The Godslingers X: Chapter 9

Melody's P.O.V

I saw Quent shadow traveling outside the cage. It looks like there is a flaw in the cage, and Finn forgot to fix it.

Then, I went to Hyperion's cabin, tending my dad.

"Father, do not despair. You will be fully healed soon." I told him.

"Uhhhhhhh..... Melody..... I wishhhhhhhhh thhhhhhhhhhat couuld happen....." Josh murmured, and he slumped to his bed.

I was already sleepy, so I went to sleep.

In my dreams, I am in Mount Everest.

--

After my dream, I woke up. Then, I went outside to check Camp Half-blood again.

Quent is now in a statis cell that is torturing him more. I could swear that in one minute, it's gonna kill him.

I saw him writhing in pain. "OOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Quent screamed.

Then, Finn approached us. "Now, that is his punishment for escaping his previous punishment.

Then, after 3 minutes, Finn made the statis cell shatter, and Quent was lying on the ground, burnt to a crisp.

Finn approached him. "Oh, son. I am so sorry."

Quent nodded, and his body went slack.

At the same time, I was looking at Lyre. Lyre tensed, and she straightened.

"He's dead." Lyre declared.

"Noooooooooooooooooo!!!!!" Finn lamented. "I'm so sorry, son! I am not supposed to treat you like this!!!"

Then, Chiron told us to prepare the shrouds.

We put a shroud over Quest, and it is embroidered with a symbol of lightning.

"For Quent... I am sorry, that I had punished you for this." Finn said, and burning the shrouds that is set on Quent's body. The body was there no more.

Chiron turned sternly at Finn. "Cleanup duty for 3 months. Meanwhile, it is time for us to eat."

Just then, we went to the dining pavilion, and to my surprise, I saw Quent. He's here, but how could he be alive when I saw him burned to a crisp, and when Lyre already know he is dead?

Then a thought struck me. Someone had chained Thanatos again, and we need to free him. No one will die with him out of commision.
