The Victory Child
Summary: My Name is Hagan Reeds. I'm 13 and from the beginning, my life's been ruff. Ever since I was 7 my imagination came true. This is the real story. The minor characters Percy never mentioned, the small people who made a huge difference.
Hagan's POV (Point of View)
Hi I'm Hagan, I am 7 years old since last month and I am about to enter my Karate Dojo where I will be given my brown belt.
The exterior of the building was white concrete. We walked in and Shihan began the ceremony.
I discarded my old purple belt and proudly dawned the fresh brown belt.
As my dad Steve Reeds drove me home he kept telling me how proud he was.
"I can't believe it," he says "my little boy with a brown belt? It's unbelievable."
"Dad stop," I replied, "you're embarrassing me."
"Oh come now, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, you mad a great accomplishment today. You should be proud to show it off to the world."
"I suppose," I answered. Truthfully I am proud to earn a brown belt at age 7.
Dad drove up the driveway. Just after he locked the front door behind be there was an earth-shattering roar. It sounded like gunfire and a lion combined.
I felt heat behind me and whirled around to see the wooden table catch fire. It fell in front of my dad closing him off away from me.
"Hagan" dad said, "Listen to me those Greek myths I tell you about at night, they're real!"
"Dad are you okay? That can't be true."
"Listen son, I'm telling the truth you are a demigod, your mom is Nike goddess of victory, and that"
He pointed out the window to a terrifying creature, "is a monster trying to kill you."
Immediately my mind started going a million miles an hour. This can't be happening to me, this doesn't happen to me. I looked at the monster; it looked like a huge lion with a snake tail.
My dad started to say something, "use this," he said pulling out a knife that looked like it was made of bronze. "It's made out of Celestial Bronze" I knew it, "a godly metal that will kill monsters. The name of the weapon is 'Victory's Bringer' use it to protect yourself."
"What do you mean dad? Aren't you coming with me?"
"Hagan," he said, " I won't make it."
"Yes you w-"
The door behind my dad shattered and the fire consumed him like a blanket on a baby. The monster appeared in front of me. It roared and I turned to run.
As I ran for the back door the ceiling in front of me caved in, I turned around just in time to duck a large yellow paw with razor sharp claws swiping at my head. It thrashed around destroying the house as it tried to reach me. I grabbed the knife and it parted to reveal a second one.
The fangs of the beast started to come at me; I dove under its head and stabbed one knife into its belly. The monster kicked me out from under it and pain flared in my right arm, I saw blood starting to stain my shirt.
As the monster turned around I closed my eyes waiting for the end; it never came. I opened my eyes golden dust scattered the floor three silver claws lay in the center of the pile.
I got up to examine the claws but the heat was too intense. So, I picked up the claws and my knives and ran out the door.
I started running to who knows where. As I did so everything that just happened went through my mind. I was a demigod-the son of Nike. A huge monster (and more probably will) tried to kill me. Using Celestial Bronze kills Greek monsters.
I realized that anywhere I go the other people won't be safe. I'll have to live on the go, surviving by my wits.
I smiled, "If I'm a demigod being hunted" I muttered to myself, "then those monsters won't know what hit em, I'll fight to the last breath to keep others and myself safe. For I am, the victory child!
A/N: There the first chapter of the first story is done! Just a reminder I am 12 years old so please go easy. Anyway I hope you like it, Review!
