Luke had to admit it, the underworld was just plain boring. He had been here for less then 24 hours and he was already being driven crazy of boredom.
He was waiting in the Fields of Asphodel for his "special" trial with lord Hades.
In this eternity, he had plenty of time to think of all the wrongdoing he had done in life. His entire soul ached to go back in time and fix it. If he had known where he would end up, he never would have helped Kronos in the first place.
He thought of Camp Half-Blood. He thought of Percy, the child of the prophecy. He thought about Annabeth, his sister-like friend. He thought about all he did for Kronos.
But most of all, he thought of Thalia. He pictured her in his mind: her punk styled black hair, her electric blue eyes, the way she would roll her eyes at him when he was being insensible.
Once, he could have sworn he saw Silena and Beckendarf in the crowd.
After an eternity, his wait came to an end. Undead warriors shoved him into Hades throne room.
The God of death sat upon his throne made of human bones. He glared down at Luke with such ferocity that it made him shudder under the gaze.
"Step forward, Luke Castellan son of Hermes!" Hades yelled, scaring Luke half to death. Well technically he was already dead so not quite sure how that works...
Luke scrambled forward and knelt before Hades throne. He hoped flattery would score him some points, "Yes Lord Hades."
He could practically feel Hades stare on his back as the God said, "I've been receiving many complaints about what to do with you, Castellan."
Luke gulped, all the half bloods were probably begging Hades to condemn him to the fields of Punishment.
"You betrayed your fellow demigods and gods, you form a monster army in hope of bringing down Olympus, and you play as host for Lord Kronos. If it were my choice, I'd put you in the Fields of Punishment this very moment." Hades paused, "But, your friends and the gods are convinced that you deserve a second chance."
Luke's gaze shot up to Hades. He was absolutely shocked. After all he had done, he was getting another chance?
"So, Luke Castellan," Hades began, "Would you like to go to Elysium or be reborn?"
Luke thought about it for a moment. He had always dreamed of being reborn, living a new life. But... This feeling kept tugging at his gut. Reborn! His mind screamed. But his heart yelled, Elysium!
He went with his heart for the first time in his life, "Elysium." He said confidently.
Hades sighed, obviously bored with the whole thing. He snapped his fingers and Luke's vision went blank.
He woke a few hours later, peering up into a face he thought he'd never see again. Silena Bergaurd and Charlie Beckendarf sat on either side of him. (A/n: Sorry if I spelt their names wrong XD)
He sat up slowly, rubbing his eyes, "Where am I?"
Silena smiled at him, "Welcome Luke! You're in Elysium!"
