"Crowley think of something! " Several people shouted at the demon in question. Why? We'll get there but we have to go back several years. When he and his favourite angel were just minding their own business and ended up going to the States New York to be exact.
Aziraphale's P.O.V.:
Lovely, Crowley and I just averted one apocalypse only for another one to start. This one will be of Greek origin. So here we were in the throne room for the gods and goddesses. They were all there major and minor gods in the throne room the thrones were cleared away. So was the trainer of heroes Chiron. I didn't understand why Crowley and I were summoned here though. "They are here good. Welcome Aziraphale and Crowley. We have much to discuss and time grows short." a woman with storm-gray eyes stated.
They filled us in on what was going on and then sent us to camp half-blood. We needed to be there for when a child of one of the big three arrived. During the camp's capture the flag games Crowley and I would go to the beach and just be us. Our stories were we got too many blessings, bathed in the river Styx and were granted immorality so we couldn't play. Since the game was always after dinner we would often watch the stars. It was on one of these nights that we heard a monster getting a little too to close the camp.
"We should go look angel. Come on I think I hear some kids screaming." Crowley told me before he slithered toward the hill with me on his tail. He was right there were kids screaming. One of them was quite young.
"Grover you and the blonde guy get Luke and Annie to camp I'll buy you time!"Shouted a dark-haired girl. The others tried to protest but I noticed that Crowley already blinded the monster which just made it angry. He is an idiot sometimes. Because the dark-haired girl went flying.
"Your friend is right kids my friend has this handled so let's go." I told them lifting the little blonde girl. Crowley was now human again fighting the monster. His movements were very snake-like. I went to help after I dropped the two kids at the big house but I was too late. Crowley was passed out and the other girl was hardly breathing.
Then as if by magic a pine tree grew out of the girl I didn't do that. Crowley and I often did make the camp border more powerful so I think he was doing that again but he was just as clueless as I was when he got up. "What do you mean she just turned into a tree?" he asked me and I pointed to the tree that wasn't there last night.
"I didn't do that I swear." he added. I got him to his bed in the Demeter cabin to rest telling him that I would get him some medical supplies. I forgot to mention that the gods said we could sleep in whatever cabin we wanted even Artemis said we could use hers if we were presenting as females but Crowley went with Demeter and I went with Athena. Hera even offered to marry us if we lived through this.
Five years later Crowley and I got separated for an undercover mission. But only during class time, I was posing as an English teacher. And Crowley used his powers to be a student. A satyr named Grover was worried about a student named Percy Jackson named after the Greek hero Perseus both Grover and Crowley said that they had some disability to get out of one thing or another. One trip the kids went on before things went bad for Percy was to the botanical gardens near the school.
One of the kids picked on Percy, Grover and Crowley. Knowing what was going to happen to the girl I turned my back on Crowley as Percy was led to look a different plants by Grover. Then there was a scream. Crowley in his snake form slithered out of one of the taller plants the girl was next to scaring her. I didn't approve of it but it stopped the bullying for a little while. Crowley didn't sleep he spent his nights studying and stargazing.
When the incident at the museum happened. We panicked when we couldn't find Percy. So once again Crowley snuck off as a snake to investigate when he came back in a hurry screaming for Grover and Chiron. He was hissing something about a fury. "And you left him alone?" I asked him as the other two went in to help Percy.
Crowley didn't seem worried about Percy getting expelled. Chiron was very persistent that Percy paid attention to his lectures and I tried my best to help him. I did feel bad when we had to deny that one of the chaperones existed. But Crowley was always a better lair than Grover and I were so Percy easily picked up that we were lying to him. Since Chiron asked to see Grover, Crowley and myself while Percy was studying. We didn't bother hiding the supernatural things about ourselves since it was just the four of us. Crowley had his black wings out and sunglasses off. It unnerved Grover a bit. We started talking about moving Percy to camp when we heard someone coming.
On the last day of school after the kids packed up I said my goodbyes to Crowley he and Grover were going to see that Percy made it back to his mom's alright.
Percy's P.O.V.:
Since the Museum Grover has been acting weird. While Crowley whose first name is Anthony and his middle name starts with a J but he just uses his last name, was acting like this was just an ordinary day for him. So the first chance I got I ditched them. I didn't expect Crowley to find me so quickly. He was helping my mom with her groceries.
"No problem Ms.Jackson really. Sorry, I don't take off my sunglasses I have a light sensitivity. Oh hello Percy fancy that you and I live in the same building. My boyfriend left some stuff at my place and he asked if I could get it before I head out for the summer. Hope you have a lovely visit with your mom." He explained as my mom got the door for him and after he noticed me. That's when Gabe my stepdad had to open his big mouth.
"Hey kid got any poker money and what's with the sunglasses? We're inside." He addressed Crowley who stuck out his tongue as if to taste the air. If I didn't know better I would say Crowley had a Lizard tongue but that couldn't be possible.
