A/N: If you didn't read the preface, then I am not abandoning my other fic! Some notes are that all characters are around 15, a6, and 16, whether they graduated or not. And Kurt is a sophomore in the year 2012-13, and in this fic Finn and Kurt's parents got married in Freshman year, not Junior. And all of the characters are around 15, 16, and 17. And please don't complain about ships. Sorry Finchel lovers, this has Faberry in it. I've just recently been obsessed with Faberry, don't get me wrong, I love Finchel, so don't think I'm not. If you want, you can go back to the preface and read it so you know what characters have what godly parent, but if you don't then that's cool, you don't have to. And I may get some things from the Percy Jackson/Heroes of Olympus wrong. I'm doing my best, I even consulted The Lost Hero for help, but that may not be enough, so I apologize in advance!

Chapter 1: I'm a What?
Tuesday June 4th 2013 7:15 AM, the Hummel-Hudson household
"Kurt Hummel! Hurry up!" yelled Burt Hummel, a bald man wearing a baseball cap and flannel shirt, up the stairs.
"I'm coming!" scowled Kurt Hummel as he descended down the stairs.
Kurt Hummel was a stylish 16 year old. He had chestnut hair that was always coiffed and blue glass eyes, and pale skin. He wore designer clothes and had one of the most beautiful voices, which he often used to sing.
He entered the living room with his schoolbag to find his brother Finn Hudson, his father Burt, and his best friend, Noah Puckerman. Lots of people wouldn't usually think that someone like Kurt would have a best friend like Noah. But Noah wasn't bad, he actually really nice, he was just crippled. Noah had crutches for reasons unknown. But he had been Kurt's best friend since 6th grade, and Kurt wasn't going to dump him just because he entered high school and it wasn't cool to hang out with him.
"Hey Noah! Ready to go guys?" Kurt asked his brother and best friend.
Noah rolled his eyes. "We've been ready for 20 minutes. The question is, are you ready?"
"Ha ha. Yes, let's go," Kurt said grabbing his keys to his Navigator and heading out the door, the boys following.
"Have a good day at school, boys!" Burt called after them.
"Thanks! You too!" All three boys said at the same time over their shoulders.
Finn started towards the passenger door when Noah stopped him with one of his crutches.
"Nah ah, Finnessa, my turn up front. You got it yesterday," Noah said.
"C'mon Puck! Please?" Finn asked.
"Nah ah, backseat," Noah said.
Finn looked at Kurt who was opening the driver's side of the car. "Kurt, tell him to get in the backseat," he pleaded.
"No, it's his turn, you get in the backseat," Kurt said.
"But I'm your brother!" Finn protested.
And your point is? He's my best friend, now get in the backseat," Kurt said.
Finn grumbled some more but got into the backseat none the less.
7:30am, William McKinley High hallways
They arrived at school and were instantly surrounded by girls. But they were there for Kurt. Kurt has always found this weird, girls always fawning over him without him trying, even though he didn't like girls at all. The only girl it hadn't worked on was Rachel Berry. And what sucked was that the power or whatever he had, didn't work on guys, only girls. Kurt was pretty used to having all these girls vying for his affection.
"Ooh Kurt, Kurt! I made you a bracelet!" said an Asian girl, Tina.
"Tina, you have a boyfriend, go see him. I'll see you in Glee Club, same goes for you too Mercedes, and Sugar, you have boyfriends too. See you later," Kurt said and waved the girls off. They stalked off, looking disappointed.
"Man, come on! How do you get all these girls falling over you? I can't even get the Cheerio with the neck brace to give me the time of day," Finn said as they walked down the halls.
"I thought you were dating hot American Jewish princess?" Noah asked.
"Nah, we split up because Rachel's dads sent her to this camp 2 months ago and she can't even have a phone! So we decided we couldn't do the whole long distance thing, so we split up," Finn said glumly.
"But you miss her?" Kurt asked.
"Like crazy. She was my soul mate, the love of my life. But we split up, so I have to try and get over her," Finn said.
"Well, if you two truly are soul mates, then you'll be together soon," Kurt said.
"Spoken like a true philosopher," Noah said.
"Shut up. C'mon, let's get to class. I don't want detention, we have Glee and then I have Cheer practice," Kurt said as they headed into the special help class.
