"Were loosing him! Someone get William! QUICKLY!" Percy heard a kid yell as another raced out. Moments later William and Nico shot threw the door, followed by the rest of the seven. However Skully's last breath had been taken and he was gone.
~•~•~•~•~••~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
Time suddenly skipped forward for Percy, lights dancing over his eyes, friends growing older and the infirmary around his grew different, beds moved, sheets changed until it came to a stop. The infirmary was silent and Percy glances around, confused.
Where was he?
Where had he gone?
Had he gone threw time yet again?
A groan snapped his from his daze and he slowly glances to the side, the same bed that Skully had lied in a boy lay on instead. A boy with dark black wolf ears and pale skin.
Annabeth sat beside him, half asleep but she instantly shot up to the boy who Percy assumed to be William.

"PERCY!" She yelled making the boy jolt up in his bed

"Huh?!?!" He yelled and immediately glances to Annabeth "who are you? Where am I? Where's mum!?" He asks, fully panicked and backed away from Annabeth, almost falling off the bed

"Calm down, it's me, Annabeth-" Annabeth tried to explain but got interrupted by a loud bark and for Lupa to rush in, leaping onto the bed and huddling up to William, soothing him immediately. She licked at his face making the boy giggle and hug the wolf fondly.

"Shhh my child, calm down we are safe," Lupa murmured with a huff and nuzzles William gently calming each other down, the wolf growled and snapped her head to the door as Artemis and Thaila emerge from the door frame along with a nervous looking Nico "explain. Now." The wolf snarled and got up on her hinges, ready to protect her supposed and adopted pup, William was more of happy to stay behind his adoptive mother and held onto her fur tightly

"Lupa dear you don't understand." Artemis muttered as Lupa huffed and wrapped her tail around William her eyes narrowing to the Godess

"I understand everything your saying Artemis, you are NOT taking my baby away from me!" The wolf sneered and rose a paw so she could extend her claws to show threat. William whimpers and peered over his mother's huge amount of fur

"Mum, what's going on?" He asks but only got a lick to the cheek from Lupa as she shushed him

"We need to take him Lupa, we don't know if he's the REAL Percy." Artemis argued but Lupa immediately barked and bares her teeth

"HE IS MINE AND IF YOU CANT UNDERSTAND THAT I WILL MAKE YOU! HE STAYS WITH ME!" The wolf howled and leapt at the ground Infront of Artemis, taking a stance of defense and attack, she rose her tail high, her lips rolled back to reveal fresh white teeth, Artemis was about to pull out her bow but Thaila stopped her and pulled the Godess back. They exchanged a small low conversation until Artemis sighs and nods

"Fine."

Lupas mood immediately brightened and her stance relaxed, her ears perked high and she gently padded to Williams bed side and grabbed onto his hand in her jaw and dragged the boy out, he wore simple clothing, a white shirt (which suprised Percy since he was used to seeing the warrior in his blue hoodie) and jeans. However that was besides the point, what got Percy the most was the boys wings.

Long amazing dark wings extended from his back, threw holes cut on his shirt so they poked out promptly, the feathers looked so feathery, so soft.
Percy frowns, only imagining the pain of loosing them William had to endure. Percy would have surely been angry if he had lost such amazing...creations.
He quickly followed behind William and Lupa, avoiding eye contact with Nico who was eyeing up Percy with shock and trotted to Williams side, possiblyguessing what Percy was up to. Percy smiled and went to Lupas side glancing around the changed Camp, it was summer and almost all the people were avoiding Leo who huddled lonely in his work shop, boiling and hogging all the fans, Jason was with him though, not really caring of the heat and they seemed to be joking around quite happily.
Percy sighed upon noticing many people sending William dark harsh glares. Lupa snarled off at them, making many scurry away or look in the other direction immediately.

That Percy was greatful for.

Nico smiles to William as they arrived to a cabin, full of wolves and surrounded by a few guard wolves which happily welcomed the incomers. However they growled at the air towards Percy with tilted heads. Probably confused since they could smell Percy, but could not see him.

"Heya guys!" William cheered and hugged a Hurd of wolves as they licked at his face. One stiffened going goat eyed at the sudden clutch as another scarpers off. The rest just accepted fate and enjoyed the attention the boy was giving them.
Lupa smiled and trotted into the cabin, leaving Nico, Percy and William outside.
Nico sighed and walked up to William with a warm smile

"Hi, I just wanted to say hi," He chirped and let out a hand to shake "I'm Nico." The son of Hades smiled, William smiled back, slightly amused but confused at the sudden gesture but non the less shakes hands with the demigod.

"I'm...i think I'm William, Lupa calls me that but everyone keeps calling me Percy." He muttered and lowered his head as though he had disappointed someone. However Nico merely snickers

"You'll get used to it William," he replied and rubbed the back of his neck nervously and Percy instantly saw the dark glint inbetween the boys eyes, the classy look he saw when he remembered being chained to the chair with Skully, where Nico seemed to have been possessed. William didn't seem to notice though. "Say...would you like to meet up with me and a few of my palls during capture the flag later?" Nico asks only causing William to beam

"Really?! I'd love to!" He cheered as Nico nodded

"Meet me at the south end of the river as soon as the game starts, try to be quite to." He orders before walking off, Percy narrowed his eyes and scowled under his breath.
Something was definitely wrong here.
William sniffed the air just as he was about to enter the cabin, he slowly turned around and came face to face with Percy.
He didn't scream.
Yell.
Squel.
He simply stared.
Percy chewed his lip and manages a smile, William didn't seem that bad, especially in this time period.

"...how long have you been standing there?" He asks as he turned fully around, Percy straightened his back "and why do you look like me? Are you my twin?!" He asks again but Percy instantly shushed him and glances around, pushing the stunned clone into the cabin, Lupa raised her head from her bed but immediately puts it to rest as it was only William.
The clone looked like he had his own individual room and Percy got him inside, Percy closed the door and locked it. Only to turn around and yet again come face to face with William. Percy yelled in shock and pressed himself up against the door, pale

"God's give me a warning next time." Percy muttered but William simply rolled his eyes

"Are you my guardian angel?" William asks.
Percy shakes his head.
"Just an Angel?"
Percy sighed and shakes his head again.
"Just a Guardian?"
Percy groaned and rubbed his temples
"Oohhhh are you my concious?!"

Percy sighed heavily and let out a shakey and controlled breath
"No, i'm not your angel, i'm not your guardian and i'm most definitely NOT your concious." He hissed making William go silent.

"....are you my twin?-"

"I'm not your anything!" Percy yelled and William flinched, backing away, Percy immediately groans looking at the clone "I'm just, another you okay? From the future. Only you can see me." Percy explained

"......................A ghost?"

"Whatever kid." Percy sighed and sit down on the clones bed
Surely he wasn't THIS complicated when he was....normal? In the past? Whatever you want to call it. William goes to his bed, jumping down onto it and fell asleep not soon after.
Percy sighed and closes his eyes to

I'll just rest my eyes until he wakes up Percy thought until moments later, he himself had drifted off to sleep.
