I woke up and freaked out. I had a black floating skull above my head. Who doesn't freak out at that? I had a panic attack with about 4 other people in the room. Then Percy slapped me. I slapped him back.
"Why did you slap me!" I practically screamed.
"You had a panic attack." he replied. Did he not get it?
"That doesn't mean you can slap me!" I yelled.
Finally, I realized other people were in the room. Embarrassing, I know. There was that goth-ish boy looking a little sleepy. There was the girl who looked like she was going to throw up. Annabeth was staring at me oddly and Percy was next to me. The boy looked groggy and tired and all around annoyed.
"Nice to meet you." I said awkwardly. I'm such a dork.
"Maria, this is Nico and..." Percy trailed off. Nico was kinda cute. The girl finally spoke.
"I'm Sadie." she stated. Ok, Sadie and Nico. She looked as freaked out as me. She started to stare at me oddly "Can I talk to you a sec.?" She questioned. Crud. Random person wants to talk to me.
"Sure?" it came out more of a question than an answer. She still took it as a yes. We went behind the cabin and talked.
"Why are you here?" she asked.
"I'm a demigod." I responded.
"What's that?" still confused. Questioning much.
"A demigod is a child of a god or goddess on one side of the family." I explained "Ok, anyway, you're a magician." She told me. More gods, Great. Didn't know what that meant, but I knew there were more gods. Does that mean I'm all god? I pushed that thought aside.
"What's a magician?" this time I asked.
"It means you're from the blood of pharaohs." she explained. Pharaohs are egyptian. Okay, greek and egyptian. That also might mean that I'm not all god. She handed me a list and at the top of it in hieroglyphics was 'Blood of the Pharaohs'. Immediately, I spotted my last name wrapped in a rope, Blade. Well, it wasn't spelled that way, it had BLD but I knew it was Blade. I realized that I had one messed up family. A god who was my father, a brother which I never knew, and a mother who died. I also could read different names, Kane, Blade, and a few others.
"I found Kane." I stated. "that's your last name."
"How can you read my last name?" she said bewildered. Apparently, that didn't happen often.
