3rd Percy's POV (again)

Percy woke up to a dark room strapped to a vertical table with a horizontal table of 'instruments' set up before him, and he sighed accepting the inevitable: torture. The next hour Percy just 'lay' there in boredom until a titan that Percy never thought he would've seen again walked into the room, Atlas.

"How'd you get out from the sky" Percy growled "you should've stayed there"

"No you should've stayed away from the hunts slaughter" he smiled "but sadly you literally can't due to a certain fatal flaw of yours" he grinned evilly "and that's also why I am not even going to ask you about joining me or betraying Olympus because you won't...sadly"

"Then what are you going to do to me?" I asked a little fearful of what he had in store. I warily looked as he went over to the table filled with torture tools, and he picked up a wicked looking celestial bronze knife and a set of scissors.

"I am going to make you feel every bit of this, I am going to make you pay for what you did to me in the titan war. Forcing me under that stupid burden for five and a half years as my arms went numb and my body started to slowly fail me" he said and then he stabbed the blade into my arm, through muscle and bone. I screamed out in pain and he started to speak again as I groaned and looked at the knife in my arm in shock.

"I am going to be with you for the next three months so enjoy your stay...please" Atlas said and then ripped the knife out and the cut turned black as the poison from the metal infected my blood and he looked at it in disappointment "I forgot about the deadly affect that mythical metal has on demigod's blood and body. Well looks like you'll just have to deal with that until I have it 'fixed' by Kronos" then he stabbed the knife into my other arm and I held in my scream as the metal cut into my skin. He went on for the next hour cutting apart my skin with knives and the pair of scissors. I didn't give him the satisfaction of my screams, and eventually he got bored.

"I am going to make you scream, even if it takes me a thousand year down here" he said and at that my eyes widened in fear and he smiled evilly "yes you are back in the very being who hates you since the last time you were down here causing chaos, yes you're in Tartarus once again" I broke down in tears and I pulled on my restraints and struggled to do something even if it wouldn't get me out of here, but it was all in vain and the poison from the knives got to my mind and I blacked out in pain and fear.

I woke up groaning in pain and I looked down best I could to see that my veins had gone black and it was spreading out along my skin like a plague. The door opened and in came Kronos and Atlas who had his spear while Kronos didn't carry anything. They both stopped talking about war when they saw me conscious and looking at them in confusion and anger with my wolf glare. Making them both shiver, but they snapped out of it and Kronos came up and I tried to get away as much as I could but where could I go. He reached out and dragged an finger along my arm tracing the black veins.

"I guess that you didn't need me after all, but I am curious" he said and his scythe formed in his hand and he made a downward sweep and I grunted as the blade cut through the center of my chest going from shoulder to hip making a three inch deep gash in my skin. I looked at the black blood coming from it in confusion and interest as I didn't feel pain. Then it started to knit itself back together causing my skin to burn in pain, and I clenched my teeth in pain as he healed the cut and then made another, healed it, made another, healed it, and the rest of the time went like that with my staying mute best I could besides grunting and groaning. Until the pain got to me and I was barely conscious as he lifted my head to make me look at him, but I closed my eyes barely on the edge of consciousness.

"I see what you mean, he's very stubborn to adapt to the poison from the demon blood on the Celestial bronze and Tartarus metal knives" I was confused Atlas told me that it was only Celestial Bronze, I didn't see any red in it...the hilt. the hilt was red and it seemed to make the entire knife glow with power. I looked at it in awe. I survived a knife that could make a primordial fade, and there was this demon blood on it which I didn't see at all now as I looked back at it on the table lazily studying it.

Thanks for reading and I'll have the next chapter out soon, and as well as this writers block cast out.
