Chapter 6 : Ashley - Daughter if the Big 3

Once we arrive to the Big House, we get right down to business. We have all gathered in Chiron's office, which is surprisingly roomy. The Conversation went a little like this.

Percy : I still don't understand how this is even possible
Poseidon : Well, you see Percy, Ashley is my daughter. But her mom, Christina Knight, is a daughter of Zeus, and her grandmother, Jennifer Knight, a daughter of Hades...
Chiron : ... Which automatically makes her the most powerful demigod in two thousand years...
Me : I'm right here you know.
Zeus : Yeah, yeah. We need to make sure she's safe.
Chiron : Of course. She will be staying in cabin 3 then?
Poseidon : Yes, that would be most suitable
Me : HELLO!? I am right here you know!!

Annabeth puts a hand on my shoulder. I sigh. Five minutes later, I'm still being ignored by the gods and Chiron. Mr. D is... Actually, I have no idea what the heck he's doing. I just don't get it. Why didn't my mom tell me anything about this? Seems kinda important to tell you daughter if she's the most powerful demigod in hundreds of years. But I guess it makes sense. I've always been the best swimmer on the swim team, and it always happens to be windy when I'm angry, or upset. And I always... Uh... Hades? What can I do? I wonder.
"You have a sword I assume?" Says Hades, snapping me out of my train of thought.
"Oh yeah. I found out I was a demigod just this morning. I already carried a sword around. Just for fun." I say.
"Watch it.." Poseidon starts
"Wait... That bracelet..." Hades starts. "That was Jenn's." He says pointing to my bracelet. I wear it everyday. My mom gave it to me on my eleventh birthday. It's strands of gold, bronze, and some black metal all intertwined.
"My mom gave this to me." I say
"Throw it in the air." Says Zeus. "And make sure you catch it." I pull off my bracelet and toss it up in the air. When I catch it, it turns into a bronze sword. On the hilt there is beautiful engraving, a trident, a lightning bolt, and the helm of darkness, just like the symbol that had been hovering over my head earlier. It's sticking out a bit, and I realize that is is a bit like a button. I press it, and my sword turns back into a bracelet. I notice something on my bracelet I have never seen before. An engraving. Agnó Skótos. Pure darkness. I throw the bracelet in the air again and catch it in my hand. This time, it's black.
"Stygian Iron." Hades says, seeing the puzzled look on my face. "The sword takes one of three forms. Imperial gold, stygian Iron, ot celestial bronze. The form it takes is random, unless you are in combat. Then, it will take whichever form that it thinks is most useful."
I turn the sword back into my bracelet, and the gods leave the room. We all sit there, silent. Finally, Chiron breaks the silence. "Percy. Please bring Ashley to cabin 3 and help her get settled. Capture the flag will start in an hour."
Percy leads me out of the big house. "So, I have a sister." He says.
"Yep. What does it feel like?" I say, teasingly.
"That depends... What's it like having a brother?"
"Well considering you're the brother, it sucks" I say making fun of him
"Ouch. That hurt." He says putting his hand over his heart. "Hey, can I see your sword?" He says.
"Sure" I say I throw the bracelet into the air and catch it. This time, it's Imperial Gold. I hand it over.
"Pure Darkness?" He says.
"Yeah. Hades gave it to my grandmother. Apparently, back then, it was only Stygian Iron. You know, because its pure black, so Pure Darkness. Then, when my mom got it, it was Imperial Gold and Stygian Iron. Now, Celestial Bronze is in there too." I reply.
"Are you sure you aren't a daughter of Athena?" He teases. I shove him.
"So can you control wind? And water? And um... Death?" Hes asks.
"I have no Idea." I say.
"Well we could help you, you know. Me and Jason I mean."
"Thanks" I say. "But how am I going to figure out the death powers part?"
"Well... There is one known son of Hades... But he's not around much. Maybe we can talk to Chiron about it. We might be able to Iris-Message him. Or his dad could summon him."
"Oh. Okay."
" C'mon, we have to get ready for Capture the Flag" Percy says. "Race ya to the cabin" He takes off. I run after him, laughing. We tear through camp. I finally feel like I belong. Like I'm home.
