Author Note: Hi everyone! This is a story I had written down when I was nine, and though you guys might enjoy it. (Don't worry I added stuff and edited) Please REVIEW! REVIEW! REVIEW! REVIEW!
Disclaimer: I don't own Percy Jackson or the Greek myths, just my characters.
And I give you (drum roll) the Prologue! :)
Prologue
"Dad?" Kat whispered.
"It's you're twelfth birthday, December 8, you know I can't keep you forever." Kate's dad whispered. "I've hidden you in my palace for two years, Zeus can't find you here, but it is time for you to go out into the world. Find Grover Underwood, the satyr, Grover will keep you safe."
"Percy's friend?" Kat stared into her father's sea green eyes, they matched her own. Her wavy strawberry blond hair was braided loosely down her back.
"Yes," Kat's father said calmly, "and remember don't let anyone know that you are my daughter, I will claim you myself later."
"When?" Kat looked up at her father. He chuckled, he still wasn't used to how she treated him like a person, not a greek god. She wasn't afraid to demand, ask, hug, or challenge him to friendly duel. And he had to agree, she was getting better with her sword, she was getting to the point where he had to use his godly powers to win. But now it was time for him to let her go, let her make friends at Camp Half-Blood, meet her siblings, and to train with demigods.
"When?" Kat repeated.
"Oh, in a few weeks." He replied casually.
"A few weeks!" Kat looked up at him sternly, "sooner!"
"Nope, my little bold one," he tapped her on the nose, "remember you're acting. Bye."
"Bye daddy!" Kat smiled, then walked into the forest.
And now (pause for effect) what you've all been waiting for. . . Chapter 1! :)
Chapter 1 An extra demigod
Percy and Thalia were crouched on the ground prepared to die, the manticore shot another needle at him, and a silver arrow intercepted it in mid air,
"What the?" Percy wondered. Thalia groaned,
"No, not them!"
The Dr. Thorn suddenly was pushed off the cliff, and Percy saw Annabeth falling with him.
"Annabeth!" Percy yelled. "No!"
Thalia jumped up and ran to the edge,
"She's gone Percy, we'll find her, I promise," Thalia's voice shook.
"Well, well, it's great to help out an old friend, Thalia Grace." A clear voice rang out.
"Hello, Zoe Nightshade," Thalia said coldly, her face was oddly locked in a cold stare at the young teenage girl. Percy brushed the snow off his jeans and spoke,
"I'm Perc-"
"I know who you are, male," Zoe said rudely, "come, Lady Artemis has asked you to come to her camp.
"Well," Percy said, looking at Bianca and Nico, "follow us."
Percy watched Grover and Nicole get along so well together, he still couldn't believe Bianca had become a Hunter, and just like that, they had lost a demigod. And to a bunch of girls, who called themselves the hunters of Artemis. Percy heard a shout, then a cry, and then Phoebe entered, holding a girl, Percy thought it was Annabeth for a second, then realized the girl was eleven.
"Let go of me," the girl cried, "just because you're a Hunter of Artemis and all that,doesn't mean you can kidnap innocent girls." The girl wrenched her arm away and tried to punch Phoebe, but the Hunter just held on to her tighter.
"Yeah, well you were snooping around our camp, trespasser, so I actually have a right," Phoebe retorted.
"Well this isn't your property," the girl with strawberry blond hair snapped, breaking free of the Hunter and stood there for a second wondering what to do. Then she asked, "what's a Hunter of Artemis?"
Phoebe laughed, and Thalia ran over and whispered something in the hunter's ear.
"Right, we could ask my lady?"
"No," Thalia said grimly, Grover came over, "Grover can figure it out for us, before we tell her anything."
"What's your name?" Grover asked kindly.
"Katrina, but please call me Kat," the girl said, she didn't seem surprised at all that he had goat legs.
"Okay, Kat," Grover asked, "could you tell me about your parents." Suddenly something flickered through Kat's sea green eyes, sadness.
"My mother was Erin Bowes, she was a carpenter, but she died when I was," Kat paused, "eight."
"I'm so sorry to hear that," Grover said sincerely, "and your father?"
Kat paused thinking, then said "never saw him."
"You never knew him at all? No stories? Visits? Letters? Pictures?"
Kat winced, "nope."
"Really?!" Grover actually sounded surprised now, then sympathetic. Kat glared, and her green eyes flashed,
"Now don't act so surprised! Many children don't grow up with fathers or mothers, plenty of children have sob stories to tell. And I'm not the only one!" Kate's hands were on her hips, and she stared daggers at Grover. Percy stood up and grinned, Kat reminded him of Annabeth, a lot.
"Percy, we happened upon another one!" Grover said shocked.
Kat rolled her eyes. Percy grinned,
"Really?"
"Yes, Percy, she's demigod."
"What parent?"
"Athena maybe?"
"You guys understand I'm right here?" Kat asked, she snickered.
"Sorry," Grover and Percy said in unison. Kat rolled her eyes,
"Explain."
Kat was laughing so hard now, Percy thought she'd explode, Nico was asking him so many questions, and many private ones, that Percy had a hard time answering them.
"Go, play with Grover now," Kat urged Nico, seeing the exasperation on Percy's face, "Percy's tired." Nico ran off and Kat chuckled softly, "you're the son of Poseidon right?"
Percy nodded.
"And you control the water, earthquakes, talk to horses, animals under the sea, you have a brother that's a Cyclops, right?"
Percy nodded, "wait, how did you know?"
"Just a guess," Kat said hastily, "can you control getting wet and dry?"
"Yes," Percy nodded.
"Breath underwater?"
Percy nodded.
"Create air bubbles?"
"Yup."
"Cool." Kat stared off into the distance toward the water.
"Any ideas who your godly parent is?" Percy asked.
"No."
"You said that way to fast."
"Okay, maybe."
"Let's go down the line of gods, Zeus?"
"Definitely not, rule out the big three." Kat said.
Percy raised his eyebrows, "Grover told me you are a powerful demigod."
"Not that powerful," Kat said, still gazing at the ocean wistfully.
"Okay, Aphrodite, Hephestus, and Ares."
Kat shuddered, "murder Ares off that list."
Percy laughed, "what's wrong with Ares?"
"That god needs to be destroyed," Kat muttered.
"I like your thoughts," Percy said.
"Not Aphrodite, romance, blah. I don't know about Hephestus though, I love building random things."
"Okay," Percy said, "Apollo, Athena, and, we'll rule Artemis out."
"Definitely not Apollo, I suck at poems and singing."
"Maybe Athena?"
"Yup."
"Okay, Hera, thank goodness no, Hermes, and Dionysus."
"I hate grapes, they don't taste good, I hate crowds or parties, and definitely not Hermes, I'm afraid of heights, and those winged shoes make me shudder."
"Okay. That narrows it down to two gods, Hephestus, and Athena."
"No idea." Kat rolled her eyes, "I'll just wait until he claims me."
"Really?" Percy gasped, "I would have wanted to know until right away, but I had two weeks."
"Oh!" Kat said, trying to disguise it as a cough. Percy looked at her strange,
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I just need some water." Kat coughed again, then hastily retreated.
Percy stared at her as she ran away, "I wonder who her parent is," he muttered to himself.
Hope you enjoyed it! Please REVIEW! Thanks for reading! :)
