The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Chiron smiled at me sympathetically, the way he used to in Latin class, as if to let me know that no matter what my average was, I was his star student. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “I’m sure the boy can learn,” Chiron said. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron closed his eyes as if he were saying a prayer. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Annabeth may be alive,” Chiron said, but I could tell he was having trouble sounding upbeat.

The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “It appears I shall have to reinstate Chiron as activities director.

The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Finally, Chiron pounded his hoof against the marble floor of the pavilion, and everybody fell silent. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “Use it only for emergencies,” Chiron said, “and only against monsters.

Come on. Let’s finish your reports and get back to Chiron.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z The three senior satyrs were there, along with Chiron, who was in wheelchair form.

Chiron said you thought I might be something special.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z I climbed on board the chariot and got into position just as Chiron blew the starting signal. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Chiron ordered a twenty-four/seven guard duty on the hilltop, at least until he could, find an appropriate monster to protect the Fleece. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Chiron galloped into the pavilion first, which was easy for him since he’s a white stallion from the waist down. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Paul Blofis came over, but that was okay because Chiron had manipulated the Mist to convince everyone at Goode High School that I had nothing to do with the band room explosion. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z There is a strange story that the Centaur, Chiron, though immortal, was willing to die for him and that he was allowed to do so. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z Chiron sat back in his wheelchair and stroked his beard. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z “You were green and turning gray when we found you. If it weren’t for Chiron’s “Now, now,” Chiron’s voice said. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron jerked his head toward Mr. D, who was still frowning as Nico talked about how many defense points all the gods had in his game. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z But Chiron did do this and Zeus seems to have accepted him as a substitute. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z “Yes, I suppose I’d better say hello to all you brats. Well, hello. Our activities director, Chiron, says the next capture the flag is Friday. Cabin five presendy holds the laurels.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Then Chiron reminded him that wine was against his restrictions and most of us were underage. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I didn’t like it, but part of me suspected Chiron was right. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z He took it to Chiron, the wise and kindly old Centaur, to bring up in his cave on Mount Pelion, and told him to call the child Aesculapius. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z He shoved the baby into Chiron’s arms and ran for the porch. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Before I even got there I heard Chiron making an announcement. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron gazed at the saltwater spring gurgling in the corner of the room. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I went to archery class, even though I was terrible at it, and it wasn’t the same without Chiron teaching. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “I’m afraid there’s too much to tell,” Chiron said. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z The line would make perfect sense if Chiron went on the quest. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Annabeth and I ran inside, tearing down the hallway to Chiron's apartment. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z He fought them off, but in the fight he accidentally wounded Chiron, who had taken no part in the attack. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z “We thought—Chiron—I mean—” “He’s down at the cabins.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z The wound proved to be incurable and finally Zeus permitted Chiron to die rather than live forever in pain. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z Chiron smiled at me, but he looked tired and strained. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron greeted us at the Big House with hot chocolate and toasted cheese sandwiches. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z For one thing, I wasn’t sure Chiron could do anything about it. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Shrouded demigods, both Greek and Roman, were burned at the campfire, and Chiron asked Nico to oversee the burial rites. Blood of Olympus 2014-10-07T00:00:00Z I knew Chiron’s dad was Kronos, the evil Titan Lord himself. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “This is really not “It is determined,” Chiron announced. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z When I glanced back, Rachel and Chiron were walking together in earnest conversation, like they were discussing funeral arrangements. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Mrs. O’Leary had dug Chiron out of the rubble and rushed him off to camp. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron galloped over with his medical pouch and began working on the pegasus. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z It was going so well, Annabeth and Chiron were talking about adding an entirely new wing of cabins just so they could have enough room. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “I’m afraid that was a pseudonym. You may call me Chiron.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “Perhaps it is for the best,” Chiron mused. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Chiron said we needed to hurry, so I let him give me a ride on his back. