I watched as my godly father ate a Wendy's Chicken Sandwich and told me that I can manifest functional wings if I ever wanted to. Eros looked at me like he didn't tell me I could just fly whenever I wanted to.
"So you telling me I can just fly now?" I said, still not being able to grasp the full idea of that.
"Yes child, but It does drain you. Much like when Nico Di Angelo shadow travels, so just be careful." Eros warned
"So you're telling me I can't even use two of my powers without passing out, but percy jackson can make a hurricane like it's nothing." I really was contemplating life at this point. Why could Percy blow up a mountain and not even be phased but; me and Nico get exhausted when doing the most basic of our powers.
"Yes, I am truly sorry Scarlet, anyway I must get back to Olympus now. I wish you the best of luck my child." Eros faded away into the winds. Where my dad sat was my sword that I left at the armory at camp.
I picked it up and left the restaurant. On my way to the back of the Wendy's I noticed a woman staring at me as I picked up my things and left. Once I got to the bus station I asked someone the time, they said it was four fifty. Had that much time passed when I was talking to Eros? There was only ten minutes until my bus got here. I went to sit on the bench while I waited. That was until I looked over and saw that the same girl that was staring at me earlier was now sitting right next to me. The woman looked over at me and I realized this woman closely resembled my mother.
"Mom?" My voice cracked when I spoke.
The lady giggled "No child, but I do have a message from her. Do you wish to hear it now?"
"My mother died five years ago, you can't have a message from her" This was by far the weirdest thing I have been told in the past month.
"That is true but lord Hades has allowed one message, I can give it to you now or you can call upon me to deliver the message later on.'' The lady smiled at me with hollow eyes and pale skin.
I thought about it for a moment. Hearing from mom would be really nice right now. But I decided to save it for later. Being a demi-god was dangerous and there was a very high chance I may not make it to Camp Jupiter. So just in case I wanted the last thing I heard to be the message from my mom.
"I will save it for later then" I looked forward and stopped myself from crying.
"Then it is decided, Call on me and the message will be delivered." The lady got up and walked away.
My bus finally arrived. I went all the way to the back to hopefully not draw attention to myself. I set all of my things on the seat next to me so no one would come back here. Even though I was extremely on edge I was able to take a nap. I had a very strange dream that Piper and Percy were fighting about where they should go look for me. They also were saying something to Percy and me but my dream shifted before the conversation was over. In the next part I saw a little boy that looked about nine or ten years old being chased by something I couldn't see.
The boy kinda looked like me but he had eyes that shifted from blue to a red-brown. Mine shifted from brown to more of a wine red. I watched as this boy was chased through the woods by something that let out guttural scream that would have easily blown out the ear drums of a mortal. I had a strange feeling that I had a connection to this boy. He managed to climb a tree before the monster could see. The beast kept running after the boy that was now in a tree. The boy took off his jacket and tied his legs to the branch that he was setting on. He ended up falling asleep, then I woke up.
