Hey guys! Here I will use the characters from my SYOC! Please read and review!
Maya POV
My life is weird. I mean, I'm a daughter of APOLLO, for the gods sake! I'm living in GREEK MYTHOLOGY! Yet, my life is boring. I haven't been offered a quest, but I've been here since I was thirteen, so two years now. Chiron says I'm "Not ready, not yet." He thinks I'm emotionally fragile, which could lead to failure of a quest. The thing is, I am emotionally fragile. I was raised in the spotlight, and I was completely normal, until that day…
FLASHBACK!
It was a normal day, until my performance in Sleeping Beauty [I was Aurora, of course!]. I had just done my final bow, and I went backstage to get my stuff. A supervisor jumped out of nowhere, and said "Leaving so soon, sweetheart? The final act has just begun!" And with that, she grew claws, and her legs became mix-matched. Someone tossed me a rose, and I touched it's smooth surface, knowing it might be the last time I would do so. The monsterous not so supervisor charged! The rose became a red bow and arrow, and I shot blindly. With luck, I hit the monster in the stomach, and it vaporized! I was in utter shock. "Wha-at am-m I?" I said. My mom came in, looking alarmed, and said "Demigod." I was shocked. We drove to the airport and went to Camp Half Blood as fast as my mom could book a JetBlue flight .[It was pretty fast, and I was there in no time.]
Flashback over
I was still shocked, even after two full years! I couldn't help it, it was just so weird! Greek and Roman gods, monsters, prophecies, demigods! It was all real, and I knew that, but it wouldn't stick to my brain. Sometimes, I woke up thinking "Where am I?" then realized where I was, and WHO I was. Why did Apollo have to choose MY mom? Why not some other bright-eyed, cheery-faced 27 year old? I often asked myself that, but then dropped the topic. My mom WAS different from all of those giggly girls. She was just so NICE! She couldn't even hurt a fly, literally, I had 37 flies in my room, but she wouldn't take them out until they died on their own, and even then she CRIED! They were FLIES, for the gods sake! I really wanted a quest, and I had to make myself un-emotionally fragile. I had to prove myself. My rose/bow, Thorn, was on my nightstand, and I picked it up in rose form, thinking about the first time I used it. I had been so scared, so fragile, and even with Thorn to protect me, I still was. That was about to change. I ran out of the Apollo cabin, and into the deep, dark woods behind camp…
Sorry this was short, it had to be for the cliffhanger, and this is my first fanfic! Read and review, I'll try to update soon! Peace out!
