This is a story I've been plotting since The Sword of Summer has come out. The setting and plot will be after Blood of Olympus but will only be featuring aspects of The Sword of Summer as well as Alex Fierro from Hammer of Thor, there will also be no Trials of Apollo stuff except Leo. Oh and, please no flame. Thank you very much and on with the first chapter. Be sure to R/R.
It all started with a phone call, Fredrick Chase was having dinner with his wife and two sons, Matthew and Bobby. It was interrupted by a ringing phone. Fredrick checked the caller id and saw it was his brother, Randolph Chase. He sighed and answered. "What do you want, now?" the blonde man frowned as he heard angry breaths on the other side of the phone. "Did you think I wouldn't find out? Did you think He wouldn't find out?" Randolph told the younger man. Now Fredrick was confused and asked, "What are you talking about Randolph?" "My dear little niece. I found out something very interesting about Annabeth." Fredrick Chase froze in his seat, staring straight ahead. He could hear muffled breathing, "Annabeth… what did you do to her? Answer me, Randolph!" He yelled back at the phone, he just chuckled and said, "Your daughter won't be harmed… much. That is, if you cooperate. I want my birthright, Fredrick, give it to me. Until you decide let's see how much pain she can endure. You have 48 hours to decide." The phone disconnected and Fredrick dropped it on the ground. It landed with a dull thud. "Fred, what's wrong?" his wife, Rebecca asked.
"Annabeth's been kidnapped, I need to go handle this. I want you and the boys on the road in an hour. I don't care where, just you have to leave." He told the three members of his family. Rebecca nods and ushers the boys upstairs to pack. She tells her husband, "Be careful, and go get our daughter back." He's shocked by the statement but smiles at his wife. Fredrick goes into his office and pulls out a worn duffel bag.
After about half an hour the boys and their mother pack the car and leave their father and husband behind. The aging blonde man sets off to Camp Jupiter. He's grateful he can see through the Mist but right now, he wished he had never heard of the gods, any of them. After arriving under the bridge that was the first entrance to the camp he slipped in and made it all the way to the Little Tiber without many problems. He was stopped by two sentries on duty. "Halt, who are you? What business do you have here?" A male sentry told him. "Please, I need to speak to your Praetors. It's very urgent. My daughter has been kidnapped." Fredrick told the Roman demigods. The older of the pair handcuffed him and brought him into the camp. The good and bad news for Fredrick Chase was that it was dinnertime for the legionaries. The younger boy left to fetch the Praetors. Fredrick was brought to the Principia, where the Praetors and cohort leaders can sleep. After 10 minutes the boy came back with five people in tow. The two in the front were the leaders of New Rome. Praetor Arellano and Praetor Zhang, followed by Legionnaire of the fifth cohort, Hazel Levesque: daughter of Pluto, Nico di Angelo, Ghost King: son of Hades as well as his boyfriend, Will Solace: Greek son of Apollo.
"What is going on? Who are you?" Reyna asked the man. Nico looked him up and down and said, "Mr. Chase? What are you doing here?" the four other demigods looked at Nico. "Chase, as in Annabeth Chase?" Frank asked. Fred nods, "Yes, that is correct, Mr. Zhang. Unfortunately this is not a social visit. I need your help to locate my daughter. She has been kidnapped." That was all he was able to get out before shouts started to ring in the air. "I swear if this is Juno again I don't know what I'll do to that goddess." Hazel muttered darkly. "No, this is not Juno, or Hera. This is something else, someone else. Mr. di Angelo, I need to get to Camp Half-Blood, preferably with all of you to explain the situation. I'm a bit uncertain about Iris Messaging." Fredrick looked to the son of Hades. He nods and grabs hold of his sister's hand.
The five demigods and mortal appear at Camp Half-Blood on the porch of the Big House. Percy Jackson, Jason Grace and Piper McLean were not expecting six people to shadow travel right then. "What are you guys doing here?" Percy asked, not noticing Annabeth's father. The Praetors parted to let him approach. "Hello again, Percy. I'm very sorry we had to meet again under such circumstances. Annabeth had been kidnapped." Percy was gaping at him, he glared up at the sky. "Hera… If you have started another war I will come up to Olympus and throw you into the pit if I have to. Bring Annabeth back!" the son of Poseidon shouted. Fredrick hugged the boy, "It was not Hera or Juno. It was someone else." Chiron motioned for all of the demigods to come into the Big House to talk in private.
