Chapter 1: Brother
That next morning, I awoke at dawn and quickly left to find my father. "Who is your son?" I burst out as soon as I found him, lounging in a throne with his trident beside him. He froze. "How do you know about Percy?" He asked nervously, standing up suddenly defensive. I raised an eyebrow but explained the curious dream I had the night before. He groaned then slammed himself back into his chair, looking exhausted.
"He is a demigod who was born 16 years ago. That's why I made the Poseidon cabin in the camp. Zeus believes Percy stole the lightning bolt. He has no idea that we exist though!" Father shouted in despair.
"Do not fear, father. Achilles and I will watch over him," I soothed the best I could. Poseidon looked up at me and nodded sadly, saying, "He's at Camp Half-Blood now. Go, you must leave soon. I will send an Iris message to Chiron, telling him of your arrival. Be safe."
I smiled brightly, kissing him on the cheek before hurrying off to awaken my lover. Later that morning, both Achilles and I were ready to go. I quickly grasped his hand and teleported us to the demigod camp near New York.
I was shocked when we both landed in a tree but regained my senses, only to scream in surprise and cling to a thick branch so I wouldn't fall out. It's sad that I'm afraid of falling out of a tree when I couldn't die. Achilles, who had actually found his way to flat ground during my screaming, started laughing hysterically at my predicament.
"Ha, ha. You've had your laugh, now help me down!" I shrieked at him. He knows I hate heights! "After all these years, you'd think you would have gotten better at teleportation," he jested with a sly smirk after helping me from the tree.
"Be silent! And for that comment, you won't be getting anywhere near me tonight! Sleep with Ares, I'm sure he'd love that," I remarked, referring to the time Achilles had accidentally walked into Ares' room while he was with Aphrodite, somehow thinking it was mine. I still have no idea how he mixed the two up, but Ares had been pissed.
Achilles' tan face paled and he hurried to catch up with me as I walked towards the Big House angrily. "Ari, come on. Nothing happened in the tree! You're fine, don't send me to him!" He pleaded as we passed shocked or confused campers. Since we weren't part of the main 12, we weren't very well known by the demigods. Chiron sometimes tells our story around the fire though, seeing at he thinks it's funny how his student and a goddess ended up together. Don't worry, I don't get him either.
I sighed and turned around, pressing a soft but quick kiss to his lips, murmuring, "I guess I still cannot decline you anything."
"Arianna, Achilles, wonderful to see the two of you again. It's been quite a while," Chiron the Centaur greeted with a kind smile. "Percy just woke up from his fight with the Minotaur. The Satyr, Grover Underwood, is showing him around camp."
"Thank you, my old friend. My wife and I will wait in Poseidon's cabin for him. Please bring him up when he is done," Achilles said, bowing his head slightly. Chiron nodded before galloping off to rejoin the other Centaurs.
"It hasn't changed a bit," I said as we stopped in front of the huge cabin with the trident on it, having been there a few years before. Achilles agreed, capturing my lips in a passionate kiss as we ignored the Aphrodite daughters awing over us.
We soon stepped inside and patiently waited for my half-brother, which was thankfully extremely soon.
A/N: I hope I got most of the facts of the camp right. They don't give enough in the movie. I used the knowledge from what I've read in other PJ book fanfics. Have a nice day!
