Percy Jackson Annabeth Chase meet the Fallen C16

"What?" Sam asked turning to look behind her as she saw a light, a golden glow that reminded her of the sun. But it was not the sunlight she was seeing no it was a soft glow from her wings. "Argh." Sam moved tripping over her feet not used to the sudden weight change she flexed her wings. Elizabeth helped her to her feet.

"As much as I have many questions about this...we still have monsters." Elizabeth stated Sam was in shock. "Anna!" Elizabeth shouted her name making her look at her.

"Huh? Oh monsters yeah. Let's finish them off." Sam stated she tried running towards the monster closest to her it was stuck staring at her but she was very awkward.

"Just like that time you had owl wings." Elizabeth shouted at her clearing Sam's head she knew how to move with wings even though it was clear these were not owl wings. The theory was still the same.
The monsters left did not take too long to deal with. As Sam was sitting with Elizabeth after she had dealt with the last monster Sam only just recognised that she was no longer bleeding. Her wounds were all healed up. Sam had told Elizabeth about the child she had hidden and it would be best that she did not see the wings. So Elizabeth had left to make sure the child was alright as Sam waited sitting on the ground, examining the wings on her. By now the wings had sand in them but Sam shrugged it off sand was everywhere.
Elizabeth returned sitting next to her handing her a drink.

"What do you remember about mum?" Sam asked before Elizabeth could ask any questions.

"She was kind and gentle. She had an amazing voice, remember when dad would play the lure and she would sing. What made you think of her?"

"She's been on my mind lately." Sam shrugged not sure if she should tell her sister. "I don't remember her name, do you?" Sam asked closing her eyes trying to remember. Elizabeth opened her mouth and closed it she blinked a couple of times then sighed.

"I can't either. I remember her voice and I can picture her face although it is a bit hazy."

"I remember everything about dad, his lessons, his poems...I remember meeting Athena hell I even remember Hercules. But when it comes to her...I can't remember. Do you remember the meeting...the council?"

"No, that was all a blur. Anna where is this going?"

"I need to speak to Athena, come on we should go before the mortals come looking." Sam stated standing up just as a jet flew over top she saw the concentration look in Elizabeth's face so she knew she was hiding them in the mist. Sam grabbed her arm before touching Athena's mark. "Home to your side." Sam stated and felt as they were flashed back to Athena's side. Athena looked up from her work at the two of them. Her gaze was firmly on Sam though. Sam felt her in her head.

"Elizabeth you can return to Artemis." Athena stated and for the first time in a long time it looked like Elizabeth wanted to protest but one look from Athena had her leaving the room.

"Is it true?" Sam asked

"What true?"

"Don't play games with me Athena. You know exactly what I am asking." Sam stated indicating the wings, which Athena was also looking at.

"I am forbidden to tell you." Athena stated moving around Sam she felt her fingers brush against her wings. It sent a ripple through her, one of bliss she shuddered in delight.

"Was my mother an angel? Why can't I remember her?"

"How did you get your wings?" Athena asked back

"I don't know they just appeared."

"You did not inform Elizabeth of what you discovered?"

"No...I..." Sam stopped she did not know why she did not inform her sister.

"Good."

"Huh?" Sam asked turning around to look at Athena but ended up stumbling. She grabbed onto the desk, her head was hurting. "Athena!" Sam asked dropping to her knees her hand went up to her head she could once again feel Athena in her head.

"You will be fine." Athena stated but it sounded distant that was when she lost consciousness. Athena looked down at Anna, she was covered in dirt, sand and blood. Moving over to her she ran her hand down her wings they seemed to shiver under her touch. She let a little bit of power flow into her and watched as the wings retracted into her back she bound them in place, then she entered her mind altering her memories. She did not like doing this, but it was the only way. Then she flicked her hand and Anna was all clean before she moved her to her room to let her rest.

Anna woke up her body ached as she recalled what had happened. The fight, monsters Troy...she went back to that place. How did she get back here though? Looking around she instantly recognised her room in Athena's mansion up in Olympus. She also could sense Athena was here in her study. She got up and got changed with a groan her back hurt. Pushing through the pain she entered Athena's study.

"You are awake, how do you feel?" Athena asked

"Sore. What happened?"

