Olympus : The Last Olympian

Summary: A prophecy was told that the last Olympian was to be born. She will face the toughest of challenges as the last Olympian. In a world where people can bend one or two elements, Annabeth was born. After the death of Olympian Hestia, Annabeth is supposed to protect Olympus, a city created by Hestia. Problems arise as Annabeth makes new friends who help her along the way.


Prophecy :

Previous Olympian surrenders to death,

As the Last Olympian takes her first breath,

Problems arise from different places,

The last hero fights on all four paces.

Last Olympian influences a big deal,

On whether or not the world will kneel.


ANNABETH :

"Hold up, Tina !" I shouted as I chased after my animal guide. Tina is an owl. She's really special because she can change sizes. I sprinted after her as her grey wings glided through the air freely. Her wings were the same colour as my eyes. My golden hair shined in the sunlight, whipping around my face. My regular attire which consisted of a deep blue long sleeved shirt and black pants made my run somewhat a challenge.

Seeing that Tina was way ahead of me, I made my hands go in some circular motions. I was lifted by a small tornado I made myself and I went after my owl. How can I generate a tornado ? Well, I am the Olympian. The Last Olympian. I have already mastered all four elements : air, water, earth and fire. I am the second Olympian to be able to generate lightning and also redirect it.

I was born to Athena and Frederick Chase. My mom's an airbender and my dad is an earthbender. I don't know how they met but I'm happy that they are happy. Anyway, I have a brother who is got my dad's element which is earth. We live on the outskirts of Olympus and he moved to the city to pursue his dream of becoming a great builder. I was born on the day Olympian Hestia died. Thus, that made me one of the people suspected of being the last Olympian. But no one knows about me other than my parents. To other people, I am a normal kid who can bend air and earth.

It's common for people to bend one or two elements because some benders marry other benders and viola. The existence of non benders isn't rare but they aren't big in their numbers. Considering that I've been living in secret, there is this council looking for the Olympian. I don't know their motive but if my mother didn't want to reveal me then it could be one bad motive.

I have grey eyes, blonde hair and tan skin. My hair was sort of curly. Some refer to it as princess curls. Great, add that under the word Olympian and people would never believe I am one of them. Olympians, that is. I have a lean figure and I'm quite strong because I've been training from the time I found out I was an Olympian. A few months after I discovered I was an Olympian, the omega mark appeared on the palm of my right hand. All Olympians have them. My mother thought that it'll put me in great danger so that is why I wear a fingerless glove on that hand.

I caught up with Tina and I stuck my tongue out at her and she hooted. I added more force to my bending and beat her when I passed our finish line, which was an olive tree. I landed on the ground and waited for Tina to arrive. She glided swiftly and landed on my shoulder. I scratched the area under her beak and she responded with a hoot.

"Well, I am sorry I beat you, Tina. I can't help it if I'm the Olympian," I said to her as I walked to my house. I plucked a few berries from a bush near my house and I gave some to Tina. She turned her head away. Right, owls want mice. I pushed open my front door to see the living room all messed up. Our chairs were toppled over and our table was in half. The portraits were burnt and the carpet was teared. I carefully walked to the house, eyes wide.

"Mom ?" I called out, cautiously. "Dad ?" I made my way to the kitchen. It was in the same state as the living room. Where are my parents ? A loud crash from the backyard caught my attention. I looked out of the smashed window and saw some fire bolts come out of my dad's workshop. I ran out of the backdoor, Tina flying behind me and opened the door of the workshop as stone disks flew my way.

"Dad !" I yelled as I saw him prepare another stone pillar for attacking. He stopped but the firebender before him didn't. He shot some more fire balls and I ducked. I noticed that my mother was hiding behind a table, holding her injured arm. The attack went on and I made an earth shield protect me from those nasty fire balls as I ran towards my mother. I noticed another firebender who was on the floor, stir. I crouched down beside my mother.

