Estelle was born after Percy was betrayed and left Earth.

Theron stared at Estelle for a few moments before blinking back his surprise.

"Yes, please give a round of applause to Thalia and Estelle," the assassin finished.

This all had to be a huge coincidence, right? Sally had always wanted a daughter and the fact Estelle had Sally's mother's name and Paul's last name was no coincidence. Demigods don't get coincidence. And the more that Theron looked at it, the more he saw traces of his mother and step-father there. Estelle had Sally's warm chocolate hair, and Paul's dark eyes.

As the Hunters and Campers left to go back to their cabins, Theron walked up to Estelle.

"Hey, can I talk to you?" he asked.

Estelle looked confused for a moment but nodded.

"Follow me."

The two wandered into the forest until they came across Zeus's Fist. Theron was surprised that the pile of rocks was even still standing after all these years. Maybe the Hecate Cabin had something to do with it.

Theron sat down on one of the rocks and looked over at Estelle. She seemed wary, if not frightened.

"Who's your godly parent?" the Commander asked kindly.

"That's difficult," Estelle frowned, "You see, I wasn't born a demigod. I was born a Clear-Sighted mortal with two amazing parents, Sally and Paul Blofis,"

Theron's throat tightened as he heard this. Estelle was her sister.

"Then how are you at Camp?" the assassin asked, "Shouldn't the borders keep mortals out?"

"They do," Estelle replied, "But Poseidon decided to adopt me,"

"Why?" Theron questioned, "Why did he adopt you?"

"I don't know," the demigod shrugged, "I heard him say that this was a better way to keep me safe," 

Theron put his head in his hands and groaned.

"I know you're lying," Estelle said looking up at the Commander, "I know you know something about Percy Jackson,"

Theron felt like he was trying to swallow a mouse, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Please," Estelle looked close to tears, "Tell me something."

Neither person spoke for a moment, and Estelle sighed. She turned to go back to her cabin when the assassin spoke.

"He's alive," and with that, the Commander burst into flames.

Estelle stood, staring at the place Theron once stood.

He's alive.

Those two words brought so much emotion to the daughter of Poseidon.

Anger.

Sadness.

And most of all, Hope.


Theron flame-traveled into his room at the Chaos Cabin. He took deep breaths and sat down slowly on his bed. This made matters a lot more difficult. His younger sister was on Earth, and looking for him. The assassin sighed and laid down to go to sleep. He closed his eyes and drifted into the realm of Morpheus.

"Who's going to wake him up this time?" a feminine voice whispered.

"Not me! Scout and I woke him up last time!" another voice murmured.
