New neighbours, I thought. I hated strangers, and didn't want to have to make friends. I lived on my own, while still going to college. I just hoped that they weren't a college group sharing a house, then I would have to make friends. And what if they found out my secret?
The truth is, I am a halfblood. Half mortal, half God. That's why I don't like strangers. I'm trying to live my normal life, but it's impossible to when every summer, my life turns upside down. I join camp half blood and don't have many friends there, even though they're all like me. I am the daughter of Athena, the Greek Goddess of wisdom. Every summer I go to Camp Half Blood, and learn to fight monsters,which makes it very hard to fit in when I go to college. But still... I had to get a degree in architecture, it's my dream to be one. I stared out the open window, looking into the room of the empty house that would be soon full. I imagined the different people I would see in the room. A stressed man in a study, a toddler in a nursery, or a gothic teenager, plastering her walls with posters. I looked down to see the door opening. They were here.
"Hello?" I heard a voice calling through my window. I looked up from my desk.
"Oh hi! I'm Piper."
"Annabeth"
Piper called behind her shoulder, "Guys! Come meet the new neighbour!"
"Not just you then?" I asked.
"Nah"
She was wearing a purple t-shirt that was strangely familiar. My eyes widened.
"Camp Jupiter" I whispered. She heared.
"Camp Half blood."
I smiled. Maybe I could have friends after all.
