Chapter 2
I'm a demi-god, Who knew?
The giants were heading towards me. I looked around and saw the boy's sword lying only a few feet away from me. I lunged at the sword, but as soon as I was about to grab the bronze sword, it dissipated right in my hand. I then saw the boy also lying a few feet from me. I rolled over in his direction while also dodging the fist of a giant slamming into the ground only a foot away from where I currently was. Then I leaped/crawled over to where the boy was and woke him up. Once he was awake, we both noticed the giant running towards us. He got up and went for his pocket again and, out of my surprise, pulled out the pen/sword.
The boy then ran towards the car, but also to my surprise, fell back after a loud thud. He got back up looking confused. The a form shimmered into visibility in front of him. The form was a girl, a blonde girl with stormy gray eyes at that. Then they both spoke simultaneously in a hushed and surprised tone.
"Percy?" said the girl who had appeared out of nowhere.
"Annabeth?" said the boy who seemed to be protecting me.
Then they both realized the loud thumping that was getting closer and closer.
"RING!!" the end of the school day bell went off and kids came pouring out the school, 5 at a time.
The giant turned to notice the kids coming his way. The ones who noticed the giant, who was now running in my direction, stopped and ran away. Soon there was a loud commotion of all the kids, running and screaming away from the fight. I guess they saw what I saw. A huge ugly THING running towards me.
I saw the girl who I presume to be Annabeth and the boy named Percy both race towards the two giants. Annabeth had a bronze knife in her hand and a New York Yankees cap in the other. She then put on the Yankees cap, and suddenly disappeared.
Then Percy ran in front of a giant and let it attack, the at the last moment he rolled in between the legs, jumped and stabbed the beast in the back.
Then the other giant ran to me. I tried to run or at least help out in the fight a little. Then the beast suddenly exploded into a yellow cloud of dust, and standing behind that pile of dust was the girl Annabeth, with her Yankees cap in hand.
Percy then ran towards me and said, "You need to follow me. I'm going to take you to a special camp for kids like us. I'll explain in the car. Now hurry up!" he said while running towards the school parking lot. Then Annabeth followed. I quickly decided, "Well, it's either follow them or be killed by monsters. Follow them," and I dashed towards the parking lot.
The girl then started to yell, "Taxi!" Within a minute a taxi was in front of us and we started to get into it. She then said to go to Long Island Sound.
We were on our way and Percy started to talk. He said, "What's your name?"
"Derek Del Rio," I stated.
"Do you want to know about where we're going?"
"Yeah."
"Alright then. Do you know about the ancient Greek Gods and stuff? They're still alive. When they said immortal, they meant immortal. Now Mount Olympus is on top of the Empire State Building, and the Underworld in under L.A. Oh, and also, you're a child of one of those gods."
"Yeah, I'm a demi-god and you're the easter bunny."
"No, I'm deadly serious," He said with an extremely stern look.
"Ok then. So you're the kid of who?"
"Poseidon."
"And you?"
"Athena, Goddess of Wisdom," she said formally.
"And me?"
"Undetermined," they both said simultaneously.
"Ok, and where are we going again?"
"Camp Half-Blood, a camp for demi-gods like us, that is protected by magical borders so that monster won't attack us, unless the ones that are stocked in the woods for a challenge for the campers."
Then the rest of the ride was silent.
