Hi! This is set after the war with Gaea and Percy and Annabeth got immortality. And so did all the seven but Leo. And Leo died. So sorry. It breaks my heart but yeah, Leo is long gone. (:::) - Cookie for Reviewer and (:::) cookie for Follower. I own nothing.
"Here we go, Thalia's tree!" I say. I grin. I missed this place. I remember playing hide and seek with my younger siblings.
"Who's Thalia?" asks Kate. Oh yeah, she wouldn't know would she?
"Thalia is Zeus's daughter." I say grinning.
"One, don't do that. Two, just because she's Zeus's daughter she gets a tree?" Kate asks. Don't do what? What am I doing?
"One, don't do what? Two, she was fighting a pack (would you use something else?) of Cyclopes, when she was almost dead, Zeus took pity on her and turned her into a tree!" I say.
~ Kate's POV ~
So she's a tree? I wonder what would happen if a dog pees on her tree? Would lighting strike down from the sky?
"So she's a tree? Does she age? Who are her friends? Did they make it safely to camp? Are the other gods allowed to do that? How did we know that she was a daughter of Zeus?" I fire my questions rapidly.
"No, not now. She was a tree. She didn't age. Annabeth and Luke are her friends, but Luke is dead. They did make it to camp. I don't know, and she could summon lighting strike so we knew that way." Kristen answers my questions. She could summon lighting!? That would be so cool to d-
"Look out!" I turn my head to the voice and I see some horses with wings running this way, then right before they hit me and Kristen they spread their wings and take to the skies. A boy comes running up panting.
"Hey –gasp- sorry –gasp- about –gasp- that." Says a boy with black hair. I look at his eyes and they're green swirls that move. They look cool.
"Sorry, the Pegasuses (Pegasi?)Was spooked by something." Says the boy finally catching his breath. Meanwhile my mouth is wide open and Kristen is smiling at me. I look to her.
"What. Was. That?!" I scream. They were horses but they had wings and they flew. And they flew.
"They had w-wings b-but t-they were h-horses a-and they flew!" I shout. Then I sit down. I don't know why but I do.
"How?" I ask. They have wings. Why do they have wings? They can't. It's impossible! I can't believe it. I won't believe it.
~ Kristen's POV ~
"How?" She asks while sitting down. She looks up at me. I look at her eyes, and her eyes are watering up. Crap. She's refusing to believe. I bite my lip. I don't know what to do! Ugh, why must my life be complicated?!
"How what?" Asks Percy. (This is after the war with Gaea and let's just says that all the Seven were granted immortality and this time Percy accepted because he had Annabeth.) Kate looks to him and says, "H-how is it p-p-p-p-"Possible?" I interrupt her.
"Yes." Dang. She sounds so broken.
"Well, when two Pegasus like each other very much-Percy!" I interrupt him.
"What?! She asked!" He says defensively. I roll my eyes and look at Kate.
"Come on. Let's go see Chiron and Mr.D," I say.
Such a pretty line break don't you think? ~ ~ Kate's POV ~
"Why not you?! Any other normal kid would kill to be a demigod! Why don't you like it?!" He shouts at me, snap my eyes open, and he's looking at me as if I'm crazy, which is most likely true. I narrow my eyes," I want to be normal! I want to be the stupid love sick girl next door! Well, not you're next door. But you said from this point on I will always be attacked from this day forward! I. Don't. Want. To. Be. Here! I. want. To. Go. Home. I don't want to be a demigod and in case you haven't noticed I'm not normal." By this time I was on my feet with him, my back as straight as a board, (She's unnaturally tall…) I was eye-to-eye with Percy, and my chest was heaving. He seems a little startled at my outburst but I could care less right now.
"This. Is. Home." He says in a weirdly calm voice.
"Home is where the heart is," I say in the same tone shaking my head," My heart isn't here, it never has been here and it never will be here." Pop! Pop? What went pop? Did my head pop off? No cause then I is not alive and I'm still standing with Percy and it sounded to the left of me. So, I do the natural thing. I look to the left and I see a very tall man with someone standing next to him a little bit shorter. The short one really needs to cut back on the food and needs to get a new wardrobe. He has a bottle in one hand and I think its wine. The taller man looks better than the shorter one in the face but they are both very old. I look to the shorts of the shorter man and they're khakis. I look at the tall man's legs. And they're horses. All I see darkness.
~ I love line breaks. Don't you? ~I had a weird dream full of barnyard animals. Most of them wanted to kill me. The rest wanted food. I must've woken several times, but what I heard and saw made no sense, so I just passed (If you know what I'm doing (::) for you!) out again. I remember lying in a soft bed, being spoon-fed something that tasted like buttered popcorn, only it was pudding. The girl with curly blond hair hovered over me, (If you know where I got this, (:) small cookie for you!) smirking as she scraped drips off my chin with the spoon. Okay I'm going to stop now. This is from The Lightning Thief chapter 5 where Percy meets Annabeth for the first time and, well, Kate's NOT Percy so here's the real thing.
"Will she be ok?!" I hear someone say. It sounds like Kristen. I would open my eyes but I can't.
"I'll be okay if someone will tell me what's going on? Where am I? And who are you?" I say as I bring up my hands to wipe my eyes.
"Kate, you passed out onto Percy when you saw Chiron. You're in the infirmary and its Kristen, Percy, and Annabeth." Kristen says. Infirmary? What is that? Like a medical center?
"Hey Percy?" I say.
"Yes?"
"F you." Laughs. Yay, I'm a comedian! Note the sarcasm.
