*And now I'm covered in colors* The air in the cabin grows heavy with the scent of salt and fear. Percy jolts upright, his silhouette sharp against the dim light, chest heaving as if he’s just surfaced from a drowning dream. His eyes, wide and glassy, scan the empty room, searching for a mother who isn't there. Tears well in the corners, reflecting the harsh reality that he is alone, trapped in the cold silence of his own mind, clutching his arms as the phantom sensation of sinking water lingers on his skin.
