Sorry i haven't updated in a while, I have been reading the Son of Neptune and my computer broke down!

Julia's POV

I woke up with a start. I was still very mad at myself for losing my only friend... and the rest. i even changed to purple socks in shame.

In the morning, I was woken up by a loud pounding noise at my window. I got up and looked out to see a girl with blond hair and blue eyes, staring right at me.

"Hi. You must be Julia. Your daddy's girl aren't ya?" She asked, with a smile. She was wearing what Nico would call 'gothic' clothes, while I call them crazy.

"Hi. Um... who are you? I am pretty sure that people say that to help a crazy person, not to send another crazy person after them?" I asked with curiousity. Man did she get mad.

She got this really angry expression, and started to reach towards something sharp and shiny in her pocket. Then she just sighed, then said "Look, I was here to show you around camp. My name is Alexandra McDillion, but please don't wear it out."

I climbed out the window with her. This girl was really creeping me out. She seemed to have an interest in sharp objects, which would clearly state she doesn't like socks. I growled at the thought.

Alex (she demanded me to call her) showed ma around the camp, all the cabins that were like CHB but just with different designs and people in it, the sea, the orange room (which is where they 'work' for my dad.), the dinner place, and my dad's palace.

I was confused because Alex wouldn't tell me a thing about what they "work" on in the orange room.

We started walking in the direction of the palace, where I saw all my friends (or used to be) standing outside of the enormous dark pink gate. They looked all very nervous, but when they saw me, they looked murderous. Especially Nico... which made me feel worse.

"Move out of the way! We have to talk to Koalemos, well Julia has too anyway. You newbies should go to the orange room." Alex said, making me feel worse. It seems like I should be the one studying my tapes.

"One word to our dear friend Julia." Conner said, then everyone looked straight at me. "You will never, I repeat never, receive our trust again." Travis finished for his brother.

"Please guys just listen! I-" I was about to say, until Nico interrupted.

"GO AWAY!" he yelled, then shadow traveled everyone to the orange room.

I lowered my head in pain and regret. At least someone tried to cheer me up... too bad that person is crazy. "Julia, its okay. I think they are only mad because your dad might have given them the gift." Alex said, making me wonder.

"What gift?" I asked wonderingly.

"You know, the gift that seperates Ssatuns from demigods. Koalemos gives the gifts to people who will be important, but you are born with the gift naturally since you are his daughter."

Alex sounded like a real tour guide. I tried to smile, the realized that I was doing to her what everyone at camp did to me: fake it.

The large gates opened to reveal a drawbridge over a moat of mud. Alex led us in.

Inside the beautiful castle was a bunch of random things: buttons, hair ties, speaker phones, light bulbs, etc. It was my dream world.

There were many hallways, and we took like five before coming to a door. It was one of those old fashion wooden ones... but this one with a door bell, that Alex beat me to ringing.

A man opened the door. He had black hair and light purple eyes... like me. This was Koalemos, god of the dumb, and Stupidity.

He was very tall, about 7'9 and he dressed in silky, funny colored robes. He welcomed us in.

The first thing he did, was hug me. Even though I haven't met him in my life, I hugged back because I really needed a hug.

"My Daughter has returned! Where have you been? Oh why have you left?" He asked after letting go of me.

I gulped. "Um... I have been at Camp Half-blood with my friends. I don't remember anything but that." I said, while looking at Alex for help.

"No. You were gone right after the war. You were only a baby! I wonder and wonder what happened." He said. I suddenly felt even more guilty, because I knew he was really worried.

"I have been fine. I have... I mean had friends. But how did you find me after so long and why did you ruin camp?" I asked because i had suddenly remembered that I should be mad.

"Well, that young lady over there." He said gestering towards Alex, then continuing speaking. "She was reruited here, and instantly went to work. I was so happy, I zapped myself there, and fought off everything that came towards me. I destroyed a few things because the only reason you could have gotten there was kidnapped." he said as if he was the smartest person in the world.

"Sir, you should tell her the... important parts." said Alex.

"Oh yes! Thank you for reminding me Alexandra! Julia, there is going to be a war... and you caused it." He said.

I fainted on the spot.

okay! I hope you liked it! Please submit a Ssatun! Answer why you think Julia fainted, what she has to do to get her friends back, and where she needs to go to stop the war!
