

"Let him go… he's not like us. This is between you and me not him!"

Lamia smiled.

"Oh dear brother, showing your cards a little early don't you think? I don't know… he'd make quite a tasty snack, not as tasty as the one behind you." She said eyeing Annabeth. "But he will do quite nicely"

"Lama, If you wanted to threaten me with anyone... You picked the least likely to get the job done." Percy smirked

"So be it" She opened her mouth and bared the fangs... Well this is a perfect time to call her bluff with no plan, Percy thought. As she creeped closer and closer to Ron's neck she spoke.

"Looks like the famous Perseus Jackson can't do anything to save his friend, I guess this proves it. Myths really are myths. Percy Jackson the one hit wonder… who knew today would be the day history is erased, Instead of Percy Jackson the Hero. Thousands of years from now you'll be called Percy Jackson, a pitiful hero, and an even worse friend"

"First of all… three hit wonder, I think you forgot to add Gaea to the list of psychotropic women I've had to defeat… And while we're on the topic of crazy women that want to kill me, I mean Keli was crazy as a bag of cats, but at least she was hot. You don't even compare to her" She stopped and closed her mouth and looked at Percy with outrage. He had a plan It was a crazy plan, but a plan none the less.

"I remember Keli she was really hot… so was Tammy. Heck blonde hair is super attractive, and Keli was remotely smart too"

"Oh yeah, Keli is really pretty… but you know who is even prettier than Keli?" Hermione said looking excited. Percy realized she must have a plan.

"Who?"

"Hera." Percy gave Hermione a bewildered look, Hera was… just no. In response Hermione gave him a just go with it look.

"Yeah Hera's gorgeous…. love the... peacock thing she's got going on" Hermione almost laughed at my response but caught her self.

Lamia was preoccupied by the sudden turn in conversation but her face turned pale when we continued. Lamia hissed at them. "HOW DARE YOU TALK ABOUT THAT WOMAN IN MY PRESENCE"

Before Lamia could react Percy uncapped riptide and Slashed one quick motion towards her waist, but instead of turning to dust like she should have, riptide barely even scratched her. The snakeskin around her waist acted as an armor.

Lamia let loose of Ron with one movement and pushed him behind her, she stalked right up to him threateningly. Percy then notice a tail coming out of her backside. LAMIA, now he remembered her. Chiron had told him some myth about her. From what he remembered Lamia was a mistress of Zeus, which made her jealous and ended up killing her children except for Syllca. But why was she here, what was so special about Ron? Percy's brain was working in overdrive and now that she didn't have Ron in her arms the other wizards in the room were trying to hit her with spells, but they didn't penetrate her skin. Ms. Weasly! Of course… Since Hera killed Lamia's children… Lamia turned into a monster herself, and would devour children, to make other mothers feel her pain.

"Perseus Jackson, I've long awaited my turn to kill you. Today I finally get my chance, you and your little one." She pointed at Hermione's stomach. "Percy Jackson, today you will feel my pain, today is the day i will get vengeance by killing one of Hera's champion's children." She paused taking a breath. The look on Percy's face seemed to amuse her because she started laughing. What did she mean "Hera's champion's children"?

"Feel the pain I felt Jackson. Every time I try to forget. She reminds me of them, all because of jealousy. You call these gods the rulers of this world, yet they are the same as the humans that roam this earth. The only difference being they are stuck in an endless lifetime, one where nothing changes, the world around them grows, but do they. The gods never change, and they never will, they are still as heartless as they were thousands of years ago and as they will be thousands of years from now. So tell me this Perseus, is it worth it?" She raised her clawed hands and lunged at Hermione's stomach.
