Chapter 38

THANK You SO MUCH FOR 300 followers and almost 50k reads!!!

(Also I watched Zootopia today and it was soooooooo cute!!! Nick and Judy are OTP!!!)

I got back to the stands, my heart pumping, still in an adrenaline rush.

Piper was the first one to see me, pushing through the crowd and hugging me.

"Good job girl!"

"Thanks." I said slightly out of breath. She squeezed people when she hugged.

Next was Percy, looking at me with a crooked smile.

"Congrats."

"Thanks." I smiled at him.

Suddenly his eyebrows drew together, making him look concerned.

"Are you hurt?"

I smiled, then shook my head .

"No just a little bruised. I'll be fine though."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes I'm sure." I chuckled a little.

I was glad I had people looking out for me.

"Okay good. Tell me if you need anything."

"Thanks!"

The rest of the knife and bow and arrow matches went on until the score board read:

Goode: 15
Titans: 14
Giants: 18
Romans: 16

We weren't last, but we weren't first either.

We had to get more wins.

Percy stood up in his armor, sword in hand.

"Well now it's my turn."

"Go get em Seaweed Brain."

"Goode luck!" Hazel said sweetly.

"Goode luck!" Frank patted Percy on the back.

"Try not to get killed." Reyna said.

A lot of other people wished him Goode luck too, because he was one of the best fighters we had.

Finally Percy turned to me again.

"Shouldn't I get a kiss for more good luck?" He said cheekily.

"I think you have enough already." I teased him.

He pouted.

I laughed "Okay, I'll see how it goes. Just come back a winner."

"Will do."

Then he turned his back and went down.

He was the first one down, and at the other end was supposed to be a person from Jupiter high.

"Okay! Now this is the beginning match for the sword fighting section!"

"Percy Jackson versus...

Hide Hales!"

A girl came out of the other side.

She was fierce and pretty looking.

I heard some wolf whistles.

Her hair was long and flowing black down her back like a dark river.

Her eyes were blue chips of ice, unbreakable.

She brandished her sword in front of her and bared her wolf-like teeth.

I could tell she had experience.

"3...
2...
1...
Fight!"

They stayed where they were, swords held in attacking positions, sizing each other up.

Suddenly she charged forward, graceful as a gazelle but fast as a cheetah.

Percy leaped back and to the side.

She was anticipating this, and slashed the side that he dodged to.

Fortunately he dodged just in time.

She kept him on the defensive, attacking continuously and making him defend.

I knew that could get tiring and that she would tire out, but she kept going, fierce as ever.

Then she stumbled a bit, and Percy saw a chance.

He jumped forward and put the sword to her throat.

Everyone from Goode cheered at this, myself the loudest cheerer.

She looked like she was about to surrender, but in a flash she disarmed him.

Apparently that stumble was just a trick.

Cornered, Percy suddenly pushed her back and ran for his sword.

She fell on her butt, and couldn't block his way in time.

He grabbed his sword, and started going on the offensive.

She fought back as fierce as ever, recovered from the push.

Every time their swords met it created a shower of sparks.

Slash.
Block.
Stab.
Parry.
Dodge.

They were getting tired, but were still going.

It would have to end soon.

In a surprise move, she backflipped, hitting Percy in the chest at the same time.

He stumbled back but miraculously didn't fall.

She ran towards him again, but this time when she reached him, he dodged her, and got behind her, putting the knife against her throat.

I saw him mouth the word
"Surrender?"

Her expression was wild and seething mad but she said yes.

Releasing her, Percy raised up his sword in victory while we all cheered. He had won!

He walked back up to the stands, many people patting him on the back.

"So do I get a kiss now?" He said when he reached me.

"Sure." I smiled at him and right then and there I kissed him straight on the lips.

I vaguely heard the sounds of oohs reach my ears, but barely because I was melting.

When we released, I saw Mr. Bruner looking at us disapprovingly, yet I saw a small smile on his lips.

"That was a good kiss."

"Aren't you glad you won?"

"Totally."

We sat held hands while the next matches flew past.

The score was now:

Goode: 20
Titans:19
Giants: 22
Romans:19

We were now second place,
but barely.

The next two matches we won, making us tied.

Leo stood up then.

It was his time to fight.

"Watch me go win this." He said with a cocky smile.

"I'll believe it when I see it."

"Good luck."

"Don't mess this up."

Leo looked offended.

"You guys really don't have much faith in me do you? Well I'll prove you wrong but winning this match. At the end, I'll expect a full handwritten apology from each of you."

"Fine."

Leo went down the steps grinning.

He held his sword in front of him.

I'd never actually seen him swordfight before, so I didn't know if he was good.

"This match is against Leo Valdez from Goode High School andddd...

Calypso Moonlace from Titan High School."

Leo's smile got wiped right off his face and his face turned white.

I wondered what was wrong, when next to me Percy slackened his grip on my hand.

"Percy?"

He was just looking shocked down at the girl in the arena.

I turned to look at her.

She was very pretty, caramel hair tucked into a braid. Almond shaped eyes also emitting shock, like Leo's were.

"Percy? Do you know her?"

"I- yes. I know her."

"Who is she then?"

He turned to look into my eyes, a storm brewing in them.

"My ex-girlfriend."

AN

Dramaaa!

Again, thank you guys so much. It's really amazing.

I also finished Library of Souls.

It was sooooo good, but now I'm sad the series is over :(

My favorite chapter was the last one :)

Also Jacob is just awesome.

To continue more on the
Zootopia movie, I thought it was really cute and funny and Nick and Judy were just goals honestly.

Yours in demigodishness, and all that.
Peace out!
