Dawn found Percy now awake. Percy's wild ocean blue eyes noticed he had company it took a while till Percy realized the events of last night, and early morning that lead him to have female company in his bed. Yawning I blinked open my dark brown eyes, and nearly screamed
"Calm down. . you just slept over after what happened" Percy told me
"Oh" About two hours, and a hot shower later, Percy, and I joined Sally, and Gabe at the kitchen table for breakfast
"How'd you sleep Angela?" Sally asked
"Like a scared rock" I sighed
"I talked it over with Gabe, and you're more than welcome to live with us" Sally told me, Percy seemed to smile at this. . .
Percy, and I caught up with the rest of our Greek Mythology class as we got off the school bus, and walked into the New York long Island New Greek and Roman Gallery Museum.
-"Be prepared. Everything is about to change. Percy Everything is about to change" I saw Percy looking around
"Hey Perce!" I heard Grover trying to get Percy's attention
"I got this" I told Grover as I leaned up, and gently pecked Percy's right cheek; Percy smiled down at me "You alright?"
"Yeah just thought I saw someone a man" Percy told me as we followed Grover into the museum
"There are twelve Olympians gods. The big three are the brothers Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. They attained power by overthrowing their father, Kronos, chopping him into little pieces. The three gods have been rivals ever since. Always arguing, always threatening war. On several occasions, they would come down to Earth, and um How shall I put this?" Mr. Brunner asked
"Hook up" Grover said as the class laughed, Percy just gave a 'like are you serious' look
"They would hook up with mortals" I noticed Percy rolled his eyes as Mr. Brunner went on
"The children of these unions were half god, half human. Can anyone tell me what they were called?" Just then Grover elbowed me "Angela?"
"Oh I'm sorry. What? Mr. Brunner?" I asked
"What is the proper name of the offspring of a human, and a god?" I hesitated than replied
"Um demigod"
"Exactly". And many became great heroes like Hercules, and Achilles" I noticed as Mr. Brunner went on talking Percy seemed a bit distracted
"Perce?"
"Hmm"
"You sure you're ok?"
"Yeah just bored
"Can you name another? I'll give you a hint Percy. You have something in common" Percy looked up at the statue hind Mr. Brunner's head like he was trying to decrypt it
"Percy. . ." I heard him say to himself before looking at Mr. Brunner "Perseus?"
"Correct" Mr. Brunner moved his wheel chair to another statue "Now, over here we have a depiction of Hercules defeating the Nemean lion. Hercules killed the beast with his bare hands, and took the skin as a trophy.
As Mr. Brunner talked I saw the substitute English teacher walk behind Percy
"What do you think she wants with him?" Lillian asked me
"Maybe he forgot to turn in his homework" Atrau said I rolled my dark brown eyes
"Percy?"
"Mrs. Dodds?" Percy asked
"We need to talk" She told him
"Okay" Percy said as he left with her a few minutes later like a half an hour later I noticed something was off about Mrs. Dodds so I followed where I saw Percy go
"The next eleven labors would become increasingly difficult" I shook my bronzed golden head I saw a sign on a glass door that read 'Instation In Progress Enter Temporarily' 'Wonder what's in here?' thought just than I heard Percy
"So did I do something wrong?" I blinked as I pressed upon the glass door, and it slid open silently just than I along with Percy heard the sound of wings fluttering
"Mrs. Dodds? Hello?" Percy asked
"Where is it?" I heard a voice ask harshly Percy, and I both turned around to see Mrs. Dodds
"Oh whoa! Hey! Hey. How did you get up there?" Percy asked her suddenly Mrs. Dodds roars, and leapt down towards Percy
"Percy!" I yelled as a winged once Mrs. Dodds came flying for him
"Whoa. Whoa Whoa!" Percy than spotted me "What are you doing here?" Percy asked as he grabbed my right hand, and ran
"I came looking for you, Lillian's suggestion" I looked over my right shoulder, and saw what used to be Mrs. Dodds as Percy, and I continued running I felt claws in my back, as I felt the floor below me give I screamed as Mrs. Dodds dug her claws into my back. . .
Percy's P.O.V.
I felt Angela's hand slip from mine as we ran from Mrs. Dodds than I heard Angela scream I looked up to see Mrs. Dodds digging her claws into Angela's back
"You stole the lightning bolt!"
"I don't know what you're talking about! Now hand Angela over!" I stood up
"Give it to me!" Just as Mrs. Dodds flew down, and grabbed me with her other two claws "Give it to me! Now, or I will tear you heart out!" I heard the door being kicked in
"Percy!" Grover yelled causing Mrs. Dodds to drop me
"Release her!" Mrs. Brunner said loudly
"You!"
"Release her, or I swear I'll tear you to pieces!" Mrs. Dodds hissed, and dropped her luckily I caught Angela before she hit the marble floor I placed her against the wall as I walked around
"I'm going crazy! Oh I should be on medication"
"Percy, calm down, okay Everything's gonna be okay!" I heard Grover
"Oh, God, wait! Did that really just happen? She just turned into that thing?" I asked freaking out
"A Fury concealed at our school. I should have known." I heard Mr. Brunner say
"Wait a Fury? What's a Fury? And why did you say you could tear her to pieces?" I asked
"What did she want from you guys?"
