His peacock outfit


Deku POV

After I explained everything to the two scary looking guys and the half horse man they all seemed really worried about something as they mulled over the conversation. Thankfully, they no longer looked like they might kill me and now looked more like I had just walked over to their picnic and sneezed right on their cake.

I glanced at the horse man, didn't he say that he didn't have a quirk, which was impossible I mean he's half freaking horse! I looked to my side at the other scary guy. He was looking down and met my eyes. Geez, remind me never to get on his guy's kill list. Because trust me, he's definitely got one.

I quickly looked away, despite the kill vibe this guy looked a lot more like the summer camp type. He had the same orange shirt that I had seen around and a leather bead necklace. His eyes were scary (all ready noted), but were a cool greeny bluey color. Unlike the other scary guy he had very tan skin and a strange white strip of hair in his bangs.

"I think we better clear up any confusion and explain what's going on", I looked up at the horse guy, "But first why don't we introduce ourselves... My name's Chiron and I help run this camp." I stood up and bowed to him. Only when I looked up to see their slightly confused expressions did I remember that bowing wasn't normal for Americans. Great, I already screwed up.

"Uh, sorry I forgot people don't have that custom here," I shrank down trying to stop the embarrassed blush from coming.

"It's not a problem Izuku, my names Nico Di Angelo and I'm sorry if I scared you back there", I sat back down. I turned to peer at the Mr. murder eyes.

I nervously laughed, "It's fine...What's your name?"

"Percy Jackson, if you don't mind me asking, how old are you turning today?"

Feeling a little bit better I held my head up high, "Nine!" I exclaimed happily.

"Well we will certainly need to get you a cake for dinner don't ya think?" He russled my hair and laughed at my embarrassed blush. Wow, that guy just did a complete 180! Ten seconds ago I though he was gonna kill me. I laughed and looked back to the horse guy named Chiron.

"I hate break this up but you two should probably leave, I've got a lot to explain Izuku,"

I watched as Percy and Nico got up, said their goodbyes, and left. Then Chiron began...

So... that's a lot to take in.

Chiron had explained the Gods... and Goddess... and the wars ...and what the camp did...

He told me what I supposed to learn here at the camp; Myths, Greek (something he said comes naturally to all demigods), fighting, and honing down on my godly abilities. He cleared up all most everything, but I still had a million questions zooming through my head. At least it explained my ADHD and why I had always had so many problems with spelling in both Japanese and English.

Chiron had also told me that my father could claim me today, tomorrow, or .... never. I was a little bit uneasy at that part. I don't know if I would say that I love my father, heck I don't even know the guy, but my mother had only spoken highly of him so that had to mean something. Would he visit me now? Chiron had said that almost all of the deities had very very hands off parenting, but I couldn't stop that little part of me hoping that maybe my dad would be different.

I was thrown out of my thoughts by a loud horn coming from a different part of camp.

"Seems like it's dinner time! Come on you'll be staying and eating with the Hermes cabin till your father claims you."
