7 Fear Chp 6

Percy Pov

It's official, I have no idea how to fight.

I am currently in my room lifting dumbbells at my home base, but I can tell that it's not really going to do much. As it's only been a few days since we left for Texas to pick up as many guns as we could. Even if they don't affect monsters as much but they would be best saved for other worlds.

Especially for my mom

I did take my time to reach it as I don't want to run that much again

Going back to the issue of not knowing how to fight there is one way to learn that might be 'save' for me

Going to a camp for demigods

But, going to Camp Half-Blood is a problem. What I have in mind is sure to piss the gods off even more, thankfully, giving them a headache as well.

Going to Camp Jupiter seems like a much better option as well as receiving much more experience in many different fields. Medicine, building, engineering, and even a much of stuff more in a much safer environment.

I am not a genius nor do I have perfect memory

yet

But, staying in Camp Jupiter also comes with a few issues. Such as the fact that I don't really know Latin as my brain is hotwired for ancient greek. Sure, I learned some phrases in my Latin class with Chiron. But, he made sure to use their greek names as much as he could. Not to mention my new rebellious nature is enhanced by being a Sayian.

I sigh and get out of my room to see my mom in our new living room.

"Mom, we need to talk, again," I told her as she smiled at me but lost it when she saw the look on my face

"Well, you know how you told me, that dad told you that Camp Half-Blood is the safest place for me. Well, he didn't mention how there are actually two camps in total," I told her to which she looked in shock

She sighed heavily

"Let me guess the Roman gods are real too," She said and this time I was surprised

"Yes, how did you know?" I asked surprised

"When you were younger, around two years old we were attacked by something which I later learned the name of was a Monoceros. A monster from Roman mythology afterward I had thoughts about other types of gods before I found Gabe. Marrying him saved both of our lives, Percy," She said as I stared at her knowing just how much this woman loved her son, or rather me

"Mom, thank you," I said to her while we hugged we each other.

We stayed like that for a few minutes before we separated

"Percy, if this is a Roman camp they will try to kill you won't they?" She asked me

"Yes, and if I go to the greek camp they are also likely to kill me," I told her to which she looked sad

"Percy, you don't know that..." She began before I interrupted her

"Mom, Zeus killed all of the children of Hades and Poseidon even the ones who were older than sixteen, and he used the prophecy as an excuse. He is a hypocrite and he already knows about me, the only reason he hasn't done anything to me yet is due to his fear of the fates. So now he is using the fact that someone stole his lightning bolt and the deadline as another excuse. Completely ignoring he broke the oath two times once in his greek and other in his roman form," I told her

"Going to the greek camp may be good If I want to get the suspicion out of the way and have an early confrontation with the gods. Going to Camp Jupiter may be better as I can hide there for a bit before the gods find out," I said before my mom gave her input

"I think going to Camp Half-Blood may be better as getting rid of Zeus's attention off you is the best option, for now. If we play our cards right we may be able to reveal the fact that Ares betrayed them. The issue would come in the fact that Zeus would possibly keep the Helm of Darkness from Hades and he may have the support of most Olympians due to their dislike of him. If what you said is that gods can't take another's symbol of power they may use the loophole that they found it and since it was lost they may try to play it off as a sort of finder's, keeper's sort of thing," She said while I looked at her glad that I brought her with me

"Ok, so going to the greek camp and revealing the fact that Ares was controlled which he allowed as he is a maniac for war. Also, he has two symbols of power that don't belong to him. The problem will be telling Hades that his helm is on Olympus as he isn't allowed until the winter solstice," I said as we began to plan and in a few hours we decided that we would be going to the greek camp to get this all out of the way

As I go back into my room I lay on my new bed while groaning.

I laughed a bit low

"I am scared," I said to myself as I stop laughing a bit

Even though it's been a few months since I arrived the fear is still there. It's growing every day as well. I am in a completely alien world alone even if I make new bonds, I will always remember my first family and my friends. The pain of not being able to see them is enough to make me want to cry. If I hadn't merged with Percy and then taken in the template for Taima who belongs to a species that sees fear as a weakness.

I would be crying about them every day if not for those two facts.

But, I am still afraid
