Greeks and Romans Meeting Eygptians
(One and a half months after the defeat of Gaea)
Annabeth's POV
Percy, Jason, and I were doing sword training when it happened. "Percy, Jason, Annabeth!" we turn to see Nico, the son of Hades, running towards us with a worried look. "What is it Nico?" Jason asked him. Nico stopped right in front of us and caught his breath before saying, "I was out on the Brooklyn Bridge when I was attacked!" Mine and Percy's eyes widen. "What attacked you? A hellhound? An empousa?" I asked. "No, it was a black and white wolf!" he told us.
That's when we became confused. He saw the doubt on our faces and added, "It wasn't a full wolf! It was some sort of werewolf! It even spoke to me and said, 'One by one, everyone you know will fall to my claws,'! It could have killed me if Sadie and Carter-"
"Wait! Who are Sadie and Carter?" Percy asked, but I knew that he already knew Carter. I knew about Sadie.
"Styx, I almost forgot! I was rescued by Egyptian magicians!" "WHAT?!" Jason exclaimed. Nico saw that Percy and I weren't as surprised as Jason and asked, "Why aren't you guys shocked about this?" Me and Percy looked at each other. "Did you guys already know about this?" Jason asked us. We nodded our heads.
That's when the horn for dinner blew and we went to our tables. After eating, Chiron stomped his foot and said, "Attention everyone, attention," everyone looked at him, "We have some very special guests today. As some of you know, Nico di Angelo was attack by a strange black and white werewolf. Luckily he was saved by these two people." Then two people, a boy about 17 years old with dark skin and brown eyes and a girl about 14 years old with white skin, blue eyes, and caramel blond hair with red highlights.
Mr. D said, "These are Sammie and Caleb Can," but then Chiron whispered something in his ear and then said, "I mean Sadie and Carter Kane." "These two are not Greeks or Romans," Chiron said, "These two are Egyptian magicians." That's what stirred the crowd up, but everyone listened to what the two had to say.
They explained that the wolf had started attacking them about a month ago and killed three magicians already. "All we're asking is that we team up to defeat this wolf so that we don't end up with all of us dead," Sadie said. "Please. This wolf is obviously more dangerous than it looks," Carter said.
Just then, a new voice spoke, "Well this might be more fun than I thought." The stranger walked out of the shadows. He had black hair with a little white in the front and an amber eye. I say eye because his other eye… wasn't there. His other eye was scared out. He looked to be about 15 "I know that voice!" Nico yelled. "Well it's hard to forget someone who almost killed you and is a sibling. For example, Luke Castellan or Bianca di Angelo." The stranger said with a smile.
Nico's face showed anger and shock when he mentioned Luke and Bianca. That's when I pieced it all together. "That's impossible!" I said. The dark teen looked at me and said, "Not if you were brought back to life." Then he turned into a wolf and shadow traveled away. We thought he was gone, but then Percy pushed me out of the way.
When I look up, I see my boyfriend under the paw of the one eye wolf. People started to come closer to help Percy, but the wolf growled, "Come any closer and he DIES!" They backed away from them. "Let's start the end of this camp with the death of…" he started to say, but then caught an arrow that would have killed him if he had not moved. His eye shifted from the arrow to the archer that shot it. I look at where the arrow came from and saw Will Solace, son of Apollo.
"Oh Styx… NO!" Nico yelled, but the wolf shadow traveled to will and bit down on his neck before anyone could react. When I hear an unforgettable cracking sound, I knew that Will was just killed. The wolf opened his jaw dropping Will, but his body fell to the ground. "Let's start with my dear brother's dearest friend that tried to kill me and fail fatally," the wolf said as disappeared for good this time.
Nico stared at Will's dead body with sadness. Soon he started crying for his lost friend. I knew that Nico and Will were good friends, but now Will was gone. Sadie had the nerve to walk up to Nico and say to him, "I'm so sorry for your loss." I could see she was trying not to cry. I thought that maybe Sadie lost one of her close friends too and that's why she was comforting Nico.
With that wolf on the loose, who knows who's next to be killed by this monster. Percy, who was luckily okay, walk up to Carter and say, "We will join you to defeat this monster."
Author's Note
Sorry for killing Will, but I needed some sort of twist in this chapter. Btw I think of Nico and Will as really good friends. NOT a couple! If you don't like that, well deal with it. NO bad comments!
