Ch. 1-My name is Rachel
Rachel P.O.V
Hi! My name is Rachel E. Dare. A few summers ago I was you normal mortal who could see through the Mist. But that all changed when I met Percy Jackson. A cute green eyed demi-god. Well, on first meeting he almost killed me...but now we're all friends. At first I thought he was some weird kid. But soon I started to like him, a lot! And last summer before he ran off to save the world I kissed him. I hadn't meant to it just seamed the right thing to do! I mean I wasn't sure where he was going or if I would ever see him again. But it is now. I am the Oracle of Delphi and I am not allowed to date. Or any of the stuff that leads to. Yeah you get the idea. And it gets worse. I have this annoying, but cute sun god who gets jealous very easy. Like this one time, a guy tried to ask me directions and Apollo made him go poof. And by that I mean where he stood a pile of ash now was. I was so mad. But I don't hate Apollo, in fact the opposite! I am in love with him. Yes the "L" word. I mean who couldn't love his cocky smiled, his lushes blonde hair and those bright blue eyes. But of course there is no hope. I am just one girl and I am not even all that pretty or so I think. And a major fact HE IS A GOD! No not "God" a "god" lower case ''g''. Oh and with Percy, I got over him when I saw Apollo. And when he started dating Annabeth, I mean common Percabeth! Who couldn't love it? But me and Percy and still friends and so are me and Annabeth. But now they are off on some date in the city while I am sitting alone in the cave. Few people came here, unless they wanted a prophecy. Which I was alright with. But today I was really bored! And I was depressed. For today was my birthday! And no one has come to visit. I sighed and decided to got sit on the beach. When I got there everyone was gone from sight.
"Where is everyone?" I thought aloud. Just as I sat down, in a flash of bright light Apollo was there. He grinned at me, I stood.
"Oh, hello lord Apollo." I said with respect. He smiled.
"Hey, Rach. Whats up?" he said sitting next to me in the sand. I looked back at the rising sun. I sat back down.
"Nit much, and lord Apollo don't you have work to do?" I asked giving him a sly look. He grinned that amazing grin. And shrugged. I laughed. I waited for him to say something. Like oh I don't know "Happy Birthday!" but nothing. I sighed and stood up. I looked down to Apollo who was still siting.
"So what are you doing here anyway?" I questioned. He smiled and stood.
"What I can't visit my favorite Oracle?" he asked giving me a smile. I rolled my eyes. I looked back to camp. Still no one. I felt sad that no one, even Apollo has remembered that today is my birthday. I waved good-bye to Apollo and began to walk to the pavilion, it would be breakfast soon. I was about three steps away when Apollo grabbed my arm looking frantically at the pavilion. He smiled and let go.
"Hey, how about we spend some time together? I can take you out for food. Go for a ride in the sun chariot. Eh?" he asked snapping his fingers and his red car popped next to us. I looked back at camp. And then back at Apollo. I guess since I needed something to get my mind off the depressing day. I sighed.
"Okay, sure why not." I said walking to the passenger side. Apollo came and opened the door for me. He ran over and got in the drivers side and pulled on his sunglasses. He grinned as the engine flared to life. And then we took off fast speeds but not to fast, I could still look down and see the town. We flew past Mrs. Jackson..er..Bolfis's apartment. We flew by without any problems. Then we landed at a small cafe. Apollo walked over to me and took my hand like we were some couple. I blushed but hid it. A few girls glanced at Apollo. And I had to admit I wanted godly powers to smite them on the spot! And I even noticed a few guys glance at me. I smirked knowing it would tick Apollo off. We took a seat in the cafe and the waitress came and took our orders. Apollo said he would order for me. And he did a pretty good job: two cup of iced coffee and two slices of chocolate cheese cake. The waitress nodded and ran off. I finally looked to see what Apollo was wearing. A yellow V-neck t-shirt, white shorts and brown sandals. His blonde hair was a little messy but in a cute way, and behind his dark sunglasses were his beautiful luminescent blue eyes. I was nothing compared to his style. I had on a red shirt that had paint splattered on it, in a cool way not ugly. And torn bleached jeans. They two had a bit of paint on them. And my frizzy hair was pulled back in a messy braid. In someone's eyes it might look nice. But to me..eh..i couldn't care less. Not like I can date. And the only guy I like is a god! Apollo looked at me.
"Everything alright Rach?" he asked. I looked up snapped out of my thoughts. I smiled.
"Yeah everything I perfect!" I lied. Apollo raised his eye brow and was about to say something when the waitress came back and gave us our breakfast. I smiled and began to eat. The cheese cake was well...AWESOME! And with Apollo being there with me it made it all the more magnificent. I looked around. After becoming the oracle I got more worried about being watched. It is like monsters want to kill me more than demi-gods. But I knew that with Apollo here I wouldn't get hurt. Or at least I hoped! A phone rang and I realized it was Apollo's he sighed and opened it. I couldn't here any of the conversation. But when Apollo snapped the phone closed I guessed it wasn't good news. He sighed and stood. He walked up and paid for our food, he turned back to me.
"Sorry, Rachel. But I gotta go get some work done. Listen it won't take long. How about you go wait in central park! I will meet you there. Just go and relax for a while." he said as we walked out of the room. I felt disappointed. But I also felt glad that Apollo was going to be coming back. I nodded and waved as he drove off. I began to walk to central park. When I got there I sat at the closest bench. I waited. And before I knew a little girl had sat next to me. I felt nervous but she didn't look like a monster. She had long brown hair and looked to be around twelve. She had silvery cloths on. And when she looked at me with her eyes that were as silver as the moon. I knew who she was.
"Lady Artemis!" I exclaimed. She nodded and smiled. She held up her hand and a robin flew and landed on it, she smiled at it.
"Hello Rachel. How are you?" she asked as the bird flew away. I frowned.
"No offense lady Artemis, but I highly doubt you came to me to ask that." I said looking her in the eyes. She frowned too.
"I take no offense. And you are correct. I came to tell you a warning. I sense great danger for you my dear. You must keep your eyes open. Stay where it is safe." she said standing. I stopped her.
"Lady Artemis, I don't mean to doubt you. But why would you tell me this. Aren't gods not allowed to get involved?" I asked. She smiled slightly.
"This is true my dear. But I am not getting involved as a god, but as a sibling. My brother cares much for you. I have never seen him spend so much time with an oracle." she said grinning slightly. I felt my face turn red.
"Lady Artemis! I...uh...I mean...I" I tried to find words. But Artemis stopped me laughing.
"It is well child. But keep in mind. You are a maiden. It has always been that way. Nothing can change that and you can't give back the spirit of the oracle. Good-bye" she said vanishing. I sat and moped. Hearing those words are depressing. Almost like saying
''Yeah, your gonna die! Oh and Apollo might like you!'' I sighed.
Then Apollo was sitting next to me. I smiled at him. He frowned.
"What did sis want?" he asked. I looked at him in shock then looked away.
"Nothing, just wanted me to...ah...well, none of your business!" I said looking away. Apollo sighed. He stood. He checked his watch. By now it was around noon. His eyes widened.
"Rachel we gotta go!" he said pulling my up and running to his car. He pushed me in and ran to the drivers side. He jumped in slammed on the gas. The car lurched forward and took off. I sighed and sat back. I really didn't care where we went. I just wanted to forget what Artemis had said. And I didn't want to think of the question haunting my mind...
''Who is after me?''
