Thread: Percy Jackson: Next Generation (Naomi David X Nefarious)

Celestine Feu was a 16 year old girl, normal in most aspects of life, for she liked to shop, she liked to get her hair and nails done, basically, she liked to be pretty. What made her unusual from most teenaged girls was the fact that most 16 year old girls didn't know how to throw blades and never miss their targets. Most 16 year old girls didn't know how to shoot a bow, and still never miss their target. Most 16 year old girls didn't know how to handle a blade, and win a sword fight. Hell, most 16 year old girls didn't know how to defend themselves using only their hands. But she did, she could do all of that, and more, since her Mother, a former Navy SEAL who also taught self defense classes, made her learn, warning her that a girl as pretty as her needed to learn how to protect her virtue, how to defend herself. Her name translated to heavenly fire, and indeed, when she was angry, she looked like an avenging angel, sent down from heaven to wreak destruction on those who did wrong. One moment, her very angelic features, her unearthly beauty, could be very calming, very relaxing, like looking out on a peaceful ocean. But the next moment, her features could be ravaged with rage and hatred, which was very disconcerting, like looking out on an angry body of water that wished to drown whatever was on it. She was 6 feet tall, just a few inches shorter than her Mother, Astrid Feu, and her Mother's name translated to Beautiful Goddess Fire. Celestine shared her Mother's body type, which was plenty curvy, but also hardened with muscles from years of training to be strong and powerful, and she also had a nice tan going, again, like her Mother, which both earned them the stares of men. She suspected her Mother had met her Father, whoever he was, on the beach, which was why they lived near a beach in Miami, Florida. Astrid had very few features that she did not share with her Mother, such as her hair, which was ink black instead of her Mother's silvery blonde. Her hair was also wavy while her Mother's hair was straight. Other features that she did share with her Mother was her heart shaped face and almond shaped eyes, but her eyes were a sea green instead of a sky blue. The only thing Celestine could get out of her Mother about her Father was that her Father shared Celestine's eyes and hair, that he was quiet and powerful. She also managed to sneak a peak in her Mother's diary once, that she had loved two men, one who was brash and aggressive, the other being quiet and powerful. Little did Astrid know that the brash and aggressive man could have just as easily been her Father since he was equally as charming as the quiet and powerful man. Lately, things had started to get downright weird. Last week, she had been on a class boating trip, to celebrate the last day of school, to celebrate the fact that they would be sophomores no more, but juniors, and the ocean had been so choppy and terrible, many feared the boat would capsize. But Celestine felt no fear, in fact, she felt like she was at home in the ocean. She just calmly prayed for the ocean to calm, and little did she know, the ocean had obeyed her command, and it calmed. And just a few days ago, she had gotten into a fight with the school bully, and she had won of course, having gotten an odd jolt of energy from somebody pouring ice water on her, which had been meant as a distraction, but instead gave her the extra juice to beat the bully. And just yesterday, she had gotten into a knife fight with the same bully she had beaten, and had gotten a nasty wound on her right arm. Again, she had won the fight, but she didn't kill the bully, she had merely disarmed him. When she had gone to wash away the dirt and everything from the wound, the water healed her, closing up the wound, making it look like nothing ever happened. She nearly fainted from the shock, but she ran home right to her Mother, who had gone very pale when she told her what happened. Her Mother then told her that she was in grave danger after she had told her all of the weird things that had been going on, that bad things would come for her now. She immediately called a strange number, and apparently, the folks on the other line told her that they would be sending people to pick her up. Her Mother immediately began to give her weapons, weapons that she had been practicing with her whole life, but these looked different. The arrows had bronze heads to them, instead of the steel ones she practiced with. The knives were the same way, bronze instead of steel. Even the sword she got, well, it looked like a ring, but Astrid showed her how to activate it, which was to take the ring off of her finger, and say the word 'foti' which was Greek for Fire. Indeed, when Astrid tried it out, it did indeed turn into a sword, bronze like everything else. Astrid turned it back into a ring, and put it back onto one of her daughter's fingers. Her Mother then told her about the two men she had loved, that she had fallen in love with gods, that these gods had treated her like a Queen. The weapons were a gift from Ares, God of War, who knew that Astrid could see him for who he really was, a god rather than a mundane who got into bar fights, well, except for the ring, which had been a gift from Poseidon, God of the Sea, who wanted their little girl that they had together to be able to defend herself from the things that went bump in the night. Now, Celestine looked like she was ready for war, for a good fight, but Astrid had her with a backpack that was full of goodies for a demigod ready for a journey. Mundane money, clothes, food, and medical supplies.
