Sukaro and the Olympians: Fall of Olympus

Chapter 1 : The New Kid on the Block

Aw come on! Why do I always have to do the dirty work? Huh? You really think I wanna go get that thing? A beastly voice said.

We drew straws! Stop complaining. When you feast on half bloods skulls to your hearts delight you'll be happy you went down there .Now get going you idiot! A voice said that pierced the ears like a thousand knives.

No gratitude in this…

Then I woke up. I'd been having these crazy vivid dreams for the past two months but I never made anything of them. Must be that week old pizza I ate before bed. Oh well.

" Sukaro! The bus is here! Your late!" my mom shouted from the kitchen.

" What else is new?" I yelled back. I jumped up put on my clothes , slipped on my lucky hemp necklace ( it had a frog pendant. I've had it since I was a baby.) I ran into the kitchen and grabbed the bacon on the stove for me. " Love you ma!" Then I ran out after my bus. Like always when I caught up, the bus driver stopped and let me in.

" Damn it kid! When are you going to be on time? Hope your not late for the boat when you die kiddo!" My bus driver, Mr. Sparks shouted.

" Your way to into that Greek mythology crap man! Their all just myths!" I yelled laughing and going to the back of the bus. Lightning boomed over head.

" Just myths huh?" my best friend Joey said.

" Ah shut up. What's good?" I said and we did our secret hand shake.

" Nothing much. Hey did you see that new hot chick at the front?" Joey asked.

I looked to the front. There was a girl sitting in the front. Through the " bus driver mirror thingie" I could see her face. Spiky black hair , a few freckles , and green eyes. She was hot , but I never admit how pretty a girl is.

" She's alright. Not my type." I said.

" Pfft. Yeah right. That's what you said about Jasmine too." Joey said snickering.

" I told you never to mention that!" I said laughing and threw a piece of bacon at him.

Soon we got to school. Harden Valley Academy. It was a pretty big school. Pretty much your typical high school. So after a bunch of goofing off and causing trouble I went to first period. English. My worst subject because of my dyslexia. Also as usual , Mrs. Mamba came down hard on me. The weird thing was she reminded me of a snake.

" You don't try hard enough boy! Read that sentence." She screamed.

The sentence jumped all over the page something about a dog drinking water. But because she was irritating me I said, " Mrs. Mamba is a stuck up , no good , bitch."

The entire class laughed , even the new chick. " You screwed up big time boy. Come with me." Mrs. Mamba said and pulled me out of the class room. The pulled me along and I realized she had a pretty tight grip. Then she slung me into the girls bathroom.

" Whoa! You're a pretty lady , in your own old respect… but no!" I yelled.

" Oh don't flatter yourself half-blood." She said.

Half-blood? What the hell is that? That's what the guy in my dream said… The she pulled off her wig. Snakes came out for hair. Oh… No. This couldn't be happening . She reached for her eye and pulled out a contact lens. If this was for real then it was a bad idea to look her in the eye. I ducked around her and tried to run out the door but it was sealed shut some how. I closed my eyes and prayed.

" Don't resist me. Look and me. Or would you rather me tear you apart with my bear hands?" She asked.

" God , I'm to young to die… I have midterms!" I mumbled.

" oh please you and your corny jokes. DIE YOU -" she stopped. I didn't dare look. Then I felt dust fly all over me.

" You can open your eyes kid." A girl said.

I opened them and said, " Its not what it looks like. You probably wont believe me but she—"

" Was a monster. Medusa. Good thing you didn't look at her otherwise you would have been boned." She said.

" Well… thanks for saving me. What the hell is going on?" I asked.

" Hades. Hell doesn't really exist I guess. See you're a half-blood. Half human half God. One of your parents is a God or Goddess. You give off a smell and monsters are attracted to you."

I sniffed myself.

" You can't smell it. See all the Greek mythology stuff is real. All of the Olympians and the Titans and monsters." She finished.

" SWEET! I'm half god which means I can turn people into rats and stuff right? Because I have a few people in mind—" I started.

" Not like that idiot. You know I knew you were a dummy the first time I laid eyes on you." She said putting her hands on her hips.

I imitated her and said, " Well what are you doing here anyway?"

" To take you to Camp Half-Blood the only place where your safe. I—" she started.

The Joey bust through the door and shouted , " THALIA DID I MISS THE ACTION? WHERES THE MONSTER LEMME AT EM'!"

" Joey will you shut up? Someone's going to hear you." Thalia said.

" Wait. Joey's in on this too?" I asked.