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron was right, but it was all we could muster. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z “Unless you want to get skewered by your friends in cabin five. Here—Chiron thought these would fit. You’ll be on border patrol.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “We will certainly set up defenses,” Chiron agreed. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z I wasn’t sure Chiron believed the story Annabeth and I told him. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Chiron knelt, carefully folding his front legs underneath him. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “I didn’t mean to—” Chiron raised his hand. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z “Annabeth,” Chiron said, “perhaps you and Grover would go supervise Tyson and my cousins before they, ah, teach each other too many bad habits?” The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z The ancient mortal drachmas had been silver, Chiron told us, but Olympians never used less than pure gold. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z One of them, however, Chiron, was known everywhere for his goodness and his wisdom. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z She took flight with amazing speed, and Chiron’s arrow whizzed harmlessly past her head. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z There are more moves, more options, more ways to kilL I thought back to Chiron, who’d told me to stay at camp no matter what, and learn to fight. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Chiron’s arrow flew straight between her eyes and she vaporized on the spot, her empty armor clattering to the asphalt Chiron reached for another arrow, but his quiver was empty. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron was waiting for us in his wheelchair. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z She didn’t look at all surprised that Chiron was a centaur. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Come on. Chiron and Mr. D are waiting.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z If I stayed in one place for a whole school year, without Chiron or my friends around to help me, would my mother and I even survive until the next summer? The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron calmly aimed arrow after arrow, taking down a monster with every shot. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Silenus wanted to exile Grover immediately, but Chiron persuaded him to at least hear evidence first, so we told everyone what had happened in the crystal cavern, and what Pan had said. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z “Archery practice is starting, Annabeth. Chiron said to come find you.” The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z The job of the seven demigods aboard the Argo II, Chiron reminded them, was to finish the quest and come back safely. The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z “This must be reported to Olympus,” Chiron murmured. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z In a weird way he reminded me of Chiron sometimes, how he could look at you and actually see your thoughts. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z When we got to the Big House, we found Chiron in his apartment, listening to his favorite 1960s lounge music while he packed his saddlebags. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “It healed the tree,” Chiron said, his voice ragged. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z I thought about what Chiron had told me when I started my quest—that a hero should never harm mortals unless absolutely necessary. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “Fish centaurs. We are the half brothers of Chiron.” The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z “Then Chiron could help us get him to Olympus.” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Three of Chiron’s arrows sprouted from Kampe’s chest, but she just roared louder. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Then I remembered Chiron’s warning that in two thousand years, I might be considered a myth. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “You’ve had enough sorrow for one day. Ask Chiron when you return to camp.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron cantered over and everyone made way for him. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron usually tried to be upbeat and optimistic. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron leaned in and said something to the satyrs. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron saw the jar and his eyes widened. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “But Chiron said the gods can’t take each other’s magic items directly.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “What? But you can’t! You have to come to Camp Half- Blood so Chiron can train you. It’s the only way you can learn to survive.” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “The Chiron from the stories? Trainer of Hercules and all that? Yes, Percy, I am.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “I wish I knew. Chiron and the satyrs, they know, but they won’t tell me. Something is wrong in Olympus, something pretty major. Last time I was there, everything seemed so normal.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron laid his cards on the table, a winning hand he hadn’t gotten to use. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Tyson was still staring at Chiron in amazement. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z She would tend to Chiron until his leg was fully recovered, and keep studying Daedalus’s laptop, which had engrossed her for the last two months. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron picked up a bronze goblet from the snack table. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Spontaneous combustion is a form of harm, Mr. D,” Chiron put in. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron appeared out of the woods, looking grim. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Even if Chiron let me go, by the time I got there, Rachel would’ve been on the plane to St Thomas. