"Destiny"
Destiny's POV:
I slowly opened my eyes, a white light was blinding me. My body was aching in pain, my muscles were so sore I could barely move. I could hear a mumble of voices but I couldn't quite make out in the background and then suddenly my eyes shifted into focus.
To my left a rustic wooden table were some peculiar looking drinks. In the far background there was a field of strawberries. It seemed like I was in a camp. Teenagers were scattered about everywhere: some sword fighting, others running, swimming or just sitting in the porch.
As I averted my gaze to the little table heard a gallop. It started getting louder and louder so I glanced behind me and saw a strange creature that had a horse's lower body and a man's upper body walking towards me.
I felt my blood rushing through my whole body and magically the unbearable pain I felt before vanished. Instinctively, I shot up from my chair and ran outside.
I saw a boy staring at me while his jet black eyes shined in the sun. He was pale with messy black hair and eyes that hid deep feelings. He was staring right into my eyes and for some reason I was staring right back. I was so mesmerized by his intense stare I didn't notice the last step.
I stumbled and the last thing I remembered was him holding me in his arms. When I finally woke up, I found myself laying in the exact same house, only this time instead of a weird creature, my best friend Theodora was waiting for me to wake up…
But that wasn't the same Theodora I've known…that Theodora was half human and half goat! Instead of feet she had hoofs. The blood froze in my veins and I began questioning her. How did I get here? Why was Theodora suddenly a different person?
And who was that girl? That girl… With everything that had happened I hadn't noticed the girl that was standing next to Theodora. She had dark brown hair and tanned skin. She was thin and had light brown eyes that were rimmed with gold.
Theodora began explaining everything to me but the only thing on my mind was…him. Who was him? Theodora mast have noticed me blank out because she stopped talking and instead she was staring at me.
"Anyway" she spoke "I should introduce you to Anna" she said pointing to the girl standing beside her.
Anna was really gorgeous, from what I gathered this camp was a place for demigods.
"Are you a daughter of Aphrodite?" I asked her.
"Oh definitely not!" she exclaimed, sounding a little offended. "I'm a daughter of Poseidon" she said smiling sweetly.
"Who's my godly parent?" I asked with curiosity and excitement growing in my eyes.
"You haven't been claimed yet but we'll soon find out." Anna explained standing up from her chair beside me. She went on "I wouldlike to give you the camp tour myself but I have to help my brother with something so Theodora will show you around" and withthat she left.
Theodora and I left the big house. She showed me where the showers were and as we were heading back to the big house Chiron appeared and began telling her about a recruit mission or something of the sort, I'm not quite sure because my attention was averted to my surroundings.
My gaze scanned the area and froze when it met the cold, lifeless state of the boy with obsidian eyes. Who was he? I was so fixated on the mysterious boy I hadn't noticed the girl dressed, well to be honest I don't think I can use the word dressed since her outfit revealed pretty much everything there was to reveal.
In a whiny voice she began complaining to Chiron but he cut her off and urged Theodora to go pack her bags.
"I'll have Nico finish your tour" she frowned walking away.
"Who's Nico?" I yelled but she was already gone.
The blonde girl was now only a few meters away from me shot around at the sound of my question. She pointed towards me with a smirk on her face and whined "Nico Di Angelo, despite his name is not even an angel. Although he's dreamy, sweet and makes you feel special all he really wants is another girl in his beds. He's the camp's player and a total asshole. If you don't want your heart broken stay away from him" one more hair flick and she was gone.
Typical! Of course he's a player… I mean with his looks! Besides, that's the only type of guy I ever get interested in… ugh! Not this time though. A player won't break me again. I'll just keep my distance and keep him out of my mind.
I leaned against a wall waiting for him to come. A few minutes later he appeared from a nearby cabin, at the cabin's door was a girl calling out his name, telling him to go back.
My gaze got colder as he neared me even more. He stopped a few steps away from me. His eyes pierced mine like daggers.
"I'm Nico Di Angelo, nice to meet you" he flicked his hair out of his face and extended his arm for me to shake.
I turned my head to the side pulling away from his stare and in an abrupt monotonous voice "Destiny".
