MY FATHERS
Chapter Dos: Time to Discuss
POV: Thalia Grace
When the hunters, the little girl, and I got to camp, the little girl was still clutching on to me. Right now, maybe I was the only one she trusted.
"Um, sweetie, how old are you?" I said.
"I'm eight." She said. Wait, what?
"Well you don't look eight!" But then again, everyone looked little to me. Oops! She looked, like, 6 or something.
"Well, I am." She pouted. We hurried along to the big house before any other question popped out of my mouth. (Okay, I know there's too much dialogue, so bare with me!)
When we were inside the big house, I rushed to Chiron (in his wheelchair) and tried to act smooth. This is what happened:
I tripped over a chair. I got up, grabbed the girl's wrist and brought her to Chiron immediately. I yelled, "Chiron! Chiron! This girls a demigod!" Smooth, right?
"Hello, Thalia! And who is this precious girl? A demigod? Now tell me, what is your name? Do you have dyslexia or ADHD?" Chiron said patiently. Just then, Dionysus walks in, drinking diet coke as usual, with his angry face. He scratches his back, and then walks out. Ew. The girl makes a face as though she's deciding whether to trust these people, but she looks at me, then smiles.
"Ok, my name is Sarah Jean Leviman. I am eleven years old, and yes, I do have ADHD and dyslexia. Oh, by the way, do NOT, ever, EVER, call me by Sarah Jean. I hate that name. So people call me SJ." She said calmly. She had a warm smile on her face when she was talking. SJ walked out of the room, skipping as she went along.
"Thalia, I'm asking you with all my heart for you to take care of her." Chiron said darkly.
"But, um, Chiron," I mumbled, twirling my hair, "I have Artemis! And the Hunters! I can't take care of her! I have to leave soo-"
"Thalia, I will talk to Artemis. Right now, SJ only just trust you. Just for a few days, "He said, but very quietly, he added, "or weeks."
"Oh, no, no, no, no. I can't take off that much. Just get Percy or Annabeth, even Mr. D, for gods sake, just to watch her." Now Chiron was getting mad. He stood up from his wheelchair and turned into a centaur.
"THALIA GRACE! DAUGHTER OF ZEUS! LISTEN TO ME! YOU HAVE NOT BEEN HERE FOR TWO YEARS! A NEW GREAT PROPHECY HAS BEEN TOLD! THIS MAY LINK TO SJ!" Chiron was furious. I didn't want to cause any more trouble, so all I said was, "Yes sir. I'm sorry." And right after, I chased after SJ.
Okay, I know this one was a little boring, but the next on, I promise!, it will be so awesome. I swear. Ttyl! AND IM ON SPRING BREAK RIGHT NOW, SO MY SERIES WILL GO FAST, I MIGHT POST 1 OR 2 PIECES A DAY. THAT'S HOW BORED I AM. SO HAPPY READING TO ALL!
