The Complex(A TMRxPJOxTMI Fanfic)

Chapter 4

I woke up on a dark room with enough light to see , again. The Box is the first thing that I remembered. I admit that I kinda panic. I sat up not knowing there's a wood on my headboard. So you know, I bumped my head and I hate it. I felt the soft bed cushioning my butt but short enough so I can feel the wooden frame of the bed under my feet.

I looked around and saw Max and Newt and another guy talking to Sebastian about something. The guy Sebastian who is talking with is a blonde. Great. I've met three blondes today. I just wish my hair is black.

"Hey Luke, Percy's awake," I heard Newt said to the guy. So, Luke is his name huh? They, Newt, Sebastian, Max and Luke, come near beside my bed.

"Where are we?" I asked Max.

"We're at the Slammers. Serves like a prison for bad Shanks," Newt answered for him.

"Am I bad?" I put my legs in front of me so I'm facing them.

"Fortunately, no. It's just that no one should hear us. Just us five. Well, it should've been four of us but Max insisted," Newt looked at Max who is smiling sheepishly.

"So Percy, I want you to meet Luke," Seb clapped the other blonde guy in hus shoulder.

"So, hi Percy. I'm Luke, they call me the Leader of the Glade, which I really am. We're gonna talk about your screaming and fainting but before that," he turned to Max, "Max, I need you to go. This is a private talk between us four. Please?"

"Fine but on one condition," Max smiled.

"What's it Shuck?" Newt asked him.

"I'm gonna take half of your dinner," Max crossed his arms challenging.

"Ok ok. Fine just go. You can have half of our dinner," Luke agreed and Max's smile spread from ear to ear, "Thank you! Thanks!" he said excitedly, running out of the Slammer.

"Is he always like that?" I asked.

"Yes," three of them answered simultaneously.

"Okay, so Percy. Can I see your Mark?" Luke asked stepping forward towards me.

"Of course," I tilted my head to the left so the right side of my neck is exposed.

After some seconds showing my Mark, Luke finally talked, "Yup, that is one different Mark. Oh yeah! I also have one on my neck."

He showed me his Mark and I saw a pole with two wings on the top of it. Two vines twirl around it. But as I look closer, these vines turned out that they're snakes. Scaly reptiles snakes.

"Many of Marked ones have this Mark too which means I'm not the only one. As for you, you're the only one. Anyways, no need to feel lonely. Let's talk about what happened before. Why the screaming?" he shifted the topic to what happened earlier.

"I don't know what happened. It's just that, I looked in the sky. I saw the colors. I caught a scent of salty air on my nose. And memories scrambled in my mind making it hurt, explaining the clutching my head," I said.

"Oh, so you're memories are scrambled huh?" Newt asked me.

"I think so."

"Okay. Let's talk about that tomorrow mornin' okay?" Seb stepped forward.

"Let's head to the Glade. They are eating. Let's get something to fill our hungry stomachs. Hopefully, Max meant eating just the half," Luke smiled.

I stood up and saw Luke clearly. Luke is a taller than me a little making it hard to see his face. I squinted a little bit and I saw his worried blue eyes.

Why would he be worried?

"Hey, you okay?" I asked him.

"What? Oh, yeah yeah. I'm okay. Let's head to the kitchen to eat. It's dinner time isn't it?"

After he said that, my stomach grumbled.

"Yes. It truly is dinner time," Newt said.

And we laughed like crazy idiots. No, like brothers.

And for the first time, I felt like this is my home.
