I'm back again. Hope you liked the last few chapters.
starts15963: parents :). That's fine with me. I'm happy to hear that you like the story still.
I don't own the Percy Jackson or Heroes of Olympus series. Rick Riordan does.
I woke up from a black void. For what seemed like a year I lied there being able to hear but not able to move or see.
Not much was said around me and I think most though I would die. It was a big relief to be able to open my eyes to me and them.
When I did so Will was at my side immediately, taking my temperature blood pressure, asking if I could do these simple things, like lift two fingers.
"How do you feel?" He asked looking me over.
"My back feels like it got ran over by a bus, my head feels like a bus is running into it still, other than that I'm pretty much great. Can you remind me of what happened? I'm not exactly sure what I was dreaming and not." I said flexing my shoulders and wincing immediately at the bad decision.
"One of the monsters tore off your wings. Then he threw you off into the sky, you probably have a concussion from when Owen caught you." He said it slowly so I could let it all sink in.
"How is everyone? Are the Romans still here?" I asked.
"Yes the Romans are still here. In fact there are more than a few who really want to meet you. When I mentioned your name to one my Roman siblings he started freaking out." He said smiling, "Who do you want to see first?"
"The seven and Nico and just select one random other person to come with." I said giving a small smile.
"Ok, I'll be right back. Ok, call one of my siblings if you need anything. Oh yeah and if they ask if you have had pain killers yet, you haven't. Ok, got everything?" He said listing everything off on his fingers.
It felt like half an hour before he returned, when realistically he was only gone three to five minutes. Jason, Piper, Percy, Annabeth, The two Romans I couldn't name right now and Nico and The Roman leader.
"Hello," I said slowly.
"Hey, Clair." Nico said smiling. " Good to see you alive."
"I'm happy to be too." I said easily smiling, he smiles to.
"Oh, yes, formal greetings. Clair meet Reyna" He gesture to the Roman Leader, she nods and smiles, " Frank son of Mars and Hazel daughter of Pluto." They both waved when mentioned.
Then a sense of dread came over me, "Where's Leo?" I asked.
For a moment nobody said anything. They all looked at their toes. Then Piper slowly said, "He died in an explosion, killing Gaea."
"Oh," I whispered. I looked down at my lap.
"We'll see you soon." Nico said and they all left. I tried talking to Leo but I never could get his spirit to answer me. I was positive he would go into Elysium. Could the gods have brought him back to life, and he had to get back here himself?
Time skip.
It was the last day before I was allowed to move back into my cabin. No activities that involved large amounts of moment. I could at least walk around camp and try to get to know the Romans before they left for their camp again in three days.
Then they came in, Matt and Owen. They walked over. Then Jason followed a few seconds after. They all pulled chairs over.
"Clair, right?" Owen asked trying to start a conversation.
"Yes, Could you remind me of your name?" I say trying to shrink back. He smiles.
"I'm Owen, son of Cupid. This is Matt son of Apollo and legacy of Mars." He said gesturing to Matt.
I smile and put out a weak, "Hello."
"I just wanted to come by and make sure you were doing OK." Owen said as he
Rubbed the back of his neck.
"Oh, yeah, I'm doing uh fine. Thank you by the way for catching me." I said. So now he has admitted he is the son of Cupid and not a random demigod with wings. Should I trust him?
"I forget to ask. If you don't mind me asking, Who is your Godly parent?" he said loosely, picking a small piece of lint off his shirt.
I tensed and thought about it, "I'm the daughter of," I paused and he looked back you at me, tinted pink brown eyes met my golden ones, " I'm the daughter of Thanatos."
His eyes widened for a moment. Then he smiled and said, "I don't see what my father had against yours. You don't seem to be out to murder people." He gave a light laugh at the end.
I easily smiled and said, "You wouldn't believe the number of people who have asked me questions about if I wanted to murder people." He smiled even bigger.
"So do you have any siblings?" He said starting small talk, "Like from your Godly parent?" I looked at Jason he looked like he was trying to remember something he had forgotten.
I shook my head, "Oh, I have six older brothers. All of them are both my mothers and my fathers. So I'm completely related to them." He said shaking his head smiling.
Jason shot out of his chair, "Oh, oh. That's what I was supposed to do. Matt, Clair." He says frantically looking between us.
I was confused. Then I realized what he was trying to say. My mouth dropped into a silent O.
"So…" I say looking at Matt. He had the same eyes he had before. Just without the same light.
He whips his head towards Jason, "You told her. You told her" he looked like a kicked puppy.
"Matt," I said slowly. He looked at me and then I saw the wheels spinning.
Jason was quick to respond, "We can't be sure till the Mars or your mother sees her, but she has the same situation your sister." He smiled down at me. Then he carefully bent down and hugged me. I wanted to hug him back, but I knew it would be a bad idea.
He continued to smile at me and then he and Owen spent the rest of the day keeping me company talking about my time here at camp, and New Rome.
Will wouldn't let me leave Camp half-Blood any time soon, but in a few months I might be able to go to Camp Jupiter and talk to Mother. Maybe just maybe she'll actually be my mother.
That or Matt and his/my mother would come here. Maybe Mars would come instead. Maybe my some miracle a God would give a select few of us wishes and just maybe I would be one. Then I could have my wings back. Then I could go to New Rome even earlier.
Everything seemed to be one large maybe. Things might just have picked up for a while. Maybe they would stay good for a while. Maybe they would get even better.
Just maybe,
This isn't the last chapter doesn't worry. However the next chapter gets even more interesting. The next chapter has Phobos and Deimos. This is the first chapter they are in, and I plan on having them in a few more. Hope you liked it, tell me if you don't and I'll try to fix it somewhat. bye- Tyme
