Chapter 7
Percy's pov
"Oh great he's not here."
I got a little worried because Kronos was planning on attacking tonight. The campers were getting there armor on then heading out while me and Annabeth found Alex. Where else did he go? Oh I know!
"Let's check the candy shop." I said
"Percy now's not the time to get candy." Annabeth scolded.
"No! My mom said he liked candy and also he said my mom was nice and never got to say goodbye." I said proudly.
"Nice thinking Seaweed Brain." She said jokingly. "Lets go quick so if he is there he doesn't leave before we get there."
We then started running on the path to the candy shop.
Alex's pov
When I got to the door I hesitated before I went in. She will probably freak out when she finds out I'm not human. Although her son smelled like I was right next to the beach. Maybe he could be a son of Pontus Or most likely Poseidon. After that thought I walked in the store and she just happened to be at the counter. I grabbed a bag of gummy worms and walked up to the counter.
"Hello, did you get everything you need?" She asked without looking up.
"Yes I did." I answered.
She looked up at the sound of my voice.
"Alex! I thought you went looking for your brother in another area."
"Well I am, but I am leaving later tonight. I just wanted to say thank you for letting me stay with you and goodbye." I said. "And I have a question for you."
"And what would that be?" She asked uncertainty.
"What do you think of the gods? My guess would be you like Poseidon the best."
"What made you think he would be my favorite?" She questioned me.
"Well you smell like the sea. Also I know all about Percy being one of their kids. So is it Poseidon?" I asked.
"Yes it is. How do you know about the gods is one of them your parent?"
"My father told me about them, but no none of them is my father."
"Then who is it?" She asked.
I hesitated before I answered. "My fathers name is Chronos, but with a C and he is not the Titan Kronos with K." I answered.
She got pale at first then confused.
"Who is Chronos with a C?"
"Do you know about Gaea and Ouranus?" I asked.
"Yeah."
"Well they are primordials and Chronos is one of them." I answered."
"So your brother Icarus does he have the same dad as you."
"No. His dad is Aether primordial of light and upper air, Son of Chaos and is also Ouranos's dad." I answered.
"So he's not your brother." She asked confused.
"Well in a way he is."
Ding Dong. I looked over to see who was at the door to see none other than Percy Jackson. Great now he's come to kick me out of here too, then probably Manhattan as well. I looked at the ground.
"Well bye Sally." I said as I headed to the door.
I left the candy on the counter and walked towards the door.
"Wait." Yelled Percy.
I turned towards Percy and looked him in the eyes then I looked at the girl next to him.
"What" I asked.
"We need your help." Percy pleaded.
I looked at him confused what could I possibly do to help him.
"With what?"
"Well Kronos, the Titan is attacking Olympus and we don't have that much allies and you being the son of Chronos and all you could be a big help." Percy said.
"Percy, we came her to take him to camp to keep him safe not put him in…." The girl never got to finish before I interrupted.
"I help you, just as long as you help me find my brother afterwards." I said.
They both looked at each other before nodding their heads yes.
"Ok then we should get going the invasion will be starting soon" Said Percy
"Do you have a weapon you can use?" Asked Annabeth.
I shook my head yes and Percy had a small smile on his face.
"Ok let's go." Said Percy.
And we ran out the door and to the battle.
Please review and follow I would very much appreciate it.
