AN: This Story Is Far From Finished, I'm Only Posting To Know Whether The Story's Good Or Not, All Comments And PM's Welcome, BTW: I'll Change The Story's Format Into One More Comfortable To Read And Split It Into The Chapters You're Accustomed To After I Know If I Should Keep Writing Or Modify It
Moon-Moon, The Storm Spirit
Chiron and Mr. D took me over to the big house where we started discussing the events that had just taken place in the bonfire. I told them about my dreams and how Hades had given me my blade, how he told me to look for his key and how he said my quest would come soon. Chiron looked like he'd 50 years in 2 minutes. "What's wrong?" I asked, not exactly sure I wanted to know the answer. "Hades' key," he said at last, "It used to be placed on his sword. That key controls who lives or dies."
"And this kid, di Angelo, the campers were acting as if it was no surprise for him to be responsible. What do you think he'll do with it?"
"I would say bring his sister back but she was already reborn into a new life."
"Then what?"
"Perhaps he's working for somebody."
"It can't be his father, but who else would a son of Hades work for?"
"I honestly don't know."
"Then maybe he wants somebody dead?"
"He can kill someone if he wanted them dead."
"Maybe we can find him, and ask him who he's working for." Said Cathy as she was waking through the door. "Cathy what're you––"
"Going on the quest of course."
"So am I." said Angel walking through the door. Honestly, I really and honestly wish that I would have said something better back then instead of "uh...okay?" Chiron said that tomorrow was the 13th and that we would leave at the morning, after breakfast and that Argus would drive us as far as he could unless we could find some other way of travel. As soon as we left the big house, Cathy and I made sure Angel had left and the two of us went back to my cabin. We got there and closed the door behind us, we were well aware of Jason sleeping in his bed at the very end of the cabin but we didn't care, if anything, we could explain to him what was going on. We went over to my bed, Cathy sat down in my bed while I searched through my personal belongings chest. I pulled out the backpack that I bought at the camp store. Cathy concentrated and grasped the backpack as if her life depended on it. The backpack glowed a faint blue for a couple of seconds, then it faded. When I looked up, I saw that her nose was bleeding. "Oh my god, are you okay?" I asked her, worrying that she might have hurt herself at my expense. "I'm fine." She said waving her hand dismissively and gesturing towards the backpack. "Did it work?"
"Of course it worked. I'm me." I smiled as I picked up the backpack, and put my arm around Cathy, helping her walk as she had exhausted herself putting that spell on my backpack. "Don't get to used to this McGrath." She said as I put my arm around Cathy's waist and then she laughed at my dumbfounded face when I realized she had just made an InFamous reference. We left the room, Cathy slowly getting her strength back, and made our way towards the forest. When we got to the woods, I summoned my sword and removed my arm from Cathy's waist (which kinda upset me). "You ready?" Cathy asked, slightly worried. "I don't know," I said "We never got to do this, What if it doesn't work?"
"You can do this." She said with her wonderful smile. Quickly I stabbed my Stygian black sword on the ground and immediately I crated a long and deep crack on the ground that reached into the Underworld itself. I concentrated, "I've done worse!" I yelled at myself in my head. "You can do this!" Next, came the blissful sound of thunder, and the shape of three smoky horses, Anemoi Thuellai (storm spirits), came into view as I pulled my sword from the ground, closing the rupture. They tried to make a run for it but it was already too late. I jumped on top of the biggest horse and kept it from disappearing or running away while Cathy opened the backpack that we enchanted earlier and sucked up the remaining storm spirits. The horse tried to kick me off but I held my ground, not letting it escape. I pushed all my thoughts, feelings, worries, and fears into the horse's mind. I showed the horse how I felt about my mother lying to me about my dad, about how I felt towards Cathy, about how scared I was of possibly leading my friends to their deaths, about how guilty I felt about my family being kidnapped, and how scared I was of fighting a guy with power over life and death. In turn, I saw the life of my storm spirit, how he had been killed over and over by different demigods, how Boreas had tortured him, along with many other storm spirits, how he'd been captured over and over by demigods as a gift for some wind god who just ended up either killing or torturing him. I focused all my energy into this horse, this was my horse, he was my friend, there was a connection with this horse that I was sure I wasn't going to have with the other two storm spirits, the connection was so big, it went down to a telepathic level. I could hear this horses thoughts in my head. "Moon-Moon." I said out loud. "I'm gonna call you Moon-Moon." Cathy looked slightly confused but didn't ask, she reached over to open up the backpack but then Moon-Moon disappeared in a cloud of smoke. "Well that's great." Cathy said sounding thoroughly annoyed, "It didn't work." "Yes it did," I said. "I just formed an empathy link with Moon-Moon." Cathy's eyes widened and she looked like she was gonna say something but I cut her off. "Don't worry." I said, "He can't die, it's safe." Cathy still didn't look convinced, but she opened the bag and we carried on with the next two storm spirits, promising them their freedom, in exchange for help on this quest. After we had the storm spirits under control, Cathy stuffed them into my backpack once more. I put on my backpack and put my arm around Cathy's waist as we were walking back to our cabins. "It's okay you know. I can walk now." She said and I responded by saying "I know." She looked at me with puzzled eyes and in my mind I was just thinking I blew it when she said "Did I ever show you that spell where I magically detach a part of a person's body?"
"Um...no?"
"Then don't try anything or I will." She said playfully with a slightly dangerous tone as she got a bit closer to me, and grabbed my hand that was now around her shoulders. I lead her back to her cabin and kissed her cheek before letting go, I stared at her, fearing for my balls, but then she got real close, hugged me tight and I could feel her larger than average breasts pressing against my chest. "That's all you get for tonight." She said, whispering in my ear, and pulling away from her hug. "Goodnight." I said. "Goodnight."
