Perseus The First Titan

by DarkStarSaber

Perseus was imprisoned for eons by his family. His mother, Gaea the Primordial Goddess of the Earth, unfairly imprisoned him as part of her plot to kill his father, Ouranos the Primordial God of the Sky. However, what happens when he is set free from his restraints and is able to walk the earth again?

3. Chapter 3

After a lengthy conversation, Iapetus, now known as Bob, and Damasen the Giant Bane of Ares, had grown to like Perseus as they saw he was a kind and gentle spirit who was imprisoned because of past mistakes and the greed of his own family.

Bob, having matured even more with the return of a lot of his memories, apologized profoundly to Perseus for his past and his wrong doings. The Titan of the sky eventually relented a small bit and thought for a bit then smiled, "There is nothing you can do to make up for what you've done, but I will at least tolerate your presence if you agree to journey with me to the House of Night to visit the Lady Nyx and her husband, Lord Erebus."

Bob paled and looked toward Damasen, who looked nervous hearing the names of two powerful Primordials. The Giant looked toward Perseus, "Be careful, they know whenever you say their names."

The Titan smiled, "Yes I am quite aware of that, they have known I was here since I defeated Tartarus. I'm sure of it."

The other occupants in the room were shocked for what felt like the tenth time that day. They had previously fought Tartarus and they felt as if it was like fighting a natural disaster, which was impossible. Somehow, Perseus had overcome the force of nature and had beaten down Tartarus, which was probably the reason why they had been freed from the soul prison in Tartarus' armour.

After a couple minutes, Bob and Damasen shrugged their shoulders and agreed to accompany Perseus on his mission to visit the Primordials.

A couple hours and a couple small battles with monsters later, the atmosphere began to dim at an alarmingly fast pace. Damasen, despite being one of the most skilled fighters in all of Tartarus, was constantly showing signs of nervousness. Perseus found it reassuring that even a Giant was capable of kindness and other emotions associated with mortals.

The group of three eventually got to a point where they could barely see a foot in front of each other. Perseus was about to conjure up a flame so that they could see better but he felt a pull in his gut and he lost his footing, falling to his knees.

The ground was not what he expected, he expected for the ground to be the rough, sharp rocks of Tartarus but he instead found a polished and cold floor. Perseus looked up and quickly identified his brother and Damasen right next to him, apparently feeling the same thing that he was.

A soft whisper floated toward them in the cool breeze that brushed against their faces. Damasen and Bob both started to shiver at the breeze but Perseus stood firm, being the Titan of sky meant he could also withstand intense low temperatures.

Somehow the place they were at seemed to get even darker until a lone torch lit up, offering light and warmth. Once the torch lit up, Perseus saw that he was in a large room with a polished black floor, black pillars going up to the ceiling and dissolving into black smoke right before the ceiling that looked like the night sky.

The whisper all of a sudden came back, but this time it was much more clearer than before. The voice whispered "Perseus".

Said Titan got down onto one knee, bowing his head to the darkness and said in a deep voice, "Lady Nyx, it has been quite some time."

Bob and Damasen, seeing what their companion was doing, followed suit in dropping to their knees and bowing their heads, whilst still shaking from the cold and probably a good amount of fear.

"Stand up my nephew," the voice, identified as Nyx said. Perseus then stood up slowly with his head still bowed to the ground. A soft and surprisingly warm hand then touched his shoulder and made its way up to his cheek, caressing it a bit. The hand then tilting Perseus' head up to meet the beautiful and wondrous eyes of Nyx. Her eyes were entirely dark with little stars glittering in them and white pupils that looked exactly like the moon would on a clear night sky.

Nyx, eyes glittering and a sly smile formed on her lips, she raised herself up a little bit and placed a small kiss on Perseus' lips. She backed away still smirking, "I've missed you so much Perseus. Come, give your aunt a hug."

Not wishing to disobey the Primordial in front of him, Perseus stepped forward and embraced his Aunt and closest friend before he was imprisoned. Nyx responded and hugged him back, releasing a sigh of contemptment in his arms. "I've missed you too My Lady," The Titan said with a small smirk.

He felt her smile slightly against his shoulder. "Oh please," Nyx said while still hugging her companion. "No need for titles at a time like this. I've missed you so so so much. I've never gotten over my grudge for Gaea for imprisoning you. The worst part of all was that she hid you from the rest of us, nobody could find you so after a couple millennia, we stopped looking. I'm so sorry."

