Chapitre 50: Second Trial of Misery
{Misery Dream, Unknown Time}
"Ozzy could you please stop looking at me like that." Thalia or at least something that looked and acted eerily similar to Thalia said.
"Huh, oh yeah sorry." I muttered still in a daze as I looked deep into her electric blue eyes, something I had never seen before, they were mesmerizing to say the least.
"We should get going to next class, I know you don't like Pegasus riding but it is something we need to do, come on Luke and Annabeth are already waiting for us." She said with a white smile that struck my heart and made me enter a daze once more, I never thought being able to actually see her would be this amazing.
"Yeah let's go." I added as Thalia grabbed my hand where my tatoo was imprinted and I once more was shocked since I could once more feel my connection to both my spear and the shadows surrounding us.
As we ran across camp hand in hand her warmth producing a giddy feeling in my gut something I had never experienced even when some Aphrodite kids tried using charmspeak on me.
At this moment I was the happiest I had ever been, being able to see all the campers and cabins colors and all for the first time, and I was starting to hope this would never end. I wasn't thinking of finishing my quest, escaping this place or even about Akhlys who was probably the one who had sent me here.
Soon we both arrived at the pegasus stables although most of them were out in the fields grazing and in the fields were a group of kids, which I quickly recognized though I didn't know how, as the unclaimed, Hermes and Athena kids.
"Luke, Annabeth." Thalia yelled beside me her hand still clampedaround mine as she signaled at the two demigods with her other hand.
Two figures came running at us, they looked like brother and sister both of them had blonde hair, while the boy had blue colored eyes and the small girl had greyish eyes something taht swiped their lineage to their godly parent.
Yet as I looked at them a raging fury etched deep within me was threatening to spill out, because even as I felt Thalia's hand around mine, I was once more reminded of her fate, and how it had been these two's fault.
Still as I turned to my side and saw Thalia's smile complemented by her black punk styled hair I instinctively calmed myself.
"Hey Thalia, Ozzy!" Annabeth yelled rushing to us and hugging Thalia's waist something which seemed weird after all from her looks she seemed to be around 9 years old, probably the age she would actually be right now.
"Hey dude." Luke said to me, but as I stated into his eyes, I could only muster up a hey of my own. Soon after we started the clas and I mounted the same pegasus I always used to ride back in camp since it seemed even in this place the other pegasus were afraid of me.
"As we were about to take flight." I suddenly remembered something which I hadn't realized until now, Thalia was afraid of heights she never got on a pegasus, and it seemed to even hold true now, as while she was on the pegasus she never allowed it to get bigger than a few feet of the ground.
Soon the class ended and we let the pegasus run and fly across the fields freely once more, something which Thalia's pegasus was obviously waiting for since as soon as the daughter of the lord of the skies climbed off its back it took flight higher into the air that I even thought was possible for pegasus.
"Seriously I will never understand why we have to ride these, there aren't even enough pegasus for every camper, let us choose Chiron." Thalia grumbled to herself well that was probably what she was intending, but her thunderous voice never let her truly just talk to herself.
"Don't worry Thalia I am sure you will one day conquer your fear of heights." I said as I placed my hand on her shoulder. "Nuh,uh, never." She replied while shaking her head.
After the first class, life soon became a blur of happiness, years past by as Thalia, Luke, Annabeth and I continued growing though I always felt my resentment towards the latter two no matter how much time passed.
One day though our monotonous life changed as my powers grew I was soon able to see everything shadows around me could see, one of them however caught a weird scene it was a satyr, a middle aged woman and a black haired boy with sea green eyes running from something in the woods and they seemed to be going straight towards camp.
I honestly wondered if something similar had happened to my mother since after all the camp guards did find me in the middle of the first so it was definitely plausible. I sunk into my shadow teleporting before the trip, two words escaping my mouth, "Sup Grover."
Yeah I ecognized were I had seen the satyr before his aura looked identical to that of Grover, someone who I also blamed for Thalia's 'death' though I had never seen the young satyr before at camp so it wasn't as if I could do anything to him, though not like I wanted to not in this place at least.
"Odysseus, thank the gods, something is following us." Grover said in pants, "Yeah I can tell." I said sarcasticoytowares the trio as my shadows caught onto what monster had been chasing the bunch, you woyldn't belive it, the thing was a Minotaur of all things.
"Stay behind me kid, young lady." I said towards the two people accompanying the satyr one probably the boy I could guess was the demigod A.K.A the reason for the monster.
They quickly followe my words and ran behind me, just at the exact moment the Minotaur burst through the trees, in full charge towards me. I looked at the half bull, half human with a deadpan look as it continued rushing towards me.
"Are 't you gonna do anything!" The boy yelled behind me.
'Heck what a scaredy-cat.' I thought to myself and just as the Minotaur was a few feet from me tens of shadowy tendrils with barbs (my now default tendrils) wrapped around its body stopping it in its tracks. I shot another small shadowy tendril which I had made as shape as possible from my index finger.
The shadow made weapons entered the minotaur's head and shot out of its nape. As the Minotaur started turning into golden dust I turned to the trio their jaws dropped as they looked at me with almost the same terror as they had looked at the Minotaur.
Their faces and my dad's (Chiron) indoctrination led me to saying the sentence we always said to new campers "Welcome to camp half-blood, your home away from home."
