Daughter of Olympus

ANGELA POV : THE D-LIST GOD

All of a sudden, everything went white. Then, a guy, about my age, pointed a sword at my throat. He had dark blue eyes and ruffled brown hair. He kind of looked like my brother, Eros. "Get away" he said in a shaky voice. He was obviously on the verge of tears. "Get away!" he said, much louder. "She'll kill me if you don't". We remained in an awkward silence. '"I'm just a d-list god" he mumbled. His blue eyes changed to a much lighter shade. "Umm" I mumbled. He jumped back, taken aback that I had actually spoken. He started to blush, which looked kind of cute. He scratched his neck. "Um, if you don't mind, I have orders to kill you" he claimed, embarrassed. 'Wow, he's cute and polite', one side of me thought. The other side thought, 'Eww, why would I think that? '. I tried to think of something clever to say like, "Well, if you have orders, doesn't mean you need to follow them". He laughed. "Well, that's a stupid question". Shoot, did I say that aloud? He smiled, which was dazzling! Eww, no. I'm Angela, a tomboy. I won't let a man ruin that, not after what happened with Festus. His eyes seemed to examine me, his blue eyes made me jump back. They were electric blue. Is that possible? His eyes were dark blue a few seconds ago. Then again, a homeless person being a goddess is also impossible. His once dark eyes stared at me. I heard a huge howl of the wind behind me and I  fell backwards. His eyes turned dark again, then he jumped forward to catch me. He caught me, and we stayed in the same position for a moment. "Wow, I leave you alone for a moment and this happens" said a cold voice. The voice came from a beautiful young lady with black hair and brown eyes. She had kind of a cold vibe. The lady had a glinting silver tiara placed on her head.  Her dark blue coat matched the boy's eyes perfectly. Not following my orders like usual, right Jakie?". "For the last time, don't call me Jakie" muttered the boy. "What?! I thought you liked the mortal name?" said the woman, flicking her hair. "I do, but not like that" he mumbled through gritted teeth. "Oh honey" she squealed. "You know I love you". "Oh, put a cork in it" he retorted. With a flick of her wrist, Jake was on the floor, shrieking. "Oh honey, I thought we had the talk about good manners" the woman gasped. "We need to look our best in front of our guests". She winked in my direction. "But I thought you wanted me to-". He winced in pain. The woman gave Jake a look that pretty much said 'Shut up or you'll be the one dead'. The woman smiled in my direction. "Hello dear, I'm Jemma, as Jake likes to call me.". Jake tried to say something, but he yelped in pain. "Now dear" Jemma warned. "Don't listen to Jake, he's a big party pooper". She pouted in Jake's direction. "I'll give you the proper house tour." she squealed. "But I need to go back to camp half blood" I added. Jake's blue eyes lit up, "Camp Half-Blood?". "Now Jakie" warned the woman. "Don't you want to stay with your Mamma instead of going to that filthy place?".  "No mom, I'm a demigod. I belong there" he begged. "No! You've been given the gift of immortality for a reason! I need to figure it out!" she yelled. "No!" Jake yelled, even louder. "You could have at least let me live with dad!". "Don't bring your father into this!" she shrieked. "Why not?!" Jake retorted. "You haven't let me see him for 5 years!". Jemma screamed and burst into tears. "He's dead Jakie!" she sobbed. "You're all I have, my child is the only thing I have left!". Jake's figure softened for a moment, then hardened. "My entire life was a lie, wasn't it?" he snapped. "You wouldn't even let me see the person I truly cared about, Amelia!". My heart sunk at that name. I remembered what Amelia had told me, that her weakness was love. Was this the person that she had fallen in love with? I can't ruin our friendship. I aldredy ruined mine with Festus. Jake looked my direction. "What happened?" he asked. "You looked as if you've just seen a ghost!". We stood there for a moment, hearing the sound of Jemma cry. It was a really ugly cry, surprisingly for a beautiful girl. "Amelia huh?" I whispered. "Was it before or after the- incident". Jake looked surprised, "What do you mean?". I waited for everything to come back to him. "Oh" he gasped when the realization struck him.  "Is she still a- a werewolf?". I nodded. Jake started to spill his 'love story' between him and Amelia. So apparently, he used to live with his dad. His dad was a director at BMDW TV station. Him and Amelia went to school together. She had dark red hair and black and silver eyes. She also was one of the 'barbies' in the school. She would wear what a typical Californian girl would wear. Her dad was known as the 'bald guy'. Him and Amelia were opposites, so that was what brought them together even more. They eventually started dating about 2 years later. One night, Amelia called him and said she was seeing things. She was seeing things like blood splattered everywhere and wolves outside her porch every night. She said a bunch of wolves are gathered around her house. She locked herself in the bathroom. After that, all he could hear was a door swinging open and Amelia screaming. The screaming stopped after a loud howl. The line dropped and Jake drove all the way to her house. When he stepped outside, he saw the front door unlocked. He ran inside and saw a very angry Amelia.  Except, she looked like a wolf. Her long red hair swirled around her, creating the illusion of fur. Large dog ears sprouted from her head. Her fangs dripped blood. Her longs nails looked like claws. Jake said he didn't remember what happened after that, but he remembered a lot of screaming. He wasn't sure who was  screaming, him or her. "Hey, you" mumbled Jake. "How-How does camp half blood look like?". I rubbed my arm, "Well, I haven't been there for long". Jake looked confused, but not for long. Jemma screamed and grabbed my arm. Cold flared across my arm. Suprisingly, it didn't hurt. I pulled my hand away from her, "What the hades?!". Jake quickly grabbed my arm and ran. Instinctevly, I ran with him. I heard him laughing and saying "Finally! Away from that awful place!". I looked behind me. Behind me was a huge ice castle. When I looked back, all I saw was a huge death drop. I yanked my arm from his grasp. "Do you trust me?" Jake asked, giving me his hand. I nodded and took his hand. Then, we fell into the death drop.
