The Quest

They all arrived at the climbing wall the next day. Everyone was pumped to try and capture the flag at the top. Chiron and Mr.D told everyone to ready up. Everyone, including Alaska, Austin, and Hope, took their mark. With a shot in the air of an arrow, the race began. Alaska and Austin sprinted to the climbing wall, while Hope took one last second to analyze the wall. She then sprinted off at her quickest speed. Many people were falling off, being hit by the wood columns that come flying out of the tower, as well as the fire that shoots out of the tower. The newest campers, Alaska, Austin, and Hope, somehow had the best time, and hand-eye coordination. They all reached the top at the same time. "We can't all win, y'know." Alaska said with a sly grin. "No sir, we cannot." Austin said. Hope looked both ways at both of the two and said "Yes, we can." She took both of their hands, put them on the flag, and put her own hand on the flag. They all held it up and the crowd went wild. Chiron's jaw dropped at the sight of this. All three climbed down and Chiron met them at the bottom. "Nobody ever wins on their first try! Especially not newcomers! And three people have never won at once! You guys have broken a couple of records today." Chiron took notes and then received an Iris message. "Hold on, I have to take this." He walked away and Grover appeared on the screen. "What do you think they are talking about?" Austin said, questioning the secrecy. "I don't know." Hope said with a confused look on her face. Alaska gasped and had an excited face and said "What if they are going to send us on some kind of quest like my parents used to go on? They told me about their quests when I iris messaged them this morning." "What? We're newcomers. Chiron would never send us on a quest." Hope said. "Betcha 5 golden drachma, Hope." "Deal." Hope and Alaska shook hands and waited for Chiron to come back. "Kids I have a quest for you three to go on. You-" "Money." Alaska said sticking out her hand. Austin laughed, and Hope sighed and reached into her pocket, took out 5 golden drachma, and put it in Alaska's hand. "Ah-hem. As I was saying, I am sending you kids on a mission to New York to recruit some new demi-gods. Grover needs some help, because he can only look after one at a time, and there are two. Do you accept the quest?" Chiron said. "Yes!" All three kids shouted at the same time.

"Ok, you will be going in the Camp Half-Blood van to New York."
