Hey guys! As you can see, I'm kinda on a chapter streak. My internet stopped working so I had no distractions to stop me from updating. So enjoy!
Chapter 8
As I flew off into the night, I looked at database that was installed into my right forearm and looked at my target's information.
Target: Echidna
Status: Immortal and is currently at San Francisco in 'The Wolf House.'
Reason: She's a monster and has a lone demigod captive.
Demigod that needs rescuing:
Name: Aine Scathach O'Durren (nicknamed Tempest)
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Godly Parent: Nemesis
History: She was born to a wealthy Scotsman named Niallan O'Durren. When she was 13, they moved to Tennessee. She was kicked out of the house a month later.
Why she ran away: Her father didn't want her.
Weapons: an Olympian Silver (what the Hunters use) claymore (Revenge) and a Stygian Iron whip with a black leather grip
Strength: She is very persuasive and alluring. Very graceful and agile.
Weakness: She is DEATHLY afraid of hellhounds.
Fighting Style: She uses her agility and intimidation.
Looks: She is a rare and striking beauty with long, straight, silky jet black hair that reaches her lower back, and stunning almond shaped eyes (not Asian shaped) that are a striking steel gray with flecks of black and silver eyes framed by long, feathery eyelashes. She has full lips that are always smirking. Her flawless alabaster skin is barely tanned. She is slender, yet curvaceous and is fairly muscled in her upper arms. She has slender hands and long nails (not too long). She is tall (5'9") and is long-legged. She has three thin scars on her right thigh from a knife. She has a perfect bust. She always smells of intoxicating vetiver, with hints of wintergreen. She has perfect, straight white teeth.
Clothing: a silky black off-the-shoulder top that exposes her stomach and collarbone, dark steel gray denim boot-cut jeans, black heeled boots, and a silver belt that hangs off her waist
Relations: None, father died.
Other: Do what you want as long as you save the girl and kill the monsters at the camp.
I shook my head as I continued flying. Some crazy detail report Chaos gave me. I was checking through some files in the database when I ran straight into a pine tree.
I lost unconscious and fell at least 20 feet, but a sturdy branch stopped my fall to 5 feet. I landed straight on back, knocking the wind straight out of me.
I sat up and groaned. I would fly straight into a tree. I got up and brushed the leaves and dirt off of my clothes and started walking towards my destination.
You guys must be wondering why I couldn't just fly, but that's what makes me not invincible. If I get hurt badly or roughly, then I can't use the power I got hurt with for 3 hours.
Two hours later, I finally crossed the border of California. In the distance, I see a forest meaning a refuge I can build. I stumbled in the forest not caring if I attracted monsters. I was too tired.
As soon as I found a clearing, I made the same exact tent appear and I crashed on the bed. As I was falling asleep, I heard growling and leaves crunching.
I jumped up and ran outside. I tried to stay focus, but I jumped up too fast and I was exhausted from traveling on foot to coast to coast. As I tried to suppress the headache I was having, I saw wolves coming out of nowhere, all different colored coats.
They formed a circle around me with only one space open in front of me. Then the biggest and most deadliest wolf of then all came out of the shadows and filled the empty space.
I instantly became wary and got into a fighting stance, but I knew I couldn't beat them all. I probably couldn't beat the wolf in front of me.
The wolf stared me down before a bright light illuminated from her and suddenly a beautiful woman with sharp canines replaced the wolf.
My eyes widened when I saw the transformation but it was soon replaced with a smirk. Being the stupid person I am, I said. "So you're the biggest, baddest wolf in town? I'm pretty sure I saw bigger."
She growled and said. "Arrogant mortal! Bring him to our camp the hard way."
I acted shock. "Don't I get to choose whether the hard or easy way?"
She transformed back into the big wolf and immediately every wolf leaped at me and all went black.
When I woke up, I was tied to a pole in the middle of working men and women. I cleared my throat and all of them looked at me. "Can I speak to the big bad wolf please?"
Immediately, two wolves ran off into the woods howling. Ten seconds later they came back with the woman. The woman walked up to me and punched me in the face.
"You don't speak unless spoken to. Do you understand!?" The woman snarled.
I nodded serious. "Yes ma'am."
She looked me in the eyes trying to look for sarcasm, but when she couldn't she looked away. "You are our prisoner until we find a way to take over our home back."
"What is your home called?" I said as it dawned on me.
She glared at me but answered anyway. "The Wolf House mortals call it."
My eyes widened. "I'm supposed to help you guys! Chaos sent me to rescue a girl and kill the monsters inhabited in 'The Wolf House'!"
Her eyes widened. "Swear on Chaos' name if what you say is true."
"I swear on Chaos' name." I said bored.
Thunder boomed and she looked at me ready for me to get turned into ashes. BUT after a couple minutes of waiting she growled and turned to the others. "Cut him down and send him to me." And she ran into the forest.
The two wolfs that got her turned into humans and cut me down with their silver swords. They grabbed me roughly by my shoulders and guided me to where the lady went.
When we reached there, they threw me into a cave that looked like it was made into a home. I got up and turned around to glare at the two wolves, but they were gone. I stretched my shoulders and went down the long passage way. The farther I went, the more light I saw. Finally I reached a huge cave that was made into a room.
In the middle sat the lady. She looked up at me and stood up.
"Chaos told me you were coming. He also told me to give you a gift if you succeed in destroying the monsters and saving that demigod."
I nodded. "So I'm doing it by myself?"
She nodded. "Alright. I'll leave when I retain my powers in the meantime I need to rest."
She nodded and pointed down another long tunnel on my left. You will sleep there. I look forward to seeing you again Perseus." Then she vanished.
So guys that is the chapter! Hope you liked it! Don't forget to review! :)