Perseus let out a breath and a lone tear went down his cheek, symbolizing his longing for this kind of contact with his old friends. Although that tear was small in comparison to Nyx's reaction which felt like she was about to outright ball onto his shoulder.

After Nyx backed away, she looked at the two companions and materialized a blade made from the night sky and held it up to Bob's neck, tilting his head toward her. "I remember you," Nyx said in a sickly sweet tone. "You helped those two half-bloods enter through my palace."

She dragged the blade across Bob's neck, making him shiver with fear and at the coldness of the blade. "I'm surprised you aren't already dead, I would have assumed Perseus would have put you in your rightful place by now," Nyx continued in a less concealing tone, showing her distaste for the Titan.

The Primordial then lifted the blade from the Titan of Mortality's neck, turning her attention to the Giant. "I also did not expect an abomination like you Damasen. I heard Tartarus had trapped the both of you in his armour, care to elaborate on that and why you're here?" she asked in her normal silky but cold tone.

Damasen started to raise his head to try and look at Nyx but she moved the blade toward his face, forcing the Giant to continue looking down. He then took a shaky breath and grunted out in a slightly scared voice, "Perseus fre-"

He was then cut off by Nyx's blade getting closer to his throat. In her cold voice, she said, "Do not speak of him as your equal. You are nothing compared to him, you are an insignificant insect below a boot, his boot to be exact. Say his name correctly or I will slit your throat and toss your remains into the abyss of chaos."

The Giant actually began trembling as the entire room seemed to hum with power that seemed to be emanating from the Primordial Goddess. Perseus then interjected, "It's alright Nyx, Damasen has done no wrong and was wrongfully imprisoned by Gaea like I was. I respect him. Please allow him to speak his mind."

The Primordial of the night looked at Perseus for a little bit and then gave him a warm smile saying in a kind voice, nothing like what she used on her other two guests, "Your morals and kindness are still intact, even after so long. You may be too good for the world you escaped into." She lowered her blade and allowed Damasen to look up at her.

Seemingly forgetting how to talk for a second, Damasen just starred but then shook himself out of it and began his story again. "Perseus told us that he went to visit Tartarus, but apparently the meeting did not go as planned and they fought. Eventually Perseus won the battle and destroyed Tartarus' physical form, freeing all the souls from his armour. Me and" Damasen paused, still not used to calling his Titan companion Bob, "Bob here woke up in my hut. Perseus visited us and then kicked the crap out of us both, almost killing Bob, but we managed to talk things out and we are only here because Perseus is making us face our fears for the forgiveness of Bob."

Nyx turned to her old friend, "You are going to forgive him?! After everything he's done to you and your father?!"

Perseus sighed again, "Well, holding grudges isn't really what I'm known for, except against Gaea. And I will not be forgiving him right away, Iapetus, or Bob, whichever he wants to call himself at the moment, must earn forgiveness. However, I do not wish to speak to him any more than I have to, regardless of his changed personality."

The Primordial nodded her head in understanding and turned back toward the kneeling Titan, "You heard that right Titan? You are to not speak to him unless he seeks you out, got it?"

Bob then nodded his head furiously, "Yes My Lady."

Just at that moment, the room suddenly got darker then it was before and a being made out of pure darkness solidified into a form in front of Perseus. A dark laugh escaped the lips of the newcomer, "Perseus! Old friend! You have escaped your prison!"

The Titan of the sky smiled again and looked toward another of his old friends, Erebus, the Primordial of Darkness and Shadows, "Yes I have Lord Erebus, I have escaped my unjust imprisonment."

Erebus smiled, which looked about as sinister as a smile could get, but Perseus knew that it was one of happiness and his own version of warmth. "I'm assuming that my siblings Gaea and Tartarus' downfall was all thanks to you?"

Perseus smiled his lighthearted and brilliant smile, raising his hand to Erebus, allowing for the Primordial of darkness to grab it and give it a firm handshake, which turned into a hug really fast.

Afterward, Erebus looked towards the two other immortals on their knees and all happiness disappeared from his face. "It looks as if we have an infestation in this room," he said while summoning a wicked looking sword made from shadows. "Shall I exterminate it?"

"That is quite alright," Perseus said, placing his hand on his friend's shoulder. "Once we are out of Tartarus, I will leave them to their own decisions, and accompanying me here is part of their punishment."

Erebus did not look thrilled at letting a Giant and a Titan scum stay alive while in his presence but out of respect for his friend who he had not seen in millennia, he dropped his sword and watched as it disappeared within the ground.

