Thalia POV :)
I was extremely surprised to find out that both Percy and Nico had gotten brothers. I wish I could have another sibling. Maybe there's already a brother or sister of mine here and they just haven't been claimed yet? I was even more surprised (if that's possible) to find that my new cousins and a few others all had wings! Fang and Iggy even showed me how they had huge fourteen-foot wing spans! I have such awesome cousins!
Percy told me what the teams were for capture the flag (the Hermes cabin joined up with our team right before lunch. Travis and Connor went to Malcolm), and I told them all about the monsters I've been hunting with Lady Artemis since last year.
Fang and Iggy only mentioned Max once or twice (well, Iggy only mentioned her once or twice, Fang told me everything about her), but from what I heard about her, she was super cool. I want to meet this girl!
After lunch, us Big Three's went for a little sparring in the arena. Fang was an awesome hand-to-hand fighter, and a natural with his twin stygian iron blades, I could see that Nico was happy to have an awesome older brother like him, even through his freezing mask of ice. (Nico, get off of me! Who's narrating here?)
I can't say much for Iggy, he chose not to fight since he was blind.
When we finally got to the evening campfire, my heart was beating with the excitement of capture the flag, my fave game. As soon as Chiron's announcements, every single camper flooded out to the field, hurriedly putting on armor and checking weapons. I patted my quiver to make sure it was still there. Just a weird habit of mine.
The whistle blew and I raced forward with my partner, Max (I had asked), we'd been put on offense, so our job was to find the flag.
"Okay," I said, "just fly up over the trees, and try to find the flag. When you get back just tell me where it is, and we'll kick the defense's arse, grab the flag, and be across the boundary before they can call for backup."
Max nodded curtly and extended her beautiful brown and white speckled wings. She leapt gracefully into the air and arced over the treetops.
I was amazed that demigod powers went into having wings. For sure, if I were to have a sister, it would be her.
After a few seconds, Max landed beside me once more. "That way," she pointed in the direction of Zeus's fist. "There are five guards: two Hunters and three campers around the base of a large rock."
"Great," I acknowledged, "now we run, be quick, be quiet." I sped off on the direction Max had pointed out, weaving in and out of the thick trees. Max was keeping pace with me as easily as one might a toddler.
On short notice, I stopped just before the clearing with the flag and held my hand out to stop Max.
"Wait," I said, pulling two arrows from my quiver and nocking them. Aiming carefully, I loosed the arrows on either side of Zeus's fist where they exploded on impact. "Now!"
Max darted out of the tree cover and whipped out her wings, soaring to where the flag was with her bo staff at the ready. I kept the guards busy with exploding arrows.
We burst through the flora near the boundary line, but were met a group of Ares kids, including Clarisse.
"Fun ends here, punks," Clarisse spat at me as she charged. The rest of her siblings went for Max, who was using the flag as a bo staff, having put her own away.
Clarisse jabbed at me with her electric spear which I barely felt when the jolt went through m body.
I smirked at Clarisse, "Did you seriously just try to electrocute the daughter of the god of lightning?" I drew my knife and sliced off her spearpoint, then kicked her in the chest, winding her.
I looked to see how Max was faring. The Ares cabin was showing no mercy, making sure she wasn't able to get into the air.
As I watched, Max quickly began fighting more and more vigorously. Then, to my amazement, lightning came down from the sky and struck her attackers, and a holographic lightning bolt hovered in the air over her head! The symbol of my father, Zeus. Yes! I knew she would be my sister!
Max POV
I was battling towards the river as hard as I could to win the game. I felt electricity crackling through me, and my opponents either fell, or stood back. At this point I could care less why children of the war god would stop attacking. I ran over the river and started celebrating the win on my own.
After a while, I realized that no one else was cheering over our victory, but rather, just staring at me. . . or. . . above me? I looked up just in time to see the lightning bolt over my head disappear.
I was stunned and exhilarated at the same time as Chiron came over with Lady Artemis, both loking quite agitated. But I didn't care, now I had at least one parent and I had a sister!
Thalia ran over to me, "We're officially sisters!" she exclaimed. "Now I have a real sister!"
Chiron took my hand and raised it to the air for everyone to see. "Ladies and Gentlemen, Maximum Ride, daughter of Zeus!"
Thanks for reading this chapter everyone! Thank you to all my awesome followers and reviewers! I had one reviewer tell me Max should become a Hunter. If you want that, please review and tell me. Also, tell me what the matchups should be! I have one vote for Fang/Max.
