Oh, I know I didn't get the amount of reviews I wanted, but I was so excited that I wrote the chapter early and couldn't wait to upload it. Thanks to lil dynamic and WaterFairyJuvia for reviewing :)

II
Sydney
Well, now it all makes sense.

If Percy Jackson didn't rescue us, I'm sure I might've won, but with Percy, I KNOW we would've won. If Jane and I had fought, anyways. Percy just took the Scythian dracanae, as he called it, down by himself.

I had so many questions, though. For example, "What's the difference between humans and demigods aside from the parentage?" or "Do demigods have cool powers?"

Jane stood there in shock about what he just said, and I didn't blame her. I was surprised, and now we were going to some...camp? I thought, Maybe it's a camp for demigods. Then I mentally slapped myself. Duh! Of course it is. After some convincing to Jane, he lead us to the sidewalk, and we began walking.

"Come on," Percy said, "I'll take you to camp in my car."

We went to his car. It was a blue mustang, with black leather interior. A very nice car that I immediately got excited to ride in it. I mean, who wouldn't? Before we got in, Percy told us a little about himself. Percy was an 18 year old demigod who had known he was one for six years. He didn't tell us much more then that until he took us to the car, which, I would LOVE to have. It was a nice car! Jane didn't look so impressed though. She hadn't acted normal since Percy came along, and I knew it was because she didn't trust him. What was there not to trust, I couldn't figure out.

"Either one of you can take shotgun," Percy told us. "I'll you somethings on the way there instead of there, so by the time we arrive you know most of what you'll need."

Jane glanced at me, barely acknowledging Percy. "You take shotgun."

I smiled, and got in. I was excited about being in the nice sports car, and I couldn't help it. The leather interior was memorizing to me. I ran my finger over the leather seat I was sitting in. It felt different then I imagined. This car was much nicer then anything I'd been in, much more comfortable. I allowed myself to take in the scenery as Percy pulled away from Central Park, while Jane sat with her arms crossed in the backseat, as I could barely see in the rear-view mirror.

"So," Percy said. "Where to began."

He stopped at a red light.

"Okay, for one, I'm guessing you're Sydney," he pointed to me. "And she's Jane?"

I smiled. "Yeah. You've got it!"

Jane simply sighed at my cheerful comment. Sometimes I wonder if that girl drinks a drink made from gloominess. That would explain a lot.

"Okay," Percy bit his lip, as he started driving again. "How are you guys handling the half god thing?"

My smile disappeared. I was so excited about the car that I'd forgotten about the entire reason we were driving for. That Jane and I were half god and going to some camp called Camp Half-Blood, for demigods, what we apparently are. I was thinking about how I was "handling" it, when Jane spoke up.

"I don't...so, you're telling me the Greek and Roman gods are real, and one of them is OUR parent?"

Percy nodded. "You worded that weird, though. Yeah, either a male Greek/Roman god is your father, or a Greek/Roman goddess is your mother. My father is Poseidon, god of the Seas. I inherited powers from him, like most demigods do."

I raised an eyebrow, and said in a tone that made Jane look at me funny, "Powers...what kind of powers?

Percy apparently noticed too. He looked at me as soon as he pulled up to another red light. "It depends on who your godly parent is. Why?"

I shook my head, a memory coming back to me. The memory soured my previously curious and cheerful mood.

*FLASHBACK*

I was on the subway with my father. We were heading to my school in West Manhattan. I was excitedly talking to him and he smiled at me. He tickled me slightly, making me laugh. As a kindergartner, I wanted to play more, but my father shook his head.

"Remember Sydney, this is a public place. We'll play after I pick you up after school."

He continued to smile at me. I swung my feet back and forth until we got to our stop. The rest of the time, noting happened. I made it to school, my dad kissed me goodbye, kindergarten was normal. That was, until recess.

"Time for recess kids!" Mrs. Brown, my teacher said. She was a young woman with brown eyes and hair. She was somewhat plump, but I never noticed.

