Its the best summary I can do, ENJOY CHAPTER 2! 3RD WILL BE UP ON FRIDAY AT THE EARLIEST!

Chapter 2: Settling in

Percy could hear voices around him but only recognised one of them, Grover's. He was almost relived that he at least had one friend near him but it was overshadowed by the panic what had started to ensue. Where the hell was he?

Percy started to gradually open his eyes and was met with the sight of Grover looking down on him with a bit of a grin.

"Hey Bud, so you survived hellhounds" chuckled Grover with a his go easy smirk.

"What?" mumbled Percy as he was still a little dazed.

"That's what the Monster's were who chased us up half blood hill till we reached the border" explained Grover to a confused looking Percy.

"What the hell are you talking about?" said Percy who had just started to get a grip of his surroundings.

"I think that I will let someone else explain it better" smirked Grover.

"See ya outside, Perce" he called over his shoulder as he walked out wherever he was.

Percy looked towards the end of his bed and saw a girl wish long curly blonde hair who looked like she was analysing him as he eyes took all of him in. She looked confused and troubled as she stared into his eyes.

"You have silver eyes" she stated without even a hello.

"I know, I always have and most likely always will" came the blunt response from Percy without showing any emotion like he did to Grover.

"I get the sense you don't like me" said the girl without showing any emotion either. It was like they were having a contest between each other.

"Well, when someone is slightly rude to you by not saying hello you don't really form a good opinion of them" muttered Percy as he looked away from the girl and stared at a lot of other bodies of various genders what were laid out around the room or more like tent.

"Alright, my names Annabeth and I am daughter of Athena" said Annabeth, introducing herself.

"Wait a second, your the daughter of what?" said a confused Percy.

"I said Athena, weren't you listening" snapped Annabeth, already starting to get annoyed at him.

"Isn't she a Greek Goddess?" asked a bewilded Percy.

"Of cause she is."

"I didn't think they existed?" said Percy as he laid back down as his back began to ache again.

"Why would you be here if they weren't?"

"I don't actually know where here is. You see, I'm new here" clarified Percy to a suddenly understanding Annabeth.

"Well, why didn't you say so?" snapped Annabeth, again.

"I thought Grover or someone would have already told you plus I didn't really get a good chance" mumbled Percy again, hoping Annabeth wouldn't hear. Luckily for him, she didn't.

"Well, you know all the God's and Goddess's of Greek mythology?" Asked Annabeth like she was starting to teach a class full of children.

"Yeah" came the sceptical response.

"Well, they're all real, every single one of them. Including the minor God's as well. And they're children are known as demi-god's, which I suppose you already know" explained Annabeth as Percy just nodded along.

"Where you are now is a place called camp half-blood. It's a place for demi-god's like us where we can be safe" further explained Annabeth before being interrupted.

"Wait a second, you said us, meaning that you think I am a demi-god" interrupted a gawking Percy.

"If you weren't, you wouldn't have gotten through the barrier" clarified Annabeth.

"As to which God you are the son of, I have no idea" continued Annabeth seeing Percy about to ask the obvious question.

"How do you know that you are the daughter of Athena then?"

"Most God's claim there children when they get here at some point, most of the time its within the first few days of them entering camp. The God's symbol will appear above your head when the God is claiming you. You know what each God's symbol is, right?" Percy nodded but still with his dumbfound expression on his face, like he couldn't believe what he was hearing.

"Good, you will be staying the in Hermes cabin as that is where all the new demi-god's stay until there God parent has claimed them. Will that be a problem?" Asked Annabeth in quick succession, like she had done this a million times before.

"Shouldn't be" replied Percy as he tried to come back to grips with himself and get himself under control.

"Good, by the way, do you live with your Mother or Father?" Asked Annabeth as she turned around from walking out the tent door.

"I have always lived with my foster parents" said Percy in response, not willing to give anything else away to someone he had just met.

"Ok, so your God parent could be a God or Goddess then?"

"Yes, I suppose it could be" clarified Percy as he started to feel his back with a pained expression on his face, again.

"Cool, I will see you around then. I will let the camp director know what he needs to know instead of you saying the same thins you have said to me over again. And Grover will be waiting for you outside to show you around camp" informed Annabeth before she made her way out of the infirmary tent, at least, that's what Percy thought it was.

