Percy's adventure in Indian mythology

Start of an Unknown Mystery

I woke up in a mildly dim room on a comfortable bed feeling quite hot, i couldn't see much but there were some more beds there too and people were sleeping but then i heard someone talking. A girl was saying “...it can't be connected” then a girl with more soft voice said “i hope it is at least then I'll have something to go on” the other girl replied “He's a hero, don't worry about him, you know he can survive anything ...” And i drifted to sleep again.

I saw a man, he looked like he was in his mid-thirties but his eyes looked like they were older than anything, than i realize i was standing in snow, we both were. The man was quite different looking, he had something at his jaw, blue and it was like shining. He spoke at last “You’ll have a lot questions when you wake up, but I'll have to this, sometimes we have to make hard choices. I'm giving you everything to bend in, I have hope in you.” And everything disappeared; it felt like i was falling and then i woke up.

I was in the same room as before but it was morning now as sunlight was there. I heard someone say “He woke up at last” it was a boy of 17 maybe he was wearing a t shirt that has some kind of symbol on it and as i noticed everyone had the same kind of t shirt, he was telling another boy to call someone and then he came with two girls .wearing the same kind of t shirts almost everyone else was both of them had a good physique.

The first one came to me, she was looking like she might just judo flip me the next second but instead introduced themselves “Hi, I'm Trijya and this is Rashi” she said pointing at the girl besides her but from her voice i noticed she was the girl I've heard last night with the soft voice but now as she spoke there was no softness in it.
Rashi spoke “So how are you feeling?” But Trijya cut her in said “tell me about you.”
That's when i realized i don't know anything about me there was no memory in my mind or it rather felt that the memories were locked so i told her the only thing i remembered "I'm Percy Jackson" and asked " what is this place and why am i here "
Rashi responded “This is Gurukul and you're here because we found you near the river and you were unconscious, so we took you in as there's no mortal who can come into the border of Gurukul we presume you're Half-blood too”. I thought ‘what! a half blood and mortal’ what were they talking about but in the back of my mind i knew these words somehow.
I told them so “i don’t have any memory, i can't remember anything except my name, everything's just like locked away”.
They both gave each other confused looks and said to each other more than me " A memory removing charm or what " said Rashi.
"It’s still there so at least we can try to recover them, go get Guru” Trijya replied to her and then said to me “Guru will be able to get your memories back don't worry”
That's when i noticed most of them had a red coloured mark on their forehead so i asked her what's it "It's a tilak, it helps keep spirits and evil at bay " From her face it looked like she was thinking about something else, deeply in thought she didn't even realize when an elderly man maybe in his late 40s came in, he was quite muscular for his age, but still looked like priest or something.
He told me he was Guru and asked " Do you remember anything else " i told him again that the only thing i remember is my name so he went to the shelf which i just noticed were full of all kind of leaves, roots and a lot of things i can’t name, he was muttering something to a leaf and then he put something else in it and said some more things that i didn't understand and gave it to me to eat. “ It'll remove any memory spell put on you , eat it " it looked disgusting but i really needed my memories so ate it whole and after a few seconds a lot of things came in my mind.
The first thing or person was a blonde girl and then i remembered a lot of faces and ocean and things but it was just a flash, i was again memory less. The only thing that didn't go was the face of the blonde girl whose name i couldn't remember. I told Guru about it “i remembered lot things for a second but then it was all gone in a flash"
He gave me a look like 'are you serious boy' but then it changed to a sad face or rather say disappointed face and he told me " It is not a spell That's keeping you there but a power, someone wants you to know nothing about your past " but then he smiled, formally but still soft smile and said " I shall introduce you to this world than, can you walk?”
I started walking with him as we came out of the big room i found out how large this place was , there were small buildings and cabins here and there and somewhere in middle was a big building with quite amazing architecture, we set on bench in the middle of ground and he started.
"This is a place for Demigods , you know about the Hindu gods , they're all real , I'm one of them too , I'm Devguru Bhrahaspati , this place was made because the children of Gods get hunted by monster and demons as they've the Divine blood in them , you might ask how there are demigods at all , it was Kunti's whish . She had a spell with that spell she can summon gods and they'll give her a child .Kunti gave boon too that spell that whenever good people will have no reason to live life or to say nothing to live for they'll remember this spell and the god who get pity on them comes and gift them with a child. Everyone here is a demigod as it's protected and no mortal can come in here. You must be a demigod as you were able to come in. Do you have any idea who your father or mother might be?"
Half the time I wasn't even listening to him but when he asked the question i thought for a second and told him "I don't know anything about Hindu Gods so can't say " he smiled and told me to read in the library and you'll know and pointed at a large building “but before that go have some breakfast” he pointed to another building.

