Prologue
My name is Rosemarie Elizabella Thalassa. I am…different. I have long black hair that I usually braid. My eyes are sea green. I am always tan. I am rather tall. I'm skinny. I'm not fashion forward. Not extremely girly-girl. Disorganized. I have ADHD, but not dyslexia, like my half-brother Percy.
I am also practically Miss Glee. I can find a song for every situation in life, and sing it. For my life, right now, the best song is 'Some Nights' by Fun. Y'know, 'Some night I stay up cashin in my bad luck. Some night I call I a draw.' Yup, that's my life. It's like a fairytale, but about war and without a happy ending. Depressing, but true.
One thing you may not know, Charlie is not my dad. He is only my step-dad. Don't worry, he knows it. My mom is my real mom, though. My real dad is Poseidon. I am a demigod. i guess I should of started with that. Now you know why my life's 'a fairytale, but about war and without a happy ending.' Fun (note the sarcasm)
Anyways, after the Second Titan War, I decided to take a break from Camp Half-Blood. I lived with my mom for a few months, but then she got married again, to a guy named Phil. So now I have two step-dads. I decided to move in with Charlie, my first step-dad who lives in Forks, Washington. Forks may be rainy, but, being the daughter of Poseidon, that is an advantage. I can manipulate water, breath underwater, and even heal when I touch water. Rain is a big advantage for me in a fight.
In Forks, I went by Bella Swan. On my first day of school, I met the Cullens. I thought they were emposai but the men threw me off. There is no such thing as a male emposai. And their eyes. Why were they topaz? Then black? Then somewhere in between?
I was stupid enough to fall in love with one of them. His name was Edward. I did find out that the Cullens were all vampires, like Dracula, but less terrifying and more glittery. But they called themselves vegetarians because they only drink animal blood.
But they left me. They left me alone in the woods. I would of died if it wasn't raining.
It has been a week. It seems like it's been a lifetime. This morning my dad came up to my room and told me that I should go back to camp. That got my attention.
Flashback
Knock, Knock. "It's Charlie." He said. He opened the door and stepped into my room.
"What do you want?" I said, half asleep.
He hesitated for a second, as if rethinking whether or not he should say anything. Finally, he said, "I think you should IM Chiron and go back to camp."
I was suddenly awake and I quickly sat up. "WHAT! HOW DO YOU KNOW THOSE THINGS!" I screamed at him.
"Well, I never did tell you." He said. "I'm actually a son of Hermes."
"Di imortales." I couldn't believe it. But, then again, if you thought about it, it was obvious. He handed me a drachma. "Tell Chiron I said 'Hi'. And make sure to pack everything."
End Flashback
So, I packed my bags. Apparently, not only was Charlie a demigod, but he also had a secret stash of ambrosia and nectar. Charlie gave me plenty of each, along with a good two hundred dollars.
"You're gonna be gone for a while. I can tell." He said. It made me feel bad for leaving him all alone. But, he asured me that he would be fine. After I made him promise to visit, I IMed Chiron about returning to camp. That is where the story begins.
