Hi so I changed my name and after long last a new chapter. I am so sorry forgive me for not posting in ages. I try to post more often.
Percy's POV
I was in my cabin getting ready for my date tonight when I heard the door to the cabin open. "Please don't let it be Mark", I thought to myself repeatedly.
"Percy?" a females voice rang out though the cabin.
I smiled when I recognized the voice. "I am in here Katie," I yelled back to Katie. I heard footsteps and then I saw Katie's face popping out from the doorway.
"Hey Percy. What are you doing?" Katie asked.
"Not much just getting ready," I said, "You?"
"Not really. I came here to see if you want to hang out," Katie said.
"Hang out with me? You sure you don't want to hang out with Travis instead," I said teasing Katie.
Katie blushed, "N-no...He is busy planning some pranks on Mark with some other people that don't like him. I would join them but I don't feel like doing so."
"How many people are planning on pranking Mark?" I asked Katie wondering how many didn't like him.
"It is a lot. I think most of the minor gods kids and most of the veterans. I saw Annabeth there really going over the plans. She looked like she was out to kill," Katie laughed at the last part.
I soon joined in as well thinking about what Annabeth might do to Mark. "I sure Mark is going to be in a world of pain," I said while laughing. After laughing for a bit we both calmed down. I gestured to Katie to head to the bedroom and we sat down on one of the beds.
"Katie out of all the people to hang out with why me?" I asked because me and Katie were never really close in the past.
"Well, since Mark came a lot of people has started to make fun of you. So I thought I come over to see how you are doing," Katie said with a tone of nervousness, while she brushed a strand of her brown hair out of her face.
I was touched that she thought about me and came to check on me. "Thank you Katie. I appreciate that you came over for that," I said with gratitude.
"Of course Percy. We wouldn't want our number one hero to be depressed, other wise we might be in trouble with out our hero," Katie teased.
I blushed, guess it was payback from before about the comment with Travis. "Haha very funny. Why don't we go outside for a bit?" I asked.
Katie smiled, "Of course Percy. Why don't we head to the woods. That is where everyone is meeting for the prank war."
"Sure I love to see everyone," I said smiling. We head out of Poseidon's cabin, which reminds me to move to Aunt Hestia's cabin. We head towards the wood and the meeting. We arrived shortly and I saw many people from the different cabins, though it was the minority of them. The majority follow the king of arrogant losers, Mark. There was the Thanatos, Hecate, Morpheus, Nike, Nemesis, Iris, Ares, Hermes, Athena, Hephaestus, Apollo, Aphrodite, and Demeter. I also say the hunters of Artemis as well as Nico. I was surprised to see the hunters there but I love to see Thalia.
"Hey everyone!" I greeted them. They all looked up and gave me some sort of greeting, like a wave, a "Hi", A "How are you?", bear hugs (Thalia), shocks (Also Thalia) and fist bumps.
I sat down next to Annabeth with Katie next to me. "So what is happening?" I asked.
"Katie told about the prank war, right?" Annabeth said. I just nodded. "Then you should know that we are planning," Annabeth said once more. I nod again. "Then stop bugging seaweed brain. I am trying to hurt him," Annabeth said wave her hand trying to shoo me away like a fly.
"But where's the fun in me just leaving you alone?" I asked in a completely innocent voice.
Annabeth just groaned. "What do you want Percy? Can't you see I am trying to hurt Mark?" Annabeth said exasperatedly while gesturing at the plans.
"Of course I can see. I want to know if I get to do anything?" I said. Once more Annabeth groaned and gently shoved me into Katie.
"No seaweed brain. You can help plan but if we are caught then we don't want you dragged into this. You got enough problems as it is," Annabeth said.
Like always she was right. "Okay you win. I won't try to pull of any pranks on him," I said pouting. Annabeth got a smug look on her face and started to work on the plans with everybody a bit more. After a while we stopped and started to leave. I walked over to Thalia and Nico who were chatting.
"Thalia! Nico!" I shout to them.
"Percy!" both of them yell heading for me. They both gave me a bear hug, again.
"Percy, how are you doing? You not depress, right?" Thalia asked me.
I waved of their concerns, "No, no I not depress or anything like that. I am just annoyed that everyone started to make fun of me, taunt me, and call me bad names just after he came. After everything I done for them." I shake my head at the last part.
"Forget about those ingrates Percy. They don't deserve your help," Nico said to me.
"Yeah you're right. Thanks for the support guys," I tell them hugging them.
"Of course Percy," Thalia said to me hugging me.
