Chapter 1: Rotten Tuna Fish Sandwiches and Flying Bird Things
Bella's POV:
Hello, my name is- wait, that's not how I should start this story. What up reader! No, that's even worse! Oh what the heck, my name is Bella Ross (or was- you will understand when you get to that part), I'm 15, and this is the story of how my life changed forever…
000000
Another day at my boring school for the 'Special Kids'. I was sitting in my pre-calculus class, wondering when I'm ever going to use a^2+b^2= c^2 in my life? Did I even get that right? Did I mix up the c and the b? Dyslexia strikes again! I am surprised I am passing this class with a B- average! I am smart for a dyslexic person, but not as smart as McKenzie Jenkins, why is she even in this school?! She is not dyslexic, blind, deaf or suffers from ADHD, how did she even apply? Oh course she is the smartest girl in the school. She is smart, snotty, and a snob. She always tries to make us kids, who actually need to go to this school, feel bad about them. My life is such a drag sometimes; it gets worse and worse by the minute. It's bad enough that both of my parents died and I have to live with a woman who doesn't care for me at all (her name is Brenda). I have no idea what my parents even look like. Well, I have dark brunette hair gray eyes, and fair skin. Do I look like my mom, or my dad, or a mix? I guess I'll never know.
After a while, the bell rang. Finally this dreaded class ended and I rushed to my favorite class in the whole world, Ancient History! I know, it doesn't seem that I would be the person who would pay attention in this class and sit still (did I mention I have ADHD too?), but I love it. The topic is so interesting because we are learning about Ancient Greece for the year, and we have an awesome teacher! Mr. Brunner might be in a wheelchair and in his mid-50s, but he understands us kids with these problems, like me. Also, my highest grade is in this class, a 98%!
"That is how Kronos defeated his father, Ouranos." He concluded.
For some odd reason, I like this story. Kronos defeated his father because his mother, Gaea, wanted revenge on him. He used a scythe fashioned by his mother and sliced Ouranos in thousands-no, millions of pieces and Kronos claimed ruler of the universe! If only I can do that to McKenzie Jenkins. Just then I realized I slowly started to raise my hand.
"Mr. Brunner, when Kronos defeated Ouranos, he was the good guy. How did he become the bad guy later on?" I asked.
"Good question Bella, when Kronos married Rhea, they had children. But he thought of his own children as threats. Therefore, he imprisoned all five of them by swallowing them alive. Rhea pleaded to spare the children, but Kronos and his selfish ways refused." Mr. Brunner explained.
"So, then Zeus was born and somehow made Kronos hurl out the other five kids?" I implied. Mr. Brunner smiled at me and made a light chuckle.
"It looks like someone read ahead in the textbook." He said.
Great, now I sound like a nerd.
"Let me elaborate with that statement. Zeus was secretly born on Mount Ida. Rhea gave Kronos a stone to eat, deceiving him on thinking that the stone was Zeus. When Zeus grew up into adulthood, he infiltrated his father's palace on Mount Othrys and poisoned Kronos' drink, making him disgorge Demeter, Hades, Hera, Hestia and Poseidon, the five children who Kronos swallowed. Once they were out, they declared war on the Titans and eventually triumphed in the conquest Titanomachy where Kronos' followers were banished and Kronos was chopped into thousand pieces by the same scythe he defeated Ouranos with by Zeus." Mr. Brunner concluded.
Suddenly, the bell rang for lunch. I really didn't want to leave…but… I WAS HUNGRY! When I went outside to the lunch grounds, I made a B-Line to the big cherry blossom tree that was on a small hill. I usually sit here all by myself. I sat against the trunk of the tree and opened the lunch box. I groaned at what was in there. Another day, another rotten tuna fish sandwich. Brenda really must not care enough for me to actually pack me a healthy lunch. First of all, I have tuna, and second, she could at least put the thing in a bag so it didn't infect my bag with a rotten smell and ruin the rest of the food which was a perfectly good apple. A few pigeons came by and I gave them a chunk of the sandwich, but they fled with horror.
"I guess animals can't even stand Brenda's cooking." I said to myself.
I let out a big sigh and just threw the sandwich in the distance. Since nothing else in my lunchbox was edible, I took out my MP3 Player, hooked on my headphones, wrapped my arms around my knees and sat against the trunk of the cherry blossom trees. I scrolled through my playlist looking for a song to listen to, but I have no good songs. I decided to listen to some Owl City. Then, after I was settled, I started to think about what my parents were like. Does my mom have dark brunette hair? Do I have my dad's gray eyes?