He turned toward his Titan friend and looked him up and down again, "I must say Perseus, you have grown in power by a lot, although I can't determine the reason why."

"I'm not sure either, I'm assuming that it's because I haven't used my powers in a long time and I just escaped my prison," Perseus responded. He knew his power kept rising more and more, and he was starting to get suspicious of why that was.

Erebus nodded his head in thought, seemingly believing the explanation of Perseus' newfound power. "Now, will you be staying Perseus?"

"Unfortunately not," he responded. "I need to go find out what has happened with the other Primordials and I need to see how much the world has changed. I promise that I will come back and visit though."

"I sure hope so," Nyx said, walking toward her friend, swaying her hips and trailing her hands all over his body. "Perhaps we can have a little fun when you come back, just use the night sky, I'll be in touch." The Primordial of the Night winked and then disappeared into glittering black smoke, leaving Erebus and Perseus standing together.

Perseus blushed and rubbed his hand against his neck, "Pretty sure you'd thrash me if I did something "fun" with your wife Erebus."

The Primordial of Darkness shrugged in a casual way, "It is extremely hard for someone to live as long as we have and be completely faithful. Every once in a while we have the occasional fling with someone else."

"Oh," the Titan said, blushing even harder.

Erebus laughed, "Truely nothing has changed about you, still embarrassed over conversations around sex." His face then shifted into a more serious one, staring intently into Perseus' eyes, making him wonder what Erebus was going to say.

"Perseus," he said, starting to pace around the space they were in. "The Olympians are barely any better than the Titans were. Something must be done before they destroy this world beyond repair."

Sighing, Perseus ran his fingers through his hair, "I know Erebus, I was hoping I could change them before something bad happens."

Erebus snorted in slight amusement, "Good luck with that. My forces of darkness are ready to move and destroy Olympus now, as are several other Primordials, namely Pontus. Me and a couple others have reached an agreement and we think it is high time that the Primordials take the world back from their oppressors and right the wrongs they have committed. I would very much like it if I had your support in this matter, so I will let you think on this."

The Primordial of Darkness then turned toward the other occupants of the room who still looked like they were shaking from the fear and the cold, "And you two, if I find either of you anywhere near here again, not even Perseus can save you from my wrath."

Leaving the threat hanging he disappeared into dark smoke leaving both the Titans and the Giant in the room.

Perseus, not wishing to waste any time in his journey to see the world and the rest of his Primordial friends, opened a swirling portal in the middle of the room and gestured for Damasen and Bob to go in first.

"Where does this lead?" Damasen said, his voice still a little shaky from his experience with two Primordials.

"The surface," was the response he gave.

Bob wasted no time in rushing through the portal, but Damasen just stood there looking at the portal with a shocked look on his face. Perseus smirked, "Didn't think your trip to the surface would be as easy as this right?"

The Giant shook his head but eventually entered the portal as well. The bright sunlight blinded all three of them when they exited the portal. The fresh air, mostly clear skies, and the light breeze was enough to reduce Damasen to tears and was enough for Bob to relax after his encounter with the House of Night.

"Well, I wish you the best of luck out here Damasen and Bob," Perseus began. "I need to go find the other Primordials and I don't think they would appreciate either of you in their presence."

Perseus was about to walk away until he heard his younger brother yell his name. Bob told him of Camp Half-Blood and Camp Jupiter, the two demigod camps that defeated both Kronos and Gaea and how he should visit them at some point.

He thought about it, but he wasn't too thrilled to go and meet the Gods and their children. Sure they were able to provide him with a distraction so that he could escape his prison but he also heard a lot of other disapproving qualities about them. Enough so that he wasn't planning on visiting them anytime soon, maybe in a year or two, he had to get caught up with the world.

The first thing that Perseus was going to do was to start a mortal life, he figured that the best way to learn about the mortal world was to be a part of it. He decided that since most of the action was going down in North America, he should get a place there. The Titan quickly read the minds of everyone around and found out all of the information he could about the modern world. He was currently in an area called Europe and to get to North America he would have to get on a mechanical contraption called a plane.

He quickly made his way toward where he assumed the nearest airport was. There were many checks he had to go through, some of them seemed quite unnecessary, he didn't think any human was so evil to bring a weapon on a plane with them. Nonetheless, Perseus complied with the wishes of the humans checking him. They asked him for different papers, none of which he had, but he just snapped and they let him pass.

