The Child Of Time

chapter 5

3rd person/Camp Half-Blood-

"Chiron?" Connor and Travis Stoll approached the centaur. "When is the assassin coming?" They asked, excited.

"First of all," Chiron started. "I don't know when he's coming, but when he does-don't call him that."

"Sure, sure." the twins said together. "When is this meeting beginning?" Connor asked.

"All the counselors should show up sometime." Chiron said. Finallly, the door opened and all the counselors walked in.

"Sorry we're late, Chiron." Annabeth excused.

"It's fine, we have more important matters to discuss." Chiron said.

"The assassin?" Clarisse guessed.

"His name is Percy and all the gods asked us to do, was to find out more about him." Chiron stated.

"I wasn't even at the meeting-what makes this guy so scary?" Clarisse asked.

"He's freakin' creepy!" The Stolls shouted.

"It's like he looks right through your soul, and I would know," Annabeth stated. "He knew everything about me-and probably more."

"So is he a demigod or what?" Michael Yew asked.

"If he is, we don't know his godly parent." Annabeth said.

"So all you know is his name, creepy powers, and that he's an assassin?" Clarisse summed up.

"Wait," Grover looked pensive. "Who else has that creepy power?"

"Impossible," Chiron denied. "He wouldn't be able to cross the border and why would Kronos want to be an ally in a war against him?"

"Greek myths trace all the way back to children of the titans?" Annabeth suggested.

"There are still some,but we know of them." Chiron said.

Thunder shook the big house and seas crashed. "Zeus is awfully angry." Luke noted.

"I think this meeting is over, please don't mention this to your siblings." Chiron opened the door.

Annabeth walked out first and screamed to the top of her lungs.

3rd Person/Percy-

"Scream a little louder Annabeth Chase, I don't think all of New York heard you." Percy smiled.(I luv saying that!)

"What is it?" Clarisse pushed through.

"You're here." Annabeth's voice quivered.

"I am your ally, after all." Percy rolled his eyes but she couldn't see it because he wore his armor.

"Ah, Percy." Chiron gulped. "I am Chiron, welcome to camp Half-Blood."

"Glad to be here." Percy said. After a long awkward moment, Chiron walked Percy and the demigods out on the porch where Dionysus and Grover were playing pinocle.

"Percy this is Mr.D, Mr.D this is Percy." Chiron said flatly, having no last name to present.

"The new ally, I've heard much about you." The wine god turned around.

"Oh, really?" Percy's eyes sparked.

Dionysus sighed heavily, "Oh, I suppose I must say it. Welcome to Camp Half-Blood. There. Now, don't expect me to be glad to see you."

"Most people aren't." Percy hinted.

"Troublesome," Mr.D huffed, "Good ally."

"Percy," Chiron dismissed the campers. "I assume you already know about the Greek gods and their children?"
