I thought about what Camp Half Blood would be like. Would it look somewhat like the compound? We're there many other people there? Will I be recognized for who I am? Will I be shunned?
I was knocked out of my thoughts by my sister, "Hey fuzzball, want to take a break?" Me and my sister were going to the camp together, dad was going to hang out at his house on Olympus. We were currently driving in a taxi through New York city, and traffic was really bad. So, we decided to walk. We had barely made it out of the city when I felt the change start to come over me.
"Sure, and hey, uh, sis?"
"Yeah?"
"Its happening." Her eyes widened comically before she stopped walking.
"Oh shoot."
"Yep."
"Let's head over to the trees over there so no one else sees it happen. We're still a good 45 minute walk from camp." My sister worried.
I started to feel nauseous. "Good idea."
We had barely made it into the treeline when I started to change. I fell down on all fours, pain wracking my body. I started to grow fur, my hands and feet melded into one large nail, as in finger. My nose and mouth elongated forming a muzzle I grew three time in size as a felt a sharp pain in my shoulder blades. My sister's eyes followed my growth with wonder, this was the first time she had seen it up close. Soon, a dark brown Pegasus stood in front of my sister. I hung my head. How could this happen! So close to Camp and I become a horse, perfect. It only happens once a year and lasts about a month. Why!
"So what do we do?"
I looked at my sister.
"You can't talk?"
I nodded.
"I guess, I can try to explain to Chiron what happened and maybe he can help!"
I nodded.
She got a sly look. "But only if you let me ride on your back."
I rolled my eyes. fine I thought.
She grinned.
This is going to be a long trip.
Well, while I'm trotting over to Camp Half Blood, I should probably explain why I'm a horse. So, my mom was a horse. She fell in love with my dad when he was in equine form, but my mother was killed by a hellhound when I was just a foal. Yes, I was a foal. I was born a horse. Deal with it. Anyway, my dad took me in and turned me into a human, but, it would only last for a year and then I would turn back for a few weeks, if he renewed the spell on me. The staff would have a less potent affect, but I could turn sooner than a year if he did not renew it himself. How am I going to get through camp? I have no idea.
As we arrived at camp borders, my sister Aubrush dismounted me, that sounds weird, and lead me past the boundaries, keeping the pretense I was a normal pegasi. As we walked to the Big House that my father told us to go to, I saw the cabins. I could see the twelve cabins in a U in the middle of the Camp. And then we reached the Big House. Aubrush went inside while I waited. A couple satyrs ran by chasing some nymphs. All of a sudden a satyr appeared out of nowhere.
"Hmmm, you must be lost. We better get you back to the stables."
Stables! No way am I going in there! The satyr tried all that he could to get me to move but I stayed as solid as a rock. Luckily Aubrush and Chiron came out at that moment.
"What are you doing?" Chiron asked the satyr.
"Putting this stubborn pegesi back in the stables."
"Sorry to burst your bubble, but that pegasus is going to stay in the woods with me." My dear sister said.
The satyr literally fell over backwards. "What?"
"You heard me."
"Uh, what can I do to help?"
"Staying out of the way would be nice."
"Um...ok?"
My sister brushed past him. I followed her into the woods, where we found a nice clearing to set up a small camp in. While my sister talked to the nymphs of the clearing, I looked around and noticed how nice it was. I just had to worry about the campers.
She laughed at my look. "Don't worry, you'll be fine."
Little did she know how wrong she was.
Reviews are always appreciated, if I get nine or ten reviews I will post a two thousand word chapter. Thank you.
