Hiii. So this is my first Fanfiction. Uhh yeah. Since it's Summer I'll be updating almost every day but no promises.
Chapter 1 Reyna's POV
I ran through the town square while the cool summer breeze rushing past me. I knocked many people over in the proccess. And truely I felt bad about it but this was a life or death situation. I took a sharp turn into a dark lonely alley. 'Perfect', I thought. Suddenly the monster apeared. I took out my sword as I surveyed the monster. Ugghh, Manticore. This was supposed to be a vacation to get away from the chaos of greek/ roman monsters, to get away from the craziness of being praetor. Why does NYC have to invested with monsters and gods. So far I've encountered 1 drakon, 2 hydras, 23 telkhines, 3 flocks of harpies and 2 angry godesses. I was snapped out of my thoughts by the roar of the manticore. This is no time to feel sorry for myself. I am Roman. Romans don't- can't feel sorry about themselfs. I slashed my sword across its face. This just seemed to make it madder. It batted it leathery, bloodred wings. It's fangs lunged at my arm but a dodged out of the away. As I spun aroundI relized a man about my age cowering in the shadow. This momentarily dazed but his shout broke the trance.
"Look out"! I regained my train of thoughts and stabbed sword through the manticores back. The man stared at me.
"Sarah's right. I've gone mental", he muttered. I stared at him.
"Sarah"?
"My lil' sister", He said. Silence. "So, can you tell me whats going on, Please".
"I can't", I murmerd tearing my gaze away from his eyes.
"Please. My whole life I've seen things no one else can see. Horrifying things. Like in my 9nth grade high school orientation a cheerleader was killed by these two kids. Except she wasn't a cheerleader she was monster. And then the year after everyone in NYC just fell asleep except me. The whole city was going through a war- war. Monsters v.s. Regular Teens. Except they were'nt. They had powers. One kid could control water and another just started glowing while fighting like a maniac. People died. So many that I can't even walk through the city without remembering them…", he trailed off. I could see the desperatness in his eyes. He was close to tears. This man had seen the 2nd Titan war- the Greeks v.s. Titans. He should have been asleep too but he wasn't, just like Rachel. Maybe he was could too see through mist but really good like Rachel can.
"Lets get some coffee. It's on me", I said.
Time skip. At cafe.
While we sipped our coffee I told him all about the greeks and romans, the two recent wars everything he needed to know. I told him the same thing I tell new demigods. I expected his reaction to be like all the other new demigods: "OMG I cant believe so COOL!" But he didn't react that way. He just sat there thoughtfully. Finnally he replied.
"Take me to Camp Jupiter". I almost spit out my coffee.
"WHAT", I yelled.
"Take me with you. If me and Rachel were the only mortals awake through the war, well it must be a sign for me to go to one of the two camp", he said camly.. I pondered over this. It made sense.
"If you can get plane ticket to California on this flight then meet me at this cafe at 6:00 p.m., next Wednesday", I replied handing him a piece of paper with my flight on it. Then I swiftly threw out my coffee cup and made my way to the door. I paused right in front of the door and turned to the man.
"I never got your name", I said.
"James-James Davis", James said. "You?"
"Reyna"
