Chap. 4: A tour of camp and some training
Disclaimer: I don't own Percy Jackson I only own 3 characters that are Basil Grobnic, Sebastian Evergreen and Rose Serling.
"So did Clarisse give you a beat down?" asked Percy while we were in the strawberry fields."Not really. I think I beat her considering that I'm not even hurt" I said. "Yeah. SO have you ever fought before?" asked Percy while looking at me with a curious look on his face."No, not really. I mean besides LARP and the manticore…" "You fought a manticore on your way to camp?" he asked a little surprised. "Yeah and I got a tooth from him also. Want to see?" Just before I took it out of my bag someone in the distance yelled:
"Seaweed brain!" yelled a blond girl with stormy gray eyes.
"Yeah Wise girl?"
"It's your turn to water the plants!"
"I'm kind of in the middle of a tour here so can you..."
"Nope. Go water the plants I'll take it from here"
"Fine"
Percy left with a disappointed look on his face. "Hi, I'm Annabeth what's your name?" She asked. "Basil" I said. "Follow me" she said while she pulled my arm. She took me to the armory and said: "Let's get you some camp shirts, some armor and a weapon. What size are you?" she asked. "Medium and I already have a weapon" I said while I pressed the Omega symbol on my ring. It turned into a celestial bronze sword and Annabeth looked surprised.
"Amazing. I've never seen anything like it" she said and she sounded very surprised.
"Yeah well I got this watch that turns into a shield" I said trying to show off.
"Oh that? Percy has it" she said while she gave me my shirts and armor. "Come on put these on and let's go train. We got capture the flag tonight. It's the Apollo, Dionysus, Poseidon and Athena V.S. Ares, Hermes, Aphrodite, Hephateus and Zeus. And you better hope you get claimed soon because if you end up"
I put on my camp shirt as we headed toward the Arena where Annabeth called off the people that were training so that she could train me. Well here goes nothing. Annabeth taught me a few moves in the Arena and got me training with a few rotating practice dummies. After a few minutes of whacking and getting whacked by the practice dummies Annabeth decided that it was time that I practiced with an actual person. Her.
"Um I don't want to fight you, um is there anyone else?" I asked with a nervous tone.
"Scared of getting your butt kicked by a girl" she said with a mocking tone.
"You left out two facts"
"And what are those 'facts' you're talking about" she said with the same mocking tone.
"ONE: your Percy's girlfriend TWO: you're the daughter of Athena"
When I said that she was Percy's girlfriend she blushed. "No excuses" she said while she swung her blade but luckily I ducked and barrel rolled to the left. She cut my lip with the tip of her blade and I started bleeding. "You alright?" she said and I replied by swinging my sword over her head but she ducked and slashed my jeans and blood was starting to stain."Hey those were my favorite jeans!" I said. I swung my blade so hard that when she tried to parry her blade shattered into tiny pieces.
"Wow" I said with a poker face. "Do I win?" I asked in a very exited tone.
"Nope" she said while she kicked the sword out off my hand and grabbed it. She cut my jeans near my ankle and I fell to the floor."Again my favorite…" I was cut off by the beauty of a girl reading a book while sitting on a fallen log. Annabeth must of known who I was staring at cause she said: "That's Rose Serling, daughter of Aphrodite. Basil?" she hit me with the butt of her blade to bring me back to reality. "Sorry. How old is she?" "12. Why you liiiiiiiiikeeeee her?" "NO, Yes… maybe."Annabeth started laughing and wouldn't stop."I'm going to go to the mess hall. I'm starving" I applied nectar to my wounds and ate some ambrosia and left for the mess hall with Annabeth right behind me.
