~Chapter one~
The girl and her father pulled up at the sign of Camp half-Blood in a tan coloured Toyota truck. The young teen nearly dragged her father through the entrance and onto the camp grounds. Her father, Nick Burkhardt, had heard from the parents of other Half-Bloods that mortals couldn't get through the gate, so the detective got a few confused glances. The truth was, he and his daughter were two of the last Grimms, a race descending generation after generation, who protected non-wesen from evil creatures who could look like anyone else when they wanted to, and could transform to things like half-wolf people and bee-men,also known by the German term of wesen.
"Hailz, slow down."he said to his daughter, Hailey, or Hailz for short.
"Sorry dad…"she said before she stopped pulling her father and walked beside him. "I'm just excited to meet other Half-Bloods."
"I know,I know. Just, whatever you do, don't tell anyone, ANYONE, about you being a G." He said. 'G' was their secret language for 'Grimm'. Only a handful of people back in the girl's native Portland, Oregon,knew that the two were Grimms, and all were wesen, both good and bad.
A young boy around Hailey's age, 13, came up to them.
"I'm Percy Jackson. Is there anything I can help you with?" He said.
"We're looking for Mr. D. My daughter is going to be joining the gang here at Camp Half-Blood." Nick told Percy.
"PERSEUS!" They heard a man yell before he came out of the farm house at the front of the camp. "Would you care to tell me where this came from?" The man asked, holding up a cell phone. "I will not tolerate with electronics here at Camp Half-Blood."
"Sorry, sir. Mr. D, this man and his daughter were looking for you." Percy replied, gesturing to Nick and Hailz.
"Welcome to Camp Half-Blood. Who might you be?" Mr. D asked them.
"I'm Nick Burkhardt and this is my daughter Hailey." Nick Said.
"You can call me Hailz. I think I might be the daughter of Artemis." Hailey said.
"Alright, then. Until we find out for sure, you'll be in cabin 11." Mr. D told her. Just then, a centaur walked up to them.
"Chiron, would you show miss Burkhardt around?" Mr. D asked.
"Of course, Mr. D." The centaur replied. "I'm Chiron. What would your name be?" He asked, turning to Hailey.
"Hailey. Or Hailz. Doesn't matter." She replied.
"Alright then, Hailey. Follow me. Percy, would you like to come along?" Chiron asked.
"Sure." Percy replied. Chiron and Percy took turns being the tour-guide, pointing out the amphitheater, the armoury, archery range(Hailey's favourite), the canoeing lake, mess hall, stables, strawberry fields, and the 12 cabins. Hailey put her stuff in cabin 11, Hermes, before the three headed back towards the farm house. On their way, a satyr went over to talk to them.
"Who's this?" He asked, pointing to Hailey.
"Grover, this is Hailey. Hailey, meet Grover." Said Percy.
"Nice to meet you." Grover said to Hailey. "Do you know which god or goddess you're the daughter of?"
"Not sure, but I think I'm the daughter of Artemis." Hailey replied.
"What makes you think that?"
"The first time I ever went hunting was with my dad when I was five. I'd never even seen a bow before, but I knew what I was doing better than my father did." Hailey explained. Grover and the others stared at her, jaws dropped in shock. They shook themselves out of their dazes when the conch horn blew for supper. Mr. D announced Hailey as a year round guest, and then everyone got up and threw offerings into the fire, whispering names of gods and goddesses. Finally it was Hailey's turn. She threw the biggest piece of meat and a ripe red apple into the fire.
"Artemis." She whispered. After supper, the campers went around doing activities. Hailey found herself at the archery range, a target on one end, and her on the other. Chiron went up to her and watched. She got into position to shoot, but instead of aiming, he watched her clench her eyes shut, and the arrow hit the bulls eye.
"Amazing." He said, startling her.
"Thanks." She replied.
"You can shoot a still target with your eyes shut, but can you do it on a moving target?" He asked her.
"I don't know. I've never tried." She replied. Chiron called over a camper, who gave him an empty tin can.
"Try to hit this." He instructed Hailey. She nodded. By then, all the other campers were watching as Chiron threw the can into the air. Hailey focused on it for a minute before clenching her eyes shut and letting an arrow fly. She heard the sound of something piercing tin, and then a thump. She opened her eyes to see the tin can, an arrow strait through the middle. She pulled it out, and when she looked up, every one was bowing down in front of her.
"What's going on?" She asked as everyone stood up.
"Artemis." Chiron said. "She's claimed you as her daughter."
~AN: I hope you guys like it. I hadn't gotten very far in The lightning Thief, so I didn't know grow the characters should react, but I'm almost done the book now so I'm pretty sure I understand what they'd do. I hope I got it right this time. I don't cater if comments are good or bad, because bad one help me write better. By the way, Wesen means 'creature' or 'essence' in German, and it's pronounced (Ves-in). Whenever I have Wesen names from the Grimm show, I'll post an AN on how to pronounce them and what the mean. Wesen is basically the word to describe all the different creatures of NBC's Grimm.
