The thirteenth Olympian

The lives of twins

12 years later
Chris's POV
I was currently sitting in class watching the clock. Only five more minutes until summer! Dammit, time moves slow.
"Chris!" Ms. Johnson called.
I looked at my teacher with a bored expression. "Yes?"
Ms. Johnson glared at me. "It may be five minutes until your vacation, but that does not give you the right to not pay attention."
I groaned as my head hit the desk with a THUNK. The class spread with giggles, as I heard Ms. Johnson's breathing get louder with anger. "You should really blow your nose Ms. Johnson. I can hear your breathing from all the way back here." This time the whole class began to howl in laughter.
"Mr. Jones, you will treat me with re-"she was cut off by the school bell ringing.
The whole class burst out of the classroom, as Ms. Johnson attempted to get everyone to calm down.
Once I exited the class, I waited for Chloris at the school entrance.
"Chris!" I heard a familiar voice say.
I turned around to be greeted by my father. "Hello father."
He gave me a wide smile, showing off his pearly white teeth. He was about to say something, until interrupted by my annoying teacher. "Are you Chris's father?"
Dad looked at the woman with a raised eyebrow. "Yes. Who are you?"
"I am Ms. Johnson, Chris's teacher. I would like to talk to you about your son's behavior."
Dad looked at me and winked. "Why don't you get your sister son. We'll talk about your, behavior."
I smiled and walked towards the door. I saw that Chloris was walking out the door. "Sup sis. Dad's here to pick us up."
I am currently around 5' while my sister is about 4'10.
She looked at me and smiled. She was about to say something before Oscar (the school douchebag) put an arm around her shoulders. "Hey baby. Why don't we go to my place tonight?"
Chloris snorted and pushed his arm away. "Sorry 'baby.' I got other plans." She said with air quotations when she said baby.
Oscar smiled flirtatiously at my sister. "What could be better than spending the night with me?"
She opened her mouth to say something, but was interrupted by a deep voice. "Please, my daughter would rather eat horse shit than spend the night with you."
I burst out laughing as my sister hugged our father. "Hi daddy."
Dad glared at Oscar, who burst out running. He then hugged Chloris than looked at me. "I got a gift for you and your sister. Come on, follow me."
I was very excited. I loved when my father visited. He only visited once every year, but he always stayed with us on the week of me and my sister's birthday. Once I asked him why he didn't live with us, and he said his boss wouldn't allow it. His boss didn't even want Dad visiting us, but he did it secretly.
My sister and I followed our father until we approached his monster truck. My sister got in the middle seat, while my father and I got on the left and right of her.
Dad started the car, and we were off. "So Chris, your teacher said you were very disrespectful this year. Is that true?" He said it in a very strict tone.
I gulped. "Yes."
He looked furious for a moment, then he burst out laughing. "Just like your old man." Dad then looked at Chloris. "Hey baby, how was your school year?"
She looked at him and smiled. "It was nice. I didn't make many friends, but I did well in my classes."
"Well, that seems to happen in this family. I didn't fit in as well in many schools. As for smarts, well let's just say if it weren't for your looks then people would never guess you're related to me and Chris."
I frowned. "Ye-Hey! She's not that smart, and we look nothing alike."
My father shook his head. "Wrong. If I took pictures of both of you and put them side by side, you would tell you two are related. I mean the hair and eyes might be out of place, but the facial features are identical."
That was when we pulled up to our house. We got out of the car and strolled into the house.
"Happy Birthday!" my mother greeted. She was carrying a cake and had a blue party hat on.
Chloris and I chuckled and hugged our mother. "Thanks Mom," we said simultaneously.
"Whoa, that was weird. You did one of those twin things," Dad said.
We both looked at him and said at the same time, "What?"
Now he looked freaked out. "You did it again! It's when you say something at the same time."
Mom rolled her eyes and chuckled. "You've never changed over the years Percy."
Dad winked and said, "I know."
Chloris looked around excitedly. "Where are the gifts,Dad?"
Mom looked saddened for a moment, but it was gone as fast as it appeared. "You need to be more patient! Let's eat some cake and have some family time. I'm sure your father has a lot to talk about."
With that, family time began
4 hours later
My family was currently on the couch, watching TV.
All of the sudden, my mother turned it off and looked at us. "Time for gifts!"
Dad walked out the house for a moment, and brought back two boxes. "Alright guys first we got to talk, because the gifts won't make sense." I was actually worried because he said it in a dead serious tone. And my father was NEVER serious.
"Okay," Chloris said.
Dad sighed. "Have you heard of the 13 Olympian Gods?" Chloris and I nodded. "I'm Perseus, and you two are demigods."
My eyes widened, but then I burst out laughing. "Good one Dad."
He just frowned and lifted his hand. At the same exact time, the whole house began to shake. After about 10 seconds of this mini earthquake, it stopped.
My sister and I looked at each other, than back at him. I was the first to regain my speech. "That's awesome."
