HERMES REALLY LET HIMSELF GO
When I got to the kitchen I looked at all the supplies I needed and I smiled at my idea. When the crew came to the kitchen, their mouths fell to the ground.
"Blake did you make all this" Hazel said looking at all the food I prepared from pancakes to bacon to sausages.
"Yeah I cook for myself when my mom away" I picked up some sausages in a pan and I cooked them with my fire powers "and it helps when you have powers".
"show off" Jessica said.
"ow, if we're showing off then this piece bread needs to be toasted" Leo said as he picked up the bread and burned it in his hand.
"Yeah or this" Percy said as he controlled a ball of water to float from his cup to his mouth.
"Percy" Annabeth said slapping him in the back of his head then kissed him on the cheek.
"or this" Frank said turning into a octopus and did eight different things like eat or drink or cut something. He turned back when he was done.
"Frank" Hazel said fanning her face.
"ha you're all cute" Jason said as he controlled the winds to cut his pancakes with a knife and grab them his fork and fed him without him touching them.
"Ha ha you boys done showing off" Piper said.
"I don't know beauty queen are we" Leo said.
Piper rolled her eyes "are we close to this pawn shop Blake saw" she said.
"yes a few minutes and we're there, I suggest we prepare for what we may see" Leo said.
"your right, Janus is going to be there and bad thing always happen with him" Annabeth said.
We all finished eating and got ready to leave, Leo land the ship in a park, which people would look at it and walk away like it wasn't interesting.
"Why don't they seem to care about a giant ship in the middle of the park" I said.
"The Mist make people see what they want to see," Frank said "Hazel can control the Mist better than the Hecate kids".
"Oh, stop it" Hazel said blushing.
Leo, Piper, Jason, Frank, and Hazel all stayed behind because it was safer, we walked through the park till we reached the brown pawn shop from my dreams, but it looked like no one has been in there for years. The shop has boarded up windows and cobwebs along the door and there was no light from inside.
"Are you sure this is the right place" Percy said scratching his head.
"I'm sure" I said.
Before I was able to take a step further, there was a pop sound and a man in a red doorman suit popped out of nowhere. Everything was normal about him except for the fact that he had two heads with only one doorman hat which I don't know how he can put it on.
"Why hello Blake nice to meet you" left side said then passing a key to the right.
"Not real nice to see us" right said passing the key to the left like they were talking turns.
"What do you mean" I said.
"Well you need to choose your fate" right said.
"And yours is different" left said.
"Why don't you get this over with" Annabeth said.
"Shut girl your choice will come soon" left said.
"Your dad said to give you a small hint to lead you on the right path" right said.
"And that is" I said.
"Well the on the left may kill a love one and stop destruction and the door on the right may end others life's" left said.
"How is that a little hint" right said.
"I said "may" do it" left said.
I looked at Jessica thinking about what Rachel and Janus said about the love one who will die, but I couldn't let all of Camp and the world parish because of me, but prophesies sometimes have double meaning to them.
"I choose the left door" I said and Janus went to the left door and unlocked it and then disappeared. I looked back at Jessica she smiled a little for my sake.
"I'm sorry" I said.
"It's okay" she said hugging me.
"Well come on guys" Percy said and Annabeth elbowed him "ow sorry"
We then went inside and it was as bad as it was inside as it was outside. The lights were off and the ceiling was covered with cobwebs and sheets covered most of the display cases. Then I saw a little bell on the counter and it was as good of a idea as any.
Ding Ding
"Really you thought that-" Jessica was cut off when a man walked in.
He was probably in his late forties, he wore a white tank top which had food stains all over it and he was quite round in the belly. He also had big glasses that made his eyes even bigger and last he had a comb over which didn't cover much.
"Well you finely came" the man said.
"Um, who are you" Percy said.
"What you don't remember me," he said with his arms wide out, we waited in silence tell he look down at himself "whoops forgot about the disguise" he said then snapping his fingers and he changed.
He turned in to a thirty year old man with a suit, his waist shrunk and his hair grew back and his glasses disappeared. It's wasn't just the man who changed but also the room, lights turned on, dust and cobwebs cleaned and sheets gone.
"Don't I clean up well or what" the man said.
"Hermes what are you doing here" Annabeth said.
"Don't forget about us" small voices said in my head and I looked down to see two snake wrapped around in the shape of a cell phone in the man's pocket.
"George, Martha how you been" Percy said to the cell phone.
"Good, good by the way bring me any rats" George said.
"We just ate five minutes ago" Martha said.
"Well that was five minutes ago I'm hungry now" George said while Hermes rolled his eyes.
"Wait who's George and Martha" I said.
"We're the snakes of Hermes' staff who are you" George said while the cell phone turned in to a silver staff with the snakes curled around it.
"I'm Blake Williams, and why are you in a pawn shop Hermes" I said.
"I'm here to give you a weapon" he said.
"What kind of weapon" I said.
"Ah, now that a good question" he ducked under the counter and came back up with a grey gem in his hand "this weapon is powerful, Hephaestus made this weapon in the first Giant war but found to powerful, it needed a wielder who specializes in all weapons to control this weapon and I think that's you".
"Why would you need to be specialised in all weapons with only one weapon" Percy said.
"Here Blake try it out" he said giving me the gem "now think of a sword".
I did what he said and the gem turned into a sword, it's blade and hilt was bronze and it had the grey gem inside the hilt. I looked at the gem closer to see little flashes of light inside the gem like a storm was in side.
"Now think of the other weapons" Hermes said.
I thought about the other weapons and the sword turned from a dagger to a spear to a hammer even a bow but no arrows.
"Don't worry just pull back the string and a arrow will be there" he said.
"Wow it's amazing, next you'll tell me it can turn into a machine gun" I said.
"It fits you multiple powers and multiple weapons" Jessica said.
"You best get on with your journey" Hermes said.
"See you Hermes thanks for the weapon" I said starting to leave.
"Better bring me some rats the next time we meet" George said.
"I bet Clarisses is going to be jealous of that" Annabeth said as we walked back to the ship in the middle of the park.
