Eh, so all i'm going to say is that i don't like this chapter very much.
I've re-written it like, 3 times, and i still can't get it right.
So, i'm just going with this one.
Its really short, but i hope to have another update soon to make up for this one
Longer AN at the bottom (:
Read on!
When I opened my eyes, I let out a little gasp. We were standing on top of a hill, and looking down was a little camp. Well, actually a really big camp. I saw Nico smiling at me, in my wide-eyed glory. I was still gripping his hand tightly.
I herd him chuckle softly. "You can let go of my hand know if you want."
"Oh!" I squeaked. "Sorry." I could feel my face heating up, and I turned my head away from him.
"Come on, we've got to get to the Big House." Nico waved his hand toward the….well the big house.
I followed him, taking in my surroundings as I did. As we walked, I could hear the kids whispering. I glanced around, and they were all looking at me and Nico. I looked up at him, and saw his face was stiff. In the short time I've known him, I'd never seen him like this. It was kind of frightening.
Apparently, I was walking too slowly for him cause he grabbed my hand and pulled me along faster.
When we got to the big house, Nico opened up the door quickly, and then slammed it shut. I looked up at him questionably. When he saw my face, he just shook his head.
Across the room, there was two people playing chess, a man in a wheel chair, and a guy with a diet coke in his hand. "Check mate." The wheel chair man said a slight smile on his face. The diet coke dude groaned.
"Chiron," Nico called out.
Apparently the guy in the wheel chair was 'Chiron'. He looked up at Nico, then at me. He had a pleasant smile on his face, and rolled toward us. He looked back at the diet coke man.
"Dionysus, we have a new camper," Chiron prompted. Whoa whoa, Dionysus? Like, as in the Greek god of wine? Who names their kid that?
Dionysus rolled his eyes and walked over to us.
"Why don't we sit down?" Chiron gestured over to four chairs, sitting in the corner. We all walked over and sat, me and Nico on one side, Dionysus and Chiron on the other.
"So," Chiron said. "I'm going to guess that Nico hasn't told you anything?" I shook my head.
"Okay, well I'm going to go ahead and say it. You know those Greek gods you've herd about?" he waited for me to nod my head.
"Well their real," Dionysus said. "Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, me." He pointed to himself. I stared at Nico, and he just nodded.
I looked at all of them. They must be on crack. But….it really all made since. All those Greek myths my mother used to read to me, it seemed to explain everything.
I looked up at Dionysus. "Prove it."
He smiled, "I was hoping you'd ask that." Nothing happened for a minute, then I started to feel vines growing around my legs. I smelt a faint hint of grape. Soon I was strapped into my seat with vines.
Dionysus looked at me. "Prove enough for you?" I nodded.
Chiron started talking again. "Sometimes, a god or goddess sees a human they like, and, well you know the rest. The children that come here are called Heroes. Or sometimes they go by demi-gods or half bloods, hence the name 'Camp Half Blood'. This is your only safe heaven from all the monsters. How old are you dear?"
"Sixteen."
"Alright, then you should be getting claimed sometime soon." Chiron said, nodding with Dionysus
"What?" I looked at Nico, not understanding.
"Its required that the gods claim their kids at thirteen, ever since Percy made them after the last war." Nico explained to me
Then I felt a presence in the room. It was a presence that made me feel all warm and fuzzy in side. I looked up to see a boy, looking about seventeen with sunglasses on, walking towards us.
Chiron smiled, but looked surprised. "Lord Apollo, what a pleasant surprise. May I ask why you're here?"
"I've come to talk to my daughter." He said smiling at me.
