Answer time: Celebrity bronze is how Miranda pronounces Celestial Bronze.
This story is based off of 7 Years Later by KK3908. You guys should check it out. She is an awesome writer!
Percy's POV:
I had just finished packing when Chiron knocked on my door.
"It's nice to have you back, Percy," he said.
"It's nice to be back, Chiron," I said.
"Would you mind being the sword instructor for this summer? Jonathon is very ill with the flu."
"Of course. That is what I'm best at, of course."
"Thank you."
"No problem."
"Did you know that Annabeth is also here this summer?" he asked.
My eyes got wide.
"Really?" I asked, excited.
"Yes, she is, but I don't think she's interested. She has a daughter to care for, now, Percy." He said, with a sly smile and a gleam in his eyes. I ignored it.
"I've met Miranda." I said.
His expression was surprised.
"Really?"
"Yeah. At Starbucks six months ago. We had a sort of run in."
"Oh." He looked like he couldn't believe something he just thought. "Well, I better get going, Percy. Miranda would like me to introduce her to some nature spirits.
"Okay?"
And, with that, he walked out. People have been confusing this last year.
Miranda's POV:
Chiron introduced me to some tree ladies! I'm so excited! Her name is Juniper and she is very pretty. We were telling each other about ourselves.
"You're really pretty, Juniper," I said. "Do you have a boyfriend?"
"Yes, I do." She said.
"What's his name?"
"Grover."
"Cool. What does he look like?"
"Well, he is a satyr. Half goat, half man. He's rather attractive. He's very nice. His best friend is your father, Perc-," she stopped herself, putting her hand on her mouth.
I looked at her skeptically.
"And where is your boyfriend located?" I asked her, pretending to be innocent.
"Come, look, I'll show you the directions, but I can't go too far from my tree." She said.
I smiled, knowing I'm going to find out who my daddy is.
"Hello, little girl." Grover, the goat man said.
"Hi." I said. He's going to be easy to manipulate.
"Well, I better get going." Juniper said.
"So, I hear you're friends with my daddy."
"Yeah. Percy's awesome. We've been friends since we were twelve years old." He said, but then realized he shouldn't have said something.
Okay, so my daddy's name is Percy.
"Well, it was nice getting information from you, Grover." I said, skipping off. He just stood there, mouth wide open.
When I was skipping around, I decided to go have a serious talk with Mommy.
Hey, guys, sorry this is a short chapter, but isn't Percy such a seaweed brain? He doesn't have a clue! And, plus, it looks like almost everyone else was in on the secret but Percy. Who knew Miranda had such a devious mind? I will probably upload another chapter later tonight. Hope you guys like this!
