Jason
We sat in a circle. The seven going for a camping trip was a great idea. We needed to take a break from the stuff going on at camp and we were still recovering from the war. The fire burned dimly, giving the area a creepy atmosphere
"Who wanna start with the..." Leo said and took a torch light. "Ghost stories" he said in a very creepy voice.
"I'll do it!" I say, snatching the torch. "This, is an old story...to scare new recruits!....the tale of the Ghost Centurion...." Leo started to hum the haunted melody.
"During the reign of Julius Caesar...there is a Centurion, Avis Caelum. He was a Centurion of the old Twelfth Legion, the mightiest of all. The emperor, Caesar, was afraid that Avis might overthrow him. Avis was known through out Rome and was a very powerful man. He joined the Legion at the age of five and was the only survivor in one war."
The others were now getting interested. Even Leo started to listen-after he stop playing with fire-
"One day...Avis is old already by the way, about 42... the scared emperor sent soldiers to the Centurion's home. They burned him with Greek fire then, still alive, they hammered him to the wall of his home. The soldiers raped his wife and daughter in front of him. They raped her for days. On the last day, they slowly tortured his family and he watched them die. The Centurions was so heart-broken, he told the troops to kill him. Stab his heart. The troops did what he said, but only after killing his family. When Thanatos went to fetch him, the centurion gladly followed but he charmed a fury to let him out of the underworld, once a month."
Percy started to chuckled but Annabeth stopped him by pinching his arm "Oooow!" he groaned in pain
"Continue Jason" Annabeth said. I gladly continued
"On the first day out of the underworld, Avis possessed a guy during the senate meeting and killed the emperor....Now, legend has it that he still comes out once a month and torment Legion troops who have sinned"
Then a skeleton wielding a small Imperial Gold dagger jumped out from behind me
"DIE!!!!!!" it shouted
The others got scared and scampered away. Nico appears out of the shadows.
"I told you it'll be funny" he said, laughing like an idiot. The skeleton broke apart and the bones sank back in the ground.
"Yeah, it was. Now lets find them before monsters find them." I suggested. He nodded-still laughing-and we looked for our missing, scared and terrified friends.
