I'm back! With a new story called 'How It All Began'! Be proud 'cuz that's what I am! ;)
So this is a story about the second generation of PJatO! Ok, this is how I picture the kids of the characters would be in my mind. This story is rather about Percy and Annabeth's daughter October Sally Jackson and how her life is when she first comes to camp and how she met this tall mysterious guy from the Hephaestus Cabin...
So!
I really hope you ENJOY!
October's POV
"This is gonna be so cool!" The twins exclaimed. I rolled my eyes.
"Of course it's gonna be cool! It's Camp Half- Blood!" I replied back.
"How do you know it's so cool? You've never been there, besides when you where a little baby but…" My dad (Percy Jackson, you've properly heard of him, perhaps?) asked from the drivers seat.
"From what you've told us, it's pretty cool. I mean, what kind of camp have climbing walls with LAVA around it? And centaurs? And satyrs? And nymphs?" I asked in a matter of fact tone. He cursed in Greek witch made me, the twins and mom (Annabeth Chase, or Jackson now) laugh.
"Curse you Athena Brain!" He yelled. My mom and Tim glared at him. I know this comes out random but let me tell you this, while I got both my grand-parents powers, my brothers just got one of them. Tim got Athena and Matt got Poseidon (Me-1, Twins-0!)
"Percy…" Mom warned him, me and Matt still laughing our butts put.
"Daddy is in trouble!" We said in a sing-sang voice. Dad glared at us, not looking at road until mom yelled: "LOOK OUT!" He jumped and took a BIG swing. Ehem. We almost got hit by a truck. "You almost killed us, Seaweed Brain!" Mom yelled, hitting him in the back of his head. He yelped.
"No, I didn't!" He yelled back.
"We almost got hit by a truck, Daddy." I pointed out.
"Oh, shut up, all of you!" He yelled and we where silence for the rest of the ride.
Once we pulled over an hour later, I looked around the place.
Nothing.
Just a BIG field forward and a big hill on our left.
"There's nothing here!" Tim wined. I turned to my parents but they where already halfway up the hill.
"You coming?" Mom asked us. I gaped at them.
"I-I… Where are you going!" I yelled, grabbed my suitcase and ran up the hill after them.
"To Santa Claus" Dad said, sarcastic. I rolled my eyes. "Where do you think?" I was about to reply back but it came out more as a gasp, because we where on the top of the hill and was overwhelmed of what I saw. Kids chasing each other, some playing Volleyball, satyrs chasing after nymphs, who turned to trees the second the satyrs got them (Poor satyrs, smashed in trees), this BIG strawberry field, and I could see a climbing wall around red stuff which was bubbling.
Lava, I thought…
"Hey! Wait for us!" The Twins yelled and ran up the hill but stopped when they reached the top and got the same expression as I got. "This is Camp?" The exclaimed.
"Exactly!" Mom said. "Come on! Let's go meet Chiron" and then walked away. I've heard about Chiron. He's a centaur (Well, the only centaur who is here), the one who trained the most amazing and athletic half-bloods and heroes in history (*Cough* Hi Dad! *Cough*) and the leader of Camp Half-blood. According to my parents, he was like a father to them. Specially my mom...
We walked for a little while, until we stopped in front of a big house. I guess this is the Big House… So original to call a big house for 'The Big House', may I add.
We walked to the porch where we met a middle-aged man in a wheelchair and a black haired, fat guy with sunglasses so I couldn't see his eyes, and I had a feeling that I shouldn't see them either. He was wearing a leopard t-skirt and was drinking coke.
My mom cleared her throat, which made the two men look up. The one in the in the wheelchair beamed when he saw us, while the other one groaned.
"It's been 16 years! Why did they have to come back?" He whined.
"Wow, what a nice welcome" I murmured to myself, but the twins heard me and snickered. The coke man glared at me.
"Don't play sarcastic with me, missy" He growled and drank his coke. "I can turn you into a dolphin if I want to… It's not that hard" I rolled my eyes, but it didn't seem like he noticed.
"Oh! Calm down, Mr.D, will ya?" Dad stepped in and grinned. "And besides, you can't turn my princess onto a dolphin, that's my dad's job" I gulped. He can't do that, can he? Mr.D snorted.
"Yeah! Like that Fish Head can do that" While dad and that disturbing fat guy continued to argue, mom came up to the other man and hugged him.
"Annabeth! It's good to see you" He said. Mom gave him a tight hug.
"Nice to see you, too" She said. They pulled away and the man looked straight at me.
"Oh gods! You've grown since last time I saw you!" He exclaimed and I looked properly as lost as I felt because he chuckled. "You properly don't remember who I am. Last time I saw you, you where three months or so… I'm Chiron by the way" I gaped. That can't be Chiron? Can it? But he's a, a… I was cut off my own thoughts when 'Chiron' said "Just wait a second" and he started to stand up from his wheelchair (Is that even possible?) and then the weirdest thing happend. The whole wheelchair turned into something and a second later, there stood the same man, but he wasn't in a wheelchair, heck! He didn't have a back-part, ok he had a back-part but not a normal one, no. He was half human, half horse. I gaped again. Chiron sighted.
