《When Machines Break》CHAPTER 4 - A dream?

LEO'S POV
I screamed and woke in a cold sweat. I breathed a sigh of relief. It was all just a dream. Frank hadn't really stormed in here and threatened me...had he? I felt my head, nope, no bruises from when I banged it. Hmm.
Just then there were some knocks at my door. "Leo?" Jason called hesitantly from outside. He slowly opened the door and came in. His eyes widened when he saw me.
"L-Leo! You're awake!" He shouted gleefully.
"Awake?" I asked, extremely confused, "What do you mean awake? I've only been asleep for one day, Geez Superman!"
"ONE NIGHT!" Jason exclaimed, "Ha! More like a week!" He said loudly throwing his arms around.
"Wait-what? A week?" I squeaked, very shocked.
"Yes!" Jason sounded exasperated.
Then he started jumping up and down like a hyperactive 5 year old on a sugar rush. "GUYS, GUYS! COME QUICK! LEO'S AWAKE!" he yelled, calling into the hallways.
There was a series of loud thudding sounds like stampeding elephants as Piper, Frank, Annabeth, Hazel and Percy came rushing in.
"Leo!" They exclaimed happily. Suddenly Frank came rushing forward, shaking like mad. Then he rushed up to me and gave me a massive bear hug. Literally, he turned into a bear midst the hug.
"Leo! I'm so so so sorry!!! Plea-Please forgive me! It wasn't my fault! I-It was one of the eidolons!! It had possessed the Hydra we were fighting and when it bit me it possessed me! Please forgive me!" Then he broke down into a sobbing blubbering mess.
I blinked at him with confusion. I then knelt down and gave him a hug. "I-It's okay, it was not your fault" I told him reassuringly. I know it's weird to suddenly forgive him like this, but I know what it's like to be possessed by an eidolon, and I don't want Frank, or any demigods, to go through it, it makes your soul feel icy, you have nothing but death thoughts and evil intentions, then when your are released from the possession, everyone blames you for things you haven't done.

I saw a look of relief wash through his features and he wrapped me in another hug, this time everyone else joined as well. We stayed like that for a bit. As a whole, as friends but mostly, as a family.
That's the end of Chapter 4! Chapter 5 may be out tomorrow or Thursday!

The Oddity: The One Who Does Not Belong
A purple ball descended from the sky, a gift from the primordial dragons, granting many races of the world access to magic. Unfortunately, humans were not one of those. During the great war, the magicless humans were nothing more than fodder, meat shields. Until one day, their powers awakened. After the war, with the ability to now wield, fire, water, earth, wind, or lightning, powerful magicians gathered to build a safe haven for humans, the Kaldora Empire. Before the humans had magic, other races prospered with it. But, within their midst, there were... oddities. People with an affinity for two elements. Each one leaving some sort of disaster in their wake. Each one, not quite fit for this world. A young boy's family, killed in an accident, only he and his sister survived the night. After that, they were split up, each taken in by a different relative. It has been eight years since the flames engulfed his home and most of his family. With his magic powers finally showing itself, he goes off to a magic academy to better learn about his newfound powers. But as he grows, something else does as well. The voice inside his head, the thing that influences his thoughts, the monster that he wish was gone, the devil inside his heart. This is a tale about connections. NOTE: The story will be slow for many of the chapters and the time will also match it, ex: goes by day by day. The time mostly will be used for introducing and adding to characters. It won't pick up until somewhere in the twenties but there will be action and events earlier on such as the missions. Just a fair warning. Order of Phantasmal Architects

The Hunt
Cecily's blade swung, hitting its mark as always. The man's arm fell to the cold grass of the prison with a familiar thud. He let out a blood curdling scream. A warning to the rest. Stay away, the Hunter is here. That's the name they'd given her, the Hunter. After she cut off the man who tried to rape hers masculinity, they stayed away. She'd made it clear anyone who tried to touch her would be hunted and slaughtered. Cecily kneeled down, pushing the man's face into the dirt so she could use his back as a seat while she trifled through his belongings. "You're hurting my ears," she told him, no remorse in her voice. "Quiet down before I really do kill you."The man but his lip, well aware that she wasn't lying. Sobs shook him, making for an uncomfortable seat. She, however, didn't particularly feel the beed to kill him. It happened, not often, but it did. "Oh, hush up," she hissed, taking out a bag of rations with her metal hand, "it doesn't hurt that bad."With her good, human hand, she dropped the plastic bag of food into her own bag. She pushed up, off the man back. As she was about to walk away, bag slung over her shoulder, brushing against her autumn colored braid, she turned back to him. "Consider yourself lucky," she said, no hatred in her voice, there never was. "Consider yourself lucky that you didn't do anything stupid. And even luckier if one of the scum bagged criminals in here feel a little light in their hearts and help you. Consider yourself luckier if you die there."With that, her old black and white Nike sneakers carried her off into the brush of the huge prison.