"I'm guessing you know who captured your daughter, Mr. Chase." Chiron asked. Fred collapses on a chair and breaths in a hollow breath. "It was my brother, Randolph. He called me a few hours ago with an ultimatum. Give him his birthright or watch as Annabeth gets tortured and killed. He said that I have 48 hours to decide what I will do. I know he won't stop and the only thing I can do is give him what he wants but if I do the world will be in grave danger and the only ones powerful enough to stop him are Annabeth, Nico, and two other demigods not of this pantheon." The demigods in the war room were shocked at what Mr. Chase had just told them. "What do you mean by that, Mr. Chase?" Piper asked, lacing her words with charm speak. He shook his head and told the Aphrodite counselor, "No! Don't you dare use that power against me! I know it's not the same but, don't attempt to coerce me with words. Before I continue my story I need two more demigods here." Piper and the rest were staring at the man as he pulled out a phone and dialed a number.
They all watched in baited breath as the line rang. "Who is this and how did you get this number?" said a stern voice on the other end. "Magnus, I need your help. Annabeth's been taken." The boy, Magnus, growled and told Fred that he and another demigod will be there in a few minutes.
After the allotted time, magic could be felt throughout the room as a portal opened up and out came a blonde boy and a pink and green haired girl, about 16 years old. The blonde hugged his uncle. "Hi, Uncle Fredrick. What's going on? Who took Annie?" he looked around the room and saw other demigods surrounding him and the girl. "Oh, right, introductions. But first, Alex, if you please." He waited as Alex put up a barrier. "No one will be able to listen in, not even the gods." She told him, he nods and continues. "I'm Magnus Chase and this is Alex Fierro." "Another Chase? How many are you?" Percy exclaimed. "Listen here, boy, you better watch yourself. Don't go insulting family lines. Especially ones as powerful and ancient as them." Alex told Percy.
Magnus stopped her from doing anything to the son of Poseidon. "Calm down, he didn't know. I don't think any of these demigods know." Magus looked at each Greek and roman demigod until his eyes landed on Fredrick.
"Tell us what happened to Annabeth." Magnus doesn't look away from his Uncle as he explains. "Randolph contacted me telling me he wants his birthright, and that he found out about Annabeth. He knows she's a daughter of Athena but he also found out about what she means to our clan and her connection with Loki. I'm sure you remember that night when Natalie, Randolph and I were arguing. We were speaking of our Clan." Magnus and Alex starred at Fredrick and asked slowly, "What connection does Annabeth have with Loki?" Magnus was shaking with rage and Alex made sure to stop him from pouncing on his uncle and demanding answers at sword point. "Annabeth is not only a daughter of Athena but a legacy of Loki." "WHAT?!" Magnus screamed. "Loki has never had a legacy and how has the All-Father not killed this girl yet?" Alex asked. "Because she hasn't unlocked the abilities she gained from him. The reason she is a legacy and not his child is because when Annabeth was a baby there was a huge storm that was sweeping through Boston. It was the storm that killed Caroline, Emma and Aubrey. That night I found out it wasn't accidental, Loki killed them and then transferred the fear, anger and sorrow they were feeling into Annabeth, but also he gave her some of his powers."
Alex and Magnus froze when they heard that but the other demigods couldn't believe what they were hearing. Annabeth had been hiding something this big from them for who knows how long. "How long has Annabeth known about this?" Percy asks. "She doesn't. Not entirely that is. She only knows that something bad happened that night on Thanksgiving that drifted the three of us apart. I didn't have the heart to tell her the truth, she was too young. Then she ran away and I feared for her life. I was afraid that the All-Father, Loki or his children might find her and kill her. I was glad that she came to me for help during the Titan War. I need my girl back, I don't know what I'll do if Randolph or Loki kills her." Fredrick finished his story and started sobbing. Piper, Will and Rachel all comforted the middle-aged man.
After sometime in silence Alex asks, "You said he called you? Let's call him back with an answer." He handed the pink and green haired teen the phone waited as it connected with his brother. However it wasn't Randolph who answered. "Loki speaking." The god of deception answered in a cheerful voice. The room was frozen once more but Magnus took the phone from Alex's hand and said in a low tone. "What did you do to Annabeth?" "Ah, Magnus my boy! So nice to hear from you again. I will say, my daughter is very resilient, but even has strong willed as she is she couldn't keep it up." "What did you do to her?!" the son of Frey shouted. "Nothing much," they could hear shuffling in the background. Muffled cries were coming through the phone but also tiny whimpers of pain. "Sweet Annabeth, must you hide? This game is getting tiresome." There was a scream and then silence. "Annabeth is not your daughter. She will never be your child! What did you do to her? ANSWER ME!" "Not to worry, she is just tired from our games. I assume you have chosen not to help me." He said it as a statement. Then the line went dead.
"We need a plan to get Annabeth back and to stop my Mother." Alex told the group. They nod but are all too exhausted for the day so they just retreated to their cabins, while Fredrick, Alex and Magnus were given rooms in the Big House.
Please be sure to leave feedback, I'd love it. As I said at the top, please no flame, just give this a chance. Thanks and have a good day.
