Reyna

Excited, that’s how I felt when the boy had beaten the Minotaur. Although he wasn’t exactly the Roman Type the way he walked and fights. I studied his techniques and it wasn't Greek either. Who is this mysterious boy? Why does he fight with a bent sword and a stick? Yes you heard me. He fought the Minotaur with a stick. He also said a word which blast is like a Greek fire. How on earth did he do that? And the drawing that floated in front of the monster? Im sure even my Mother doesn't even know that. My Mother of Course is Bellona the Roman Goddess of War.

He introduced himself as Carter Kane. A magician of the House of Life. What is the House of life? Magicians? Did he mean the one who can produce bunnies from a black hat? All people from the Fifth Cohort are shocked about what happened this night, light blinded my eyes and I just realized that dawn was breaking.

“Fifth Cohort!  Centurions, Report for Duty!” I shouted, keeping my voice as calmly as possible.

Carter Stood beside me. He started to asked questions like “What is this place?”, “Where Am I?”, ‘What am I doing here?” something like that but I ignored him and waited for the fifth cohort’s centurions report.

Dakota from the Fifth Cohort stepped forward.

“The Night was peaceful until that boy” he pointed at Carter “Come with the Minotaur which almost destroyed the entire Rome. But Thanks to Terminus who defended the city from the Minotaur attacks. I nodded and ordered them to go back to their bunk and get some sleep. I noticed that Carter is planning to leave but before he could take another step….

“Carter, Stay With Me. We have something to discuss”

“Why? OH! Why do I even asked, you never answered” he said.

I was shocked. Never in my life as a Praetor of Rome have I encountered this kind of person.

“You have guts boy, but here in Rome you must learn some respect” I said

“Wait a minute, Rome? This is not Rome is it? I’m not in Rome right? Last night, I was just in Brooklyn chasing that bull...” he said,

“Minotaur” I corrected “Brooklyn? Not in Manhattan? Nor San Francisco?” I asked

“No. but-“

“So you live in Brooklyn and you're a demigod?”

Confusion washed over him. He raised his left eyebrow.

“What did you call me? Daemi what?” he asked

“Demigod” I replied.

“What is Demigod?”

“Demigods or half-blood, Sons and Daughters of the gods. One of our parents is a god and the other is mortal. You see we are not regular mortals, we fight monsters and we can see through the mist.”  I explained, and His eyebrow arched.

“Are you saying you’re not a demigod?” I asked

“I’m a magician of the House of life”

“Okay, who’s your godly parent?” I asked

“My Father is Dr. Julius Kane or Osiris, the lord of the underworld

Who is Osiris? The lord of the underworld was Pluto or Hades for the greeks

"Your a Magician?" He asked

"No, Im Reyna. a Demigod. Praetor of Rome SPQR"
