Me: Hello everyone! I'm here again!

Keiki: OI! You said you had exams! What about us?!
Me: I couldn't pass up the opportunity to write a PJ fanfic (^.^);

Keiki: -.-||

Me: I don't own Percy Jackson. Though I seriously wish I did.

I was just minding my own business. Getting bullied, getting shoved in the fountain. You know, stuff that happens to everyone! Then that thing just HAD to attack me, didn't it?

Oh yes, I was attacked by a harpie. A HARPIE! You know, the woman with bird wings from mythology? Yeah. It happened. And to make matters worse, my life was saved by the school bully. Yep. The guy who shoved my head down the toilet.

Well, now I guess you're wondering how it happened. Well TOO BAD! I'm not going to tell you.

Wait. The whole point of this was to tell you. So guess what? I'm still not going to tell you.

So what am I going to do?

Well, I could tell you my name to start with. T' name's Inara Gale. And I'm in a place you could only dream of.

Where am I?

Stop asking questions dammit!

Yeah. I changed in the few days I was running to CHB. I already know I got stronger. I got more confident too. This whole 'demigod' thing changes your perspective pretty quickly. What's a Demigod? Well, it's a kid that's half human. Hence the 'demi' meaning 'half'. The other half's pretty easy to guess. I mean, the last word is 'god' so…you can take a pretty accurate guess.

Me? Well, if I told you now that would ruin the story. Of COURSE I'm not going to tell you who my parent is.

I'm going to tell you how I got claimed instead. So, without further ado.

It was around 3 minutes into my first game of capture the flag of death.

"WHOA!" I slipped down a muddy slope and into the ditch. My day was off to a great start.

I picked myself up and saw all of the mud on my chestplate. Yup. Just great.

As I started walking again, I could feel the mud squelching in my shoes. It was like a cross between dog dung and wet sand. In short - it was gross.

When I looked up next, I could see the other team's flag right in front of me. As in, I was about to run into it. Luckily for me, I saw it before I had the chance to run into it. Unluckily for me, I was also rooted to the spot my vines. I swore under my breath. It was the Dionysus kids. It had to be.

I wriggled as much as I could but my feet wouldn't budge. At this stage, I was starting to get irritated. Not only was my luck bad, but I was THIS CLOSE to getting the flag.

To make matters worse, I could hear the other team coming back. I could tell it was the Dionysus kids who'd trapped me, a group of Ares and Athena campers and their leader - who seemed to be an Aphrodite camper. I could tell they were about to come into the clearing. I was sweating and seeing my life flash before my eyes. What? It's not called capture the flag of death for nothing you know.

I was approached by the Aphrodite camper. Were you expecting a girl? It wasn't. It was a very pretty blonde boy with blue eyes. Think a German celebrity. He looked skinny, but strong. Why else would the Ares campers listen to him?

"Trying to get our flag are we?" He said to me with no trace of remorse in his voice.

"Yeah and?" I said, trying to sound brave.

He snickered and punched me. In the jaw. It hurt like hell, I can tell you. I spat the blood out of my mouth and tried to get free of the vines. He let me, and punched me into the creek.

"Get her."

I swore again in my mind as I was surrounded by Ares, Athena and Dionysus kids.

Yep. This was the who 'one-on-six' thing.

Me: Seriously. I couldn't pass up this opportunity.

Keiki: Whatever. You just leave us alone to die then.

Me: Geez.

Inara: Read and review peopl! YEAH! *punches the sky*
