Chapter One

I Reunite With an Old… "Friend"

It was a dark and stormy night; not really, I just wanted to be dramatic, but it was a night. The thing is; it wasn't just any night; it was the night Kronos returned. Sorry, I'm getting ahead of myself. It all started when I met my little brother. His name is Percy Jackson. Maybe you've heard of him. He defeated Kronos last time. Oddly enough, it had only been a year after the fight when the Titan Lord came back.

My dad Poseidon had informed Percy last summer that he would claim some siblings for him, but I think Percy thought dad was kidding because he was very, very surprised when he met me. By the way, I am Aqua Persephone Catrout. As you can see, I am a daughter of Poseidon, but I am not a prissy damsel in distress waiting to be rescued by a famous hero. I am a heroine and I am my own woman!

Did I mention I wasn't the only sibling surprise for Percy that summer? My two sisters Marina and Marissa (they're twins), came with me to Camp Half-Blood to meet our brother. I'm seventeen (so is Percy) and my sisters are twelve. We're sisters, but we're nothing alike.

Marissa is tough, but not in a trouble-making way. Marina is a big cry-baby (but I'd never say that to her face) and I enjoy playing pranks on people so much, at least twenty half-bloods have wondered why my dad isn't Hermes, god of thieves.

On August 19, the day after Percy's seventeenth birthday, I was fighting a chimera on Half-Blood Hill with my sisters. We had already slayed this monster fifteen times since I was 10 and it seemed once again to be begging for us to send it to Tartarus.

Now that my sisters and I were older, the chimera was a lot easier to fight. I unsheathed my sword and cut a big gash in the monster's arm. I told my sisters to try to distract it and (obviously) to not get killed. Then, I ran down the hill and to the Ares cabin. I raced in and took an electric spear from a nightstand drawer.

I ran back to my sisters and climbed up the pine tree that protected the camp's magical borders. I jumped onto the chimera's back and stuck the spear in the monster's eye. It disintegrated into yellow dust. I collapsed from the tree and onto the hill. The last thing I heard was Marissa breathing heavily and Marina crying her eyes out. After that, everything went black.

When I woke up, I was on a lawn chair outside of a big farmhouse. I was facing a strawberry field, but I couldn't see it because there was a big, angry, muscular girl staring down at me. I screamed at the sight of her. A man in a wheelchair came out of the farmhouse and said, "Clarisse, she's had too much to worry about, don't scare her, too."

Clarisse backed up, but she still stared angrily at me. What did I do? I thought to myself. The man in the wheelchair came up to me and gave me a glass of some liquid that I'd never seen before. It looked kind of like milk, but it was glowing. I slowly took it, my hands shaking. I gulped it down and I instantly felt better. It tasted like the chocolate milkshakes that my mom used to make for me, before the twins were born. Before she died.

I gave the man in the wheelchair a look that said, "Why is she staring at me like that?" The man said to me, "Clarisse claims that you stole her spear." My mouth dropped open. I had completely forgotten about taking the electric spear from the Ares cabin. It seemed like a bajillion years ago.

"I knew it! I told you she stole it, Chiron! I told you! Now tell Mr. D to turn her into a dolphin or something." Clarisse said. The man in the wheelchair (who I guessed was Chiron), took Clarisse into the farmhouse. I tried to stand up, but my knees buckled from under me and I fell into the chair.

I looked at the twelve cabins in front of me. I saw two girls and a boy walk out of one of the cabins. I figured it was either Athena or Hera. I couldn't see it very well. Just then, I realized that the trio was walking towards me.

One girl had long, blonde hair put in a ponytail. She had stormy gray eyes and was wearing an orange Camp Half-Blood t-shirt, blue jeans and sneakers. The other girl had short black hair, blue eyes, and punk clothes. The boy looked extremely like me. He had sea green eyes and black hair. He was wearing the same clothes as the blonde girl. I slowly sat up and looked longingly at the boy. "Percy?" I asked.

Percy and I talked for at least half an hour. I found out that the punk girl was Thalia, daughter of Zeus. Her spirit used to be in the pine tree on the hill. The blonde girl was Annabeth, daughter of Athena.

Thalia said Annabeth was Percy's girlfriend. Percy smiled at that. Annabeth scowled and then smiled at Percy. I giggled. Percy explained to me that Thalia was an immortal huntress which was why she looked sixteen when she was really about twenty-something. She was at Camp Half-Blood on a mission from Lady Artemis.

"What's the mission?" I asked Thalia. Thalia exchanged glances with Annabeth and Percy. "That's the thing," Annabeth said. "We need your help." "Why would you need my help?" I asked in surprise. "Well," Percy started. Thalia interrupted him, "Artemis' chariot is drawn by two reindeer and they're both 'missing'." "Define 'missing'." I said.

Annabeth, Percy, and Thalia told me that a monster had taken the reindeer into the woods, and when they had tried to fight the monster, it had stolen Percy's sword and 'shield watch', Annabeth's invisibility cap and knife, and Thalia's shield and spear; and it still had the reindeer.

"So seriously, why do you need my help?" I repeated. "Well," Percy explained. "The monster is pretty much a forty foot tall chimera, and since you've fought them sixteen times-""Wait!" I interrupted. "How do you know I've fought chimeras sixteen times?" "You talk in your sleep." Percy, Annabeth and Thalia said together. "Like Percy," Annabeth added. I burst out laughing and Percy scowled at Annabeth.

Chiron came out of the farmhouse with Clarisse. Clarisse didn't look as mad, but I could tell she still hated my guts. Behind Clarisse were Marina and Marissa. I tried to stand up, but Percy and Annabeth pushed me down. "Yes, my dear," Chiron said to me. "You must rest. When you fell out of the tree, you broke your leg. That's why I gave you the nectar." He pointed to the empty glass in my hand.

Chiron told Percy, Annabeth, and Thalia to go back to their cabins. Then, my sisters let me lean on them and we went inside the farmhouse. They took me to a room with at least sixteen beds. I lay down on one of the beds (it was just a random white cot). The second my head hit the pillow, I fell asleep.