"Ah! That felt good!" He said. I looked up again, mouth still hanging open. He looked at my face and chuckled again.
"Let me start all over: Hi, my name is Chiron and I know who you are October Sally Jackson" He said and took out his hand so I could take it.
"How do you know me?" I asked. "I mean, how do you know my full name?"
"First of, I know everything about every demigod that ever lived on this planet" Chiron said proudly. "And that I was there when you where born…"
"Oh…" Was my only reply. I had forgotten that he still waited for my hand so I took it and shook it. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Chiron" It looked like he like that name because it looked like he beamed.
"Mr. Chiron. It has a nice ring on it" He murmured to himself. Mom began to laugh and that made Chiron get out of his trance.
"Any who… Welcome to Camp Half-blood!" Chiron said. Then he turn to the fight between my dad and the Coke guy. "And that's Mr.D or Dionysus. The god of-" He was about to continue but was cut of by the twins who exclaimed: "Hey! It's the Wine Dude!"
"Timothy Bradley and Matthew William Jackson! That's not a very nice thing to say!" My mom hissed at them but I saw that she tried not to laugh. But my dad was another story…
"Haha! They called you Wine Dude!" He laughed. "Remember who said that the first, Wise Girl?" He looked at mom, who started to giggle. Then suddenly she burst out crying and dad got to her side in a second. "Hey! What's wrong?" He asked, rubbing her back gently. I smiled. I just love my parents relationship. I wonder if someone can love me like that someday. I sighted.
"I miss them!" Mom sobbed. "It's been so long!"
"Sh! They'll show up. We had a deal… Just wait and see" Dad assured him.
"Am I missing something? Who's 'they'?" Matt asked. I rolled my eyes at him. Stupid.
"I wonder that, too" I manly voice said from behind off us. We turned and faced no other that Nico di Angelo standing there with a smirk on his face.
"I'll leave you alone" Chiron said and walked away.
"Yes, finally I can leave!" Mr.D left and 'proofed' away. We rolled our eyes.
Oh, how I'm gonna love this summer!
We turned to uncle Nico in shock.
"What? Don't I get a hug?" He asked. Mom stepped closer to him. She looked at him for a second then…
SMACK!
"Fuck, Annabeth! What was that for!" Nico yelled at her, rubbing his cheek.
"For being an asshole! You and your stupid family just simply leaves for gods knows how long and make me look weak!" She yelled. Nico smirked.
"You know you love me…" He said as mom attacked him in a hug.
"Ass!"
"Missed you, too!" They stood there for a while until we heard someone clear their throat. Dad…
"Ok! Enough hugging my wife! Come here, little guy!" He said and gave the younger man a manly hug. Then Nico hugged everyone, me the longest. He always liked me the best (One thing is because I'm best friend with his daughter and that I can irritate my parents like no one haven't had the guts to do so…) Then we heard someone gasp.
"How insulating! How come I don't get a hug?" Thalia di Angelo (Yes, I said di Angelo) asked, fake offended while holding her little baby, Roman Pluto di Angelo (Yes, I had to say his full name). I played along.
"Well who wants to hug you? Everyone is after the little kiddo. Hi Roman!" I cooed at the little baby and took him out of her arms.
"How is my favorite di Angelo!" I cooed. Everyone laughed at me and so did Thalia. "Oh! Who am I kidding! Come here!" I exclaimed and hugged her. Then a thought popped up in my head.
"If you guys are here, then where is di Angelo nr. 3 and 4?" I asked. Yeah! I number that awesome family. Uncle Nico is di Angelo nr.1, Aunt Thalia is 2, Lilly is 3, Luke is 4 and Roman is 5, yeah, you get the point. Nico chuckled.
"Their here somewhere… I think nr. 3 is in my cabin… Hades cabin and 4 is-" But I didn't listen to him since I began running. I stopped when I heard them yell my name. I turned.
"What?" I asked, irritated.
"Roman?" Thalia asked gesturing to Roman in my arms. I looked down.
"Nah! I'm taking him with me! Now, excuse me, I'm gonna go and kick some butt!" I yelled and started running again.
I wasn't running anymore, I just walked round, one thing is that I had Roman in my arms, the other thing is that I wanted to explore this place.
Then suddenly I slammed into someone, witch made Roman cry.
"Aw! Thank you!" I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm and looked up at the person who slammed into me. I gasped. It was a guy, about my age, with black curly hair, deep brown eyes and looked really muscular. He had a little tanner skin than me. And boy, wasn't he hot!
"I'm sorry!" He apologized. "I didn't mean to slam into you… Is he yours?" I laughed.
"No! Of course not! I'm to young for that stuff! I stole him…" I said, waiting for his expression. His eyes widen.
"You stole him?" The boy asked. Roman wasn't crying anymore.
"Exactly! His my god parents' youngest child, I think you know them. Nico and Thalia di Angelo?" His eyes widen again.
