Quests

"Bye Mom." Luke raised his hand awkwardly, and sheepishly smiled at his parents.

"Mommy, I wanna go!" Carter cried, running to Luke and grabbing his hand.

"Cart, you know you can't go. This is only for big kids," Annabeth said gently, reaching out and taking Carter's hand from Luke's. Luke just sadly smiled, and waved bye to them once again, before walking past the border of Camp Half-Blood.

Percy sighed, and wrapped his arm around Annabeth, pulling her closer. "They're so old now. Luke's going on his first quest, and Carter killed his first monster...I feel so old."

"Ahem," Silena cleared her throat.

"And, of course, my baby girl is still my baby girl."


Honestly, this is the series of stories I'm most proud of.