Yes, Kurt was in a special help class, not because he was dumb, but because he had dyslexia and ADHD. He couldn't sit still or read. He was always moving and couldn't pay attention. Odd thing was, that he could read Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus books perfectly. So, the teacher usually gave Kurt his lessons verbally, and when Kurt was supposed to be reading, he read either of the two book series.
Noah had dyslexia too, but no ADHD. He was there to help Kurt pay attention and calm down; Noah got his lessons verbally also. But Finn… he really was just dumb. He had to have help in everything because he couldn't understand any of it, at least Noah and Kurt could do Math without extra help, as long as they weren't word problems.
3pm, the Choir Room
"Hey Mr. Schuester!" the three boys called as they entered the room.
"Hey boys, have a seat, I have exciting news today!" clapped the over gelled History teacher. "But I have to wait until everybody gets here."
"That's okay, I can't wait though," Kurt said.
Kurt took a seat in the front where he normally sat, and Noah sat next to him, and Finn sat behind them. Glee was Kurt's favorite time of the day because he could be who he wanted to be and express himself through his favorite way, song. When Rachel Berry had left for some camp in New York and left the Glee Club, her soloist spot opened up, and it went to Kurt.
Kurt was the main soloist, but there were 2 others that handled the duets normally, and those somebody's were Jesse St. James, a male version of Rachel Berry, a full blown diva, and his girlfriend, Nicki Lake, blonde violet eyed captain of the Cheerios that was only there because of Jesse. There were other people in Glee besides those 5; there was Tina Cohen Chang, Mike Chang, Artie Abrams, Sugar Motta, Joe Hart, Mercedes Jones, and her boyfriend Shawn.
Soon the room was filling as the girls came in and goggled Kurt and their boyfriends dragging them away. As soon as everyone was seated Mr. Schue started the news. "Okay everybody, Nationals are in 4 days in New York, so I want everyone to think of some numbers for us to perform. One solo, one duet, and one group numbers. Any ideas?"
"MJ!" somebody shouted
"Celine Dion!" another shouted
Kurt raised his hand. 'Yes Kurt?" Mr. Schue called.
"I want to use their ideas, I think we should do 'My Heart Will Go On' as the solo, 'Human Nature' as the duet, and 'ABC' as the group number." Kurt said.
"That's Brilliant! Any objection to some Celine and MJ?" Mr. Schue asked. No one objected. "Good, so Kurt, you'll handle the solo, Puck and Mercedes will handle the duet, and Tina, Mike, and Kurt will handle the leads on the group number."
"Congrats on the duet Noah!" Kurt turned to his best friend and gave his Mohawk a pat on the head. "You'll do awesome."
"You will too. You've got a killer voice." Noah said. Kurt blushed.
"Thank you. I just really hope Jesse and Nicki don't go all diva on Schue, oh, too late, there they go." Kurt said looking over at the couple now cornering Mr. Schuester in a corner, yelling at him.
"I'll go save him, again," said Kurt standing up in his chair. He walked over to there the trio was.
'Excuse me, Mr. Schue? Can I practice?" Kurt asked.
Jesse and Nicki backed off of Schue and Jesse was now glaring at Kurt while Nicki beamed at him.
"Oh, yes, Kurt, that would be nice. Go ahead," Mr. Schue said and mouthed 'Thank you.'
Jesse and Nicki returned to their seats and Kurt went over to the band and asked them to play the song.
(My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion)
(performed by Kurt Hummel)
Kurt: Every night in my dreams I see you, I feel you That is how I know you go on
Far across the distance And spaces between us You have come to show you go on
Near, far, wherever you are I believe that the heart does go on Once more you open the door And you're here in my heart
Love can touch us one time And last for a lifetime And never let go 'till we're gone
Love was when I loved you One true time I hold to In my life we'll always go on
Near, far, wherever you are I believe that the heart does go on Once more you open the door And my heart will go on and on
You're here, there's nothing I fear And I know that my heart will go on We'll stay forever this way You are safe in my heart And my heart will go on and on
Everybody was on their feet clapping, well except Artie, seeing as he was I a wheelchair, and some people had tears in their eyes, including Kurt himself.
