Annabeth

Annabeth woke up in a strange bed. At first she didn't realize where she was until that night came rushing back, her mom, Grover, the monster. Tears weld up in her eyes.

"Oh thank gods you're awake." She heard a voice say. She saw her best friend Grover come into view.

"How long have I been out?" She asked.

"Three days. I have been worried." He said as he accidentally kicked hi shoe off. Instead of a foot there was a cloven hoof. "Oh Styx." He hurried and put the show back on. All chances of that night being a dream suddenly disappeared.

"My mom is she really..."

"I'm sorry Annabeth. It is all my fault I'm the worst stayter in the world." He said. "Come on Mr. D is waiting on us. They got up and Grover helped her round the corner of the house and she saw three people. One was a cherub looking man. He probably was from a trailer park. The other was a kid about her age. He had blonde hair that was short and curled was curly. He had piercing gray eyes that look like he was calculating multiple things at once. He was the boy she saw before she passed out. The other was a middle age looking man in a wheelchair. They all were playing a game of cards.

"Annabeth that is Mr. D," Grover said pointing to the trailer park dude, "that is Chiron," pointing to the guy in the wheelchair," and that is Perseus Jackson but he likes to go by Percy." He finished pointing to the boy.

"Ah Anniebell come four is always better for a game." Mr. D said. She was reluctant at first but ended up sitting and joining the game.

"Annabeth well I don't know how to start this, but how much do you know about Greek Mythology." Chiron said.

"You mean like Zeus, Poseidon, and Aphrodite them? Why? What has it to do with why I'm here?"

"Well I am getting there. What would you say if I told you they were real?" "I would call you crazy. They aren't real and they never will be."

"You should watch what you are saying before one incinerates you." Mr. D said.

"You know your restrictions Mr. D. I'm sure your father would not be pleased if something happened. Percy can you go make sure they will be a spot open for her in cabin eleven?" Chiron asked.

"Sure." Percy looked at her. She thought he was going yo say something like Oh you killed the Minator. That is so awesome! Instead he said, "You drool when you sleep", and ran off.

"So Greek Gods you say." She said anxious to change the subject.