When i got there i saw Rashi there, she waved at me to come here, the building was painted in red and looked quite old but the food there had be amazing as I could smell the spices, which also got my attention that how badly I was starving, Rashi helped me with breakfast and told me it's hard for first couple of days but I'll get used to it.
I asked her who was her Godly parent "I'm the daughter of Goddess Ganga, she's the Goddess of the river that flows through India and surrounds most of the Gurukul” and now I knew why everything here looked Indian
“This place isn't always like this, it's full of people and fun but this time isn't good, we're having a bad time now.” I asked her about what has happened she first thought but then start talking anyway “some of the oldest evils are awakening , monsters are powerful than ever , something has happened we don't know what , that's why a lot of demigods are on quest's to find out about that others are in Temple chanting spells to find out what's happening , and then two days ago one of our best friend vanished , he never leaves without the permission of Guru ,no one dose but he's just gone , no one has seen him ,then we find you yesterday just lying unconscious by the shore of Ganga” she saw other demigods and said “most of them think him vanishing and you appearing has a connection” that's when Trijya entered the hall and said loudly to everyone “To the Training Ground everyone” everyone got up and went behind her but as i was about to fellow them Rashi caught my hand and said “you'll need a sword for that , let's get you one” i went to another building with her and this building was quite messy as there were a lot of weapons just laying around here and there , “Chose a sword that you find good and can lift” most of the were so rusty and old i thought they won't last a fight but when a not so rusty and the one i found was easy to lift sword i chose , Rashi touched it and casted a spell , Now the sword looked like it was just made yesterday and it looked amazing "Nistrimsha" said Rashi , when i gave her a confused look she said “ it's written on it , probably the name of the sword” . We both went to the training ground then, it was huge and a lot of demigods were practicing there, sword fighting each other. Trijya saw me coming and said “ so you wanna try?, It'll always help you against monsters” than she saw me holding the sword and “ try disarming me” i started fighting her with sword ,i didn't know how but i knew how to use a sword , with my every move Trijya was getting more surprised and defending more better but now she started attacking too ,i could feel everyone else has stopped practicing and was watching us now as we circle each other and attack , i noticed she had an open undefended space from her left and i knew how to use it . With two blows she was disarm and jaw dropped, “how...” She said "your fighting style is totally different and surprising , where ..." She was about to ask where did i learn it but didn't , maybe she realized i wouldn't remember.
After everyone was gone from training ground Rashi , Trijya and Guru were only left there , Rashi has told Guru about my style and he wanted to know , while we were waiting there Rashi told me that Trijya is one of the best sword fighter here only Ashoka was able to fight and win her when i gave the look of 'who' she said "Ashoka's the one who's missing and he was also Trijya's boyfriend " and told me that's the reason she's not much cheering these days . When we had ground for empty Guru said let's see “The sword of Praduman, Nistrimsha, a good choice “his sword was quite bigger and better i thought, but i still fought. It looked like he could just disarm me anytime but was tasting it after a while he just did it. " Yes it is a different style of fighting , i think.." he was cut off by a sound like popping a balloon and a man appeared " Narayan , Narayan , greetings Gurudev " " greetings to you to Devrishi , how come you're here " replied Guru . This man looked quite fancy , more like a pop singer a guitar on his back a lose t shirt and a smile on face like it was permanent there. "I'm here to deliver a massage from the Tridev ,and he gave a scroll to Guru" while Guru was reading it i asked Rashi who was he " He's the messenger God , and if you Don't know Tridev are the Trinity of Brahama , the creator God , Vishnu the preserver God and Shiva the Destroyer God ."
And Guru said thanks to the Messenger god as he vanished and then asked us that we should go rest and he'll talk later to us as he went to the temple in rush. "What happened to him?” asked Rashi. "Something is wrong, very wrong” she rushed towards the temple too.
We went to the library where i read about the basics of Hindu mythology. After a while Trijya came there as Rashi asked her about what happened
She answers “he’s not telling anything ,he just said it’s for the good and that on the next full moon Percy will be going to a quest , with whom and where we'll know in time "
“There are 4 days till full moon” Rashi replied.
Trijya than facing me said "don't worry you'll get your memories back on this quest, and I'll help you in it as i can”

We set there talking about myths for an hour, than went to have lunch and then on training ground as Trijya wanted to see how good I'm with a bow and arrow .While Rashi went to get bow for me. I asked Trijya who her parent was from the Godly side "Surydev, the God of Sun ,now let's see how good are you " , "where are your bow and arrows i asked " she lifted her hand above opening her palm and closing her eyes , as the light from sun melted in her palm and around it Making a bow out of pure fire , as she opened her eyes the fire was gone and in her hand was a bow. i didn't even know how surprised my face was looking as she saw it and started laughing "and arrows" i asked . She just pulled the string of the bow and an arrow formed there, facing the target she shoots and the arrow hit it with perfection. And apparently after a few moments we found out i was horrible at archery, when Rashi gave me bow and arrows and none of my arrow could hit the target with half the perfection of Trijya's most didn't even hit the target. Both girls were giggling. In the evening i learnt some spells and meet a guy named Parth who was son of Varun dev , the God of sea and found out we had a good chemistry , he taught me how to can i get arrows out of nowhere and put things into the reality itself to be used again . I put my sword there. In night Guru gave me a room as everyone else have here, it was small but it was ok.

I was hoping of a dreamless and good sleep after all the training today but man am i wrong. I found myself at a teris of some building and there were two people talking there... no not people maybe , one of them had a tail of serpent where his legs should be and the other one looked like a man but something told me he wasn't they didn't realize i was there maybe.
“Tridev are interfering in the matters now " the one with the serpents tail said " we still need more army , if you order I'll myself fight with you but Tridev .. "
He was cut off by the man in the darkness i couldn't even see his face or anything “are you afraid, Rahu?”
“No my lord” they stared walking towards the stairs “what of the foreigner boy, my lord. Should we be worried” asked Rahu
"I'll take him down myself, just wait until he leaves Gurukul” and they disappeared into the staircase but i couldn't fellow them i just woke up in the middle of the night. But at least this time when i slept i didn't get any dreams.
