Hello! Depending on when this is posted, I uploaded two stories today! This is kinda a backstory to when Thalia said she had heard the name Percy before in The stars.
Thalia looked up from the map of Manhattan to see a hellhound walking into a store. The sign read, Sweet on America. She immediately unsheathed Argus and ran across the street to stab the hellhound and walk in. What was he looking for? Standing beside the counter was a boy of about four years of age, and he was looking straight at her. "Hi, what's your name?" She asked. Before he could respond, a kind-looking lady walked out from behind the counter and said," Hello. I'm Sally." "Is he bothering you?" She added looking at the boy. "No, but my name is Thalia." The little boy looked up and said, "Cookie." Sally reached behind the counter and brought out two blue chocolate chip cookies and handed one to Thalia and one to the little boy. Thalia knew looking into the boy's green eyes that he was a half-blood, and that he was quite powerful too. "Percy, are you about ready to go home?" Sally asked the little boy who she now knew as Percy. Thalia felt like Sally knew more than she was letting on. She felt like Sally knew she was a half-blood, and much more. As she walked out of the store, she wondered whether she would ever meet them again.