" I'm a half blood too. Joey Cannabis, son of Ares!" He said.

" I can't believe you gave yourself just a stupid last name." Thalia said and rolled her eyes.

" Well , what the hell are you?" I asked Thalia.

" I'd have a more respectful tone kiddo, Thalia Grace, daughter of Zeus and Hunter for Artemis." She said with a proud look on her face.

" Super cool story bro. Now where is this camp? Cuz' I have to be home around six and—OUCH!" I scream, it felt like someone struck my with a bolt of …. Lightning.

" Want some more punk?" She yelled.

" Oh your asking for it." I ran at her. I swung and she ducked punching me in the gut. The I grabbed her in a pile-drive motion but flipped me with her legs. She jumped on top of me and got ready to punch when she slipped on some of the glitter left behind by Medusa. She landed right on top of me. And I mean on top of me. Our lips kind of touched and…

" Haha dude! Nice!" Joey laughed.

" You pervert!" Thalia yelled and jumped up. I couldn't tell whose face was redder hers or mine.

" Pervert? You're the one that jumped on top of me and –" I started then Joey said, " Um , We should get out of here… I think I hear a Hellhound."

" Crud!" Thalia yelled. She tapped her bracelet and it became a shield. It had Medusa face on it, I knew from the stories it was Aegis. Joey tapped his chest three times and some hardcore red armor formed where his clothes were.

" Is it cool or what? A gift from my dad last year!" He said.

" He can marvel your suit later lets hit the rode! Blackjack and his friends are waiting for us!" Thalia yelled.

We raced down the hallway. It the background I hear one of the scariest things I've heard, ever , RAAAWWWWWWRRR! It sounded like if a dragon and a dog fused and had a thousand dead souls screaming with them. We burst outside and headed toward the football field.

" Dumb kid! I knew you were a half blood I could smell it on you and your friend from a mile away! Get over here!" my bus driver screamed.

This might not have bothered me but he was riding a giant German Sheppard. I'm just going to assume that was a Hellhound.

" GET EM' CUPCAKE!" Sparks shouted.

" Cupcake? Are you serious?" I yelled.

" Shut up and run Sukaro!" Thalia screamed. It was no use though the dog leaped over us and got in front of us. It swung it's paw at Thalia and knocked Aegis away and her to the ground. Joey ran to help but Sparks shot a bolt of black lightning at him sending him flying. Guess he didn't get his name for nothing. The dog swung it's paw once more at Thalia. This time she'd be torn to shreds.

" NO!" I yelled and stuck my hand out. Then the weirdest thing happened. It was like everything went into slow motion like the Matrix. But I was still moving at a normal pace. I didn't know how long it would last so I ran and pick Thalia up and grabbed Joey . I pulled them both into the football field. The everything went back to normal.

" What in Hades? How did we get over here? AND WHY ARE YOU TOUCHING ME?" Thalia yelled.

" Your welcome for saving you." I said.

" Dude! Your dragging me!" Joey yelled. I let go and he got up and ran. I let Thalia down and we made it toward the center of the field where three horses with wings were waiting. We made it to the horses and each of us jumped on one.

" Fly Blackjack! Back to camp! Unless you want to be Hellhound chow!" Thalia said. The we all took off into the air.

" What the hell—Hades I mean. " I yelled.

" Haha I can't hear a word your saying buddy!" Joey yelled laughing.

We flew for about an hour. They told me we were headed for Long Island which isn't far from Tennessee. We landed next to tree and I saw a sign that said , Welcome to Camp Half-Blood!

" Wait what about my mom?" I asked.

" No worries. She knows about half bloods and stuff. Last time I spent the night I told her we might have to take you." Joey said proudly.

We entered the camp. There were awesome fields , people with goat legs hopping around, things that I guess were tree nymphs , a mess hall , and all the things a normal camp would have. Then I noticed the weird thing. There were big cabins. Each unique in its own way.

" What is that?" I said pointing at the cabins.

" Thos are the cabins dedicated to each god. Their children live in them. I belong in the Ares cabin." Joey said and pointed to a cabin decorated with war items and was blood red. There were a couple of kids sitting at the steps with scowls on their faces.

"So where do I go?" I asked.

" Well, after what Percy Jackson did , you should be claimed by your parent by tomorrow." Joey said.

" Who's Percy Jackson?" I asked.

" Only like , the greatest half-blood who ever lived! He's my role model. He lead the half bloods and hunters 30 years ago to wage war on Kronos. Kronos is the Titan Lord and Lord of Time. He made a comeback and tried to take Manhattan and destroy Olympus. But Percy totally kicked his ass!" Joey said all happy like.

