Chapter Seven;I'm a kid of who now?!( Also Grace gets hit by a brick (conveniently Me)…Again?)
"AY!" Leo's voice was the first I heard as my messy haired imp of a friend ran up to us, grinning appraisingly at Tsuni-who I was still Sitting on, mainly because I was too lazy to get down, but also because I didn't want to bring any more attention to myself by getting off the massive white deer with avian hindquarters- "Nice pet."
"He's not a pet!" I protested," Hes…uh…a story don't ask."
To my surprise,Leo nodded along with my request," Will do Sea witch."
"Hey, New Girl!" again the blonde guy I kept running into, but not really running into, called out as he ran-more like flat out sprinted- over. He smiled,causing the pale raised skin of an odd scar on his lip to stand out.
"Thanks for taking care of my idiotic,grease monkey of a best friend."
Leo scoffed, putting his hand against his chest in overdramatic mock hurt,"I am not an idiot man. Grease monkey, yeah can't avoid that one."
I huffed lightly,sending a wry,amused glance at Percy and Nico ,"Did someone change my name to New Girl while I wasn't looking?"
"Oh…Heh.." Blondie chuckled nervously, actually looking as if he felt bad about not knowing my name the first time he saw my face.
"Hey, I'm joking supergirl."I smiled at the awkward blonde.
Percy snorted, Jack failing completely to hide his laughter from the terrible nickname.
"Jace, this is Naomi Harmon -who I really hope is my little sister-"Percy explained excitedly, almost like a puppy," Nao,that's your nickname now, this is Jason Grace, son of Jupiter and the camp's resident big softie!"
I blinked twice, nodding before realizing that Jason's eyes had widened and Percy was bouncing up and down like a child, a blue light-Like seeing sunlight when you're underwater- falling on my face and shoulders.
"wha-" My whisper of confusion was cut off by Jack cackling as he held his hand out,"Leo, cough it up Iron man!"
"Hah!" Percy followed suit with everyone else talking over me and my attempts to ask what was happening(Although I already knew to an extent, whoever my parent was had….Claimed me was the wording Nico used) "I was right! Suck it Nico!"
I let out a groan as I finally had the though to look above my head and what I saw shocked me. Floating over my head was a large, glowing trident hovering over me. I recognized the symbol of power immediately, which paired with the blue light and sudden scent of a sea breeze, I recognized who exactly my Godly parent was. Without thinking,I slipped off of Tsuni's back, still staring in awe at the symbol and its calming light. "I'm…..I'm a child of…. The Poseidon?" I whispered,Poseidon didn't sound right though for some reason, I wobbled slightly, a sure sign my knee was moments away from noping out of supporting my body.. Jason was the only one to notice-aside from Tsuni, but there wasn't much he could do without knocking me over in the process-. The blonde's arm wrapped around my shoulder,"Woah there… easy…..Easy…. I know it's a lot to take in all at once…" I actually consciously felt myself beginning to become dead weight and opened my mouth to warn the kind guy holding me up,however my leg gave out before I could warn him. Jason,to his credit, reacted quickly for a guy his size, his arms wraped completely around me and pulled me against his chest as we fell backwards,his back taking the worst of the fall onto some rocks. Our fall silenced the chatter as I managed to roll off of him and shake his shoulder, the poor guy clearly confused.
"Hey…Jason…Supergirl, You okay..?" I questioned,staring at the blonde in I got in response was a grumbled,"Bricks hate me." I cocked my head to the side in confusion before shaking his shoulder again,"Jason?"
He shook his head,snapping back into reality,"What? OH yeah I'm fine Naomi, are you okay?"
"I'm good thanks to you."I smiled as I managed to stand back up, Tsuni pressing himself close to me to support me as I held my hand out to the boy on the ground.
"Thanks."He grinned as he took my hand and stood back up.
"well…"Percy began,starting to smile again,"welcome to the family Naomi!"
"Uh….Thanks Percy." I nodded,before realizing Poseidon's Roman Counterpart likely existed,"Neptune!" I beamed suddenly, feeling more… myself then I had moments before, strength returning slightly to my knee, as If something-or some one- was patting me on the back for figuring it out.
"Neptune?" Percy questioned in confusion.
"My godly parent!" I exclaimed excitedly,"It isn't Poseidon like yours, but Neptune, His Roman equivalent slash form!" I grinned.
However,Leo let out a laugh,"Hah ! Gimme back my money Jack I was Right! She is a Roman!"
I stared harshly at my friends as money was passed between them,"Did you two have a bet going?"
"Maybe." They both chimed,grinning like the devils they were.