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron was learned in the use of herbs and gentle incantations and cooling potions. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z Chiron raised an eyebrow, but he followed me out of earshot. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Then the Titan lord turned his attention bade to Chiron. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Zeus’s master bolt,” Chiron said, getting worked up now. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z A bunch of campers started asking questions, looking about as confused as I was, but Chiron raised his hand for silence. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron lay on a horse-size stretcher by the volleyball pit, a bunch of satyrs standing around him. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “But I drink Chiron’s right It won’t be until the summer. Luke will need time to regain his strength.” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Chiron scraped a hoof on the dirt floor. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Many notables had given Chiron their sons to rear, but of all his pupils the child of dead Coronis was dearest to him. Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes 1942-01-01T00:00:00Z He knocked aside Chiron’s blade and yelled, “RACKl” A blinding white light exploded between the Titan and the centaur. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Percy hoped Chiron would forgive him, but these centaurs weren’t like the Party Ponies he’d met before. The Son of Neptune 2011-10-04T00:00:00Z Chiron nodded, though he looked a bit troubled. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z "Perhaps we should let Percy think about these lines," Chiron said “He needs time—•” “No.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z As we were walking away, I whispered to Chiron, “Quintus seems kind of—” “Mysterious?” The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron was our head trainer at camp, but he’d never shown me anything like that. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I told her I got the feeling Chiron wanted me to stay year-round, to put in more individual training time, but I wasn’t sure that’s what I wanted. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “What better peace offering,” Chiron said, “than to have the son of Poseidon return Zeus’s property?” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “They slowed us down a bit,” Chiron admitted, “but I think they’re intended mostly to keep mortals out. Kronos doesn’t want puny humans getting in the way of his great victory.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Because the gods use heroes as their tools,” Chiron said simply. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Years ago, Chiron had had a prophecy about the next child of the Big Three—Zeus, Poseidon, or Hades—who turned sixteen. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “We must deal with this—” “Silenus,” Chiron cut in. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z I wanted to pulverize them, but I was under strict orders from Chiron never to take my anger out on regular mortals, no matter how obnoxious they were. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “Mr. D,” Chiron sighed, “with all due respect, whose side are you on?” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “Don’t mock me, Prometheus! Those cursed centaurs will be sorry they interfered. I will feed them to the hellhounds, starting with that son of mine—that weakling Chiron.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z I stood at the saltwater spring, rubbing Chiron’s coin in my hand and trying to figure out what to say to my mom. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Annabeth waved to Chiron, who was talking to some centaurs down the block. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z I almost changed my mind about telling Chiron, but I didn’t. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z It was almost enough to make me want to tell Chiron, but I didn’t. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z The best Chiron could figure, she had kept aging while in tree form, but much more slowly. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “Ah, dear, about that... 'I got a message from Chiron last night.” The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Chiron’s tone was steely calm, the way he gets when he's really angry. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Well done, Frank Zhang,” Leo said dryly, doing his impression of Chiron the centaur. The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z “Now,” Chiron continued, “if you please, counselors. Percy has brought something I think you should hear. Percy—the Great Prophecy.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “I’m just a kid, Chiron,” I said miserably. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “Chiron,” I said, “you don’t have any ideas about the monster?” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I hadn’t thought about those old ladies in a long time, but as soon as Chiron mentioned them, something clicked. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “Percy,” Chiron said, “we didn’t want to tell you until you returned to camp. You needed a break with your . . . mortal friends.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron cantered up to the front and stood next to them. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z At announcement time, Chiron stepped forward and raised his goblet. Blood of Olympus 2014-10-07T00:00:00Z We landed in the middle of the cabin area and were immediately met by Chiron, the potbellied satyr Silenus, and a couple of Apollo cabin archers. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Zoe would want me to ask about Artemis, but Chiron had told us the monster was even more important. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Even Chiron the centaur was dressed for war. The House of Hades 2013-10-08T00:00:00Z Something had occurred to me when Chiron talked about my mother’s fate, as if he were intentionally avoiding the word death. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “I vote no as well,” Chiron put in. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z I wanted to ask what few things, but just then Chiron clip-clopped into the arena. