"Ever since the war?" I asked. Percy glanced at Thalia. "I thought you told them already!" He said. Thalia scowled, "Well, you could have told me!" She replied angrily. They obviously didn't like each other. Percy sighed and muttered something under his breath. I didn't understand it, but Thalia said, "What was that?" She asked suspiciously. Percy looked at me and then at her. "Nothing, Pinecone Face." Percy smiled when he said that. Thalia's eyes were blooming with anger and I noticed her fingers were tingling with electricity. No, lightning. "Next time you call me that, you will be sorry."Thalia warned. Percy smirked. "Ok, whatever." He shrugged his shoulders. Thalia turned away from him and walked fast to an archery range as I watched her shoot arrows at targets. Perhaps she was practicing to shoot Percy's head off with a teeny tiny arrow. I looked away and asked Percy, "So, you guys don't like each other?"
Percy replied, "Hell no, she's the most annoying cousin I have ever had."
"Oh, ok." I snickered. "We have to go to inform Chiron that they have finally arrived." Annabeth said. "Will you give Lucy and Sammy a tour and I'll take Phoebe and Danny with me."
Percy nodded in agreement. I looked at Phoebe and told her, "Well, at least it's not hell, but I love ya." Phoebe smiled and turned away to have their tour with Annabeth. I looked at Percy and he asked, "Um, guys, you know that we're siblings, right?" Sammy widened his eyes. "We are?"
"Yeah, you are my baby brother and sister." He smiled. Oh goody we have a big brother. Can't this get any worse or crazier? I thought. "No way." Sammy said. "Yeah, I know. I have always wanted a brother or a sister since I was little. But the whole time I actually had one." He chuckled. "Mom or Dad never told me." Then I exclaimed, "They're alive?" Percy nodded. "Oh my gods, I'm not an orphan!" I screamed.
I was so excited and immediately asked Percy questions about our parents. Sammy was excited too. Percy said, "I'll tell you later." I frowned.
We entered a place where armor and weapons were hanging around on walls and demigods were running and walking around, putting on armor and fetching swords and axes. "Ok, this is the armory, where you can fix any broken armor or weapons, such as swords and knives." Percy said. For no reason, I knew I had to listen to survive in this place since it looked like a training boot camp for killers like Chucky the killer doll or Freddy Kruger or worse, clowns. I hated clowns.
But I shoved that out of my mind. Percy took off his armor and hung it on the wall. He had a blue shirt on. Then he unexpectedly said, "Did Thalia give you guys a pen?" Sammy and I nodded at the same time. I took out my golden pen and clicked it. Suddenly, it grew into a three foot long sword. "Whoa, awesome." I said. The sword had four Greek letters on it and I could understand what it said. Of course, they transformed into English. It said: WAVE.
"Wave." I repeated. I guessed that was the name for the sword. Sammy exclaimed, "Mine is named Tsunami?" Percy and I laughed at the look on Sammy's face. "What?" Sammy demanded. Percy chuckled. "Nothing, little bro."
Sammy smiled and I asked, "So where will we be staying?"
Percy replied, "I'll show you later, besides we gotta go see Chiron."
Before I could ask who was Chiron, Percy left and we followed him. Everybody stared at us as we passed by. It was uncomfortable, but Percy didn't mind. Ugh.
We arrived into a field, where a horse was talking to a goat. What the hell?
I was completely confused. Talking animals? But as we got closer, it was actually a centaur and a man-goat. "Huh?" I muttered.
I exchanged looks with Sammy, but he just shrugged his shoulders.
The centaur was shirtless and his lower half was a horse's, but his other half was a man's. I asked the goat, "What are you, a hybrid goat thingy?" Then I told myself I should have shut up.
The man-goat glanced at me and laughed. "No, my name is Grover Underwood, Lord of the Wild and protector of half-bloods." He had curly brown hair and blue eyes. He had a shirt that said THE LORD OF THE WILD. Of course.
He had hooves and hairy legs. I wanted to say, Dude, you need to shave your legs.
But I kept my big mouth shut. "Right." I said. The centaur looked at me and widened his eyes. "Oh my, are you Lucy Jackson?" I nodded. "Oh thank Zeus you got here safe!" He exclaimed. "I am Chiron." He had a clean shaved beard and a head full of hair.
"Me? I got here safe? That's what you think? Thalia nearly killed me and we were being chased by police for five seconds and you think I'm safe? I just learned I was the daughter of Poseidon an hour ago and I could become a snack for a monster any second!" I shouted angrily. I sighed frustratingly and Percy said, "Hey, sis, you won't be eaten here at Camp Half-Blood and it is completely safe."
I sighed again and looked at him out of the corner of my eye. "All right, but you have some explaining to do."
"I do?" Percy said, confused.
"Yes, Kelp Head." Chiron and Grover chuckled at the name. Percy scowled at me. I smiled and then frowned. "About our parents."