My father smiled. "I became a god after the second Titan War. Have you heard of that?" Chloris and I nodded. "Well, that happened 20 years ago. After I became a god, Zeus used something called the mist to change the original mythology. So people thought there was always 13 Olympians."
"Okay, but what does this have to do with the presents?" Chloris asked.
Dad pulled out the two boxes and handed it to us. I let Chloris open hers first.
She pulled out a necklace with a golden watch.
"Each of you can control one of my domains. Chloris has the power over Earth, while Chris has the power over time," our father explained. "Chloris, since you can only control Earth, I give you a watch that slows down time. What I mean by that is if you push that button, time will take twice as long. Meaning one second, will take two seconds, allowing you to be faster than your enemy. Only you, Chris, and I will be unaffected," Dad explained. Chloris looked bewildered.
This time I opened my box. I pulled out a silver Scottish thistle ring, with engravings of leaves all around it. (It looks like this, but with leave engravings instead: 2009/09/02/budget-and-wedding-ring-ideas/mens%20scottish%20thistle/)
"This won't give you power over Earth, but it will help you out. If you are walking on dirt, grass, mud, basically anything that comes from the Earth, you will become a better warrior. You will become faster, stronger, and an overall better fighter. Also, wearing this won't allow you to be killed by the Earth. What I mean is that you can't die if you fall, get hit, or basically get harmed by the Earth." He explained.
Chloris and I put on our gifts. I felt the ring bury itself into my finger making it hurt like hell. Eventually, the pain was gone.
My father smiled. "Okay, let's try it out, shall we?"
Dad got up and led us to our massive yard. All of the sudden we heard thunder. "Yeah yeah, let me just test their skills!" Dad yelled at the sky. The thunder rumbled again. "You're such a pain in the ass."
Our father looked at us. "Alright kiddies, get your weapons. Looks like we gotta get to camp." I opened my mouth to say something but was interrupted. "All your questions will be answered. Just say goodbye to your mother, and get your weapons. You're going to a demigod summer camp."
I nodded and we ran into the house. I went up to my room and got my tomahawk I use for hunting. It had a leather grip, and it was bronze. I walked out and saw my sister with her machete, bow, and quiver of arrows.
We ran down the stairs and saw my mother crying. My sister hugged her. "It's okay Mom. Daddy says that we'll only be gone for the summer." I embraced my mother as well.
She sniffled and let go of us. "Be good okay guys? Don't get yourselves get killed." We nodded and returned to our father.
"Okay. You guys got to get to camp before Zeus gets his panties in a bunch." Thunder rumbled. "So you guys got any questions before you leave?"
I didn't have any, but my sister did. "I have two. One is why didn't you tell us we were demigods before?"
Dad frowned. "Well I would have loved to, but it would have made your scent stronger. Your scent is what makes monsters find you. For some reason, when you find out you're a demigod, your scent gets stronger. Stronger scent means more monsters."
My ADHD made me very curious about this 'scent.' "What do we smell like?"
"I don't know. What's your last question?" Dad asked tapping his foot impatiently.
"What will we do in this camp?" Chloris asked.
My father scratched his head. "It will train you to become better heroes. I know you can handle yourselves, but I need you guys to be trained well. I'll see you soon." With that he snapped his fingers and I saw darkness surround me. A second later we were right next to some huge pine tree.
I looked at my sister. "Well that was a very subtle way of explaining things."
Chloris chuckled. "Come on. Let's meet these campers."
Chloris's POV
Chris and I began to walk to some huge house in the middle of this camp. It was truly amazing. There were about 25 cabins in a U formation. A few kids stopped to look at us, but we just ignored them.
Chris leaned over to me. "Sheesh. Why don't they paint a portrait of us while their at it."
I smiled at his comment, as we walked into the building. We were greeted by a number of teenagers, all sitting around a ping pong table.
There was a man in about his 30's in a wheelchair at the end of the table. "Hello. Who are you?"
My brother stepped forward. "I am Chrysos Jones, or Chris for short. This is my twin sister Chloris Jones. Were the children of the god Perseus."
Some guy did a spit take once he said that.
The guy in the wheelchair looked at us with wide eyes. A guy with black hair a green eyes looked at us with an amused look. "I doubt it. My loser half-brother would never score a ch-"
He was cut short when a golden clock appeared on me and my brother's heads.
Everybody got up from their seats and bowed, except that one guy. The wheelchair guy said, "All hail the twins of Perseus. The lord of time, and the Earth!"
I looked at my brother and said, "Are they really bowing?"
He just shrugged his shoulders in response.
The wheelchair guy pointed at some guy with blonde hair. "Joey, show these two around camp."

Joey nodded and walked out the building. "Follow me."

Notes

So what do you guys think? I tried to take away all of the percabeth fandom out their and give Percy a new girl. Also, I know you're thinking a new a-hole half brother of Percy. Yeah, we kinda need a bad guy. So deal with it. This is wanna be fat signing out.

P.S. Also comment anything that you guys think I should change or keep the same. I need constructive criticism. Thanks!
