Hera's One True Treasure
There was smoke lingering everywhere, forcing my eyes to water, and sting.
"No!" I screamed as an arm reached out to stop me from moving any further. Ducking around it, I ran towards the burning building, the smoke engulfing me. Recovering from a coughing fit, I ran farther into the smoke and closer to my childhood home.
"Demetrius, No!" I heard a man's voice from behind me.
The man's yells fell on deaf ears, as I got closer to the house. Staring in horror, I saw my home, burning with flames as tall as trees. Not just regular flames either, but bright GREEN flames. Fire I've only read about in Geek Mythology. Greek Fire, fire of the gods, can't be extinguished.
I kneel there, watching the firemen spray the roaring flames with water, for what feel like hours.
"There's nothing more we can do chief." I hear someone saying, and with that I stood up and walked away from everything I've ever knew or had. But instead of a graceful exit I'd hoped for, I ran straight into someone.
"I'm so sor-" I started to say, until I recognized who it was. "Why are you following me, and what do you want from me?" I try to sound brave, but it comes out desperate.
The man, for there was no other words to describe him, was hot. He had chocolate brown hair in a military hair cut. He looked to be about six foot five, and had muscles that looked like it took forever to achieve. He wore black pants that hugged his muscular legs in all the right places, a white t-shirt that clung to his wide chest and a leather jacket over his shirt. I couldn't see his eyes that were hidden behind a pair of black sunglasses.
"Smart kid," The biker man said, as he reached up to fix his glasses. "I like you, kid. Call me Ares. As for what I want, well, can't say yet. I had to follow you, to observe."
"Observe? Observe what? Why? It's not a war here, so why do you need to observe me? I'm nothing special." I murmured the last part mostly to myself but, Ares still heard me.
He sighed and came so close to me I could smell his scent and it smelled like an army base. He lifted his hand and cupped my cheek; I couldn't help the instinct to lean into it. "Like I said, I can't say, but you're special, kid" He leaned in towards my face, and my eyes fluttered closed.
I noticed the feel of his hand fooled my senses, because when I saw it, it looked rough and calloused, but when he touched my cheek it was smooth against my cheek.
"You are so special, Demi." He whispered, as he continued to move closer to my mouth. Then I felt the brief brush of his lips, then both his lips and hand vanished and I snapped my eyes open to an empty yard.
I sighed, "Special, yeah right," and stuck my hands into my pockets. I almost yanked them back out, when I felt the leather pouch. Pulling it out, I noticed it was reddish-brown and there were 13 symbols on it; A lightning bolt, trident, peacock, owl, boar, grain, fire, grapevine, caduceus, moon, sun, dove, and another that was undecipherable. When I opened it up, it was like an armory inside. It held daggers, swords, a shield, a bow with a quiver of arrows, spears, javelins, etc., but when I pulled them out everything transformed into something wearable. The daggers, swords, spears, and javelins turned into rings, the bow a glove, the quiver into a backpack, the trident into a necklace and the shield into a leather band around my wrist. When all the weapons were out, there were other stuff on the bottom; a tool belt, a big brown book, two letters, a first aid kit, and a box wrapped in brown paper. The big book turned out to be an atlas of every location in the world. It worked as long as I say the location into the pages. The two letters were addressed to two people Mr. D and Chiron. Who ever they are, I don't know. I set a majority of the items back into the pouch, and then put the pouch into the backpack of arrows. The only things I left out were a few rings, one of each weapon, the necklace, the glove, band, and the book.
"Now where do I go?" I said out loud.
'Look in the book' a voice whispered in my head, which is weird because I never heard voices before.
Cautiously, I open the book to the first page, like I did to see what it was, and saw a new message at the end of the instructions.
The road to Camp maybe dangerous,
But the location is Half the treasure
For those with divine Blood, it's humongous
It's the greatest place for their pleasure.
I stared at it for what seemed like a while, I wasn't sure of the time. Then it struck me odd that there were three random words capitalized. Camp, Half, and Blood.
'It must be a name to somewhere.' I thought placing my hand on my chin. 'But what is it, and where?'
"Camp Half Blood," I murmur looking at the book, when suddenly it turned to a page that was close to the middle of the book.
I stared at amazement. The book gave me detailed directions from right where I stood.
'Follow the map' the voice in my head said again.
Since it led me to look in the book, then I decided that I would follow it.
When I had everything put where I wanted it, I heard a rustling behind me. Turning around I saw a monster that looked straight out of a Greek mythology book.
There, only about 50 yards away, stood a women that had a snake tail for legs and her skin held a tint of green. When she smiled, my skin crawled because; there in place of her canine teeth were two sharp fangs.
"What are you?" slipped from between my teeth before I could stop it.
Right as I said that her head snapped, like whiplash victims, in my direction, and she took a deep breath.
"You, you smell like Her. You're Him." She said sounding so amazed that I was even alive. Then she gave a grin that a predator gives its prey.
I decided not to stick around to figure out what she meant. That didn't work out very well, because I heard her scream and slither after me.
"Shit," I screamed as she caught up to me, "What do you want?"
"Your head on a platter, Demi-god. " She hissed into my face.
"So sorry, I need that." Suddenly my shield activated, causing the snake woman to hiss and back away
