The rings of HecateChapter 1- the note
About: Paige Nelson (my Percy Jackson character and daughter of Hecate. Goddess of magic) finds out some old history about her mother and a secret. Millie is my friend Meghan's p.j character. Paige is mine.
I opened my eyes and started down the bunk ladder. My head ached from last night's party in the Hermes cabin. Millie was great at throwing parties. I went over to my dresser and pulled out the usually. Purple t-shirts, blue capris, and a pair of black pony tail holders. I undressed and put on my pair of fresh clothes. I grabbed my red flip flops and raced over to the Athena cabin. I nearly face planted the door down. I sat up and spotted Annabeth and Haliee on the lower bunk starring at me.
"Hi Paige". Annabeth said. I nodded and walked over to them. Haliee smiled.
"Hi guys. How's it going?" I said. I flipped my jet black out of my glasses and sat down next to Annabeth. She signed.
"We got a message from Aphrodite. It's for you". She stated. I nodded.
"Well what did she say?" I questioned her. She pulled a piece of cracked paper out of her pocket and handed it to me.
"Read it". Haliee said. I nodded and unwrapped it.
"Dear Paige, you must be confused. I would be too if I found out that every god and goddess got magical rings expected for you. If you don't know by now, your mother built rings for all the gods and goddess expect for me. She believed I seduce man for the fun of it (which in a way I do). But she must make one for me or else. You have 24 hours before I will came and talk to you. Kisses.
Love Aphrodite". I read the letter. I knew that my mom built rings for the gods, but I didn't know she didn't build one for Aphrodite.
"I didn't know my mom disliked her that much". I stated. Annabeth rolled her eyes.
"Aphrodite made lots of people angry. It was in her nature to. Don't feel bad, Paige". She replied. I nodded.
"Annabeth is right Paige. Aphrodite makes everyone here mad, unless you're a descended of her. Some of her own children hate her. Don't feel bad". Haliee stated.
"I should go. I need to talk to Katie about this. Bye see you guys tonight. I said and ran out of there cabin. And went over to the camp library. I opened the door and raced in. I slipped my shoes off and went to the back where her office was. She turned to look at me as I entered her room. Her blonde hair fell over her shoulders matching her bright green eyes. She smiled and went over to me.
"Paige what is it? Is something wrong?"
"I need some information on the rings of Hecate". I said. She nodded her head and walked over to a small white case near her desk. She pulled out a lightly dusted book and placed it on her desk. She opened to the way back and pulled out a sunflower colored envelope. Katie handed me the packet and ordered me open it when I got back to my cabin.
"why? What's inside?" I asked her. She sighed.
"Something Chiron gave me to keep a secret from the Hecate cabin until the right time came. The time is now". She said firmly. I nodded. Why was this packet so imported that it was kept a secret? What were Chiron and my mother keeping from me? I had to open it to find out.
"Thanks Katie". I stated.
"Come back later Paige. I will help you with anything you need". She replied as I picked up my flip flops and ran out the door to my cabin.
