Percy

I am shaken awake. My eyes drift open to see beautiful grey eyes staring back at me. It took me a couple of seconds to fully wake up and realise it is still pitch black. I finally realise there is a noise coming from down stairs, a phone call to be precise. I spring out of bed and sprint to the kitchen, only to see my mum picking up the phone.

"Hello" she says into the speaker, she glances at me than continues to speak. "Yes he is here," she puts her mouth away and starts to speak, "Percy it's Will from the hospital." Oh no, this is going to be bad.

I grab the phone and start to speak, "hello, this is Percy."

The voice of Will Solace answers back at me, "Percy, something incredibly strange is happening, the girl she is..."

"What is wrong with her," I look behind me to see the others gathered around me.

"She is...well....she is burning," what?

"How can she be burning?"

"I don't know it is strange, I have never seen this happen before, her skin is so hot I can't touch her to help her."

"Wait she is burning?" I hear Aedion ask from behind me. I nod my head. His eyes glance knowingly towards his friends.

"We will be there in a few minutes, keep trying everything you can." I say and hang up the phone. I turn to my mum to tell her what is going on before grabbing the keys and running out the door. everyone following me. In 5 minutes we are rushing to room 23 where Aelin is.

Manon

I can't believe we didn't see if she would burn out or not, I should have known the amount of magic used to start the fire would have completely drained her. We burst into the room and I can feel the heat radiating of her. I immediately grab her arms, ignoring the burning of my hands, I have been through worse. Aedion grabs her legs, and we carry her to the closest bathroom, Dorian in tow.

"Shut the door," I call out, we can't have anyone watch this, hopefully Lysandra will make up an excuse of why we did this. We set her down on the floor and I rush my burnt hands to the sink, Aedion did the same while Dorian bent down and covered Aelin in ice. It kept melting until her temperature finally cooled down back to normal.

"That was close," Dorian said panting, I nodded my head in agreement. That was too close. I pick up her now cooled body and Aedion carries the other end as Dorian opens the door to let us out of the public bathroom. I just realised how weird we must look all coming out of the bathroom at the same time with an unconscious girl, but I let my thoughts stop, there are more important things to worry about than humans opinions.

"Bring her in her now," The doctor demanded.

"We fixed her if you are wondering," I said, laying her back on the bed. To check if we were right he touched her skin.

"How?" He asked, stunned.

"Water, we covered her in water to cool her down." Dorian replied, not completely true but not a lie.

"Why?" He asked. We can't tell him, what Aelin really was, so we just pretended we didn't hear him.

"Leo," Annabeth said, what why would she say Leo, is there someone else here, no I would of sensed them. Before I could ask she speaks.

"Can I have a talk with you guys for a quick second." We looked at each other, there is no harm in that. We nodded our heads and followed her to a quiet area of the hospital.

"I just have a few questions that's all." I nod my head, I will lie if I have to, for the witch-killer.

"Umm...question one...when you walk down the streets do you see things that are unusual, for example monsters." Well this is unexpected, hmm...how should I answer. I sensed someone, coming towards the room. Percy

"Oh I got a good test for this," he says, and takes out a pen. He un-capes it and a sword comes out from the pen. Wow that is incredible magic. "What do you see?"

"A very nice looking sword." Lysandra says.

"Do you all see that?" What type of questions are these? We all nod our head.

"Ok next question, do any of you have some sort of power or gift?" Oh no what should I say yes or no. I think I trust them enough but I will not tell them why.

"Yes," I say truthfully. The others nod their head.

"You are a demigod," Demigod? What the ? I did not see that coming.

"A what?" Dorian asks.

"Demigod, half human half god." Annabeth explains. I know that I am not but I wont tell them that, I will play along actually.

"So what kind of god or we talking about here."

"The Greek type," Percy clarifies.

"And what are the Greek gods or god," I have absolutely no idea so I thought there is no harm in asking.

"Like Zeus and stuff." Percy said. I guess we still look confused because Annabeth starts to talk about the whole history of these gods. About what feels like half and hour later she finally concludes her speech.

"And these gods are real, living in our daily lives, as well as the monster, always hunting demigods."

"I am a son of Poseidon," Percy says.

"Daughter of Athena."

"Oh that's why you call each other seaweed brain and wise Girl." Dorian says as if that is the only important thing.

"And who are we the children of?" I ask.

"Well for us to know for certain you have to be claimed by your godly parent." Percy says

"What happens when you re claimed?" Questions Dorian.

"That," He says pointing at Lysandra. I turn my head to look at her, at the glowing red symbol floating above her head. Two spears crossed over each other in a deadly, blood coloured light.
