Italic means thoughts or dreams P.O.V. It also means texts.
Growls and hissing irrupt around me.
"One last chance to join the Lord Kronos rank," Luke stated.
"What did I say before," I growled. "I will not."
"Well then I'm sorry dear sister," He replied. "Hail and farewell."
He turned his back to me, swinging my dagger to take out a scaly one. Throwing it to another's neck. Swinging out my bow and notching arrows.
"You're going lose!" I yelled shooting arrows and taking down more.
Growls and hissing more, a sharp pain rip through my arm. Pushing through it and sent more flying to take down the kindly ones.
"I don't think so today!" Alex's voice rang out.
She appeared swinging her own sword in an upper slash decapitated a kindly one which disintegrated into sand.
"Thanks for the save," I muttered.
Noticing and sending arrows taking down more kindly ones until there were piles of sands around us. She looked to see that Luke was nowhere to be seen.
"Damn it," I growled.
"He got away," She muttered. "Are you okay?"
Helping me up and slipped her own sword back into its holder.
"I'm fine," I said pushing away from her and really attached the bow to its own holder. "I can't believe he got away."
"We're going to get him don't worry," Alex replied. "Ava is still at the shop. You got scratch here."
She gently taps my arm, fighting a cry of pain.
"I'm fine," I replied. "We need to find Luke."
"No right now we need to get that look at and get back to Ava," She reasoned. "And we need to tell Chiron that we spotted him."
"But…" I started.
"No butts," She said cutting me off. "We need to get you back home."
She pulled a clean rag and wrapped it over the cut.
"Fine," I muttered.
She started to walk me back to the shop, where Ava was waiting for us looking somewhat confused.
"What was that all about?" She asked.
"Someone who is a traitor to Camp," I muttered.
"We need to get back home," Alex said.
"If we can get to the Lab there a first aid kit." I reasoned.
"Got it," Alex said. "Ava come along."
Rushing through the street of NYC heading to the Lab. The pain was ripping through my arm.
"It's hurting." I groaned.
"Nearly there," Alex reasoned. "Push through it."
We turned and came to the entryway of the Lab. Alex pushed the doors open and ushered us in.
"Password?" I heard.
"Wings!" I cried out.
Walking over to the work table, Alex pushed me to a chair to sit. She walks to find the first aid kit.
"Whoa," Ava whistled doing a complete three-sixty degree turn. "This is amazing."
"Glad you like it," I teased. "Welcome to the Lab, this is my technology lab."
"So you create crazy tech stuff?" Ava asked.
"Yeah, I've been creating demigod-safe laptops and other technologies," I muttered.
Alex appeared holding the red first aid kit, she offered us a smile before setting it down.
"Alright let's get the cut looked at and cleaned." She said unwrapping the rag to see the now bloody cut.
"It's bleeding," Ava muttered looking at it. "It might need stitches."
"Yeah we know," Alex replied. "And let's hope not with the stitches."
Lifting the lid and started to clean the wounds.
"Damn it hurts," I muttered.
"Yes I'm sorry," She replied "So what did he want?"
"He wanted me to join him against the Gods," I said. "I told him it's not going to happen."
"We need to tell Chiron." She said.
"Yes I know," I replied.
"Who is Luke?" Ava asked.
"A traitor," I said. "He's my half-brother who chose to join the Kronos forces."
"That sucks," Ava said.
"Yeah we know," Alex said as she wrapped the cut in a clean bandage. "So I think you are good to go."
"Let's get home," I said.
(TL)
Having passed on the info to Chiron about the Luke sighting. Ava had been working nonstop on the new gear. She also let it ship that she was making a small thing for Alex as well. Interesting to see what it was going to be, but kept the secret to myself knowing that it's going to be good. The school was boring like normal with both Macford and Kingston ramping up being jerks.
"Ava called and told me that the gear is ready to get," I said.
"Awesome," Alex said. "Then we can get back to fighting crime and kicking butts."
We headed over to the apartment, giving a knock, and waited for Ava, yet when the door open to come face to face with Mr. DiLorenzo.
"Hello Mr. DiLorenzo," I said with a smile. "Ava is waiting for us."
He offered a tight smile and let us into the apartment. Ava appeared with a smile.
"Alright come on in to see the costume for the play." She said.
