Percy's P.O.VI woke up at camp Half-blood to morning without any nightmares. Annabeth and the seven of us had just returned back from fighting monsters in Alaska. Jason had decided to stay with Piper and so did Hazel and Frank. I stretched and got up to get my door blasted open by Chiron and Annabeth who were in full battle gear.
" wait, are we under attack? The explosives are underneath my bunk"
I unsheathed riptide and charged out the door ready to blast off some empousa to find Annabeth and Chiron snickering and laughing.
"Calm down Seaweed brain, we aren't under attack but my eyes are! Do you seriously wear Nemo boxers?"
I looked down to find myself wearing nothing but my underwear. My face turned to an extreme shade of red and I marched inside my cabin and pulled on my jeans and t-shirt. Annabeth was still laughing about my boxers when I stepped outside,
"Shut up, wise girl. Let's not tell everybody about your bunny pajamas"
Now it was Annabeth's turn to blush.
"Well anyway, that's not what we came here for" Annabeth started, eager to change the conversation.
"A new demigod has been spotted near the Long Island Adoption Centre, a 15-year-old girl, about 5'8, black, grey eyes, shoulder-length black hair and brown tan skin and was last seen in a blue sweatshirt, grey joggers and black sneakers". Said Chiron.
Annabeth added, "Our scouts saw her single-handedly battling a gorgon. We need to get her quickly before the humans get hurt or the girl".
"So we need to get her now?"
"Yes!" , both of them exclaimed impatiently
" What about breakfast"
"What about her life" Annabeth countered
I frowned and trudged over to get my armor and shield.
New Demigod's P.O.V
Okay, okay I know this seems impossible but ever since I was 13, random monsters have been attacking me! To the rest of my friends, it looks like I'm bashing up a lamppost or a teddy bear but I swear that I'm not just imagining these creatures. It's the reason I'm not adopted yet, every time a foster family comes to check me out these gorgons and 8-foot tall giants with yellow teeth slash me with their swords and fire breath. I tried to ignore them but I had to fight back. Then the adopters think I have mental disorders or anger issues and well, you get it.
My foster group was taking a walk over to Butterfly Creek Park and everyone was giving the pity look. I bent my head down and picked up my book, that was the way to avoid bullies. We were almost there when another monster showed up in front of me, it launched its giant horn against me and I did the usual trick. I traced the pattern that unlocked my necklace and it turned into a bow and arrow. I shot my favorite, the indestructible death swipe which was lined with pointed needles at the beast and it disappeared, leaving behind a trace of gold dust.
" ! This the 14th time this month you've started bashing an oak tree with a stick on the middle of the streets!. This needs to stop or we might have to well… move you" Said my Foster Group Leader
"Carla, I'm sorry! It's just … you won't understand!" I said
"Won't understand what? You're creating a commotion and disturbing others!"
I was about to fire back a snappy comeback when Mr. Monster's friends decided to show up. I pulled out my arrow and I tried to kill as many as I could when it happened when the hot searing pain, blasting through my Scapula (shoulder blade). I collapsed to the ground to see the monster grinning devilishly behind me. I fired one last arrow and then the world went dark.
Annabeth's POV
We drove close to the foster center to find a flurry of policemen and the EMS. There was a girl, matching a description Chiron gave us knocked out on the ground. Surrounding her was an army of Laestrogynians, some of them dead, some ready to finish her off. Percy must have been thinking the same thing because he started to slice through their ranks. I grabbed my dagger and killed the monster next to her and started carrying her away from the crowd. Percy finished destroying the Laestrygonians and looked towards the sky to see Blackjack and Porkie pie zooming towards us. I hopped onto Porkie Pie with the girl and left for camp.
We brought her over to Thalia's pine tree, Chiron joined us with Ambrosia and Nectar. I fed it to her and immediately the scratches on her legs faded and her wound started to heal. We wrapped her arm in layers of white gauze and her breathing returned to normal and the color in her cheeks came back. She slowly started to sit up and we all waited.
