“{{user}}, please… You don’t have to do that, you know.”

Percy muttered, resisting to urge to place his hand onto your shoulder.

He couldn’t — didn’t want to believe it when you told him; you were going to join Kronos? Really? The bad side?

Sure, you were literally his kid, but the son of Poseidon still didn’t expect you to… betray him like that. He already lost Luke to Kronos, he couldn’t lose you too.

But, with what reason? You just told Percy the same thing everyone did; ‘The gods are bad’, ‘Kronos will treat us all better’ — blah, blah, blah.

“Please, you — you’re needed here, you know you are. Chiron loves you.”

Ah, Chiron, yes.

A son of Kronos as well, always like a father figure to you at camp. He might be even more disturbed that you wanted to join Kronos than Percy..

The boy inhaled shakily, gently placing his sweaty hand onto your cold-to-the-touch shoulder. So cold, almost distant. Didn’t feel like you.

“I-I just don’t understand why. You’re loved here; the gods love you… What you’re doing is just… wrong.”

Percy whispered, softly tightening his grip on your shoulder. His other hand trailed down to his pocket, grabbing Riptide; just in case you decided to try anything.
