As I finally go to the fire (I had gotten stuck a lot) I heard singing. I sat at the bottom, away from everyone else because most would rather sit at the top. I just sat there not paying attention until I heard someone sit next to me. I looked up at the one and only nico di Angelo.
"Um…. Hi?" I said awkwardly. This guy was strange. Something about him seemed to scare almost all the other campers, but I don't know what. He's not really scary, just a bit socially awkward,
All I got in response to my greeting was a grunt. I just shook my head and looked forward again.
"Hey new girl!" I heard someone yell from the top. I had only been awake fir a few hours and yet I knew that voice already. It was drew, the camp mean girl. "Why don't you come sit up here? Oh wait that's right you can't." I just ignored her. "Maybe someone would help you up here if you weren't so anti-social." I heard her yell.
The whole cameo was silent watching us. I turned around, grinning, just in time to see Conner and Travis stand. I may have just met them, but they could be considered my best friends. I just laughed. "Sorry to tell ya hon." I said, not bothering to hide my Texas accent. "But I aint anti-social. Society is just anti me. So turn your pretty little self around and sit down before I show ya why no one messes with me."
"Oh yeah right!" she yelled. "What are you going to do you can't even walk!?"
"Does it matter?" I ask. "You learn a lot growing up in Houston. Like how to live off the streets, how to pick your fights wisely, and most importantly how to beat the living shit out of anyone who decides to mess with you." I glare at her. "If you want proof just come down here and I'll give you some."
Drew was speechless along with almost everyone else. No one dared talk to draw like that, but surprisingly some of them just laughed. The Stoll brothers came down and slapped me on the back grinning from ear to ear. Clarisse la rue (A/N: someone please tell me if I spelt that wrong) gave me a thumbs up and went back to talking to her boyfriend.
Suddenly everything went quiet. Everyone was staring at me and some pointing. Chiron who was walking over stopped and gaped, and even Mr. D didn't say anything.
"What?" I asked looking above me where one of the kids pointed. Floating above me was a trident. "Um… this is freaking me out will someone please explain?" I look around. "Something tells me this isn't normal."
Just then Chiron walks forward. He leads me to the middle of the ring they have and says in a very loud voice. "Half-bloods, to those who haven't met her, this is pearl Cornelia daughter of Poseidon." I blinked.
"no." I said drawing attention. "No that can't be right. I have nothing in common with Poseidon. I have nothing in common with Percy I can't be the daughter of Poseidon."
"He has claimed you showing us all you are." Chiron said gently so as not to overwhelm me.
"Uh huh…" I say. I had a major headache. My vision was blurring, and the world started to spin. Someone asking if I was ok was the last thing I heard before I blacked out.
