Emma's P.O.V
Hi, my name is Emma Jackson. I'm sixteen years old, and I still believe in monsters. Yeah, I know what you're thinking, you're too old to believe in that fairy tale nonsense, but it's not out of the ordinary for my kind. And by 'kind' I mean demigods. I'm half human, and half Greek God.
Still, I know you probably don't believe me, but that's okay, it's your loss. You can probably go on throughout your whole life thinking I'm a liar, but don't come crying to me when a Minotaur shows up at your doorstep. Although, you'll most likely think he's a smelly post man due to the excessive amount of mist surrounding him.
And if you do believe me, then you're in for a treat. (By treat I mean the story of my life…..)
My parents are Percy and Annabeth Jackson. They're both gods of Olympus.
My dad is a son of Poseidon, god of the sea. He can control horses mostly, but also has a special thing for earthquakes. People say I look like my dad because I'm tall, tan, and have sea green eyes, but honestly, I act like him too. Meaning, I'm a grade-A moron. My mom is the goddess of architecture and is pretty useful in battle. She takes after her mom, Athena, but she hates her with every fiber of her being….. She can hold a grudge as good as Hades can.
For some reason, I'm a main target for monsters. Why don't they attack Jayden, Hunter, or any of my other friends for a change? Not that I'd want them to be attacked, but at least they'd see what I go through every day. My dad said that the reason every monster in the history of ever wants to murder me is because every monster in the history of ever wants to kill him. My life is just craptastic.
"You can run, but you can't hide…." I yell as creepily as I could. My friends and I were battling in the arena, and we decided to change things up by having teams. On my team, I had Castiel and Hunter. Cas was always getting in trouble with his parents, Piper and Jason. He was constantly hacking into other people's computers and sending encrypted messages to his fellow hackers, but when he wasn't hacking into a data base, he would be hanging out with Dean. His mother constantly trying to get him to 'act normal,' or 'stop being a delinquent.' He wouldn't listen, and would continue to make deals on the internet in his sketchy tan trench coat and blue tie, but his mother proceeds to attempt slapping some sense into him.
Hunter had curly black hair and hazel colored eyes. His physique is small, but in some way…..elegant. Much like his mother, Calypso. He continues to make jokes even if they suck, and he's always moving around because of his ADHD. Hunter is great at building and can also light himself on fire without feeling a thing, like his dad.
The other team consisted of Natalie, Dean, and Jayden. Natalie has long, black, curly hair and golden eyes. She's extremely agile and quick, and was great when it came to hand to hand combat. She can change into any animal she wants, whenever she wants and is a precious stone 'magnet'. Nat is able to navigate underground easily and can kick some serious ass.
Dean is powerful and deadly. He's always wearing a leather jacket, gold amulet, and denim jeans, his light brown hair standing up in the air. His dad taught him how to use guns and knives exceptionally well, and he's exceedingly great at hand to hand combat. He never gave up to anyone or anything, even if he looked like shit and was still losing.
Jayden is my closest friend and is good at sword fighting. She can guide the winds and create thunderstorms with her mind. She has choppy blonde hair and kaleidoscope eyes. She can use a dagger fairly well and is fluent in charm speak.
At the end of our short practice, my team lost. It was a devastating defeat, Hunter was won over by Jayden's charm speak, Cas was shot down by an army of the dead, and I was trapped in a small metal cage thanks to Natalie. Tomorrow, we will be sadly buying them ice cream as our punishment for losing.
A few hours after the fight I went to the Hades Cabin to visit Dean. When I got to the black door, I let myself in. He was playing Call of Duty, and listening to Metallica. He sat on his bed, eye's fixed to the screen while shouting orders into his silver head-set. "Guys, I gotta go. Keep fighting, leave no survivors!"
He shut off his Xbox and took off his headset, keeping eye contact with me. His green eyes were gorgeous and his hair was messy. He let out a deep chuckle, as he spotted me staring. "What's up?" He questioned, breaking me out of my trance. "You didn't have to turn that off, I could have waited," I stated, trying not to mess with my curly, blonde hair like I usually did when I was nervous. He laughed the sexiest laugh I've ever heard before he leaned up against the door and said, "I'm assuming there is a reason you came all the way across camp to talk to me," I swallowed, gods, never have I ever wanted to kiss someone so badly before. "Umm, yeah we're playing truth or dare in the Zeus cabin, do you wanna join?" "Hell yeah!" He quickly and enthusiastically responded as we raced to the Zeus cabin.
