The son of Chaos chapter 2: How to catch a karpoi

The_son_of_Chaos_chapter_2:_How_to_catch_a_karpoi is the second chapter of the son of Chaos.

The Casino was cool, full of vines and flowers. There was a huge gala full of paintings, the restaurant had everything you wanted. It was fresh which unfortunately meant, that they were a lot of plant spirits.

"You're looking for me, huh," said a voice, call me Herb, part of the rebel team. Come, we have been waiting for you for hours.

"Look, we came here because my mother sent us here, not so that we can make ourselves cozy," said Alex

"Son of Thetis, huh, explains your pendant. We'll pay you some respect but jus for our lives," said Herb

"Okay, your supposed to be a monster so what can you do," asked Prosperina

" Daughter of Persephone, Ah, fine I'll tell you, I'm a demi monster. My father he was a rebel and he married a mortal against monster rights. Ever since, Gaia has been against me. I am the karpoi of herb, I control Herb," said Herb

"Okay, so you were saying something about the pendant," I said trying to change subject

"It's the pedant of water, it was the first gift Poseidon gave to your mother, it represents love in the ocean and so is the most powerful oceanic object in the universe except for of course, Poseidon's trident," replied Herb

Alex raised his hand. The water on the table started to shudder. I heard a hiss then another.

"Let's get out of here, the getaway car is right there," said Herb

We ran out. A karpoi lunged at Alex but water splashed onto his face and he kicked him to the ground. Prosperina, Herb and I ran. Two karpoi blocked our way. Prosperina's hair flower turned into a golden dagger. She picked it out of her blond hair and stabbed the first karpoi. The second karpoi hissed and the girl backed of.

" The karpoi won't listen to you, your bloodline is to far away," said Herb

Again the gods hadn't given me a weapon.

"Another exercise," I thought.

I concentrated on creating something. I dug into reality to make something. Suddenly, I felt wait in my hand. I only had the strength to swing it before I passed out. The last thing I remember was Prosperina summoning roses and thorns and throwing them at them. I fell into a deep sleep.
