"D-Dad?" Chloe was staring at her hand, the veins were dark green as they pulsed. "D-Dad.. what is happening? H-Help me?"
☼ This would not take more than a glance to recognize the issue- and already the mortal was cringing. Though he tried to keep calm, hand starting to shake, as he damned mortal emotions, this one fear. “You must remain calm,” he would start, though he would swallow hard. “-All of my children have some of my traits. One or two are strong but with time, you are able to gain them all if you wish. I fear, however, you must have gained my plague. And to inform first, is two points: first, this is a power that is not only hard to control, but is also very deadly to anyone around you. The second, is that this power is strongly emotional. Anger, hate, fear; all negative ones, will make this take over your body and destroy everything it can. There are only three of you that use this on a regular basis. Though if this is new, this must be your newly found second ability.”
Though, there was more complication than this. Though more rare, this part of his power was part of why there was not more older Demigods. For centuries, he had roamed around, searching for someone he could best attach to, though still has failed. Though the consequences were growing. Not all of the Demigods were killed by monsters. “Welcome to the plague, Chloe.” Though the man, now a mortal boy, would sigh. Had he been his normal self, this would be a moment that he would possibly feel tired and aged.
“If I were myself, I could fix it myself. I would absorb it from you and take it myself. However, even Noisoi affect me in this state, and I still lack much of my power. And it would only keep returning to you, and far more violently. Unfortunately, Chloe, I fear you will to bear through it, so that you can grow immune. And stay away from the others, as well.”
Though he did not let her hand go as he said this, very much risking potential to gain sickness in this state. “This all here, is still your blood. But it is infected. Every few centuries, I must release the poisonous toxins to the mortals. Otherwise, it will take over my own mind and willpower and decimate the human and animal races alike. I fear, you have developed similar. However. The best way to prevent it is sending small amounts, colds, flu’s, seasonal sicknesses to keep your body stabilized. However, this first time, you are more or less on your own. Like any other infection problem, you will have to bear through this bout, and will be awhile before you heal to normality. However, the veins will occasionally turn to this state. Thus is when you would release. Simply by touch, as all regular illnesses.”
Though he would smile some. “I can at least, have Will assist me in providing soups and passion relief, and we can set a bed in the woods. You will likely gave delirium, and we cannot risk scaring or harming the other campers. Eventually, your body will once more stabilize. Until then, cabin seven and myself will just have to help from a safe distance-and the rest will be all yours.” But the way he said this, he hopes, meant that he was definitely not leaving her alone of the matter.