"We would never leave family behind," Nico said to me.
After that we talk for a little bit until I told them about me being auntie Hestia's champion. So they helped me move my things into her cabin. No, she doesn't have any kids it is just to honor her like the Hera cabin.
As soon as we are done the conch horn sounded. We head out to the border and saw some hell hounds chasing a little girl.
I rushed out there as soon as I saw and shot to fire balls at some Hellhounds. I quickly killed of the Cyclops and used some water to smash a few Empousa. I saw Thalia shot some of the monster and Nico sending some skeletons to slay these monsters. I quickly nocked out another Hellhound and Empousa. Picked up the girl and created my mini-hurricane around me. I head back to the border slaying some of the monsters that were in the way.
We got to the border and I patched up the little girl. I noticed some old bruises and cuts. "That better not be what I think it is," I thought in disgust that some one would do that. I got a better look at her. the girl had dirty blonde hair and white skin, not pale like never been out in the sun, but not tanned either. She looked to be about 8 or 9.
As soon as I was done, I sat down to talk to the girl. "Hi there little one what is your name?" I asked trying to talk to her.
"M-my n-name is Chloe. W-what is your n-name?" the now name Chloe asked.
"I am Percy," I said holding out my hand. Chloe slowly reached out to shake my hand nervously.
"No need to be nervous I promise to I protect you," I said trying to get her to open up to me.
"You will?" Chloe said looking at me. In her eyes I saw pain, despair, as well as, longing, and hope.
"Of course," I pulled Chloe into a hug while saying that. Chloe tensed and the relax into me hug and eventually hugged back.
"T-thank you, Percy," I heard her whisper to me. I just smiled. I let go of her, but she still held on. So I just picked her up with the intent to take her to the infirmary.
As I just started to head there. Mark came up to us. "What do you need Mark?" I said with a bit of anxiousness and annoyance.
"Nothing much just came to take the girl to the infirmary," Mark said sneering, holding out his hand mark then says, "Come little one let me take care of you. I will take care of you much better then the outcast holding you."
Chloe just hanged on tighter. I put my arms around her to comfort her better. "I suggest you back away Mark. I don't want to cause trouble," I said warning Mark.
"To bad for you then. I just take her," with that Mark lunged at me.
On instinct I disappeared in flames. Both burning Mark and getting myself into Hestia's cabin with out trouble.
I heard Mark scream in pain all the way from the border. Gees, I thought it was a girl screaming for a second.
I place Chloe onto the bed wondering how I am going to heal Chloe's injures.
"Percy remember the hearth has the power to hurt and heal," Aunt Hestia said to me as well as telling some of my powers.
"Thank you Auntie," I thought back to Aunt Hestia. I then placed my hands over some of Chloe's wounds.
I notice the wounds start to fade away or patch it self up as I moved my hands over her wounds.
I quickly finish and was wondering if I should go out or just stay her. I face plant when I forgot about my date with Sadie. Now what the heck am I going to do. I thought for a moment while Chloe went off to the bathroom.
"I can't leave Chloe here and I can't bring her. But I don't want to cancel. Hmmm," I talked to myself. I then heard a knock on the door.
"Come in, the door is open!" I yelled to the person that knocked I then got up, having sat down on the bed, and walked towards the door. Katie walked in.
"Hey Katie," I said cheerfully, " You came to check up the new demigod?"
"Yeah. Heard she was with you and that you moved to Hestia's cabin. Where is she?" Katie asked looking around, probably expecting her to be on one of the beds.
"She went to the bathroom," I said pointing towards one of the bathrooms.
"She can walk?" Katie asked.
"Yup and she should be okay I healed her up." I said.
"I need to do the check up anyway. Got to but her on file for future reference," Katie said writing some stuff down.
The camp has it's own medical files and if any demigod has an appointment out side of the camp the files are copied and appear here.
Chloe then came out of the bathroom. "What is happening?" She asked confuse to why Katie was here.
I answered her, "Chloe, Katie here is going to do a checkup really quick okay."
Katie just nodded and gestured Chloe to get onto the bed. I left a note to Katie telling her an Chloe I had to go out. I then left and headed towards the movie theater.
Okay so once more I am so sorry. I had this chapter already written and then my computer died so I had to rewrite it. Which time didn't allow me to do until now. So if you pay attention you can guess I be using Katie a lot because she is an under used character, even in the books. Also I want to see what you guys think I should have Chloe be the daughter of. Not Athena or the big three. So read, review, and relax.
Phantom keeper out. Peace!
