At Camp

Clarisse woke up from a terrible nightmare that had been reoccurring for the past few months, ever since she had turned 13. As soon as she got out of bed she knew something was wrong, she went over to her bathroom and looked in the mirror, she turned her head and noticed a strange white triangle on the back of her head and thought "They are so going to notice this when I walk out into camp,"

Because Clarisse didn't live like a normal person, Clarisse was a demigod, she was the daughter of a mortal woman and Ares god of war, but she was different, even among her kind, because the other gods have given her gifts when she was a small child. She had the ability to control water, to shoot perfectly, have a knack for thievery, to control the dead, to always have a winning battle plan, and to control the sky and call down lightning. She was in a cabin all to herself for this reason, with no one for company.

But she just put on her lucky bandana backwards to hide the triangle on her head, grabbed her spear and shield and ran outside.

Almost immediately she ran into a wall because she was so dizzy, she shook her head and hoped no one had seen her, then she ran off towards the sword arena.

As soon as she got there she had to put her hand on the wall to steady herself, one of the kids practicing spotted her with her hand on the wall and walked over.

"Hey, you okay?" he asked.

"Yeah, just a little dizzy, have no idea why though," Clarisse told him.

"You want to sit down?"

"No, I'm good," She said straitening. She walked over to the practice dummys. As soon as she was facing them she counted to three in her head and then she launched into the air and swung her spear around slicing one of the dummies head off and stabbing another in the stomach, then she landed turned and threw her spear with deadly accuracy and he spear went right through its stomach.

She retrieved her spear and walked back over to all the people and called out "Hey anyone up to fight me?"

'Yeah sure I'll do it." One kid called out. It was the kid who had asked if she had been all right earlier. He had blond hair and a bow strapped to his back.

"Alright Will, bring it," She challenged, and in an after thought she said "And no bows,"

"Fine," he said in an exasperated voice. He then dropped his bow and picked up a sword.

One of the campers came up to them and said "3…2…1…fight!" Will chardged her, and she easily dodged, then she turned and caught his strike on her spear turned her hand and his sword clattered out of his hand, her spear tip at his throat.

"You win," he muttered disappointment in his voice. Clarisse threw her spear on the ground and it disappeared and reappeared in her hand in a more compact version, a ballpoint pen, and she stuck it in her pocket.

That's when disaster struck; all of the sudden Clarisse fell to the floor and passed out.

Clarisse woke up in the Big House, and the first thing she saw was Chiron their teacher, that's when all went white and her head jerked back, she heard Chiron yell to some one to go get an Apollo kid but it was like listening to someone through cotton balls, then a camper burst in and faster than anyone could see injected something into her arm and she was out cold.
