The Redroom Demi-God (on hold)

A Taste Of Hope

"Shit" "What the hell"

[Still dazed he looks up to see Amara standing pointing a gun at him]

James: "ahhh... you wanna talk like grown ups?

Snorts are heard across the room

[Amara scoffs her russian accent is heard thickly compared to James]

Amara: I'm 12

Sadness at the reminder of how young she was.

James: [nodding his head sighing] ahh, right.

[He goes to disarm her as she goes to do the same, he grabs onto her, kicking off the desk trying to get her down]

[Amara twists her body side ways sending him over her shoulder before rolling over him standing up]

[James gets up quickly after they exchange hits but as they are fighting he begins to notice how she's defending her stomach the most, he looks down freezing in realisation, looks up at her]

"Huh?" "Why did you stop"

Wait!

[She doesn't wait and hits him in the temple knocking him out]

James rubs his temple and pouts at Amara
"That's hurt like a bitch"

Amara snorts in reply.

[James wakes up in a daze shaking his head to get rid of it before looking round, he looks at his wrist and notices his handcuffed to a pole with all of this weapons on the desk out of reach]

[He continues looking around and notices Amara going through the draws looking for something]

James: why you doing this kid? You're twelve shouldn't you be at home playing with barbie dolls?

Amara looks at James deadpanned "Barbies really?" Which he just shrugs at.

[We see Amara stop moving and stiffen she doesn't give him a response just looks at him her eyes show a range of emotions before turning back to her task]

In realisation he asks softly "you don't have a choice do you? You could of killed me but you didn't"

Most look at Amara in sadness with how she wasn't given a choice, she doesn't want the looks and moves closer to cuddle apollo who gladly brings her in kissing her head then starts to play with her hair.

[Amara stops moving and stiffens but this time does give him a response, seeing this gives James the answer he needs]

"I can help you, help you get out you don't need to do this kid"

[She finally looks at him and says quietly as if she's afraid to be heard]

Amara: you can't help me

[She shakes her head and turns back to searching]

James: yes I can I work for an good organisation called S.H.E.I.L.D we help people, we can help you if you let us

"Go with him" Percy says to the screen while his sister looks at him in amusement as she is clearly sitting near him so she did go with him.

[She doesn't respond and he Sighs before remembering something]

"If you won't do it for do it for your child"

"Child?" Her dad asks

"Yeah remember the little girl at the start?" Amara reminds him

His face goes to realisation this everything his seen, from the little girl, what his daughter went through, project next generation as they called it happened and she went through it at 12 years old.

[Amara stops moving and whips around to James wide eyes]

Yeah I noticed, you were defending your stomach and it clearly isn't injured your not moving as if you have a injury. So if you won't do it for you do it for your child do you really want them to live the same life as you because they will if you don't come with me.

[Amara just looks at him for a moment, looks around the room as if she's thinking before turning round to James with hopeful eyes, the same hope that hasn't been seen she was a child]

Amara: can you really help me?

James: "yeah, yeah I can

[Amara looks away biting her lip thinking so James carries on]

"Come with me and we can get your revenge we can take down the bastard that's making you do this so they never do it another person again"

"That's should do it kill the bastard" Percy says nodding his head in agreement.

[She looks at him still biting her lip, you can see her eyes are more hopeful]

[James looks in her eyes basically begging her to agree]

"Look the way I see it what else do you have to lose other than that tiny bit of hope inside of you"

Hermes whistles lowly "That's was deep"

[It's quite for a minute, as Amara walks towards the desk grabbing a knife of it holding it in her hand looks towards James]

[He looks at her with sad eyes, before nodding his head at her in understanding thinking she's going to kill him]

[She looks at him for a moment before looking down at the knife in had letting out a deep long breath nodding at her self before bringing the knife down to her thigh cutting it]

Panic fills the room "what are you doing stop that"

"Just watch"

James in panic: what are you doing kid?

[She doesn't respond just keeps cutting deeper, blood dripping down her leg, biting her lip in pain]

A few grimace.

[James looking at her in complete horror at what she is doing]

[She let's out a breathe of pain, dropping the knife on the floor before digging her finger in to incision]

[Still biting her lip letting at grunt of pain every now and again while James is looking at her in complete worry and confusion she makes a noise of a cheer and she brings out a chip out of her leg]

Everyone let's out a breathe of relief seeing the reason why she was cutting her leg.

[Wripping a piece of her leg wrapping it around the wound, looking at the chip between her fingers letting out a breathe chuckle placing it on the desk]

[She turns back around to James with a small smile before throwing him a small key which he catches with his free hand and she starts to walk towards the door]

Amara: Come one then what are you waiting for?

Most laugh at her sassiness

[He tilts his head hitting against the wall as he laughs and starts to uncuff his self]

[The screen goes fades out]

"And that's how we met" Amara says looking at James with a soft smile which he returns.

"Thank you" Apollo, Podeison and Percy all say to him and he looks at them confused Apollo carries on

"For getting her out, without you she still might be there" he says to him sincerely, then looks at his love in his arms and realises he might of never knew about her at all if James didn't get her out of that horrid place, she would of never went to camp half blood where everyone found out about the daughter of Podeison that no one knew about.

James just waves them off "I don't need thanks for that, she was a kid who should of never went through what she did"