"Okay, that's it for today. Remember, come packed and ready at the airport at 8pm on Thursday. And don't forget to practice!" Mr. Schue said dismissing everyone to leave.
Kurt picked up his bag and walked out with Noah and Finn. They go to the boy's locker room and Noah left to go sit in the bleachers.
Kurt and Finn entered the locker room and were immediately met with taunts from one Dave Karofsky.
"Hey Lady Hummel, girls locker room is next door," he called.
"Shut it, Yogi Bear. You're just jealous that he can get a girl without even trying and you can't get one girl to look at you," Finn said, defending Kurt.
"Do you want to go, Hudson?" Karofsky asked slamming his locker shut.
"Yeah, I think I do. I don't like you bagging on my brother and calling his a lady even though he clearly isn't seeing as he gets more action than you do," Finn said stepping towards Karofsky.
"Guys, we don't need to get into this," said Shawn stepping in between the two.
"No, I think we do," said Finn.
"No, Finn. He's right, don't do this. Think of Shawn, Mike, and Artie. They need you, you are their quarterback, I don't want you suspended because you got into a fight with this Neanderthal," Kurt said pulling on Finn's arm.
Finn growled at Karofsky and turned and went over to his locker and slammed it open. Kurt went over to his locker and grabbed his uniform and went into a stall and changed.
He emerged 3 minutes later and headed out onto the field. He met up with the other Cheerios who goggled him until Coach Sylvester came out and yelled at them.
5pm, McKinley High football field
Kurt had worked hard and followed every instruction Sue gave them. She had seemed a lot more aggressive that day and for a second Kurt saw her flash a sickly grey color. But then she turned back so he figured he must have imagined it.
But then when everybody had gone home except him, she flashed the sickly grey again.
"Are you okay Coach?" Kurt asked. "You look a little grey."
She flashed him a devious smile full of pointed yellow teeth. "Ah. The mist has failed your demigod eyes and you are seeing me for what I really am?"
She flashed grey again and Kurt asked, "What you truly are?"
"I'm surprised you haven't figured it out yet Porcelain. Well, since you haven't, I'm a harpy, and you're dead meat," she snarled as she lunged for Kurt, yellow teeth bared.
Kurt felt a tug on his shirt and was pulled back and the Coach missed him by an inch.
"Run Kurt!" Noah yelled and he hit Coach Sylvester in the chest with one of his crutches. Kurt did as he was told and turned and ran, Noah right behind him.
"Did she say she was a harpy? What the hell did that mean?" Kurt asked as he was running.
"I'll explain later. Just run!" Noah yelled.
Kurt looked back and saw a grey and ugly figure flying towards them. Kurt picked up his pace and ran faster than he ever had before. They reached the Navigator and Noah yelled, "Give me your keys!"
"Are you crazy?! You're crippled!" Kurt yelled.
"Just give me your damn keys!" Noah yelled.
Kurt threw him his keys and scrambled in the passenger's side. Noah threw his crutches at the harpy thing with incredible speed and then got in the driver's side of the car. He put the keys in the ignition and stepped on the gas.
"Will you please explain to me what the hell is going on?!" Kurt asked.
"Not now, we have to get you safe first," Noah said.
"What?!"
"Not now Kurt! I have to get you to safety first!" Noah yelled.
Kurt left it alone and then they were at Kurt's house. Noah jumped out of the car and Kurt followed.
"Stay in the car," Noah said.
"No way. You won't tell me what's going on and how come you can walk all of a sudden?" Kurt asked.
"Fine, but hurry up," Noah said, completely ignoring Kurt's question.
They ran into the house and Burt saw them and greeted them. "Hello boys, I-" he stopped when he saw Noah walking.
"It happened then?" Burt asked.
"It did. We have to get him to camp," Noah said.
"What the hell are you guys talking about?! I'm still confused as to why she was a freaking harpy and then tried to attack me! And why the hell can Noah walk all of a sudden?!" Kurt demanded.
"Puck, you take him to camp. I'll stay and protect Finn and Carole and explain everything to them. Kurt, go upstairs and pack a bag. Just one. No electronics, including your phone, laptop, and iPod, and take your sai swords. You may need them." Burt said looking to Kurt.
"Dad? But why?" Kurt cried. "Are you sending me away? Did I do something wrong?"
