Okay guys i hope u liked the first chapter. it was kinda short but hopefully this one is longer!
Disclaimer: i DO NOT own the PJO characters! It would be cool if i did, but sadly, Rick Riordan was slightly ahead of me on that :P
Matts pov
We approached a hill with a tree wearing a golden cloak. All i could think is "Oh great, they are taking me to an insane asylum.", but then we got closer and there was a sign that said Camp Half-Blood. I was definitely suprised that i could read it. I have dyslexia. I have not ever been able to read things clearly. But that right there- that was crazy. As i was lost in thought, Justin caught my attention. "Dude, were here." He said. I realized the car stopped on the hill. I took my moms hand and tried to get her to come with me. "I can't." She said. "Mom of course you can. I'm not leaving you."
"Honey, that's awful sweet but i really can't. It's impossibles for mortals to get in."
"Mortals?"
"Yes dear, mortals. Justin will explain everything."
"But mom, you saw that thing. Your gonna get hurt!"
"Its not after me, Matt. It wants you."
Out of nowhere, the monster came. "NOO!" I yelled as the monster stepped on her like a bug. All that remained was dust. I fell to my knees and cried. Justin yelled, "HELLOOOO! THERES A MINOTAUR TRYING TO DESTROY US AND YOUR MOURNING ISNT HELPING!" I got up and ran over to Justin. "What are we supposed to do? Fight it?" I said. "Thats the plan" Justin pulled out a celestial bronze sword and handed it to me. I looked at the sword and raged for a sec, after being reminded that it killed mom. I ran up to it and lunged. I missed, sadly. It tried to grab me but i slipped out of his grip and ran behind a tree. It ran into the tree and got his horns stuck. While it was stuck I ran beside it and sliced his neck and he also turned to dust. "Aw man your the second demigod to ever kill that thing!" Justin said "Demigod?" "Oops i let that one slip the tongue. Ill tell you later. But right now, we need to get to Chiron.
Now i knew this had to be a dream. When we got to "Chiron" I saw that he had a horses body. I was freaking out when i heard about this demigod crap. But i was also kinda happy because, possibly, i may find out who my father is! But Im not sure i believe that he will have some sorta power. Justin's mom is Aphrodite. No wonder he's a chick magnet! He told me he was using that chocolate Axe stuff! I was wondering why all the girls STILL went to him instead of me.
We were walking and talking about all of this stuff and then all of a sudden, i saw her. A beautiful blonde, about 2 inches shorter than me, and all the rest of her was absolutely flawless. And pretty good with a sword might I add. "Who is she?" I said drooling like a dog. "Thats Katerina Livingston. Keep dreaming. We have all chased after her and we have all failed. Shes a daughter of athena by the way. And though they are all the same, she seems to be slightly smarter than the rest. Well, besides Annabeth Chase." I looked down. "Dangit! Man, will you at least introduce me to her?" "If you insist. Your not gonna get her though. She will probably reject you like the rest of us"
Justin and I approached her and i said "Hey.". She turned and put her sword to my throat. She looked at me as i trembled with fear and she put her sword down. "Uh, sorry. You must be new. People shouldn't talk to me while i practice. Its dangerous. I'm Katerina by the way.". She smiled at me. She had a beautiful smile too. Oh, the irony. "Erm... uh, I'm... uh.." I turned and whispered to Justin. "whats my name? I forgot my name!" "Uh, Katerina, this is Matt. Hes kinda shy, haha.". She laughed "I can see that. Its a pleasure to meet you, Matt. You can call me Kat if you want.". I smiled "Uh, okay. Well, we will let you get back to practice.". We backed away slowly.
Justin took me to the cabins. He said i would be staying in the Hermes cabin until we found out who my godly parent is. It was so crowded in there. It was kinda sad seeing all the unclaimed kids. These two twin brothers walked up to me. "Hey I'm Connor Stoll. This is my brother, Travis." He held his hand out for me to shake. "I'm Matt." I said grabbing his hand to shake it. I was then shocked. "Ow!" I said. "Classic", Travis said high-fiving (A/N: spelling?) his brother, forgetting he had the buzzer. He was also shocked. I laughed. "So has anybody given you the grand tour?", Connor asked. "Actually, my friend, Justin is a half-blood. He gave me a tour." I said, hoping that there was not more for them to show me. I feared they had more pranks up their sleeves. "Well, have you met Percy?" Travis said.
"Nope"
"Do you wanna meet him?"
"I guess."
"Okay c'mon then!"
We walked over to the Poseidon cabin. The door was open. The guy inside, ironically, was the flippin kid from my dream! He was inside talking to a chick that looked similar to Kat. They looked kinda like sisters. I thought for a sec and remembered Justin said something about a girl named Annabeth. This was probably her. The guy was about to kiss Annabeth but Connor knocked on the wall. "Hey Percy, we got a newbie." The guy, which i guessed was Percy, said "Okay. Annabeth, uh, maybe we can finish this conversation later?" "Okay. see you at dinner.", she said and left. We walked in. "Hey newbie, I'm Percy", he said. I got kinda angry but i sounded chill as i said, "The names Matt. I wish everybody would quit calling me newbie. It makes me feel kinda like an outcast." "Oh, sorry man. I didn't mean to offend you."
"Its cool."
"So how do you like camp so far?"
"It's alright. I only know a few people."
"Well, have you met Annabeth?"
"Not directly. My friend Justin told me about her."
"What did he say about her?"
"He just told me she was the smartest Athena kid here."
"Okay so he didn't say anything bad?"
"Nope"
"Good"
I realized Connor and Travis left me here with Percy. Percy noticed too. He looked at his watch. Its time for dinner.
We walked over to the dining pavilion and along the way, talked about my possible parents. He pointed to Connor and Travis. "Thats where youll be sitting. Well, until we find out who your parent is." He went to his table. He sat there all alone. I found it kinda sad. When sitting with Connor and Travis, we talked about the pranks weve pulled in our lives. Theirs always seemed to beat mine. For the first time, I felt like i had been outsmarted in the prank world. I used to be a prank genius until I met them. They offered to teach me. And, of course, i accepted.
We had to go to this fire and dump some food into the flames for the Gods. I asked quietly to myself "Please? Tell me who you are, Dad."
I hope you guys liked it! It was longer than the first chapter at least :D
