Hi sorry if its kinda choppy, I'm trying.

The following day I woke up in the infirmary. I tried to get out of bed but my thigh was hurting me too much and a familiar voice startled me, "Hey Skylar, how you feeling?" I turned my head to find Percy with a look of relief and concern in his sea green eyes

"Ok, but my upper leg hurts like, A LOT." I replied. He handed me a square of ambrosia and when I ate it the rest of the healing gash cleared up. "Thanks. Can I ask you some thing?"

"Sure,"

"Can I visit my mom? I haven't talked to her since I came here,"

"You can't visit her," I slumped down into the bed, "but you can talk to her and see her." After he said that I thought he was just crazy, "Come with me," he said and I followed him into our cabin feeling like Jake never stabbed me in my leg.

He took me over to the little water spring in the back of the room next to the window and sat on the floor facing it, motioning me to sit next to him. He pulled out one of the many gold coins sitting at the bottom of it and held it up in front of me

"Ok, this is how it works you see that rainbow?" he asked me pointing to the multicolored light

"Yeah,"

"Throw this drachma in and say this, 'Oh Iris, goddess of the rainbow, accept my offering', and then say who you want to see,"

"Um ok," I said and Percy handed me the drachma. I threw the coin in and it was magically dissolved by the colors

"Oh Iris, goddess of the rainbow, accept my offering. Lisa Fox, Rhode Island," I repeated and then a fuzzy picture of my mom's back turned to the hologram turned crystal clear and I smiled in accomplishment "Mom," I called her and she turned in confusion. She blinked and then smiled

"Skylar, where are you?"

"I'm at camp,"

"Oh, great! Who's there with you?"

"Oh this is Percy Jackson, my half brother,"

"Wait-what?"

"Long story short, my father had other kids,"

"Oh, well nice to meet you Percy."

"You too Ms. Fox," then I heard Annabeth's voice calling Percy from outside, "Gotta go," Percy smiled at my mother one last time and sprinted out the door

"So Skylar, how's camp been?"

"Both good and bad. I got stabbed in the leg yesterday," a look of concern replaced happiness

"What? Are you ok?"

"I'm fine; it was just a game,"

"Well be more careful next time,"

"yes mom. Hey mom I was thinking, they have a school here and I wanted to know if I could stay here. Year round,"

"You've only been there for three days,"

"yes but… I have family, friends, kids just like me here and well, I like it here. I even have a pet,"

"A pet?"

"Yes, it fly's,"

"I can get you a bird at home-"

"Its not a bird, it's a Pegasus,"

"Oh… hmm I can't compete with that."

"Let me stay. I can always come for the holidays,"

"Ok, just be careful. I love you,"

"I love you too mom. Bye," I finished and swished my hand trough the hologram.

Three weeks later, they brought the thirteen and fourteen year olds to the Greek Demigods Academy (GDA) to see if they want to go back to mortal school or stay there. In one week they would begin the school term and I couldn't wait. The Aphrodite cabin convinced Chiron to let the camp go out into the real world to pick clothes and accessories for school that next day and I was pretty excited. Hot Topic here we come! Is the first thought that came into my head on hearing that and I couldn't wait.

The school was a huge grey three story Greek building with the statues of the gods with cabins in our camp lining the front. On the first floor was elementary classes, top floor senior and middle was in the middle of it all or something like that. I was in the middle.

We all ran to are age floors and looked around. Math, art, Greek, Greek history, science, P.E., French and Language are the subjects we get. There are also clubs and extra circular's you can join too.

Around lunch time we left and headed to the dining pavilion. After lunch we carried on to with the rest of our day and it was Pegasus training with the Aphrodite cabin. Oh great I thought another session of Rebecca, Crystal and Miranda insulting my hair, style and taste in music.

As I tied my hair to start riding, I noticed Rebecca scanning me with a look on disgust on her face. I mounted my horse and flew into the sky in attempt to get as far away as possible from the girl that tried to name my horse princess. Stormy's curly tail and mane was similar to the pure white Pegasus Rebecca owns. She called that one Princess and I was much happier that way.

I practiced turning smoothly and shooting upwards away from storm clouds. As I landed perfectly on the grass I smirked in accomplishment but it faded when I saw Rebecca and her Pegasus gallop my way.

"What do you want?" I asked her

"I heard you're going to GDA,"

"Well you heard right. Is that all?"

"I just wanted to give you some advice for our shopping trip tomorrow," I rolled my eyes

"That's all right I know how to buy clothes,"

"Oh no I insist, 'cuz judging from your jeans, shoes, hair, nose piercing-"

"I get it. You only wear the junk with frills, and pink stuff then, you think its ok to insult every one else's style," I commented regaining my smirk making her sarcastic smile fade to anger. She left without one more word and I went to my stable to brush up stormy.

After dinner I went into my cabin, took a bottle of water and sat on my bed. After uncapping it I started to practice some water tricks: levitation, designs and freezing (ice is water too). And after Percy calling lights out I fell asleep like Hypnos was playing tricks on me.

Early that morning after breakfast, Alaine and I got dressed up for the trip. She wore her skinny jeans, green shirt and grey converse, with her hair out loose and I wore my green camouflage tank top, grey hoodie zipped up half way with the sleeves rolled up, charm bracelet, denim converse, and nose stud with my curly hair tied my long curly hair up in a messy bun.

As we climbed to the peak of half blood hill, I noticed that a long line of school busses lined up at the bottom. It took me that long to realize that over 300 demigods came to this camp.

Alaine and I entered a bus and took seats at the back. Alaine and I talked about the new school and stores we would visit at the mall. When we reached there everyone ran into it and branched of into every direction. Chiron was paying for everything, thanks to our strawberry field. I ran up the escalator heading to the store I've been aiming to visit: Hot Topic.

By the time I was finished, I had bags of graphic tees, jeans, jewelry, I even got some suspenders. I met up with Alaine and her sister at Macy's. They may be twins but they sure have different personalities. Alaine had jeans, Kyra had skirts, Alaine red, and Kyra pink- if they didn't look alike I would never guess they were twins. I bought a really cute jacket and some boots there. After we grabbed something to eat and later Kyra insisted on getting our hair done. Alaine and Kyra got similar straight like hair styles and I got wavy. Alaine said that we should get dye but then I reminded her that's what the Iris kids were for.

Ok have any ideas just PM me. Oh, and Rview! Review! Review!
