Confront (Rise of the Muses)

by 6crazygirls

Everyone has fears. Everyone has hopes. And everyone eventually dies. Liesel Kailyn is one with all three. And suddenly, her fears are coming alive, her hopes are vanishing, and it looks like she is about to die. She's not alone anymore, but can what she has save her?

1. Liesel Kailyn

Hi! This is my first story. I'm Kayla, by the way. As I post new chapters, I'll add characters, but for now, there's only Annabeth and Percy. Here is my story, beginning with a profile for my character.

---

My name is Liesel Kailyn. I am eternally twelve years old. My life is the craziest, worst life in the world ever.

A long time ago, Isis had a child with an Ares demigod, hence my occasional superior attitude and violent spirit. This child fell in love with Apollo, and they had a child, which is why I have a peculiar love for music and singing. Then they had a child with Hecate, and so I can do magic. Not much of it, but magic nonetheless. This demigod, who could barely be called a demigod, seeing as they were only 1/16 human, reduced the next child's fraction of human to 1/32 by falling in love with Aphrodite, hence my, though I hate it, obsession with the color pink, charmspeak, and French-speaking abilities from Aphrodite. Next in line was Athena, and so I have really awesome strategic abilities, a clear mind, and an odd interest in science, mathematics, and really long words, my favorite of which is pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanosis, which is a type of lung disease from silica dust. And so the line continued, with, lastly, my mother, the muse of dance, Terpsichore.

Since Terpsichore is the child of a Titan and a Titanness, I am 1/2 Titan blood. There is no better way to make people hate you. Annabeth was the only one who could see past that. Until Percy Jackson.

Percy Jackson. We could've been friends if he hadn't stolen Annabeth. All she ever wanted was a quest. And when stupid Percy Jackson had one, she couldn't wait to join him. Where did that leave me? Alone. Again.

So I blocked everything out. Everything. I cut myself off from the world, spending most time with my mother. Terpsichore and her sisters took me in. They helped me. They were the ones who first taught me the truth. The Olympians aren't all-powerful. The minor gods aren't weak. It's the other way around. The only thing the Olympians have powers for is lying. The only thing they are is powerful liars.

The Olympians didn't defeat the Titans. The minor gods defeated them. And defeated the giants. And many monsters. People think this can't be true because there would be people who would know the truth. People who would have witnessed the Olympians' deceit. Well, there aren't. Know why? Because the Olympians killed them all. Iris-Messages are lies too. Iris is held at knife-point and forced to create false images and voices. It's not real. And the only one who knows the truth is me. Me and the gods. So I gathered an army. An we've been training. We've been preparing. Until now. Now we're ready.

I have the blood of

Humans, 1/128

Ares, 1/128

Isis, 1/64

Apollo, 1/32

Hecate, 1/16

Aphrodite, 1/8

Athena, 1/4

Terpsichore, 1/2

And all their predecessors, 1

I am so much more powerful than I was ever supposed to be. And now, everything has changed. I am a leader of the Muses' Rebellion. I have found a use for my powers, which have only increased since Hecate joined us and started giving the leaders even more powers. I'm free, but there is still one thing.

I will never be free of my past.

And the past can change everything.