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Th e next morning, Chiron moved me to cabin three. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “I didn’t tell you that story so you could apply. It’s dangerous. Chiron, tell her.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron and Annabeth exchanged looks, like they knew something I didn’t. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Who are you, Chiron? Who ... who am I?” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “Please,” I said, “what is this place? What am I doing here? Mr. Brun—Chiron—why would you go to Yancy Academy just to teach me?” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron looked a lot better now that Apollo had worked some medical magic on him. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron said, “The woods are stocked, if you care to try your luck, but go armed.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Just as he was about to give up, a strange face hovered over him—a man who looked like Chiron, their trainer back at Camp Half-Blood. The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z She kept glancing resentfully at Chiron, like she couldn’t believe he was making her do this. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z When I realized what he was saying, I stopped in my tracks. “—assume he is dead,” Chiron said. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z “I’m sorry to say,” Chiron continued, “the other news is less pleasant still. Quintus has disappeared.” The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z I tried to skim through Chiron’s stack of reports as we walked. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Once everyone was eating, Chiron and Grover came over to visit. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron once told me Riptide had brought many people sorrow. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Before I could follow, Chiron caught my arm. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron, escorted by Frank and Hazel, inspected the Roman troops and praised them for their bravery. Blood of Olympus 2014-10-07T00:00:00Z Chiron’s brown beard was shaggier for the winter. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Helping out Chiron while Mr. D is away.” The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Chiron was at the starting line, ready to blow the conch. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Chiron was among the crowd, but his relatives were almost nothing like him. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z We'd all figured they were history now that Tantalus was gone, but completing them did feel like the right thing to do, especially now that Chiron was back and the camp was safe. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “Chiron, you couldn’t have had anything to do with poisoning Thalia's tree!” The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Chiron told me the camp grew a nice crop for export to New York restaurants and Mount Olympus. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z When everybody had returned to their seats and finished eating their meals, Chiron pounded his hoof again for our attention. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z He’d been offered a place at the Hermes table, and even at the head table with Chiron, but he had refused. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z This year, with Chiron putting all the satyrs on emergency duty to find half-bloods, Grover hadn’t been able to continue his search. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I kept walking, trying to stay clear of Chiron’s hooves. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z After suffering through a few songs, he muttered something about how even pinochle with Chiron had been more exciting than this. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Chiron turned to his left, where the satyr Grover Underwood sat in silence, fingering his reed pipes. Blood of Olympus 2014-10-07T00:00:00Z Chiron tried to teach me archery, but we found out pretty quick I wasn't any good with a bow and arrow. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron stood by the porch, talking to Hermes and a woman holding a baby. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Chiron,” I said, “what about Grover and Tyson? Do you think—” “I don’t know, my boy.” The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z “You train heroes, the same way Chiron does?” The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z I thought “too overboard” pretty much summed up the Party Ponies, but Chiron cantered off, leaving Annabeth and me alone. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “It would be suicide, but you could, with Mr. D’s or Chiron’s permission. But they wouldn’t give permission until the end of the summer session unless . . .” “Unless?” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “The sword has a long and tragic history that we need not go into,” Chiron told me. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z But the look in Chiron’s eyes made it clear he wasn’t going to take no for an answer. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron informed us that the Party Ponies had sent chapters from almost every state in the Union: forty from California, two from Rhode Island, thirty from Illinois . The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “Come along, Percy,” Chiron said, his lighthearted tone now a little forced. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron trotted up next to us, a bow in his hand, his face grim. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron ruffled her hair and gave her a kindly smile. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Leo decided he didn’t look so much like Chiron. The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z “So young,” Chiron sighed, his hands on the rail of the front porch. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Chiron galloped up and down their ranks, shouting encouragement to stand tough and think about victory and root beer, but I figured any second they would panic and run. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron said the coins might come in handy for nonmortal transactions—whatever that meant. