CHAPTER 1

Annabeth

I hate my stepmother. She keeps blaming ME for the monster attacks, like I could stop
them if I wanted to. and of course dad has to side with her on everything.

"Annabeth?" I turn towards the door, and my dad is standing there with an apologetic
look on his face. "Yes?" I ask curtly, "we need to talk." Great now I get to be told off by him,
too. I sigh and say "Go ahead." he walks into the room. After a short period of silence he
starts "There's a camp, where people like you can stay." I look at him strangely, and he quickly
says "Demigods, I mean. You'll be safe there and they will train you how to fight the monsters."
He gazes up at the ceiling, "It's what your mother wanted." My mother. The one that left when
I was a baby, the mother that I don't even remember. "You know how Helen feels, maybe its for
the best." "where is it?" I ask, "that's the problem... It's in New York." New York? They want to
ship me halfway across the country to some camp I've never heard of? "You're just trying to get
rid of me aren't you! Did SHE put you up to this?" I shout pointing to the door "It's only for the summer.
then if you like it there you can go again next year. I just want you to be safe." I sighed in defeat "okay,
I guess" "good, I'll let you get packed." he says and he leaves the room.
