Sup people. I have written other stories so go check those out. Anyway, here's the new story. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: I own a few characters, otherwise they belong to Rick Riordan.
It's the first Friday of summer. I had already eaten breakfast, so I had nothing particular to do.
It was raining outside, so I could either read or listen to music. I decided to listen to music.
After I had listened to a select few songs like five times, I got up and went outside to sit in the rain. It smelled so good.
I was so focused on thinking about summer, that I almost didn't notice someone come up behind me. Almost.
At the last second I tripped them, and flung myself to my feet, arm under their chin.
After I saw their brown hair, I got up.
"Sorry." I mumbled.
"It's okay." Leo said, getting up.
"So, why are you here?" I asked.
"Why were you sitting in the rain? We all have our own questions." He stated. I rolled my eyes.
"Whatever. I was bored so I came outside. You should know not to disturb me." I said matter-of-factly.
"Mom wants you." See we were fostering Leo. It took a while, but he started calling mom, mom.
"Ok. Do you know why?" He just shrugged. He had a look in his eye. He was lying. "You're lying. You know why mom wants to talk to me." He gave me an innocent look. I turned and walked into the house.
I proceeded to the living room, my mom was sitting on the couch, thinking.
"You wanted to see me." I said, rousing her out of my thoughts.
"Oh. Yes. See Leo's going to camp tomorrow right?" I nodded. "You're going to go with him."
"Ok. Is that all?" I asked.
"Not even close." Leo's voice said approaching me. I spun around.
"I thought you said you didn't know what she was talking about?" I stated.
"You knew I was lying, does it matter? Anyway, you know the Greek gods you learn about in school?" I nodded. "They're all real. One of them is your dad. My dad is Hephaestus." By now, he was waiting for my response.
"Interesting." I said. He looked disappointed by my response. "So your camp is for kids who has a parent that is a Greek god and their other parent is a mortal?" He nodded. "I'll go pack."
In all honesty, I didn't know what to pack. I gathered up some brushes, elastics, clothes, that sort of stuff. I didn't know what I needed.
After fifteen minutes of deciding what I needed, packing it, and making sure I had everything, I was done.
After I woke up, got dressed, and ate breakfast, I was ready to leave.
Leo was in no rush.
"Are you done yet?" I kept asking him.
Finally, after a long hour of waiting, maybe it had only been minutes my ADHD gets the best of me, Leo decided to stop torturing me.
"Ok." He said. "Let's go."
After a quick round of 'Goodbye' and 'Be safe' we were outside.
"So, how are we getting there?" Leo got that look in his eyes again.
"Follow me." He said.
We walked into the forest for about ten minutes. We stood there for a second, grasping our surroundings. Then Leo whistled.
I heard a bunch of loud thumps coming towards us. I saw gold glint in the trees.
"Come on out buddy." Leo said, chuckling. "This is Festus." He said, as a dragon came into view.
"Woah. Cool" I said. "Wait. Happy? Really Leo? Happy the dragon. I should expect that from you." He put his hand to his heart, mock hurt.
"Yes. I like Festus. He's a part of me. Let's go." He climbed on, and offered me his hand. I declined, not letting him think I'm weak.
I climbed on and sat in the seat behind him.
Festus took off, and I had to hold onto Leo for a second, despite not wanting to. I practically held on to him really tight for the whole ride.
Finally we landed. Leo was laughing maniacally now. I punched him as hard as I could.
"Not cool. You could have warned me." I pulled my very long hair into a ponytail. Pulled back, it reached my waist.
We hopped off to see five people standing in front of us.
"Leo. Who's this? You're girlfriend?" A boy with dark hair and green eyes, said.
"Ew. No." We said, simultaneously. "We're fostering him. He's like my brother." I said. I shivered just thinking of the thought.
The boy that had teased Leo, was now blushing.
"Sorry." He muttered. Then he put his hand out. "Percy Jackson." He said, as I shook his hand.
A blonde hair with grey eyes said she was Annabeth, Athena's child. A girl with choppy brown hair, and ever-changing eyes, said she was Piper, Aphrodite's child. A kid with dark black hair and brown eyes said he was Nico, Hades' child. Finally a blonde haired boy, who reminded me of myself, said he was Will, Apollo's kid.
"Percy, you're Poseidon's kid, right?" I asked him.
"Yep." He said.
"Well." Leo said. "There are 20 cabins. You'll stay in cabin 11 until further notice. Well we should introduce you to Chiron." Who? I followed the 6 kids to a blue house.
We walked in to a centaur arguing with someone. When they finally noticed us, they one looking at a wine magazine rolled his eyes, and ignored us.
The centaur however trotted over to us. He nodded to Leo.
"I see you got here safely." He turned to me. "You must be Idalia."
"Yeah." I said. My name was interesting.
"I see the sun." Will said. "What it's Greek." He said after a few looks in his direction.
A door opened down a hallway. A girl walked out.
"Hey Chiron." She said walking into the room. She stopped when she saw us.
"Oh, Amara, this is Idalia, she's new. I suppose you also wouldn't know Leo either." Chiron said.
"Hi." She said. I felt she was looking straight at me. She was beautiful. Brown hair, those ever-changing eyes.
"Hi. I suppose you're new to?" She nodded. "At least I'm not the only one. I'm guessing Aphrodite's your mom?" Again, she nodded.
"Yeah. Is your dad Apollo?" She asked.
"Yeah, he hasn't actually said yet." Just then, as if on que, a bright light flashed. I closed my eyes, hoping it would go away. It did, and I opened my eyes.
A teenager that resembled Will stood before us.
"Hello." He said
Hope you liked the chapter. Review please.
