GINA

Demigods, gifted kids born from a bunch of cheaters, liars, and tyrants. I didn't used to feel this way, after all I considered myself one of them. I didn't think critically at all because they all welcomed me, made me feel special, like I could be a hero. I was imagining going on quests with my new boyfriend and other friends, fighting Monsters together like some kind of game.

But then… They all turned their backs on me. It was discovered that I was not the Child of any Olympian, nor the minor gods and goddesses. I was rather a child of their opposition, of a "traitor" as they say. I am instead the child of a Titan. I am Gina Kingston, the Daughter of Prometheus.

Only 13 years old and I am branded as an enemy by those I once trusted. Rob, my now ex-boyfriend has become my greatest bully. As a Child of Ares he seems to think that it's his job to keep me in check. He is the strongest in the camp right now, sure, but compared to the heroes of the past, like Percy Jackson, he is not that threatening.

It has been one month since I was exposed. I was at this camp for a year before being claimed, and what should have been the best day of my life turned into the beginning of a nightmare I could never wake up from. A full month straight of pain and misery. Being an outcast once again, just like it was before I came here. No… No it's worse than that.

I discovered my powers while working on an art project with the Athena kids, along with Rob who, at the time, was always near me to make sure I was safe. I made a figurine, looking like a 3D stick Figure, when it began to move. Everyone was shocked, especially me. We all began to wonder what this could mean, a Fire appeared over my head. At first we were thinking Hephaestus but his symbol was a hammer, but then Rob stood up and yelled out "Fire is a symbol for Prometheus!"

At first I was kinda happy to be claimed, but then I looked around, everyone else seemed scared, angry, or concerned. I didn't understand why, I mean usually being claimed was a moment of celebration right? Something worth having a party about like it's your birthday or something, right? But I understood once Rob explained it.

"She isn't a Demigod at all, She's a child of a Titan, the Demititan, and Titans are the enemies of the Gods right?!"

I couldn't talk, I thought Rob loved me, we were together all the time, he protected me, held me, even kissed me, my first kiss… so why was he looking at me with such disdain? Was being the child of a Titan really that big of a deal, was I actually THAT dangerous?

He kept talking, riling up the other kids in the room but I wasn't processing any of it. I was to busy having a complete mental breakdown at his sudden shift in behavior towards me. When I finally looked up his face was close to mine, and he smiled, a smile I have only seen when he gets into a battle exercise or a fight with other Ares kids. He then yelled out his battle cry and I ran away as fast as I could. I heard him laughing as I did… and it still haunts me.

Looking back he probably wasn't going to attack me, not in there at least. He wanted to scare me away, to make me fear him. And to be perfectly honest, it worked. Now he has a squad dedicated to making my time here as miserable as they can manage, mocking me, attacking me, spreading rumors, anything they can get away with they'll do.

I have been staying with Chiron for the time being, as Rob got everyone riled up about me being an invader in the camp. He has been making sure that Rob and his lackeys leave me alone. I know that there are kids around who don't think I am some evil invader, but nobody but Chiron will actually stand up and say it.

But Chiron has to leave tomorrow, and I am terrified of what will happen when he does.
