Haven ran into the school and bolted for Mr. Glendale's room. Hopefully he would be there. Otherwise Haven would have to bother the janitors. Haven reached the Mr. Glendale's room and found it unlocked. She slipped inside, silently closing the door behind her.

"Hello! Anyone here?" Haven called into the apparently empty room. After a few moments, Haven darted to her bag and picked it up. She was about to leave the room when she heard a noise through the doors that connects this room to the English office.

"It's Haven. I know it is," a familiar voice exclaimed. Haven sneaked up to the door to listen. She pressed her eye to the crack between the doors and saw Yamato, Wren, and Mr. Glendale talking.

"How can you be so s-sure? You've only met her today," Yamato stuttered.

"Either way, we know there is a demigod here. We should contact camp and get an extraction squad here. Wren, here's a drachma. Go to the bathroom and use the sink to send an Iris message to camp" Mr. Glendale said.

"Do you t-think it's Haven?" Yamato asked. A door opened somewhere in the building.

"I know it's Haven. To tell you the truth, I wasn't going to tell Haven unless something came up. I found her several years before you did. But now there's a monster around and it's interested in her. I can't see any other option now," Mr. Glendale said.

"W-who do you t-think the monster is?" Yamato asked.

"It's only been around for a few weeks, so I really don't know. If it had been interested in the little prince, I would have let things go, but since it's not, she needs to leave," Mr. Glendale said. Haven heard footsteps come closer to the door.

"Dad! I sent the message! They said they would be here later tonight. The squad will consist of Hailey and Connor," Wren ran into the other room.

"T-that's good. Go watch for t-them. Did you give t-them the right address? We don't want another g-group to s-stop in North Carolina instead if North Dakota again," Yamato stuttered.

"Yes! I gave them the right state. You can't blame me for last time! I wasn't even twenty at the time," Wren whined. Wren was over twenty? That kid had difficulty looking thirteen, much less twenty. The footsteps started towards the door again. Haven turned to head for the door, but she found someone standing in her way.

"You know, it took an irksome amount of time to find you, but now I have. Hanging around James really helped my cause. I suppose I should thank you. That and your stupidity. I told you that staying around him would be detrimental for your health," Sara whispered, her head taking up almost all of Haven's eyeline.

"What do you want?" Haven squeaked.

"I don't usually eat girls, but I've heard half-blood tastes especially good, so I'll make an exception," Sara smiled.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," Haven kicked Sara in the shin. A hollow metallic sound filled the room as Haven's face turned into a grimace. Sara's expression did not even waver. Terror started filling Haven's heart as she realized Sara was not human. Sara's image flickered for a second, showing her true form. Haven unsuccessfully muffled a scream as the doors behind her opened and she went tumbling backwards.

~CHB~

Suddenly, a pair of arms grabbed Haven and pulled her into the other room, placing her into a chair. Yamato slammed the doors in front of Sara and locked them. Sara howled on the other side with rage, flinging herself against the doors. Yamato put a bronze blade between the doors and the room next door went silent. Yamato slipped the blade back through the crack and unlocked the door.

"What are you doing? She was trying to kill me! Isn't she still over there?" Haven exclaimed.

"See t-the dust? T-that's all t-that's left of her," Yamato said as he opened the doors, revealing a pile of dust.

"Who are you guys? What was she? What did she mean when she said I was a demigod? Wat have you known for years?" Haven asked bewildered. Mr. Glendale came in front of Haven and put his hands on her shoulders.

"Haven, go home and pack. You need to go to a camp tonight. Everything will be explained there," he said.

"What about my mum!"

"Oh, she already knows. She is my wife after all," Mr. Glendale smiled. He created a rainbow using a prism on his desk. Then he threw a golden coin into the light.

"Iris, O Goddess of the Rainbow, accept my offering. Show me Oralee Glendale," Mr. Glendale said. Suddenly, an image of Haven's mom cooking dinner appeared in the air.

"Wood, what have I told you about Iris messaging me?" Oralee asked jokingly as a can of soup flew out of a cupboard and into her translucent hand.

"Honey, what have I told you about breezing through the house?" Mr. Glendale smiled back.

"Oh don't worry! Amy and Vinny are in the living room and Haven's gone back to school," Oralee laughed. It sounded like wind chimes.

"I know. An empousa tried to get her. She's okay now. She's here with Wren, Yamato and I," Mr. Glendale smiled.

"Mum! Why do you look like... like a ghost?" Haven stammered. Haven had always known she was adopted, but she hadn't thought that her family wasn't even human!

"I'm an aura dear, not a ghost. Well, I guess you need to get to Camp Half-Blood. Come home and pack okay," Oralee said before slashing her hand through the image, leaving Haven as stunned and shocked as ever.

"Wait! I don't understand! What just happened!" Haven shook her head in confusion.

"Yamato, drive her home. Answer any questions she has and stay at the house until the extraction squad arrives. I'll meet you there," Mr. Glendale said and Yamato led her away.
