"I see…. Have you talked to your father about this?"
"Yup, and he already gave me his blood."
"Well...okay then," Sally said going into the kitchen and bringing out a knife, "how are you going to carry it?"
"Woah mom, what's with the knife?!" Percy asked shocked.
Sally looked confused, "didn't you say you needed my blood?"
"Yeah, but I don't need that," Percy said pointing at the thing, "just sit down and I'll do the rest."
Sally nodded and sat down putting the knife aside. Percy then took one of her hands and using his blood control drew out a long stream of blood from her index finger. Percy then used his ice powers and formed an ice test tube big enough for the blood. He put the blood in there and sealed the test tube shut throwing it into his inventory.
Progress made!
Create your own weapon!
2- The blood of the person/persons you care about the most (Completed)!
"And done," Percy said, "see, no mess."
"That's amazing," Sally said looking at her finger, "how did you do that?"
"Blood is basically 70% water, so I can control it," Percy shrugged, "oh wait let me heal that for you." Percy took his mom's finger and used his healing skill to heal up Sally's wound in a flash of gold.
"Amazing Percy," Sally said looking at her hand, "since when can you do that?"
Percy shrugged, "since two weeks ago."
"What is it? Did Apollo give you a healing power?"
Percy shook his head, "no, not really, besides the only thing that asshole of a God would give is curses to children of Poseidon. Remember the quest to find the Golden Fleece?" Sally nodded, "well in the process I managed to get a power similar to that. It's called healing and it basically allows me to heal any person."
Sally looked at Percy in wonder, "amazing…..so you can heal anything?"
Percy nodded, "pretty much yeah."
Sally eyes' turned to worry, wonder and then finally filled with hope. "Percy….can I ask you for a favour?"
"Mom, come on, you don't need to ask me anything. Just tell me what you need and I'll do it."
Sally nodded and looked at the clock, "it's 6 right now, we just might make it in time."
"Make what in time?" Percy asked as Sally got up and grabbed her hand bag.
"I need you to heal someone for me, Percy. A daughter of my friend, Maria, is very sick. I want you to try and heal her."
Percy blinked, "ah...okay?"
They quickly left the apartment leaving Leo once again with the Castle's. Sally went outside and hailed a cab which took them towards Mount Sinai Hospital. The cab reached the hospital in 20 minutes, something Percy didn't like. He could have ran the distance in seconds, but this just gave him more of an excuse to be with his mom. They entered the hospital and Sally lead them to the third floor to room 322.
Sally slowly pushed the door opened walking into the room, "Maria? Are you here?"
"Sally?" a woman called out, "why are you here?"
Percy walked into the room and saw his mom hugging a latino woman whose face was covered with dried tears. His eyes then roamed the room and fell on the bed in the center. On the bed was a small child, around 9 or 8, with several tubes and wires attached to her. Her face was thin and sulken with no hair on her scalp. Her heart beat was slow but steady and her tiny body was thin to the bones.
"I wanted to see you and Tabitha Maria," Sally explained breaking the hug, "how is she doing?"
"She's well, thank you for asking," Maria said before turning to Percy, "and who is this?"
Sally smiled, "this is Percy, my boy."
Maria smiled as she walked up to Percy, "you have your mother's eyes."
Percy smiled, "thank you ma'am."
"Oh no need to call me ma'am," Maria said, "I'm barely 30."
"Right," Percy nodded.
"How have you been Maria?" Sally asked.
"Okay," Maria nodded to her friends, "Tabitha, she's been...the doctor's say she's getting better. But…. the tumor is still in there. Right now we're not sure," Maria started to tear up again as Sally pulled her into a hug.
"It's okay Maria, it's all going to be fine."
"I pray to God everyday Sally," Maria cried out, "why is he taking my baby from me?"
"I don't know Maria, but I promise Tabitha is going to make it," Sally lead Maria outside, "come let's get you something to eat. You look like you haven't had anything in days."
"But Tabitha-"
"Percy will take care of her," Sally reassured Maria, "I promise nothing will happen to your girl as long as Percy's there."
Maria turned to Percy, "take care of her for me will you?"
Percy nodded giving a weak smiled, "yeah, I promise."
"We'll be back soon Percy," Sally said while giving Percy a look that he understood as, 'work fast Percy.' The two mothers then walked out of the room leaving Percy alone with the dying girl, and she was dying;
Tabitha Alejandro Quanswala Forthaco, Dead girl
Lv- 1
HP: 10/50
MP:0/0
Race- Human
Str-1
Vit-0
Dex-0
Int-1
Wis-1
Luc-0
After being diagnosed with cancer at an early age Tabitha's life has been a living hell. She has rarely held on to her childhood and the only reason she has lived this long is thanks to the amazing doctors she has had and the love and constant support of her mother.
Likes: Cotton candy, the clouds
Dislikes: Cancer, seeing her mother cry
She doesn't know Percy
She is in a lot of pain but can't feel it due to the temporary coma she is in.
Percy could almost feel the sadness and pity pouring out of his heart. It felt like someone had punched into his chest and ripped out his heart. Before Percy would have to simply stand around and do nothing...but now he could do something. He could make an actual difference. Percy didn't know whether his powers could cure cancer, but they do come from the Golden fleece, which brought back Kronos and Thalia, so they should at the very least be able to do this.
Percy bent down and squeezed the little girl's hand, "I don't know whether you can hear me or not, but if you can I just wanted to tell you hold on, I'll make sure the pain goes away."
Percy then began the healing process pouring his mana into the girl.
Ping!
You are attempting to heal somebody with several ailments! Please chose one to heal;
Low bone density
Low metabolism
Low white blood cell count
Cancerous tumors in lung
Cancerous tumors in esophagus
Leukemia
Medically induced coma
Percy then pulled up his healing powers;
Healing, Lv- 1 (90%)
Allows the user to heal any disease or ailments threatening himself or others.
Limit- 1 aliment per use.
Cost- 500 MP
'Okay so if one alimet costs 500 MP then I should be able to all of her ailments easily,' Percy said to himself smiling. He first chose to cure the tumor in her lungs. Percy's hands glowed, lighting up the dull hospital room with a golden light. Percy felt his mana being eaten away, but it was nothing compared to how much he had left.
Percy looked at her heart beat, with the cancer removed from her lungs the girl was breathing better already.
Percy then did the process again and again and again slowly curing every single ailment Tabitha had until only the coma remained. Percy fell down to the chair next to the bed from mana exhaustion. He had just used 3,500 MP in less than a minute. Percy was strong, but that type of strainfull magic took its toll.
