ANYONE BUT HER

I should stop ignoring those pains. Every-time they happen something happens. Now I'm rushing with Time to get to the Colorless Guard headquarters.

Okay, so quick catch up.

After the thunderstorm started a Colorless Guard teleported to the house and pounded at the door, claiming some monster had attacked them. Now me and Time are on our way to Stop said monster. And I really hope it's not a monster from behind the mist. It is hard enough to explain why I have two types of blood.

It is harder to explain why a monster calls me 'Sky Brat' or 'Lightening Prince.' That would be more of a pain than dealing with Professor Red trying to break in and kidnap me.

Soon we reach the Headquarters and I have to hold back a laugh that builds in me.

There punching the daylights out of Light is a 5 '11 brunette girl with a spear. Who just happened to be Clarisse La Rue, Daughter of Ares, survivor of both wars.

Then there was Light.

This 10 '6 albino looking man with large owl-like wings, a long tail and four horns, two of which look like clear crystal. Ex-Rainbow Steve, survivor of the darkness, Void, First Curse, and holder of the light crystal. Was on the muddy ground, trying to get away from someone half his height.

A small chuckle leaves my lips as I go up to Clarisse, multiple guards try to stop me, but thanks to my height I can easily get out of the way of their arms. I quickly run up to Clarisse and tap her shoulder. She spins around and points her spear at my throat. Huh, this feels familiar. Oh, I remember, it's familiar to that time the colorless guard surrounded me when I tried to explain my plan to use the darkness for good.

Fond memories, but I should move, Clarisse is a trained killer. She'll hold no plight in stabbing my throat out of my neck.

"I don't think that would be a wise idea to stab me, Miss La Rue." I state calmly pressing my pointer and middle fingers to the blade of her spear to move it to the side. She stares at me confused for a moment, she steps back and holds her spear back at my chest.

The Colorless Guard finally snap out of shock and hold up their spears and shields, making a phalanx formation. Making sure neither Clarisse nor I could escape, well to their knowledge we couldn't escape. At Camp Jupiter it was expected for us to learn how to escape our own formations in case our soldiers turned on us.

"Grace?" Clarisse asked as she slowly lowered her spear. Her dark eyes darted over me, from the scar that crossed my lip, to the bandages on my hands, even to my hair that was starting to grow out to be blonde again. She wanted to see my eyes, I could tell from her eyes. Focused solely on my blindfold, calculating what type of cut would be needed, what speed she'd need to do it at.

Running the risk over in her head.

"Last I checked, that was indeed the last name." I state as I pull out Juno's Gladius. Having found it a while after I had returned to this timeline. It had landed in a river and had been covered in years worth of grime. But now the imperial gold sword shines like when I had first received it.

"Hera's Gladius..." Clarisse spoke softly now, lowering her weapon.

"Indeed, now how are you here Miss La Rue?" I ask putting the blade away. The gold shining in lantern light, as the rain and thunder rumbling.

"I would prefer to not speak in the rain, and it's a long story." Clarisse remarks, holding her spear close.

"We have the time." I declare soundly leaving no room for argument.
