Demigods?
When we got to the museum we paid five dollars each and went inside. It was bigger than I thought it was. I looked to Mikleo to see him smiling at his phone.
“So, is Sorey going to be my future brother-in-law?” I asked and he stopped and blushed.
“W-what, no that’s not-” he shuddered and I laughed.
“Easy Mikleo, I’m just kidding” I said as he looked down “But in all seriousness, you seemed to really like Sorey” I said and he smiled.
“He’s really kind and sweet Percy,” he said before frowning and looked down “But I doubt he would want me as a mate” he said and I rolled,
“Oh, come one Mikleo,” I said and he looked back at me “Sorey would be crazy not to, I mean come on he totally has a crush on you” I said as he blushed again.
“W-what no he doesn’t!” Mikleo said and I laughed again.
“Oh, please he complemented you and talked with you the entire time” I said and he just blushed harder.
“Oh…Shut up Percy” he said as he stomped off towards the Greek section and I ran after him.
When we got there, we started translating the language and tried figure out how things where what was happening in the pictures and trying to figure out what things happened. There was a point where we made it to the center and that’s when Mikleo started complaining.
“This isn’t even Greek, it’s more like a different continent!” he said and I looked closer, one was a pair of old gloves with a symbol of prophecy on it. I don’t exactly know which one but I knew it meant prophecy. The other one was an old hair pin with a blue bow on it. It might not have been Greek but it was interesting.
“Where do you think they’re from?” I asked and he shrugged.
“I don’t know but I know it doesn’t belong here” he said and I nodded.
“Neither should you” a voice said and we looked around until we turned to see a lady with brown hair and a long red dress walk in.
“Um I thought this was opened to the public?” I asked and she rolled her eyes,
“I wasn’t talking about this stupid museum or you,” she said and I glared “I was talking about Mikleo” she said and we were shocked.
“How do you know my name?” he asked and she rolled her eyes.
“Because we meet before back when he was a seraph and the sub lord to the Shepard” she said and I looked at him and he was shocked.
“I was a what?” he asked and I looked back at the woman,
“Who are you exactly?” I asked and she smirked.
“My name is Carline Line and I’m going to be the future Missis Shepard” she said and I had no clue if she was kidding or crazy.
“Um aren’t your kind of old for a twelve-year-old boy” I said and she glared at me.
“I’ll show you old” she said and out of know where came sword and our eyes widened,
“How on earth did she get that past security?” Mikleo asked and I shrugged.
“Now you my dear boy have two option,” she said walking towards us “You can walk away and let me kill Mikleo or you both can die together” she said and I looked down,
“Percy, you should go,” He said and I looked at him “Tell mom I’m thankful for everything she’s done and I love her, and if you see Sorey make sure he never marries this werido” he said and he came forward.
“Oh, how noble just like old time,” she said and raised her arm “Good bye Mikleo at least this time I know you’ll be dead” she said and I couldn’t believe this.
My brother was willing to die just because this werido wanted him dead, I mean come on we don’t even know if she’s even sane. I stepped in front of him and she looked confused,
“Percy what are you doing?” Mikleo asked and I turned to him.
“I’m not going to let you die because this weirdo says so,” I told him “For all you know she could be lying!” he said and he looked down.
“Whatever killing two is just as fun” she said and before we know she was about to stab us but then a light engulfed us. Then I heard a clamp like medal against medal and when I opened my eyes I saw I was holding her sword,
“What?!” she demanded as she pulled back.
“Percy, how did you-?” he asked and I looked down and saw I was wearing light blue boots, and a white pants and a white long tailed coat with blue, light blue and teal designs I was wearing gantlets that looked like fingerless gloves and I even say the tips of my hair had turned blue.
“What in the world?” I asked and turned to Mikleo and I froze.
“What?” he asked as I pointed at his outfit and he looked down.
I don’t think he realized he was holding a staff until I pointed it out, his staff was made from some kind of bronze with a big blue crystal on top. His outfit was different he was wearing black shoes and white pants with gold and black designs on both sides of his hips it also had blue designs on the bottom of his pants. As for his shirt it was fancy, it was a blue color with white, gold and black designs he also had to caps behind him.
Also, his glasses where gone.
“This is imposable why would they activate now!” Carline said and before anyone answered another woman’s voice came up.
