The Great Demigod Heist By ZombifiedZebulon
Derrick woke up with a bed In his apartment complex squeaked under his weight. Not that he was fat or anything, the bed was old and could possibly collapse at any moment.
Derrick jumped up, sighing, then put on his clothes. He looked at himself in the mirror. In shape, he looked good, at least to himself. His abs were built well; the fights at school kept them he was, thinking about it again. The main reason his Mom cries at night.
His ADHD had always drove him to fight. Somebody always said something, they always recent one had landed him here, all alone in some recreational school in Long Island, NY. He lived in the city before.
Derrick stepped out the door, prepared to deal with some "mentors" or some "fellow peers". But, was wrong. It never unguarded, unlocked, never alone. Then why was he here now?Derrick peeked the corner but no-one was here...
BOOOOM!
Derrick yelped and backed up by the sudden... Was that an explosion?He slowly walked the silent halls.
Suddenly, as he was walking near the courtyard, the wall collapsed. In came crashing a kid sat on the horse, covered with blood and... Golden dust?
"Damn anemoi!" The boy had bright blue hair and a crooked nose."Hey, kid," he said, pointing at Derrick. "Run?"
Suddenly, the horse lifted into the air, surprising Derrick.
"Wha-?!" Derrick said, lost for words.
The boy looked surprised. "You can see the horse?"
Derrick mumbled something like- "uh... Yeah."
Then, the boy laughed. "Another Demigod! Hop on, come on!"
"The horse?!"
"Yes, jump on! He doesnt bite!"
"Are you insane-?!"
BONK!
The boy threw a nearby rock at him, hitting him on his head.
"Ow!" Derrick whined. "What was that for?!"
"This.. Is the worst rescue mission... EVER. Get on the horse or Ill feed you to the anemoi!"
As scary as that didnt sound, Derrick climbed on the horse.
. The horse had wings, he realized. A... A... A pegasus? As in the baby of that chick Medusa? Derrick remembered a project he had to do at school.
Derrick just stared in wonder at the flying horse as they flew over St. Eldas Correctional Facility.A battleground, Derrick large bats swarmed a whole bunch of people in clad armor, all swinging swords. They seem to be trying to dodge them, drive them off, not kill. Derrick then saw the main attraction. It was a giant, with a single eye in the middle of its forehead. About 5-6 July warriors surrounded it, trying to kill it, trip it, something. It stomped one out, but surprisingly he got back suddenly they flew off in the air, leaving the violence behind.
"Where are we going?" Derrick asked from the behind.
"Camp Half Blood" The boy said, like Derrick knew what THAT was.
"Okay, how about this. Whats going on?"
"A lot of death, my friend, a lot of death"
