Chatterbox: Inkwell

PJO Fun Stuff!!!

Hi y'all. So, as you guys may know, I am, in fact, very good at writing little bits of PJO/HoO fanfics. I wrote both a Jason and Leo backstory in the past, and I might have posted them, I don't really remember.  Anyhoo, I wrote a new one over Thanksgiving break that thoroughly depressed me, so I must now share it with you! 

So, imagine this: Right before Luke visited Annabeth and tried to convince her to run away with him again, he whips out a phone and calls her. It goes straight to voicemail. I bet his message would sound something like this:

Hello

It's me

I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet

To go over

Everything

They say that time's supposed to heal ya

But I ain't done much healing

There's more. So, a while after that, right after Kronos had possessed Luke's body, Kronos is exhausted. He has physically drained Luke's body as much as he possibly can, and he's sleeping. Suddenly, Luke wakes up, and is briefly in control. Even though his body and mind are literally at the point of death, he calls Annabeth again. 

Hello

Can you hear me

I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be

When we were younger

And free

I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet

There's such a difference 

Between us

And a million miles

Then, during the battle of Manhattan, right before the Titans' final charge, Kronos's powers are so depleted that Luke is able to call Annabeth one last time. 

Hello from the other side

I must have called a thousand times

To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart

But it don't matter it clearly doesn't tear you apart any more

Hello from the other side 

At least I can say that I've tried

To tell you I'm sorry

For everything that I've done

But when I can you never seem to be home

Months later, when Percy goes missing, Annabeth is rummaging around his cabin and frantically looking through her voicemails to see if there's anything at all that could help when she finds the three from Luke. Chiron found her there, hours later, sitting on Percy's bed, sobbing for both of the boys she loved. 

Tada!
