The Scythe of Thanatos

Keith

"What, How?" i stuttered looking at the book. it looked old with a folded cover, obviously read more than once.

"i have no idea, but this just got really interesting." he went and grabbed all the books some were rather thick. the titles were still fuzzy to my eyes. "how much of this is true." he asked and launched into a brief summery of all the things about Percy Jackson that the kids at camp had told me.

"So you know all about camp and the adventures Percy has been on?"

"i think so, but there may be some things Riordan left out."

"Riordan?  who is he?"

"the author." he he stared at me.

"so who are you?"

"Keith Lykin." he responded "and who are you?"

"Seth Meurte, son of Thanatos"

"how does that work?"

"i have no idea."

"what kind of quest are you on right now?"

"I'm going to Alaska to fight khione to get my fathers scythe."

"do you know where in Alaska she is?"

"no." i replied flatly 

"try Hubbard glacier. that's where Thanatos was imprisoned."

"thanks, do you think you are a demigod like us?"

"i'd hope so, that would be really cool." he looked down " but I've got no idea who my mother could be."

"probably Hecate, she is the goddess of magic." he looked hopeful.

"so am i good to go? 'cause i don't know how this whole healing thing works... wait why didn't i think of this before?!" i snapped my left hand and nothing happened. "oh good i'm ok."

"what was that snapping?"

"healing."

"i thought you were a son of thanatos..."

"i am," i was thinking a bout how to get to Alaska when i remembered. "shadow travelling! duh."

"wait like nico?"

"yeah."

"cool", he looked at the door. "could you take me to camp half-blood?"

"sure, i'll come back for you when my quest is over." i looked at the books again," though you could be roman, i heard there are those kind of demi-gods too."

"oh yeah, like Jason, frank and Hazel."

"hazel, I'm on a quest with her, and nico."

"so?"

"anything i should know about them?"

"hazel can use the mist control precious metals and call upon arion, a really fast horse." he grabbed one of the larger books. "nico can shadow travel, can move bones, can talk to ghosts, and-"

"and what?"

"its his choice to tell you, not mine. ill leave it at that. good luck on your quest and come back for me, death kid."

"thanks, well it's good bye then."

"yeah, see you." he glanced at the door and i fell through his bed onto the grass where we were before the whole Janus incident.
