First Chapter: Peaceful Life? Never!
Year later, last day of Percy's senior year
Percy walked out of the school gates.
"Finally!" she exclaimed, "Freedom!"
A giggle behind her made her turn around and glare playfully at the figure.
"What so funny, Lyssa?" she asked her mortal-best-friend.
Allison- or Lyssa for short- just smiled. "You're so dramatic sometimes, school isn't that bad." she told her friend.
"You're saying that only because you are a gunius and you don't have ADHD like me." Percy told Lyssa, and then added "and you are the teachers' pet."
"I am not!" Lyssa protested.
"Whatever float your boat." Percy said with a smile.
The girls got out of school only to be stopped by Mathew, the most popular guy in school.
Most of the girls would kill to get his attention, but Percy knew he was an idiotic boy who tried to get into the pants of all the girls in school. He would succeed in it too if Percy didn't come to this school and was marked as his new target.
Even after being rejected by her time and time again, he didn't stop trying to ask her on a date. After a while he fallen for her and most of the girls hated her for "stealing their future husbant" and because of her looks. After all, at the age of 17 (almost 18) she was a beutiful girl, with her long wavy black hair and her big sea green eyes that was serounded by black long lashes.
Most of the boys were after her and flirted with her but she was oblivious to all that. The ones that asked her out- she rejected politely. Even Mathew who asked her too many times for her liking, she declined politely because her mother taught her to be polite and patient no matter what, and she tried to follow each one of her mother lessons even if she sometimes, erm, slipped. But they shuld have known better then bully her friends all of those times or test her patience. after all, if someone (let's call him A) asks someone else (let's call him B) something too many times the same thing, after B made his answer clear to A, then B will have to explode sometime.
Anyway, Mathew was standing infront of her, probably to ask her out, again. Percy sighed.
"do you want something?" she asked politely.
Mathew smirked and said, "I want you."
"Well, you can't get me, I'm my own person. Do you want something else, or can I go home now?" She asked little impatiently, you would think he learned that she didn't want to date him after the 100th times he asked her, and he asked her every day 5 times, and she still refused. Sometime she wondered if he really had something between his ears other then air. stopped thinking that way, she scolded herself, it's not nice. Remember your lessons with mom. She took a breath and waited for his answer.
"yes," he said, "I want you to date me."
Percy fought the urge to roll her eyes. "Mathew," she started gently," I don't like you,okay? And I already have a boyfriend."
She didn't realy had a boyfriend, but Mathew didn't need to know that, and it was the simplest sollution to make him stopped trying to make her his girlfriend. Percy hated herself for lying, but she knew it was nessecery.
Mathew looked a little saddened by her refusal once again, but shrugged and walked away.
"Since when do you have a boyfriend? Why didn't you tell me? Who is he? Do I know him?" Lyssa started firing questions playfully oncw Mathew was out of ear shot. They started to walk toward their houses.
"I don't have a boyfriend. I said it to get rid of Mathew, he was really starting to annoy me. Do you really think I wouldn't tell you if I had a boyfriend?" Percy asked her, fake hurt in her voice.
"You're right," Lyssa said,mock regret in her voice, "sorry."
"That's fine," Percy said, then she looked up and added, "That's where i'm leaving you. Remember, I can't see you over the summer, I go to my summer camp."
"I remember," Lyssa said, "but we'll keep in touch, right?"
"Of course, how can I not to?" Percy smiled.
Percy hugged Lyssa, and entered the house that was her mother and hers.
"Mom, I'm home!" Percy yelled and walked to living room.
"I'm in the kitchen!" Sally called back. "Wait for me in the living room."
Percy sat on one of the armchairs in the living room and waited. The living room was small. It had 2 armchairs and a couch. they were wrranged in an U shape. in the middle was a cofee table that was made from light wood. On the table were few magazines, TV's remote and bowl with fruit. The walls were in cream color with blue that twisted and swirled from one wall to another like waves. On the left wall were shelves with books, both in English and Ancient Greek. In fornt of the sitting area was big TV. There were 3 windows in the living room, on the left right and behind the sitting area.
5 minutes later Sally walked in with a man that looked a little older then her on her heels.
The man had black hair, the same shade as Percy's. He had dark blue eyes with speckles of gold, looking like the night sky. He looked vaguely like Sally, which made Percy assume he was some relative she had never met.
"Who is he?" Percy asked her mother curiously.
"This is my brother," Sally said, "but I need to talk to you."
the seriousness in her mother's voice made Percy straighten herself.
"What is it? Why didn't you told me had a brother? What is his name?" she curiously.
Sally sighed. "I couldn't tell you about him because it wasn't the time, But you're almost 18, so it's time for you to hear the truth."
"And that is?" Percy asked. 'what is mom talking about? The truth?'
"Yes, the truth, my little princess," Sally said sadly, as if she could hear Percy's thoughts, "I wanted to tell you, but it wasn't the time for you know the whole truth."
Percy looked at her expectantly.
Sally breath deeply, trying to calm herself down. Sally's brother put his hand on her shoulder, making her look at him. "Maybe it'll be easier if I am the one to tell this." He said calmly. At Sally's nod he turned to Percy, looked at her eyes and said, "Percy, your mother isn't a mortal like everyone thinks, she's far from it, and on your 18th birthday you will become immortal. If it's not enough, the powers you got from your mother's side will be unleashed and will cause big shockwave that can make series of nature disasters that can ruin Earth. But don't worry, If you come to your mother's palace in my city, then nothing like that will happen." He finished with a smile.
"But how will I make that happen? What and who my mother is if she's no a mortal?" Percy asked, confused and bewildered.
Sally closed her eyes, and in front of Percy her hair darkened into the same black hair Percy and her brother had, her face changed a little that she looked more like her brother, but not too much so people won't recognise her. When Sally open her eyes gasped when she saw it was the same color as her brother.
"What my brother means is that he and I are immortal - you'll turn into one on your birthday- and my name isn't Sally." Sally explained seriously, "My real name is Universe, and this is my brother Chaos, the creator of the universe- no pun intended." she finished with a smile.
