A/N I haven't posted much lately, but that's because I haven't really been on my computer a lot. School is a major drag, more and more work. I'm going to upload a bunch of chapters at once so in the words of Scar, Be Prepared! Hahaha Lion King reference! So here are multiple chapters of…..Demigod Problems.

Chapter 10

Percy led me back to the dining pavilion, careful to keep an eye on me. When I looked around for Reyna, she was nowhere to be found and come to think of it, neither was Octavian. Percy seemed to notice my distress and turned to me sympathetically.

"Do you want to sit with us Sophia?"

Percy gestured to Frank, Nico, and that new girl Hazel. I smiled and nodded in return. I took the seat in between Nico and Percy. The aurae brought over a warm chicken sandwich, a glass of cherry vanilla Coke, and a slice of key lime pie.

"Whoa wait, why don't I have any key lime pie?"

Frank glared at my plate enviously and then back down at his with disappointment. I spotted Franks face and chuckled.

"Maybe it's because you're not from the Florida Keys."

"And you are?" Frank raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah! I used to eat this stuff almost every day!" I dramatically took a bite of the pie.

"Oh Sophia," Nico caught my attention, "I forgot to tell you about our sister, Hazel Levesque."

Hazel looked in my direction and then glanced away, embarrassed.

"Really? Cool! Nice to meet you sis, you're new to camp right?"

"Relatively speaking, yes, nut you haven't been here a long time either right?"

"Actually I just came back from an extensive trip." I held out my arm. "See, four years."

Hazel gazed at my tattoo in awe as if she was looking at Jupiter himself.

"So Sophia," Nico decided to change the subject, "What was your life like before camp?"

I never really told anyone about this, my life before camp anyway. Octavian, Reyna, and Jason knew of course, but I hadn't told anyone else. Something told me that is anyone else were to know, these guys would be as good as any.

"Well, I lost my mom during childbirth, Catalina Alyxander, so I was put into a foster home at a very early age. When I was about nine years old my first family adopted me. I was extremely excited and in the beginning everything was going great. I had all I could ever want, a home and a loving family. Then one day, my foster parents went to the corner store to buy some bread and milk, when they came back, their house was surrounded by fire engines. The house was not doused in red flame, but with my own green fire. Being the deeply religious people that they were, they immediately sent me back to the orphanage on the assumption that I was some 'devil child'. I guess they weren't very far off though. I remained at the foster home after that, until Lupa took me away from Florida and brought me to camp."

No one dared to speak and their faces were molded into astonished stares.

"Wow," Nico started, pushing his food around with his fork, "I know how you feel. My mom died when I was young too."

"Even though I was all alone, I always felt like someone was watching over me. I figure that Dad felt bad for me, that's why when I turned thirteen he immediately claimed me."

Pluto always had a big soft spot for his children. I knew he felt terrible about mom. After all he was in love with her once too. After we finished eating, I bid Percy, Hazel, and Frank goodbye and set out for my cabin.

A/N NaNoWriMo is just getting worse and worse. Here I am typing up chapter 10 when I haven't even written today's chapter! Crap that reminds me. I have to write a new chapter! My friend is also going to a Starkid concert tonight and she's going to call me so I can listen in! They are playing in the House of Blues in Orlando tonight and I couldn't go since it's a Wednesday. Who schedules a concert on a school night? Well my friend is going to get me a t-shirt and try to rub it up against Brian Holden sooooooo….yeah. In case you don't know, Starkid is the college group that wrote A Very Potter Musical. Before I bore you to death I should go. Until next time!
