Chapter 21: Percy

I watched Annabeth and Thalia half guide, half carry Allison away. I just stood there, frozen, not knowing what to do. That was until Chiron came up silently behind me and made me jump slightly when he said, "They will take care of her, they feel the same need to protect her as you do- albeit a little weaker. Although I do suggest that after a little while you go relieve them. But until then you and I should talk."

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Surely you have questions, why don't we start with them."

"Okay, did you know about Allison's sister?"

"I had a theory, but I can only guess the details. That is where you come in; you must get her to tell us. It is imperative that we know exactly what went on." I nod slowly.

"How did you get the theory that she had a dead twin?"

"I didn't know that she was dead, and her being a twin was only likely. But Allison's sword is made of ceremonial silver."

"And…" I say with what Annabeth calls my 'cutely dumb' face.

"Yes, right. You wouldn't know about it, in fact only a handful of demigods do. It is said that in extremely rare cases a god will grant a hero a weapon made out of it. It is usually for… let's say, talented demigods. These demigods have always been the result of a half-blood and one of the Big Three. Needless to say that usually never happens. The strange potency of their blood resulted that in every case there were twins. And in every case there was only one whom received the gifts from both of the parents; this one typically had even more valuable gifts than a regular half-blood. The other, unfortunately, only gained slight powers- usually from the demigod parent. The one who received both gifts was called the Serafeim or as they are better known, Seraph and they get the silver weapons. The other was called the Kidemonas or Kidemi for short. The type of weapon that they receive varies drastically and no pattern has ever been discerned. When I first met Allison it was obvious that she was powerful, but when I saw her sword I knew that she must be a Seraph."

"Umm, wow."

"Yes I know it is a lot to comprehend. But we need to know what happened to Noel- a monster could have killed her, a freak accident, disease, or a god. And if it was the latter that god probably still holds a grudge against Allison."

"And might try to kill her," I complete, "But what if she doesn't know?"

"Ah, I think that she does. You see what mortal doctors are calling 'twin telepathy' actually originated with the first set of a Seraph and a Kidemi. The legend is that in Ancient Greece there were twins, a boy- Kidemonas and a girl- Serafeim. They were the children of Zeus and a half-blood whom was the daughter of Athena."

"What happened to them?" I think that I know the answer but I have to ask.

"Well… one of the gods or goddesses sent monsters after them because they were too powerful. And it is rumored that whoever it was beat at least half of the other gods who were planning their own ways to kill them."

"So the gods don't like them because they are powerful?"

"Yes, there have only been myths about them. I've never seen one before myself, but I know from one of my sources in the Olympian Council that there have only been three sets of twins in almost 3,000 years."

"What happened to all of them?"

"One set in 263 B.C. were killed before the age of two. Another in 419 A.D. died within a day of birth. And finally a pair in 1348 A.D. were not so coincidentally the first deaths in the Black Plague. Then obviously the Big Three made their pact and so no more were born."

"Until now."

"Yes, until now," he agreed.

"So what do we do?"

"Keep her safe, make her feel loved here Percy. If what Annabeth has told me about Gaea trying to control her is true, and I have no reason to believe otherwise, we must show her that she has family here. I know I don't have to tell you this but be her older brother, show her how to use her powers. I can tell you are already protective of her; you didn't even want her to go off with Annabeth and Thalia. Annabeth already sees her as her younger sister, which in a way she really is. Let her do it, Allison will need to learn how to use her gifts from her mother's side better. Let Thalia become closer to her as well, she's already warmed up to Allison- which was surprisingly quick, we both know how Thalia can be. Allow her to make friends here at camp, Zeus knows that she is popular enough already." A slight rumble could be heard in the distance. I guess Zeus didn't like being reminded that his brother broke the oath, let alone had powerful twins. "Alright, any more questions?" I shake my head. "I think that it's time you go find Allison, I'm guessing that Annabeth and Thalia probably either brought her to your cabin or one of theirs. Dinner is in 45 minutes, be sure to bring Allison if she is feeling well enough. Poor child probably hasn't eaten all day. Tell Allison that with her permission I would like to ask her some more questions tomorrow, okay?"

"Will do Chiron."

"Oh and Percy? Let her call her mother, and I would suggest that you do the same." He adds the last part with a raised brow and I mentally kick myself. I've been back for almost a day and I still haven't called Mom, what kind of son am I? "Don't blame yourself; you've had a lot going on today. Maybe you could even introduce Allison to her, I'm sure both of them would like that."

"Thanks Chiron that's a pretty good idea." Chiron nods and walks back into the Big House.

…

After looking in both the Athena and Zeus cabin (in which I interrupted what seemed to be a very serious conversation about feelings between Piper and Jason) I walk up to Cabin Three. I knock on the door thinking just how ridiculous it was for me to be knocking on my own cabin door. Just then a glaring Thalia opens the door and I almost knock on her forehead.

"Watch out Seaweed Brain!"

"Sorry, can I come in?" Again it's my cabin but I really don't feel like getting into it with Thalia at the moment.

"I don't know…" she moves to shut the door in my face but stops when someone speaks up behind her.

"Thalia let him in," Annabeth says wearily.

"Fine," she mutters and steps aside to let me in. I step inside and see Annabeth and Allison sitting on Allison's bunk. Annabeth has her arm around Allison and there is a slight indentation on the other side of Allison witch I'm guessing was were Thalia was sitting a few moments ago. Allison's eyes are red rimmed and puffy, she looks at me with such sadness in her eyes that I want to hurt whatever or whoever is causing it.

"Are you all right?" I dumb question I know, but it needed to be asked. She gives me a slight nod and a small, watery smile. "Was it about your sister?" she cringes and I immediately feel bad for asking it. A few more tears fall and Thalia sits by her and squeezes her hand while Annabeth's grip on her shoulder tightens.

Allison takes a shaky breath and says," Yes."

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Percy drop it," Annabeth says warningly.

"No its okay, Annabeth. I should tell you guys, I shouldn't have worried you by crying."

"Allison, listen to me," Thalia's voice was gentle, "It isn't your fault, everyone cries when they lose someone."

"Not when it's been four years, even if that person was your twin. You deserve to know the reason why." The next 30 minutes were a blur to me. Allison told us the entire story, with her eyes shut and taking deep controlled breaths. She told us everything from Noel getting kidnapped to finding her charm bracelet (and a huge aquarium completely stocked with fish) in her room after the funeral. Apparently the note said 'I have failed. Use the gift wisely. P.S. The pink Anthias (his name is Einai) is a chatterbox.' Wonder who that was from I thought to myself sarcastically. When she was finished she kept her eyes shut so I took the chance to glace at Annabeth and Thalia. They both had tears in their eyes and were blinking furiously to try to clear them. I was both shocked and sad to though. How could someone suffer all of this at a young age and still be as kind and happy as Allison is today?

Just so you know the whole Serafeim (angels in the Bible) and Kidemonas (Greek for Guardian) was all made up sorry if you didn't like it BTW I value everyone's opinions ;) so share it...
