Wolves & Demigods - A Percy Jackson X Teen Wolf Crossover

Chapter 9 - Tattoos

Percy P.O.V
After about 15 minutes of running I started to feel exhausted, just my luck I saw a local swimming pool. I look around for any people and see that the coast is clear, but still I feel safer keeping myself dry while swimming just in case someone random waltzes by. Anyways, I jump in, willing myself dry so I don't sprout my tail. I swim down to the bottom of the pool and just lie down on the cold tiles of the pool. "*sigh*, I just wish that once in my life I could have a cool power without it being a deadly force of nature!" I start to slowly sit up, and hug my knees. "The fates are really trying to make me feel worse about myself huh?" I think out loud. Then you'd imagine my surprise when someone replied to me.

"Oh Perseus. I'm so sorry you feel this way." I turn in shock towards the voice and see my father sitting besides me. "Oh. Sorry dad, I didn't realise you were listening." I said sadly. "Of course I was Percy, you are in a hard time of your life right now, the best I can do is provide you with advice the best I can." He reassured me. "Dad, I don't understand. The first time I realised I had a darker side to my powers was when I could control poison. Then Tartarus, with the whole blood bending thing, and now this. I can literally drown people in their own water from their bodies, just by singing to them. Is there anything that I can do that *isn't* deadly to people?" I said. "Perseus, I promise you that these siren abilities will allow you to sing without harming people! I'm guessing that what happened in the school is a result of you using it for the first time. And no, your humming wasn't the pure power of your voice. It's only a small portion of the many things you can do." He explained. I smiled at his reassurance.

"Thanks for trying to cheer me up dad. But is there really any way I can sing without hurting people? Like proper singing, not humming." I ask him scared. "Of course! You could definitely use it like a charm speak. And if you really wanted to you could even convince people to tell you what you wish." He further explained. "Oh wow, thats actually really helpful!" I said piping up. "Oh and son?" Dad suddenly chirped. "Yeah dad?" I ask curiously. "How come you aren't in your siren form?" "O-oh I was just being careful. And I was kinda insecure after what happened in the school." I explained kind of embarrassed. "Well Theres no need to worry right now son, you are safe here with me." He said kindly. I smile and will myself to be soaked in water, instantly growing my tail and the rest of my features. I smile slightly at the appearance. "Thankyou father. For being here to help me." I said sincerely. He smiled and gave me a warm hug. "Of course Percy."

Up above I could hear the muffled shouts of Scott calling for me. "I think that's my cue to leave. I'll let you and Scott be for now. But Percy, you and Scott are tied together somehow. I know you two are cousins but there's something else that ties the two of you together. Perhaps it's because you are both very loyal to your family and friends but I suppose time will tell. Goodbye Percy, I will see you again soon." He said, rather ominous if you ask me. But I nod and gave him a small smile as I turned away and when I looked back he was gone, only leaving the sent of the ocean behind. After dad was gone I swam up to the surface to greet Scott. "Oh there you are! I knew I could hear voices. I'm guessing your dad was here?" He said. I swim over to the edge of the pool. "Yeah, he wanted to pay me a visit after the whole school fiasco." I explained. He nodded in understanding. "Hey, I noticed you have a tattoo there. It's a trident." He pointed out fascinated. "Oh yeah! It's the symbol of my father. I almost forgot I had it. I got it at the Roman camp Jason, Hazel and Frank are from. I see you have a tattoo too." I pointed to a banded tattoo on Scott's arm. "Oh yeah, it's the symbol of my pack. I first tried to get it done the proper way but it instantly healed, so then I had to get it burnt on." He explained. "Haha that's the way I got mine, they brand you with the SPQR, symbol of your godly parent and then how many years or how much service you've done for the Roman legion." I said.

"Here, do you want a hand out of the pool?" Scott offered. "Sure! Thanks!" I said smiling. As Scott and I did the monkey grip to get me out of the pool, something really strange happened. All of a sudden Scott's eyes turned his alpha red. "Um Percy? Why did your eyes suddenly become brighter green like they do for your siren form?" Scott asked me. "Im in my siren form so it's not strange. But what is strange is *your* eyes! They became red!" I said a little freaked out. Then just as Scott pulled me up we both yelled out in pain. A searing pain shot through my arm. I could tell Scott was experiencing the exact same pain, then I remembered dads words. 'Your humming wasn't the pure power of your voice. It's only a small portion of the many things you can do.' I thought over and over again in my head, then I started to sing through the pain. The song I was singing earlier. "Perce...what are you doing?" Scott asked me. I gestured to our arms. "Im seeing if I can ease the pain a little for the both of us." I said. He nods in understanding and I continue to sing. As I'm singing I realise it's working, the pain is disappearing. Once the song is done, the pain completely goes away. "Oh my gods! It worked! I can't believe it!" I said happily. "I knew you could! Thanks perce." Scott thanked me. I nod to him to welcome him, then I look at the water and silently thank my father for helping me figure out my powers a little bit. "Percy, what's that on your arm?" Scott says to me, alarmed. I look at his arm and see something familiar"what's that on your arm?!"

We both look at our arms and see that both of us have the exact same tattoos as each other. In the exact same spots. Only except the perfect copies are glowing. The two bands on my arm glowing a sea green and then a trident on Scott's arm, glowing a coral red. "Ok I have no idea why we have each other's tattoos, heck I have no idea why the copies are glowing, but it has to mean something. And Scott, how come your fully shifted?" I ask him curiously. As he looks at his hands he gets a flash of worry appearing on his face. "I have no idea to any of that!" He answers unsure. "Let's just de transform and head over to dereks loft. Everyone's waiting there for us." I nod and I change back, Scott the same. "And ok another weird thing. Once we aren't in our forms, the tattoo copies are gone." I said shocked. "Your right. I have no idea what this means but we should ask peter, he might know what's happening." I nod and we head over to dereks loft. I need some answers for all of this, I just hope some of what dad told me is the answer, just hidden amongst a whole bunch of riddles and seaweed.
