One thing about the new mortal in camp, Percy was going definitely love this girl. Of course he loves Annabeth more. The girl loves water, fishes and all. He liked the way her face brightened up at the mere sight of the body of water. It was like she was also a child of Poseidon.
"So, I'm-" he was about to introduce himself but the girl beat him to it.
"Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon." She grinned and gave him a hand "I'm Corinthia Coast, a quite close friend of Sally and Paul back in Manhattan."
He shook her hand and gave her a look of confusion "How did you know- Oh did Mom told you?"
"Not quite, it was the other side who told me." She hummed and looked at the sky. "Pretty sky, nice lake, friendly environment… it's like a perfect place!"
"Well, if the ones living aren't ADHD and chased by monsters… why not?" he smirked and she laughed heartily at him.
Yeah, he definitely likes this girl. They had talked about Paul's bad habit of falling asleep while working on his grading sheets, the activities in the camp and Percy had promised her to take her in a tour after the breakfast at the dining pavilion. He gave it a thought how come she knew about his parentage when he noticed how the girls observes her surroundings. She might get well with Annabeth, she seemed to know a lot of stuffs.
Percy took a good look at her. She was dressed… simply. Very simply for the mortal girls he had known. The girls had been... rather decorative with themselves, additional clothing, extra accessories, damn even Percy wishes to have at least a piercing. But the girl was just wearing a shirt, jeans and added with slippers. She was like 'I'm-clothed-and-covered-does-anything-matters-after?' .
"Hey, heard that you somehow trained and got the three kid demigods away from monsters, how did you do that?" he asked, completely curious.
The mortal stared at him and looked up to the sky "Blessings from their mothers I guess, and with the help of past lessons of self-defense plus gods orders where to live and when to escape. Pretty much it was that way…"
"I thought the gods aren't allowed to take part in their children's life unless they already know they are their parents?"
"Well, let's say the gods owe me big time." She said with a smile that covers everything up. The sea god's son saw through it. The smile of her was masking everything of her past and the gods with her. He simply wondered how come it was a teenager who took care of them instead of the usual adult like their relatives. "Further questions are to be explained by your father."
"Huh?"
Soon they heard the door in the cabin open and revealed three curious/glaring-at-Percy kids. Corinthia giggled at the sight and urged them to come closer. The kids immediately ran to her side and Azure made sure that he was sitting between Percy and Corinthia, for some reason he felt at home. He wondered if it was because of the lake before him.
"Hey guys, what's up?" she asked them, cuddling Bianco and Nero. For once she was surprised that Azure wasn't by her lap, since he was the one who always get to be clingy at her. She glanced at Azure who was intently staring at Percy and the other did the same at the kid. At the realization, she gaped at them.
"Does this fish guy hit on you, Mama? " Nero asked rather in a cute strange way but it promised hell.
"Should we give him the same treatment as we gave to the guys last Valentines?" Bianco added, glaring at Percy. His eyes seemed to glow with electricity. Percy tried not think that it was what he think it is.
Percy tried not to get offended by the fish remark, if possible should he feel complimented since it's related to his father? Or possibly he smells like fish since he just took a dip earlier. He didn't know so he tried to focus on the only kid who hasn't given him remarks. The kid looked like a mini him, only Asian. He stared at the sea green orbs that the kid held and was getting lost to it.
"Oh looks its Lord Poseidon's sons!" he heard a naiad.
Sons? Plural? He tried not to think hard on how on Hades why the naiad had called Percy in plural form.
"Hey Perce, Azure wanna know something wicked?" Corinthia suddenly said, almost making the staring duo jump from surprise.
"What is it?" It scared Percy on how synchronized he was to the kid.
"Your siblings, Poseidon's of course."
It made both of them gaped at her with wide eyes. It was so comical that the mortal wanted to have a picture at it, run and laugh at it somewhere without both of the Poseidon's offspring could see her. But she wanted to kind of ensure her life so she grabbed the two kids on her lap and run before the two sea god's sons could make a move.
Then it clicked through him. That's why he looked the same as him, he was Poseidon's son all along.
Well, Brotherly stuff here xD
I order you to review *wink*
