THALIA GRACE

THIS IS WEIRD. Malcolm from Athena Cabin said they might be the ones from the Prophecy the Oracle just sprouted.

Well, it does make sense. They are nine, and one looks around 16, so she may be a huntress. As Thalia looked more closely she realised that the older girl's structure, hair, height, stance and all looked just like.... her?

But Thalia wouldn't join the hunters. Not now. Not ever.

As Zoë, Phoebe, Percy -the group Thalia didn't wanna be a part of at all- followed behind her, she thought that they might just be new demigods who crossed the border. Then she diminished that thought. Why? Because the youngest one was literally a baby. Plus, 10 Demigods arriving at once? Pffft.

Anyways, we were really quiet. That was until Chiron here, decided to step on a twig. The four of us turned to him in alarm. He just looked around sheepishly. We all shook our heads and looked forward again.

The oldest girl must've noticed the noise. She turned around and Thalia stopped in her tracks. She looked exactly like her. The same electric blue eyes, choppy black hair, pale face, smudged eyeliner, dark lipstick, just everything. There was one thing different, that girl had the same tiara type thing Zoë wore. The symbol of lieutenant of Artemis. The lieutenant clicked a bracelet on her wrist and a shield emerged from it. It wasn't just any shield. It was Thalia's! It was Aegis.

She saw us and visibly relaxed and turned her shield back to the bracelet. Thalia looked around and saw the others in same confusion as her. They all put their shit together and stood in battle stance. "The heck?" Thalia muttered, voicing what everyone was thinking.

Then the girl made a peace symbol with her hands, put down her weapons and kicked them out of reach. We all looked at Chiron who nodded. Uncertainly, Percy and Thalia made the peace symbol from their hands simultaneously. This wasn't planned. Why did he have to do what she did?! Thalia glared at Percy, who glared back. They both let out a sharp breath and looked away from each other. Gods! Percy is sooooo fucking annoying!! Oh well, it is what it is.

We didn't drop our weapons but moved forward, still ready to kick some ass. As we moved, four more people -two boys and two girls- joined her. They all looked about the same age. One of them was a scrawny hispanic guy with a tool belt. Didn't look like much of a threat. (Guysss! I love Leo. This is just Thalia's pov.) One of the girls, having caramel hair looked delicate but something told Thalia not to mess with her. The other two. They looked like a threat. One was a bluff blonde guy. Not gonna lie, he looked like Superman, but blonde. The other girl had dark hair and a Cherokee complexion. She looked beautiful, but the dagger on her side and her built screamed, "mess with me and you'll be in Tartarus."

We all stood taller and stiffer now. Five young Demigods, nine children, one huntress, an ex-sorceress. Those lines were constantly repeating in her head. The rest was okay, but these were four demigods. The prophecy said five. Well, it's not a prophecy until it makes your brain go nuts. Oh well, as those thoughts clouded Thalia's head, she didn't even realise that they'd reached the group.

It was safe to say Thalia was deep in her thoughts. She came back to reality by Percy poking her. She almost slit Percy's throat. Thank gods Percy had his Riptide and quickly blocked off Thalia's attack. As much as she hated him, she didn't want Percy dead. At least not yet. "What?" Thalia asked, annoyed. "Look in front of you." He answered shortly.

Thalia did as told. She looked forward to see that they were literally two feet away from the group. "We're almost there." Percy voiced behind her. Thalia rolled her eyes. "I can see that, you-" she was going to utter some, let's just say, unfriendly profanities but was interrupted. "Hello!" Chiron boomed. Yes. Chiron boomed.


"Hi!" The girl said. "I am Thalia. Well you know me, of course." She said in a matter of factly tone.

What the fuck?
