The Cursed Daughter of Love
Chapter One: The Journey
It was a dark night, my father just died.A suicide attempt with the help of a lighting bolt. Oh, how rude of me. My name is Natalie McLean. I know what I am. I'm not normal, but I'm kinda like the normal 15-year-old girl. I walked through the dark streets of Manhattan tears dripping down my face, but all I could think about was how selfish my dad was. With no warning, no hug goodbye, no direction, just a letter, a letter saying how sorry he was. And that is when I snapped, the happy, cheery girl who used to be full of love and happiness just snapped. I screamed at the top of my lungs, as loud as I could. I didn't have anything to lose. I started to run, I didn't know why. And that is where I am now, but I know that my dad left something else, a dagger. I know exactly why so I stuck it in my boot. I silently pray to thank him as I see a dark figure lurking in the shadows, I start to run again, run towards the place I have dreaded... Camp Halfblood. I run, I run as fast as I can, trying to forget the events of tonight, I try to forget the night of my father's death. PLOP PLOP PLOP Rain drops fall one by one on my head and everywhere around me. PLOP PLOP PLOP PLOP They fall faster now, harder too. I run to the street and wave my hand out for the Taxi- They lurch to a stop and I hop right in trying to get away from this darn street. "Long Island Sound Please" I say quietly as I realise it was the first time I have spoken all night. I sit quietly as we reach my destination, I give him a wad of money "You can keep the change, I won't be needing the rest" I say expressionless as I exit the car onto a little plaza with shops and diners that all happen to be closed. I sighed as I walked over to the camp entrance- Oh Gods. By the way I may have left out a minor detail. I'm a daughter of Aphrodite. Goddess of love. I am dreading the time that I have to spend in that awful cabin with all the pink and glitter and girls... I much rather be in the Ares cabin so I could fight freely and maybe if I had a real mom she wouldn't be as selfish as my dad and maybe I would even have to go to this dumb camp. I was disturbed from my thoughts when I heard a faint grunt, a closer one, closer, now I could hear footsteps stomping and hurtling towards me, Oh gods. Minotaur- my least favorite monster, as of right now. I pull the celestial bronze dagger out once again and start to run towards it, I stab it in the leg as hard as I can, Golden Ichor oozes out of his leg quickly. I shriek in surprise as it picks me up and growls. Out of the corner of my eye there are two campers- an attractive boy my age, a girl about 12 years old, and a girl that looked about 14 years old. He looked as angry as Zeus was when Percy "took" his lightning bolt- yes, I'm a daughter of the most airheaded goddess there is and I know stuff, don't judge me. With one swing of his arm and a flick of its wrist, I find that I am falling, flying through the air, everything feels like it is going in slow motion,although it also feels like its going too fast before I hit the ground. Before I know it, I feel a sharp pain as the sensation of falling is gone, my back hit the ground. I take a shaky breath and dart my eyes up to see I'm in camp- I see the boy and the two girls looking over at me "New Camper!" someone exclaims. I sigh in such pain before the black takes over.
Heyyy! This is one of my favorite stories to write and become the character. I have another story that is in the Divergent Trilogy if you'd like to check it out. uH, I hoped you like the chapter, this story is based off of roleplay that I have done in the past, no names will be changed so if you are somebody that I roleplayed with and I dissed you just know, from the bottom of my heart, I really don't care. No, I'm just kidding, but really, don't get too offended if it sounds anything like you. If you have any ideas, you could PM me for this story and any other fanfiction that you'd like me to make.
I am looking forward to writing this story, Please don't be rude if you don't like something just point it out nicely and I will probably take your suggestion. I most likely won't be using suggestions to change the story or add on to it, but I may. Just because these are events that had happened to this character, Natalie. If you have any questions or any ideas or things that I should probably change just PM or review. Thanks!
XOXO
