Heroes of Chaos 2: Restarting the Story

Peter 12

This chapter is dedicated to they_call_me_ozzy

I listened as Annabeth told the others of Mount St. Helen.

It was one of my favorite stories, but it was cool to hear it from someone else's point of view.

Percy had told us of the power he felt coursing threw him and of the explosion. But Annabeth hadn't felt any of that, she was the witness not the executor, it was cool the way she told the story.

I didn't know what to do.

I wanted to help Percy but none of us knew what Void had done to him.

Chaos had another mission set up but we couldn't move Percy right now, and I would die before I left him in this state.

Chaos knew that, and I knew the others felt the same.

Luke had told Parker about the mission and he had flat out refused to even leave this room.

Luke had tried to point out that this was an order from Chaos but Parker didn't care.

I saw that not obeying would get us in trouble but Percy was in trouble right now.

Luke had finally left saying he would brief us on the teams decision.

That was the thing.

Without Percy everything had to be put to a vote, and we all had to follow that vote.
Chaos would also have to comply to the vote, but we had never been in this situation.

Finally I couldn't pretend any more. I sat up and looked at my brother.

"Peter!"

"You know which one he is?"

"Parker told me."

I didn't really care what they were saying.

The one voice I wanted to hear was my brothers.

There was a knock on the door.

We all looked up.

Luke walked in.

"You're awake."

I nodded.

"The team has come to a tie, and we won't budge until we know what the mission is," Luke held up the folder.

I let out a sigh and stood up.

I took the folder and sat at the table next to Percy's bed.

Everyone was silent as I read.

My eyes widened in shock, I quickly looked at Percy.

"Something wrong?" Luke picked up on my body language.

"Voids Sphere," I breathed.

I couldn't believe it.

"I'm sorry Voids what?" Leo asked.

"Void used his dark spheres."

Luke's mouth fell open.

Parker grunted in his sleep.

"Then how in Hades is he even still breathing!" Luke yelled.

Parker yelped and fell out of his chair.

I looked back at the folder.

"He might not be for long."

"What's goin' on?" Parker was still half asleep.

"Chaos sent us information on the spheres as well as a possible cure."

"Cure for what?" Parker fell back asleep.

"Where is it?" Luke asked.

I flipped threw the pages of the folder.

"It's not a physical cure."

"What?"

"Is anyone else completely lost?" Frank whined.

"We have to travel into his subconscious."

"How in the world do we do that?"

"It doesn't say."

"Typical."

"At least it's a lead."

"True."

"There's steps."

"He gave us steps?"

I nodded and flipped threw them.

"The first thing is we have to find-"

I faultered.

"Find what?"

"We have to find our parents."

Luke was silent.

I turned to him.

"Both of them."
