Hii guys, this is chpt 2, this is my First attempt at writing so review or two can help me allot and sorry for the delay i will try to get chpt 3 up as soon an i can till then enjoy
I wake up sometime later feeling the warmth of a hand against my own, as I lifted my head to see who it belonged to I saw a lot of crimson red blood staining my otherwise white T-shirt so I craned my neck to find it's source but I found my sight was blocked by Jackie who sighed in relief and said "thank god you're awake, you had me worried, you've been unconscious for two minutes, now Al' do you trust me?"
I was starting to get worried so I had trouble finding my voice but I finally managed a weak " I do"
"Then please stay down Alex, stay down" she said as tears flowed down her face, that only made me want to get up even more but as I tried to get up thinking that somehow Mrs Stillson has gotten injured I felt the pain and almost fell unconscious again.
Do you know what it feels like to have your thigh ripped of with a white-hot rod? Because that is how i felt It was like someone had used a fire ball to take out a chunk of my thigh, I almost cried out but Mrs Stillson told me to stay quiet, she pulled out a stick like the one Mrs Stillson had and warned me "this is going to hurn so you better lay back" she said and then she pointed her stick and the pain was too much so I just passed out.
I woke up a while later and found that the chunk that was missing from my thigh was back, I tried getting up but then Jackie, who was sitting on plush purple chairs and talking to Mrs Stillson next to a blazing fire at the fire place, noticed that I was up and then came and sat next to me, she said "Don't get up yet, how are you feeling?" "Better, but it still hurts a little" I replied
"it should after what you have been through, I lost you there for a second but you woke up when she started crying" said Mrs Stillson while pointing at Jackie.
"where are we? what's going on? What happened back at the orphanage and who were those two guys? Why did they attack us and what were they using?" I rambled on asking questions that I wasn't sure I wanted to know the answer to. "I asked the same thing but she said she will explain when you're up" Jackie explained
"it's true and now that you're up I should explain, you too weren't left behind, we asked that you two stay behind so we can explain but we were too late" she explained "you two are the only two of your kind and the fates put you two together, you two are the first recorded cases in which a child has both a godly parent and a magical parent"
Jackie and I shared a look like I think she's turning crazy but she continued "why do you think those two guys attacked the orphanage, they tried to destroy the only two people that would be able to join both worlds and hopefully ruin their plans."
"Who's plans?" I asked
"no one knows who they really are, and please don't interrupt me there's no time" she continued
"and you know our parents, why didn't you take us to them when you could" Jackie interrupted angrily.
"Because I can't, now don't interrupt me again" said Mrs Stillson sounding annoyed "both your magical parents were killed right after you were born, your mom (she said as she pointed at me) and your dad" while pointing at Jackie. "Now I know this is a lot to handle but there's no time so take a sec to understand this"
That was a shock to both Jackie and I and we were too stunned to speak, so she continued
"Your godly parents are not allowed to communicate with you because of a law that Zeus made"
"Zeus, the Greek god, so your saying that the Greek gods exist, now I know you're crazy" Jackie interrupted and I almost agreed with Jackie if it wasn't for the glowing red torches on top of her head
"Am I crazy, look up" said Mrs. Stillson "that right there means that your being claimed by the Greek goddess Hecate, the goddess of Witchcraft."
Jackie was freaking out but then she pointed over my head and said "why does Alex have a glowing swords and a pigs head flying over his head?" which made me jump up even faster and made the pain comeback.
"That would the sign of Ares, the god of war. It's a little weird that you both get claimed at the same time but you two are a weird mix so…"
"Wait what are you saying that my dad was a magician and my mom is Hecate the goddess of magic and that Alex's mother is ALSO a magician but his dad is the god of war. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME" Jackie said as she got up
"I wish I was but I am not, as you've seen with your own eyes you have both been claimed, normally you would be sent to camp half-blood when monsters start to attack or to Hogwarts when you turned eleven but as you two had no idea who you were or the fact that there is no time to teach you both ways of life, we'll have to use a special way to teach you, a way that I can't help you with, for this you'll have to seek out two other people to help you, the first of which said he shall meet us here tomorrow so rest up and we'll continues this tomorrow."
Jackie and I stayed up all night talking about all the crazy stuff that had just happened which made it easier for us to eavesdrop into the conversation that Mrs. Stillson was having with what seemed to be a shimmering rainbow floating right in the middle of the room, usually that would be weird but today it was like our brains couldn't get more shocked than they already were.
"I have to leave now but I placed a protective charm around the building so they're protected, and when you get here they will probably still be sleeping so don't freak them out. I am there protector so I would like to be told when you're finished with their education so that they can get in touch with their other side as soon as possible."
"But the teaching usually takes years of training, hard work and pain to become fully trained in the Greek ways, all that information at ones may be too much for them, Are you sure about this?" said the man she was talking to.
"I realize this might be hard but it must be done if we have any chance of surviving. They are both about to turn 16, Alex has been claimed by Ares while Jackie has been claimed by Hecate " Mrs Stillson continued.
"They are both very powerful and you really have to keep an eye on them as they still haven't experienced any of their powers. I have to leave but keep me up to date."
Then she walked up to us and said "I am sorry children but I have to go now, you will be safe and we will meet again just remember to have each other's backs till the next time we meet."
With that she walked away and Jackie and I tried to get as much rest as we can.
