Chapter 1 – I finally have a friend!

POV: Perseus (Percy)

I groaned as I slowly started to come back to conscious. I tried to open my eyes, but my eyelids were too heavy. After trying a couple of times, I was finally able to open my eyes, but I quickly closed them again as a bright light shone onto my face and I had to shield my eyes from the light. After various tries and a lot of blinking I finally could normally open my eyes without having to close them immediately afterwards.

I sat up, although it cost me a lot of energy because it felt like my body was on strike, and I looked around me. Suddenly I got an immensely headache and I groaned as I put my hands on my head and closed my eyes trying to push the pain away. I looked up again and didn't recognize my surroundings.

'Where the fuck am I?' I questioned myself not really expecting an answer.

'It looks like we're in what they call a 'school'' A voice answered and I looked around trying to find where the voice came from.

"Who are you and what do you mean by a 'school'? What's a school?" I questioned out loud still looking around for a body that belonged to the voice.

'I'm you and you are me, but we are not the same, we together are Perseus Jackson.' The voice answered.

"Huh? I don't get it."

'Of course you don't get it' The voice muttered, 'That's why I'm the brains and you're the brawn. Oh, by the way you don't have to talk out loud because people are looking at us like we're crazy and I can hear your thoughts just like you can hear mine.' I looked around me and saw some kids with backpacks and books in their hands walking by and looking weirdly at us.

'Oh okay.' I answered stupidly, 'And what should I call you?'

'Hmm,' I heard as I suddenly saw an image of someone who looked exactly like me and saw him stroking his nonexistent beard, 'You can call me eh... Sophos!' I mentally raised an eyebrow,

'Sophos?'

'Yeah, σοφός or Sophós. It means 'wise/clever' or 'wise man' hehe.' Sophos said and I mentally rolled my eyes.

'Okay so can you tell me again where we are?' I question again.

'A school, it's a place for educating children.' Sophos explained

'Sounds like a living hell if you ask me.' I muttered and stood up and walked towards a nearby door. Although walking isn't the good word more like hopping as my legs still didn't really cooperate. 'How do you actually know this all?' I asked Sophos.

'Well, when we got killed by Typhon you got sent to Tartarus to reform and I was sent towards the sky where I could still look at the world. How we got split in two? I have no idea. All I know is that that wasn't supposed to happen. So something weird must have happened.' Sophos explained and suddenly all his thoughts and memories came crushing down in to my mind and my headache came back full force.

'Shit man, couldn't you just warn me before you decided to throw all your memories at me?' I groaned and I heard Sophos chuckling.

I almost reached the door before suddenly someone stepped in front of the door. It was a girl about thirteen years old. She had blond hair and brown eyes. She also had a backpack slung over her shoulder and looked to be one of the students of the school. The girl looked me straight in the eyes with a weird look which I couldn't identify.

'Monster.' Sophos warned me and I mentally nodded at him.

"Ehm, hello? Can you please step out of the way?" I asked calmly, but my mind was already thinking of a solution how to get out of this situation. I slowly reached for my pocket as I knew my sword was in there.

The girl noticed and smirked at me and said, "No thank you." Before she suddenly transformed into a empousa and lunged at me. I quickly put my hand in my pocket only to find it empty and I cursed as I remembered I lost my sword in the fight with Typhon. I rolled just in time out of the way to avoid becoming monster food.

'Shit. What do we have to do now?' I asked Sophos as I ran towards the door and pushed it open and quickly turned around and pushed it shut with my body as the empousa who had recovered from the jump tried to open the door with her claws.

'Eh I would say.. Run for your life!' Sophos answered as I couldn't hold the door any longer and the empousa almost clawed my face.

'Wow Einstein, I hadn't thought of that myself.' I said sarcastically to Sophos who rolled his eyes. I sprinted away with a very aggressive empousa hot on my heels. I looked forward and saw that a few yards away there was an ally on my right where I could hide in and I kept running. When I reached the ally I quickly rolled to the side into the ally.

The ally was very dark and there were large shadows. I quickly ran towards the end of the ally and pressed my back against the wall. I waited and hoped that I had shaken off the empousa. Sadly, I wasn't that lucky.

"Where are you puny demigod! I know you are in here; I can smell you!" The empousa looked around and smirked when she saw me. I was quite offended when she called me a demigod, I mean I know I am weak because I've just reformed but c'mon, a demigod! But decided against making a problem from it.

"You thought you could escape from me? HAhah! You wish!" The empousa said. I knew there was no way of escaping and took a fighting stance with my fist raised in front of my face. But before I could even think about making a move a loud "WHAJAAAAHH!" Was heard and the empousa was suddenly multiple times smacked upside the head with a baseball bat and it turned to golden dust.

I looked up from the empousa with wide eyes and saw a girl about eleven years old with a shit-eating grin on her face as she looked at what was now left of the empousa. She kicked the golden dust a couple of times and said, "Take that you bitch!". I was kind of intimidated by the girl.