“Because the two chosen weren’t together” we looked up to see a woman with blue hair and green eyes, she was wearing boots that looked like the day and night sky, blue jeans and a shirt with a big star on it.
“Lilly, I should have known you were behind this!” Carline said and Lilly just smiled.
“But of course, what you did to Mikleo and Sorey wasn’t ok,” she said and Mikleo gasped “I wasn’t able to save Sorey from you but I’m glad I was able to at least save Mikleo” she said and Carline just growled.
Then Lilly turned to us.
“I do hope you two know how to fight” she said and we were confused until Carline spoke.
“ENOUGH OF THIS!” she said and she tried to attack us and we fought back.
Surprisingly, Mikleo looked like he’s been practicing for years because he was able to fight. As for me I relied on my reflexes and my gut to get me throw this fight. At the end of it all three of us where painting and looking at each other.
“Amazing so you really can fight better when you’re not distracted,” she said and I knew she was talking to Mikleo “But it’s time to end this” she said and raised a gun up,
“This was!” I turned and saw Lilly pointing to a space between two pillars and I was confused but I didn’t have much choice so I grabbed Mikleo and ran. Carline started shooting at us until I made it between the two Pillars and everything went white.
The next time I opened my eyes we were in some kind of room with a window. I looked out to see water, my eyes widen as I saw we were on a ship, I looked to see Mikleo laying on the other bed and I ran and shock him.
“Mikleo! Mikleo wake up!” I said and he started steering.
“Percy…” he said as he sat up and looked at me “Where are we?” he asked.
“On a ship” I said and he looked at me.
“I’m asking a serious question” he said and I nodded.
“and I’m giving a serious answer” I said as he sat up and looked outside the window with wide eyes.
“What in Hades” he said and I shrugged.
“We’re heading the Bermuda triangle or as Demigods like to say it the Sea of Monsters” we turned to see Lilly.
“It’s you the one from the museum” I said and she nodded.
“Ok can you please explain to us what’s going on, and what’s with these outfits and weapons” Mikleo said and she smiled.
“Those are the prophecy gantlets and the Lunar staff,” she said, “The gantlets allow the wear to see posable outcomes of the future the same goes with the staff” she said and I was confused.
“But I always thought that in Greek mythology that the Sun represented prophecy” I asked and she nodded.
“Normally, yes it does but sometimes the moon can see clearer then the sun” she said and I looked down.
“You said earlier that they never activate before, why” Mikleo asked.
“Because two siblings that are in sync with each other are the only ones who can activate it” she said and this time Mikleo looked down.
“Look I hate saying this on so many levels but Mikleo and I, we’re not really siblings” I said and Mikleo nodded.
“You both have the same father, even If that was the fates doing, you two are brothers even if it’s not really by blood but you are brothers” she said and we smiled at each other.
“Well can’t really argue with that” I said and he laughed but nodded. Then he went serious and looked at Lilly,
“Lilly what did Carline mean when she was talking about me” he asked and she looked down.
“I’m sorry Mikleo but you must find the answers you seek by yourself” she said and Mikleo looked down.
“Not completely by yourself where you go I go we promised each other years ago” I said and Mikleo smiled and nodded.
“Yeah” he said and Lilly nodded.
“Now you two should find the prisoners and get out of here” she said and we looked at her.
“Prisoners?” we asked and she nodded,
“Yep in the brig,” she said and was about to leave but then turned to us again “Oh yeah two things” she said and we looked at her.
“One, this cruise ship is full of monsters so be careful,” she said and our eyes widen.
“Like monster, monsters or people who are horrible?” I asked and she smiled,
“Greek monsters” she said and ours eyes widened again “anyway, and two your weapons have another form, for you Mikleo it was a bow form and don’t worry about the arrows they just show up oh, it also can change its shape from an ax to a spear and so on” she said and Mikleo looked at his staff.
“And you Percy, you have a gun form and just as Mikleo’s Bow your guns bullets will just appear when you need it, as well as a sword” she said and I looked down at my gloves “Good Luck you two I’ll be seeing you two sooner or later” she said as she disappeared.
Well today’s been a weird day but we do know one thing were demigods on a mission and there was someone from Mikleo’s past trying to kill him and we have to know why.
