Hey everybody! I'm back! I just thought that Blackjack deserved a story about himself. I always wondered how he got on Luke's ship, what he thought, and how he felt during PJO and how he reacted when Percy disappeared. So ya, that's what this story is about that. If u review, u will get a virtual cookie! Here I go! :P
The Story of Blackjack
Chapter 1
Location: Camp Half Blood, during the time when Percy disappeared to Camp Jupiter
Blackjack's POV
HEEELP! I need to find out where Camp Jupiter is to pick up my boss and fight Ms. Dirt Face to save the world! Man, my checklist of things to do just keeps growing! Don't worry boss! I'll save you! Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. I am Blackjack, the almighty steed of my boss, Percy Jackson, and greatest and fastest Pegasus alive. My fatal flaw is….sugar, or sugar cubes. My buddies call me Blackjack the Sugar Addict. But enough about my awesome self, I'm lookin for ma boss. I sure do miss him, so do all of my bros, after all, he's kind of the only guy who speaks horse. (Besides Lord Poseidon) I'm worried if he got hurt, or changed, or.. or.. or even find a new horse! This is why I need to get to him ASAP!
Flash back:
When Annabeth walked by the stables yelling that boss was missing, I went wacko. He's da one who saved me from the Princess… Andro or something. He gave me sugar cubes and… you know where I'm going with this, right? I got my buddies Guido and Porkpie and we looked all over for him… but we got nothing. Nada, zero, zilch.
I just gotta find my boss. We go waaaaaay back, from the start of him saving me from the Princess…er… I'm just going to call it "the Ship", kay? But before that, a little about my history shall be revealed. Muhahahahahaha! Okay, I just wanted to do a mysterious laugh. MUHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA! Okay, I'll do enough of the laughter and shall reveal my history…. MUHAHAHAHAHA! Sorry! I couldn't resist!
I was just a normal Pegasus who looked stunningly good without trying in the stables of Camp Half Blood. Back then, my friends called me Blackjack cuz I ALWAYS won against them. We bet sugar cubes. HEY! Humans like gum! Pegasus like sugar cubes. Anyway, I got aaaaaaall their sugar cubes. Sure we get sugar seizures but it feels AWESOME! You humans have to try it! Anyway, I was kind of the most care free Pegasus around. I went across the borders whenever I wanted to, I gave rodeo rides to the campers I don't like, fun stuff! But then, *cue dramatic and heroic music* Perseus Jackson, Son of Lord Poseidon, and Savior of Olympus came to this prison- I mean wonderful cool place. I REALLY wanted him to choose me as his horse but he didn't really notice me. And when he did come to the stables, I was out playing freeze tag in the sky with my buds. So ya, that's how it was. I mean, me and all the Pegasus knew that he was a son of Lord Poseidon, but does anyone listen to da horse? No! Weeeeeell, I don't blame them. They can't actually speak fluently in our language. But they eventually found out that he was a son of Lord Poseidon during their..um.. oh yeah! Their Capture the Flag game! Kind of a dumb thing to do; you learn better skills when playing blackjack. When boss does get claimed, he gets a quest and goes with Annabeth and this satyr named…give me a minute….I know it, it's at the tip of my tongue…..I got it! It's Grovel! No, that's not it….Wait! I know I got it right this time! It's Grover. Anyway, boss went with Annabeth and Grover cuz old man Zeus (thunder rumble. "Sorry Zeus!" He's got serious anger issues, but not as much as Ares) thought boss took his masta bolt. I'm not that sure about what happened after that. All I know is that they went to Hades cuz they thought he took it and boss wanted to get his mom. They don't give us Pegasus the juicy details. Anyway, about two days after boss left, this guy, Luke, comes up to me in the middle of the night. He was breakin da rules! I was about to wake up my buddies until he threw sleep bomb at me! The last thing I saw was Luke smiling. And then everything went black.