" Wait… Olympus is in New York?" I asked. I was totally confused.

" The Gods move with Western Civilization. Olympus is in New York , Hades is in Hollywood."

" Figures." I said. I realized it was already dark and I was pretty hungry. Then a horn went off.

" Dinner time. Sorry but your gonna have to sit at the "Undecided" table tonight. There will be a few other people there but you all will get claimed so you'll get to meet your brothers and sisters."

" Um… ok." I said and we walked to the mess hall.

Joey went to sit at the Ares table. And like he said I sat at a blank white table. There were some other younger and nervous looking kids sitting there too.

" Sup , kid." I said to one.

" Hi.." he said.

" You got a name? " I asked. I took a sip from my goblet which became any drink I wanted. Totally cool.

" Andrew. You?" Andrew asked.

" Sukaro. This some weird stuff. I got attack by Medusa today. Turns out she was my English teacher the whole time." I said kind of chuckling to myself.

" I got attacked by a giant. But one of my inventions shot him in the eye with a pencil and some other boy took me here." Andrew held up a mini catapult.

" Nice." I said. Then there was beating on a table. I turned to see a man. Well , half a man. I'm guessing he was a centaur. Correct me if I'm wrong.

" Welcome new half-bloods! I'm hoping you have had a great first day here! I'm Chiron the Camp Director. In a few minutes the Gods should start claiming you. We—" He didn't finish because the room became dark. I have to admit I was pretty excited. My dad died when before I was born and I wanted to know who he was.

Coming from the far left of the table it started. The first kid got a chariot over his head. Athena

The second girl ( who was pretty hot.) got a heart over hers. Aphrodite.

The next kid got a shoe with wings on it over his. Hermes. ( doing pretty good with the god names aren't I?)

Andrew got a chariot over his head too. Figures.

Then everyone looked at me. Nothing happened. So I though maybe I had to think about my dad. So I thought really hard. Nothing happened. There were a few gasp and even more " Wtfs".

" Um… well—" again Chiron was cut off by a bunch of rays of lights. Next thing you know standing in front of us were what I figured the Olympians. That would have been freaking awesome but they were all starring at me like I was the spawn of the devil.

" Who's offspring is this?" One yelled. He had a white beard and a white pinstriped suit. Zeus maybe?

" Don't look at me." A guy with runners clothes said. He had shoes with wings on them so I assumed he was Hermes. " My sons right there."

" He's so cute! Unfortunately he's not mine but his mother must have been hot." A really pretty woman said. When I say pretty, I mean completely and totally sexy. I really hope I wasn't drooling. Aphrodite?

" Hah. Look at that stupid face. He looks like a total fool. He's not mine anyway." A good looking but stern woman said. Athena probably. She struck as a bitch but I'd never say that to her face.

" Not mine , haven't had a child since Percy." A man who reminded me as a surfer said. Poseidon. Percy Jackson was Poseidon's son? He must have been pretty cool.

" Wasn't me." A man with black hair and a black cloak said. Hades?

" He's not hard enough to be mine." A man in a biker outfit said. I got angry looking at him. Must have been Ares. I'm glad I didn't get pissed when I looked at Joey.

" Then who's is it?" Zeus asked.

All the Olympians shrugged.

" Come on guys! I swore on the River Styx!" Zeus said.

" Haha!" I laughed. I didn't mean to but it slipped out. I cowered sheepishly when they all looked at me.

" What's so funny BOY?" Zeus asked. His voice boomed like thunder.

" Nothing…" I mumbled.

" Well if he's not a half blood its only safe if I blow him to bits." Zeus said. He raised his hand and lighting appeared in it.

" ZEUS WAIT!" Joey shouted. " He's like my best friend and I'm sure he's a half blood. He's got dyslexia and ADHD like the rest of us."

" Ares your son is brave. But this boy is a goner." Zeus turned back to me.

" !" a woman screamed busting in the door. " That kid is part of the Great Prophecy! Don't freaking do it!"

" The Oracle of Delphi , here? And how do you know of this?" Zeus asked.

" The dreams man. The dreams." The woman said. She had red hair and was really pretty. She walked up to me and put her hand out.

" I'm Rachel Dare , the Oracle of Delphi. How do you do?" Rachel asked. I looked over at Zeus and mumbled, " uh…"

" Common response from someone who almost got vaporized. Come with me lets talk." Rachel said. I followed her outside and that's where my adventure began….
