I had the craziest dream.

I dreamed I was standing in a dark room, knee deep in something wet. As my dream self lent down to touch the oozing wet stuff,I felt someone else's presence in the room. I turned around to see a lady in an extremely short skirt and a long knotted jumper, she looked as if she had got dressed in the dark. She had matted hair, a wonkey dog skull cap and red eyes. Her skin was so pale I thought she was about to faint.

"Hello," she grinned evily at me , " I wouldn't touch that. It's rabies water. Drink it and go mad. "

"That's comforting..."

"I am Lyssa, goddess of mad rage, fury, crazed frenzy and rabies. You have something I want, sssoooooo, give it to me!"

"What do you want?" I kept my eyes on her .

"You'll know," she smiled again. Lyssa bent down and touched the water.

" You know something, Calliope, I have been trapped here for eons! EONS! All of that time has been spent plotting to kill the next big hero! I couldn't kill Percy Jackson-"

"Sorry, who?"

"In good time, he came close, shame Luke's plan failed miserably. Stupid satyr!"

The water rised to my hips. "Err, miss Lyssa, could we hurry this up? Please?"

She bent down again but this time she drank water. " Until next time little hero! "

She rippled and fell to her knees. She growled angerly. Lyssa leaped out of the water with a mad gleam in her red eyes. She roared and propelled herself at me, baring her knife like claws.

Calliope~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Calliope

I woke up sweating and screaming. I relaxed when I realized I was not in that in that small, dark room. Instead I lay in a airy, bright room, I was lying on a camp bed, covered with a smooth bed cover. It was bright yellow, with tiny subs blinking all over it. Sweet smelling perfume swept through the room as a blonde boy entered.

"Hey, your awake. I ran up here as fast as I could when I heard you scream. Gee, Chiron has to invest in an elevator!" He smiled at me and my spirits lifted.

" I had a bad dream. Anyway, who are you? Where am I? What happened to my dad? Where is Robin?"

The blonde boy`s smile faded. He placed down a large jug he was carrying in the corner of the room and walked towards me. He knelt down next to me awkwardly.

"Well, you know the ancient Greek myths. There is more truth to them then it might seem. For example, you know Zeus ` s many affairs with mortal women?"

" Yeah... "

"That makes this easier. See," he ran his pale freckled hand through his golden curled hair , "to put it frankly, they are real."

" Figured as much. "

"Really? You are cleaver, maybe a child of Athena."

" Thanks. But it was kind of obvious. A pigeon turning into a harpy? A satyr?"

"But in all seriousness, finding out that the Greek gods are real messes some people up. This place is camp half blood, only safe for demigods, like us. Robin is down stairs. I `m not sure about your dad. The English human emergency services will look after him. " He stood up and brought out a large wooden box from underneath my bed.

"I am Indiana Shaw, by the way."

I smiled at him and tried to sit up but screamed with the shooting pain coming from my stomach.

"Hey, are you alright?!"

" Yeah Indiana. Thanks for asking. "

Indiana sighed with relief. He placed the box on the bed, it was painted with a strange symbols.

"Caduceus, Hermes symbol. Lyre, my dad's symbol -"

" Your dad? "

"Apollo."

" Wow. I am going mental!"

He opened the box carefully, took out a small bundle of bandages and placed them next to the box. Indiana unfolded the cloth and held up a small orange cube. Next to it he placed a vial of a strange liquid.

"Ambrosia and nectar. They heal, but do not have to much otherwise you die. Here you are!"

" I'll die?"

"As I said, if you have to much. "

"Huh..."

I drunk the vial of strange liquid and instantly felt better. I flavoured the taste and grinned.

"What does it taste of?" Indiana asked.

" Cranberries. Now chocolate milk. "

He rubbed his eyes and began pack his stuff away. I watched him as he did with a strange feeling. When he looked at me again, it felt as if my stomach had fell into my feet.

"Just call if you need me!"

"Ok. "

I tried to sit up again, as I did, I realised that the pain had disappeared. Indiana rinkled his freckled nose, " Strange, doesn't usually heal that quick. "

He picked up his medicine box and walked out of my room. Indiana leaned back though the door way.

"Oh, while I remember, how old are you?"

" 14, why do you ask? "

"No, this is bad. Real bad."

He disappeared through the door and I was left sitting in the room alone, wondering what my nightmare ment. I fell asleep again after four hours of starring at the ceiling. I had the dream again. Exactly the same one, but I still woke up screaming and sweating. Indiana came up again and talked to me about Camp half blood and the Greek gods and goddesses.

"Calliope, I think you're ready to meet Chiron and Mr D. But...just...just expect weird stuff to happen. As in really weird stuff."

"I don't think it can get any weirder then it is already! "

"Oh, you will be surprised. Real surprised how weird things can get here..."

Calliope~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Calliope

Indiana steaded me, "Hey, it's ok. I gotcha. There you go."

" Thanks Indie. "

As we stepped into the last level, Robin hugged me.

"Your alive! Thank you Indiana! Thank Apollo! I didn't fail! "

" What do you mean, fail? " I shook my head as Robin stepped back. He knotted his figures together and kicked the ground with his hoof.

"If you had died...then I would have been relieved of my duties. And, oh , it doesn't matter! Your alive!"

"That is a very good thing. I can feel you will do great things."

A man sitting in a wheel chair raised his hand to point at me. He looked like an old collage professer.

"Hello."

" Indiana, Will has called for you. Your cabin is at the archery range. Go quick! "

"Thank you Chiron! Good bye Chiron, Cal, Robin, Mr D!"

I blushed when he patted me on the shoulder. As Indie ran off, I noticed a rather sulky looking man hunched in the shadows.

"Well this is great! Another little hero! " He pouted.

"Calliope Weeks, I am Chiron, trainer of demigods, welcome to Camp half blood."
