We're at war. || Luke & Thalia
"Yeah well maybe you already lost me!" she yelled, "Maybe you lost me when you let me sacrifice myself on Half Blood Hill, so that you and Annabeth could be safe; or maybe you lost me when you poisoned me. Maybe you lost me when you raised a Titan and caused thousands of deaths, Luke, I don’t know." What she was saying was true, but it didn't feel right. It hadn't been her voice, hadn't been her thoughts. All she was aware of was this hazy sort of rage that filled her head and made it hard to breathe.
The look of his face both disgusted her and caused a painful sort of twisting feeling in the cavity of her chest. It was a pain she vaguely recognized but didn't understand. The more he stayed, the longer she looked at him, the more she despised the son of Hermes with all of her being. Not for the curse, but for herself. She shook her head and sneered, "Why on Earth would you think I want help from you?"
Luke was standing right before her with that stupid concerned expression, as though the past five years or so had never happened. Her heart skipped a beat in that moment, but she pushed the memories aside. Well, the good ones anyway. Right now it seemed so much easier to remember all the bad that he'd done. "I'm finished, Luke, I think I've had enough," she said, exhausted, regaining some small part of herself, "Leave before I do something I'll regret."
