Equestrian Demigod

  “Well, that was fun." I said to Percy as we walked back to our cabin for the first time in 3 or 4 years. I lost count while in Star City. He looked at me and scoffed.

  “Yeah? You got to play the ‘I’m a few hundred thousand years old’ card every time we met the cops.The rest of us had to fight our way out, pretending that Lady Artemis was our older sister.” I glanced at him before busting up laughing.

  "Well, I gotta go see the Olympians to see what they need.”

   “Ok bro. See you later.” I smiled at Percy. With that, I jogged back to the entrance of the camp. I got a chill up my spine as I looked back one last time. I smiled and  mentally said ‘I’ll be back.’

   I formed my ice sword and sea green trident. ‘Yup, still got it.’ I thought with a smile. O.K. here we go. I plugged my headphones into my iPod, when I realized I forgot my charger. I ran back to the cabin and grabbed the item of my search. I then walked to the tumbler that Batman gave me and smiled. ‘Note to self: thank Bats for the Tumbler’ I then got into the vehicle and sped off to the Empire State Building. Once I arrived, I hopped out and used the mist  to disguise it as a Corvette.

  “600th floor please.” I asked as I walked in. The kid behind the desk looked as if he barely woke up 20 minutes ago. His hair was a mess, his uniform was worse, and smelled like Cerberus' breath.

   "Sorry kid…” He spoke in a bored tone, like he was forced to be here.

    “Really?” I gave him an annoyed look.

   “Oh Shit! Sorry Mr.Logan.” The man behind the desk had a look of horror when he realized that he spoke to me.

     “No harm, No foul,” I said with a grin as I grabbed the key card and stepped in the elevator. The elevator dinged as the doors opened allowing me to walk on Olympus.  I was soon at the gates of the throne room when Hecate materialized in front of me and spoke. The goddess was dressed in a black cloak and all I saw was a white smile, like the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland. It was very creepy.

   “Logan, time for your next quest.” With that, she waved her hand in front of my face, and I blacked out.

As I woke up, I rubbed my aching head and grumbled to myself “Damn you Hecate. I will get you back. Now where on earth am I?” I looked around groggily and saw a golden chariot ascending from the clouds. Thank the Gods! I started to follow it until I saw a town in the far off distance. I then noticed something I haven’t seen in Years! An unpaved road. I looked around and saw apple trees around, so I picked one. After I took a bite, I damn near fainted. That apple was amazing! After I finished the apple, I was walking and somehow managed to run face first into a tree.

"OW! SON OF A BITCH!" After I yelled in pain, I heard rustling in a near by bush and drew my ice sword. 'Here we go'. I lept into said bush, and pinned a small pink horse  to the ground. I looked in surprise, then rolled away and drew my bow.

   “Di Immortales! What are you doing?” I yelled in surprise.The horse looked at me stunned. I prepared to fire until it screamed in terror yelling.

   “Don’t kill me!” I heard it squeak before it darted in a speed to shame Hermes. Well, that just happened. I started back on the path as I walked into a town full of small colorful horses milling about until they saw me. I heard many screams, then saw the town was deserted. I whistled in surprise.

    “Damn! And here I thought the Minotaur was terrified of me." 'I might as well take a look around, see what’s so peculiar about here.' I looked about the town and saw a large barn in the distance.'Finally, some sign of civilization.' I ran up to the barn and knocked on the door.

    I heard a rough country voice ring from within the barn. “Hang on! I’m a comin’!” I saw the door opened by a small orange-yellow coloured horse with hair ties in her mane and tail. She wore a cowboy hat and had green eyes. One thing I found peculiar was that she had a tattoo of 3 apples on her flank.

     “Whoa Nelly!” I heard her yelp in surprise. She was about to slam the door in fear, but I stuck my foot in between the door and the frame. ‘Holy Fucking Shit that hurt!’ I screamed in my head. ‘That pony sure is strong!’

     “Hold it! What in TARTARUS is going on here, and who are you?” I yelled in confusion.

     “Mah name’s AppleJack. Now please don’t hurt me. Ya can ‘ave anything you want, just leave us alone.” She squeaked in fear. My expression softened at this.

    “I’m sorry, I've been here a few hours, and every creature here fears me. It’s like they’ve never seen a human. By the way, Where am I?”

    “A Human? Ah’ve never heard of a human. But where you are is a place called Equestria. A land full of Unicorns, Pegasi, and, like me, Earth ponies.” I looked at her and just about laughed in shock.

   I spoke up after I managed to control my nerves. “Well, my name is Logan.”

    “Logan? What a weird name.” She spoke with a tone that reminded me of something I wish I had known; the tone of an older sister. I chuckled at the earth pony's smile and sense of endearment.

    “Says the pony whose name is AppleJack!” I said with a smile.

     “So, there are Unicorns and Pegasi here too? Interesting.” I said to AppleJack, then my mind began to formulate a plan for what ever reason.

     “Eyup.” I jumped in surprise and whirled around and almost drew my ice sword. I looked at the offender and let out a breath I had involuntarily held.

      “Holy Hades! You scared the crap out of me! Who are you?”

       “Oh, that’s ma brother Big Mac.”

       “Hows it going?” I asked awkwardly.

      “Oh, hey Logan, where did you saw you were from?” I looked at her and felt my eyes widen in surprise.

