Chapter 44 - Thalia Grace.
While Kurayami, Annabeth, and Shin walked through the camp to find Percy and Thalia they first stoped at Thalia's tree. When Annabeth saw the golden fleece on the tree she touched it with her hand. "So, how do you think sea weed brain did it." She asked without looking back. Kurayami had a thoughtful look on his face. "My guess is that he used his hero charm to do it."
"Pff." She nearly broke out laughing and walked back. "Really, hero charm?" Kurayami shrugged. "Who knows?" Kurayami and Shin began to walk away with her following. "Come one, seems he has not taken off the armband I gave him." They wen toward the Poseidon cabin and on the way Kurayami ran into a familiar face. Silena recognized him at a glance. She ran up and got him in big hug..
"Your back." Kurayami hugged her back and she looked down at Shin. She felt it was odd that a small dog like Shin could grow to be so big and ominous. If before he looked cute as a puppy he looked like a demon dog. She kneeled down and hugged Shin. "How is he so big already?" Annabeth sighed. "Hi Silena. How do you know fish eyes?" Kurayami fronwed. "Fish eyes?"
Annabeth smiled. "Your eyes look like a dead fish, although I guess they are very beutiful in a way as they are a nice dark violet." Silena nodded. "When the tree was poisouned he came here and he ran into me and my sisters. Back then Shin was just a small puppy the size of a chihuahu." Annabeth looked at Shin. "Now he just looks evil if you ignore the cross on his neck."
Shin being the show man raised his neck as he liked his cross. Kurayami deicded to ask. "I hear Percy got the fleece. How did he do it?" Silena explained. "As hard as it is to belive Percy, his cyclops brother, and a guy from the Ares cabin all went and managed to get it. Annabeth and Kurayami looked at each other weirldy. "Percy and a Ares kid did?" Silena nodded. "Hard to belive. If you are looking for Percy he is at stables. He got a pegasous."
Kurayami and Annabeth went to the stable and they saw Percy who got a new scar on the face with a black winged horse. When the horse felt Kurayami it started to speak to Percy. "BOSS. Boss, Big guy has yummy aura." Blackjack left Percy and walked up to Kurayami. Kurayami stroked the horse's face and asked. "What do you mean, Yummy aura?" Blackjack neighed. "Boss, boss he speaks horse!"
Percy ran over. "Kurayami, Annabeth. What are you doing here?" Kurayami deiced to make a joke. "Oh me, I just came to offer more demigods a place at Grigori. We are always looking for new blood and I hear a daughter of Zeus is around." Percy fronwed. "Come on man, you already took 20." Annabeth shrugged. "Grigori is better." Percy sighed.
"So what are you really here or?" Kurayami looked over. "Annabeth wanted to come her for a month as she heard Thalia is back. I am not realy here to take her." Blackjack just kept his face on Kurayami's back. "Yummy aura, I feel stronger." Percy sighed. "So are you going to leave too Blackjack." Blackjack moved back. "No, maybe." Percy had tick marks on his head.
Kurayami back away. "Sorry but, but I got a horse." Percy sighed. "I heard my father gave you a divine horse. Can i see him?" Kurayami summoned Blitz and he did not look divine at all. His mane was burining in black fire while every breath caused flames to exit his nose. His eyes were a deep violet and he was covered in dense mucle. He still looked beuitful, but he was the size of a Shire.
Percy gawked while Kurayami stroked his nose. "Cool right." Blitz looked at Percy in the eyes and spoke. "You are the son of Poseidon correct?" Percy shivered as the voice he heard was deep and dark. "Yeah, you?" Blitz raised his head and bowed. "I am Blitz mount to my lord. Sadly he has not ridden me." Percy had a good idea. "How about a race? Horse back."
Blitz looked at Kurayami. "Please lord." Kurayami nodded. "Sounds fine to me, although where is Thalia?" Percy explained. "She spends a lot of time at sword training field." Kurayami whiled it and a saddle and armor formed on Blitz and he jumped on his back. Blitx felt the happies he had ever been and rose on his back legs and dense black flames eruped from his nose. Percy shivered as Blitz was more of a war horse.
Percy jumped on Blackjack and Annabeth jumped on Blitz behind Kurayami. They rode through the camp looking for Thalia. Kurayami once again got attention as horse riding was a common thing, but who would ride a burning black demon horse. Annabeth jumped behind Kurayami and held on to his waist. Percy looked over and asked. "How are you not getting burned?"
Blitz looked over. "I only burn those I do not like." When they found Thalia she was locked in a spar with several demigods who froze in fear when they saw her shield. It was a replica of Ageis and had Medusa's face on it and seemed that when they saw it they froze. A lightning bolt hit her huge lance and she swung it hitting a large guy and short-circuiting. "Hey, Kurayami. How strong is her lightning comapred to yours?"
Kurayami thought about it. "Mine is stronger. She is an amature and can only use one while I can use many." Once Thalia won Annabeth jumped off Blitz and ran to Thalia and got her in a big hug. Thalia droped her shield and lance and hugged her back. Kurayami and Percy rode up to them and when Thalia saw Kurayami she pointed at him. "Hey, wasn't it you who helped me when I was a tree?"
