I am sorry that it has been a wile scene I updated. I was going to last night but my mom wouldn't hand over the internet. Also my birthday is tomorrow and my party is today. I was having fun exploring fan fiction and how to work this website that I forgot to plan a party so I had to do all the planning on Sunday last week. I had extra typing time yesterday because my school got out early. The office was filed with sick kids and it was spreading super quickly. I have been sick for weeks but not to my stomach. I just have been coughing and having troubles with breathing and sleeping. I got board of checking for mistakes so now I just look for spelling mistakes. Hope you enjoy chapter 3.

I wok to someone rapidly shaking my shoulders. Opening my eyes, I saw another boy whose face I'd have to mach a name to. Rolling off the opposite side of the bed, I groaned and announced that I was up as I stood.

"Chiron wanted me to give you your schedule for your classes, Joyce. You have to take classes for a year after you arrive at camp," the boy told me, "by the way I'm Chris Rodriguez, son of Hermes." Chris handed me the small piece of paper.

Today is going to be a long day. At least I would have a shorter day tomorrow, right? I was only looking forward to sward fighting and Archery. Foot racing seemed fine because the cheer team and I ran around the track four times at every practice after we stretch. You know, now tomorrow looks like it will be a long day. Nothing on the schedule for tomorrow looks interesting.

Chris handed me a pair of jean shorts that went just above my knees and a neon orange T-shirt that said camp half-blood on it like every one else's shirts that I have seen in this camp. "Piper asked me to give these to you," he told me. "There are thirty more minutes left of breakfast. You better change quickly. I assume Piper showed you where the bathrooms are?"

"Yah, she did," I said, "See you later, Chris. Thank you." I waved good bye and walked out of the cabin to the bathrooms.

When I got there, I changed out of my uniform but instantly I knew that I would never get rid of it. Piper and I must ware the same size because her jeans and T-shirt fit perfectly.

For breakfast, I ate two eggs with a glass of milk. The Hermes cabin all had different kinds of cereals so they teased me about the eggs. I just ignored them.

Annabeth and Piper came with me to sword fighting. They said they didn't want me with the Ares cabin on my own.

Piper wouldn't let any Ares kids fight with me until I knew how to, so she tried to teach me. Key word: tried. She was sooo confusing and I was getting frustrated. Annabeth was just laughing at Piper's way of showing me. After fifteen minutes Piper started to confuse herself.

"Annabeth, I don't fight with a sword, help me," Piper begged.

Annabeth smiled at Piper and said, "No, you are the one who wanted to teach Joyce and I fight with a dagger too. You should have let Eric teach her, he's the nicest child of Ares even thou he isn't as good as Percy."

"Fine," Piper said, "I'll go get Percy." She ran out the arena before Annabeth could stand and get her back.

Annabeth smiled and said, "Well, I guess I will get some of the basics in before Percy gets here." She gave me great tips for fighting Percy like "watch his eyes not his sword" and "don't let him distract you."

When Piper got back with Percy, he thought me how to fight, which was way easier than how Piper tried to explain it. With Percy teaching me I was fighting five minutes after he started. I had a blast! Sword fighting was super fun, but too soon it ended.

After lunch I had archery. Annabeth and Piper wanted to hang out and get to know me better so they followed my schedule with me. Annabeth and I at least hit the target while Piper missed every time. I got really good when Chiron told me that it was time for canoeing with Percy.

We got to Cano Lake and I was freaking out. Annabeth and Piper got in a canoe and I wasn't going.

"Come on, Joyce. It's just water," Percy said.

"I can't swim! What if I fall out?" I told him.

Percy sighed, "Will you go if I get in the same canoe?" He asked.

I considered this. He was the son of Poseidon. I looked at him and he looked sad. I remembered yesterday when he voted that he wanted me to be a daughter of Poseidon. He wanted a sibling. I felt bad but I was scared.

When I was eight, my mom paid a swimming coach to teach me how to swim. I was fine with that until I got in the water. I felt like the water didn't want me there and I was scared. One day at swimming lessons the water tugged me in and I couldn't breathe. The coach saw me under and got me out of the pool. He told me to sit out for a wile. Later that day my mom told me the coach said that it seemed like the water was trying to pull me out of his grip before he got me out.

My eyes were watery but I said, "Okay, Percy, I'll go in if you go with me."

Annabeth didn't look jealous that Percy was going with me, but she did look worried about me.

"Percy," I said tears sprouting from my eyes, "I'm scared"

By now Percy looked like he understood that I am not his sister but he whispered to me like I was. "Don't worry." He looked back at Annabeth and Piper behind us and was talking about going back when we crashed into a rock. The force was powerful and knocked me in.

Percy P.O.V.

The canoe tipped over and Joyce and I fell into the water. I reached surface and Joyce wasn't there.

"She can't swim!" Annabeth reminded me.

I dived back in and couldn't find her. I could sense her; she was near. I kept looking but I couldn't find her anywhere. When I finally found her she was passed out by a bunch of seaweed. It was obvious she couldn't breathe under water. I don't know how long we were down there so I got her up as fast as I could. Annabeth and Piper were freaking out and were at shore already. I set Joyce on the sand. Apparently we were down long enough for them to get Jason and Leo, who were most likely both in the Zeus cabin.

Joyce wasn't breathing and I started to panic. Then I remembered that I knew CPR. Oh no. Annabeth was right there but I knew she wouldn't care. She was the daughter of Athena; she knows when it is time to be a jealous girlfriend and when not to be. Also this was her new close friend.

I had them all back up and sent Leo to get Will and the other Apollo kids.

I finely got Joyce to breathe when the Apollo campers got there. They took her to the infirmary and we followed but Will made us wait at the entrance.

"Annabeth, lets go tell the nymphs and Demeter campers that Joyce might not make it to her class," I said. Annabeth and I told the nymphs that Joyce won't make it and told the Demeter cabin that she might not make it to their class then went back to the infirmary.

When we got there we heard crying and Joyce muttering, "Percy, I'm scared," over and over again. I remember her whispering that before we tipped into the water.

"Is that what I sound like in Oracle mode?" A voice from behind me said. We all turned and saw Rachel Dare.

"Rachel!" Annabeth and Piper shouted and they gave her a bear hug.

"Seriously, guys what is going on?" Rachel asked.

As I told Rachel the story she started to look appalled. "I hope she gets Better," Rachel exclaimed.

While this was going on Joyce stopped muttering but she was still crying. It wasn't like sobbing but more like she was trying not to cry but it came out just a little.

The crying stopped but there was some sniffling. Will came out and told us she was awake and that we could go in.

Joyce was wiping her tears when we walked in. Rachel came in with us because she wanted to make sure Joyce was okay. When she saw us she gave us a weak smile and then seamed to notice Rachel.

Rachel saw that Joyce was looking at her curiously and said, "Hi I'm Rachel Dare. I am the oracle of Delphi. I already know your name, Joyce. Percy and Annabeth told me.

"Hello, Rachel," Joyce said.

Will came up to us and said, "she should be fine, but don't let her go back in the lake. If she wants she can still do gardening with the Demeter cabin but you should have her wait till tomorrow for her to foot race with the nymphs. Other than that she is all good. You can take her to get a bit more sleep, to the Demeter cabin or just go hang out."

Leo helped Joyce up and we all went to garden with Katy Gardner and her siblings.
