The group ran until they were exhausted. Rachel steered them away from traps, but there was no destination in mind—only away from that dark mountain and the roar of Kronos. Eventually, they stopped in a tunnel of wet white rock, like part of a natural cave.
Theo couldn't hear anything coming from behind him, but that still didn't make him feel any safer.
Those unnatural golden eyes staring out of Luke's face were still haunting Theo's soul. The feeling that his limbs were slowly turning to stone tainted Theo's soul to the point that he was reevaluating his entire life.
"I can't go any farther," Rachel gasped, hugging her chest. Annabeth had been crying the entire time they'd been running. Now, she collapsed and put her head between her knees. Her sobs echoed in the tunnel. Theo sat next to her, not moving too much in shock over what he just saw.
Nico and Percy sat next to each other. Nico dropped his sword next to Riptide and took a shaky breath. "That sucked," he said, which pretty much summed everything up.
"You saved our lives," Percy said. Nico wiped the dust off his face. "Blame the girls for dragging me along. That's the only thing they could agree on. We needed to help you, or you two would mess things up."
"Nice that they trust us so much."
Theo shined his flashlight across the cavern. Water dripped from the stalactites like a slow-motion rain. "Nico...you, uh, kind of gave yourself away."
"What do you mean?"
"That wall of black stone? That was pretty impressive. If Kronos didn't know who you were before, he does now—a child of the Underworld."
Nico frowned. "Big deal."
Theo let it drop. He could tell Nico was trying to hide how scared he was, and Theo couldn't blame him. Annabeth lifted her head. Her eyes were red from crying. "What...what was wrong with Luke? What did they do to him?"
