Erin's POV

I was so furious with myself, I was overheating. My entire prison room was ablaze, and all of the guards had fled in fear. I knew what I looked like. My eyes were glowing red and orange, my hair would be flames, my body would be glowing like a volcano, and everywhere I walked, magma started to pool on the ground. Yep. Definitely overheating. 

I tried to cool down, and stop the fires but It only made me more mad. I screamed an banged my fists against the wall, cursing myself, cursing the fates, cursing Percy, cursing everyone. Especially that stupid, selfish, Athena girl. SHE had caused THIS! 

Annabeth had admitted to have cast an illusion to trick Percy into loving her back with the help of some Hecate campers. *cough* the illusion was me kissing Alex* As if. 

Suddenly, I heard shouts of panic and I knew they came from Annabeth's cell, across from mine. I guess her cell was starting to catch on fire too. Not my problem.

Okay, maybe it was, but she deserved it. 

"HEARTH! YOU CUT THIS OUT RIGHT NOW!" Luke shouted from nextdoor. We were all next to each other in the large, gloomy, blazing *cough*, prison.

"I CAN'T!" I screamed back at him. 

"WELL, ALL OF OUR CELLS ARE ON FIRE AND ONLY YOU AND LEO ARE FIREPROOF!" He screeched. I glanced and looked at Leo who winked at me as he relaxed in a large pool of lava that had probably seeped over there. 

"SHUT UP LUKE!" I shouted. "JUST SHUT UP! YOU CAN MAKE YOURSELF FIREPROOF WITH CHAOS POWERS!"

"NOT FOREVER THOUGH ERIN!" He yelled back. 

Then a new voice came. "ENOUGH!" Destroyer shouted. MY heart flopped over as He pulled down his hood to reveal black hair, not-so-shining sea green eyes, and a jagged scar running along his face. 

Destroyer swept a hand around and cool mist and water put out the flames and turned the magma to rock. I immediately looked at Leo, containing my outburst of laughter as I saw him struggling t remove himself from the rock was now stuck in. Then I turned my head to Per-No Destroyer. Was he here to take me to my execution? 

"What do you want Destroyer?" I asked, voice timid and small and fragile compared to how I'd been screaming just moments before. A single, hot tear fell down my face. 

"I want to see the gods overthrown. And camp Half-Blood destroyed." He said, grinning evil at me. "But that can wait, for now, I'm here to give you all your first round of torture. I hope you enjoy it." HE laughed, and raised his hands, wind starting to swirl around him as it all began.
