AU: Thanks to everyone that's reading my story!
Kami's POV
I don't know how I felt. There were a whirlwind of emotions inside of me. I didn't know if I trusted the Nico kid. He scared me, but sort of reminded me of Michelle. The cute boy, the one with sea green eyes, aka Percy, was obviously Annabeth's boyfriend. I liked Annabeth. I hoped that I was Annabeth's half-sister. We probably were, seeing as we looked almost the same.
We were sitting in the waiting room again with the leopard head when it happened. An owl flew in through the open window and landed on my shoulder. I pet it softly. Everyone was looking at me.
"What?" I asked, questioning their stares.
"Uh, you've been claimed," Percy said slowly, as if saying it was bad.
I ran through all the owl-related things in Greek mythology, "By Athena?"
"Obviously, I mean it's not really a surprise," Ananya said in a duh tone.
"She's right. I mean from what I can tell, Kami, you're a big nerd," Wow, thanks Nico, I thought.
Chiron entered the room and said, "I heard an owl, who was claimed?"
"I was," I spoke up.
He looked at me for a second, "I suspected it, but didn't want to say anything until we knew for sure."
There was a flash of light, then someone showed up. She was dressed in armor over a Greek chiton. She had curly blonde hair and grey eyes that looked at you like she would blow you to bits that second.
"Athena…Mom..." Annabeth trailed off.
I quickly knelt. "Lady Athena."
Everybody else knelt, except for Percy. He was standing up right next to me, staring at Athena distastefully, and I attempted to pull him down.
"Percy, kneel down!" Annabeth hissed. She wrestled him to the ground.
"Annabeth, stop it!" he growled.
"You may all stand." Athena said, giving a piercing look to Percy, who stared directly back at her.
"Kamrynn, my daughter," she looked directly at me, "step forward."
I did as I was told, "My lady, forgive me, but why have you come?"
"To talk to you and give you a gift," she said simply.
"Mother-" Annabeth was cut off by Athena.
"I will deal with you later, Annabeth," she gave Annabeth a piercing look, quite similar to when I greeted Percy, Annabeth, and Nico, to which she shut up, "Moving on, Kami, I want you to know that I have been watching you. I have helped you and your father much more than you can imagine. I also want you to know, you have the potential to be great, but one wrong move and you will be the laughing stock of Olympus. So choose carefully."
I was confused, which didn't happen much, "What do you mean? How did you help my father and I? You left us!" I demanded.
"I gave you and your father money monthly, because unlike some godly parents, I care about my children," she was looking directly at Percy, whose father was Poseidon and hated Athena.
"That was from my grandfather!" I protested.
Athena snorted, "Please, you think that your school tuition was cheap enough for your grandfather to manage?"
It was true, the school was extremely prestigious. Michelle got in because her step-dad was a lawyer and could handle it, Ananya got in because her birth mom had funded it, her birth mom was kinda rich. But my family, it wasn't like that for us. But I wouldn't trade the world for my dad, he was the only one that I could go to.
My mother knew she had won, "Moving on, remember my warning and now it's gift time!"
"Gifts?" Percy drew back.
"Only for Kami, but you can watch," she got out a big bag, "Okay, first, we have this!" She pulled out a necklace with four small beads, "Each bead contains something you need, like nectar, ambrosia, water and a spare knife, but it can only supply you with these things ten times, if you want a recharge, you have to ask me. Next, we have this," She pulled out a ring, "it turns into a dagger or bow and arrows, depending on what you do. If you press the right gem down, it becomes a bow and arrows, if you twist the middle gem, it becomes a dagger and shield."
I smirked at Percy's shocked expression. "Thank you, Lady Athena." I bowed gratefully, taking the necklace and ring from her hands, and putting them on.
"You're welcome. Annabeth, come with me, we need to talk," she and Annabeth walked out the door.
I turned around and faced my friends. We admired the gifts as Percy and Nico walked out.
