Everything Is Not What It Seems

Explanation and Back to NY

John POV
They saw Stiles in flames. That is worrying. What if they try to take advantage of him? I get that they're his friends, but they lost the rank of best friends. Meaning that they might try to take advantage. Derek already tried biting him, that's why he went to NY, but he's going back. As much as I don't want him to go back, nothing can stop him. "Stiles' demigod father is Hephaestus. Hephaestus is the god of blacksmith and fire. Meaning that the fire part is very rare. Stiles is one of the rare ones." They nod and I hear Stiles coming down the stairs with a suitcase. "Alright, I got a flight for tomorrow. It's at 9:00 AM." I nod, but the pack look at him shocked. "I get he's your boyfriend, but, come on, don't you think you're taking this too far. Maybe they just need to look for him a bit more." I glare at Jackson. How dare he say that? Percy is like a son to me. Also, it's the demigod world. If a demigod goes missing, then that means there's true danger going on. "What. Did. You. Just. Say?!" Stiles now has Jackson against the wall. His hands are starting to smoke and I know that if I don't stop him, Jackson will be a memory. "Stiles! Calm down! You're gonna cause a scene in front of everybody. Also, we kind of don't want a dead person in our house. Calm down. Think of Thalia. Would she want you to kill someone?" He freezes and I know I've struck a cord. He lets go and turns to me. "Thalia isn't dead anymore dad. Also, she's a hunter now, she's enjoying her life." I nod, having known this since the war. Since my son first got PTSD. "Who's Thalia?" I look over at Liam and I have to remind myself that he's only a Sophomore. "She's my best friend. I've known her since I was 7 years old. She was killed by a cyclops. She came back to life when we found a Golden Fleece. Don't know what it is? Look it up." I chuckle and say, "well I'm going to bed. I wont see you tomorrow so, have a good flight and call me when you get to Sally's. I need to know how the others are too." He nods and I go upstairs to my room. Beautiful sleep here I come.
Stiles POV
Tomorrow morning after Stiles lands.
I get to Sally's apartment and see Paul there. "Hey Paul. Hi Sally." I hear her sigh with relief and hug me. "How are you doing? Have you been eating properly?" I nod and ask, "how about you? How're you doing?" She nods and I know that she's fine. "I have to go to the camp to check on everyone else. I need to see what the catastrophe is now." She laughs and nods. "Be careful. I don't want to have to lose both of you, alright?" I nod and wave to Paul. I leave the apartment and call for a taxi. I tell the driver to go to Long Island Sound and know that this will be a catastrophe.
