Hey. I was really suprised to get the rest of my reviews before midnight last night. I promise I will try to keep up the reviews, but I think I should tell you something. On Friday, July 27, I am going to my cabin for 2 weeks, and won't be back til the middle of August. And there is no internet. So I will try to get the rest of the chapters transfered from paper to computor. I only have about 5 more written, and chapter 20 is still in progress. And there's this little cafe in town, that has free wi-fi, so I will try to get there as often as possible, but keep in mind, though I may have just had a birthday, I'm still not old enough to drive. Anyway, now that you understand my situation, please keep that in mind, come friday. Now, here's chapter 14. Enjoy!
Annabeth POV:
I had expected gasps, laughter, maybe even a sarcastic "Yeah, right," or two. Instead, we recived silence. Everyone had a look of shock on their face, mixed with pure disbelief, except for Percy, Edward, and Angela, who had already known our secret.
Alice was the first to come out of her shocked and frozen postion. "Bella," she said, "why didn't you tell us you had a twin? I could've kept the secret. You know that."
Bella got up from her seat and moved to the other end of the table so that she could give Alice a hug. "I know Alice. I'm so sorry. Believe me, if I could've told you, I would've. I just wasn't allowed to. Please believe me when I say that I wante to tell you. I wanted to tell all of you about Annabeth, but I couldn't. My mother and her family would have literaly killed us, and then destroyed you, for knowing. I just didn't want to put any of you in danger like that."
"Wait," Jacob said, coming out of his shocked state, just before the rest of the Cullens. "You said that your mother and her family would've destroyed us. What do you mean? We've all met Renee, and she wouldn't hurt a fly. Since the two of you are twins, and your dad is Charile, wouldn't Renee be Annabeths mom, too?"
Bella walked back to her chair between Edward and myself. "That's another secret that you all need to know. Do you remember when we studied the Greek myths in class? You know Ulysses, Medusa, Zeus?" They all nodded. "Well, they're true. And they're still alive today, and in America. And we're - Annabeth, Percy, and myself - are some of their children."
Bella POV:
"Aren't, like, all the gods related in someway?" Emmett asked.
"Yes," Percy answered.
"So, like, wouldn't that make datingm you know..." Emmett trailed off, not sure how to finish his sentence. Next to me, I heard Edward growl, but low enough so that I was the only human that could hear it. Typical. It didn't really suprise me that Emmett would ask a question like that.
"Not really," I answered.
"It would only be werid if it was your half-sibling," Annabeth continued. "So if you don't share the same godly parent, it's perfectly fine. So if your like Percy and me, who don't have the same godly parent, it's cool to go for it."
"Who are your godly parents?" Angela asked us. I couldn't help but notice that she was holding Jacob'[s hand under the table. Had Jacob possibly imprinted on her? It would be really sweet if they did.
"Mine and Bella's mom is Athena, goddess of wisdom and battle stragety," Annabeth said. Just then, thunder rumbled overhead.
"Sorry, Mom," I called. Everyone but Percy and Annabeth stared at me as if I was crazy. I just shrugged. "We offeneded her. Whenever you offened the gods, thunder rumbles overhead, and you have to appoligze, or be cursed with bad luck." They all nodded, like they understood.
Annabeth POV:
"So who's your godly parent, Percy?" Jacob asked.
Percy looked uncomfortable for a moment. He didn't really like telling people who his father was. It made him feel like he was throwing his weight around, or he was just showing off, like he was trying to be the popular kid. Finally, he opened his mouth. "My dad is Posiden," he said.
Everyone looked at him in admiration, and Percy started to look even more uncomfortable. Before I could step in and say anything to save him though, Bella spoke up. "Guys, I know that you still have a lot more quetsions, but Annabeth and I need to tell you something. It's time we told you the truth about our backrounds, and stop lying to you."
Oh, cliff hanger. I made it so that the past is kinda cool. It's a cross between both books. I think that you might like it. Anyway, what did you think? Any good? I'm sorry that I didn't torture Percy the last few times, but I have no time. I'm so crazy busy, and I'm writing these authors notes as fast as I can, so that way I can get you the next chapter on time. So review! Show me how much you want chapter 15, baby!
