Sorry it has been a long time since I updated. I have been working on my Harry Potter fanfiction… Its called they're back. Enjoy the chapter!
Here I am on the bus to Camp Half- Blood. Apparently, my mom going to some random place is more important than driving me to my first day of Camp Half- Blood. She didn't even say bye.
But whatever. Its not like I care. I was sitting by a window all alone. Everyone else had become friends with someone right away. Especially if they found out that they were siblings. I looked around and saw a daughter of Aphrodite eyeing me. Man, was she pretty. I just wish she would talk to me. Even if she did though, I wouldn't be able to hear her over everyone else, and she couldn't get up. First rule on the bus.
Suddenly, the bus jerked to a stop and a girl got on. She had brown flowing hair, green, eyes, and freckles. Her bag that was slung over her shoulder was over flowing with books and loose papers. She was about to sit down when the bus lurched forward, and she fell into the seat next to me. She blocked off my view of the Aphrodite girl. All the people on the bus laughed but me, and that was because her bag hit me in the face, and it really hurt.
"Um…hi." Hi! That's all she can say after she can say after hitting me in the face with a bag that felt like it weighed 60 pounds! So I say something real smart back at her.
"Hi."
"I'm Kylie."
"Seth."
"Is it your first year to camp Half-Blood?" She asked. Great, is there a welcoming committee too?
"Uh, yeah. You?"
"Actually this will be my second year. Do you know who are you the son of?" Is it her business to know everything?
"Apollo."
"Oh, he is-hot? I guess, but I didn't see him for very long. You're lucky that he told you up front. The Gods seem to be doing that more often. But some of us have to wait and be claimed." I nodded, not really caring. But is it my faults that I can't grasp onto things that other people think are interesting? No its not. I was actually pretty surprised that she had met him. I had only seen him about three times in my life. Including the one where he told me I was a Half-Blood.
"Who are you the daughter of?" She asked me who I was, so I think I am entitled to know. The bus lurched again.
"Uh, how about I tell you later." I really wanted to know then, but I figured that I would find out when later came.
Fifteen minutes later, the bus stopped and everyone got off. I fallowed everyone down to this really big arena. A semi-old man walked wheeled in his wheel chair into the center of the arena. I couldn't see what he did, but suddenly, there was a centaur standing where the man in the wheel chair had been. Only a few people besides me gasped. The centaur announced that his name was Chiron.
"This year, we have quite a new selection of people. So we will have to do some things differently. One Half- Blood who has been known as a Half-Blood for at least a summer, and has gone here, will show around the newbie's." We would have partners.
"When I call your name, you will fallow the older camper outside for your tour.
Jenna daughter of Aphrodite with Cooper son of Hermes." Great, the girl that was looking at me on the bus is now with a better-looking guy than me with his perfect skin, hair, and smile. Every girl's eyes watched Cooper leave. Great.
"Kylie daughter of Zeus with Seth son of Apollo." I stood up and so did Kylie from the bus. Wait, did he say Zeus? I walked out of the arena with Kylie at my side. We were walking toward some cabins when I stopped her.
"Your dad is Zeus!" I practically yelled in her face.
"Yes, now can we keep walking?" I stayed rooted to the spot.
"Why didn't you want to tell me?" She sighed.
"Because my dad is Zeus! I hate being expected to do great things!"
"I think I know how you feel."
"Yeah right."
"I recently found out that I am the grandchild of Annabeth Chase and Percy Jackson! Beat that!"
"My dad is Zeus! You can't beat that!" She had a point. "So your grandparents are the people who saved Olympus when they were sixteen?" I nodded. "I guess you kind of know how I feel."
After getting to know her, Kylie and I were quite compatible. Turns out Kylie has a pretty good life back at her home in New York. She has a nice mom and stuff. Lucky.
We ended up sitting on the beach talking. My grandfather being Poseidon (Cool huh? Two gods blood in my own) I have never actually been scared of the water and I could swim very well. But Kylie seemed pretty nervous around the water.
"So what are these quests I have heard about?" I asked, remembering what my dad had said before he left. You'll be an awesome Half-Blood son. Maybe you'll even get to go on a quest this year.
"Oh you wouldn't want-" I was wondering why she stopped when a gentle hand laid on my shoulder.
"Hello Seth," a soft beautiful voice whispered in my ear. I turned to see Jenna, the girl that was looking at me on the bus. She grabbed my hand and pulled me away from Kylie.
"Come sit with me Seth," she pulled me faster. Kylie's voice rang out.
"He was talking to me Jenna. And you have your own camper to show around." Kylie said Jenna's name with disgust. Jenna laughed and kept pulling me away.
"Well he is talking to me now so you can just, leave. I took care of Cooper." Kylie stood up, her face filled with rage. In between her fist were little bolts of electricity, or lightning. Well someone has anger management issues. I figured Kylie and Jenna weren't exactly friends.
"All you have is pretty!" She yelled a thunder shook overhead. "But I have power. I can control weather almost as much as my father!" I thought I heard her mutter, "Even if I can't prove it." She started yelling again.
"You and your siblings shouldn't even be here at Camp Half –Blood! You can't fight! Or are you going to hurt people with charm?" Jenna stopped and turned around.
"You know," she said. "Pretty can also be turned into ugly." Jenna thrust her fist forward and nothing happened. I was confused and Kylie was smiling. Suddenly, Kylie's hair was tugged back, and started pulling her towards the water. Kylie screamed so loud I had to cover my ears. I watched Kylie being pulled over the water and knew I had to do something. So I pushed Jenna over, which probably ended any chance of me being with her, and ran after Kylie. When I pushed Jenna over, she had dropped Kylie, and she fell in the water. Apparently, Kylie can't swim and is very scared of water. I jumped in and swam to her. By now she was so afraid and mad that the sky turned into a big thunderstorm. Winds were blowing, rain was pouring, and a funnel cloud appeared in the lightning. Yup, she has major anger management issues. I finally reached Kylie and pulled her back to shore. She started coughing up water, which I have to say, was a little gross. Kylie tried to make lighting flash between her fingers, but is wouldn't work.
"Look at what she did to me!" Kylie screamed. But I didn't talk back. I was too busy to busy looking at Chiron the centaur and half the campers running down the hill.
Well that was a long chapter… hope you enjoyed it! Please review!
