The end?

Monday, 7th of October

I coughed.

Okay, so maybe turning the mortar back into an un solid mush wasn't my best idea.

Being slammed against those bricks hurt like hades, but it was just the right force to make the tower collapse in on itself.. and on Kampê.

I mean.. that's how she died the first time.

I had dealt an extra blow with riptide too, stabbing it directly into her side.

I pray she is dead.. please.

Ow..

It was dark, dusty and very pokey.

I was pretty much surrounded by a bunch of shattered bricks..

Really really not my best idea.

I guess I'm lucky to be alive, I'm not sure how yet, but I won't judge that logic.

For now I needed to break free..

I pushed at the bricks, some budging and making room for more bricks to fall in.

So.. never mind.

"Percy!"

I frown. I know that voice somewhere..

I hear bricks being thrown to the side, and I make an attempt to reveal my presence, "here! Over-" I choked, coughing on the dust.
"-Here" I finished belatedly.

Brick by brick, I seemed to see a little light.

I mean, it could be my imagination. Ha, maybe I was dying and that's Elysium.

Or.. it's the light and I'm breaking outta here!

I manage to stick my hand up and push more bricks out of the way,  this time getting them to roll down the stack instead of falling into my little hole.

"Percy-" the voice was just beside me now, and we worked together to push the bricks away, although more started falling in.

"Red Hood-" I started to question, a frown on my face.

He pulled me up slightly-just out of my hole, took off his helmet and pressed his lips to mine without a moment's hesitation.

"Mmph?" I pushed away for one second glaring. "What the actual Hades-"

My eyes land on the white in his hair. Even though he was wearing a mask it didn't fool me.

No.. freaking way.

"Jason Todd you-!" He kissed me again, shushing me of my scolding.

"Shut up.. please."

Jason TODD WAS KISSING ME AND IM JUST SITTING HERE?!

I flung my arms around his neck and kissed him back. We fell back out of the hole, a stupid grin on both of our faces.

"You ass! You lied to me!" I said once I broke away again for air, mock glaring down at him as I pretty much straddled him while he laid on bricks.

Ouch.

"I didn't want to.." he said apologetically. "Trust me it killed me not to tell you.."

I flushed. "You- you flirted shamelessly as- as HIM!" I poked his chest.
