Percy stared at her in disbelief for just a moment, pushing her off of him. "What?"
The yellow eyed alien licked her lips in satisfaction. "How does that make you feel Perseus? Would you like to relive their screams with me? Perhaps that of your precious Annabeth?"
The word Annabeth triggered something deep within Percy as he took out his sword and went to cut off her head, hissing in frustration and pain as it hit nothing but the iron hard wall. Every bone is his body aching and arguing with Percy, pleading him to not do any more strenuous activity.
The alien looked at the sword with disdain but the same amusement that he had seen her with since the beginning stayed there. "Is something wrong love? You know you can tell me anything."
"Knock it off!" Percy capped his sword and put it back into his pocket, the girl watching with keen interest as the sword shifted back into a pen. Not the most interesting thing she had seen in her life but it was something different.
The blue skinned girl hummed to herself for a moment, "How does it feel? To be next to the one that tore all your friends limb from limb? To see them with their organs torn out of their bodies? Did you know the organs within a body can stretch up to multiple miles-"
"SHUT IT!" Percy had no idea where this side of him came from but she had really begun to irked his nerves and she didn't know to stop. Why was he in this situation? He had just taken care of the giants with the other demigods? Did the fates ever give him peace and quiet for once in his life?
The girl snorted, "The fates? The fates are lesser beings that have no control over anyone outside of their world. This was all our fathers doing, which he would love to see his new son by the way.~"
"He is not my father." Percy got up, ignoring the pain within her with each step he took. He had to get away from her, she was making him mad for a reason and he had to be the better one.
It only took three steps before he collapsed on the ground, his muscles and bones may have been aching before but now they were screaming at him, cursing Percy for pushing them to such a state. His breathing was horribly timed and he could feel pain everywhere.
"Ah look at my poor man, in such a sorry state. Father has ordered me to watch you rest and keep you company until you are able to walk!" The innocent smile was that of a mirrored devil. She was enjoying each and every second of torturing him for his failures. Picking him back up against his will bridal style, she walked just a few steps and set him back onto his bed. "Now be a good lover and stay where you are, Supergiant will take care of you."
Percy froze for just a moment and looked at her, "Supergiant? Wait! You read my mind earlier!"
She clapped her hands in delight, "Of course I read your mind silly! I control other people mentally. There is only one like me unfortunately but the ability to control other people physically?" She drew close and Percy took note of how they were in the same position now as they were when Percy woke up. "There is only one of someone like you as well! It is a gift from Thanos! We were meant to be!"
Percy shot her a look, "You can't say that about someone you just met. Especially someone that hates your guts."
She looked at him for just a moment. "Why exactly would you hate my guts?"
Why? Why would i not hate her guts. Taking a deep breath, Percy turned away from her and closed his eyes. Perhaps if he went back to bed this nightmare would end.
"Please enlighten me." A pair of eyes flashed within his head, pulling him out of what he was doing.
His whole body was shaking uncontrollably now. It was one thing reading someone's mind but another to be actively in their mind. It was horrifying, "W-What did you do?" The killer of everything he knew sat besides him and he couldn't even rest with her being here.
"I pulled you out from your rest, duh. Besides, you never answered my question. It's not very nice to hang up on a lady you know."
"I won't when I see one." Percy dryly retorted, losing his patience with the girl in front of him earlier. "I hate you because your father and the rest of your family destroyed everything I love, happy?"
A smirk formed on her face, perhaps the only nonevil thing he had seen yet on her features. "Why if I would say, you're already warming up to me."
Percy frowned and turned away, a small part felt guilt as he knew he was already getting used to the banter with the strange alien girl. The girl who murdered his entire family. "What do you mean by super giant?"
"One word, Supergiant. It is my name after all, better get used to it. I'm pretty sure Thanos will be assigning me as your bodyguard for quite a while as well! We can be together forever!" Percy struggled to internally repress the groan and just barely made it.
A bang on a door across the room shook the room and scared Percy slightly, making him sit up in an instant and his hand instinctively going to his pocket. A hand was placed on top of his hand within his pocket, "Supergiant, Thanos needs you." With that loud footsteps walked away
Supergiant sighed, "We were just getting to the good part as well. Well then hero, I guess you can rest just for a bit. Don't worry, i won't be gone long." With a wink Supergiant placed her hand on Percy's forehead and shoved him down on the bed.
Before he could respond, all he saw was blackness.
Then as soon as it came, light reappeared. This time he was in the room at once, with Supergiant right above him. The second time they were in this position. "You know if people start see us in this position, someone will start talking."
An amused smirk graced her lips, "Oh really? I don't know about you but I'd like that quite well."
Percy rolled his eyes and shoved her up, the aching was still there but not nearly as bad as it had once been. Still, the grunt that escaped from his lips was echoed within the room. "How long was I out for?"
She shrugged, "The equivalence of Earth days? About two and a half. Space time travels differently in a sense then you would be used to but you'll get used to it quite soon."