Within the hour, he was on a flight to some place in the United States called Maine. He walked over to his assigned seat, number 32, and sat down. Luckily, he got a window seat so he could watch the land pass underneath of him as they flew over. Everybody was still putting their baggage above the seats when Perseus had noticed an older and fatter man grabbing the wrist of a young girl who looked as if she had been crying a lot recently.

As they passed by, the girl noticed Perseus' stare and mouthed the word 'help' to him. Unable to resist a plea of help, he stood up and followed the pair until they sat down. He waited until most of the other people sat down and then tapped the man on the shoulder as he sat down.

"Um, I think you have my seat sir," he said in fake confusion, looking down at his paper with the number.

The fat man turned around and sneered at him, "Get lost boy."

"No sir," Perseus said, narrowing his eyes at the man. "That is my seat and I would appreciate it if you left."

The man stood up and glared at Perseus, which looked like an amusing sight, a medium height man trying to stare down someone else who was much taller then himself. Noticing the man was already standing up, he snapped his fingers and watched as the man nodded his head and walked over to where Perseus' original seat was and sat down without a problem.

The Titan smiled in satisfaction and sat down next to the girl, "Are you okay?"

The girl seemed surprised that someone was actually helping her, she probably had never had any help before. She nodded her head and sniffled, taking out a small paper looking substance and blowing her nose. The girl closed her eyes and immediately went to sleep, like she hadn't gotten a good rest in a long time.

Smiling to himself he looked all around the plane and all of the people on it. In the middle of the aisle a box hung from the ceiling, on it was people moving around and talking. Many of the people were talking into smaller boxes or were staring at it, wiggling their thumbs around on the box.

Just from watching and listening, he was able to determine that these smaller boxes were called phones and the bigger boxes on the ceiling were called TVs. Apparently you could talk to other people anywhere in the world on them and a whole lot of other things.

Perseus was impressed, to think mortals could come up with something like this without the help of the Gods or any immortals. A voice then suddenly emanated from above him, a guy saying that he was the captain and running through a couple of safety procedures while on the aircraft. He decided that he would just take a little nap in his seat and then wake up when it was time to get off.

Eventually that time came and the girl ended up being the person that woke him up. She looked panicked so he immediately shook off his drowsiness and sat up in his seat. The girl quickly explained to him that she didn't want to go with her father and that she would basically be tortured as soon as they went into their hotel, where they were planning on staying. Perseus thought of anyway that he could help this poor mortal girl in front of him, maybe he could kill her father and just be done with it.

He shook his head, that wouldn't work at all, he would just be condemning her to a cruel fate that way. Perseus knew an abundance of spells, maybe he could wipe the man's memory of his daughter and change who he thought he was, then Perseus could impersonate him. That seemed like a good idea.

Perseus hoped that this spell would work, actually, he knew the spell would work, but he just wasn't sure if the man was able to withstand the spell. It was quite a possibility that this spell could shatter his mind, leaving him in a dazed state for the rest of his life. With reluctance, his eyes glowed white a little bit, shocking the girl, and snapped his fingers.

He was relieved to see that the man just got off of the plan without even looking back toward him and his companion. The girl looked relieved but at the same time really confused. "What happened?" she asked.

"It would be best for you to not know," Perseus said nonchalantly. They both got out of their seats and walked off the plan, the girl sticking close to him, at one point she even grabbed his hand and held onto it.

"What is your name, child?" he asked. The girl stayed quiet for a little bit, still holding his hand as they walked toward what Perseus assumed to be the exit. She said that she didn't have any bags so there was no need to stop anywhere.

She bit her lip and spoke in a shy voice, "Mira Jones". Perseus looked down at her and finally took the time to look at the young girl named Mira.

Mira had curly blonde hair and unnaturally pale skin, it was as if she should have had a tan but she was kept away from the sun. Her clothes were quite baggy like they were just picked out and thrown at her without any measurements at all. Mira's eyes were different then any mortal she had seen before, they were an astonishing grey colour and held a certain maturity that someone her age shouldn't have.

"That's a wonderful name. My name is Perseus," Perseus said with a gentle smile. Mira blushed and looked toward the ground. "How old are you?"

Mira looked up again, still blushing a bit, "I'm twelve."

"Alright Mira, do you know where you would have been staying? I'm afraid that I have no money and I am homeless," Perseus said.

Mira looked up at him in shock, "How are you homeless? You don't look homeless?"

