Percy Jackson: The Lost

Hanging with Clarisse

I walked to the stables and as I did I looked around and noticed all the new kids and new equipment. I glanced over and saw Coach Hedge with a ten year old girl and his wife Mellie. He had his baseball bat in his hand resting on his shoulder. He looked like he was ready to take on anything but his expression was just pure joy. He has the biggest smile on his face and he was just having an all around good time. His daughter was running around by the lake. She was running around and then she ran out onto the dock and she was playing on the dock when she tripped. She was about to fall into the water which was VERY bad right now because sharks usually get lost here right about now and they would be hungry. As she fell in I used the water and helped her back up and onto the dock. I walked down there to see her and let me tell you she was a pretty interesting kid she was a wind spirit like Mellie but also a saytr like Coach Hedge. She was just staring down at the water wondering how it did that so I spoke up

"Luckly I caught you there it's not fun accidentaly falling in a lake huh?"

"Yeah" she replied "So you saved me?" she asked

"Yes I did" I said smiling

"Well how?" she asked looking totally flaberghasted

"Well I'm a Son of Posiedon so I can used water and make it do any thing I want it to."

"So you used it to put me back on the dock?"

"Yes I did I couldn't let a nice little girl fall into the lake and believe me I've done it and it isn't as fun as it seems."

"Well what else can you do with water?"

"Well almost anything really. Want to see?"

"Yes yes yes pleeeeeease" she said and I laughed she was one funny kid

"Alright, check this out."I said as I rose the water up and formed a rose. It was a rose made of water but using some of my powers I got from the river Chaos I turned it into a real rose and I bent down and gave it to her. She took a deep smell of it

"Thanks! I love it it smells like a ocean breeze."

"No problem" I said smiling

"I'm gonna go show my Mom and Dad!" she said

"Alright I'm sure they'll love it and you don't even have to water it and it will last forever."

"Thank you" she said hugging me

"Don't mention it" I said as I stood up

"What's your name?" she asked

"Tell them it was from Percy" I said smiling. They hadn't been here a few days ago they were in California visiting Piper's dad Tristan Mclean. She ran up to Mellie and Coach Hedge and showed them the flower. Coach Hedge had been taking a drink of water and I figured she told him who it was from and he did a spit take that would have went all over the little girl but I blocked her from it. I heard Coach say

"Percy?"

"Yes that's what I said Dad"

"Where is he!" he said with excitment in his voice and she pointed to the docks but I had already dissapeared and was on my way to the pegesus stables. I was looking back at them and the little girl was very confused and wondering where I went.Then I bumped into a girl and she would have fallen but I caught her. I was holding her like people do in a salsa dance when they are dipped. We just stared at each other for a minute then she said something

"Thanks for catching me Jackson" it was Clarisse which made this very awkward

"Don't mention it" I said putting her back on her feet
