Rebirth 2

My teammate, Bryce, pulled me aside.
"Ethan, what are you hiding? Don't lie to me. I know you're hosting the spirit of Set."
I didn't say anything. The voice in my head spoke instead. It said it out loud too.
Ohhhh, busted! Ethan, did you not shut your mouth? It laughed. Oh this chaos, perfect for me. Amos was a much more restraining host too. I like this body.
Bryce growled. "Set, get out of Ethan."
Oh, he's the descendant of the great king Ramses the II, challenger of god. Great bloodline, hardly tarnished. Direct descendant too. It said. Bryce has said earlier that it was Set. Shame his brother was of Norse and Egyptian bloodline though. He would've been harder to stay in and I would've got constantly pushed out. And Ethan, why don't you show them your djed pendant, don't you?
I pulled out my necklace I had found. Bryce gasped. "Take that off now! Set will take the power of it so fast!"
I took it off and let it drop. "Happy?" My voice cracked with grief.
Bryce picked up the once gold pendant that was now flashing red. "Set. What did you do?"

Annabeth's POV

"I'm telling you, Percy. He's dead! He's in the underworld now!" I shouted. Percy was still looking at the student's dead body.
"Don't you think that he's a Norse half blood now? It's been nineteen years. Wouldn't he have gone to rebirth?" Percy asked. "His brother is that kid that got pulled away by that basketball kid I think. I saw the two brothers on the bleachers with another girl and were looking straight at us. And I felt that the girl, she could see through the Mist."
I sighed. "They could just be friends and demigods and whatever!"
"Hey Percy, Annabeth." Someone familiar called. It was Carter with his sister Sadie. "We were told that a new magician is here. Jacob saw him with the a suspicious guy."
"Is it that kid with black hair and brother with that dead body on the ground?" Percy deadpanned. Carter nodded. "Sounds like it."
"Luke! Ethan!" Someone screamed. I saw that it was a girl with brownish black hair tied in a braid and she was running faster than Clarrise when she finds her target. Which was fast.
"Percy, that's a daughter of Hermès right there, don't you think? It was that girl that could see us." I told Percy.
"We both have someone to catch, right? So why don't we team up?" Sadie popped in. Her bubblegum bubble popped right before too.
I nodded along to the sense in her words. "That's right." I said.
"Then what are we still doing here for? Let's go!" Sadie darted off.
I ran to the other direction to the girl screaming two names. Percy ran over too and held her in a hug.
"It's going to be alright. I'm Annabeth and that's Percy. Nothings going to happen. If you are a true one, we just need one thing." I assured. I took out the knife and the instant reaction from her was screaming.
"Stop! You're that la-" Percy cut her off. "It's just a drop of blood. If you get cut, you're one of us. If not, we'll give you other choices for your ability."
I gave Percy a smile of gratitude. I sliced my own hand to assure her. Then, carefully, I gave a thin slice on her palm. Blood came out, but not enough to make a scar. I nodded. I then pulled out a canteen and dripped a few drops of nectar into eh tiny wound.
"Better?" The girl nodded eagerly.
"So, do I have to go?" She asked.
"Yes. It's one of the only safe places for demigods to live." I said. "Now, a proper introduction would be nice."

Luke's POV

I asked the lady, she called herself a Valkyrie, to let me at least watch my friends. I needed to make sure they were safe.
After I was satisfied, I left for Valhalla.
It was a tall building surrounded by limestone walls that were 15 feet tall. But once I got inside the walls, it didn't look like a plain old hotel anymore. It was like a paradise.
"So, what exactly is it?" I asked. The Valkyrie grinned evilly.
"You will see."