Perseus chuckled, "Looks can be deceiving little one, for all you know, I could be a pig dressed up in human clothing."

She started to chuckle a bit before she released a contempt sigh and wrapping her arms around as much of his arm as she could reach. After a little bit she answered with a hotel name and a room.

He then asked a random person he saw where the hotel was and they pointed him in the right direction. The only problem was that apparently it was an hour long walk, Mira didn't seem too happy about it but Perseus was unaffected by the information at all. About halfway through the walk Mira asked for a break. Instead of getting a break, he asked her if he could just carry her the rest of the way, she agreed and Perseus picked her up in bridal style and began walking again.

When they reached the hotel, he carried Mira right in and then set her down next to him as he was greeted by someone at a desk. The hotel was modest, wasn't too flashy but it definitely wasn't run down at all. Acting as Mira's father wasn't as hard as he thought, he only needed to use a little bit of a spell to make a false ID and a couple other essentials that he needed.

Once in the room, which was about three stories above the ground, Mira jumped on the bed and immediately began to get under the covers. Laughing at the young girl's antics, he pulled up a chair and picked up a remote and pressed random buttons until the TV on the wall turned on.

"Are you really homeless?" Mira asked while still under the sheets of the bed.

He sighed, "Unfortunately yes, my family aren't exactly good people. I was kept away from society and technology for a long long time."

The girl then got out the bed and reached for the remote, pointing out all of the different buttons and what they do. She also gave him a tour of the entire hotel room, telling him information at a very fast pace that he almost couldn't keep up with. Mira seemed to be getting more and more comfortable as time went on, which made Perseus smile as he watched her drone on and on about how many things she could fit in a bathroom drawer.

He let her tire herself out and then he looked at the clock and saw that it was pretty late in the day. Seeing this, Perseus called out to Mira, "Alright, it's time for bed."

Not wasting a second, she climbed into the bed and nestled herself into a mess of pillows and blankets. He was about to turn out the light when Mira asked him to keep the light on until she fell asleep. Perseus smiled and nodded his head, watching as she slowly drifted off to sleep. Once she fell asleep, he turned out the lights and closed his eyes, surprisingly tired after the day's events.

He awoke to a scream. His eyes immediately drifted to Mira, seeing her thrash around in her sleep with sweat coming off of her. Not wasting even a second, Perseus rushed to her side and gently shook her awake. At first when she opened her eyes she scooted away from him, but then seemingly realizing who was in front of her, crawled over to him and hugged him.

Perseus pulled her on top of his lap and hugged her, whispering comforting things into her ear. They stayed like this for a while until Mira stopped hugging him, but still sitting in his lap.

"I had a bad dream," she said while rubbing her eyes.

"Do you want to talk about your dream?" Perseus asked her.

She nodded her head and took a deep breath, "I was on top of a mountain, then I walked into a cave and some chains wrapped around me and started to take me away."

He pulled her into another hug, rubbed small circles on her back, and told her it wasn't real and that it was just a bad dream, nothing more. He felt the girl smile against his chest as her breathing became slower and he felt her slowly drifting back off to sleep. Before she closed her eyes she took another deep breath and whispered, "Thank you dad". At that moment, she fell asleep again, leaving Perseus with a large smile on his face.

The next few days together, Mira helped Perseus look for a job. Using a couple spells to come up with a fake graduation certificate from a college he applied in a couple positions. He made sure that his job was flexible so that he could take Mira with him. Perseus knew that leaving her at the hotel room alone probably wasn't the best idea, she needed company. So he applied to a couple different jobs including a pilot, a flight instructor, and a few positions as a professor in college.

With all of the apparent "good grades" in college and with all his "experience" being in the air, he was hastily accepted as a flight instructor and as a college professor teaching climatology. His flight instructor job allowed for him to take Mira with him to his work because it was mainly just teaching a couple of people and then taking them on actual flights and simulations. Perseus' salary for that job was around $37,000 a year, he learned that it wasn't the absolute best salary for a job but he could work his way to getting a raise. He also did part time as a flight instructor because he needed a lot of time to get his other job done.

Perseus' climate professor job was a little different then a flight instructor, he got paid a lot more money, about $100,000 to be a professor. He would have Mira in the back of the room playing some games or sitting at his desk sleeping. Grading papers and tests were a pain in the butt; however, he sucked it up because he genuinely enjoyed the time he spent teaching about the weather and how the atmosphere works.

