The Pierced Hearts

The Pierced Hearts is a short story that tells of how a boy, who seems to be a player develops a plan on how to get rid of his infactuation's boyfriend. This tale is one that has a blanded taste as throughout the story, you will see how messed up Prycer truely is.

Celeste
She is the cover art character and the main protagonist of the story. She must find a way to defeat Prycer without resorting to the fatal option, death. Celeste is a demigod that has never been claimed do to her knowledge of her godly parent's fading and her mortal parent having died some unknown time period after her birth.

Silver
He is the second main protagonist of the story. He is the son of Ares and the current boyfriend of Celeste, he is also very protective over her, especially when Prycer is involved, because he knows of the seriously deranged things that run across Prycer's mind. Silver is arrogant and very wild, when it comes to many things, but when alone with Celeste he is very polite, civilized and often has a sense of humor.

Prycer
He is the main antagonist of the story. He is a son of Tyche and because of that he was given a blessing to inherit money and a very manipulative person. Prycer seems to have the power to control the girls of camp and more importantly he has been using small supplies of this power to control the daughters of Aphrodite. Prycer is revealed to be the major villan after a certain incident.

The Pierced Hearts
Leaves danced on that same night.

I want to say, it was unexpected, but sadly it wasn't. I grazed through the clearing, as the same boy that I had thought of to have been just a major pervert had appeared before me. He had blonde hair and green eyes full of dispar and resentment. The boy had also had a creepy crush on me for the passed three years. I gazed at him, to wonder what was he doing here.

"Isn't this the most romantic place in all of Camp!" He murmured as he opened his arms and began a slow but steady walk towards me. My heart began doing jumping jacks as my brain raced. I wanted to run. Anything just to get away from this creepy werido. Prycer was never the kinda guy, I like accosiating myself with. He was definitely bad news, and considering the fact that Silver doesn't like him, that also gave me a reason not to stick around him. I backed away slowly, as he made his approach. In a sudden back flip, I created distance between the two of us.

He clapped and praised me. "Amazing, how a woman of your stature could be so agile and beautiful." He suddenly appeared right before me with a white rose in his hand. His eyes were passionate, and judging by the closing distance he was attempting in making a move on me. And the thing that I wasn't fond of was him actually succeeding. Not that I'd ever think about cheating on Silver. He was the best boyfriend that I could ever ask for, and that goes to say a lot considering how he was when we had first me.

I suddenly, pushed the freak Prycer away, as I recovered even more distance between the both of us. "You should never get close to someone, especially one their boyfriend happens to be stronger and faster than you."

Prycer rose to his feet as he dusted himself off. He was sporting his favored green jacket and because of this he never liked to get into fights or get it dirty. "Hmph, I see you've become agressive. Interesting. I'd like a girlfriend that is agressive. All the others that I have don't seem to have your personality."

"Others!" I examined. This kid was beyond weird. The thought that he would get one girl, with that crappy personality was amazing, but to get multiple was even further intruiging. I gazed at the kid and summoned up my celestial bronze dagger.

"Oh yes!" He said gingerly. "I have many, considering the fact that all of the daughter of the beauty goddess are my girlfriends, I'm sitting pretty. But you, Celeste, you shall be my wife. The one person above all others."

"Your wife?" I repeated. "In your dreams playboy. I'd rather die than be your wife, if anything I would be Silver's wife! I love him and care for him more than I'd ever care for you."

Prycer closed his eyes and smirked a low pictched laughter. As he opened his eyes, he gazed at the full moon. It was beautiful, no doubt and on top of that, tree leaves danced across the sky displaying an ominous moment in the nighttime sky. "So you do care about me, yes?"

I gazed at him with pity. The boy wanted me to answer yes, but the thing about that was. I couldn't even stand him. Prycer was the creepiest demigod I had ever met. "No, I don't care about you at all. If anything your complete scum, and if you try anything to ruin my relationship with Silver, you will decend into becoming worse than scum."

It was at that moment that I recalled what my best friend had once said to me. She had talked me out of taking action against the enemy team. Her long blonde hair cascaded as she stood in front of me as our commrade had been captured.

"We have to keep moving, let's focus on the mission." I stated boldly, as she hesitated.

"Those who break the rules are scum, but those who abandon their comrades are worse than scum! If I'm going to be called scum either way, I'd rather break the rules! " She replied.

Now gazing back at Prycer, I took a deep breath and moved backwards. "Prycer, let's just forget this ever happened and live a life away from each other. I don't want to have to resort to violence."

In a teasing laughter, Prycer moved forward. "I'm sorry but, but it seems like things aren't gonna go your way. Celeste, either you become my wife, or I'll just have to resort to other meathods of pursuasion." He moved forward and made his towards her.

In a spiral kick of fierce winds, Ice appeared right before Prycer's foot. As he jumped backwards the Ice exploded and out of the mist, was the very boy that had stolen my heart. There he was looking so awesome, Silver sporting his famous claok without any shirt underneath, his hair was messy almost like he had been asleep.

"Sorry, I'm late." He said holding up a hand ready to fight. "I was in a pickle trapped in a dream inchantation, but now that I'm here, Prycer let's play."
