        Back to the present
          3rd Person P.O.V.

       While Kronos is in the pits of his mind, Percy uses this time to try to get out of his bonds.

                   PERCY P.O.V.

     Why is his grip so tight? My adhd is killing me. I’m literally squirming in his grip.





A half hour later.





        Ugh, get off me you evil titan. I have to move. Just laying here is torture. Which reminds me. Don’t you have some poor mortals to torture for your sick pleasure and enjoyment?


5 more minutes later.




      Kronos all of a sudden gets off me.  Not expecting it I, of course, roll off the bed. Ouch, why is the floor so hard?!?!
    “ I’ll be back later. Don’t do anything stupid.” And with that he flashes out.
  

     Drama queen.



       I carefully take the spider gag off. Who would have thought, that keeping a gag on for an hour, would hurt so much taking it off and relaxing said mouth.
     Looking around the small room. I notice there is a guitar leaning against the wall in the corner.

The Guitar

                      The song

(Voices in Percy's head. He is not going crazy it's just his little voice that tells him what to do. Percy's angel- italics. Percy's devil-  bold)
   
    "Hmm it's been awhile since we last played."

....

Nope, I promised I wouldn't do it.



    "But Kronos said he won't be back til later."

...

    Nope, not doing it.

Pauses all train of thought.

    Start reaching for the Guitar.

    Dam it all to uncle Hades. I will not play again, not after what happened last time.

   "But what happened last time?"

   "Yeah I don't remember what happened last time all I remember before the promise was some creepy lady who said I was her son. Creepy!"

    Yeah, it was definitely one of the weirdest things that has ever happened to me.

   Aw, what the Kronos. Let's play.

  Grabs the guitar and starts to tune it.

------------20 minutes later-----------

   OK now that that is done, what song should I play? I sat on the bed, contemplating what song I wanted to play. Hmm.

    "Oo, oo, oo, you should play handclap, by Fitz and the Tantrums."

   That could work.

    "No! You should play, This is War, by 30 secs to Mars!"

    "Let it Go!"

    "Boulevard of Broken Dreams!"

     "To the Dreamers, by For King and Country!"

     Enough, if you both can't pick a song that you both will like, then I will pick for you.

    " Awww, come on!"

    " You know you love us!"

    The song I pick to play is, "Song of the Sea" by Nolween Leroy.

  OK, here it goes. I walk over to the bay window and open it a little to catch a nice breeze. I breathe in, once, twice. OK, here it goes.

    (All 3 bold, italics, and underlined all 3 but one would only hear Percy singing. And the song above is the song he is singing)

Hush now my story
Close your eyes and sleep
Waltzing the waves
Diving the deep
Stars are shining bright
The windows on the rise
Whispering words
Of long lost lullabies.

Oh won't you come with me
Where the Moon is made of gold
And in the morning sun
We'll be sailing
Oh won't you come with me
Where the ocean meets the sky
And as the clouds roll by
We'll sing the song of the sea.

I had a dream last night
And heard the sweetest sound
I saw a great white light
And dancers in the round
Castles in the sand
Cradles in the trees
Don't cry
I'll see you by and by

Oh won't you come with me
Where the Moon is made of gold
And in the morning sun
We'll be sailing
Oh won't you come with me
Where the ocean meets the sky
And as the clouds roll by
We'll sing the song of the sea.

Rolling

Rolling

Oh won't you come with me

Where the Moon is made of gold
And in the morning sun
We'll be sailing
Oh won't you come with me
Where the ocean meets the sky
And as the clouds roll by
We'll sing the song of the sea.
