Yo people!
So very sorry about the time lapse and the fact that this chapter basically tells you nothing but hey! With school and homework and the fact that we had two projects that we had to work on, be glad we uploaded when we did.
This is a quick summary of what you should know before you read our story. This is important: if you have read Fang and The Heroes of Olympus, you don't have to read the next bit.
So this is a brief summary of what you need to know:
First: Fang has left the flock
Second: Max and Fang are dating
Third: Dylan is Max's 'perfect mate' though we're not sure what that has to do with the story yet
Fourth: Since only Penndag has read The Heroes of Olympusthis fanfic is set after the demigods defeat Gaea because you know that they will defeat her
Fifth: There most likely will not be any big indicators to The Heroes of Olympus but some characters will be there
Thank you for reading our abnormally long author's note here is the story:
Chapter 4
We landed a few miles away from Camp looking for the nearest hotel. After leaving the three tall ones, um Max, Iggy, and Dylan, and the short one, Nudge, with a hundred bucks we headed back to camp with the two short ones, Angel and Gazzy. I realized that was the shortest quest out of all the ones I've had. I also realized there was one thing that kept me hypnotized the whole time when we were landing. Fang was part of the flock. That meant Fang was 2% bird, 49% god, 49% mortal. Annabeth, Grover, and I were shocked. We had to tell Chiron.
We got off our Pegasus. I ran to the Big House, bumping into Chiron. I was breathing heavily.
"What's going on?" asked Chiron.
"Fang," still breathing heavily, "The important people were supposed to pick up know Fang. Fang is 2% bird too." I finally said.
I was waiting for something like "What?" but it didn't happen. All Chiron did was nod his head and say: "That makes sense."
That's just strange, because I can't see anything that makes sense in this whole situation.
Annabeth ran to me and Chiron.
"This totally makes sense, Percy. How did Hades know that there were some special guests we had to pick up and take to camp? It was Fang who told him! Fang knows this because he was once part of the flock," said Annabeth.
I was getting kind of dizzy, but at least now things ate totally straight.
We went back to where we landed and where we left our guests. Everybody was surrounding them and asking questions at them.
Suddenly, there was green light above of Angel and Gazzy's head. The sign was in Greek. We all knew what that meant. There was a silence for a while, and then the crowd started cheering. I was really surprised. That was…I think pretty cool. I mean now, I have a brother who is a Cyclops, and two other siblings who are 2% bird, 49% god, 49% mortal. Man, I was confused, surprised, and a little jealous all at the same time. The jealousy was because I was kind of mad that they got to have flying abilities and I couldn't at the same time with god powers, which they also had. I just thought it was kind of unfair.
It was almost time to eat dinner, so everybody rushed to the tables where every demigod has to sit at their own table. Gazzy and Angel sat with me and Tyson, who was on vacation. Tyson was actually pretty excited having some more brothers and this time even a sister. Angel and Tyson were playing "Down by the Banks".
During dinner Angel informed us of her and her brother's more interesting talents. "…so we're all sitting there and there's this huge boom and Gazzy was surrounded by a huge green cloud, and it smelled awful!" she enthused while shoving piles of pizza down her throat.
"…and remember that time we were in New York and you mind controlled a lady to buy you Celeste!" Gazzy said.
Now I was really jealous. I mean really, how come they got all the cool talents like mind control and explosive farts.
Then I heard something in my head, "It's not all that great you know. We spent the first seven years of our lives being experimented on by the School. The other seven were spent searching for safety. Your lucky you have a mom, and that you actually talked to daddy. I hope I get to some day." Angel said lightly. While she was talking, I could see her memories, fighting monsters, running from danger, raiding dumpsters for food. My life wasn't perfect but it was a whole lot better than theirs, and suddenly, I didn't envy them anymore.
Then something clicked. I remembered Fang talking about a dream he once had.
Flashback
I was sitting next to Annabeth, Grover, Juniper, Nico, Thalia, and Fang. He was talking about his dream. "… and there were monsters everywhere," he said in his usual dead monotone, but we'd known him for about two months and could read him well enough to tell he was worried, "Then the scene opened up, because before I could only see the monster I was fighting. Now I could see everything. I was at the School."
He'd talked about the school before. He said that he'd been raised there, and that it was an research institute. His mother was a prostitute who didn't want him and Hades, his father, hadn't known he existed, so she sent him to her sister, one of the School's leading scientists. Her name was Sicily Dryden, and he hated her and her stupid son.
"I could see half-bloods fighting all over the place," he whispered.
"It'll be okay!" Juniper said with a smile, "it'll all be fine!" but Fang just smirked and said nothing
Present time
"Hey Seaweed Brain!" I heard a bunch of sharp clicks, "Percy! Percy! you coming?" Annabeth said. I realized that I'd been sitting there for ages while Tyson, Angel, and Gazzy stared and me while Annabeth snapped her fingers under my nose.
"Yeah," I said, my voice shaking slightly, relieved that everyone respected my privacy enough to leave me alone.
Well, except for Annabeth, who cornered me as soon as we left the dining pavilion. "What's going on Seaweed Brain?" she asked with a glare.
"Remember the day before Fang left for his quest?" I asked. When she nodded, I continued. "He said he was raised by the School, and how he saw us getting massacred fighting against monsters. Angel said that her family was also raised in the School. Do you think this is who we're looking for?"
We really really really hope you guys really really really like our story so far, so keep expecting us to write some more, cause you gotta keep reading to get to the exciting parts.
