Stella's POV

I stood off to the side listening to Renee telling Bella that we didn't need to do this, while being told the outright lie that Bella wanted to move in with Charlie. I had to hold back a groan at my over-dramatic adoptive sister with self-tortuous tenancies. She hated the small town in Washington that Charlie lived, while I freaking loved Forks. While we would both miss the sun, me for actual good reasons, her just because she hated anyplace wet, I was actually excited to go live with my adoptive dad.

After Renee -my adoptive mom- separated from Miss Pity-Party, I bounced up to her and gave her a hug. "Bye Renee, I'll tell Charlie you said hi." I told her before pulling away and dragging Little Miss Mopey onto the plane that would take us to our dad. Once on the plane, Bella slumped into her seat and started to mope, causing me to roll my eyes.

Honestly, I loved Charlie and Renee, and I will forever be grateful that they adopted me after I was just dumped on their doorstep at three days old instead of putting me into foster care, but I couldn't stand Bella most days. I leaned back in my seat and started to play with my new necklace, a clay bead on a thin strip of leather. It was a crude necklace, but it meant the world to me.

I smiled at the little black bead with a green trident and an odd symbol on it. I had gotten it at the end of summer for completing my first summer at camp. I had met a friend named Grover last school year and h had told me about a Greek Mythology summer camp in Long Island, New York that I had gone to before he transferred out of the school.

That camp had turned out to be a summer camp for Greek demigods. Upon the camp director, Mr. D. -who turned out to be the Greek god of wine, Dionysus- seeing me, he had gasped and left only to return a few minutes later with 13 other gods and goddesses who had claimed me as the Lost Daughter of Olympus. My parents had told me about how I came to be, that I had been created from an experiment of Athena's that was supposed to study what would happened with combined ichor, and that I had appeared in a flash of light as soon as their ichor had mixed.

I had responded with my snarky side saying that evidently, that's what happens with mixed ichor. Luckily, most of my parents had an awesome sense of humor, though Hermes and Apollo had laughed the hardest. A kid who had arrived at camp a few days before me, had been claimed a few days later during Capture the Flag by Poseidon.

Percy had then gotten a quest to retrieve Zeus' stolen master bolt from 'the god who has turned' in the west -enter everyone blaming Hades- and had taken me and Grover with. Originally, one of my many siblings, a daughter of Athena had wanted to go, but Percy pointed out that if I, Hades' long lost daughter was with, he might be more agreeable. Annabeth couldn't fault that logic and had begrudgingly stayed behind, while we went questing.

A bunch of monsters and problems later, and we were in Denver where we ran into Hercules, who I was able to recognize from very early memories as the one who had kidnapped me. I had pulled out a digital recorder and had tricked him into confessing to my kidnapping after his bogus 'side-quest'. Six more days, one big fight, and an anxious Percy on a plane later; and the master bolt was back in Zeus' care, Hercules had 14 livid deities after his ass, and I had started calling my parents by momma or daddy being a daddy's girl.

Before I left at the end of summer though, Luke, a son of daddy Hermes, had tried to kill Percy, confessed to being the lightning thief and working for Kronos. After ensuring Percy was awake in the infirmary, daddy Hephaestus had stopped by to give me a different leather cord for the necklace that could hide my scent from all monsters so I could have relative normalcy.

I still hadn't told Renee or Charlie the truth about the camp or myself, but I wold definitely not be telling Bella. Sister or not, I didn't trust the whiney little brat with a secret candy stash, much less a secret like mine.

I was just sad that my immortality couldn't be restored until my 18th birthday. I would be immortal, and a goddess again, and I could finally ditch the brat that I unfortunately share a house with. I sighed as I came out of my thoughts with the feeling of takeoff. I had no worries of flying, daddy Zeus wouldn't let the plane go down even if both engines failed and the plane was on fire, not while I was on board.

I waited a few more minutes to reach cruising altitude and pulled out my iPod that ran on magic that daddy Apollo gave me. It was gold in color and had all of my favorite songs on there, so I was absolutely thrilled. He had also given me gold headphones much like his own. I smiled as I put the headphones on, ignoring Bella's jealous look, and pressed play on my playlist.

It wasn't my fault that she had been too stupid not to grab something to entertain her for a four freaking hour long flight. She should have grabbed one of her boring ass classics that she read religiously. Honestly, I had nothing against the classics every now and then, but they were the only thing she read!

I preferred my modern young adult books, and my ghost stories. I also had a few books on Greek Mythology that I enjoyed laughing at. I'd read one of the books after coming back from camp and just couldn't stop laughing at all the things that had been wrong in the book. Bella thought I was stupid for liking modern books, and said that I had no taste. I just ignored her whenever she said that, not that it's anything new, as I ignore her all the time.