He didn't much care for the money but he recognized that he needed it to fit into today's society. Perseus also wanted to get his own house and give Mira the life that she deserved, there was a problem with that though. Mira was definitely a demigod, judging by how she reacted and how much she wanted to learn, he guessed that she was a daughter of Athena. He wasn't going to tell her and make her life worse than it already was though. Perseus had taken great care so that Mira could see all the good and bad deeds of the Gods.

As she got older, her scent became stronger, alerting more and more monsters to their position. He never let the monsters anywhere near Mira though as he didn't want her to worry about it.

After a year or two of living in hotels and small apartments, Perseus bought a pretty big house in a very nice looking neighborhood. He had been granted full custody of Mira by a court because it turned out that both her mother and father were missing, leaving her without a guardian.

Rhea, Selene, and Helios also stopped by quite a few times to hangout at his new house. They filled the roles of Rhea being an Aunt and Selene and Helios being Mira's older cousins.

The relationship between the two of them had been absolutely wonderful, Mira seemed to finally feel at home with Perseus and she loved being able to live her life like a normal kid. She was enrolled into a nearby school and she made a lot of friends that sometimes stopped by their house to play games or hangout. Mira didn't like leaving her dad but she knew that it was necessary.

However, the peace they had didn't last as one day, the bus that Mira normally took home, never came to the neighborhood. They didn't have any cell phones in the house because he knew what kind of danger that could put his daughter in. There was one phone in the house though, only Perseus used it because he wouldn't be affected by any monster that would come.

Panicking he called the school and asked about Mira and the bus. Hearing the attendants voice also being panicky, he knew that something bad had happened.

"So what happened to the bus?" Perseus asked the lady on the other side of the phone.

"We don't know, there are a couple more parents all calling in and reporting the same thing that you are," The lady said. "We have already called the cops and other authorities. I'm sorry that we can't be of much more help."

She then promptly hung up, leaving Perseus with the phone still to his ear. His emotion of being scared was rapidly being replaced by anger, with his anger, the sky started to darken as clouds began to form over head and rain started to drizzle down. He calmly placed the phone down and started walking toward his room.

Once there he sat down on his chair and began to take some deep breaths, calming him down and making the storm stop until there were only dark clouds outside. After calming down a bit he opened up his window and whistled twice. In a few short moments a merlin falcon came gliding through the window and landed on Perseus' outstretched hand.

The falcon nuzzled his hand with its head and looked into its creator's eyes as a silent conversation commenced. The falcon seemed to nod its head and then flew out the window obeying its master's wishes to find his daughter.

It was nerve wracking, but Perseus tried his best to stay calm. Unable to do nothing at all he got into his car and drove to the school and parked his car. Apparently a bunch of other parents had the same idea as he did as there were quite a few people there, all crying, some more then others. He sat next to one couple and tried his best to comfort them, which helped the couple out a lot.

An hour later a report came in by some police that a bus had been found with a lot of children inside of it. There were eighteen children on the bus and most of them had some cuts and bruises but there were no serious injuries. After a good half an hour, a couple cars pulled up to the school and the kids started to pile out of the cars. All of the kids in the cars got out and began to run to their parents, telling them what happened. Perseus waited calmly for his daughter to get out of one of the cars but she never did, leaving him in a state of hopelessness. The other parents saw him sit down and cover his face with his hands.

One of the parents gently pushed their child to him. "Um, sir?" the kid asked.

Perseus looked up and the boy in front of him and said in a shaky voice, "Yes?"

"I think I know what happened to your daughter," he said. "The bus driver pulled us over and started to attack Mira. One of the other kids stepped in to help out, he had crutches but him and Mira got away from the bus driver and ran away."

He stood up and looked down at the kid, "Thank you, do you know who this kid with crutches was?"

The boy thought for a moment and then said, "Sorry I don't know him, but I will say that he was a weird kid. Sometimes he would eat strange objects like aluminum foil and some other things."

Having a good idea on where his daughter was being taken he thanked the kid and walked to his car. Before he could get in though, the same falcon that he sent out earlier that day returned and landed on the top of the car. The falcon had found his daughter.

Not wishing to waste any time at all, he quickly drove his car home, maybe running a few red lights and past a couple stop signs. When he got home he parked his car and then started to shapeshift for the first time in many long years. He transformed into a giant falcon about a couple meters in wingspan and followed the falcon he sent out earlier. He would get his daughter back if it was the last thing he did.
