You Really Need To Work On Your Pep Talks

Hey guys!!!! Long time no see!!!!! Sorry this took long to post today but I'm back but I'm busier than normal 😭 I'm sorry this is a short chapter but I'll be honest I'm tired and I didn't have the time to make a long one. Hopefully after this week things will dile down and I'll be able to right more without being stressed at getting back home from school at 7 and still having to do home work and write. I'm sorry again for being away for so long I love you guys for ur patience!!!!! Here's the new chapter! Hope u enjoy!!!!!!!

It did not take long for me to pack I packed the minimal in a backpack Grover had found for me. The camp store handed me 100 dollars in mortal money and twenty golden drachmas this size of Girl Scout cookies. Different Greek designs where imprinted on them and they were made of pure gold since the gods don't use anything less than that.

They explained it was a good way to communicate with out signaling monsters that we are a buffet. Chiron also handed us some ambrosia and nectar for when we got injured. Apparently it could heal almost any injury for a demigod only but if we ate too much of it. Well let's just say it'll look similar to the scene in Harry Potter where the Phoenix suddenly combust into flames and turns to ash. Except we don't get to be reborn we just die.

"That's one way to go a i guess eat a magical square and die" I mumble. I looked over at Jason who was talking with Annabeth who wasn't taking him going with me on a quest too well. "Why do you have to go? if he made you tell him you don't want to"she said raising her voice. Jason just shook his head "he didn't ask me I volunteered and I wanted to go I can't just leave him" he says pleading her to understand. She didn't.

"So your picking him over me!" she yelled tears in her eyes I swallowed. I didn't like her but I understood where she was coming from this was a dangerous quest. I walked up to them but before she could say anything she started to yell at me. "Why are you trying to take him away from me?! I don't want to be alone! You want him to die don't you" Those words struck me "alone" that was something I never wanted to be yet I always managed to end up alone. Would I bring Jason to his death?

"Annabeth stop!" Jason yelled I turned over to him he looked pained but I didn't know why. I then realized that I had tears beginning to form I quickly blinked them away but Jason didn't break eye contact with me. Instead he ruffled my hair and laid his hand on my shoulder turning to Annabeth. "Apologize Percy is now just as important to me as you are I care for him Annabeth and I'm sorry but your going to have to deal with it".

"Yes princess besides this isn't your choice to make" Clare said coming behind me. I smiled at her and I looked at Annabeth "look Jason obviously cares for you and I get it you don't want to see him get hurt but you have to let make his own decisions" I say. She looked reluctant but nodded she hugged Jason knocking him a bit over, actually he fell bringing me down with him.

Annabeth managed to let go in time but I fell straight on top of Jason . I was only a couple inches away from his face and I could feel my face turning pink along with Jason's. "Wow there Grace I didn't think you to be the aggressive type" Clare said laughing. Annabeth however was turning a red with anger I quickly tried getting off falling backwards as a result. This causing Annabeth to smirk and Clare to howl in laughter.

I sighed Jason was chuckling and I huffed in annoyance. We both got up "here!" Annabeth said and ran back to the camp in Jason hands was a Yankees cap something Jason obviously knew what it was. He seemed surprised but managed a weak smile Clare then threw something at me hitting me in the face. I glared at her she smirked "not my fault you weren't looking prissy".

I rolled my eyes and noticed the pair of shoes I had in the hands. I looked up at her tilting my head a bit "Noah wanted me to give this to you he couldn't get out on teaching some lessons so he asked me to bring these to you". I looked at them closer and saw they were winged "winged shoes?" She nodded. I looked at Jason was he frowning? "these were a gift for Percy? wasn't it a gift from his dad?" Jason said frowning more as he said it.

I smiled at Clare "tell him thanks and you Clare take care don't go picking a fight with your siblings now while I'm gone". She snorted "don't ask for miracles your not going to get them" i rolled my eyes she gives me a quick hug. I look over and see Chiron with Grover and I walk up to them. Next to them is a man with eyes covering his entire body the same one I saw in the hospital wing.

"Ah! Percy this is Argus he's the head of security and he will er keep an eye on things" Chiron said. I snorted at the bad pun Chiron made "he was made by Hera right I don't remember his exact story however" Chiron smiled and nodded. A thought stuck me and I looked down at the flying shoes "I won't be able to wear these will I?" I ask. Chiron shook his head "no child you won't".

I sighed and handed them to Grover "here man for you" I say handing them over to him. Grover eyes went hide "seriously! Thanks!" I laughed but looked at Chiron "how do they" "work?" Chiron said. He chuckled "just yell Maia and they should activate". Grover gave it a try and he started flying all over the place like crazy. I started to laugh again seeing him but I sighed as I realized I didn't have anything really to help me.

I swear Chiron can pass by as a psychic sometimes "That's right I almost forgot!" He said and he took something out. It was a cheap ball point pen that could be bought any where "for you" he said. I inspected it closer knowing Chiron wouldn't just give me a pen for no reason knowing I could possibly die. Wow I'm being really pessimistic right now good job brain. I notice it's the same pen he threw at me when I faced Mrs. Dodds.

I uncapped it and sure enough it grew into that same celestial bronze sword. It felt completely balanced and it's leather grip fitted perfectly with my hold . It felt as though the sword was made for me. I saw the Greek lettering "Anaklusmos" I say I looked up "riptide" I translated in Greek I was getting better at understanding it. Thank you Chiron" I say smiling widely. "Yes that sword has been kept for a while not to mention the tragic history behind it but that's  another matter".

I put the cap back on putting it nervously away. I tend to loose everything especially pens and something tells me I wouldn't want to loos this one. Again as if reading my mind Chiron says "you can't loose it" "what?" "You can't loose the pen it's been enchanted to come back". "Throw it" i nod and throw it as far as I could. We waited for a bit and there it was in my pocket again. "Now that was cool" I said.

"Yes now only use it for emergencies this blade is made of celestial bronze as you know it won't harm mortals simply because they are not important enough for the sword to kill". "I wonder how they feel about that" I said Chiron chuckled "some might not take it well" I laugh. "So I'm hoping this thing from the Iliad the mist will help with me people not seeing me pulling out a sword?".

Chiron nodded proudly "I see you've read the Iliad and yes it will mortals will interpret what ever their mind can handle anything but the truth". I nod and I ask him a question I've been dying to ask "Chiron the gods can't die now right? I mean as long as the western civilization is alive they're alive? So even if I fail I can't mess things up to the point everyone's dead including the world and the gods?".

Chiron gave me a melancholy smile "nobody knows how long the West will last percy and yes the gods are immortal but they can diminish into nearly nothing" Chiron states not helping in the slightest. "All we can do child is follow our destiny" I sigh. "Relax and breath and remember you may be about to prevent the biggest war in history". I look at him "You really need to work on your pep talks they're not so peppy" I say and Chiron chuckles.