"At least I have something of you guys." I said to myself, looking at my aquamarine necklace. Then I started to think about my parents. Who are they? What do they look like? All of these questions flew around my head, but suddenly, I heard my names being called. It was Aaron Holt, my best friend since the 6th grade.
"Hey, what's up Bella?" he asked.
"Nothing much, just sitting here, listening to music, thinking, throwing rotten tuna fish sandwiches around, the usual." I said, he laughed at that part.
He sat right by me and took one of the headphones that was in my ear and stuck it in his ear.
"It looks like your mom gave you rotten fish for lunch." He said.
"Like I can call her my mom! I can't even call her step mom." I said. You have no idea how much I hate her!
"Here, take half of my peanut butter sandwich." Aaron offered.
"Thanks!" I said, taking the sandwich and devouring it.
"You must be hungry." Aaron laughed.
I then realized how un-lady like I was acting, heck, I'm never lady like! In front of Aaron, I don't care, we are best friends!
"Oh, I really haven't eaten good food in days, plus, I love peanut butter." I said. It's true, Brenda sucks at cooking and I love peanut butter.
"No problem, you are my friend. I can share anything with you." He said.
Just then, I stopped eating and stared at his gray eyes, he has dyslexia too.
"Same goes to you. But, I always wondered this, how come you aren't friends with any of the guys?" I asked with my mouth full of food.
"Well, all of the guys are big jerks and the girls are plain weird, you are my only friend." Aaron stated.
I literally laughed at that statement, just then, the lunch bell rang.
"Let's get to class." Aaron said as he held out his hand,
I grabbed it with a light grip, but he gripped my hand tightly, yet gently.
00000000
We walk into Mr. Brunner's class and the assignment on the board was to write a poem about the Trojan Was. Luckily, it was a partner assignment, so I knew exactly who to partner with; Aaron! He is really good at poetry and music. Plus, I am his only friend at this school. We sat next to each other and started to list ideas about the poem. Before we knew it, class was over, and so was the school day.
Aaron and I decided to walk home together. While we were walking, we heard a screech, at first we thought it was the wind, but then we started to think a little. The wind can't make that noise, then what did? Just then a weird winged creature came hurdling towards me.
"Ack!" I screamed as the talons of the creature sunk into my shoulder and pinned me to the ground.
"Die, demigod! DIE!" said the weird creature.
"Hang in there Bella! I'm coming!" Aaron said as he hurdled towards the creature with a stick.
Aaron charged at the thing with a stick, but the creature flicked Aaron across the road like a bug.
"Stop in the name of Zeus!" said a very familiar voice.
I managed to glance at whose voice it was, and then I saw a wheel chair and a familiar beard. MR. BRUNNER?! What the heck is he doing here? He'll get hurt by this thing that was starting to dig it's talons in my shoulders, that's gonna leave a mark.
"Percy, Annabeth! Defeat the fury, I will get the children." Mr. Brunner commanded.
The one called Percy charged at the monster with his sword and the monster released me and pulled all of its attention to Percy. Aaron then ran towards me and helped me up. We both, unable to move, stared at the action. The blonde haired girl, Annabeth, used the dagger to finish off the monster. Just as things were over, Mr. Brunner glanced at us and said,
"We must get them to safety, now!" he yelled with worry.
Just as I was about to say something, I just saw black and black only…
0000000000000000000000000000
"Bella, wake up. Come on Bella, wake up!" said a voice, Aarons voice.
"Huh? Oh, thank god it you. I had the craziest dream! You and I were walking home from school when a giant human bird thing tries to kill me and Mr. Brunner was there and these two teenagers named Percy and Annabeth killed the thing!" I yelled.
"Bella, that wasn't a dream." Aaron said.
"What do you mean; this can't be real, can it?" I asked.
"Bella, you and I were attacked by a weird creature; I too passed out, but only for a day. You on the other hand, were out for a day and a half." Aaron said.
"Where are we?" I asked.
"We are in the infirmary, so we could heal you." Said a familiar voice, it was that Percy kid!
"You! You killed that thing! What the heck was that?!" there I go, babbling like an idiot.
"That thing was a fury, a winged creature." A blonde haired girl said, Annabeth.
"Why did it attack us?!" I asked.
"Because you are a demigod." Percy simply said.
"A what?!" Aaron and I said in unison.
"A demigod, half mortal, half god." Percy explained.
"No way!" Aaron exclaimed as if it was a cool thing. As for me, I didn't really take it too well.
