I am sick and tired of this happening to me! First my dad left my mom to be a single mother, and then I got abused at school because I was "special", and now this I am going to live in New York away from the only family I have. Mom says it is best for me but I don't get why she never sees anything through my eyes it is always hers. My best friend is like me but she can't walk that well because she has a disease that runs through the family. So it happened all too quickly. It was a Friday the last day of school when I walk into my mom's boyfriend's house when I saw my mom packing up my stuff. She said, "We decided that it isn't safe for you here, Violet, and we are sending to New York to live with a friend of Alex."
I said, "I didn't have a part of this! I lived here since Dad left and now you are sending me away from Los Angeles for no apparent reason without telling me till the day I leave! Do you know how I feel about this? I want to live with you not someone I never met." I ran out of my room to the fire escape since we live in a fancy apartment. Mom and her boyfriend Dan were talking about this too because apparently Dan didn't know about it. Alex came down from her apartment. I sighed.
Alex said, "I know this isn't the greatest choice but it was the only one we could agree on. I promised someone that I would take care of you. He told me to make sure if you got hurt that I would take care of it before it turned into world war three." I laughed that was Alex's thing. World War Three.
I said, "Are you coming with me to wherever we are going? I don't want to be lonely. You are my only friend."
She said, "Why would I let you leave without me anyways you silly duck." I felt better but my mom called me in so I could do the rest of the packing.
It was time to leave so Alex's mom drove us to the airport because Dan didn't want to take us. Alex's mom adopted Alex because Alex was abandoned. At the airport they ask where our adults where. Alex said that we were going to live with our dad for a while so our mother dropped us off at the airport. They seemed to believe us. It was about three hour flight to get to Manhattan. In Manhattan I see someone familiar. It was someone I know from my childhood. The figure said, "Violet, It's you!"
It was Nico. I remember him from a long time ago. Alex said, "What a surprise you're here death boy." Alex and Nico never got along. Alex knew I liked Nico and he was only there to protect me for the longest time. He left to go live with his father who also left him. Nico knew Alex was my best friend and I would never want to choose one of them.
"Welcome back your natureness. Your ride is waiting for you. As for Violet I need to talk to her," Nico said. Gosh I missed him so much. Alex left without complaining.
"Nico, I missed you so much I wish you never had to leave." I blurted out. I wanted to go on about how much I missed him.
"You don't have to go with Alex. You can stay my princess in the underworld. I won't let anything hurt you," Nico said.
"Doesn't that sound familiar death boy. The girl you loved but you let her die because she wasn't what you were looking for," Alex said with a smile. Apparently she didn't leave.
Nico said, "I love you Violet I will always will. You can always come stay with me." He leaned forward and kissed me. He vanished just like that. Alex walked me out. She knew if she didn't talk me out of it I would have left with him. We walk out and there was a ride. Alex said that it was ours.
Alex said, "Grover and Juniper meet Violet. Violet meet Grover and Juniper." We say hi and stuff. Eventually we get to area that regular humans can't go through. It said Camp Half-Blood even though it was Latin is still understood what it said. I saw Nico again but he wasn't there for me. He was with another girl. Alex ran over and gave the girl a hug. I walked over to meet her.
A turn out the girl is Thalia and she is Nico's cousin. She seems really nice. Her other cousin Percy was too busy hanging out with his girlfriend Annabeth. Nico tells Thalia that I was his girlfriend even though that wasn't all the way true. Alex glared at me when he said that. I pulled Alex a side. I said, "That isn't true. I would have told you. He wants it to be true. Trust me on this." Alex nods. We go back over and Percy and Annabeth joins. Grover also comes and hangs out with us. It turned out to be great. Alex pulls me aside.
We go up to the main house as she calls it and she told me to wait out front. I do as told. She comes out with Mr. D and Chiron. They have me be claimed by my parent who turns out to be Ares. Alex said, "Your father wanted you to be like your mother not a mistake like him and his other children. That is why he had Chiron send me." I felt happy that my father actually cared.
My cabin is run by a girl named Clarisse. She welcomed me in because I was related to her not because I am nice. People say I am lucky if I stay that way.
