(A/N: Hello, everyone! This is my third and last story for this series. I hope you enjoy it! Please review). (By the way, James Star is the main character from the other stories so don't get confused).

Chapter 1: Back at Camp

Point of View:

James Star

"James, time to get up!" my mom called. "You have to get to camp!" I jumped out of bed; I was so excited to get to my favorite place in the world: Camp Half-Blood.

"I'll be there in a second!" I called back. I changed into my Camp Half-Blood T-shirt and wore a pair of blue jeans. I ran to the kitchen and sat down on a wooden chair. In front of me was a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch covered in milk. (I always ate it now because Legolas once stole it). I hungrily ate it as my mom watched the news on the TV. I finished my cereal and placed the bowl into the sink. Then, I went to the bathroom to shower and brush my teeth. After that, I went to my room to pack up. I grabbed my bow, quiver full of arrows, and my daggers, and clothes. I shouldered my pack and was ready to leave. I was so happy that I was going to meet Percy and my friends.

"Mom, I'm going to camp now!" I called.

"Wait at the door!" she said. I put my shoes on and sat down on the stairs. After a minute passed, my mom appeared.

"James, I'm going to miss you," she said, hugging me.

"I'm going to miss you, too," I whispered, hugging her back. She let go and said, "Bye James."
"All right bye," I replied, opening the door. But before I went out, I said, "Mom, remember this. I will always love you, even if I'm not home. Good-bye now." Then, I exited my house and closed the door. I started whistling a song. When I finished, my old friend, Ilios appeared galloping towards me.

"Hello, friend," I greeted with a smile. I hopped on and the horse started galloping away. To mortals, my horse is probably a car, so I'd better stay on the road. When I galloped on to the highway, there was heavy traffic.

"Arghh, come on. Move!" I growled impatiently. Finally, after trying to weave through the cars, I arrived to Camp Half-Blood. I slid off of Ilios and said, "You can go now. Thanks." The horse snorted and galloped away, disappearing in the morning mist. I climbed up the hill and saw Connor on look out duty. He hopped off his look out tree and ran over to me with a crooked, but happy, smile.

"Hi James!" he greeted.

"Hello, Connor," I replied. "Nice to see you again." Connor nodded, "Nice to see you, too. Oh, by the way, wrestling with Clarisse starts soon. You'd better get going."

"How did you know that?" I asked. Connor smiled, "I'm the son of Hermes." I chuckled and shook my head. I started towards my cabin. I saw Peleus and the Golden Fleece. I saw campers training in the arena and satyrs chasing wood nymphs. I looked at the sky, expecting to see Silena Beauregard flying on a pegasus. But then, I remembered she died trying to defend Mount Olympus. My smile vanished from my face; Silena was a great friend of mine who sacrificed her life. I sighed and entered my cabin. There, I saw all my brothers and sisters.

"James!" Jennie yelled with joy. She ran over to me and hugged me. I hugged her back and said, "How are you?"

"Great," she replied, looking at her watch. "It's time to wrestle with Clarisse now. I'll see you in the arena." She exited the cabin along with the other Apollo cabin mates. I dropped my stuff onto my bunk and followed my brothers and sisters. When we arrived at the arena, Clarisse was waiting for us.

"Welcome back to camp, punks. Today, each of you will be wrestling me," she growled.

"Isn't it illegal to hurt girls?" one of my brothers, Joseph asked.

"Big deal. Joseph you're first," Clarisse muttered. Joseph whimpered with fear but walked over to Clarisse. The two kids started wrestling each other, but in a matter of seconds, Joseph was defeated. Joseph limped towards the bench. As he sat down, I teased, "Good job Joseph, you beat your record of one minute and thirty seconds. Now you got one minute and thirty one seconds."

"Shut up!" Joseph muttered.

"James," Clarisse barked, "get up here!" I got off the bench and walked towards her.

"Yes, Clarisse?" I asked.

"Don't act all goody-goody to me, boy. I'm going to beat the crap out of you," she growled. Clarisse charged at me. I side stepped and tripped her. She growled in anger and got back up. Then, she punched me. I grabbed her fist before it hit my face and started twisting her arm. Clarisse growled but it wasn't as strong as before. She was getting hurt.

"Give up?" I asked with a smile. She punched me with her other fist but I grabbed her fist and did the same. Then, she started kicking me. Finally, I let go. Clarisse and I started punching, kicking, and tackling each other. After ten minutes passed, we decided it was a tie and both of us were exhausted and covered in bruises.

"All right, class is dismissed early," she panted. "Everyone get out of here." We all walked away and went to our cabin. Just when I was about to take a nap, Katie Gardner appeared at the doorway.

"James, Chiron wants to see you in the Big House," she said. I nodded, "All right." I exited the cabin and started towards the Big House. I opened the door and saw Chiron and Mr. D playing pinochle.

"Ah, hello James," Chiron greeted. Mr. D waved at me without looking.

"Hello, Chiron," I replied. "What do you need?"

"Grover claimed that he found a half-blood. We need you to find her before monsters attack her," Chiron said, taking out a picture from his pocket. There was a young girl in the picture. She had black hair, brown eyes, and a cute face. I took the picture and put it in my pocket.

"Her name is Kyra. She is located at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Look for her and bring her here," Chiron ordered. I nodded. I wanted to protest that I just wrestled with Clarisse but I didn't say anything. I walked to my cabin and entered.

"All right Jennie, I got a mission for you," I said as I entered.

"What is it?" she asked. "I'll do anything."

"Grover found a half-blood at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Find her and bring her here," I said, handing her the picture of Kyra.

"She's sort of cute," Jennie commented. "I hope she's a daughter of Apollo. Wait, why can't you go?"

"I just wrestled with Clarisse for ten minutes so I'm tired. I'll give you five drachmas if you bring her back," I said, hopping onto my bed.

"All right Amelia, Karen, come with me," Jennie ordered. The three girls grabbed their weapons and went to find the girl Kyra. As they closed the door, I fell asleep.

(A/N: Well, I hope you enjoyed this first chapter. Maybe the next chapter will come tomorrow. Please review).
