Chapter 2, an explanation

The only thing that snapped me out of my weeping was when I heard a loud roar and felt a scratch to my shoulder.I leaped and looked back at the thing that scratched me a large black haired hound the size of an rhino looked at me with its large malicious jaws and jagged claws. "Leave me alone I screamed as a bolt of electricity hit that hound from hell and it disappeared into dust. Normally I would be mesmerized to see a giant rhino dog but considering my experiences today I wouldn't be surprised by anything. I then remembered the large cut on my arm and looked at it.

I was surprised to see that the wound was closing up. Black electricity seemed to be jolting from the wound as it closed up. Again I normally would be surprised but considering everything it wasn't surprising. "Well the abomination has rising", a raspy voice said. I turned around there stood a woman with grey reptilian like skin and bright flaming hair but her oddest feature was a pair of long bat like wings.

"though I never expected you to awaken at such a young age".

"Who are you"? I said sternly not hiding the anger in my voice. "My you are a scary one aren't you", she said mockingly.

"Tell me what you are and I while consider letting you live", I said as electricity jumped from my hands.

She stepped back and her face seemed to turn from that of mockery to fear.

"I am an empousa", she said with a shaky tone.

"Like…. from Greek mythology".

"Yes".

"Please what's next the gods of Greek mythology are real", I said mockingly.

"That would be the next step".

I stared at her memorized. I know I said nothing could surprise me anymore but this just completely destroyed my world view. I used to think there wasn't a god but know there are over one hundred. I also used to think when we died we just died and that's it game over. But know there are three different places I could be going and right now I know I will going to the one with a lot more fire.

"Are there more people as powerful as me"?

"She smiled "there are more demigods but there has never been one that is as powerful as you".

"What? I don't understand, why"!.

"Simple"she retorted. "You Perseus Jackson are a plague, a monster in demigod flesh, the one who has killed hundreds of thousands in a single second",She said, the mocking returning to her voice.

"You Percy Jackson Son of Zeus are an abomination".

The info of what happened before I awoke began to burn inside my mind. All I could remember was falling down in searing pain and before I fell out of conscious I remember seeing a blast of black and red and that's it. I didn't remember why I was there who I was with and how come I became what I am."What!" I screamed. "I'm not an abomination or a son of Zeus I'm"! I stopped I didn't know what I was to be honest. Was I this so called abomination that she claims I am.

I don't know to be honest and don't care because even if I'm not this abomination I know one thing. I'm a Monster whether I am this abomination or not.

"I would love to stay but i feel like the more I stay here the closer I am to getting killed so bye" she said as she disappeared into the shadows."Wait come back" I screamed but she had already disappeared into the shadows.

I sat down near a shard of broken glass that was likely from our house.

I looked at it and saw that my once curly blonde hair had become straight and black and fell down almost to my shoulders and my electric blue eyes had turned a crimson red.

"Gotta match huh",I muttered with a little laughter escaping my throat as I summoned my black and red electricity. It was the only time I had laughed since the explosion but it felt pitiful and weak. I got up and went over to my mom. " I know you probably can't hear me mom" I said trying not to burst into tears," but if you can know this.

I'm going to make things right... somehow". I bent down and kissed her forehead and then I slid my hand over her eyes and she closed her eyes for the last time. I knew my promise was likely going to be just words but I didn't care. This was the least I could do for her. I began walking back out of the borders of Seattle. I noticed another body. This time I went and examined it fully.

The skin lacked any color and was pale white and it seemed if i cut it with a knife no blood would come out. I grabbed a bit of its black hair and yanked on it. A chunk of its hair came out immediately after pulling on it. I began to realize what had happened. When I caused that explosion these people weren't caught in it; they were drained by it.

They acted as a food source. I jumped back; the thought that I had used these people to activate my powers disgusted me. But in my heart I knew it was true. I got up and began to walk; I then finally reached the borders of Seattle.

You know that saying don't look back well I looked back at all the death and destruction I caused and I felt a wave of emotion come through me. but I didn't cry. As I looked back I felt a change happen inside of me like my heart had burnt to a crisp but rose anew from the ashes. I stopped looking at Seattle my home and began to walk.

Authors notes: Whew 1000 words so anyway the prologue is officially finished and Percy is going to be out on his own someone should tell the monsters to watch out.
