Chapter 18: COnfession of a Greecian Teenager
MIka was walking along the beach, just looking at the clouds and what not. Josh was sitting on a picnic blanket and watching her while he ate his ham sandwich. Mika finally sat on the blanket and turned to Josh.
"are... yall really like a big family?"
Josh shrugged. "sometimes... we have a lot of pranksters around there, and its real funny sometimes...."
Mika shook her head. "no... like a real family... like one you can tell any one your secrets... and no one would figure out... where you can do the most embarassing things... and not have to worry about it leaking out...."
Josh fidgeted uncomfortably. "what did eris say to you?"
Mika looked at her shoes.
Josh sighed.
"eris is going to kill me for telling you this.... but its more like... shes the mom... she always gets her way about everything. were nothing like a family ... she might want you to believe that because... you might not ever had a real relationship with your mom... but-"
"i dont know who my mom is..." mika interrupted quietly.
Josh looked down. "oh... sorry... i... dont know who my real dad is... either... i mean... i know who my mom is... but idont think she cares about me... im just one kid outta hundreds.. maybe thousands of kids out there..."
Mika put her hand on his shoulder. "im sorry... i... never knew..."
Josh gave a half hearted smile. "didnt expect you to... i mean we just met and all..."
MIka laughed. "thank you for being so considerate about all that..." she said sarcastically. "its not like we met with me being caught in a net by something you made or that you tried to fee me to a monster... or that you used a cattle prod...-" she stopped.
Josh had his head turned out to sea. He looked a little mad.
"sorry... i was just being sarcastic..."
Josh turned to her. "you dont get it do you?! nothing is going to be fun and games anymore. what ever you do, monsters are going to follow you and track you down. Theyll try to kill you. Theyll pop outta no where. Anytime. Anyplace. Dont you get it? the only reason were alive is because our parents want us to help them or another god wants us to help them. Were game pieces. Nothing else." then he stood up and left.
Mika sat there until the moon was up. she watched the moon ripple on the water. A tear went down her face. Everything she had seen, heard, and done, were exactly like Josh had said. They were just pieces of a game. A deadly game. Their lives meant nothing. She remembered seeing Cal and all those other kids. How Poseidon freaked out when she didnt listen to him. How no one seemed to care. Unless they got what they wanted from her. She felt like a puppet. She took off her necklace and stood up. She flung it into the ocean and watched it fall beneath the waves.
