POV: COLIN
"You're going to be late!" My dad called from across the house

"I'm only waiting for Hannah!" I yelled back

Just then, Hannah came around the corner "yeah right, I've been done for half an hour, at least," she said. I rolled my eyes and followed Hannah into the living room where my dad was sitting.

Before I forget to mention it, Hannah and I are twins, we never knew our mother, and we had no idea what we were about to get ourselves into.

"okay kids, get in the car!" my father said. Me and Hannah walked outside of the house into the sunny morning of the first day of Summer.

Our father refused to tell us where we were going, said it was a "surprise" but me and Hannah played along.

After a few hours of driving I saw the Empire State Building. "Empire State Building?! Dad, why are we in New York?!" I said.

My father just gulped and didn't answer. Soon we parked to a big hill, me and Hannah looked at each other, she mouthed Long island? I nodded, even though I had no idea why we were there.

"Okay, here we are, Camp Half-Blood, see you two after Summer" he hugged us both and left us at the bottom of the hill.

Hannah looked at me and shrugged, we both trudged up the hill, and once we saw camp, we held our breathe. It was awesome! Strawberry fields, people beating each other with weapons, and teens with REALLY hairy legs playing reed pipes.

One of the kids with hairy legs walked up to us and gave us orange Camp Half-Blood T-Shirts.
The kid smiled and said "I'm Redwood, welcome young Demigods!"

Me and Hannah looked at each other, then Hannah finally said "Demigods?"

Redwood smiled, "Well, if you aren't then the Ares cabin would have to kill you"

I laughed, "Ares? As in... the mythical Greek god of War?"

"Well, I can assure you he is NOT mythical, but yes, the very REAL Greek god of War."

Hannah and I couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Yeah, and I bet I'm daughter of the mythical goddess Artemis," Hannah said laughing.

Redwood swooned at the name of Artemis, "you know her?! I SO envy you!"

Hannah and I looked at each other with raised eyebrows, as if to say is this freak serious?!

Just then, someone- or something- came galloping towards us, he was a man from the waist up and a white stallion from the waist down, he smiled and said "hello, I'm Chiron, the centaur"

That's when I started believing all this, but Hannah didn't look so sure.