      "I'm sorry! I come from a, well, a world that is very similar to yours, but more advanced, I guess you could say." I awkwardly rubbed the back of my head as I gave an equally awkward chuckle.

   “So how’d you end up here?” I looked up and spoke.

   “Well, I had just came back to my home with my two half brothers, and as I was talking to my brother, Percy, I received a summons to Mount Olympus.” She looked at me quizzically.

    “It’s the home of the immortal gods. Anyway, I reached the throne room, then a goddess appeared in front of me, and teleported me here. Then I ran into a pink pony with balloons tattooed to her flank. After that, I saw the town and everyone ran in fear. Then I met you and Big Mac.”

    “Wow! Sure seems like you had a busy day.” I nodded in agreement. I noticed that I was walking towards the huge tree house I saw in the distance. 'Holy Crap! That is one *Big** tree! Demeter would love it here.'* After I thought that, I remembered about Artemis.

    “I hope she’s OK.” I said to myself. A look of sadness washed over my face and I felt my eyes redden.

    “Who’s OK sugarcube?” She looked at  me with care and concern in her eyes, which snapped me out of my trance.

   “Just my girl friend. She’s the goddess of the moon.” I spoke with such heart ache I thought I would have a heart attack.

    “Just like Princess Luna…” I heard AJ mutter. ‘Luna?’ I was snapped out of my thoughts when I walked right into a solid oak door.

   “Nice door” I muttered as my head was spinning and I was flat on my back with a finger in the air, then I felt myself get dragged into the tree house.

   “AppleJack! You have to be more careful! There is an evil beast roaming Ponyville!” I heard a strange voice say in fear. At this I leapt to my feet and drew my ice-sword.

    “WHERE IS THIS BEAST!” I looked around and saw a purple pony with crazy colored hair and a compass rose on her flank.

    “Huh, I guess you were talking about me, right?” I asked with an embarrassed smile. Before she could scream, I spoke.

     “Whoa there. No need to panic. I won’t hurt you. I just came from different world and everyone is terrified of me for no reason." This reminds me of that history lesson Chiron gave me a great many years ago. I just hope that these ponies haven't heard of Slavery.”

   “What was that last part?” I heard the purple unicorn with wings speak.

    “Wait! How do you have wings and a horn! Where I’m from, we only have unicorns and pegasi.”

   “Well I’m an Alicorn princess.” I was almost down on my ass laughing.

    “Yeah, and I used to be prince of Greece.” I said as I wiped a tear out of my eye.

    “What I’m serious!” She pleaded.

     “Yeah? So am I. My adopted father is King Philip II of Ancient Greece. My real Dad Is Poseidon, God of the seas. Because of that I can control water. Speaking of which, can I have a drink please?” I asked as I stood up. Once I received my drink, I threw the contents at the Alicorn.

    “What the Buck are you doing!!??” I heard AppleJack yell in anger.

     “Just watch.” I took the water and formed my trident.

      “I knew I could still control water. And not a drop on you. Also, I can never get wet. Cool huh?”

      “S-S-Sure, Can you please put the spear away now?” I noticed that the purple pony, Twilight, was scared half to death.

      “Sorry.” I walked outside and threw the Trident at the nearest cloud. The cloud suddenly disappeared in a flash of a rainbow. I saw the trajectory of the item, and saw it was heading right for a white pony with a purple mane and three diamonds on her flank.

       “SHIT!” I ran as fast as I could. ‘I’m not gonna make it!’ I shouted in my head. 'Wait, they’re all terrified of me, right? Time to test it.' “RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!! THE BEAST IS COMING!” I yelled at the top of my lungs. As soon as every pony in the town heard me, they ran for the hills. All except for the white pony who was frozen in fear.

       “And here I thought criminals were terrified of Batman.” I skid to a stop. 'Wait, I can just turn the Trident back to water.’ I face palm. I’m a bloody idiot. I looked at the spear and willed it back to water.

       “AHHHHH! MY BEAUTIFUL MANE!” I almost pissed my pants. The charging pony made me turn and run for my life.

     “RARITY! What in Celestia’s name are you doing?!” I turned and saw a pony with a rainbow coloured mane and tail step in front of the white pony. I slowed to a stop. I was catching my breath when I felt my feet leave the ground.

      “Shit.” I was effortlessly dragged the the drenched pony, whose name is apparently Rarity.

      “HOW DARE YOU RUIN MY PERFECT MANE!” I was dumbstruck.

       “Wait, I can fix this.” I said as I tried to plead with the pissed off pony.

       “HOW!” Her eyes seemed to be like mini nukes going off. I concentrated on the water. The water seemed to just melt away. It all rolled towards her horn. She gasped in surprise as I formed the water into three diamonds just like her cutie mark. She started to whimper for no reason that I could see.

       “Don’t scream again, please.” That’s when all hell broke loose.

        “GET ‘IM!” On instinct, I turned with my bow drawn and a silver arrow in the bow. I smiled thinking maybe I get to see Artemis again. FWAPING! The arrow started to glow, then burst into a bright flash of light. I looked at where it was, only to see a crescent moon instead.

       “It’s the same as Princess Luna’s Cutie Mark!” I turned to the crowd to see them all in awe. But they were looking behind me. I turned only to see a glittering blue shoe flying at my face.

     “Ow.” With that I fell ass first into the dirt.