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron sighed and knelt on his horse legs. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I wondered how Chiron was going to get up there, being half horse and all, but he didn’t try. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Chiron had just smiled, like he knew this day would come. The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z Camp Half-Blood was in serious trouble and Chiron had told me not to do anything about it. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “You said your name was Chiron. Are you really .. .” He smiled down at me. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Down at the archery fields, Chiron was conducting target practice. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z My morning chore was to sort through reports for Chiron. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z It looked like a pretty good setup, but Chiron muttered next to me, “It isn’t enough.” The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z Hearing Luke call Chiron his son was weird enough, but Kronos put contempt in his voice, like son was the worst word he could think of. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z Then he had failed to stop a giant shrimp attack on the Argo II. Then the ichthyocentaurs, Chiron’s brothers, hadn’t even wanted to meet him. The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z When Annabeth, Chiron, and I came in, though, it looked more like a shouting match. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z When I asked him where Clarisse was he said, “Went on a quest for Chiron. Top secret!” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z As Annabeth hung in the air, descending hand over hand with the ladder swinging wildly, she thanked Chiron for all those years of training on the climbing course at Camp Half-Blood. The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z Chiron, Jason’s mentor at Camp Half-Blood, had assumed that meant that the giants would try to rouse the earth goddess at the original Mount Olympus. Blood of Olympus 2014-10-07T00:00:00Z “Hades sent a minion to steal the master bolt,” Chiron insisted. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z I rode on Chiron’s bade, but we didn’t talk much, especially not about Kronos. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z Mr. D, the camp director, and Chiron were playing a quiet game of cards in the parlor. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I didn’t know if Chiron meant it that way, but the look in his eyes made me scared to ask. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z I felt a twinge of annoyance because Chiron rarely gave anyone a ride, and never a mortal. The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z My jaw dropped, but Chiron hardly looked up. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron fished a golden drachma out of his pouch, tossed it through the mist, and muttered, “O Iris, Goddess of the Rainbow, show us the threat.” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z “I... I don’t know, exactly. About three in the morning she came to the Big House and demanded to talk to Chiron. She looked really panicked.” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “But we don’t have enough—” “It is a tradition,” Chiron said. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z Chiron ducked as a plate flew over his head and shattered somewhere out of sight. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z “A hellhound got into the forest,” Chiron continued. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron paused, as if the question intrigued him. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z “I. . . well, finally Chiron came out in his pajamas and his horse tail in curlers and—” “He wears curlers in his tail?” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “Calm down, my young satyr,” Chiron said, frowning. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “Now,” Chiron said to Thalia and me, “perhaps you two should sit down and tell us the whole story.” The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z The place felt so sad and lonely, I was glad when Chiron put his hand on my shoulder and said, “Come along, Percy.” The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z We pushed them for several blocks until Chiron yelled, “HOLD! On your promise, HOLD!” The Last Olympian 2009-05-05T00:00:00Z They were strange antiques to him, like his mom’s turntable or his teacher Chiron’s Frank Sinatra cassette tapes. The Son of Neptune 2011-10-04T00:00:00Z Chiron pointed to an outdoor pavilion framed in white Grecian columns on a hill overlooking the sea. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z Chiron was like a second father to her. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z I didn’t show up for dinner that night, which was a mistake, because Chiron and Grover came looking for me. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z “The Nereid said Chiron’s brothers were there, and they’d want to hear about that aquarium in Atlanta. I don’t know what she meant, but...” The Mark of Athena 2012-10-02T00:00:00Z Chiron and Quintus stood at the front by the weapon racks. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z It was a boarding school in Brooklyn, and she and Thalia were both attending, close enough to Camp Half-Blood that Chiron could help if they got in any trouble. The Titan's Curse 2007-05-11T00:00:00Z It was all too much, especially the fact that I seemed to be included in Chiron’s we, as if I were part of some dub. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z The next morning, after the party ponies headed bade to Florida, Chiron made a surprise announcement: the chariot races would go ahead as scheduled. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z I knew it had been difficult for Chiron to tell me. The Sea of Monsters 2006-04-01T00:00:00Z I met his eyes, and I knew Chiron had guessed about Calypso. The Battle of the Labyrinth 2008-05-06T00:00:00Z “A Fury came after Percy,” Chiron reminded him. The Lightning Thief 2005-07-01T00:00:00Z She had gotten clean by then, but there was no reconciliation like the one that plays out in the movie between Chiron, the main character, and his mother.
