Tumblr Academy reimagined

"You're still Atheist after meeting all of the Greek Gods?" I moved on to a Demeter and Hephaestus.

((Brb dinner))

I glanced around, only now really grasping the situation. I stared back and forth between the two girls, openmouthed with shock as everything sank in.

I laughed. "Aiden sounds like our last prophet before God's sister killed him!" I called. "But you don't have to worry about her, last I heard, my grandfather and his sister are working on getting along." I healed up the last one of them. I looked over at Olivia. "His dad is an Atheist and he met two Norse Gods! Yeah, that's right! I read comic books!"

I laughed uncertainly, feeling like I was going insane. Today has been crazy. Internally I wished I could just wake up in my bed or even in the lap after passing out over experiments with Peter and Shuri (which has happened multiple times before), but I knew that I was awake and this was real. Nic had died in front of me, my powers didn't work here, I was in a universe with the Greek gods, and demons, angels, and God are real. I hoped my journey home wouldn't be like this the entire time.

I took a deep breath. "We need to get to my realm before Azazel lays siege and I can kill him once and for all. The problem is, I have problems flying between realms."

"So how are we supposed to get to your world, then?"

I took a deep breath. "I'm going to have to wait until all my strength returns. It takes so much energy to travel just myself, but taking all of you with me? It will be dangerous."

"How long will that take?" I asked, impatient. I wanted to be able to do something this time, and sitting around wasn't going to accomplish that. "Aren't these guys gods? Do they lack the power to be able to send us all to your world?" I snapped, then flashed back to lessons about Greek mythology in school and instantly prayed I wasn't about to be smitten down.

"I don't know how long it will take, but it could be a while, considering we were just all in battle. I need a pie." I looked around. My human side was starving. "And a cheeseburger, man that sounds so good."

"We built a portal back at camp, maybe with you're magic or whatever you call it Kira you could alter it so it will take us to your universe."

((Keep in mind I'm rushing to get to Nic because I won't have computer access ALL of this week...))
"That sounds faster, can we do it that way?"

"It's called my grace, and yes. Let's." I started heading for the elevator.

I nodded and looked at my dad, he nodded slightly and waved his hand sending us back to CHB. I called his trick vapor traveling and it wasn't exactly my favorite method of traveling, but it was definitely faster than walking all the way back.

"That felt so weird," I mumbled. I willed my nanotech all back into my bracelet as I glanced around. "Where's the portal?"

I quickly led the way to the top of the hill near Thalia's pine tree, "this was the only place we had enough room to build it in."

"Is that it?" I asked, pointing to the large circular metal object. It looked exactly like what my years of watching sci-fi movies had made me expect a portal to look like.

I walked over to it. "How do I power it? By the will of my grace alone?" I looked over at Olivia.

"No, we have a power source." I signaled to the other campers and they turned it on, "It was designed to send each of you home."

"And now you all will follow me to my home? This is gonna be fun. I'll load you up with lots of gear from the bunker."

I looked at her uncertainly. "Should I be nervous? Your tone makes me a little worried about what you consider fun."

I only winked at him in response. "Don't worry, dude, you're going to love my brothers... but not so much my other brothers and sisters. Angels can and will use every dirty trick in the book, believe it or not. Some are good, though. Anyways, let's get this show on the road!"

"Yes, lets," I replied, ready to go do what we needed to. From what she said earlier it sounded like we had a real chance at getting Nic back. I was ready for that.

I was not sure how the portal worked, but I'm sure it had something to do with just running and thinking of where I wanted to go. I closed my eyes and focused my world before rushing forward.

I followed after her uncertainly, leading into the portal, not sure what exactly to expect from the traveling or on the other side.
