I stood silently for a moment and saw the lion was no where in site. I was thinking that it must have left due to the attack by Percy. Eventually I spoke up and said "I find that hard to believe even with the Nemean Lion destroying my school." Percy then said to him "It's true and we will be taking you to camp for training today though we had not expected a monster to attack you so early in the school year. Especially not the Nemean Lion." I then spoke up and said "What about my mom what will she think of this?" Percy said to me "We have already spoken to her and she knew this time would come. She is to heartbroken about your leaving to say goodbye,but don't worry you will be able to visit her at the end of the summer when camp lets out." I said to him "Well that sounds like my mom. So when do we go and how long til we get their." Percy said to me "Well the camp is in New York and were in Chicago so maybe a couple of days. So lets go to the bus station."
We walked to the bus station and Percy paid for three tickets for me,John, and himself." I asked "So Percy how do you know John." He told me "John is a Camper but no longer goes on mission as on his last quest he injured his legs to severely to use them properly again. That's why he started to search for half-bloods such as your self." I stayed quiet after that and when the bus finally arrived we boarded and I fell asleep in my seat. Luckily the bus was a one shot ride to New York."
Well I was asleep I had a strange dream. In this dream their were 12 people sitting in chairs in a U shape. The chair in the center was empty however. They seemed to be discussing what happened to the guy in the middle,but I couldn't make out his name. One person in the middle yelled out "We need some of the Campers to go on a quest to rescue him." Someone of the far right then said "I agree but for something like this Percy is the most suitable along with the others." Someone next to the empty chair said "Well Percy will be back at camp in a couple of days but we should let him rest with his friends this week since we don't know how this quest will go." They all muttered in agreement and then everything went black.
Percy was waking me and he said to me "Hey were here." We went off the bus and they went up to what looked like a normal summer camp with a large sign that said welcome to Camp Half-Blood. The camp was at the top of a hill and it had a tree at the top of it. When we got to the top of the hill I saw what looked like a dragon wrapped around the tree with a fleece hanging on the branches. The dragon hissed at me as I passed the tree but I said to it "Calm down little guy." The dragon seemed to not want to attack me but did what I said and calmed down. Percy said to me "Don't worry that's just Peleus he won't hurt you but it's best to stay away from the tree." As we walked into camp a blond haired girl ran up to Percy and gave hi a big hug. She looked really happy to see. That when she noticed me. She to me "Hi I'm Annabeth Chase you must be the new camper. And you are?" I replied "I'm Maneki Neko." She seemed to be analyzing me a bit and then said to me "Well It's best you go see Chiron. He's the camp Leader." Percy said "Chrion is probable at the Big house. I'll show you the way."
As we went I saw a cute blond haired girl fighting against a guy with an axe. I wondered if she was a few minutes of walking we arrived at what seemed like an ordinary cabin. We walked inside and there was a Half-man Half-horse guy playing chess against a guy in a Hawaiian shirt. Percy motioned me towards the horse guy and left. I walked up to him and said "Uh Hello Chiron I'm the new camper Maneki Neko." He stopped his match and said to me "Ah Maneki we've been expecting you,but not so soon. Now do you know who your father is so we can determine which cabin to put you in?" I replied "No I don't know but maybe my mom does." "Alas we have already spoken with her and she does not know who he really was." Chiron said. He continued by saying "For the mean time you will be put in the Hermes cabin until you are claimed by your father." He told where the cabin was and I went off to it. I wonder how the Hermes kids will welcome me. I then set off to the cabin.
Authors Note: I do not own the PJO series. Also some Notes. The cute blond will he his love interest in the story. His father you will learn about later and it will explain why something like the Nemean Lion would attack him. And this is set after the last Olympian but the Lost hero did not happen.