Kurayami jumped on Blitz and nodded. "I just gave you a little more time. You must be Thalia Grace, daughter of Zues." She picked up her spear and shield and nodded. "I heard from Percy that you are a fallen angel, that true." Kurayami spread his wings and she saw 14 wings pop out from his back. She grinned. "How good are you?" He pointed up and she followed his hand and saw lightning clouds forming with storm clouds.
A big chuck of the camp was rumbling with lighting and she never had that much control. "Wow." He snaped his fingers and the storm clouds were sent away. "Just a ability I learned from my father." Thalia was intrested. "Who is your father?" He jumped back on Blitz and explained. "Baraqiel, the former lightning of god." Annabeth was forced by Kurayami to sighed a river styx pact to not say a thing which she did with out fail.
Thalia like most demigods was dyslexic, so she never read the bible. "Who?" Kurayami sighed. "A fallen angel who in the past was the enforcer of God's rage. I mean God as in the God of the bible." Thalia had guessed if Fallen Angels exist them then so did god. "How strong is God?" Kurayami smirked. "Strong enuph to get Zues to fear him." Annabeth waved goodbye as she wanted to stay with Thalia.
Both Percy and Kurayamu went to the chariot field as it could serve as a good race track. Percy looked over. "Can we fly?" Kurayami nodded. "Blitz can fly." Blitz began to paw on the ground causing it the ground to melt and as Chiron had heard they were going to race he went over. He looked at Blitz who was huge and looked like a mount worthy of a hero. "Alright, you two going to wager anything?"
Kurayami thought about it. "How about if you win I will give you a new sword." Percy did't have much to wager. Blackjack had a great idea. "Boss, Boss. If we win how about we get some of the yummy aura." Kurayami sighed. "You can't bottle it." Blackjack sighed. "How about you stay for a week for me to be around you." Percy looked at Kurayami who shrugged.
"Fine by me, but Bliz do not loose." Blitz took a deep breath and began to course with lightning. "How do you think I am my lord?" Kurayami grabbed the reigns and Percy felt he had no hope of winning. A few demigods came out to watch and just seeingt eh diffrence between Blitz and Blackjack a few assumed Blackjack would just fly ahead.
Chiron raised his hand. "On your marks." Blitz muscles got tentse while Blackjack spread his wings. "Get set." Kurayami and Percy got ready and Chiron lowered his hand. "GO." Both horses took to the air and while Blackjack flew in the air Blitz just ran in the air. Thalia looked up as both horses flew and whistled. "You would't think that huge horse could fly."
Annabeth nodded. "I thought Blitz would just flop to the ground." As Blitz ran the air burned and his mane and breath grew hotter and Percy was just left behind as Blitz was just that fast. He landed and began to run on the ground and with his every run the ground left burning hoof prints and Percy accepted his loss as Blitz made it to the end. Blackjack sighed. "My yummy aura." Percy consoled him. "Hey, cheer up."
Blitz took a deep breath happy. "My lord, my I ask you ride me into battle if you can?" Kurayami got off and nodded. "If is the right kind then yes. However you know that not all battles can be fought on horse back." Blitz agrred. "Wait, what if you go balanca breaker while mounted?" Kurayami was intrested. "Hey, we can try it back home. Let's see what happened."
Percy walked up to him and patted him on the back. "I lost as expected. Did you hear that most peaple bet on me as they did't think Blitz could fly. I heard Mr. D bet a lot of Drachma on you as he suspected that Blitz could fly." Kurayami shurgged. "Well today was fun, but I should go back." He walked up to Annabeth who was with Thalia. "Hey you know the rules?"
She nodded. "Stay for a month or less and go back." He nodded. Thalia nuged her. "Go back?" Anabeth explained how she was actually a member of Grigori and why she came back was just because she heard Thalia was back. Thali frowned. "Why did you leave?" Annabeth showed her neckless. "I have here here for 6 years staright and never once got a quest. I got a offer and I have gone on adveturues and I am stronger than ever."
Thalia nodded. "Well that is fine." Kurayami wayved good bye. "I should go." Kurayami opened a teleport circle under him and went back to his house. When he appeared outside it he scared the daylights out of Shigune and Saw who were talking. They shrieked and ran away leaving Poh and Leo behind. He looked at Poh fronwed. "Am I scary?"
The little creature shook his head and he just picked him up while pettung Leo. When Shigune and Sae looked back they just saw Kurayami they frowned and went over. Sae complained. "You trying to kill me? I probibly just lost 20 years off my life." Shigune nodded. "Be more carful where you teleport. What if your horse landed on me?"
He shrugged whil Blitz shrunk to look like a small minihorse. He brought out his other pets and went to go find the girls. He found them in the living roon all with happy looks and new clothes. When they all saw him and they tackled him with hugs. Raynare looked pretty as she had a ponytail and had her nails painted violet. She was wearing a pretty skirt and a new blouse.
He looked them over and saw they all had new hair styles, clothes and painted nails. Lavinia was wearing a blue sundress and she saw him looking. "Who looks better?" He froze and all his pets ran away leaving him defenseless. He had to look them all over and for the next 4 hours he was stuck with the girls talking about their day and yet he did not mind.
