Percy's POV
As much as i want to pretend to be the bravest in the group I can,t help suggesting, " Guys how about we take arest before we go?"
Khinei looked at me her eyebrows raised at how stupid my question is so I quickly added, "We havn't slept fotr more than a day . So I think that if we're going to battle Medusa we need all the rest we could get."
Khinei's expression starts to soften and she sighed and shooke her head, "You're right Percy, we should take a rest... Sorry for dragging you both into this." she looked up and gave us a sad but somehow brave smile.
"We wanted to be here!" Jr said, well, more like he shouted it.
"Yeha!" i shouted along with him
which probably made us boyh sound like idiots but it did made Khinei laugh so it's worth it.
"Never thought Zeus' daughter could laugh." i teased her.
"Never thought Hades' son could be a clown." she teased back. I
"Okay, you always were the Master Teaser." i said as i head to Cerby's direction to calm him down. he seems to think his reflection is a menace to society for he keeps growling at it. "Good night MT."
She nods as she lays down the bed pulling the blamkets up.
She looked so little and vulnerable it reminded me that she and i are only 12 and a responsibility and a problem like this shouldn't be put on her shoulder. So i siad, " Don't worry Khinei, i'll always be here for you to help you and make you smile." I felt more comfident and sure of my promise.
Khinei's POV
* dream*
I find myself in a hall its walls lined with mirrors. but when i looked at one instead of seeing my reflection I saw a scene as if the mirror is a TV screen showing a movie woman's face.
In the 'movie' I saw a woman who is beautiful she is practically glowing but her face is frowning and when i looked down i saw that she is giving birth.
After a while of struggling the baby came out cover with golden blood the blood of the gods. I gasp not because of the golden blood which kinda looks like poop but because of the baby who looks exactly like me when i was first born!
I know it's foolish for that baby is surely a goddess for she's a daughter of one then i had a sudden thought what if the woman is...
"Mom?" i called out to the woman. She turned around to look at my direction she gasped as if surprise but when i saw how beautiful she really is I have no doubt she is a goddess. But if my father is Zeus, a god, and my mother is also a goddess (well if that woman really is my mother) i should've been a goddess too. Right?
BUt i don't feel like one and i remember i have no golden blood so i can't be a goddess. So this woman must not be my mother but why does her daughter look like me?
"Argh!" i said aloud, "This is so confusing! who am i really? Who are my parents? What am i?"
I looked back at the woman's face who is still gaping at me shock present in her beautiful face.
Then i heard the door open and in walk a god (i just guess for he looks and glows like one) who said with his booming voice, "My dear wife you shouldn't have gave birth to her! You're so foolish right now if we don't want our plans to be spoil we must kill her before she turns fourteen!"
One thought echoed in my mind: what does that mean?
Then i woke up to my surprise i still remember that dream. then i find myself staring at Percy who is saying it's time to go now to Medusa's Lair...
