"What does it mean? What is Percy's hidden power?" Jason asked. They all turned to Annabeth, who was pale.
"A siren." Was all she said. Leo frowned.
"That's not a power. That's a thing." Leo said. Annabeth looked up at him.
"I know. Percy isn't a demigod. Or, more specifically, a half-blood." She said. Frank frowned.
"If he isn't a half-blood, what is he?"
"A tri-blood."
"A what now?" Leo asked. "What does it mean? Does he have three types of blood?" Leo said, confused. Annabeth sighed.
"Percy.... He's a tri-blood. He's part god. He's part human. And... he's part siren." Annabeth said. The others glanced at each other.
"Is that good or bad?" Hazel asked. Annabeth sighed.
"I really don't know."
"Wise Girl not knowing something? That's new." A new voice said. The demigods whirled around, to see a male figure standing in the doorway.
"Percy!" Annabeth said, as she hid the book behind her back.
"The one and only." Percy joked, his eyes sparkling. He frowned, when no one laughed.
"What? Did I say something?" Percy asked, confused.
"No." Annabeth said quickly. "We-we were just heading over to the event the Apollo cabin is hosting."
"Oh, I was about to tell you about that. They cancelled it for some reason." He said.
"Come on! They always cancel their stuff!" Leo whined, trying to cover up for the tension in the room. Percy's eyebrows rose.
"Leo?"
"Yeah?"
"You do realize that this is the first time the Apollo cabin hosted an event, right?" Percy said. Leo paled at his mistake.
"Y-yeah. I was joking." Leo said.
"Ok guys. What's going on?" Percy asked, staring at them all.
"It's nothing, Seaweed Brain." Annabeth said. "Since the Apollo Cabin cancelled the event, we can all do something together." Annabeth said cheerfully. Percy cracked a grin, as the others laughed nervously.
"Sure." They all said.
"But what?" Hazel asked, eyes darting to Percy, before racing to a different part of the room.
"How about karaoke?" Annabeth said. The eyes of the others widened, as they realized her plan. Percy paled.
"Um... I'll sit out." Percy said. Annabeth laughed.
"Nope. Everyone's doing it. She said, as she dragged Percy out of the room. They all raced after Annabeth, as she led them to Cabin Three.
"Why my cabin?" Percy whined.
"Because it's the only one with privacy, Seaweed Brain." Annabeth said.
"What about Jason's cabin?"
"Thalia."
"The hunters aren't here."
"This one is closer."
"His is literally right next to mine."
"Whatever. Let's just stay here." Annabeth said, as they all sat down inside Percy's cabin. Percy rolled his eyes, before freezing. Annabeth followed his gaze, to see the empty space on the desk where the notebook used to be. Instead of the notebook, was the sunscreen Annabeth had left. Annabeth paled, as the others realized what had happened. Annabeth's slowly trailed her eyes back to Percy, and yelped silently.
His gaze was trained on her, and was in his wolf-stare.
"Percy, I-"
"Didn't mean to invade my privacy?" Percy said coldly, as Annabeth flinched. The others stared at Percy with wide eyes, never seeing him like this. They all shrieked, as they watched his sea green eyes become a royal blue.
"Now that you know my secret, I can't let you just wander around." Percy said, as the others scrambled to their feet.
"Run!" Piper yelled, as they scrambled for the door. Percy smirked, before waving his hand. Yells of pain and shock were heard, as the six demigods froze, unable to move. Percy jerked his hand, making all of them face him. Percy let loose a small cackle, something they had never heard before.
"Sooner or later, I was going to do this anyways." He said. He waved his hand, and they all marched stiffly into a circle. Her waved his hand again, and they all turned around. No one could see any of the others.
"What are you going to do to us?" Hazel asked, her voice trembling.
"Nothing that you'll remember." Percy said. Annabeth's eyes widened in realization, as she struggled to move her body. Percy moved to stand in front of Piper. Annabeth heard him whisper something inaudible.
"Percy? What are you-" Piper's voice cut off, as Percy's footsteps were heard. One by one, the other demigods went silent, as Percy whispered things inaudible to Annabeth. Annabeth shivered, as Percy went up to her. He caressed her cheek, stroking her hair.
"You just had to come in her and snoop around, didn't you?" Percy said softly. Annabeth yelped, as he grabbed her chin, forcing her to look at him. She looked into his eyes defiantly.
"BIg mistake." Percy whispered. She watched in horrified fascination, as his eyes began to swirl, before becoming a hypnotic design. She stared into his eyes, as she felt him release his control over her blood. But she continued to stare into his eyes, swaying. Percy smirked as he moved closer to her. She shivered slightly, as she felt his breath on him. She felt her body go slack. Percy held up her head with his finger, as she continued to stare into his eyes, the same design swirling in her own grey eyes, as they became a royal blue color. Percy leaned over her, and whispered into her ear.
"When you wake up, you won't remember anything that you learned about me, or anything that happened. You will never have the urge to look into my things. And you will do everything I say. Everything." He whispered. He smirked.
"Sleep." He whispered, as Annabeth collapsed onto the floor. He looked over all of the unconscious demigods. One by one, he took them back to their cabins. When alone once more, he looked down at the small notebook, sitting on the floor.
"The plan worked perfectly." Percy muttered, as his eyes returned to their sea green color. He looked up at the ceiling, and waved his hand. The paint peeled off, to reveal the images of three beautiful women, sitting on rocks.
"Soon sisters. Soon, I'll have an army. And you will be allowed into the real world once more. And together, we will rule." Percy whispered, as he cackled. The cackle raced through the camp, making some shiver.
Peace would never come close to existing, ever again.
