-3- Kissing Sunshine *Percy Jackson*

It's my fault?

"That's why Grover's been watching you...to try to keep you safe" Annabeth says

"Grover your a demi-god?" Bianca asked "Satyr" Grover corrected kicking of his fake feet exposing his hooves. I thought Bianca would faint right there.

"Stop it your freaking her out!" Thalia shouted hitting the back of his head

"They're just hoves they're clean!" Grover protested

"Bianca" I said "You two need training to survive we'll take you to the only place that trains you" I gulped "Did you see how good Victoria was?" I choked and took a seat unable to talk about her right now

"We can get that good?" Nico asked trying to mimick Victoria by doing a karate kick in the air while punching the air "She was like a ninja!" he shouted

"Well maybe not in archery...Victoria had a natural skill she was born with when it comes to archery because of her parentage" Grover explained

"Who's her parent?" Nico asked

"Apollo" Artemis said "My twin brother"

"So like what if Apollo is our dad?" Bianca asked "Would that make us and that girl half siblings?"

"Not likley..." Annabeth explained "Apollo kids they all have blonde hair and sky blue eyes"

"Her eyes weren't sky blue they were sad and like grey" Nico reminds us all of the sorrow Victoria was in when she...died

"She was going through a rough time..." I muttered

Bianca smacked her brothers head and gave him a look that could probably kill. "Hey!" he shouted "Well anyways when are we going to that camp!?" Nico asked

"Wait there is another option!" Zoë spoke up

"No there isn't" Thalia said glaring at Zoë

"Yes there is"

"Enough we have burdened these children enough" Artemis announced "Zoë we shall stay for a few hours set up camp, Heal the wounded, and retrieve our guests' things from the school. Bianca come with me"

"What about me?" Nico asked Artemis. She considered the boy "Maybe you can show Grover how to play that game I'm sure he'd love to as a favor for me perhaps?" Artemis asked. Grover scrambled to his hooves and nodded "Yeah c'mon Nico" Grover said they took off into the woods talking about attack points leaving Thalia and me alone sinceAnnabeth went to help setup.

"Good going Jackson if it wasn't for you Victoria would still be here" Thalia grumbled

"Me?" I shouted

"Yeah you! You knew Thorn was a monster! And you followed him we could've taken him together!"

I didn't argue deep down I felt it sas my fault all of it. I stared at Victoria's beanie which lay trampled in the snow "Just leave me alone" I screamed finally. She glared at me but left anyways. I sat there alone and stared at the wolves prtecting the hunters' camp. My heart was ripped to pieces. I looked at my reflection on my sword I looked how I felt. My eyes went pale like my skin I guess losing the one you love does that to you that quick. But there was a nagging feeling Victoria was still out there. Not so well but alive. And I'm not going to stop until I find her. "Hey Percy!" Nico says followed by Grover.

"Hey Nico"

"So your the Son of Poseidon?" he asked

"Yeah"
