OK ON WITH THE SHOW!

Welcome to Camp If You Like It or Not

It was a dark and stormy night…

wait, you're probably thinking "Does every story start like that?" but this story actually did start on a dark and stormy night.

So, as I was saying: I was walking home on the crowded streets of New York City. My long, blonde, wet bangs drooped in my eyes. Again. I sighed and flipped them out of my eyes. I had to stay late at Goode High School to finish class work, again. Then I got in trouble with the teacher and had to stay late to help the janitor, again. Too many wrong things happened there in my life, even though I'm only a freshman. I shook my head and started to walk home.

While I'm walking let me take this time to tell you about myself, since I practically have all the time in the world.

I'm not like other demigods/demititans (whatever). My mom never lied to me. I've known who my father was since I can remember. She never made up a fake story, she just let me know. That's one of the reasons I love her so much, not only for her being my mom. I'm also different because I talk to my dad. We talk through letters, of course, because of the no phone rule. He doesn't have rules to keep him from seeing me. I've only seen him once or twice, though, to keep away from Mount Olympus. It's always with mom. He loves her. I'm glad.

I finally came up to my apartment complex. Soaked from the heavy rain, I trudged up the stairs and walked to my mom and mine's apartment. Taking out the key, I opened the door to find my mom reading a book on the couch. Once she saw me she got up and walked over.

"Janitor again?" she asked. I nodded. She hugged me.

"You're freezing! Go and take a hot shower. I saved you some dinner. Go on now," she said, practically pushing me towards the bathroom.

"Alright alright!" I laughed, shutting the door. She was right, a nice shower would help. I quickly finished in the shower and put on sweats and a comfy t-shirt. I looked into my gold rimmed green eyes and sighed.

"You're doing great. You keep doing the right things. You're doing good Seth," I said to myself. Dad wrote that in his last letter.

I ate dinner quickly and went to bed early. Once I hit my head on the pillow, I was out.

Dream

I knew enough stories to know where I was standing. Mount Olympus. I peeked inside the throne room to see the gods fighting over something.

"He's still around, I can feel it," Zeus said.

"I can too. It's like he's planning something already," Artemis said, closing her eyes.

"That's impossible! Kronos was killed by the very one that let him in his body! He can't be back!" Poseidon said. Kronos killed! I felt the color drain from my face. That's why he hasn't been responding to my letters… I felt myself falling through the ground into blackness.

Next Morning

I woke up in a sweat. I got out of bed and ran to my mom's room.

"DAD IS DEAD?" I yelled. She looked up with sad eyes.

"I don't know… How do think that?" she asked. I told her about my dream, but she just nodded, "I still don't know…"

"Do you believe he's gone?" I asked.

"No, your father is smarter than that," she replied, "Now get ready for school; you're going to be late."

I ran into my room and got ready.

I think I was that only one that was sad about his death, now that I look back…

I walked to school because mom had to go to work. It seemed like a normal day. The streets were crowded, though I still felt alone, like I always do. Ten minutes later I was Goode High School, or what I call, jail.

I was late (again) so I had to do detention before I went to class. I kept sketching random scenes and different figures in my notebook. After fifteen minutes of detention I was able to leave and go to class. My mind was everywhere but there.

After class, I was putting books in my locker when someone approached me. Percy. For some reason, Percy and I've always seemed like natural enemies.

"Seth, I need to talk to you," he began.

"What? Are you here to make fun of me too?"

"No, why-"

"Because I have ADHD and dyslexia stuff. It's hell! You don't need to make it worse."

He looked at me in shock, "Why would I? I have it too."

"Oh, and now you're trying to comfort me?" Do you see what I have to live with?

"Seth, I'm just trying to tell you something. I need you to listen for one second," he said. I leaned against the lockers.

"OK, talk."

"I think you're something different, Seth."

I tried to act surprised. I knew this was coming, "How so?"

"You're just- well, maybe- oh gods how am I going to say this?"

"Say what?" Man, I didn't know I was that good of an actor!

"Just come with m-"

"With you? Heck no! I'm good," I started to walk away. He kept calling me to come back but I wouldn't. I knew where he was trying to take me. The one place where dad never wanted me to go. Camp half-blood.

When I finally got home, I went to the mailbox. There was only one letter. It was for me. There was no return address. I opened it up. I knew exactly who wrote it even with only one line on it:

I'm not dead.

"Something good in the mail?" a voice asked behind me. I turned around quickly. Percy.

"Can you just leave me alone?" I asked him. A girl stepped out from behind him. She had blonde hair and brown eyes.

"We need you to come with us," she said softly.

"Didn't I already tell you no?"

"I didn't want to do this…" Percy sighed. He lunged toward me. I took a step back. They both came at me at the same time. I had to do it. Right when they were going to take me down I slowed down time. Stepping out of the way, they fell on the ground. They looked around in surprise. My mom ran down the stairs.

"Seth what are you doing?" she yelled at me. That's the thing, she can tell if me OR dad use our powers. I always wonder if that's the reason why dad fell in love with her.

I had to! I mouthed. She just shook her head.

"Ma'am, we need to bring your son to camp, and I guess you know what that means?" the girl asked. My mom just nodded. She looked at me with sad eyes.

"I'm sorry Seth, I couldn't keep you from it anymore," she said sadly. Only I knew the real story behind that message.

"Mom, no…"

"Can I have a second to talk to him?" she asked them.

"Sure, we'll be in the parking lot," Percy said and they turned around and walked away. I looked at mom.

"Why? Dad never wanted me there, and you know that!" I said to her.

"It's too late now. Just stay in the unclaimed cabin and wait until the summer's over. Then you don't have to go back. OK?"

"Fine," I agreed miserably. I went up to my apartment, grabbed my things, and gave mom the letter. She opened it, read it, and smiled at me.

"What did I tell you?" she asked.

"That you didn't know," I laughed. She hugged me and pushed me on my way. Once in the parking lot, I looked back at her and waved. She waved back. I walked with Percy and the girl to the street.

That's when I knew everything my parents told me would matter.

I have to keep everything a secret now in a place where my identity could be found out easily.

Oh joy, here we go…

Well, this is my last chapter before I go to camp, so I'll see you when I get back!