"No, this is not real; this is just one big dream! I am going crazy, that's all! I need to go to a mental hospital." I noted.
I tried to deny anything they said about demigods, monsters and gods. This is not possible, none of this is true! You know what, if I walk out of this so called infirmary, I will wake up out of this crazy dream and then go to a mental hospital so they can tie me down so I don't go crazy. But when I got up, I groaned in pain. My shoulders were in bandages and in serious pain.
"Take it easy, you are still weak from that battle." Annabeth said as she helped me back on the bed.
"I can't believe this right now." I groaned. This is driving me crazy!
"I am freaking out!" Aaron added. At least he agrees with me.
"This is so cool!" Aaron unfortunately finished.
"UGH!" I groaned. He is clearly not cooperating here.
"Look, I know this is a lot to comprehend, but it is cool to be a demigod." Percy said.
That's it, I can't take it anymore. I rose up from the bed and walked out the door. Annabeth, Percy and Aaron came after me.
"Bella, come on, it is not entirely that bad." I heard Annabeth say.
"Lalalalalalalalalala!" I said as I stuck my fingers in my ears so I couldn't hear them.
When I went outside, I saw Mr. Brunner… WITH A HORSE'S BODY?! That's it, I am going nuts.
"Well, hello there Bella, I see you woke up." That's all Mr. Brunner said.
"Wha!" I screamed.
"Not the reaction I was looking for." Mr. Brunner stated.
"M-Mr. B-Brunner! What the heck is going on here?!" I asked.
"Oh this? I am a centaur, and Mr. Brunner is just a cover up name, my actual name is Chiron." Mr. Brunner or Chiron or whatever his name is said.
"That's it I am going crazy!" I said and I stormed towards the exit.
"You are a demigod and you have to accept it." Percy said.
"Look, I am going home to my step mother and forget I ever met you two and t-that thing that just attacked us!" I said as I headed toward the exit.
When I reached the exit, I was stopped by a freakishly large man.
"Oh, hello. If you'll excuse me I will just be on my way." I said as I tried to get through. But he stopped me. This guy is freaking me out, well, his eyes were, and he doesn't just have two.
"You know what, I will just stay and get used to all the crazies and get used to the fact that I am a freak!" I yelled and then I stormed back to the infirmary.
Third Person POV:
"It looks like someone doesn't like the fact she is a demigod." Annabeth stated.
"It is going to take her sometime to get used to the whole demigod thing." Chiron said.
"I don't know why she is freaked out about this." Aaron said. According to him, all of this was the best thing that ever happened to him.
"I was acting just like her when I figured out I was also a demigod." Percy said, and then he laughed a little. "I will never forget that day, being attacked by my own literature teacher, Mrs. Dodds." Percy noted.
"But, now you love to be a demigod, demigods are special, sadly Bella doesn't know that. She thinks that she is a freak and not a powerful hero." Annabeth said.
Everyone looked at their feet, trying to think of a way to make Bella happy about this. Annabeth perked her head up.
"I got it! I am going to have a little talk with her." She suggested.
"Um, I think it's going to take a little more than a talk to change Bella's mind about all of this." Aaron pointed out.
"Urgh, men! I mean some girl to girl talk!" Annabeth explained.
Percy and Aaron just stared, not knowing what she means. Chiron, who knows the campers very well, understood what she meant.
0000000
Bella carefully plopped into bed and tried to fall asleep, as you can see, she wasn't very fond of being a demigod. But, she had to face the music and suck it up. There is only one question that bugs her, who is her godly parent? Was she the daughter of Athena Goddess of Wisdom? Or Ares, God of War. Maybe Hephaestus, God of Fire. That last one sounded pretty cool to Bella, but none of these gods fit her personality, she is not the wisest, not so into war, and she can't shoot fire out of her fingertips. This question is going to annoy her for a while; she won't be able to rest unless she knows. Just then, the door opened; Annabeth entered the room.
"Hey Bella, how are you feeling?" she asked as she sat at the edge of Bella's bed.
"Good I guess, but I want leave here and go back home." Bella said, looking out the window.
"Home? You mean with your foster parent that doesn't care for you at all and doesn't know that you exists?" Annabeth asked.
"Ok, I know it's not paradise, but it's saner than all of this." Bella noted.
"You know, Aaron is actually pretty happy that he is a demigod." Annabeth said.
"Well, he is Aaron! He likes the idea of being supernatural." Bella reminded.
"Take my advice and loosen up a bit. Being a demigod isn't all that bad. To be honest, it's really cool, having powers, train to become a monster killing machine, also, make new friends and be safe." Annabeth told Bella.
