Okay here goes and if it's a sucky chapter, blame it on writer's block!
CURSE YOU WRITER'S BLOCK!
I don't own PJO if I did I would keep it all to myself and make millions of dollars, unfortunately, that's Rick Riordan's job. I do not own Poptarts or Hershey's chocolate milk either.
In this fiction, Kronos is dead and Luke is still working to take down the gods he hates.
I Make Friends with Lightning
I woke up like a regular day. Except something was wrong. I couldn't put my finger on it. Then I realized, it was too quiet. I looked to my bed stand. My alarm clock read 5:30. That's why it was quiet! It was early. I usually didn't wake up this early. Oh well, I thought, I might as well get up.I finished my shower and put on some clothes. I ate a strawberry Poptart and drank some Hershey's chocolate milk from the bottle. Alexis had snuck some food for me. I didn't know how and I didn't want to. I decided that I might fight some monsters in the woods to pass the spare time. And I wanted to train so next time, I could beat Percy. The woods were foggy but that was okay, I could see like an eagle, twenty feet ahead of me was no problem. I thanked my dad that I had such good vision. I couldn't find any monsters to fight. I guessed they were still sleeping. I sat down by the river and stared around hoping that I could find some water monster or something.
I heard rustling in a nearby bush but it didn't sound like a monster. Maybe one of my fellow campers had had the same idea that I did.
"Hello?" I said.
Immediately the rustling stopped.
"Are you a camper?" I asked a bit more loudly.
Someone stepped out of the bushes. I had never seen him before at camp. But I dismissed that. He had a scar on his face. His eyes were blue and they looked like they had gone through a lot of pain and suffering.
"Who are you?" I asked.
"I'm a child of Hermes."
"So you're a camper?"
He didn't answer.
"Are you the daughter of Zeus?" He asked.
"I have a name." I responded.
He laughed. I couldn't see what was so funny but I stopped looking because suddenly a monster appeared behind , it wasn't a monster, it was more of a skeleton person.
"Watch out, there's a monster behind you." I said through gritted teeth.
I slowly unsheathed my sword. But this guy didn't seem bothered by the fact that there was a monster breathing down his neck. I wondered distractedly if skeleton's even breathe.
He stopped laughing and unsheathed his sword. It was long. Very long. It seemed to be double-sided. One side was celestial bronze and the other looked like plain metal. Except the weird thing was that he was looking at me as if he wanted to kill me, not the monster. That's when the monster jumped. He jumped straight over the guy in front of me and attacked me. He had a sword that was roughly five feet long. I had to back up a lot to not get shish-kebabed. He grazed my arm letting fresh blood run all over it. I was no match for him. He just kept coming and I didn't have enough energy to hit him. And even if I had, I had a feeling that this guy wouldn't disintegrate. He was all bones. Everywhere I stabbed went right through him. Even more uglies came and circled me. I couldn't possibly fight so many, much less one. Soon I was knocked to the ground with a sword to my throat. Suddenly I felt a rush of energy like all my blood had turned to coffee and my bones had turned to sugar. I didn't know what I was doing, like I something was possessing me, moving my body for me. I kicked the sword out of it's hand and jumped up. I punched a guy in the nose and kicked one in the gut but I was still overpowered. There were fifteen of them, for crying out loud! I raised my hand's to the air and quickly brought them down. The Hermes kid didn't look too happy. In a bright flash fifteen lightning strikes stroke each one of the skeleton's surrounding me. They crumpled to dust leaving a stunned scar-boy looking at me.
"Your Luke Castellan," I said. "The traitor."
"I haven't seen powers like yours since-"
"Thalia," I said. "And you poisoned her tree, she sacrificed her life for you and you didn't give a Styx."
Thunder rumbled.
"Come join us." Luke said.
"No." I refused.
"Then I'm sorry I have to do this." He said.
I felt a giant fist come down on my head and I blacked out.
Not my usual over a thousand words but still pretty good. I was about to ask you guys what quest should she go on but decided that she wouldn't get a quest. Just wait. It's going to be awesome.
