Arianne's pov
I woke up. It was dark and I think I was in an alley somewhere. Where am I? I said it was about somewhere in the evening and night was beginning fall. Next to me was a coin, backpack and 2 daggers laid in a neat pile. I racked my brain where was I?, how did I get here?, who am I?, and how old was I? wait.. I'm 17! at least I remembered something about my past. I stood up my legs seemed wobbly as if they hadn't moved in a long time I tried remembering family, friends, or even pets. Nothing... I looked at myself: layered sweater top, combat boots, and short-shorts. All of a sudden I felt like running more than anything. I shook my head and started running. As fast as my legs could take me
"You didn't think you'd get away so easily did you?"
A raspy voice said from behind me I whirled around and saw an empousa grinning or as much as an empousa can grin anyway.
"A child of the night ehhh... always the tastiest"
She said as she lunged for me. I didn't know what happened next, my body moved on its own as if it knew what to do. I picked up the daggers and did a round house kick and then stabbed her in the gut, but that wasn't enough so I picked up the coin and flipped it and it landed on top of my thumb my hand moved making a gun sign with my hands. Electricity poured out of my index finger in a single line but the energy was massive, right where her heart was I shot it a big hole in her heart.
I was radiating power and electricity, my finger still tingling from the electricity. The empousa looked at me and then at the big hole where her heart should be her eyes widened. "i-..impossible... a child of night has never been able to control electricity" and off of that happy note she crumbled into dust. It was my turn to be shocked I didn't remember a thing about this power.
I heard a laugh. Not the evil kind of laugh, the kind of soft, tinkling laugh like a bell ringing. "Go to camp Half-Blood my child, there you will find happiness. I am sure and remember let your body lead you" I felt a kiss on my cheeks and my eyes grew sleepy. Long story short. I went to sleep and dreamt.
"Go to camp Half-blood my child you will find your destiny there" a woman said to me she seemed to be the night sky and she looked very familiar. "Mom...?" I said breathlessly she smiled "yes child... yes"
I woke up in the middle of a road. Wait a road!? People were gathering outside looking at me I could imagine the newspaper's" "Homeless girl sleeps on the road" I shot up and quickly grabbed my stuff and hailed a taxi. Judging by the look of the city it was probably New York, I finally hailed a taxi.
"Where too? the driver said lazily
"cam-... Long Island pick your own strawberry farm" I said nonchalantly
The ride was quiet but it gave me a lot of time to think. When I finally arrived it was night and the stars seemed brighter than usual
"$30.45" he said
I panicked I forgot that we needed to pay money for cabs I looked in my backpack. Exactly the same amount inside I breathed a sign of relief and came out of the car. As the car drove away I heard a voice.
"Come dear demigod an off spring of night herself! A wonderful treat that will be. Come so I can eat you" the voice said
I groaned another monster what do I need to do? Hold up a 'eat me' sign? I did a spinning kick and hit it on its head. It roared and spewed out fire I was caught off-balance and burned a part of my leg. It was little but it hurt enough so when I walked it would drag me down. My daggers slid into my hands and I ran to it trying to find a weak spot, campers were starting to come outside awed at the sight of a girl fighting a monster. But I somehow knew that they weren't because they were demigods like me. I stabbed its head and this time it shot flames at my arm.
"Enough!" I muttered I picked up my coin and flipped it and a burst of electricity burst, but this time i moved my hands and by the time I was done the monster was cut in half. The campers were talking and looking at me.
"What is going on here!?" A centaur said pushing a way through the crowd. His gaze softened as he saw me "new camper" he said beaming he looked at the monster dust then muttered "Chimera..." A girl and boy were pushing their way through the crowds too.
"She killed a Chimera!?" The girl with blonde hair and gray, stormy eyes said the boy had jet-black hair with sea-green eyes. The girl was studying me as if this was a test. I suddenly felt nausea and dizzy the world was spinning and then everything went black.
Done! I was in a hurry sorry about the grammer issues point out my mistakes and REVIEW!~ :D