"Great" muttered Percy under his breath so no one else would hear him. He looked around him and made sure his ice mask was on again because the majority of the people in the infirmary were males and he still hated them with a passion after what his foster Father was doing to him and especially what he did to him.

Percy laid there, thinking about everything he had been told. He still couldn't believe that one of his parents was a God. He had no preference which God it was and he really didn't care. With that thought, he fell asleep as his back started to flare up in pain, again.

A FEW HOURS LATER

Just like Annabeth had said, when Percy walked out of the infirmary, Grover was standing there waiting for him whilst trying to chat up a pair of extremely good looking girls.

"Ah, Aphrodite girls, always live to entertain ya" breathed Grover as he stared after them. They often turned around and giggled at him staring and blew him kisses as they continued to walk off.

"Sure, whatever you say" commented Percy, not sure what else to say.

"Lets show you around Perce, good to see you feeling better man."

Grover put his arms around Percy's shoulder and dragged him down a path where there were other demi-god's. Some were sword fighting of to the side, some were trying out Archery for the first time and epically failing at the art. Percy grinned smugly to himself and was thinking how he could show them a thing or two about Archery.

"And here are the cabins, one for each God and Goddess" informed Grover as he dragged Percy, again, to 12 different cabins, shaped in a large U.

"The cabins are for Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Hestia, Artemis, Apollo, Athena, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus and Hermes. I guess Annabeth told you that you will be staying with the Hermes kids because you haven't been claimed yet" said Grover as he pointed to a cabin on the right had side of the cabins forming a U. That cabin looked like a normal cottage but it had some scrolls littering the outside, showing that he was the messenger of the God's.

2Well, it doesn't look to bad" commented Percy as he evaluated the cabin.

"Exactly, lighten up man, this is one of the best places in the world. The best if you ask me" said a grinning Grover as she playfully shoved Percy in the shoulder. Percy smiled at him to show that he was feeling happy, he just didn't show it a lot of the time. His heart wasn't really linked with his face a lot of the time. Neither were his emotions really.

They moved on past the cabins and ended up in the sword fighting Arena.

"Ya think that you'll be any good at sword fighting, Perce?" Asked Grover from beside Percy as Percy looked down at the demi-god's fighting within the arena.

"I'm more of an Archery kind of guy I think. Not brilliant with swords to be honest with you" said a guilty looking Percy.

"Not anything to worry about Bud. I'm no good with a sword either, means you most likely ain't the son of the big three who are all brilliant with swords" commented Grover as they walked past the sword fighting arena and there next stop was the Archery arena.

Percy stopped at this arena and looked down at the rows of bows all waiting to be used. There were no demi-god's in this arena and Percy was longing to go down and start firing arrows at all the targets laid out at the end of the arena.

Grover saw the look in Percy's eye and chuckled to himself as he went over to Percy and put his arm around his shoulder's like it had been.

"Come on , Perce. You can do that later. We need to get on with the tour man."

They walked away from the arena but only a few minuets later, a group of girls came around the corner as we neared.

"Grover!" Each of them squealed at seeing the satyr walking towards them.

"Haha, more daughters of Aphrodite, sorry Perce, tour's on standby. Why don't you go and settle in in the Hermes cabin, the head counsellor should be along shortly as lunch will finish shortly. See ya, Pal" shouted Grover as he ran towards the giggling girls. Percy shook his head at his friend and walked back towards the God's cabin's.

He made his way to the Hermes cabin and took a bed where there was no laundry scattered on it. He guessed that there was no one using it because there were no belongings surrounding it either like picture or posters like all the other beds had around them.

He lay down on the bed and look up at the ceiling, thinking about how as soon as he woke up, he was jogging right off to the Archery arena and having a good few hours and relaxation. For him anyway. He needed no effort when firing an arrow from a bow.

A/N- I WANT TO MAKE ONE THING CLEAR BEOFRE I FORGET, THE AINCENT LAWS DONT APPLY TO ARTMIS BECAUSE AT THE TIME, EVERYONE THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS HAVING NO CHILDEREN SO THE LAW WAS MADE TO ALL THE GODS EXCEPT HER. THATS IN THIS STORY ANYWAY. ANNAETH HAS NOT JOINED YET BUT AS YOU CAN TELL BY HER ATTITUDE, SHE WILL JOIN PRESENTLY.
