Wildfire (Leo Valdez x OC) (1)

Spoiler alert, Elsa really let herself go

The first thing I felt when I woke up? Cold.

My entire body felt like I had been drenched in icy water and then told to play a snowball fight wearing only a pair of shorts and a vest. Don't ask how I know what that feels like.

I blinked up through frost-coated lashes and tried to clear my blurred vision.

I coughed and felt pain in my chest again. I could hear muffled yells and make out a vague shape of a person, looming above me.

I blinked and my vision finally cleared.

Leo was staring down at me worriedly; he held a flame in his palm and his other hand was resting on my forehead.

He quickly pulled his hand off my forehead and yelled something to Piper who seemed to be stood next to a giant earthen tendril, growing out of a large reflecting pool.

I groaned and rolled onto my side.

Leo quickly turned back to me and I pushed myself up into a sitting position.

"Anwen?" Leo said tentatively.

I gave him a thumbs up. "Where's Khione?"

Leo frowned. "Khione? She did this to you?"

I frowned as well. "What do you mean? Where-"

Suddenly, high, cold laughter echoed through the courtyard. Leo shot to his feet and I followed.

Leo picked up two hammers that were set on the floor beside where I had been lying. I reached for my knives but they weren't there.

"Looking for these, Daughter of Pan?" A voice called.

I turned slowly.

Khione was standing in the giant entrance, a selection of daggers in her arms and a smirk playing on her lips.

Khione waved a hand slightly and two Earthborn walked in, dragging a block of ice between them. They threw it at my feet and I looked down in horror to see Thalia, holding a hunting knife, frozen into a block of ice.

"What did you do to her?" A voice called.

I looked over to see Jason, staring at Khione angrily.

Khione laughed. "You're sisters not dead, if that's what you mean. I merely gave her some time to... cool off, just like I gave our dear friend Anwen here." She smirked.

Leo took a step forward, setting his hammers ablaze. "So, you're the one who's been behind all the things that have been happening to us. You froze Festus's wires, you tried to get Aeolus to kill us! You even convinced Hera to come here, that's why Olympus is closed!"

Khione smiled widely. "Oh, how wonderful it is to have my work appreciated! Well done, Son of Hephaestus. Now, down to business. My dear daughter of Aphrodite if you would step away from Hera's prison." She said smoothly.

Piper glared at her and drew her knife. "No."

Khione rolled her eyes. "Such stubborn beings, demigods. No matter. I'll deal with you later. Son of Hephaestus-" She shot a smile at Leo. "I know you find me beautiful, join me! You don't need your silly little friends!" She wrinkled her nose at Jason and me.

Leo blinked and glanced at me. I shot him a glance and then frowned. "You aren't seriously considering this, right? After everything we've been through? She got Festus killed!"

Leo blinked again and shook his head. Playing off his temporary confusion with a laugh. "Yeah, right! As if I'd join you. I cannot believe I thought you were hot."

Khione's eyes flashed with anger. "How dare you! I am not hot! I am- I am ice cold!"

I snorted.

Khione shot a glare at me. "I should have killed you when I had the chance, daughter of Pan. Gaia wished for you to be properly sacrificed but I'm sure I will find a more suitable method of killing you!" She raised her hands and snow drifted into the air, changing and condensing into icicles sharp as knives.

I took a step back. Khione threw my knives to the floor. "Earthborn! Capture the demigods, leave her to me."

An army of Earthborn, maybe hundreds of them, charged into the courtyard, swinging clubs in their many hands and yelling nonsensical words.

Jason picked up a frozen plank and took a fighting stance. Piper clutched her dagger, taking a step closer to Hera's prison and Leo raised his blazing hammers.

I turned to Khione and raised my fists, glancing down at my knives, scattered across the frozen ground. "Alright, Elsa." I muttered.

Khione smirked at me and dropped her hands to her sides. The icicles shot through the air towards me and I clenched my fists tightly.

Then, I felt a tug in my gut and a huge shape shot out of the ground in front of me.

Hi, sorry for yet another short chapter. And being late. Again...

I promise it wasn't on purpose. I was going to update yesterday but I went ice skating with friends again (different friends this time) and got back even later than last time.

On the bright side I AM OFFICIALLY OFF SCHOOL

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

So, that's cool. I don't know why school ended three days before Christmas, I guess they just hate me but it's fine.

I mentioned this in my Piper book but just to reiterate, updates are probably going to be slow over the Christmas holidays, I'm still going to try and update but if I don't then don't be surprised.

Since I probably won't update again before Christmas, MERRY CHRISTMAS! I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and if you don't celebrate it then I hope you enjoy your time off school :)

I hope you are having a wonderful day and if not then I hope reading this made you feel better, even just a tad.

Bye from Corgi :)

P.S. (feel free to skip) Just a reminder that all characters (apart from Anwen) belong to Rick Riordan, this is merely a fanfiction based off the Heroes of Olympus series.
