The Demi-god Games
A/N This story does not link to the storyline of The Heroes of Olympus. Also I used a lot of random names when I couldn't think of some.
I re-wrote this first chapter to improve it.
Chapter 1
The Summoning
Scott lay in his crowded cabin surrounded by Hermes kids. Hermes always had the most kids but most of them still weren't even his kids even after Percy made the Gods claim all their kids. In the Distance he heard the horn blow. He thought this was an unusual time be summoned. Scott pondered on this for a second and then joined his cabin mates as they were walking to the campfire. As he was walking he saw Percy and Annabeth walking together holding hands. He thought Percy was so lucky to have her. They gathered around the campfire and Mr. D was waiting for them.
"I am sorry to say this but due to Harry Johansson-" Mr. D started.
"Percy Jackson" Percy interrupted.
"-Whatever. With the promise that we would claim all our children the gods now have too many children and we need to get rid of some."
"Hey! Why is it our fault if you… have intimate scenes with mortals too much and have lots of kids, mean that it's our fault!" Clarisse shouted out. Clarisse is one of those people who you don't want to get on the bad side off. Luckily Scott wasn't one of those people. In fact, Scott was one of the only people who agreed with this. Hermes being the God of Travellers and all means he gets around a bit and has lots of affairs with mortals. Scott was just slumped at the back accepted the news and taking it in. While the other campers were up in Dionysius' face and getting turned into grape vines and Wine bottles, Scott was sitting wondering who was going to be picked in his cabin. Could it have been James or Connor or, hopefully not, Maria. He was really good friends with Maria since he first arrived at Camp Half-Blood. He really couldn't kill her if it came to it.
"QUIET!" Mr. D shouted. "You are dismissed. I will see you tomorrow when I will anounce the tributes." Some people still tried to argue but Mr. D just poofed into a purple mist and let the campers confused and they just walked away. Scott walked back to his simple cabin and slumped in his bed. Before he went to sleep he said a quiet prayer to his father and then went to sleep.
When Scott woke up he was restless and aggitated. All night he was thinking about the games and he assumed that everyone else would be aswell. He got up and went to the tent were they served breakfast and joined his other campers. There was a big discussion at his table and some of the older kids were like 'Yeah! I can't wait to kill some other campers and prove myself to Hermes!' Then someone reminded him about the Ares kids and that he would get owned easiely and he quickly backed down and regretted what he said. Lots of kids were then saying that he was jnxed and he would obviousy be picked.
We all gathered at the campfire to see Chiron standing there. Mr. D had disappeared (probably so he didn't get harassed by lots of Ares kids again!) Also lots of kids appreciated Chiron and they wouldn't argue with what he said. "Listen up Children.
Zeus: Thalia Grace and Jason Grace
Poseidon: Percy Jackson and Tyson
Hades: Nico Di Angelo and Hazel Levesque
Hephaestus: Leo Valdez and Nyssa
Hermes: Scott Weaver and Maria Stoll
Scotts heart stopped. He couldn't believe what he just heard. Hermes. His father. Sending him to his certain death. Scott couldn't fight. He could Lockpick and steal stuff really good, But fighting. And Maria. Hermes knew he was good friends with her. Maybe he thought someone was going on between them. You're allowed relationships with people in other cabins but not you're own. Scott knew this, and yet his Dad still sent him and her. From this point on... Hermes was no father of his.
