~My first Story, please don't be harsh well not extremely anyways. This story is about a Trojan Camp Half-blood. The main character is a demigod by the name of Lake Daniels. At the moment I have no plans for Lake and his friends to encounter the demigods you're familiar with but it's yet to be known if this will change or not.~

Thanks, mythgirl100ad

The great city of Troy, fell by the Greeks, only Aeneas was able to flee. He fled to Italy, where he formed the great empire of Rome. But was that really all that became of Troy?

The trap quickly enclosed around its victim, giving it a slow, painful death. A young man took a step back, writing down in the journal what he had just observed. "Venus Flytraps, they're so awesome," he muttered, scribbling down something about the reaction time.

A man's voice came from the other side of the room, "But they don't really attract any young ladies will they Lake?" He came over to Lake, setting down a pretty flowering plant.

Lake sighed, "I don't really care what girls think dad, Venus Flytraps are cool, I wish they were so much bigger."

Lake's dad frowned, "Be careful what you wish for Lake, it might come true."

Lake laughed, "Yeah, sure dad. Giant Flytraps, like that's going to happen." Lake picked up his journal, walking out of the green house and towards their house slash flower shop slash plant mutation lab.

It was an old brick building in the center of Austin, Texas. It was always hot, except in winter, when it snowed till it covered your knees. Lake was happy under the spring sun, walking through the back door of the house. He walked up the back stairs and into his room, falling asleep on the bed. Only to go to school tomorrow.

Lake was sitting in the chair, waiting for the teacher to call the rest of the names. He was scribbling different types of leaves on a piece of scrap paper. His eyes kept darting to where two "tutors" were sitting.

They were a pair of tall, red-headed twin boys who were so-called tutors that the school had hired. They didn't really do any tutoring. They mostly beat up kids in the hallway and stared for long periods of time at different kids every day. Lake was guessing it was his turn to be stared at, since their dark brown eyes were trained on him, boring in the back of his neck.

For the rest of day, Lake was the center of the boy's attention. And at lunch he took a break for it, racing out to the cafeteria and sticking in the corner as always. He tried to eat his lunch in peace, keeping his head down. Of course, luck always runs out on those who need it the most.

"Hey Daniels! You got a moment!" It was more a demand then a question. The two boys didn't wait for an answer, sitting opposite from him.

Lake looked up at them, "What do you want?"

One of them pulled out a picture and handed it to him, "What's that Daniels?"

Lake looked at it. He looked back at him, "That's the Trojan Horse stupid."

They smiled, which was pretty creepy. They showed him another picture, asking another question.

"Troy?"

"Zeus."

"Poseidon."

"Athena."

"Paris and Helen."

"This is getting…fine that's Achilles."

After a few more questions the brothers smiled at one another. "Well Lake, one more question." The slightly taller of the two, reached under the table and slowly pulled something out. It was a long silver dagger with a black handle, "Can you see this?" they said rather calmly.

Lake started freaking out, "Of course I can! Do you two realize you brought a knife to school! You're going to be expelled!"

The two brothers smiled, "I do believe it's time for a proper introduction," the shorter one said, "My name is Kyle, son of Ares, and this is my brother, Kevin, also son of Ares."

Lake started laughing, "Yeah, that's really funny, and my daddy is Zeus!"

Kyle and Kevin didn't look very amused, "Isn't funny kid, I'll tell you right now your dad's not Zeus, considering the fact your real dad works in a flower shop. Your mom is a goddess."

"Yeah and so is my underwear!"

Kevin put the knife away, slamming his hands on the table, "Listen up now, genius. Our oracle learned there was a demi-god kid in this town. They sent us out here to find you."

"Oh yes, and the sky's neon green now."

"Your mom is a goddess, we don't know who yet but she is one. Got that?" Kyle said, "You have to come back with us to camp."

Lake shook his head, "No."

The two brothers exchanged a final glance, Kevin handing him the dagger, "Keep this and think about it. If you decide for the better meet us at the bus stop near you house Saturday morning. Until then, be careful. Your smell is stronger now."