The girl looked up at me and I could see her better. She had short black hair with a blue streak through it which came to her shoulders. Her eyes were an intimidating brown with specs of a darker brown in it. She wore black ripped jeans and a light gray shirt with a black leather jacket on top. The girl looked to be sizing me up but then her eyes landed on mine and she casually said,

"Sup" I raised an eyebrow at her but smirked.

"Thanks." I said.

"No problem. Plus, I couldn't just ignore a damsel-in-distress who needed my help." She responded and I rolled my eyes but still smiled as I thought 'We are going to be really good friends'.

"What's your name? Or should I just call you…" I trailed off as I looked at her jacket which had all kind of weird spikes on it and I smirked," Spiky?" I asked.

"My name's Evelyn, Evelyn Clash, and you cannot call me Spiky." She said eyed me warily. "What's yours?"

"Sure thing Spiky and the name's Perseus Jackson. Nice to meet you." I smirked as I saw her narrowing her eyes and I mentally prepared myself for a very long sprint. The last thing I remember before I was chased by a crazy, murderous girl through the entire city was Sophos saying,

'Man, you're so fucked.'

-Time skip-

After I was literally chased through the entire city by Evelyn and then got the crap beaten out of me, I found out that we got along really well. I found out that she was a demigod daughter of Ares and her mother was killed when she was seven years old. Which caused me to sadden a bit when I remembered that my mom was also dead and my father was never there for me. Oh, I never told you who my father was did I? Well my father is the titan Oceanus. Also, when Evelyn had beaten the crap out of me, I found out that I was bleeding blood, red blood. Sophos explained me that when we got split into two my immortality probably faded away. I didn't really understand it, but I knew I had to watch out from now.

So yeah, Evelyn and I had some things in common. She also told me that since her mothers' death she had been living on the streets and she found out that she was a demigod. Also, Evelyn's hobby was killing things and people and beating the crap out of them, as I had experienced. I was glad to hear that I was on her good side.

And now me and Evelyn were walking through a forest.

"Where exactly are we going?" I asked Evelyn as we were walking through the forest already for a couple of hours and I had no idea where we were going.

"Well I am look for the legendary Hunters of Artemis. It's kind of my dream to be able to join them. A year ago or so I was at this demigod camp. They call it Camp Half-blood, but it isn't really something for me. There are some really annoying and arrogant demigods like this pathetic excuse for a son of Zeus, Heracles, and his buddy's." Evelyn answered bitterly, "And the Hunters of Artemis is a group of bad-ass eternal maidens who despise the male population," She smirked at me at this, "And as for you, well you just followed me. Although once we've found the hunters I don't know if they would like your accompany." She smiled at me sadly. "I'm sorry but this was my dream and then I met you and now I start to feel guilty and I hate feeling guilty."

I smiled sadly at her and said, "It's fine, although I will follow you till the very end towards the hunters." I said stubbornly," I see you as my friend, Evelyn, and I've never had friends before. And I'm not planning on losing the first one." I told her sincerely.

"Jeez, Jackson you make only more guilty." She joked as the tension in the air had gotten sad. It worked as I cracked a smile and she continued, "And I also see you as a friend, and I also have never had friends before so don't ruin it." She playfully punched my arm.

After that we both kept walking in a comfortable silence. I looked up into the dark sky and my eyes widened as I saw the moon shine brightly on me, meaning that there was a new heir of the moon. I cursed as I almost forgot what I had to do.

"Hey Evelyn?" I asked softly.

"Hmm?" I she said as she turned towards me.

"You don't happen to know who the new heir of the moon is, do you?" I questioned her.

"What do you mean 'new'? And yes, I think you mean Artemis, goddess of the moon, the hunt and chastity. She's also the leader of 'The hunters of Artemis'." She responded. I stopped dead in my tracs.

"Shit." I muttered. "She's the one who hates males and who leads a group of manhating girls? I'm in so much trouble."

"I don't understand. What's wrong?" Evelyn also stopped and turned and faced me. I looked her dead in the eyes as I said,

"Well I am the son of Selene and as I could not follow her up, my mother started training me since I was still a little boy to become a guardian of the moon and I would protect the next heir of the moon. Just like my mom also had a guardian but he died a long time ago. It's kind of a tradition, I actually had to take an oath for it." I paused as I looked into her wide eyes,

"So yeah, I'm the next Guardian and since my mother died and Artemis is now the next goddess of the moon, it's my duty to protect her. I'm Luna's Guardian."

Thank you for reading the second chapter of Luna's Guardian. I hope you liked the new character Evelyn, she's gonna play a pretty big role in the book so hopefully you don't hate her. And I also hope you enjoyed reading and hopefully I will see you in next chapter! Goodbye my lovely readers, till next time!
