A/N: For clarification, Amantha is his crush since first grade. I did not mean Annabeth.
When I woke up the first thing I saw was Amantha.
"I was so worried!" She shouted.
She caught me off guard when she did that, so the first thing I said was, "Son of a tied down -- Oh, it's just you, Amantha. Why were you worried, Amantha? You hardly acknowledged my existence before I saved your life."
"You do realize how stupid that sounded, right?"
"Now that you mention it, that does sound pretty stupid."
"Of course I'm right. Now come on, you need to see the orientation video."
"Whatevs. Where are we, anyways?"
"It will all be explained in the orientation video."
"I'm coming I'm coming."
(1 Orientation Video later)
"That's pretty cool." I told Amantha.
"So, how long was I out?"
"6 weeks, 3 days, 7 hours, 42 minutes, and 11 seconds."
"Why do you know that?"
"Because I'm awesome like that. Also, 3 days ago I was claimed. I'm in the Athena cabin. We all have really good memories."
"Sounds about right."
"Now, come with me. We need to get you to sword practice."
"Woopee." I said sarcastically.
(At the sword arena)
"Put your sword low!" Percy cried. Whap! "No, not that low!" Whap! "I didn't think it was possible to be that bad!" Whap!
"Okay, I get it, I suck. Can we stop now?" I finally asked Percy.
"Sure. Maybe sword fighting is just not for you. You should try archery."
"Thanks, I will."
(At the archery range)
It was a success. On my first shot, it not only hit the bullseye, but it went through the target. Then I shifted to javelin. I rocked at it. I could also do some tricks, like spinning the javelin around by head so fast I could clear the sword arena of leaves. It was the best day of my life.
Then I said to Chiron, "You know any weapons nobody uses?"
"Only swords, and I'm pretty sure you don't want those."
"I guess you're right."
(The next day, noontime)
I saw Hermes swooping through the air.
"Wow, you're the first god I've seen. Anything I can do for you?" I asked Hermes.
"Actually, I came with a package."
"Who's it for? I can give it to them."
"Actually, it's for you."
"Who in Hades would be giving me a godly package?"
"Um... A god?"
"Wow Hermes, just wow."
"It was the best I could do!" Hermes protested. "Also, there was a letter with it. Here."
"Thanks."
(The letter)
Dear only son,
Obviously, you are my only son. I could not help but hear your short conversation with Chiron, as I am everywhere, and well, that will be explained later. Anyways, knowing you, and me, I knew that could only mean 1 thing. You want to be the odd one out. Since I only have helped you once before, I have enclosed a very special weapon. A Stygian iron sword-staff, to be exact. It's name is Wicked Wind. With it, you can summon wind spirits. To transform it, just pretend it was a regular mechanical pencil and you broke the tip. In other words, just click the button.
Instructions for calling wind spirits:
Kneel to the ground with one of the blades 3-5 inches deep in.
Say, "(Insert command) The only son of Zephyr commands you."
To make a strong wind twirl the staff around your head and then reach out and throw your hand out as if to grab something while holding on to the staff.
Always and Forever,
Zephyr.
At the bottom of the letter there was a mechanical pencil taped to the paper. I ripped it off and clicked it. It grew into a 3-foot long yew staff with a 1-foot long Stygian iron dual edged blade on either side in about half a second.
"Pandora's jar!" I yelled. That thing grew so suddenly it caught me off guard. All through the next week all I did was practice calling wind spirits and with my sword-staff. People complimented the staff on a regular basis.
