A/N: I have nothing important to say. This story is mostly about confusion, but oh boy, on second story is where the real love problems begin. *evil laugh* Oh, yeah I'm sorry if the last chapter had a lot of grammar issues, but like I said it was 12 in the morning! So, on with the story! P.S: The whole gang is 15 the only reason Valerie wasn't in high school yet was because I wanted to add a twist but don't worry she will be at the year she is supposed to be in the next story, and yes Percy and Valerie are twins. You might ask why is Percy 15 he is supposed to be 16? But hey, my story my twist. Let's just pretend the prophecy was when he was 15.
Disclaimer: I do NOT own PJATO or HoO. I own the daughter of Poseidon, a.k.a Valerie Dell.
Chapter Six
Why Me?
Rachel's POV
I woke up to lighting and rain. It's weird. Zeus must have been mad. I looked at my clock. Dang it! I'm late for the meeting. I quickly got dressed and ran with an umbrella to the Big House. When I got there everyone was there even Silena and Beckenford except for Percy and Valerie.
"Ah, nice you can join us Ms. Dare, please take a seat," Chiron told. I quickly got to my seat next to Chiron. Five minutes later Percy came in. He was dry even though he doesn't have an umbrella. There goes the perk of being a son of Poseidon. Percy looked bad, he had dark circles under his eyes and his black hair was messier than usual. Then came Valerie, oh gods. She looks awful; Percy looks fine compare to her. Her dark circles that are always under her eyes no matter how much sleep she gets, but today they're darker than usual. Her eyes were bloodshot. Her bangs that always cover her forehead are all out of place and wet. Unlike Percy she didn't care, she was wet all over. Her hands were rolled into fists. She noticed we were staring.
"What?" she asked. We all shook our heads. She sit down next to Percy.
"Questions?" Chiron asked. Annabeth raised her hand. Typical daughter of Athena wanting to know things. Thunder rumbled in the distance. I just rolled my eyes. Chiron nodded toward Annabeth.
"What do you mean that Valerie was blessed first, I mean wasn't Percy born first?"
"It all started when the gods put their blessing in a jar, they had a contest to see will keep the jar, and Poseidon won and gave it to Valerie because he knew the gods were going to bless Percy. Percy was blessed right before the titan war," Chiron explained.
"How come she's my sister and I didn't know about her?" Percy asked.
"You see Percy, you and Valerie were separated from birth. Sally was made in 2. One was with you and the other one was with Valerie. You and Valerie are twins"
"Why were we separated?"
"Because of Zeus, do I have to say more?" Percy shook his head.
"Very well, now on to business, we are in need of two quests. Who would like to volunteer for the first one?" Chiron asked. Jason raises his hand. Chiron raised an eyebrow.
"Jason you want to lead the first quest?" Chiron asked. Jason shook his head and said,
"No, I think Valerie should lead it." Valerie shot him a glare, but he didn't back down.
"She would prove herself and she would learn the dangers of being a demigod." Jason continued. I swear it looks like he has the power of charmspeak instead of Piper. Chiron seemed to consider this. I don't think those are the only reasons Jason volunteered Valerie, like it was all part of a plan.
"Valerie would you like to lead the quest?" Valerie seemed to know Jason trapped her and she couldn't say no. She just nodded and then sent a glare to Jason.
"Very well, you may have 2 people to accompanied you," Chiron explained. Valerie seemed to think about it and then had an evil glint in her eyes. She closed her eyes and immediately she was dry. Percy smiled. Finally, she spoke up, "Leo Valdez would you come with me?" Leo seemed shocked but then nodded, Jason just sent him a glare, but Leo didn't notice. Then Valerie turned to Jason, she smirked and said, "Jason Grace." Piper's jaw dropped. Jason's eyes were wide; this was not part of his plan. He noticed he was trapped just like he trapped Valerie. He glared at her and then nodded. It was Leo turn to glare.
"Very well, the quest is about this." Chiron said. He reached under the table and came up with a…. gift?
"Is that a present, so the quest is to a party? We weren't invited! We can't just crash a party like that!" Leo exclaimed. I laughed some people joined me. Chiron rolled his eyes.
"It's a present form Boreas god of the North Wind to Notus god of South and Southwest. It is or his birthday, last time he forgot his birthday the winds were super hot on the summer," Chiron explained.
"Where is he?" Piper asked. Probably wanting to know how much Jason and Valerie are going to travel together.
"Well since Boreas is in Canada," Chiron started but Annabeth cut him off.
"Then Notus is in Mexico," Annabeth finished. Leo and Valerie smile at each other, but then Leo frowned.
"Wait I don't get it, if Percy and Valerie are twins, then how come only Valerie is Hispanic?" Leo asked. He did have a point there.
"When Sally met Poseidon he was coming back from a festival in Mexico, so Poseidon was dressed as a Hispanic (A/N: No racism here) and the heritage was passed down to Valerie and the part of Sally that stayed with Valerie lived in Mexico. Also although they are twins, Percy was born in Manhattan and Valerie in Mexico, but Percy is the oldest only with 45 seconds." Chiron explained.
"Okay stop there, anyone have an Advil, cause I have a serious headache," Leo said.
"Okay, well my family is really messed up, but I really want to go into detail on how I was born, so what's the second quest?" Valerie asked. Some of us laughed.
"Ah, yes the second is about an immortal that was captured by Atlas's minions in Mount Tamalpais," Chiron said. Percy seemed like he was just shocked. Valerie put a hand on his shoulder and muttered something in his ear, he just nodded. Can I tell you a secret? I like Percy. Yup, me Rachel Elizabeth Dare has a crush on Percy Jackson. I know he's dating Annabeth, and I feel guilty for my feelings. Hey, I can't control my feelings, don't get all on my hair!
"Who would like to lead this quest," Chiron asked. Almost immediately Percy raised his hand.
"Anyone object?" Chiron asked. Nobody object.
"Very well who would you like to take?"
Percy didn't hesitate. "Rachel and Annabeth," he said. My jaw dropped. He WANTED ME! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! RACHEL! Control yourself, you are the Oracle od Delphi you have to professional about this things. I was snapped back to reality when Chiron called me out.
"Do you accept Rachel?" Chiron asked.
"Yay! Uh, I mean yes," I said. Percy smiled at me. Ahh his dazzling smile. Rachel snap out of it!
"Rachel, if you would do the pleasure," Chiron asked. I nodded. Before I could go all green mist Delphi mode. I thought, I'm going to a quest with Percy and his girlfriend. She is so lucky she gets to date him. Why do I have to fall in love? Why can't he love me back? Why me?
A/N: Yup that's all folks! Guys I want to say thank you to Thalico-freak-99-Hecatejewel, FireOpals, PiperDiAngelo-ImNotInnocent, and Melikecake. Is these reviews that keeps me going. Thank You next Annabeth's POV! BYE! XD
