I almost threw my dagger at Kayla's head when she and everyone else emerged from the underworld.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Kayla screamed at me.

"Oops," I responded and then glanced at Chris as he collapsed on the ground.

"I'm tired…" he groaned. Kayla, Clare and Nathan just left him there and walked over to the other hunters and me.

"So I'm guessing that the underworld was not the place," I said.

"No." Kayla said.

"I think I may know where it is though," Nathan said

"Where?" I asked.

"Olympus" Nathan said as if it were obvious.

"But Olympus isn't forbidden." Clare said.

"To mortals it is." He responded.

"But none of us are mortals." I said.

"That's because it's the wrong place." Belle said and we all stared at her. "It's San Francisco."

"Sand Francisco?" Chris repeated dragging himself over to us.

"That does make sense…" I said. "San Francisco has too many monsters; it makes it almost impossible for demigods to live there."

"Perish or survive… it does make sense…" Kayla said and then pulled out something from her bag. I realized it was a whip and I whidened my eyes. "We are going to survive!" she lashed the whip, "I'll rip apart all those monsters!" she whipped the whip again and this time Chris yelled.

"OW!"

"Sorry, forgot you were on the ground." Kayla said.

"But how are we suppose to be there? Its across the country." Clare explained.

"Camp Half-Blood van," Belle said even though she sounded discusted by the idea.

"Camp Half-blood has a can?" Kayla asked and I nodded.

"To camp half-blood then," Belle sighed and we made our way there.

Talion galoppled up to us as we walked into camp.

"Thank the gods you're not dead!" he sighed.

"We practically were…" I grumbled

"And of my, the hunters!" he exalcimed.

"Hello Talion," Belle greeted.

"This is exciting, I think a Capture the Flag game is in order" the centaur said.

"Thanks for the offer but we just came for the van." Belle said.

"The van? Why?" he asked amd Kayla explained even she included a description of her whip

LINE

"I see…" Talion said. "But you have to stay here for the night at least, of course the Artemis cabin is yours"

"Alright, I do have to accept that offer thank-you, Talion." Belle motioned for her hunters to follow as she led them towards the cabin. She glanced back at me.

"Comin?" Belle asked but I shook my head.

"I'll stay in my cabin." I said and Belle just nodded and kept walking

LINE

"So how long have you've been a hunter?" Clare asked me later that night in our cabin.

"Then years." I responded busy sharpening my dagger.

"So you've been 15 for 10 years…wow." Clare said. I just nodded.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door and I opened it. A handful of celestial bronze things was dropped at my feet.

I glanced up and Kaylie was there.

"More weapons?" I asked almost excited. She nodded.

Kaylie had five things for us. I took 2 and Clare took the other 3.

The first thing I had was a shield. It was a ring until I pressed the celestial bronze diamond on it. The other thing I got was a map, but not just any map, it tracked monsters.

Clare got a hairclip that turned into a helmet and she got a shiled like mine also. The last thing she got was a whistle. When she asked Kaylie what it was for Kaylie just smiled and said nothing

We stayed for breakfast the next morning. I still sat with Clare, after all the rest of the camp didn't know I was a hunter and otherwise she would be alone.

After we ate we all gathered up. We decided to take two vans. Belle would drive one with the hunters and Everyone else and I would be in the other.

I sat in the drivers seat and Clare looked at me.

"Do you even know how to drive?" she asked.

"Kinda sorta." I responded.

"Dear gods…" Chris mumble. "We are going to die…"

"We are not going to die! I haven't ran into a car and caused a freeway wide car crash in years!" I defended myself and started the van.

I followed Belle towards San Francisco. Kayla sat next to me in the passengers seat with the monster map while chris was in the middle row with Clare and Nathan in the back. As I drove I glanced back at Chris and noticed something odd.

"Hey Chris?" I asked.

"Hmm?" he said.

"Didn't you smash your necklace?" I asked realizing he was wearing it.

"Yeah I did." He said and then realized I was waiting for an explanation. "Oh, it reapheard in my pocket."

"Hmm…odd but handy." I said and then realized I wasn't paying attention and almost ran into Belle's van in front of us. I slowed down too fast and everyone flew forward.

"Hehe…oops!" I said.

"Yeah…we are sooo not going to die…" Chris mumbled.