"Mom, are you alright ?" I asked. She coughed and hacked a few times. I grew worried. She gave a weak smile.

"I'm fine, Anna," Before I could respond, I felt electric sparks enter my system. It was slowly making it's way to my heart. I closed my eyes tightly as I gained control. My hand shot out in the direction of the firebender, shocking him. He sunk to the ground, fidgeting.

"What happened ?" I asked my mother, bewildered. Tina hooted a few times.

"Annabeth, you're going to have to go. You need to find shelter in the city. You'll find your brother under the name 'Malcolm Langford'. It isn't safe for you here anymore. They tracked you," My mum dug into her pocket as my dad shot a few rocks. The firebender I shocked was slowly coming into consciousness. Mum took my glove covered hand and put a small sack of money in it. "Take it. You might need it. Now, you need to go while they are just two."

I nodded and stood up, making myself an easy target. A spark of lightning came my way and I intercepted it with my index finger and my middle finger. I breathed in and shot it back out at the other firebender. He was knocked out. No one could handle that much lightning so I feared that I might have killed him. The other bender, the one that sent the lightning at me shot some fire 'knives'. I surprised him by shooting fireballs myself.

I heard some pounding and the door to the workshop was burned to the ground. Two other firebenders walked in and the one I was fighting shouted, "That's the Olympian !Get her !" I did a roundhouse kick and the air responded. It pushed them to the walls and I ran out of the door. Tina followed closely behind me. The benders tried to catch me. I threw them off my bending water out of a nearby pail and creating some sharp shards of ice. I made them head in their direction.

"Tina, go big !" Tina responded to my command. She grew in size and I jumped onto her back. She soared through the air and we left the benders. I wonder what would they do to my parents. Tina soared through the air and flew faster. I could withstand the air pressure. I quickly tied the sack to my pants. My shirt smelt of burnt things and my face was all dirty. I wiped my face with my sleeve.

After a few hours, Tina and I arrived at Olympus. Tina landed behind a huge oak tree in a nearby park. I hope the people that saw us would ignore what they saw. Tina turned back into her smaller size when I was safely off her. I leaned against the oak tree and tried to catch my breath, rethinking about what happened. Tina perched herself on one of the branches.

"I can't believe that just happened," I sighed. I ran a hand through my hair. I stood up, determined to find my brother. "Come on, Tina. Let's find Malcolm."

SCENE CHANGE

First, we asked the people in the park about Malcolm Langford. They looked at me like I was crazy before saying that Malcolm was very famous, very successful and very unreachable. I wondered mindlessly before getting a flier from some kind of promoter. It was very interesting. It had the figures of two people on it. The first person was a man with brown hair and warm brown eyes. Under him was the name 'William Dare'. The second person was...

My brother.

I recognize his face even if it was like a few years since we have met. The flier was about an economic battle between the two. I was too absorbed in finding more information about my brother when I collided with some stranger. I almost hit the ground. Out of reflexes, my hand pulled out a small stone pillar and I steadied myself by grabbing it. Tina, who was on my shoulder, retreated to the tree near us.

I made the pillar vanish and looked at the stranger. He had messy jet black hair and sea green eyes. His body was tall and lean with a bit of muscles. He was wearing a black tee shirt and blue pants with a deep green jacket on. Around his neck was a green scarf. I couldn't see half of his face. I picked up the flier that was lying on the ground. The flier was crumpled and I frowned.

"Look where you are going," came a voice from behind the scarf. I gritted my teeth, angrily.

"It's not my fault that you are busy suffocating yourself with a scarf," I said back. He pulled down his scarf a bit and his lips completed his angry look. His eyes were narrowed and his lips were set in a firm line. "Why am I even talking to you ?" I wondered out loud. I walked pass him and bumped his shoulder pretty hard.

