2 Gift of Memories and Museum

THE SUNLIGHT STREAMED in from the window, splashing across Damien's face. He groaned and rubbed his eyes, before squinting over to the clock on the wall. 8:32 Time for breakfast. When Damien woke up again, he woke up in a room filled with posters. Posters of his favorite movies almost looked like home.

He swung his legs over the side of the bed, his feet meeting the cold, worn floor. Damien sighed and stood up, stretching to ease the tension in his body. For a Twelve-year-old, he was above average height. He was not monstrous, but tall enough to where his age would get mistaken quite a lot.

(Note: Taller than the average 12 year old)

He looked around the dorm room. It was small, with a desk, a chair in the corner, and some cupboards for clothes. While grabbing some clothes to put on, a massive migraine came and hit Damien causing him to take a knee from the pain.

With the migraine starting to grow more Damien collapsed on the floor, holding his head until the pain subdued a couple of minutes later. With the pain clearing up, Damien stood up "My memories...… my memories coming back must have caused me a massive headache" Damien said.

With his memories merged he said, "I'm a student at Yancy Academy, and friends with Grover and Percy!". Grabbing the clothes he was gonna put on he got dressed.

Looking at the calendar on the wall it had today's date circled, he realized "Oh shit, today's my birthday" Damien said. Looking at his Nightstand there were two small gift-wrapped presents, walking over to them he picked one up and opened it.

Inside the box, a book wrapped around a chain "This must be the Grimoire I wished for" Damien said while putting it around his neck. Damien holding it up to his face confused and inspecting it said "How do I summon the grimoire?" 

Just as he said that, the chain dissipated into gold particles and in a golden burst of light a book appeared. "Whoa this is cool, I wonder how many spells are in this book?" Damien said grabbing the book and opening it. 

Opening the book, Damien saw that only eight pages of the grimoire had spells and only one spell per page. Looking at the spells Damien grinned as they were powerful spells to start out with.

"Let's test out a spell real quick," Damien said while he scrolled through the eight pages to see what was the right spell. "Ok let's try this one on the sixth page," Damien said looking at the pillow on his bed and raising his hand towards it, 'Attract' he thought. And magically the pillow came flying to his hand and he caught it. "Cool," he said throwing the pillow back onto his bed

Willing the grimoire back into its Book and chain form, Damien goes for the other present on the nightstand. Grabbing the other present Damien opens it to find a single gold rind in with a card underneath it.

Grabbing the card it read "Dear, Damien Happy birthday from me to you is a magical short sword named Beagalltach, made from a mixture of celestial bronze and imperial gold with the magical ability to never lose its sharpness and durability. It also can shift into Gáe Buidhe, a cursed spear 1.4 meters long that inflicts wounds that cannot be healed with magic so I recommend only using it against monsters but this form is currently locked. Ps - Even though these weapons aren't Greek they're still strong. Also to bring out the sword just pour some magic into the ring" Signed from R.O.B. 

(Note: may take out the Spear part but idk yet)

Picking up the ring Damien put it on his right hand, pouring magic into the golden band, the ring dissipated into gold dust, and out came the sword. Grabbing the sword and giving it a couple of swings it began to feel familiar as if he had trained with a sword his whole life. 'That supernatural combat mastery wish must have come into effect, I wonder if it will work on my magic ability' Damien thought walking out of his dorm.

"Damien? Y... Damien!" a voice called out. It was Grover. Damien smiled, turning around. There he was, hobbling on his crutches, a smile on his face. "Are you excited for our trip to the museum today?" Grover asked. "Yeah dude, really excited," Damien said.

............…

A little while later Damien and his class finally were at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, during the tour Damien spotted both Percy and Grover. "Percy, Grover how do you guys like the tour" Damien said wrapping his arms around the both of them. "Like the tour? Dude I can't read remember Dyslexia? Wait you also have Dyslexia how are you enjoying this snooze fest?" Percy said unwrapping Damiens hand.

"I just go with the vibe, you know I feel something special gonna happen today," Damien said unwrapping his hand from Grover and walking away. "Huh, what does that mean? Grover what does he mean" Percy asked. "I don't know" Grover said in deep thought.

'Does he know! I know he and Percy are demigods but their no way Damien knows about our world yet. Maybe I need to talk to Chiron' Grover thought looking at Damien and switching his eyes to Chiron aka Mr.Brunner.

In the distance of what just took place, Mrs. Dodds is Glaring at Percy and glances at Damien as he gains more distance from the duo.
