Demigods Of The Underworld

"Mischief run!" Claudia yelled pulling the young boy behind her, the sounds of ear piercing roars and booming footfalls echoing behind them getting closer by the second
"Mom!" Stiles yelled scared and confused
They ran through the trees, low branches whipping against their skin leaving small cuts, looking back Stiles spotted something incredibly large chasing them and catching up quite quickly, he screamed for his mother again, his eyes glazing over with tears, scared out of his mind
"Mieczyslaw come on baby don't look back!" She yelled pushing him in front of her still keeping the tight grip on his hand
"Claudia!" A deep voice yelled from ahead of them
Hearing the familiar voice she looked ahead with hope spotting her dear friend running towards them
"Chiron! Help him please!" She screamed her mind focused on her little boy, her precious gift that she loved me than life itself
Reaching the pair, he lifted the boy in his arms, pulling the mother onto his back adamant on protecting them both leaving no one behind

Chiron ran, faster than he has before, leaping over tree and rock, hoping to reach the border of camp half-blood before the advancing minotaur caught up them, the boy in his arms holding on for dear life hisface tightly tucked into the centaurs chest his eyes screwed shut with tears escaping every so often, the woman on his back looking behind watching as the beast following slowly get closer and closer

The camp came into view as well as the camps own God as well as some of the older campers with swords in hand ready to protect if needed
"Hold on!" Chiron yelled to the woman on his back as he speeds up, reaching the camp just in time
Just as he passes into the camp the minotaur slams into border that protects the inhabitants from the dancers that hunt them
"Cutting it close there Chiron" Dionysus the god of wine making and fertility scolded stepping forward
"When have you ever known me to not be on time" the centaur retorted placing the boy in his arms on the ground as Dionysus helped the human
"Thamk you" Claudia said pulling Stiles to her in a tight embrace
"You're welcome dear friend, I'm sorry I didn't get there sooner" Chiron bowed slightly
"Mom" the teary eyed boy sniffled looking around at everyone them
"It's okay baby we're safe now" she reassured
"Noah?" Dionysus questions not seeing the man
"At home, safe" she said breathlessly

The three adults and the young demigod moved to a more private place to speak, Stiles clinging to his mother still scared and slightly dazed from the whole situation
"What are you doing here Claudia?" Was the first thing Dionysus asked when they got to his office in the main house
"It's not safe for Mieczyslaw to be at home right now, I have creatures turning up out of nowhere trying to hurt him, he needs to be trained to protect himself from someone who can actually help" Claudia explained taking a seat on one of the many chairs
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Chiron asked
"Yes I'm sure and I know he hasn't been claimed yet but we know who his father is and I know that he'll be taken care of by his brother" She stated confident yet slightly hesitant
"Ah yes young Lucien Harlow, the lone inhabiter of cabin 13" Dionysus said out loud looking out the window at said cabin
"Stiles, I'm Chiron, I'll be helping look after you for a little while" Chiron greeted bending down to shake his hand
The twelve year old glared at up at the man, not liking a stranger being so close to his mother especially when the stranger is part horse
"With a glare like that there's no doubting he's one of Hades" Dionysus mused, having got the same glare from both the older demigod and the god himself

Marny Cove, camp half-bloods very own purple-winged grasshopper nymph walks towards cabin 13 in hopes of retrieving her friend
"Lu?" She calls out knocking on the door to the basically empty cabin, with no answer she knocks again and again and again
With still no answer her not fully developed wings flickered in annoyance, huffing to herself she pushes open the door letting light into the dark and gloomy room, looking amongst the shadows she smiles to herself as she spots the black of his hair his back leaning on his bed in the darkness, closing the door she steps forward her eyes used to the dark from spending so much time with the prince of darkness
"Hey pretty boy" she greets climbing on the boys bed, laying down on her stomach
"Don't you know that when somebody doesn't answer the door it usually means go away" his deep voice answered, his focus on cleaning his sword
"Mhm sure" she sassed, watching his hands move down the obsidian blade, the blue glow of his hellfire from the intetional cracks casting a haunting glow on his sharp features
"Dionysus wants you, apparently there is a unclaimed he wants you to meet" she said earning a hum of acknowledgement
He stood with a sigh, placing the sword back in it's sheath, he turned to the girl holding a hand out to the nymph on his bed he helped her up his face showing no emotion other than annoyance

Exiting the cabin the two friends walk side by side, looking like the strangest pair, her colour, his black they were truly the example of opposites attract, they were the yin ang yang of the camp, two half's of a whole and even though Lucien liked his solitude he doesn't hate the idea of having the girl at his side, reaching the big house the two step inside not sure what to expect
"I'm here you better not be waisting my time" Lucien called out while holding the door for his companion
"Ah Lucien I would like you to meet Stiles, your brother" Dionysus said his eyes lighting up in amusement as he watches his cousins head snap in their direction
Lucien and Stiles eye meet both flashing a flaming blue before turning back to their normal colours
