"Percy… Percy are you alright"
I slowly opened my eyes it was the first time I had actually stirred, probably for 2 days. It was morning and Annabeth was right in front of me! Her hair was all messed up and she had claw marks all over her and blood down the side of her face.
"Annabeth, you're ok?" I managed to say still taking in how injured she was. She looked at me and smiled,
"Yeah, I'm fine now. No thanks to YOU Seaweed Brain." I smiled at that Annabeth was ok. I looked around we were in the same clearing where Luke and me fought and then Celosia came. Celosia… where was she. I looked some more and saw her she was sitting on the ground in front of a fire in the middle of the clearing next to her that same grey wolf. I tried to stand up but failed epically so Annabeth had to help me over or I would have fell. Celosia looked up at me and smiled,
"Hey, have you finished trying to kill yourself?" she said sarcastically. It was the first time I had a proper look at her, her hair was long and brown and she had electric blue eyes. I was assured I had seen her before but where?
"I don't understand what happened. How did we get here?" I asked. Annabeth looked at Celosia then started to talk,
"Well you got into a fight with Luke trying to find me and Celosia found you so she intervened, and I was being chased by a pack of lycanthrope's. They caught up with me then Lycaon started pouncing and attacking me, I couldn't defend them…" I interrupted her,
"You mean Lycaon from the myths, you know the one that was thrown into Tatarus?" I asked, it didn't seem that weird a question but as I looked round at Annabeth's and Celosia's face it seemed weird to say.
"Well obviously." It was Celosia that spoke, "Lycaon has probably awoken the Neuri tribe from a Northeast region of Scythia but he must be using something else to stop them from changing back to human form from wolf form."
"Ok you say all this but who even are you?" I asked. It was true she seemed to know us but we didn't know her
"I'm no one look when you're better you'll go you're way and I'll go mine. No one needs know about this." I was a bit shocked when she said this, who would want to live alone in a forest?
"Look you turned into a wolf and you're probably a demigod so why won't you tell us?" I said starting to get annoyed. Celosia sighed and stroked the grey wolf,
"Alright maybe you should know a bit. I'm Celosia Harris and I'm 17 yrs old. You're right I do have a Godly parent but I am not like you. My Mum is Jessica Harris she's a kind of lycanthrope…" Annabeth gasped, I was a little shocked that a God would even talk to a werewolf. Celosia waited as if she was trying to think of what to say.
" Yeah she was but not a strong one, it was in her blood but she couldn't change into one but the change came out in me. Now my Dad well he's a God but he's kinda … Zeus God of the Sky."
Now I was really shocked this meant that Zeus had broken that silly vow twice!
"Really that means Thalia's your sister or half-sister!" Annabeth exclaimed.
"It does doesn't it. I mean there's lots of other things but you don't need to know." Celosia said more to herself than us.
"But how do you know Luke" I asked more curious. As Celosia didn't just know him she knew he well better than I reckon even Annabeth does.
"Around that time I had left home, I had joined a pack of peaceful Lycanthrope who taught me to control when I turned into a wolf. I was around 6 yrs old; I had strayed from the pack and stumbled upon a wild pack. They had corned someone, that someone was Luke. I don't know how he had got caught but he had. I rushed in and defended him because unlike them I could control it and hated who I was. I shouldn't have had a chance against a whole pack, i didn't know how i fought like that." Celosia ended quite abruptly she stopped then took a deep breath,
"To cut it short we went on quite a few adventures but then he nearly died, I couldn't bare to see him in pain so I left him, he thought I was dead so he couldn't get hurt. You see whoever I am around gets hurt so I've stuck to having animal friends." She looked down at the grey wolf and smiled.
I was stunned by all that so was Annabeth by the looks of her. She seemed somewhat embarrassed but I couldn't see why?
"One more thing I don't get is how could Lycaon come back if he was thrown into Tatarus how did he get back?"
"Seaweed Brain, Kronos is in Tatarus." Annabeth said slowly.
Oh
