I'm thirteen. I live with my father and step mother. I'm average intelligence. Wavey silver hair, and black eyes. My name is Leila Colfer.
Saturday started as a normal day. Just lazing around the house. Then my step mom told me to go help , our
neighborhood crazy cat lady with her gardening, and my day went to crap. I drug my feet over to her house. I knocked slowly
and deliberatly. "Who are you?" the crazy boomed. "I've come to help you out with your garden, my name's Leila." I said. She
nodded and smiled, then lead me to her backyard. " You just get started on those tulips, there.." said, then she
started to grow, until she was the size of a big barn. I stared up in shock. The creature she morphed into; a huge half dragon half
woman, with hair like Medusa, and a weird belt/sore/pimple thing on her waist that was bubbling out differernt animals. I started
to gather my wits and run away screaming, but she swooped and picked me up, making me black out from horror.
When I woke up, I was in a hospital. There was a black dressed boy and a Centaur standing over me. They appeared to be
arguing. I suddenly sat up."I was attacked by a crazy old lady and I just saw a Centaur. What the hell is going on?"I stated.
The boy jumped, and the Centaur smiled, "Good, good you're awake! Nico, help her see the orientation film.". The boy, who I
assumed to be Nico, got a pair of crutches and helped me to my feet. "Are you sure you don't need the wheelchair?" he
asked. I accidentally whacked him in the shin,"Oh, I'm really sorry! And no, I think I can walk." I said. Nico dropped the
matter, but kept his distance.
The 30 minute long tape changed my life. I came out, totally shocked.

Sorry, my story kind of sucks so far, but beginnings are difficult, and this is my first, but, trust me, the story does have a good plot!
