I walked back to Olympus with a grin. I took a sip of my coffee and once again showed off my tattoos. I wore shorts this time to show off my hells fighter tattoo. I walked the path to the throne room and I couldn't help but smile widely when I walked in.
"You seen in an awfully good mood when there is a chance your going to die today." Zeus scoffed.
"Why are you so happy?" Aphrodite asked.
"I got a girlfriend!" I grinned. I'm so happy Nancy said yes to me. We went on a date last week, and one this week, and I asked her to be my girlfriend.
"You mean to tell me you actually did it? You actually asked her out?" Aphrodite asked and I grinned.
"Yeah, I'm so glad she said yes, I don't know what I would've done if she said no." I sighed and put a hand over my heart and sighed.
"You already moved on?" Annabeth glared at me so hard I thought her eyes would pop out.
"Yeah. Grover won't be happy when he finds out who it is though. It's actually quite funny. But yeah, I moved on." I shrugged and she shouted and suddenly I was hit with something, a freaking glass plate. Blood ran down my chest and I did my call for my companions. Both were up here in less than a minute.
"How you two get to me will always freak me out, but Raze, threaten Annabeth, Hercules, please heal the wound." I said.
"They won't understand you." Annabeth said. Raze did some sort of laugh and so did Hercules.
"They're laughing at you right now." I laughed. Hercules healed my chest and Raze slowly walked to Annabeth and snarled, drool dripping from her teeth. Annabeth backed away and brought out her weapon. I could tell that made Raze mad. She was about to leap.
"Raze, no killing. I thought we talked about this." I laughed and she bowed her head, allowing me to pet her. She stomped her hoof twice, apologizing. I taught her some words doing that. Same with Hercules. "You are forgiven. Now go be free, no killing any more people this time." I said looking at Hercules who tapped his feet.
"Old habits my a**." I laughed and they laughed to. "Now go, I'll tell you if there is a new friend." I said and they ran away, off Olympus. "They really are smart. Quick learners." I said. Annabeth never looked so shocked in her life.
"Well, that was interesting." Demeter said, eating cereal. I chuckled to myself at her reaction. I was flashed away. I was in the woods once again, but I wasn't myself. I looked down at myself and all I saw was the brown fur of a rabbit. I gulped. I was going to be hunted for lunch. I saw an arrow flying right at me. I hopped away in time.
"This will be your last trial hero, Zeus threatened to kill my hunters if you didn't die now, I'm so sorry." I heard Artemis say before more arrows were shot at me. I hopped away as fast as I could. I avoided getting shot with arrows until I couldn't hop anymore. I leaped into the water. I was suddenly, and luckily transported before I drowned.
I looked at myself and I was in my normal body. I stood in front of at least two hundred people facing me, ready to attack. No one was on my side. I was in a deserted area where the ground was dry, all dirt. I saw people light arrows on fire, and I was suddenly glad I brought my cloak and extra clothes. I put on my muscle shirt and grabbed my sword. I was mad. I found a bow and arrow right beside me and I picked them up. I notched an arrow, secretly thanking tv for teaching me the stupidest but most useful stuff ever. I aimed and shot, actually hitting someone. I smirked and notched two arrows and shot. By now they were all running to me, so I worked fast and shot as many arrows and I could until I ran out of arrows. I grabbed my sword and defended myself. I wasn't aiming to kill, I was aiming to defend.
None of this was real, none of these people are actually dying, suddenly everything stopped and froze. A man stood in front of me, is was Zeus.
"This is real. You were sent to the past. You really are killing them. Killing innocent people." Zeus said, before flashing away. I shouted in outrage and everyone continued fighting, trying to kill me. I shook my head constantly. I can't kill these people, I can't. I ran away. I wasn't willing to kill, but I was willing to run. I stopped suddenly. A stupid idea came to my mind.
"Stop! The gods want me alive!" I shouted and they stopped chasing after me, lowering their weapons. A man with rough skin and a deep frown took off his helmet.
"And why would the mighty Zeus want to talk to you?" He snorted. I thought of an excuse as quickly as I could.
"I'm a son of his brother, the great Poseidon." I said. I hated saying it, but if it saves me, than I'm fine with it. I have to prove to Zeus that I am innocent. I think this is one of the last trials.
"Poseidon never has kids with mortals." Another man trotted up on his horse.
"I-I can prove it. I can talk to horses. Poseidon is the creator of horses, so he can speak to them, so can I." I said raising my hands. The guy got off his horse and the horse trotted up to me.
"Why you in the past future son of Poseidon?" It asked, but it was only a small neigh.
"That's a little harder to explain. Zeus will tell you eventually, I think." I told the horse.
"My name is Halifax, weird name but yeah." The horse said with laugher. I laughed as well.
"Well, Halifax, I guess these people know I can understand you. They know I'm a Poseidon spawn." I said the words so bitterly that I actually tasted something bitter.
"What happened in the future boss?" Halifax asked and hit me with his nose.
"Don't call me boss! And Zeus might explain why he wants me dead. See ya later." I said and the horse trotted back to its owner.
"So you said some random crap to him, doesn't mean you are a Poseidon child." The guy said. Halifax hit him and I laughed at the unkind words Halifax said to him.
"Halifax! Language!" I demanded and laughed. He neighed in laughter as well. "Believe me now? I can also breathe underwater." I said.
"Fine. Get on your way before we change our minds." The leader said. I ran away, and I was flashed back to Olympus.