"No but have you heard of a shower? You smell so bad that the air has a taste. Also, I should be going I have someone waiting for me." Crowley replied before heading out. I then heard a door a few down from ours open. Followed by the sound of things crashing. My mom and I were supposed to have a beach weekend and I look forward to it. In the parking lot of the apartment building was a Bentley an old one. I had no clue who owned it.
At the beach, it seemed that my friends couldn't leave me alone first Crowley at home and now Grover at the beach in the middle of a storm. And wait where were his pants? He looked normal from the waist up but from the waist down there was an animal body donkey I think. "So either I'm on a sugar high or you're part donkey." I told Grover who let out an offended bleating sound.
"Part goat. Anyway, Sally we gotta go Crowley is distracting something on its way here. We gotta get Percy to camp now." Grover insisted. But I realized Crowley was a twig of a guy. He looked like the slightest breeze could knock him over what could he do? I was going to voice my concerns but my mom got me and Grover into the car. "Also before you start thinking that Crowley is part lizard he isn't." Grover added once we were on the road.
"No, but he is still very skinny. He also has a boyfriend isn't he twelve? " I asked just before the car flipped over. We were stuck in the mud and as if by magic the driver's side windows broke. Grover was passed out but I could hear what sounded like Crowley shouting something about how cars not being well-made anymore.
"We're almost there just over the hill. The tree is the property line." My mom told me. When I did catch a glimpse of Crowley his normally neat clothes were all covered in mud, his sunglasses were broken now I'm sure I was dreaming this. Since his eyes looked like cats all yellow with slit pupils. That's when he got tossed into a tree.
"Is he going to be okay?" I tried to ask Grover who wasn't helpful. I did see a black snake in a tree taunting whatever was after me but it wasn't working. With the next flash of lighting, I saw what was chasing us. It had the head and legs of a bull but the body of a professional linebacker. So my mom thought now would be a good idea to give me bullfighting lessons. I set Grover on a tree. My mom got caught by the monster's big meaty hand and the snake tried to help her with no luck.
My mom vanished in front of my eyes and something in me snapped. I found one of the monster's horns stuck in a tree and I pulled it out before using it to kill it. "Crowley! Anthony, are you okay?!" I yelled over the wind. I was relieved to see Crowley come running up the hill. His head was hurt but other than that he was fine. I grabbed Grover and the three of us went over the hill. I passed out shortly after.
I don't know how long I was asleep for, but there was a blonde girl around my age to my right and the black snake from the monster attack on my left. The snake almost seemed happy to see me awake and alerted the blonde with its tale. Just how long was that snake? "Thanks, Tony. Why don't you go find Aziraphale I'm sure he's worried about you." The blonde told the snake who uncoiled itself and slithered away. She then handed me a glass of something that tasted like my mom's chocolate chip cookies. "You drool in your sleep." She told me.
She then left me to meet up with my English teacher Mr. Fell, a now awake Grover, a guy who looked like doctor who couldn't remember which one, my Latin teacher Mr. Bunner and another guy named Mr. D.
"Why is the doctor ginger?" I asked and Grover laughed so did the blonde girl. That's when the ginger hissed.
"Stupid David Tennant, this has been my face for centuries and now I can't go out without people thinking I'm a time traveller." The man hissed out and Mr. Fell tried to comfort him.
"Crowley I'm sure he didn't mean it." Mr. Brunner said. My jaw dropped that the ginger was Crowley I thought he was twelve. But it was Crowley he wasn't wearing his sunglasses so I could see his yellow cat-like eyes. He had a snake tattoo that seemed to move on his face I'm sure he didn't have that at school. I was going to open my mouth again when he stuck out his tongue which I still thought was lizard-like. And yeah I think I'm still dreaming. Because Mr. Fell had white wings coming out of his back and Mr. Brunner had the bottom half of a horse.
"Perssy come on focuss. Chiron wass going to sshow you around. Sssee you at dinner." Crowley hissed and walked off.
"Is he a cat? " I asked and Mr. Fell looked at me like I was actively trying to offend Crowley before he two walked off. Grover also left shortly after. That's when Chiron decided to show me around.
Unfortunately, once I was left alone some of the older campers came after me. Even better they were all girls the one leading them was named Clarisse. Mr. Fell tried to stop it from happening I noticed him getting archery lessons from the Apollo kids. Chiron told me that all the kids at this camp were like me. A child of a Greek god or goddess. But he didn't mention why Mr. Fell and Crowley are grown-ups who just hang out here or what they were. Since Crowley was definitely not human in the slightest and if Mr. Fell is talking to him like they go back a long time I think he isn't either.
Sorry got distracted A.D.H.D. and all that so I think it's a good idea to leave it here for now.