"You know what happened, the reason you are sore is from being speared through the back." Athena stated "it took a bit of energy to heal you." She added

"Elizabeth?"

"Is back with the hunt."

"Why were there so many monsters there?"

"We don't know.

"What do the mortals think happened?"

"That an invading force tried taking it but were stopped by soldiers." Athena replied Anna noticed that she was watching her carefully.

"Everything alright?" She asked

"Yes, I have decided to stay in my firm in New York for a while."

"Cool will we be staying at my apartment?" Anna asked

"Your apartment has been sold, we will be staying at my new one, here is your new ID." Athena stated as Anna looked down at the name.

"What was wrong with Sam?" She asked reading her name Anna White.

"Your name is Anna White."

"You are my aunt again? Aunty Helen."

"That is who my firm is under."

"Hold up, this says I am a selected mute." Anna asked reading through the folder she was given.

"It also says you are a genius."

"Just this once I want to be a slacker." Anna stated but looked away after she got a very pointed look from Athena.

EPILOGUE Three months later

Anna was in her office, she was working on some calculations. Trying to solve it, she had been stuck on it for a week and refused to ask Athena for help. Athena was back after sorting some things out on Olympus and was currently in her own office down the hall from her. Anna knew she had made her office on the same floor so she could keep an eye on her, she would be lying to say being mute was annoying but to this day she had been refused by Athena to change it. She called it her punishment seeming Anna could now leave the same room without asking and had to only say if she left the building. Anna had wanted to speak to Elizabeth for a while but she was busy with the hunt, she had no idea what Annabeth was doing these days and could not check on her she only hoped she was not getting into trouble. Anna sighed and threw her pen across the desk these numbers were not making sense. A knock on the door revealed a tall blonde girl standing there staring at her. Anna made the signal for her to come in she could not help but compare her to daughters of Aphrodite but instantly knew she was not a demigod. She finally clicked on where she knew her from. Just as her aunt walked in the room the two of them stared at each other. She scribbled something down on a piece of paper handing it to Gabbe.

'Gabbe right? From Sword and Cross? This is my aunt Helen.' Gabbe looked surprised at the note she went to ask her a question but her aunt bet her to it.

"Anna, can you go down to reception, they have the Dovercrest file that I need." She stated Gabbe watched as Anna gave her a specific look in return her aunt raised one eyebrow. Anna's shoulder dropped before she nodded. She gave Gabbe the one minute signal before she left the room. Gabbe figures out who her aunt exactly was as she seemed to be assessing her she could feel her power.

"She does not remember me?" Gabbe asked

"Only you from Sword and Cross, she does not know what you are."

"You are keeping that part of her locked up?"

"She is Greek, she cannot be both. Her mother is an archangel her father is a god strong power radiates from both bloodlines but only one can be dominant. I have her best intentions in mind. I do not like doing this, for her survival though I will."

"She should have the right to choose. What of her sister?"

"That choice was taken from her and her sister when their mother left them in the care of their father."

"You cannot hide what they are forever, when they are ready I will help them." Gabbe stated Athena looked at her she knew she was a full angel, one of the archangels.

"I will protect them however long it takes." Athena responded

"We do not want to harm them, they need no protection from us. Your side however between monsters and cautious gods...who do they really need protecting from?" Gabbe asked back

"You will watch over her no matter what I say?" Athena asked her "even if I asked you to leave her be?"

"I will watch over her, but I won't interact not unless she wants me to."

"Why did only Anna get wings?"

"Why has Elizabeth got more of her fathers talents? You cannot deny who their mother is, just as we cannot deny who their father is." Gabbe replied just as Anna reentered the room with the files she looked from Gabbe to Athena waiting for an explanation.

"You left this at sword and cross your friend here was returning it." Athena stated holding a bag. Gabbe looked from Athena to Anna who nodded her thanks.

"Right well it was good seeing you again Anna. I best be off." Gabbe replied she waved before turning on her heel and walked out. Once she was out of the room Anna threw a piece of paper at Athena to get her attention.

'What was that about?' Anna asked through thought.

"It was nothing, don't forget to take that back to the apartment." Athena stated dropping the bag by the door before returning to her own office. Anna sighed leaning on her desk, shaking her head she returned to her work.

THE END
