Prologue:
"Oh, you say we should spare you?" Zeus boomed, "and why is that?"
I step forward putting all of the Olympians of a sort of edge. I smiled, "Oh Lord Zeus!" I throw my hands up and fall to my knees for emphasis, "please, let me tell you our story."
Ignoring the suppressed giggles from Cale and Bram behind me, I did something no one ever thought we would do…
I told the truth.
Valda:
As the daughter of Zeus, I always had to be the example, even now that the war with Gaia over, I was always ready for battle, always sitting on the edge of my chair. Just in case I had to jump up.
And even now while I was sitting next to Thalia's tree, I was on edge.
Val, maybe you should chill. I think, you have no responsibilities, would it hurt the world for you to doze off for a sec?
My eye's started to close; I was almost asleep when I saw them.
Three teenagers, hiking up Half-blood hill. I shot to my feet, drawing my sword.
They almost looked like half-bloods, but something about them was off. Other of the campers seemed to notice the group of three too. It was strange they were standing in front of the boarder.
And the girl in the middle laughed and said something like, "I think we're famous."
Although this shouldn't have happened they stepped through. The small group of people behind that was beginning to form gasped.
"Hey," The guy with sandy blonde hair said, "I'm Cale."
We were all quiet, in shock.
Well everyone except Thomas.
Thomas was an overly out spoken son of Ares. So who was I to think he wouldn't follow his usual pattern? "kale?" Thomas barked, "Like the vegetable thing?"
The girl in the middle snorted, "Uh, no, as in Cale, with a C, diminutive of Caleb. In the old testament Caleb was a companion of Moses during his time in the wilderness."
"Whoa," said Tom, "looks like we—
"Have a daughter of Athena on our hands" the brunette finished for him.
"How did you—
"Know what I was going to say?" she interrupted again. And although I didn't think that It was possible, she left Thomas speechless. "Because, I'm no daughter of Athena, I'm Willa, Daughter of Prometheus, Titan of foresight."
The boy on the other side of Willa stepped forward, "And I'm Bram, son of Oceanus, Titan of fresh water."
I took a step back as the boy with Sandy also stepped forward. "I'm Cale, son of Kronos, the Lord of time."
