Naomi didn't know how she should feel at the moment. Hurt? Betrayal? Anger?
Literally in a single afternoon her entire worldlike Kronos was cut to a thousand pieces. Her father was the lover of a god. Not just any god mind you, but the king of the gods. The father of heroes.
How does one cope with that? Come home and find out your basically royalty. When her father called her princess, she just thought it was one of those precious names parents give out. But in her case she was quite literally a princess.
Night had fallen by the time she and her brother made it out the city. They had a taxi take them as far as the cash they had on them would allow. Which was only a few miles from their destination.
Walking the rest of the way. Naomi looked to her brother who waswalking in strides with her. Since they left their home and Dad behind, her brother hasn't uttered a single word.
Something she herself couldn't understand. It was like he wasn't bothered by this whatsoever. In fact...he looked...happy.
"How are you not freaking out right now?" She said somewhat in bewilderment. "We just found out that our missing parent is a god, and we're now going to live a life that'll give R rated movies nightmares. Yet here you are acting like it's not a big deal."
Her brother just shrugged smiling slightly answering her. "It's not a big deal, if you think about it. If you truly think about it Naomi, it makes perfect sense."
"Truly?"
"Of course it does. I've always felt as if, there was something more in our life, like we were meant for so much more. Let's not forget either how we were always stronger and faster compared to everyone at school."
Naomi had to give her brother props on the last one. During P.E. class the twins would always our run their peers, our in her brothers class out lift them.
"Oh, I almost forgot the last point. Dad never let us go to the beach, or a pool party."
"Course Dad wouldn't let us go anywhere near water."Naomi thought. Both her father and uncle Poseidon arebitter rivals.
Before she could say anything back to her brother. Naomi notices a turned over yellow camaro.
"Naruto look!" She points to the car. Naruto looks to were she's pointing and quickly runs towards the crash with her following.
"I don't see anyone in here Naomi." Her brother checks inside.
"Thank god." She breaths. Taking a closer look at the vehicle, she saw one side of the car completely bashed in.
"What could have caused this crash?" She thought.
The daughter of heaven couldn't contemplate on the matter long.
In the distance she heard a loud "MOO" sound coming from the forest.
"Please tell me you heard that!" She begged. Her answer was her brother unsheathing his sword running into the woods.
Naomi chased after him yelling that they didn't know how to fight with weapons yet. When she finally caught up with her brother, they were in the middle of a small clearing with a large archway that read "Camp Half-Blood"
That wasn't the only thing they noticed in the clearing. Standing four feet in front of them were two people looking up at a huge muscular man covered in black fur, and had horns protruding out his head. It even had hooves for feet.
"Naruto." Naomi swallows. "Is that what I think it is."
"Looks much bigger than I thought it would." He grins. "Naomi, help the others. I'll keep the bull busy." The prince of Olympus charged the monster weapon in hand.
Naomi couldn't understand what had possessed her brother. Usually he was the type that preferred to keep to himself. Since they learned of who they were however, it's like he was more alive than he's ever been.
While her brother was fighting the Minotaur, Naomi ran up to the other two, one with curly red hair and horns, with the top half of a human but the bottom of what looked like a goat. The other boy had wild pitch-black hair, and bright sea-green eyes with
a slight pointed face. He had a haunted look in his eyes.
"Percy I'm sorry man! But we need to go, there nothing we can do." The curly haired boy begs his friend. Trying to get him to budge.
Percy however refused to move. Continuing to stare at where the monster once stood.
"What's wrong?!" Naomi said hurriedly. "Why isn't he moving?!"
Goat boy looks at her somewhat surprised. "Who are you?"
"Does that really matter now?" Naomi said looking back her brother who ducked under a overhand swing.
"I guess not." He too looks back albeit nervously. It's my friend he won't move. He..he just witnessed his mother being killed."
Naomi gives a look of sympathy to the boy. She did know however they couldn't stand around where it wasn't safe. So getting Percy's attention the only way she knew how. Naomi slaps him hard across the face.
"Ow! What was that far!" He cries.
Ignoring his whining, she point at the gateway. "Come on we have to." She stops suddenly. She didn't need to turn around to know her brother was hurt. She didn't even need to confirming sound of a body crashing against a tree. Naomi felt that all before
it happened.