I find it highly amusing that she thinks I look up to her though, when she couldn't be more wrong. Soon enough, the flight attendant came by with the drink cart, and Bella got a water while I got a Dr. Pepper. I took my headphones off for a second to thank her before putting my drink on my tray. "You should have gotten a water." Bella told me, prompting the eye roll I gave. "No thanks, I prefer flavor, and I like Dr. Pepper for that." I told her before putting my headphones back on and cracking open my soda.

Catching Bella looking at me out of the corner of my eye, I lifted the can and took a slow sip just to annoy her. She shook her head at me as if she was disappointed in me. I snorted internally at the action. She acted like she thought she was my mother while I'm the rebellious teenager who's out of control just because I like things she can't stand. I wondered idly if I did this so often because it's something my parents might do, then inwardly smirked. Well, it was definitely something daddies Apollo and Hermes would do, maybe daddies Ares and Poseidon.

Instead of pondering further on it, I just turned up my music and settled in for the remaining time. I must have completely tuned out the world, because the next thing I knew, a flight attendant was tapping my shoulder. "Miss, I'm afraid you'll have to turn off your iPod, we're about to land." She said politely. I nodded and removed my headphones and turned off my wonderful music.

I turned to look out the window and saw Bella glaring out at the clouds and rain. I saw a strike of lightning out in the distance and just knew that it was daddy Zeus' way of saying hi to me. I smiled out in the direction I saw the strike as we went in to land. I was glad that I didn't have to deal with my ears popping on planes anymore now that my powers that Hercules had bound somehow were released. I could fly on my own if I wanted to, but that would cause a lot of questions that I so didn't want to answer.

After we landed and left the plane, I dragged Bella over to the closest Starbucks in the airport, which was coincidently on the way to our gate, to stop for some hot chocolate. I would have gotten coffee, but I had a bad experience when I tried it once when I was eight. As I walked up to the counter to order, I had to hold back my laugh at seeing daddy Apollo behind the counter. "What can I get for ya sweetheart?" He asked, somehow managing to keep a straight face. "Venti hot chocolate." I managed to choke out through my restrained laughter.

He smirked as he put the order in, clearly seeing that I was having issues not laughing. "How much?" Bella asked, popping the funny bubble. Daddy Apollo looked up at the question and saw my slightly irritated expression. "No charge, it's on me. My cousin Will goes to camp with her, I saw a picture of the two of them together and recognized her." He said, and I had to hold back a snort at the idea of him calling Will Solstice his cousin since Will as his son.

Bella tried and failed to hide the tiny scowl and nodded while I went over to wait for the drink. Seeing that he was making it, I started conversation. "So did Will teach you Greek? We learn it at camp and I know he said that he taught some of his family how to speak it." I said, having to hold back my laugh at asking a Greek God if he spoke the language.

I saw him restrain a smirk of amusement in response. "He did, I taught myself as well, so I'm quite fluent in it. Where are you in speaking Greek?" He asked, causing me to actually laugh. "I learn languages quick, it would seem. I'm fluent as well." I told him for the benefit of Bella being behind me. We both knew that I was fluent, it was my natural language after all. "So who's Molly Mopey over there?" He asked, faking an air of challenge to make it look like he was testing me.

"Adoptive sister. At least I get freedom from the self-righteous brat during the summer now." I responded, leaning forward to give the look of teasing. "There's that at least. Hey, we all had our fun with Hercules, but what should we do with him now?" He asked, pouring my hot chocolate into a cup. "Give him to Nemesis as a new toy." I said, making sure only he could hear the spiteful edge in my voice, before accepting the cup from him. "Thanks for the drink and the practice. Tell Will I said hi." I told him before leaving with Bella and heading over to the gate.

She stared at me as I sat down to wait for boarding. "Stella Charlotte Swann, what was that?! Don't you know better than to talk to strangers?" Miss High and Mighty demanded. "I didn't realize I was a toddler to be scolded, Isabella Marie. I was just practicing my Greek with a friend's cousin." I told her, rolling my eyes. I ignored her irritated look and thought about why he would be here, but couldn't come up with a good answer as to why one of my parents would be here just to make me hot chocolate.

It must have been a whim since they couldn't do this while I was growing up. I took a tentative sip of the hot liquid and nearly smirked. This was German chocolate hot chocolate. I knew this because momma Hestia had made it for me one night when I couldn't sleep. She must have told my other parents how much I loved it. I looked up when I heard the call to board, flicking my auburn hair out of my face.

Apparently, my hair and eyes had been like they are now when I was kidnapped, and having my powers bound for so long, this became my natural look. However, I loved my auburn hair with blonde and black streaks, and silvery blue eyes with emerald, purple, and red flecks.
