here we go, folks. this is two years ahead my dudes
Percy sat on a worn floor, eating an Uncrustable he stole from a gas station. He was on watch while Thalia slept. Jason however, sat on his lap and ate a granola bar. Percy was on watch for monsters and police. Jason couldn't sleep because of nightmares, so he just joined his oldest sibling.
Jason and Percy finished eating, so they started playing patty cake. They did that to pass time. Percy heard someone shuffling around outside, so he stopped suddenly and got a tiny hand to the face. He shushed Jason and looked to his right, where Thalia should've been sleeping, but she wasn't there. He felt his heart quicken and he stood up quickly, gently setting down Jason, who clung to his hand.
Percy looked around warily, taking out a golden dagger. From behind him, there was a loud scream from Thalia that ended abruptly. He gasped and put Jason on his shoulders, running to where he heard the sound.
There was Thalia, being held by a kid with short blonde hair and mischievous piercing blue eyes. Beside him was a girl with blonde hair and analyzing gray eyes, trying to calm Thalia down.
Percy pointed his knife at the boy, and Jason pointed a very sharp stick at the girl. "Let her down." The two growled at the same time. They took a moment to stop being intimidating and gave each other a high five before settling glares on the two again.
"Hey look, we're just taking her to somewhere safe, okay? This area isn't safe, it's covered with monsters." The boy said while the girl held up hands in surrender, smiling at Jason gently just because she liked kids younger than herself.
"She's safe with us, now please give me my sister." Percy told them, stepping closer. The boy sighed and let Thalia go. Thalia ran over and hugged her brother, who felt like crying as he almost lost the little sister he promised to protect.
"Well fine. But can you all come with us? We promise that it's much safer than here. Your little brother can have a lot of other kids to play with." The girl reasoned. Percy thought for a moment before nodding.
"Alright fine, but can you at least tell us who you are?"
"I'm Luke Castellan, nice to meet you."
"I'm Annabeth Chase, sorry we had to meet like this."
Percy nodded, shaking Luke's hand with a stern 'Mess-with-my-family-again-I-dare-you' stare. "Alright cool, so what's this safe place called?" Percy asked, looking between the two.
Annabeth and Luke smiled at each other, "Camp Half-Blood."
And after that, they were on their way.
