When we got to the archery range free time was just beginning and the sun was setting. Chiron was the only one there.
"Chiron." Lee said.
He turned around. "Ah Steph, Lee, hows the tour?"
"Good, but we need to show you something."
"Wait, I see Steph has a quiver full of arrows. Has she picked her weapon?" Lee had brought me back to the armory and got me a white quiver tha hung at my hip that was full of arrows. There was a pocket to hold on to a sword, but I didnt have on yet.
"Well thats what this is about." I said. I pulled out the Ipod and opened up the archery app. There was a flash and Chiron's eyes got big.
"That's amazing, but is it truly of worth to you?"
"What do you mean? It came out of no were and appeared with me, Connor and Travis pointed it out last night. At least, I hope it really belongs to me."
"I would too." Chiron said.
"Well, what do I do?"
"Lee, show her how its done."
"Got it." Lee said. He walked to a red line. "Okay Steph come stand in front of me." I walked over. "Stand with your feet this far apart, keep your shoulders in line with your waist. Then when you aim do it like this, left arm straight with your pointer finger along the arrow and your thumb up like your giving your target well, a thumbs up. Your right arm pulls the arrow back like this middle and pointer fingers pulling the string against the arrow. Your elbow up like his. Line your jaw with the arrow like this, and lock eyes on your target and, let go." Lee kept his stance as the arrow flew, he hit the middle of the bull's eye with incredible accuracy. He looked at me "But if your target is farther like this," he backed up to a yellow line. "aim just a bit above the target like this." He set himself up again pulled the arrow "Aim about a inch higher then were you want to hit." The arrow sailed through the air and hit in the same spot.
"Wow."I said.
"Seem hard?" Lee asked.
"I could try."
I walked to the red line and stood with my feet apart. I took the arrow and set my hands up.
"Your doing pretty good." Lee said. I smiled. I brought my right arm up and pulled back with my left. I let go. The arrow sailed throw the air and hit the bottom of bull's eye.
"Perfect!" Chiron said. "You know what this means right?"
"That I'm living up to my last name?"
Chiron chuckled and put a hand on my shoulder. "No child, this could mean we are one step closer to having your father realize who you are."
"Fred said the same thing..." I whispered.
"Whose Fred?" Lee asked. "Are you having dreams?"
"It doesn't feel like a dream."
"Tell us child." Chiron said.
"Well, when my mom was driving us here, I didn't know were we were going, I fell asleep and I was standing on a mountain with all the statues on it. With men and women and all these creepy monsters, then there was this guy playing a lyre that just talked to me. It was weird it was like I was controlling the dream, and and we would sit there and talk. But he knew everything about me. My fears, what I love, what I hate and my secrets like, EVERYTHING about me. He said he knew about my brother too. I haven't told anyone."
"I think I know whats happening." Lee said.
"What?" I asked
"Before I was claimed, my dad started contacting me through my dreams under a false identity, saying his names was Kyle.I think your dad is doing the same for you and your brother."
"But if hes doing this why hasn't he claimed me and Aaron yet?"
"Its hard for gods to claim there kids sometimes cause there so busy, but you could be claimed at dinner."
"When is dinner?"
"After I teach you some more archery."
