NOTE: This is the last chapter that will need to be revised! I can't wait! And after this, I can solely focus on the new chapters! Enjoy~ (Also, for those who have read the old version, I've decided to completely change Jazmin's home life. She now no longer has step-sisters, but the step-mother is still there. And David isn't such a pushover anymore. He's also a professor of ancient history at the University of Texas and he dabbles in crafts- things that Athena likes. But he's still going to be a very minor character.)

"Oh just leave already!"
"Maybe I will!"
"Fine!"
Jazmin Davis was roused from her bed. She groggily looked at her clock. 6:58 am. Time to get moving. She threw her covers back and stretched. Her hair a halo around her head, Jazmin came out of her room. She looked over at her dad. "What happened?"
He looked at her with sad eyes. "Your brother-"
She held up a hand. "Say no more."
Jazmin's adoptive brother Clayton had always had issues. Especially since he had been told about his parents. Years ago, Clay's parents, David's brother and sister-in-law, died. David offered to raise Clay like his own son. Clay hadn't been told until he was fifteen. He was now eighteen and out of high school; so it's not like David could stop him from going.
Jazmin yawned. Clayton came out of his room carrying a duffle bag and glared at David. He stalked out the front door and slammed it shut. Out of the master bedroom came Angelica, David's step-mom. Jazmin had been wondering for as long as she could remember why on Earth David had married her. Something told her that it wasn't for love. Jazmin didn't know why.
"What's going on, Davie?" Jazmin cringed. Angelica loved to talk sweet to David, especially in front of Jazmin. She saw how much Jazmin hated it.
"Clayton left."
"Oh dear." She also liked to feign innocence.
"I'm gonna go shooooooower," said Jazmin as she yawned hugely. She emerged from the bathroom dressed in a shirt that said "book nerd" and shorts. Her hair was down and she was still brushing it. "Where's Angelica?" asked Jazmin of David.
"Showering in the other room."
Jazmin sat down next to David at the kitchen table. He had bags under his eyes and he hadn't touched his morning coffee, which wasn't like him. "What's wrong?"
David sighed heavily. "A lot of things."
"Dad, I have a question for you."
David looked at her with tired eyes. "What is it?"
"Why are you with Angelica?"
"I'll tell you when you're ready."
"No. You've been telling me that for years now."
David smiled wearily. "You're so like your mother." He kissed her on the head. "Go get breakfast. You'll be late for school."

It was lunch the same day. Little did Jazmin know, it would be her last. She was sitting with Grover, as was customary. "I had a really weird dream last night."
"What happened?" They often liked to talk about dreams.
"Well, at first, I was dreaming about something totally stupid. Something about me, fighting with a sword. And then something interrupted it. I was just about get hit by an enemy and then the dream changed."
"Into what?"
"I didn't know at first. The dream-me looked around and saw two women arguing. I don't remember about what exactly, but it ended with them having a contest. A weaving one, if I'm remembering right," said Jazmin. "One of them was blonde; she cursed her challenger. After she did, she turns right at me and tells me to go to you."
"Th-that's odd," said Grover.
%$%$%$%$%$
That night, Grover sent an Iris-message to camp. "I think I've found another half blood."
"So what's the problem?" asked Mr. D.
"Her aura is stronger," said Grover.
"I'll be over there as soon as I can, Grover," said Chiron. "It should be tomorrow. I'll bring Annabeth and Percy with me."
"Sounds good, sir," said Grover. "I'll see you tomorrow."