"You mean THE Nico and Thalia? Son of Hades and daughter of Zeus?" He asked in disbelief. "The ones who helped in the 2nd Titan War?"
"That's them? Problem?" I asked, challenging him.
"No, that's just so cool you know them!" He said. "I would've died if I could meet them or any who was in the Titan War…" He said dreamily.
"Oh really? Like who?"
"Them, Annabeth Chase" He got that dreamy look again. Ew! "Clarisse la Rue, all of them! And of course: Percy Jackson!" This cough my ears.
"What about him?" I asked.
"He's my hero! He's like the hero of Olympus! Without him, the gods wouldn't be here today! I'd love to meet and get to know that guy!" He exclaimed. I laughed at his face.
"What if I told you that I know all of the people who was in the war?" I asked. "And all the gods?"
"Your kidding!" He said.
"Nope! No kidding!" I said. It looked like he didn't believe me, but dropped it.
"You new here?" He asked out of the blue.
"Yes or kinda no, since I only was here when I was little…"
"How? You've known about this place your whole life?"
"Yup, and about the gods and stuff… My parents told me that" I said proudly.
"So, who's your godly parent?"
"I don't have any… "
"Then why are you here?" He asked. I looked my hurt by that, and I guess he saw it since he quickly added "Not that we don't want you here. just asking!" I smiled. He was actually sweet.
"I don't have a godly parent, I have a godly GRAND parents" I explained. "My parents are demigods"
"And who are your parents?" He asked. Oh! I can't wait to see his face now!
"Oh! I think you've heard of them in your history class here. Both was part of the Titan War. My dad was the one who saved Olympus and I think you know exactly who he is…" My voice trailed off. He looked shocked.
"You're not talking about Jackson?" He laughed nervously. "Are you?" I shrugged.
"Maybe. Maybe not…"
"I didn't catch you name?"
"I never told you… " I said smiling.
"And?"
"October. You?"
"Chris"
"Nice to meet you, Chris"
"You too" We smiled. Then we suddenly heard someone yell my name. We turned and saw uncle Nico coming our way.
"Tober! You still know that you have the kid in your arms right?" He asked me. Chris looked like he was about to faint.
"That's, that's…" His voice trailed off.
"Yes. That's Nico di Angelo…" I said, rolling my eyes.
"Who's the kid?" Nico asked when he appeared in front of us.
"Chris. Someone I just met. Chris meet Nico di Angelo. Oh! And here is 5" I gave Nico Roman back (I had forgotten I was sill holding him)
"Thanks!" He said. "Nice to meet you, Chris"
"Nice to meet you, too" Chris managed to say. I laughed.
"What's wrong with him?" Nico whispered. That made me laugh even harder.
"He's just a big fan…" This cough his ears.
"Oh, really?" He asked and tried to look good and awesome now. Chris looked up, confused.
"Ok, ok! That's enough, Uncle Nico! Just take 5 with you and move your ass!" I said and hushed him away. He chuckled and walked away with Roman.
"How can you talk to him like that? He's the son of Hades! He could kill you with just a snap with his fingers!" Chris exclaimed. "And besides, who calls a baby 5?" I laughed.
"Ok, first of: He can't kill me! I'm his favorite, besides his own kids and second: He's name isn't 5, it's Roman! I just calls him that! It's a habit to do that with that family…" I explained to him.
"O~kay…"
We stayed like that for a while when suddenly a thought popped up in my mind.
"You know this place, right?" I asked him.
"Like the back of my hand, why?"
"Could you show me around? I mean, until I find my friend" I smiled.
"Sure, when do you want to start?"
"Now?"
"Ok, follow me" He said and offered me a hand. I hesitated for a second but them took it. It felt warm and good… Why am I even thinking this?
"Ok, so this is the cabins!" Chris introduced. My parents told me that their once was 12 cabins in camp, one for each of the 12 big gods in Olympus. And that they where placed as the shape as an U. I've always imagine how that would look like and now I'm here but it doesn't look like an U to me. And it more that 12 cabins, WAY more! It looked more like an O to me. I feel kinda trapped in here...
"This is way more than 12 cabins!" I exclaimed. He chuckled.
"That's because there IS more that 12 cabins. After the War, Camp started to make more cabins, now for every god, even minor gods, could have one. So now camp have been disband through those years" He explained.
"I never asked you who your godly parent is?" I said, but it came more out as a question.
"Cabin 9" He simply answered.
"Witch is?"
"Hephaestus cabin" I looked confused.
"Not to be rude or anything, but I thought all Hephaestus kids where, um… how am I supposed to say it…" My voice trailed off.
"Ugly?" He suggested. "Yeah I know that, I got my looks after my mom, and so did my brother… And I'm glad"
"Brother? Like half brother or real brother?" I asked.
"Real… Kevin. 12 years old. Blondish hair, blue eyes, same tan skin as me…"
"You didn't have to give me all the details…" I murmured and giggled. Wait! Me, GIGGLING? That's a first…
"I know, but I just felt like it… Come on, let me show you the rest" He said, grabbed my hand (I blushed at that) and dragged me with him.
And that's how it all began…
