Percy's POV
I was spending a day at home, helping me and Paul help clean the house. You must be thinking, Percy Jackson the saviour of Olympus and the hero that defeated Gaia cleaning? Well yes I am. But today was special since an old friend of mine was coming over to our house to stay for a few days. Her name was Audrey, and was 14 years old. Her parents sent her to our house while they went on business while her brothers were in university in another country.
" Percy! Can you help me clean the guest room?" yelled my mom as she was cleaning the kitchen.
" OKAY!" I yelled after cleaning my room. Yes I finally cleaned my room. I went into the guest room and opened the window. I started lining the bed sheet, and fluffed the pillow. The guest room just had a bedroom drawers, a table and a chair, a closet, and a bed. Deciding it was clean, the house looked good. I heard the oven ding, and the cookies were started to be taken out of the oven. My mouth watered. Soon the door bell rung.
" Percy get the door!" my mom said as she began to walk to the door. I opened the door, and there stood Audrey.
" Hey Percy! How you've been?" smiled Audrey cheerfully.
" Pretty good. How about you?" as she began to walk in to our home.
" Eh, same old. Hi Sally!" said Audrey as she hugged my mom who offered her a hug.
" Hi Audrey. You've grown!" smiled my mom, as she looked at Audrey.
" About time I did. I do not want to be mistaken as a 5 grader." Laughed Audrey, we laughed all together. As we went to the kitchen, she gave Audrey some cookies.
"Thank you very much." Said Audrey as she nibbled her cookie like a hamster. My mom giggled at her eating habit.
" Hi, so you must be Audrey. My name is Paul." Introduced Paul as he shook Audrey's hand. Audrey shook the cookie crumbs off on a napkin and stood up to shake Paul's hand.
" Hi it's nice to meet you." Said Audrey as she began to shake his hand.
As we resumed eating the cookies, I heard a whisper. "Percy!" I looked around and saw an Iris message of Chiron. I looked at him and looked at Audrey. I looked at my mom and gave her the signal ' camp half-blood' look. She nodded and turned to Audrey.
" Why don't you take your stuff to your room?" said my mom kindly. She looked up and nodded. She began taking her luggage to her room and disappeared.
" Hey Chiron. How are you?" I said in front of the Iris message.
" Pretty good Percy. I have a favour to ask you." Oh no when it's a favour it's usually taking care of hell hounds or somethin.
" I need to take care of some hell hounds around where you are. Annabeth is already going there as we speak." I nodded. The Iris message blinked out and I looked at my mom. We've been through this scenario many times so my mom smiled and nodded for me to go. I looked at Paul and nodded. I grabbed my pen Riptide and ran out of the house.
" Percy!" I looked at the voice and found my girlfriend Annabeth standing there. I smiled and hugged her.
" How've you been wise girl?" I said as I kissed her cheek.
" Pretty good seaweed brain." Said Annabeth as she kissed me. As we all ran to the area, it was in the park where the hell hounds were. True enough there was 6 hell hounds. We quiet snuck up at them, until the hell hounds caught our scent and turned to look at us. Oh shoot.
They growled and launched at us. I clicked my pen which turned into a deadly bronze sword and sliced the first hellhound. Annabeth began fighting on of the hellhounds dodging the other hell hounds. I turned and sliced, and we both fought in unison. After a couple of minutes, we had destroyed the hellhounds.
" I see our job here is done." I said looking at Annabeth, but she was still on guard.
" No we aren't. We killed 5, where's the sixth?" Suddenly a growl was heard and the hellhound launched at us, knocking our weapons out of hands. The hellhound began to charge at us and wrapped myself around Annabeth. I braced for the pain but then I heard a yell.
" Hey! Hellhound! Stop picking on my friend!" I looked and saw the hellhound look at the person.
Me and Annabeth looked at the person and it was Audrey.
" Audrey! MOVE!" she looked at me and gave me a look. Go-get-your-weapon-while-I-try-to-distract-it-and-get-your-friend-out-to-safety look.I nodded and looked at Annabeth, who looked at me. She nodded and we slowly began to retrieve our weapons.
The hellhound was about to attack us until Audrey managed to attack it. The hellhound backed up and growled at Audrey.
" έρθει και να μου πάρουν!" ( Come and get me!) I looked at Audrey as she just said Ancient greek. The hellhound charged, and she bended her knee. She kicked the hellhound in the chest which started to fall back and she reached in her back, and pulled out a bronze dagger? She stomped the hellhound and stabbed the hellhound, killing the hellhound. She stood back up and took a breath in.
We looked at her in wide shock. " Percy, why are you acting like a fish? You do know I can take care of myself." said Audrey. I shook out of my shock and then Annabeth spoke up.
" Um...Hi. My name is Annabeth Chase. Who are you?" introduced Annabeth as she put away her dagger.
Audrey straighted her clothes and looked at Annabeth. She held out her hand which Annabeth took. " Nice to meet ya Annabeth, my name is Audrey."
