ATHELIA
He just fainted. Does he not like the sight of blood? Is he ok? I sighed, as I picked him up and dragged him over to the couch I was on. I layed him down. While waiting for him to get up, I took a look around his cabin. He had pictures of him and a girl with storm grey eyes, blonde curly hair, with an athletic body scattered over her wall. He had pictures of him having fun with a boy younger than him. The boy looked a lot like me. He had dark eyes, black hair, and looked mysterious. He reminded himself of me. I was about to look at the next set of pictures, until a voice behind me startled me.
"Nico does look a lot like you!"The boy said.
"Ahh! Oh. It's you."I said.
"Sorry for scaring you. By the way, why was on the couch?"
"Oh. You fainted on the spot."
He studied my face for a moment. "What's your name? I forgot to ask."
"My name is Athelia. But, call me Atlas. What's yours?"
"My name is Percy Jackson. But, would you mind telling me your full name?" Why would he want to know my full name?
"Athelia Pernico Di Angelo."
He paled for a moment, before asking me,"Do you have foster parents?"
"Yeah. But, I remember my parents, though. My biological parents. My foster parents may have d-d-die-died in a c-ca-car crash. I don't know," I half-heartedly said.
"Who are your parents?"Percy asked.
"Nico Di Angelo and Thalia Grace."
Percy was silent for a moment, before saying, "We need to leave soon. I'm going to pack my bags. Try to get your wounds to heal."
PERCY
No way. My best friend is a father. And my girlfriend's bestfriend is the mother. Am I an uncle? And, why was that girl bleeding ichor? That's only the god's blood. At least I found the girl! I can return to Camp Half-Blood. Woah. That name felt so distant.
I packed my bags as Athelia kept drinking the nectar she'd found. I couldn't figure out why it wasn't burning her up, though. Maybe she was a god in disguise?
"Let's go," I called after her. She got up and we both walked out of the cabin.
"We have to burn the cabin. I don't want to leave a trace behind. Any idea how to do that?" I asked.
She smiled, and said, "I'll set it on fire, and you put a water barrier over the cabin, so that the smoke won't go up," Athelia said. Before I could answer, she turned around and shot fire out of her hands, setting the cabin on fire. I quickly made the water barrier, and sure enough, the smoke stayed contained. When the cabin finished burning we set off.
"You know, do you just want to teleport there?" Athelia asked.
"Can you do that?" I asked. She nodded.
"Come here."
She "hugged" me, and what Nico called "shadow traveled" us there. We were maybe an hour away from camp.
"Oh Styx!"She said. Thunder rumbled. "Sorry, I couldn't get close enough."
"It's ok, I know my way from here," I said.
"Here, I think I have a faster way,"She said.
"Are you going to shadow travel us there?"I asked.
"Are you kidding? No way. I could use a nap right now. That drains my energy. Come."She said. She reminded me of Nico, who says, "With great power comes a great nap".
Athelia walked out of the woods, and I followed her. She stopped nearby a road. She stood for a moment, concentrating, and then, a car appeared.
She flashed a grin, and said, "The fates owed me a favor."
"Who's driving?" I asked.
"We can take turns. Do you know how to drive?"She asked me.
"I can try?" I said. I never ever drove a car before.
"Good enough."
Athelia climbed into the driver's seat and I got shotgun. She drove almost the entire way to camp. I drove the last 15 minutes. We almost got pulled over by police, but thanks to Athelia's crazy driving, we managed to outrun them.
I pulled over to the side of the road and parked the car. I had to go wake Athelia, because she had fallen and almost kicked me when I was trying to wake up.
"How are we going to get in there? And isn't that a farm?"Athelia asked.
I flashed a grin. "Nah. It's a camp. You'll see."
"Okayyyyyyy."
We grabbed my bags and walked toward the camp. It was silent, and it was night. We walked into the borders and walked to the Poseidon cabin. Everything was as I left it, but it was neater. Tyson must have been here, I thought, chuckling to myself. We dropped my bags there. No one else was there. We started walking out the door, until I heard the loudest snore ever, and instantly, I knew Tyson was there.
We walked out the door, and walked toward the Big House.
"-not dead," A voice said.
"How can you be so sure?"Another voice said.
"I would have found him down there if he was," The other voice said.
"Can we send more search teams?" A girl's voice said, which I immediately recognized as Annabeth.
"No, we already have, and-" Snap. I turned over and saw Athelia had stepped on a twig. Sorry, she mouthed to me. We gotta run, I mouthed back. She nodded.
"Someone's spying on us," A voice I recognized also, as Chiron's. Athelia and I dashed into the bushes, as they stepped out.
"Hmm. Clear," Chiron said.
"I swear I heard someone there, " Nico said.
"Check the bushes!" Annabeth said. Oh no. I looked over at Athelia. She nodded at me.
"EMPOUSA" I shrieked in my best girlie voice I could, and Athalia and I sprinted toward the beach.
Athalia
They chased us and Nico finally shadow traveled in front of us. Percy and I had hoods on, so they couldn't see our faces.
"What did you hear? And, take of your hoods,"Nico ordered. Percy started to take off his hood, but I stopped him.
"We take orders from no one," I sneered.
"Oh yeah? I can disintegrate you to ashes,"Nico bounced back.
"Nico," Annabeth warned.
"I'm not scared of you! You can't hurt me," I said.
"Aphrodite will be sorry she lost a child,"Nico retorted.
"I'm no child of Aphrodite! How dare you!" I screeched.
"Calm down you two,"Percy said.
I shot him a glare.
"Take off your hoods,"Chiron said calmly. Percy took his off, but I didn't. Everyone swarmed him and he was swept to the Big House, leaving me out there, alone.