Going past him into Ava's room, where there stood three dressing dummies where our gear lay in perfect condition, each of them had a large and deep hood, all of them were dark colors, the one that I figure was mine was deep and dark green hue, while Alex was completely black. The other one was smaller and had a hint of grey hues. The one that was gear more towards me, was given what looked like a fitted military jacket, long fitted shelves, and leather gloves. the hood was lined with dark fabric. As for the pants, they too followed the same colors. Walking around to find that golden wings were stitched in. Glancing down to see strong and sturdy boots. Alex's gear jacket looks more like a biker jacket that was loose, again with leather gloves same as the pants and that was covered in straps and boots. For the last one, it was smaller and more fitted. It was the same material, knowing within seconds that it was Ava's.
"Whoa," Alex whistles. "They look amazing."
"Thanks," Ava said smiling brightly. "Just so you know there are made with bulletproof material."
"Interesting," I said.
Alex circled the gear and look pleased with it.
"It's beautiful Ava," Alex said. "Really it is beautiful."
"Thank you," Ava said.
"These are going to be awesome," Alex said.
"I do have something else for you Alex as well," Ava said before disappearing for a moment.
Alex gave me a look concerned about what was going on. Just smiling at her, Ava appeared carrying a purple box. She handed it over.
"Okay, what is it?" She asked.
"You see when you open it," Ava said.
Alex looked at her, before ripping the box open to find a leather bomber jacket.
"What is this?" She asked carefully taking it out of the box.
"Well we figure you needed a little badass in your wardrobe," Ava said. "Which is the reason for the jacket, I hope you like it."
"I love it," She said slipping it on. "Thanks, Ava."
She looks it over and smirks at it.
"I'm happy that you like it," Ava said. "I'm quite happy to show you how to dress more fashionable if that you would like."
"Thanks, Ava but I'm good right now but I might take you up on the offer later." She replied with a smile.
(TL)
Alex walks like a boss through the halls of the school on Monday, fall had truly come to stay in New York. A chill in the air. Leaves turning there bright reds, oranges, yellows, and browns. Autumn and earthly smells were roaring to life. Alex dressed in dark wash jeans, a black and white stripe long shelve shirt, a pair of black lace-up boots. Pairing it with a leather jacket. Wearing my own pair of jeans and boots with a green shirt which had small black stars stitched on. Alex offered me a smirk and headed off to her classes. Grabbing my own stuff.
"She thinks she all that." I heard Macford whispered.
"I suggested that we change that," Kingston whispered.
Giving them a look as if saying try something.
"Wow, Black you think you're all that!" Kingston called. "But your nothing back a freak who needs to be in a ward for freaks!"
Alex gave them a look but kept walking away.
Giving them a smirk as I walk past them.
"Grow up." I stage whispered.
They both shot a look that for some who freeze them to the spot but I had faced far worst. They growl as well, which I just rolled my eyes and walk away. Seeing that it didn't work a fear that they were going to do something worst.
(TL)
A shrill bell alerted everyone that the school day was finally over.
"Alright class that's the end of the day," A teacher said. "Next week we are going to talk about the Salem Witch trials."
Heading out of the room to my locker. A shrill laugh alerted me to something. Running after everyone else to find Alex: covered in red paint looking like something out of Stephen King's novel Carrie. Thankfully the leather jacket was not covered. Pushing myself through come to Alex's side.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I demanded.
Both Macford and Kingston just laughed, making others laugh as well.
"Let's just go Tabs," Alex said simply.
She pushed past them heading to the office. Giving chase, walk after her.
"Macford and Kingston did this to me," Alex stated simply. "I want them to hold accountable for it."
"Well, Ms. Black we are not sure…" One of the aid said.
"No there did this If you can't help me then I will file with the police for bullying and assault," Alex said.
The aid said nothing.
Alex shot her a look of anger, and look at her.
"We are not sure." The aid said again.
"You are covering and protecting them," Alex replied. "Why am I not surprised? Have fun with the police."
She turned and walk away pushing past me, running after her.
"Alex, are you really going to the police?" I asked.
"Yes I am," She replied. "I'm also getting Mom."
"Right then let's go then," I said.
Okay, that end of chapter 84 more is coming please tell me what you think but please use Constructive criticism.