I called for Tina and she fluttered back. Her look clearly said, 'Don't do that. You have to be polite'. She even hooted it to me. I rolled my eyes and replied that it was he who should be polite. I decided to look out of the park. I asked some passer biers about Malcolm but none of them knew where he lived. Or at least they didn't want to tell me. It was until I met this really sweet old man that I knew where he lived.

So an hour later, I was standing outside of my brother's mansion. Wow. It was huge. There were big gardens and a few cars outside in the open. Mom didn't tell me that he was this successful. Tina gave a low hoot and I gulped before pressing the button. There was a loud ding sound and the door was opened by who I assumed as the butler.

"Who are you ?" He asked with a slight French accent. I swallowed and cleared my throat.

"I'm Annabeth. I need to see Malcolm," I requested.

"Why are you here ?" He asked, annoyed.

"I kind of need to see Malcolm right now. I'm his sister," I said.

"That is preposterous!"He yelled. Suddenly, I heard a door slam and a young man with black hair and grey eyes appeared in view.

"Grey, what is it ? Is it another one nighter ?" He asked, buttoning up his blazer.

"No, Master. It is merely a girl claiming that she is your sister," He told him, his nose in the air. Malcolm raised an eyebrow before looking at me. His eyes widened.

"Annabeth ?" He asked in disbelief before hugging me. I smiled and nodded at him. He kissed the top of my head. "What are you doing here ?"

I pulled away and frowned. "I have bad news." Malcolm shifted slightly. He pulled me into the house.

"I think you should take a shower and change. I'll have clothes out for you and tomorrow we can go shopping to get you some more. For now, I have a guest coming over." I was taken to a huge bedroom and given a really fluffy towel. Tina perched on the bed before kind of rolling over on it. I chuckled. Malcolm raised an eyebrow.

"I didn't notice it there," He observed Tina. I smiled.

"I can't believe you don't remember Tina," I chuckled. His eyes widened before gasping.

"Oh !"

"I'll be taking a shower now," I said, stepping into the bathroom. I closed the door and started to strip.

"Okay, the clothes will be on the bed," Malcolm shouted. I responded with an 'mhmm' and stepped into the shower. I noticed a slight burn on my left arm. I didn't realize it was there. I used my water powers to heal it. After getting out of the shower, I dried myself and wore the clothes Malcolm set for me.

It was a deep green dress with ruffles. As much as I would love to burn it, I know that I have to wear it. I slipped it on and dried my hair. After that, I slipped my glove on and the black boots I found on the floor. I wonder whose dress am I wearing. There was a knock on the door. I opened it to see the butler with his head down and he told me that dinner was ready in a small voice. I followed him to the dining hall.

Malcolm was already there and the servants started serving us food. Malcolm smiled apologetically at me. I raised an eyebrow. "I tried to get Tina to take a bath but she turned really small and disappeared." I frowned and looked around. I whistled.

"Tina, it's okay. I'm here !"I called out. My owl didn't come out. I bit my lip.

"Why are you wearing a glove ? It doesn't suit the dress," My brother complained. I rolled my eyes.

"I kind of have to. Besides, I think it suits the dress just fine."I countered. There was a loud ding and I assume that Malcolm's guests have arrived. I paid attention to the food in front of me before Malcolm greeted the guests.

"Ah, you've arrived," He said, warmly. I turned my gaze to the people at the doorway. My eyes widened when I saw that it was the guy I ran into at the part. His eyes widened slightly when he saw me. He was wearing a more formal suit but still had his blue scarf around his neck.

I was about to slink away but at that moment, Tina decided to show up.


Amy : First of all, I am really sorry for deleting some stories and writing new ones. I can't help it. I'll probably update some time later. I have an upcoming exam and it is important.

BEWARE ! Next year, I might not update as much as I like to because in that year, I'll have an extremely important exam which will show whether I would stay in my school or be kicked out and go into a boring, normal school. By then, I'll probably update at least once a month.

Review !

*Reviewing will be a great belated birthday gift. My birthday was on October 4th and I have read the Mark of Athena !