"She said something about us stealing a bolt"
"They found them"
"They're in danger"
"Whose found us?" I asked
"They're no longer secure here. Where should we move them?"
"We have no choice. The Camp"
"Huh? What camp? Look I'm standing right here. And what about Angela?"
"If they think they're the thieves there's nowhere safe on heaven, and Earth for them now. Percy take this to defend yourself. It's a powerful weapon. Guard it well" Mr. Brunner handed me a pen "Only use it in times of severe distress"
"This is a pen. This is a pen! How am I suppose to protect Angela let alone myself with a pen!"
"Take them to his mother, and don't let them out of your sight"
"Okay Percy, come on. Come one man. Come On!" I knelt down, and lifted Angela into my arms after I put the pen in my back pocket as I followed Grover carefully out of the building whilst carrying an unconscious Angela
" Look, man what's going on?" Grover shushed me
"Look don't trust anyone okay? Don't look at anybody, just keep walking!"
"Why did Mr. Brunner ask you to watch us?"
"Because I'm your guys protector"
"Wait, wait, wait hold on. Our protector? Are you kidding?"
"What, you think because I'm like this I'm not capable of keep you two safe?"
"Maybe you're not seeing what I'm seeing. You have crutches!"
"Look, I would give my life to secure both your well-beings"
What are you talking about? What's going on?"
"We got to warn your mom. Come on Perce" I followed Grover carefully thru the crowded streets as we came to my apartment I carried Angela up the stairs as Grover opened the door I saw Gabe in the kitchen I sighed, and lay Angela on the couch.
"Sally! More beer!" I heard Gabe yell
"Mom! Hey Mom. Mom! Mom! Look. We gotta talk okay?"
"Hey! Can't you see she's servicing me, and my friends?" Gabe asked I hear Angela groan
"Hey. Hey! Don't talk about my mom like that, you bald-headed freak" Gabe went to grab me,
"No, Gabe! Gabe!" My mom yelled
"Calm down!" Grover said just as I pushed past him, he slammed his crutch hard down on Gabe's right foot , and kneed him in the groin I saw Angela sit up slowly from my place in the kitchen
"Hey nice one"
"Like I said I'm your guys' protector"
"Yeah" As Grover talked with my mom I walked quickly over to Angela, and helped her up
"Hurry up Perce!" Grover yelled as he, and my mom ran out of the apartment, I grabbed Angela's hand as we ran out, and got into the car, Grover was up front with my mom. I let Angela put her head on my shoulder as my mom drove
"Look, what is happening? Okay I swear. We didn't steal anything!"
"Honey I believe you"
Where are you taking us? What is this camp?"
"It's a camp for really special people like yow two"
"Special people? What are we crazy, or something?"
"No, honey" Percy this has to do with your fathers"
"Angela's father died last night, Mom he was shot" My mom sighed
"Perce. . . that wasn't Angela's father who was shot. Just her guardian" I looked at my mom
"Wait does Angela know he's not her father?"
"No" I dropped the subject as my mom began talking about how she met my father
"Sally, Watch out!" I heard Grover yell from the front seat just than the car spun out of control as it hit something it flipped over
"Angela! Angela are you alright?"
"Yeah" I heard her groan
"Is it me, or is it raining cows?" Grover asked as the four of us heard heavy footsteps approaching the car. In the front seat my mom tried getting the car door open while Grover stripped down his pants, and slammed on the front window causing it to break "Come on, get out of the car! That thing's getting closer!" I helped Angela as Grover became pushy.
The three of us ran after Grover thru an old field in front of us I heard my mom's car land on the side of the field in front of us, I reached back, and grabbed Angela's hand as Grover spoke
"We're here" I looked up to see an arch in the middle of the clearing I looked up at the sign which now read 'Camp Half-Blood' Grover, Angela, and I ran under. I felt Angela pull back , I turned around, and saw my mom standing on the other side
"Mom! What are you doing?"
"This is as far as I can go Percy" I tried pulling her thru
"I can't go thru! I'm not like you guys!"
"Percy, we can't just leave her" I heard Angela say
"You have too!" My mom said I noticed Angela was standing next to my mother when they were both grabbed from behind I came running out pissed
"Put my mother, and girlfriend down!" I yelled at the creature "What can I do?"
"Use Brunner's pen, and clicked it!" I threw down my bags, pulled out the pen, and clicked it. It opened up into a sword I had just gotten the sword in front of me when the horned creature made my mom turn to dust, and slammed Angela into a near by tree. Furious I ran after it, and dodged it's coming attack when it stupidly shoved me the tip of it's horn into a tree, I grabbed the tip, and drove it into the stomach of the creature. The last thing I remember was seeing a man standing next to Angela
"No, Angela" I called out as I fainted
