17Well, I was reading some really interesting stories on a website that I found and they were too short for my liking… now I know how all of you feel! Oh, and to the bitch who had oh-so-nicely commented on my older version of this story, how do you like it now? Are you even reading this? Random question (I think I may just start doing these): Who is a directioner that's reading this? I knew who they were before they were famous in America, I feel so accomplished :')!
I DO NOT OWN PERCY JACKSON OR ANY REFERENCE TO IT! I just own Alex and Violet and whoever else in here that you do not recognize!

"Well, you should be claimed soon enough. The gods made a promise. But for now, you'll spend a short while in the Hermes cabin," Annabeth informed. Violet and I nodded our heads, taking it all in. She walked us to the Hermes cabin, not trusting us to go alone in case we wandered off course. She said a swift greeting to Connor and Travis before leaving us with devilish and tricky children of Hermes. The look Connor had sent towards me immediately had me griping my bag in fear of theft. Violet kept hers near her at all times. We knew how these people were. Each child in the cabin all had the same looks, most of them were male. One female, though, had me and violet rearing back in surprise.
"It's like you've never seen a girl in here before!" she exclaimed.
"Sorry," violet apologized, "but it's just sort of shocking to see a daughter of Hermes. From what we heard, this place is usually full of guys…"
"Well, that's understandable. I'm Angel, by the way.
"Well, I'm Violet and this is Alex."
"That's sort of ironic," I blurted out of the blue. Angel and Violet both looked at me as if I had two heads.
"Well, your name is Angel, but I'm sure you're anything but," I muttered in an attempt to explain myself.
"Oh, yeah, I get that a lot," Angel replied back. Before either Violet or I knew, we became quick friends with Angel Hellenoff.
A few days had soon passed, and Violet was claimed. The first thing out of her mouth was: "That bastard! He was right there and didn't have the audacity to tell me! I'll kill him!" As you probably guessed, her father turned out to be the charming god of madness and grapes, Dionysus. I still hadn't been claimed, to which sent the Hero of Olympus, Percy Jackson into a fit of rage.
"They promised! They absolutely promised! Of course, you trust the gods, the 'higher power', to do something, but noo, they are too important to do it!" he screamed.
"Seaweed Brain, calm down. It may be just a mistake; we should just give them some more time!" Annabeth tried to reason.
"More time, more time! Annabeth, we gave them days, days to do it! And they didn't!" That's when you cue loud claps of thunder and Dionysus walking towards Percy, Annabeth, and me in a menacing pace with a look that could kill.
"She needs to come to Olympus," he announced. "She needs to be destroyed!" Violet stood in front of me protectively, as if she was my sister.
"No, father, you are not going to 'destroy' her! For one, she is not a machine that does not work and two, I WILL not allow it! She was there when I needed someone, unlike a certain person that will not be mentioned!" violet screamed in his face. I could tell that comment hurt him, as he looked slightly upset. He composed his emotions before saying, "Move, Violet."
"No!" she exclaimed. Pollux tried to get her to head over to him, but she stubbornly refused. She grabbed my arm and headed off in one direction (a/n: ^.^), away from Pollux and away from Dionysus. Vines started to wrap around her feet until her movements were restricted.
"Sorry, child, but it was for your own protection," he said before grabbing my arm and flashing us both to Olympus.
When Lord Zeus saw me, he roared, "You need to be destroyed, you monster."
"No means to be disrespectful, Lord Zeus, but I kind of already had that established. What I want to know is why?" I asked.
"How dare you be disrespectful! How dare you speak to me!" he roared in my face once more. Even the calm, level-headed Artemis seemed to want to vaporize me on the spot. Only one god seemed calm enough, though not by much, to answer me.
"You should not have been born. Your birth was a disgrace and chaos inducing matter to the gods. You, child, are the daughter of my enemy," Poseidon all but roared. I blinked my eyes once or twice in shock before opening my unfiltered mouth.
"So, I take it none of you like me very much," I bluntly and stupidly said. Each and every pair of eyes in the room swiveled towards me in a spiteful glare. I shrank backwards, an immediate reaction.
"Let's see, you should have never been born and you are a danger to the gods, so, let's see… NO!" a god said, whom I was guessing was Apollo from the bright light and the golden chair.
"What have I done to make you not like me?" I asked, a bit timidly. "What god could have sired me to cause you so much disgrace?"
"God, god? No god sired you, child, you are the daughter of a Titan!" Aphrodite, whom I could tell from the looks, shrilly said. I stood there in quiet shock. I was the daughter of a titan? I didn't think it was possible! It shouldn't have been possible! They were all gone, banished into Tartarus!
"Only one titan was out of Tartarus, one we couldn't send back in, and that, my child, means you are the daughter of Oceanus. With that said, Poseidon pointed his trident and Zeus pointed his bolt, both aimed at me. A bright light formed from the tips of both and came barreling at me. That's all I could remember before I was out.
Here's the new chapter, hope you like! No, this is not the end, what fun would that be? To POTTERHEAD, you found out Violets dad! You were... kinda close to Alex's dad I guess! It wasn't Poseidon, though it seemed like it! Thanks to everyone who reviewed or favorited! It really means a lot!
