The Curse of Icarus.

Chapter 10

Leo's P.O.V.
———————————

(After the laughter)

"Well princess, whatcha say we go train you with that so your not totally helpless" I exclaim

She waves around the staff a few times

"Sure"

~o' holy gracia this girl is cute!~

"I just have one question" Alex states

"Ask away" I wave my hand in a swooping motion

"Which Greek god is dark?"
She looks up and hold on to the staff tighter, her knuckles growing white

"Hades I think"

"And which one is light?" She walked forward as she asked.

"I think you already know the answer to that" I answer as I answer she's moves right in front of me, she's a little taller then me but only by a few inches though.

As I watch her, her shoulders begin to tremor just the slightest.
"Hey it's gonna be okay"
She looks up, a single tear falling from her face

"How do you know?" She begins to pop her knuckles

"Hey I just know. Okay?"
I put my hand on her shoulder and encase her in a hug, and she begins to hug back, her small tremors slowly dissipating.

"Thanks Leo" she takes a few deep breaths and steps back

"No problemo, but tell anyone and my reputation will be as dead as my soul"
I dramatically throw my hand to head and pretend to faint.

She laughs "okay drama queen" we both look at each other for a moment
"So you gonna show me how to work this thing or not?" She whacks me in the head and walks past me.

~oh wow... this girl is going to be the death of me... again~

Alexia's P.O.V

I'm breathing heavy as Leo rushes towards me with his war hammer,
"Fuck" I yell as I duck,
(I rhyme every other time I don't want to) (dang it)

He hits my shoulder as I stand back up.

"Okay let's be done" Leo says

"Finally" I exclaim
I slump down on the ground, covered in bruises, dirt and sweat. But Leo looks completely fine,
"How" I breath in deep attempting to regain my breath, "how long have you been at this camp?"

"Umm" he pauses "I think about 4 years"

"So you have been fighting 4 years more then me... that's why I'm losing"
He looks like he's about say I'm wrong, and then closes his mouth.

"I guess your right" he looks to his war hammer and flips it, as he's flipping it, i charge at him and whack his shins with my staff, he falls and I hit his back and he falls to the ground.

"Owwwww" he groans, "I guess I deserved that" he sits up.

"Hell yeah you did!" I smirk down at him, and then I'm on the ground.

With.

Him.

On top.

~oh boy.... this guy is cute~

"Ummm" he looks into my eyes, "can you get off?"

He realizes the position we are in and mumbles an apology.