"No Kurt. Puck will explain everything on the way to camp in New York. This is for your own safety. I promise," Burt said. "Now go, I need to talk to Puck. Also, change out of your Cheerios uniform into something comfortable, you don't need to worry about looks where you're going."
Kurt nodded, feeling tears sting his eyes as he went upstairs to pack. He did as he was told and changed into some skinny jeans, not super tight like he normally wore, but they were comfortable, he also put on a long sleeved turtleneck. He got out his biggest suitcase and put his moisturizing lotions, his sai swords, some jeans, shirts, and other clothes. He also put in some hair gel, his teddy bear that he's had since he was 5, and lastly some pictures of the Glee Club, his friends, and his family.
You'll be alright dear, I promise, said a female voice in Kurt's head that he had been hearing since he was 11. She always consoled Kurt when he was hurting or told him to stand up to bullies. Sometimes, the voice even gave him witty remarks to say.
Kurt came down the stairs with his suitcase and saw his dad and Noah deep in discussion. When they saw him they broke off their conversation.
"You ready to go, bud?" Burt asked him.
"Yeah," Kurt said solemnly.
"It'll be okay. Puck will explain everything," Burt said.
Kurt nodded and then ran over to his dad and hugged him tight, letting a few tears escape.
"Hey bud, it'll be alright. I love you," Burt said, hugging Kurt.
"I love you too," Kurt said. "When will I get to see you?"
"Well, you can call-"
"But I thought we weren't allowed phones?"
"Special type of calling. You'll see. And then you can maybe visit when we know it's safe," Burt said.
"Why can't you visit me?" Kurt asked.
"Because I'm not allowed in the camp. You have to have something special. And Kurt, you have that something special," Burt said. "Now go, before she finds you."
"C'mon Kurt," Noah said grabbing Kurt's suitcase and going to put it in the car.
Kurt said his final goodbyes' and then followed Noah out to the car. Kurt noticed that Noah didn't have shoes on his feet. He didn't have feet for that matter, he had hooves.
"Noah? What the fu-?"
"-dge is wrong with my feet? I'll explain in the car," Noah said finishing Kurt's sentence.
Kurt climbed into the passenger side, while Noah got in the driver's side. They drove only 5 miles when Kurt said, "Okay, start explaining, now," he said giving Noah his Bitch glare.
'Oh, okay, wow. Um, so first things first. You're a demigod," Noah said.
"A demigod? Like half mortal, half god? Are you kidding me?' Kurt asked.
"No, I'm not, your mother didn't die when you were born, she left. She was a goddess. Don't know which one, but I have my suspicions. Anyways, I'm your protector, have been since 6th grade. I'm also a satyr. Sue was a harpy. She was, good, or so we thought, she said she wouldn't pounce on any demigods in the area the mist failed their eye. Obviously, it failed yours today so she pounced," Noah explained.
"Wait, so there are more of us around here?" Kurt asked.
"Yes, remember how kids disappear without explanation in 7th, 8th, 9th and even this year? And there are some from Westerville also," Noah said.
Kurt's eyes bugged, "So that's why they disappeared! They left for their own safety!"
"Yes, Sue got to them. You were the last one that I was aware of," Noah explained.
"So, if the mist never would have failed me, then what?" Kurt asked.
"Then you probably never would have left. Your dad thought it was in your best interest not to know," Noah shrugged.
"Not to know?! Whe-" Kurt suddenly felt very woozy.
"This is to Percy Jackson for me. I think I need to hurl, pull over," Kurt said.
Noah pulled off to the side of the road and Kurt got out of the car and Kurt dry heaved over by some bushes, but nothing would come out.
"Are you alright?" Noah asked getting out of the car.
"Yeah, I'm fine," Kurt lied. All of a sudden he was really dizzy and then he was falling and then everything went black.
Wednesday June 5th, 4:30pm, the Infirmary
Next thing Kurt knew he was waking up to a pounding headache and he looks to his left and Noah is sitting ther5e next to him.
"You're awake!" Noah exclaims.
Kurt groans, "How long was I out?" he asks.
"About a day. It's okay though. I did spring something pretty big on you," Noah said.
Kurt then remembered everything from the previous day. "Where am I?" he askes.
Noah smiles. "Welcome to camp Half-Blood."