Turning to face the Minotaur and her brother. Naomi saw Naruto laying like a heap on the ground groaning in pain. Knowing that what she was about to do was foolish, Naomi pulls her silver cylinder out her pocket, it automatically turning into a twin lighting
blade.
Beside her she heared a small gasp. She looked to her right to see the curly boy looking at her and her blade in disbelief.
"Get him inside and bringhelp." Naomi didn't even wait for a confirmation, for she was already running to help her brother.
The Minotaur didn't pay her no mind, until she slashed it behind the leg. Bringing it to its knees growling in pain.
"You ok bro?" She asked not taking her eyes off their enemy.
"Ugh! I think so." Naruto coughs in pain, shakily getting to his feet.
Just as Naruto made it to her side. The bastard child got to its feet glaring he's beedy red eyes at them.
"Together?" Naruto said readying his sword.
Naomi nods. "Together."
Naruto and Naomi ran at the hybrid bull, both of them dodging the opposite side of each other. Letting their instinct take over.
The Minotaur not knowing which demigod to go after first, stood where he was. The twins coming back around slashing at his back and mid-rift. Moving to quickly for the creature.
With its back turned to Naomi, she jumps on its back making it buck around trying to throw her off. In its effort to throw her off, Naomi, who was trying to cut his off his headinstead cuts off one horn.
Seeing that his sister needs help. Naruto rushes in trying to stab it in the side, only to be knocked aside like a fly. Dealing with the son is Zeus, the Minotaur was finally able to grab the kings daughter throwing her towards her brother.
It would have been the end of them then and there as the child of Pasiphaƫ looked ready to charge them. It made one mistake however. It wasforgetting about the demigod it was sent after.
"Hey behind you!" Percy screams. The Minotaur turns just in time as the young man plunged its own horn in its gut. Roaring in pain, Percy is sent flying into a tree by the dying monster who is knocked out.
Both children of Zeus stareon watching as the Minotaur turns completely to golden dust. Leaving behind nothing but his horn.
They suddenly hear a bunch of heavy footing coming there way. Looking towards the archway, a group of kids around their age and older wearing battle armor and armed to the teeth, approached. Behind them was a elder looking man. A men with the bottom half
a white stallion.
He had oven baked brown hair and trimmed beard, wearing a grey striped business suit.
"Grover! What happened here." The man spoke.
The now revealed Grover started to sputter out his words.
"Ch-c-chrion, I-I'm Sorry. I fa-fa-failed again."
Chiron holds up a hand a places it comfortablely on the boys shoulder. "Grover, I need you take a deep breath and explain everything that happened."
Doing as he was told to. Grover starts to tell his fellow mythical creature everything. During the whole explanation, Chiron's expression was slightly troubled.
Once he heard everything that was worth hearing and made sure Percy was taken beyond the camp borders. Chiron walked over to where Naomi and Naruto was.
"It appears we owe the both of you thanks." He studies them.
"No thanks is necessary sir." She said, her brother nodding in agreement.
"We just wanted to help the best we could." Naruto said.
"And from what I heard, you did just that. Not many demigods survive their first monster. Especially one as famous as that one."
"I must admit sir. I was still a bit skeptical at first, until seeing the min."
"Lets reframe from saying his name my dear." Chiron holds up a hand to silence her. "You'll learn that names hold power. So please from this point forward, try to keep from saying them aloud."
Confused somewhat as they've been saying mythical creatures names aloud their whole lives. They agreed.
The two noticed that he was staring at their weapons.
"See Chiron! I told you." Grover points.
"Indeed. I haven't seen a sword like that since Perseus trained here." The old centaur mumbled.
"They even smell like her." Grover frowns looking over at a certain tree.
"Should we be offended?" Naruto said glaring at her
Before anything else could be said. Glowing symbols appeared above the twins heads. Both had blue glowing lighting bolts above their heads.
"This really doesn't bode well." Chiron says with a grim expression.
"Guess it goes without saying." Naruto said. "I'm Naruto, and this is my older sister Naomi: we're the proud children of Zeus."