Two and a half? "Why was I out for so long?" Percy asked her, glancing over his should to see the alien in the same spot once more.
She shrugged once again, "A bit of torturing someone for information, nothing too spectacular."
Percy's tension rose. "You shouldn't be torturing people." He whispered. The act of standing above another was wrong. All people were equal and all should have some benefit to life.
"Equal?" She repeated his thoughts aloud, "No, no one in this galaxy. You must fight grain by grain to strive for what you want to achieve. Even if you fight for the lesser beings what good does it do? If given the chance they would gladly take your spot from beneath you. Setting you on a threshold even further beneath them."
"Shut up for once, will you?" Percy asked. Honestly, did she ever try to stop one upping him? It was as if she always had to be right in everything.
Soft delicate fingers wrapped around him and he felt her behind him, the same time as the battlefield only days ago when they had been fighting. "Are you mad that I am right?" She whispered into his ear, nibbling it softly.
Percy shot up at once and threw her off. "Knock it off now."
"Where I am from, it's normal to take ones mate after you kill them." Never before had Percy wanted to punch such a snug smile before.
Taking a deep breath always calmed him down in these situations, changing the subject he asked, "Where is your father at? Is he ready for me?"
A surprised look morphed on her face but a bright smile that reminded Percy of a predator remained, "He is busy at the moment attending to other matters. Galaxy domination takes time to prepare after all."
"Galaxy domination?" Percy could say he hated the sound of that quite a bit. Those that always strived for power always wanted to be on top of everything else in the world, and they always wanted others to know it as well.
She tilted her head to the side. The yellow eyes still having the amusing flame in them. It was something Percy hated so much, being seen as nothing but a plaything to the alien in front of him. "Oh Percy you are much more then just amusement to me. Do not worry though, you will see the enlightenment in due time."
Standing up, she picked him up. A light hue appeared on his cheeks. "What do you think you're doing?"
She glanced down at him, "Getting you healed. While healing is not exactly my forte the sooner you see father the better. You also have yet to meet two of our siblings as well, both Nebula and Gamorra came back from an assassination trip not too long ago." Opening the door with ease, Percy found himself in a large hallway that was strangely ... empty.
After walking for quite a few moments Percy couldn't stop himself from asking, "Where is everyone?" The hallways were completely bare. Not exactly what he expected of a spaceship.
"Other then the bottom feeders that barely have minds down below? Only nine of us live on the ship. Thanos with his four sons and four daughters. Each of us have our own quarters with Thanos's in the middle. After some time you may get your own quarters but for now you're with me." She said, not halting her moments at all as she came across a door and knocked loudly.
A sharp 'come in' was heard from the other side of the door and Supergiant had no qualms kicking the door wide open. There was a strange man that stood on the other side of the door who was as stiff as a tree and was quietly working on something. "Could you have been a little quieter Supergiant? I am working on a neuron transplant and it is a rather delicate task."
Supergiant rolled her eyes. "Can you heal him? The affects of the battle still have a toll on him and I am sure father would rather see him sooner then later."
The man's eyes flickered up to Supergiant and down to Percy and it was then Percy got a good look at him. Other then the elf like ears and not having a nose the man looked significantly more human like then Supergiant did. Walking over to Percy he held up his hand, "Ebony Maw, son of Thanos at your service. I saw you on the battlefield, fascinating that a demigod was able to do as much as you did." He trailed off for just a moment, "So very fascinating, what I would give to experiment on you."
Is there not a single sane person on board? Hesitantly he took the man's hand and shook it. "Percy Jackson, and no, you may not experiment on me."
The man looked actually sad, "Such a shame, very well. You remind me quite a bit of Gamorra. Bring him over to my bed and lay him down, put him asleep while you are at it." Ebony Maw quickly added on.
A brief flicker of amusement lashed on Supergiant features. Before Percy could talk her out of it he found himself within a deep slumber once more.
As soon as he passed out he woke up to find himself in Supergiant's room for a third time. "How do you feel?" It was the first time she had asked about his wellbeing.
"Much better, whatever Ebony did helped immensely." It was the first time since the battle he felt rejuvenated. "What exactly did he do to me?"
She shrugged, "Healing isn't exactly my forte, mine is relying on the mind arts. I watched your memories by the way with Ebony, some impressive stuff I saw there. Being able to fight off two primordials at your age is no small feat." She put a finger on her chin and tapped it multiple times. "A shame we didn't fight you while you were at full strength, who would have known the carnage that would have come?"
"Can you stop?" Percy lamely asked. "Please just stop bringing up the fight."
Her yellow like eyes seemed to pierce into him as she watched him for just a moment. "I suppose that is acceptable." Getting up from the bed, she picked Percy up once more.
"What are you doing. I can walk fine on my own now." Honestly it was getting ridiculous.
She didn't say anything but Percy could see the smallest twitch of her lips shooting up. "I suppose you could. But I think it would be a wonderful idea for father to see how much we've gotten along."