"YAY!" The class exclaimed in unison. We all stood up and got ready to go outside. It was almost summer, so we were all excited for the warm weather and long recess. When we got outside, that's when I discovered something new about myself I had no previous knowledge of.

I was out by the fence, looking at the park nearby. It wasn't Central, but it was still stunning to look at. Dogs running through the grass, swaying gently in the summer wind. What I did next, I can't quite recall, but I know that I was under the playground tree, which was also by the fence, in the shade. My hand was against the shaded metal of the fence, and it wasn't as hot as the rest of the fence.

Actually, it was a lot colder.

Where my hand was, there was something. I don't remember what, but it was cold. My fingers were touching it, but after that, I don't remember. In fact, I can't remember anything else of that school day until my dad picked me up. It's strange, before now I could remember...

"Sydney?" Jane asked from the backseat.

"Hm?"

"Are you okay?"

I looked out the window. We where out of the city, but Percy had pulled over and was looking at me. He had worried expression on his face. I turned to the backseat to see Jane, who looked more worried then Percy, and she looked tense.

Percy sighed. "Thank the gods you're okay. I guess you had a blackout or something...?"

I shrugged, looking over my shoulder again at Jane. She had relaxed, but still tense. Percy started the car, and began driving again. We drove a long time until I looked out and saw strawberry fields.

"So...I can see we're out of Manhattan," I started, "But where exactly is this camp?"

Percy looked like he was remembering something. "Not very far from here, I think."

"Oh."

I looked out at the window, the snow still falling. I hadn't noticed it for a while, but since I didn't have any questions in mind, I decided to look out the window. ADHD had gotten the best of me. I was content at looking outside until I heard Jane humming something. As much as I cared for my friend, I didn't want to hear her humming Stairway to Heaven or whatever she was humming.

I looked over at Percy, who was concentrating on the road, at least, from what I could tell. Soon I began to drum my fingers on the seat. I was getting impatient. Where was this camp?

Jane finally spoke up. "So, are these powers...great to have? Against monsters?"

Percy nodded. "Yeah, sometimes. I'm always hunted down because I'm more powerful. I mean, being a son of Poseidon, one of the Big Three, which are Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades, I have a stronger scent. See, each demigods has a scent to monsters. It's sort of like how meat is to a dog or something. If you have a parent who is, let's say, Athena, goddess of wisdom and battle strategy, you have a stronger scent to monsters then someone who is the child of Hecate, goddess of magic."

"So..." I asked, "Powers aren't always good?"

Percy shrugged. "Yeah, I guess so."

He then pointed to the left. "There's camp!"

Jane and I both looked to the left. We were on Long Island, I could tell. I saw a pine tree with a dragon (WHAT?), the ocean of course, cabins arranged in a horse shoe shaped fashion, a farm house that was sky blue, lots of people, a Climbing wall, a forest, flying horses (AGAIN, WHAT?), and so much more. It was a wonderful sight.

Percy pulled in his car, and we got out. As soon as I got out, the fresh smell of the countryside hit me. The sun was out here, and it wasn't snowing. I was a little confused by that, but I didn't say anything. Percy motioned us on, until we reached a sign that said something in a foreign language.

At first I couldn't read it, but then I translated it. "Camp Half-Blood."

Percy smiled, walking past the sign. "You just read Greek, another sign that you're a half-blood, or demigod." I followed Percy in, carefully.

"This is Camp Half-Blood, like on your shirt?" Jane asked behind me, still refusing to some in.

"Welcome to Camp Half-Blood," Percy beckoned her in, half smiling, "Home of the Greeks! And yes, like on my shirt."

So? How was it? Yeah, I did reference the movie. Who caught it? Probably all of you. I promise the only thing I'll reference from the movie is the entrance, but in this it will still be by Thalia's pine tree. Well, thanks for reading, I hope you like it! :D Oh, and another thing, does Percy seem to OOC compared to the books? I thought he did somewhat, if you agree please review and tell me what I can do better! -TheSeaGirl1234
