For Us Demigods

Crime Fighting and Relationships

Third Person's POV

"Mr. Riordan?" George asked. "Is it true you were at the Mall? Last Saturday?"

"Yes. I was at the mall." Mr. Riordan answered.

"Then can you tell us about it? About them?" Fred asked.

First of all. No. George and Fred are not twins. They are, however, best friends. They also look alike, and they act alike. People call them the Weasley Twins for fun, and they didn't mind. They like it actually. Brothers from another mother they said. And they both are part of the swimming team.

"Are we still talking about this?" Percy groaned in a low voice to Annabeth, who gripped his hand in reassurance.

"Wake me up when they're done." Luke mumbled to Thalia as he crossed his arms and rested his head on the table. Thalia chuckled as she stroked Luke's head and planted a kiss on his head.

"The police said that three of them showed up in front of them with five bombs." Dean said.

"Why? Why would they be carrying bombs?" Charlotte asked.

It has been two days. Two days since the Mall Highjacking. And the entity City of San Fransisco will not shut up about it. From Saturday night, to all of Sunday, and even today, Monday morning, everyone seemed to only talk about the cloaked heroes.

"There were threats. Bombs underneath the mall." Mr. Riordan said, as he sat on the edge on his desk. "If I were to take a guess. I think they were dismantling the bombs and taking it to the police."

"How many of them were there?" George asked.

"Well. The first to arrive were seven. But if I'm not mistaken, there were another three." Mr. Riordan said.

"Well I was late." Annabeth said, and Percy chuckled.

"Is it true they can fly?" Fred asked.

"They can do more than fly." Mr. Riordan said. "They all had different powers I suppose."

"Can you clarify?" Nancy asked.

"Well. One of them can turn into different animals. He turned into a lion. And a bear." Mr. Riordan said.

"That's so cool." Everyone else mumbled.

"I believe, two of them seemed to be able to control lightning. Another two controlled the water. The floor was flooding, and thunders struck everywhere." Mr. Riordan said.

"So that's why it was raining." Kenny mumbled.

"I believe, one of the two Water Controls were able to freeze the water. He was the leader I suppose. By the name Alpha." Mr. Riordan said. Jason turned and gave Percy an accusing look. "I think he was the one who made a tiny earthquake."

Piper laughed, and mouthed, 'That's so you, Fish Face.'. Percy pouted and mouthed back, 'Shut up Beauty Queen.'.

"One of them were able to talk the terrorist into putting their gun down." Mr. Riordan said. "She had a very persuasive voice. I wanted to put my gun down. Even if I don't have one."

"Wait. She?!" The class asked.

"Yes. I believe at least half of them are girls." Mr. Riordan said, looking at the dumbfounded face of the jaw dropped students.

"Half?" They all asked and Mr. Riordan nodded.

"One of them had the speed of lightning." Luke's head shot up at this. "Another one seemed to be able to teleport in between shadows."

"Shadows?" Charlotte asked.

"Yes." Mr. Riordan said. "They have the tendency to switch language though. That's what I find odd. Many tongues."
