Irene Wright was born from a mortal/witch-woman named Minnie Wright and the underworld primordial, Tartarus. One night, Tartarus was exploring the mortal world and happened to encounter Minnie. When he met her, he fell in love for the first time in his immortal life. Tartarus impressed her with his powers and wooed her to him. Later that night, they made love. The next morning, Tartarus had to leave because of his godly duties. he left Minnie a wealthy fortune of gold and dollars to support herself and the baby. Yes, Tartarus knew that Minnie was Pregnant but, he didn't tell her. After he left, Minnie used the fortune that Tartarus gave her to buy a house and baby supplies. Minnie gave birth nine months later on Oct 5th to a healthy baby girl. She named her Irene. After her stillborn twin sister.
Tartarus often visited Irene on her birthday, since she was his only child. He brought her presents and told her about his job. Irene thought it was just stories. He even once said, "You're the princess of my realm." It was weird to Irene.
Irene had long, black hair, peach skin, and dark red eyes, like lava. Irene grew up to be smart. She had all A's in her class. But, she had a quick temper. One time, she beat a boy student almost to death when the student pushed Irene as a joke. So, it was pretty clear that no student messed with Irene. The only reason she is still in school right now is because of her grades. She has ADHD and dyslexia, but she caught on on her understanding of the Greek language. She translated all of her work in the Greek language to do them.
Irene knew that she was different. But, she couldn't explain why or how. She was stranger than any student in the school. She even swore that she saw a monster one time in the boy's locker room. She wanted to ask her mom at dinner.
It didn't end well.
"Mom, do you think I'm weird?" Irene asked while eating. Her mom stopped in her tracks.
"W-what do you mean?" Minnie asks nervously.
"I think I'm different than most kids."
"Nope, you're the same."
Irene started to growl, "Why are you avoiding the question?"
"I'm not-"
"Yes, you are!" Irene yells. She slams her fists into the table. A bit on the table broke off. Irene didn't seem to notice and continued yelling. "I know I'm different! I'm so different everyone stays away from me! The students, the teachers, and even you! I have no friends! Even my own father left me! And you won't tell me why!" Irene runs into her room angrily. Minnie looks at the floor where Irene stood. It was melted into a pit of lava.
Minnie sighs, she goes to her daughter's room and knocks on the door.
"Irene, I wanna talk to you, your right. I've been keeping a secret from you, " Minnie says sincerely through the door. Irene opens the door to let her mother in. Minnie sits on her daughter's bed and Irene sits next to her. "You're a demigod, your half God, and half mortal. Your father is a God."
Irene shifts uncomfortably, "Is that why he left? To deal with his 'godly duties'?"
Minnie nods, "I first met him 17 years ago, he was amazing. But, he left after we slept together. I know why he knew that I was pregnant with you. He gave me enough money to get you home to raise you in. He-he wanted to see you a lot so, we came to an agreement that he can only see you on your birthday."
Irene gave Minnie a garage of questions, "What are my powers? What god is dad? How does-" Minnie shushed her.
"I don't know, but your dad suggested one place where you can train. It's better than my idea."
"Wait what place were you going for?"
"I'm also a witch. I went to a school called Hogwarts. It's really good. But, I don't think you're ready for that. So you'll go where the demigods go."
"Where?"
"Camp half-blood."
Irene packed her things. If this "Camp half-blood" can help her, then she could give it a try. She doesn't know why her mom wouldn't take her to Hogwarts. Her mom dropped her off near a forest and told her to keep going forward. Minnie drove off and Irene waved goodbye. Irene walked forward and then saw a camp. She ran to the camp, but something big and black jumped in her path. It looked like a monstrous hound.
Irene grabbed a big stick and swung it at the hound. It dodged and pounced on Irene pinning her to the ground. Irene used the stick to push back the hound between his jaws. Irene screams in anger and her hands glowed red. Fire shot out of her hands and went at the dog. It whimpered before turning into golden dust.
Irene pants deeply, she picks herself off the ground and walks into camp. She sees kids running around practicing shooting arrows and sword fighting. One kid with raven black hair and sea green eyes walked up to her. He had tan skin and wore an orange shirt titled "Camp Half-blood."
"Hey, your new right?" He asks. Irene nodded. "I'm Percy Jackson, um… welcome to Camp half-blood."
"I'm Irene Wright, I'm a demigod of… I don't know what exactly," She says.
"That's ok, many demigods here don't know their parents. You could stay in the Apollo or Hermes cabins, but they're full. Many demigods came here last summer and more is coming now. So, you'll have to be in my cabin since I'm the one with the most space."
Irene wondered if sharing a cabin alone with a boy is wrong. She shrugs, "Sure."
Irene followed Percy to his cabin. It was blue with painted ocean waves around it.
"Anyone else in here?" Irene asks.
"My brother Tyson, but he's away. Place your stuff here," he pointed to an empty bed with a blue blanket. "We have lunch today, so you can sit at my table."
Irene places her bag on the empty bed, she then follows Percy out of the front door. She walks over to the food area. She sits at an empty table with Percy sitting across from her. He gives her an empty golden plate and an empty golden goblet.
"It's magic, just think of the food and drink you want and it'll appear," Percy explained.
Irene pictured her mom's cooking and it appeared on her plate. She also pictured cherry coke in her goblet. She started to eat.
"What's your godly parent?" Irene asks while eating.
"Poseidon, god of the seas. I've had many crazy adventures. My friends and I fought against Kronos and Gaea years back."
"You've fought the King of the Titans and The earth Primordial?" Irene asks.
"Yeah… How do you know about Greek mythology?"
"It was in one of my classes in high school."
"You're still in school? How?"
"I translated my books into the Greek language."
"Wow, wish I've thought of that when I was in school."
Irene continued eating, she wanted to go to bed. She told Percy and he understood. She went back to their cabin and she fell asleep.
"Irene…" a voice whispers.
"Irene...my princess…"
Irene was in a dark place, filled with lava, rocks, and monsters. She looked at a man in black robes with red eyes. He sat on a throne surrounded by monsters.
"Come home, Irene…" he whispers.
Irene wakes up in a cold sweat. Was that her father?
