Split Life Of War DISCONTINUED

15 The Story of His Life

Chapter 15

(*Recap* Cathy found Jacob IMing Luke, and Jacob did not want to tell Luke about their kiss. Cathy told him, and Luke again attempted to get her on his side. We saw the side of Jacob that Luke has never seen, and probably will never see. Jacob is about to tell Cathy his story.)

"My family lived in a small town in Wisconsin, and I got attacked by a hydra. My mum was a wizard, and she didn't even believe me. So I left them. I wandered around with no clear intention of where I was going to go. I had always wanted to see the world trade center towers (A/N this is before 9/11 remember). I ended up at the Empire State Building. The man that was in charge of the elevator spotted me and asked me if I was lost. I told him exactly what I just told you, and he gave me a card, and told me to put it in a place in the elevator, and press the button for the 600th floor. So I did. I ended up in Olympus, and wandered around for a bit before Poseidon himself found me. He found a satyr to bring me to camp half-blood. When I got there, they taught me about all of their history. I was particularly interested in Kronos, and Achilles. Two years later, he spoke in my dreams, Kronos. He instructed me to go to the Underworld. I did even though at the time quests were no longer aloud. I... I have the curse of Achilles. And no one knows where my weak spot is." I stared at him, my mouth agape.

"So you are invincible?"

"Except for the one spot."

"What happened after that?"

"Chiron banned me from camp, and I headed off to begin the rise of Kronos. I worked my way through the world. Soon all kinds of monsters were with me. Then Luke came. He started to spread rumors about me, and he threatened me. If I stepped down for him, he would leave me alone, if I refused, he would reveal the fact that wizards existed, and I still don't know how he knows about them. So I stepped down."

"You gave up extreme power to protect wizards?"

"I couldn't let thousands of innocents die."

"You do realize that that is what you are doing by killing demigods with monsters as they try to get to Camp?"

"I never stopped to think about it, until a week ago after the snowball fight when you guys were fooling around, and were so united. That kind of unity doesn't exist with Kronos."

"Oh... Why haven't you tried to approach my friends and me?"

"The year difference mainly."

"Oh." I told him what I had gone through, which didn't seem nearly as harsh or as big of an impact. We talked until about two in the morning, and after that I don't remember when we fell asleep. My dreams were all black while the one line of the new prophecy repeated in my head. "The lost one returns and the princess mourns." I woke up to a lot of talking. When I opened my eyes, I saw Alisa, Caleb, Xavier, and Raven. They were all standing in front of me. Caleb looked over at me, and saw I was awake.

"One of the love birds are awake." I looked up at him groggily.

"What lovebirds? Where are we?" I was really confused. Caleb just laughed.

"Were you guys making out like I guessed you would?" He continued to grin at me, where as I was even more confused.

"Who?"

"You and Tatlock."

"Tatlock?"

"Dude, the person you were sleeping next to, and is currently still sleeping next to you."

"Ohmygoshwhathappenedlastnight?"

"Umm... what?"

"Last night?"

"All I know is that we dragged him here after Alisa had knocked him out to prevent him from knowing about demigods."

"That was stupid, he already knows."

"What do you mean?!"

"He is one."

"What?!"