" Uh Percy can we go back? The aura is kinda freaking me out." said Audrey as she rubbed her arms. I nodded and all three of us went back to my home.
Annabeth's POV
After fightning the hellhounds, I thought we were gonna die by that hellhound. Until Audrey had distracted that hellhound. It was amazing how she managed to kill that hellhound. As we began walking back to Percy's house, I grabbed Percy's hand. Audrey rose an eyebrow, and went ahead. She looked at me and winked. She mouthed ' I'll give you your space.' while I blushed while I mouthed a thank you. She stared at Percy and gave a look. Percy smiled and grinned. Audrey turned her back at us and started to skip like a school girl. When we reached Percy door, we stepped in.
" Oh my godness! You guys are alright." said Sally. I gave her a smile and a hug. " It's so nice to see you Annabeth."
" Thanks Sally. It's nice to see you again."
" Um Sally? do you by chance have a band-aid?" said Audrey. When we turned to Audrey, there was a scratch was bleeding on her arm.
Sally saw this and went to find a band-aid. I started to panic.
" Are you alright?" said Sally, as she began to disinfect the wound and put a band-aid on it.
" I'm good. This is small comparing how I usually get injured." She joked. We laughed and I realized she wasn't joking.
" Wait you're serious?" I said. She nodded. Okay then...
" Why do we all have some cookies and something to drink." I nodded and we all headed to the kitchen. As we all began munching into Sally's delicious cookies, Audrey looked at me.
" So Percy... is Annabeth you're girlfriend?" she said simply. I nearly choked while Percy coughed.
" How did you know?" I said. She titled her head and grinned.
"I've seen how Percy looks at you and...you two were holding hands." she said as she continued munching on her cookie. Somehow she looked so cute. I blushed while Percy did the same.
She took a sip of her drink, and looked at us with her face serious.
" So...Percy and Annabeth. I need to ask you... are you two deimi-gods?" Everyone stilled. Paul and Sally looked at each other, then us and back at Audrey.
" How...? long did you know?" said Percy, he began to sweat. I took his hand and squeezed it in reasurrence.
Audrey took a breath and looked at us.
" Look all of you can relax. I ain't a monster or a fury for that matter in disguise. I've known you guys were deimi-gods since I saw you. For Percy, I've known he was a powerful deimi-god since I met him." said Audrey. " Besides, I've seen other deimi-gods then you. But I've never believed it until I saw you guys fightning those hellhounds." she shrugged." So this is pretty much new to me."
" You can see the mist." I said, with my poker face on. She looked at me, and rubbed her chin.
" Well I don't know how you call it but ya I can. Not as clearly as but now it's really clear now." said Audrey. I looked at Percy and we nodded.
" We gotta tell Chiron about this." Audrey choked and coughed.
" Wait you mean the Chiron? The one who taught those legendary heroes?" said Audrey as she looked at us. I nodded.
" Okay... let me freak out now." She rose out her chair and went into the living room. We all watched, as she began freaking out like crazy. After a minute, she rubbed her face and went back.
"Sorry. So you gotta tell Chiron about this right? So should I step out or..." I motioned her for sit down. We began to get the nozzle from the kitchen sink and sprayed it making a rainbow. I pulled a golden drachma and began to chant.
" Oh goddess, please accept this offering." I threw it into the rainbow " Camp-halfblood, Chiron please." Soon the rainbow shimmered and Chiron appered.
" Hello Annabeth dear. How are you?"
" I'm good. Look Chiron, there's a mortal who can see the mist." I said. he furrowed his eyebrows and rubbed his chin. After a while, he spoke up.
" Is the mortal here?" as soon he said that Audrey spoke up. " Yup." I motioned for her to come over and she looked at the Iris message.
" Nice to meet you child. Make I ask your name?"
" My name is Audrey, Chiron sir." said Audrey respectively.
" So how long have..."
" I've pretty much known that Percy was a deimi-god when I met him but I wasn't really sure." shrugged Audrey. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.
" So why didn't you tell him in curiousity?" Audrey shrugged.
" I would like to tell you more but I have a feeling this has a 5 minute time limit or somethin." said Audrey. He nodded.
" So Annabeth and Percy, I would like to bring Audrey to Camp-Halfblood if she can." I nodded. Then the message blinked out.
Percy and I looked at Audrey. " So can you go with us?" I said.
She thought for a moment. " Well my parents are on a bussiness trip, and I go back like for a month and a half so I think I can. I'll call them." She began to pull her cellphone and raised the phone to her ear.
She began talking, after a minute or so, she closed the phone and gave us a smile. I smiled back.
" They'll let me, but I just have to call them every so often." I nodded.
" Great! Now I can show you where I go for the summer!" smiled Percy as he wrapped an arm around Audrey. She laughed and pryed him off.
" So when do we leave?" said Audrey. I looked at Sally and Paul and nodded. "Tomorrow." Audrey nodded and went to get her stuff.
