This is the second chapter of Daughter of Who? By Tesswithwings. Again please go easy on me its my first novel based fan fic. And I haven't read the books in a few months. I haven't really decided when it is in the story right now. I'm thinking maybe between the 4th and 5th book. Thanks!
The force tugged Tess out the door. She sighed and put down her bag on the porch.
"Where are you Percy?" she asked the darkness. The force, like a rope tied around her waist, tugged her again and she fallowed its direction. Bare foot she ran off the steps and out into the grass fallowing nothing but the tug. She soon found a bunch of cabins placed in a "U" shape. She slowed down and passed each one looking up at each with aw.
When she got to the third cabin she looked up at it. It had some sorta of sea theme. Well it looked like it did; Tess couldn't exactly see all that well in the darkness. Tess stepped up to the door and knocked lightly.
"Percy?" she knocked again this time a little harder.
No answer.
"Percy Jackson?" she asked still knocking. With no progress what so ever she folded her arms in defeat and blew her bags out of her face. She bit her lower lip as she always did when she was in deep thought.
"Damn it" she mumbled. She was about to knock again when the door opened an inch all by itself. In shock she gasped. She pushed the door the rest of the way open and saw that no one was behind it.
"Well that's creepy…" she whispered then walked in and closed the door. Tess took a deep breath before going into the cabin any further.
"Percy?" she whispered. She looked around in all the bunks whispering her hero's name.
"No one is in here!" she almost yelled and threw up her arms. In responds to her noise she heard some sleepy groans. She fallowed the noises till she came upon a bunk… the only bunk in the entire cabin with someone sleeping in it. She looked down at him debating on weather to wake him. He looked so peace full but Tess was on a mission.
"Percy?" she asked and shook his shoulder.
"Go away mom" he mumbled not awake.
Tess giggled amused with his response. She then turned on the light by Percy's bed.
"Try harder to wake him stupid girl" the voice inside Tess's head said.
"I'm trying… and I'm not stupid!" Tess argued with herself and tried again to rouse him.
"Mom, I'll take out the trash in a bit" he mumbled and waved away Tess with his hand.
"I'm not your mother you dork" she laughed and tried again this time getting really close to his face.
The boy's eyes fluttered open and he yelled startled.
"Shut up" Tess said and covered his mouth with her hand. Tess didn't really want someone coming to his rescue when she asked what the hell was going on.
Percy mumbled something incomprehensible behind her hand.
"I'll move my hand if you promise not to scream…" Tess said.
He nodded once and she removed her hand. Percy sat up in his bed and starred at Tess for several minutes.
"What?" Tess said suddenly getting self-conscious.
"You don't belong here"
"Then why did you bring me here!" Tess yelled confused.
"… I meant you don't belong in my cabin… I could get in a lot of trouble if any one found out you were in here."
"Then lets not let anyone find out, shall we?" Tess said and smirked a little, felling in more confident with herself.
"What are you doing here anyway?" Percy asked.
"I have some questions…"
"About?"
"What's for lunch tomorrow?" Tess said sarcastically "you know exactly what I'm talking about!"
"Ask anyway" Percy said.
"Can I sit?"
Percy nodded and Tess sat down on his bed.
"Why am I here?" Tess asked looking down at her hands.
"Lets start with were you are… this is Camp Half Blood."
Tess gave him a confused look.
"It's a camp for demi gods"
She raised an eyebrow.
"Half god half human."
"Oh" Tess mumbled, "I still don't see why I'm here"
"You're a demi god"
"Ha ya and I have a pet unicorn too," Tess snorted.
Percy shook his head. "Can we talk about this tomorrow?" he asked and laid back down covering his head with a pillow.
"Uh no!" Tess said and snatched the pillow. Oddly she felt totally comfortable sitting there with Percy.
"If I knew your were gunna be this big of a pain I wouldn't have saved you" Percy lied. He laid down with an arm a crossed his eyes and a small smile on his face.
"Thanks by the way" Tess said and hugged the pillow.
"Don't mention it" he yawned.
"Wake up Percy!" Tess groaned and hit him with the pillow.
"I don't want to"
"To bad! Now explain what's going on!"
"Who are your parents?" Percy asked.
"I don't know… I've always been in foster care"
"Do you know if you had a mom or a dad?"
"Uh yah I'm pretty sure I had both it takes two to tango ya know"
At that Percy laughed, "your not gunna leave till I explain everything too you are you?"
"Nope"
Percy yawned and sat up again he reached for his alarm clock that sat on a bed stand next to his bed. The blanket fell down and laid at his waits reviling his shirtless chest.
"What are you looking at?" Percy asked eyeing Tess.
"Huh?" Tess asked and snapped her eyes back to Percy's face.
"Nothing" Percy laughed.
I guess it pays to be a hero Tess thought to herself glancing down at Percy's chest then at her hands, I wonder if he has a girl friend…
"Focus stupid" the voice said.
"Okay so the jist of things are that we are at a summer camp called Camp Half Blood for those who are demi gods… I am the son of the sea god, Poseidon…You are the daughter of… I don't know…"
"Does anyone know?"
"Your God parent does"
"Will they tell me?"
"Maybe… I was told a few days after I arrived here but there are some kids who lived her most of their life and don't know"
"That doesn't seem fair"
"Those are the Gods for you"
"Rude" Tess said and looked around, "how did you score a cabin all by yourself?"
"I'm the only son of Poseidon… only child actually"
"Lucky for us or you would be in trouble" Tess said.
'Yup… now will you go back to the house so I can sleep its almost four A.M."
"I don't want too" Tess admitted and hugged the pillow again, "I'm scared"
"Why?"
"I woke up in a strange room after being attacked by a snake thingy! Then I have you who are not much help making me practically beg for information about everything."
"All the more reason for you to go to bed… you have a long day tomorrow… now that your better you will be put in the Hermes cabin and you will start hero training"
"I don't want to be a hero! Aren't you listening! All I want is to know what's going on and why I was attacked and why I'm…" Tess jumped up and told Percy.
"Why your what?" Percy asked with a soft serious voice.
"Why I'm so different" Tess whispered and dropped to her knees with tears. Percy got out of bed and kneeled next to her.
"Your different because you are a child of a God but its okay" he said and tried to comfort her by laying his hand on her back making her flinch and fall to butt.
"No its not… I'm so lost… so alone" She sighed and held her self.
"Everything will work its self out Tess… I'll be right there with you to help you find your way out… and your never alone not anymore I'm right here" Percy said and hugged Tess. For the short hours he knew her he felt her pain… he remembered how it was to wake up in a strange place not knowing what was going on…luckily he Grover and Annabeth to help him. And now he was gunna help Tess.
Tess laid her head on Percy's chest. She took deep breaths to calm herself, soon her eyes got heavy and she wanted to sleep but she didn't want to move or leave.
"Percy?" she whispered and was answered with a snore. She smiled and closed her eyes letting the sleep take her under.
Thanks for reading! And don't forget to review.
