Let me tell you, it's not a pleasant experience to have a sword a centimetre away from your nose. But hey it's not the oddest thing that ever happened to me. I'm Adele Holt AKA, orphan, outsider and the girl with the trident shaped birthmark. Ever since I was a little kid weird things have happened to be. Getting stalked by a rather mean cheerleader, running away from a stampede of rather angry horse-dudes and I won't even mention by encounter with the snake women. At least I think that what the was.
7:00 AM. Find food hour. When you're orphaned and live in a shack, that what you do. Well I wasn't orphaned until I was 11, but I have 2 years of experience, before I fled my home I grabbed my two very needed things , my locket with a picture of my mom in it and my dog Jackie. I try to find food for Jackie more than I do for myself. I through on a pair of ratty old jean and a sweater. I only had I chance to grab a few clothes. I opened the door of the shack and peeked outside; it was a sunny day, good for food finding. But good times don't last.
"Who are you and why are you on property or Mr. Chase?" A confused looking blonde girl and boy who eyes where exactly like mine stood there confused, normal. Besides the fact the boy was holding a bronze sword up to my nose.
"Percy, the sword!" the blonde girl yelled "Seaweed brain!"
"Oops..." Percy said embarrassed. This was owned by someone? It the rattiest thing ever, I thought it was abandoned .The couple; yeah they look like a couple dragged me away be kicking and yelling at them to let me go. More monsters for me to fight with my pocket knife.
"Let me go monsters! I already have enough of them chasing me around!" I yelled. They stopped walking and both looked at me in the eyes, fighting time.
"She could be"
"No..."
"But monsters"
"Hello, explanation please" I said. The girl, Annabeth who's name I figured out in the two's talking took a book out of here jacket, great monster to torture me with reading.
"Can you read this?" she held the book to me.
"I have a name and it's Adele" I snapped.
"Can you read this Adele?" Annabeth rolled her eyes. I looked inside the thing words floated of the pages.
"No, I can't I'm dyslexic" I said with no emotion what so ever. Percy and Annabeth locked eyes. What's next? Percy quickly grabbed my arm and gave be a prick before I could move. It wasn't big, but I was mad.
"Hey!"
"She's one "Percy said. "She's one of us"
