Percy Jackson and the Wonderful Twin

Furies & Oddballs, Oh My

Allie

The boy and I stared at each other for what seemed like hours but was most likely a few seconds. Finally, I got my wits about me and decided, I will not be dealing with this today. "See you at lunch." I told the fury. "I look forward to it." she replied, and with that I walked right back out the door, deciding to get some coffee at the nearby starbucks until lunch. I ordered a caramel macchiato and found a table at the back before deciding to run back to the apartment for a change of clothes, I'll probably need them after lunch. As I was running, my mind kept wandering to the boy. There's no way we can look that similar and not be related, even if we're just distant cousins. But that makes no sense, but I've also never known my family so it's possible we're distant cousins. But we look so alike. It makes no sense, but then again when does my life ever make sense. I got to my house, grabbed a separate bag, since I left my backpack at school. I went to my closet and pulled out ripped black jeggings, with a maroon cropped sweater. I looked at my watch. "Crap, 15 minutes till lunch." I ran to the training room and grabbed a dagger just in case. I ran out to the elevator, and as soon it reached the bottom floor I sprinted out, waving goodbye to Jeremy, the doorman. I got to the school right as the bell sounded. I let out a sigh and headed in. Time to fight a fury.

Percy

The bell sounded for lunch and I headed out looking for Annabeth. I don't remember a thing from after Allie left. During class, I was distracted by thoughts of her. Not romantically of course, I'm all Wise Girls, but how does she look so similar to me. She literally looked like a female version of me. It was crazy. Could she be another child of Poseidon. Possibly, but that didn't explain why she looked so much like me, even disregarding the eyes. I saw Annie at a table in the corner of the lunch room. "I'll ask her." I told myself as my Wise Girl waved me over. "Hi Seaweed Brain." she said, giving me a kiss. "How was Marine Biology?" She inquired. "It was the oddest thing." I started, then proceeded to tell her what happened in class up until Allie left. Annabeth had her eyebrows scrunched together until a look of horror flashed through her eyes. "Percy," she started,"what was the teacher's name?" I gave her a confused look before replying "Mrs. Dodds, wh-" Annabeth looked at me as I remembered the Algebra teacher turned fury. "Oh, gods, do you think Allie is a demi?" I asked Annie. "I don't know, but I do know we need to get to her, and fast." Annie said as she stood up. "Agreed." I replied as we rushed off. Annie's dagger hidden in her sleeve and riptide in my hand-still in pen form-as we rushed through the hallways as we got ready for the worst scenarios. We expected Allie getting chased around by a fury, instead we got her walking out the door covered in gold dust, twirling a green pen. As soon as she saw us she darted the other way. Me and Annie shared a look and chased after her.

Allie

Shit, shit shit. I had just killed Mrs. Dodds or Alecto as she calls herself, and checked outside the hallway, clear. Then I double checked that the classroom was in order before heading out the door, still covered in gold dust. But as soon as I walked out, I saw the boy, now with a girl. I took one look at them and dashed the other way. I kept running and silently swearing to myself. I spared a look over my shoulder. "Shit," I thought to myself, "They're right behind me." I didn't realize that I had turned into a dead end until I was a foot in front of a door. I tried the handle, locked. I turned around and saw the two looking at me in shock. "Hi" I said

Annabeth

Holy Hera. Percy was right, she looked just like a girl version of him. She was gorgeous if you looked past the gold dust. Her straight black hair went down to her lower back, she was about the same height as me, same tanned skin as Percy, maybe even a bit darker. I didn't realize we were staring until she said, "I talk too ya know." Dam, as sassy as Percy too. I looked at Percy, he was still staring at her, so I said, "Hi, I'm Annabeth."

"Allie, but since your boyfriend here was in my class, I suppose you already know that." said the girl. Dam, one thing was different, she was definitely smarter than Percy.

"Speaking of which," she continued, "mind telling me your name, Stalker."

This got Percy out of his trance.

"Uhhh... Percy." he said.

"Uhhhhh... cool I guess." she imitated Percy, "Mind telling me why you decided to chase me down the hallway?"

"Mind telling us why you're covered in gold dust?" I retorted

"Glitter...addiction?" she replied

"You sure about that?" Percy finally said, "Seemed more like a question."

"I'm going to take a guess and say you already know because most people have taken that answer with a weird glance in my direction." Allie retortated. Once again I say, smarter than Percy.

Percy

Dang, Allie might look like me but she's definitely smarter than me.

"So you know about-" I started but she cut me off

"Greek Monsters, ya, how do you think I killed Mrs.Dodds, although I'm surprised you can see them."

"What do you mean, of course we see them, we're demis too." I responded "Who's your parent." Was it Poseidon, it would make sense seeing as she has his eyes, but how do I not know her, plus she's at least 16 probably 17 but....

"One, demis?" she said in a confused tone, I glanced at Annabeth who seemed as confused as me, as Allie continued, "Two, I don't have a family."

"Who's your mom or dad?" Annabeth asked hesitantly.

"I said I don't have a family, I've been by myself since I was born." she responded.

Allie

"All I know are your names, so how about you stop with the personal questions." I followed up. These people are odd. But they seemed alright, although they've definitely been through some shit. They have the same broken look in their eyes but you can tell they love each other. And before you ask, I'm not mind reading but when you've been living by yourself and in constant danger for nine years, you learn to read people... and monsters. Just then the bell sounded. Since they didn't respond, I told them to meet me at my apartment after school and told the girl-Annabeth-my address since she was definitely the smart one in the group. And with that I went to class.