Bella smiled a bit, all of this did sound cool.
"Fine, I give in. I will just call Brenda that I am staying at a friend's house for the night." Bella said as she got out her phone.
"NO!" Annabeth yelled as she grabbed Bella's phone and slammed it on the ground. After it hit the ground, Annabeth stomped on the phone really hard, breaking the phone.
"What the heck was that for?! That was the only thing Brenda bought me!" Bella yelled as she picked up of what used to be her cell phone.
"Sorry about that Bella, but phones aren't allowed in camp, monsters will swarm all over camp like bees in a bee hive." Annabeth explained as she helped pick up the pieces with Bella.
"Then how do talk to other people?" Bella asked.
"Landline, the bummer of being a demigod is that you have to give up a cell phone." Annabeth said as she threw away the remaining pieces.
"Well, I can live without it I guess. Plus, I don't think Brenda will be missing me at all." Bella assumed.
"That's the spirit! Now, tonight is a bonfire, so you are coming!" Annabeth exclaimed.
"But-"Bella started but was cut off by Annabeth.
"No buts, you are coming to the bonfire whether you like it or not. See you there." Annabeth said as she walked out the door.

Aaron's POV:
I was looking around the camp with Mr. Bru-, I mean Chiron. Everything looked so cool! To me, I loved the archery area, people shooting arrows at targets; it is so much fun if you try it! I wonder if Bella might like it, I mean, it's pretty awesome. This camp is no ordinary camp, if only I discovered I was a demigod earlier, I could've ditched my old summer camp and come here!
"So Chiron, do demigods actually fight monsters?" I asked. If we do all of this training, what would be use it for?
"Of course Aaron! Demigods train to become stronger and more powerful so we can defeat evil amongst us." Chiron replied.
"Awesome." I said as I admired the archery area.
"It seems you have an eye for archery, is that true?" Chiron asked me.
"Oh, ya, I have been shooting arrows since I was five, I am actually good. I am also part of an Archery Club." I replied.
It's true; I had an eye for archery since I was born! I always wanted to join the Olympics and do archery; it was the only thing I am good at. Since I am dyslexic, I can't do many things, unless I try to conquer over the dyslexic part of me. Bella mastered that part a bit, but I have a feeling that I can't. As I was walking with Chiron, I looked over to my right to see a cabin. The top part of the cabin said something in Greek, but I understood it perfectly, it said "APOLLO". I never really knew any Greek words, heck, I don't even know any! But it seems I can understand it.
"Is anything wrong Aaron?" Chiron asked.
"No, I am just fine." I said; I didn't want him to worry about the whole Greek thing so I decided to keep it to myself. I just wonder, is that normal? I mean, I never really know much Greek, when I looked at the plaque of the cabin, it looked like perfect English! And due to my dyslexia, my reading skills are not that good.
000000000
Chiron showed me around for a bit and then I went back to the infirmary to check on Bella but, she wasn't there. I wonder where she went; she really shouldn't be leaving the infirmary without being healed fully. I walk out of the infirmary and headed over to the archery area, I don't know about you but, I really badly want to shoot an apple off of someone's head! Before starting, I waited for the other campers to leave. I pick up an arrow, making sure that no one sees me and I aim the arrow at the target then shoot, WHOOSH! The arrow soars through the air and BAM! It hits the target.
"You're pretty good, you know that?" said a voice.
I quickly jump back, turn around and hide the bow and arrow behind my back. Then I see a dude with some horns on his head and goat feet. Then I tried to explain.
"I-I am s-sorry! I really didn't mean to try the archery area without asking! It looked so tempting to try! I just was tem-"
"Its fine, you don't have to ask to train. But you should really have some armor on before you do something stupid and hurt yourself." Said the goat dude. I look down at my feet, then I notice his, he's a satyr.
"The name's Grover, who are you?" Grover asked.
"My name is Aaron, Aaron Holt. I'm the new camper, well, one of the new campers." I replied.
"You know, you seem like Apollo's kid, you are good at archery, you seem like a cool dude, and you don't look to bad, you actually look like Apollo himself. But, not as handsome as me." Grover teased.
"You really think that I could be the Son of Apollo?" I asked. It could be true, I mean, I'm good at archery, and I like poems, so it has to fit!
"Well, I think so, but you have to be claimed in order to make it official. But, I'm sure you'll be claimed soon." Grover explained.
So you have to be claimed? It's like claiming something you lost from the Lost and Found at school. Well then, that sounds interesting…
