《Nightmares in Heaven》In a Nightmare
Advertisement
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Percy Jackson characters. Rick Riordan owns all of them. Sadly.
Persephone Jackson let out a ear piercing scream and jolted straight out of her bed. Her sticky black hair stuck to her forehead as her rapid breathing slowed down. She brought her hand up to her cheek as if she was making sure she was still there. Then the nightmare came back to her all too fast.
"Gods," she half sobbed to her self. Percy could remember every last detail in the horrible dream: it felt so real.
-------------------------------------------Dream-Start------------------------------------------
Percy happily walked, a skip in her step, past the cabins of Camp Half-Blood. She was having a great day. The fight with Kronos had just ended a week ago and she was still the the victory mood. The majority demigods had made it out alive and life was perfect.
Percy spotted Nico walking to the arena and she ran up to him, hoping to duel.
"Hey Neeks, wanna duel with me. I haven't had a sword fight in days." She had no intention of losing, of course, but it was nice to have a little friendly match with her crush, no friend. Just friend. She smiled up to his beautiful brown eyes and waited for him to reply.
She was shocked and hurt when all he did was growl at her with a kind of hate she had never seen before. Not even when she brought him the news of Bianca's death did her look at her with so much disgust and contempt.
"Nico," she said softly, while putting a caring hand on his arm," What's wrong?"
"What's wrong! WHAT'S WRONG!" he roared at her. Suddenly his eyes flashed with something she couldn't place and started to advance at her. She backed away, not liking this side of him.

Percy bumped into someone behind her and stifled a gasp. There behind her was Annabeth, Thalia, Conner, Travis, Katie and the other demigods at Camp Half-Blood and they looked mad.
Mad, she realized, at her.
They, too, began to advance on her throwing out insults and jeers that hurt her to the core.
"You're a monster!"
"You're a murderer!"
"How could you? You led us to death!"
"You don't deserve to live!"
The other campers began chucking small rocks and pebbles at her and she tried to shield herself, but in vain. Percy looked at her friends with pleading eyes, hoping they would rescue her from this horrible fate, yet they did nothing but stare at her with a cold, amused glint in their eyes, as if they were satisfied with the pain she was going through.
"You killed Luke! He was like a brother to me and you killed him!" yelled Annabeth.
"I loved him! I loved him and now he's dead! All because you stabbed him!" shouted Thalia.
(A/N. Just pretend, for the sake of this story, that she did love Luke.)
"You let Castor... no you killed Castor because you were too weak to protect him!" Pollux was a mix between furious and depressed.
"Zoe Nightshade was my best friend! If you were just a better fighter then maybe, just maybe she wouldn't be in the skies right now!" Artemis's face was red with anger.
They continued to remind her of all the deaths she had caused and Percy felt double the pain because she not only did she grieve her dead friends, she also hated herself for not being able to protect the ones she loved.
Luke, Castor, Zoe, Lee, Micheal, Silena, Beckendorf..., she thought miserably, It's all my fault.

But by far, the worst reaction, was Nico's.
His eyes were cold and hard yet Percy could see the rage and furiousness behind the mask. Suddenly the mask broke.
"How could you! How fucking could you! You promised me she would be safe, but you killed her just like all the others! I hate you Persephone Jackson! I hate you with all my heart! Why couldn't you die instead of her? You're a monster, Persephone Jackson, You're a cold hearted bitch who kills people. Just stay away from me!" He screamed at her, his face turning red with anger.
His eyes were raging with fury and Percy could see the devilish hellfire threatening to break free from within him. Apparently he realized that had no problem with doing just that, and he started to walk towards her, black fire licking his fingertips.
"No. No. No, no, no, no, no..." she whispered with heartbreak in her eyes as she backed away slowly, not wanting to die by the hands of her crush.
"You're time has come, Persephone Jackson. You took my sister's life and now I shall take yours!" cackled Nico, clearly enjoying the pain he was putting Percy through.
Percy looked back helplessly only to see her "friends" laughing maliciously at the sight of her cowering in fear, some even cheering Nico on.
She turned her attention back to Nico as he reached for her, the hellish black flames only inches away from her face and she screamed.
--------------------------------------------Dream-End------------------------------------------
Percy sniffled as she tried to wipe away the tears, but they just kept rolling down her smooth cheeks. All the pain she felt when her friends died had come back only worse, because now, her friends were blaming her for it.
"No," she said firmly to herself,"They aren't blaming you."
But even then, she didn't believe herself.
What if they are just hiding their true feelings for you? What if they really do hate you? her mind said.
"No, that's not true..." she trailed off.
But what if...
"Stop it!" she yelled to herself. "Oh gods, now I'm talking to herself." Percy let out a half sob, half laugh. Then she started to cry again; her brain had won the internal conflict.
She dove under the blankets and balled up the sheets in her hands as she continued to sob.
A/N. Okay so this is actually just the first part and the next part will be coming soon. I just wanted to tell you that I'm only in middle school and this is actually my first story ever so please don't blame me if it's kind of lame.
I also wanted to tell you that I'm not one of those writers that abandons my stories. I may take a couple days to get the next part up because I still have homework and all, but I will finish this.
Another thing is that this story takes place a week after the second Titan War. Persephone and Nico are not together yet, but they are both in love with each other.
For some reason, I've always liked Percy Jackson as a girl, probably because I'm one, and Nico is basically my second favorite character and people don't ship them enough. So I'm writing this cute one-shot.
