So, this is a fanasy of mine, that I have to release somehow. Luke is REALLY OOC (Out Of Character), so he'll be extra bad.
Which reminds me, all characters in the story, are NOT demigods. This is an AU (Authors' Universe) story. They do, though, still have powers. Example: Will is not a son of Apollo here, but he can still heal magically; A Light Sorcerer. And so on with all 'demigod' charactors.
I am NOT Rick Riordan, thus I own none of his properties (or talent).

Prologue
~3rd Person's P.O.V.~
Will Solace, a Light Sorcerer, pushed back away from his desk with a sigh.
His Instructor, Chiron, had given him twenty Spells to memorize by the end of the weekend. He currently had three of these done. Will glanced at the clock, noting the late hour, and groaned under his breath.
"Getting frustrated?" Said an amused voice behind him. Will turned to see his close friend, Jason, leaning against the door frame. Jason had power over lightening, Will knew, and reminded himself he wasn't the only one struggling with exhaustion.
But over the two of them, they're roommate Percy had it the hardest. He had power over water. And that stuff was pretty much everywhere. Will had to speak another language to cause mistake; Jason had to summon lightening, or storms, or whatever, to screw up; but Percy, he couldn't help it. Water was too common not to cause chaos. The slightest gesture, and he broke the sink faucet or something.
Will grinned lazily. "Yeah, a little. My head's getting too jumbled up to comprehend the stuff." He stood and stretched while Jason straightened himself.
"How about a break, then, hm?" Jason said caringly. "Me and Percy were about to start a movie."
"Well, as great as that sounds, I was more thinking a walk in the woods. I gotta move around. Sorry, man."
Jason smiled. "I understand. We both do. Just be careful, don't be long."
"Geez, someone's gaying it up." Will said, causing Jason to snort.
"You wish."
It was true, though. Jason was gay. So was Will. And even Percy was. But none of them were attracted to each other. In fact, Jason was seeing a boy named Leo. Will wasn't interested in something real, preferring hook-ups more.
Will smirked, his stress already eased quite a bit.
But just at that moment, the sound of pipes bursting, along with a "Fuck!" sounded from downstairs.
"Shit." Jason said under his breath as the two blondes ran to the source. Percy stood in the kitchen, pale-faced. Water was shooting from the sinks' faucet, or where the faucet was supposed to be.
"I - I'm sorry." Percy muttered. Will fixed the faucet with a few words as Jason helped Percy calm down. But Percy shooed him off. "Please guys, I don't wanna be babied. Jason, let's start the movie. Will, you coming?" Percy spoke as if the accident didn't happen. Will withheld his objections, knowing this was how Percy coped.
"Uh, I was going for a walk in the woods, actually."
"Then go ahead. Take your phone."
"Take out your tampon." Will teased, patting the phone in his pocket. Percy scoffed, the mischevious sparkle returning to his eyes.
Without futher accidents, Will set out. He didn't particularly like the dark, rather than light, but he enjoyed the life of the woods anytime.
The woods were deep, but not frightenly so. They let out maybe five blocks away, to more houses. Will, Jason, and Percys' house was kindof succluded, so they could practice their powers without harming the innocent. Will had a path through the woods, close to the houses on the other side, but not so that he was trespassing, then circling back.
Maybe about ten minutes away from the last house to pass, Will saw something alarming. In fact, he nearly stepped on it. Or, him.
"Oh, shit." Will choked.
