Calypso was walking behind Leo. The same boy who managed to save her from that island. That island… But now she could stay with Leo forever. She would make sure no monster would ever kill him. She became a mortal for him. The sun was low in the sky. It was a long day, especially after school.
They were going to go to the Waystation… before Leo decided to explore the city more. He annoyed Calypso but that's why she loved him. Now they were sneaking through the alleyways. Trying to avoid monsters trudging through town.
Unfortunately, one of the monsters noticed the teens. And that's where it begins.
Calypso had practice running. She liked running. The ex-goddess ran a lot on her island. Leo kept tripping on the mess in the alleys. The monster was approaching. Closer. Closer. Closing in on Leo. Calypso stopped, rubbing back for her boyfriend.
But she was too late. The monster got to him.
Now she would have to tell everyone. Leo died. Would he meet Jason in the Underworld? Calypso hoped he would. Then he wouldn't be alone. Besides, she'd join him… eventually.
“C'mon, Festus! Move you big-” Calypso looked at the dragon. He seemed to notice her sadness. Probably wondering where Leo was. How could she keep on yelling at him when he just lost his creator. Possibly his only friend.
“Calypso?” Somebody approached her from behind. Georgia. How was Calypso going to explain this to her? To her moms? Leo's foster moms. “I have to leave for a while, Georgia. I'll see you soon?” The poor kid. She looked like she was tearing up.
Calypso sighed and hopped onto Festus's back. Once she tells everyone in camp then she'll come back. How could she let this happen to Leo? The only guy who came back. The only guy who could. How would his friends react when they find out? Guess she'll find out soon enough.
