Chapter Two
~Just a Regular Day of Summer Camp for Kids Who had God Blood in Them~
This day started, say, three years ago? Yups, that's the day. The six of us were sitting in the dinning pavilion. Chiron decided that the different gods kids really shouldn't be so separated so we can sit wherever we want now. We were talking about how badly we wanted to go on a quest. No one has gone in twenty years- since Percy and Annabeth saved the world. So far, there was no threats what-so-ever.
Or, so we thought.
That day started the end. A peaceful, bright, happy conversation about how it's unfair that the new generation of half-bloods couldn't have adventures like the heroes before us.
"Yeah, I don't get this. We are the children of today, the leaders of tomorrow and the adults tell us what to do? We control THEIR future!" I said, totally off topic.
"Dude, we're talking about the quest we want to go on. Like, really badly!" replied Chance, looking at me like I was crazy. I sat by Taylor, Taylor sat by Briana, and on the other side, was Chance, Mia, and Micah. Six was all we needed. Perfectly even. But things don't always stay perfect forever. Like the arrival of the mystery girl or the rise of a Titan.
"Okay, if I go on a quest, and only three people could come, it would be me, Taylor, and John to come," said Briana, blushing at the mention of John's name. Her grandfather's Poseidon, and John's dad was Poseidon so in a way there cousins, but that didn't keep them from dating. The two are the youngest of the group at age eleven.
"You know, I would take Briana and Nichole. Preferably to save a Victoria's Secret somewhere in this mess-up world," said Taylor. Yup, she's an Aphrodite. Believe it or not, she's the un-girliest Aphrodite ever.
"Wow, Taylor. To save a Victoria Secrets. If I could go on a quest, I would bring me, Mia, and probably John to save the world from some rampaging monster," Chance said, looking at Briana. He said John in fancy way just to make Briana's blush redden. "Speaking of John, were is he?" Chance asked, looking up and down every table.
Training for some tournament he's trying to enter. I really think he's going to get himself hurt in those tournaments, considering his competition is all twice his size. He was going to get squished like a bug, but hey, he's my best friends little brother so I had to support him in everything he ever does, or at least pretend I do.
"Micah, who would you bring on your quest and what would it be for?" I asked, looking at our Asian daughter of Khione. Her dad was Asian but her skin was pale and her hair was snow white. Micah took a deep sigh and thought for a few minutes. More like thirty minutes. Okay, I'm exaggerating but it did take awhile, with no help from my ADHD.
"I would bring me, John-"
"But he's not a half-blood!" I pointed out.
"But he's a pretty good dang fighter. Best mortal fighter I know. Besides Chuck Norris. So, John and Mia," concluded Micah.
"Jesus can walk on water. Chuck Norris can swim through land," I pointed out.
"So true. Oh, Chuck Norris too. Maybe to free the Ice Princess-" but Chance cut her off.
"Like from Shark Boy and Lava Girl?" asked Mia.
"You actually watched that movie?" asked Micah in disbelief.
"John made us. Keep going," Chance urged on.
"-From some evil Titan," finished Micah.
"All our quests have something to do with evil Titans!" I said, hoping someone would come up with one not including make-up and bras or evil people.
The conch horn blew and we stood up. It meant that it was time for classes. Funnest part of the day. Me, Mia, John, and Taylor ironically had the same schedule and first was Attic Greek.
"Geia sas, táxi̱. Parakaló̱ vgálte ta vivlía sas keímeno" said Mr. Bruno as we walked in. I translated what he said mentally. Hello, class. Please take out your text books, he had said if you can't speak Greek. I took my old time desk and pulled out: Beginner Greek Writer. This was the most boring book ever but the language was fun to learn.
For the next forty-eight minutes we learned new verb-tenses and wrote a whole paragraph in Greek. Yeah, sounds boring, but when your brains hot-wired for this stuff, it comes fun and easy. Well, to me it does. Taylor hates it, Mia's if-y, and John and I love the heck out of it. We're what you call 'Greek Geeks'. See, it rhymes!
So, next came sword fighting. That's when this day got super interesting. In the most interesting class.
I had my sword by my side, waiting for my turn. Briana fiddled with Riptides thingy that clips the pen to your shirt. Yeah, she incapacitated the weapon of Perseus the Great, Slayer of Kronos. That's the title he got. I wish I had a title like that...But yet I didn't so much as cry for me. No seriously, I wanted that so bad, I'd cry for it.
It came to be my turn super fast. Seeing Briana un-cap that pen scared me to death. The writing on the side, the three foot bronze blade. The sword that fought Kronos and saved the world. The honor to face it sent chills of joy ride down the highway known as my spine. This was going to be amazing.
When the whistle blew, our swords clashed. I knew it was a fake fight, but we growled like what we did when we fought dummies as practice to face a really enemy. It was funny how serious we were being made me chuckle.
That fight didn't get too far considering the dark figure that just seemed to appear by Thalia's Pine.
Sorry it was so short but I didn't have enough fuel (Reviews) to make myself make it longer! So, if I get more reviews, It'll get longer, better, and I'll update faster! So while I update...
