Prologue:

I was standing on a flying ship waiting to get off the ship. The ladder down allowing everyone to get off. We all waiting getting ready to climb off and defat anything that we had to. I heard yelling below and made my way to the ladder quickly climbing down it to see what the yelling was.

I didn't know what we were going to fine down there but I was ready. I was almost excited for whatever we found. As long as we were all together everything would be fine. Hold on I'm getting ahead of myself, let me explain.

My name is Angelica. Angelica Ray and this is my story.

—Backstory—

I am a demigod and have lived most of my life alone. I know what you might be thinking. You are thinking there is no such thing as gods but let me tell you there are. They are as real as you and me and they are quite rude. They are really bug jerks.

I have lived my life alone and without parents. Since my parents were myths and couldn't take care of me they left me at the doorstep of an orphanage, but I ran away from that home when I turned 5. I was constantly made fun of because of my looks or because of things that I was able to do that couldn't be explained. I ran away and lived on the streets. I leaved how to get food, find shelter, and taught myself how to pickpocket. I learned to survive on the streets for several years taking care of myself.

When I turned 12 a boy with black hair and sea green eyes came and told me I needed to go with him. There was also a girl with him, she had blonde hair and grey eyes. At first, I told them that I would go with them unless they explained and that is exactly what they did. they told me that I was a demigod and that I was in trouble and had to go with them. I didn't believe that they told me and I tried to run off but somehow, they had found me each time I ran. After the game of tag, I finally agreed to go with them. They lead me to a camp full of people and creatures I had never seen. They said the camp was called Camp Half-Blood and it was for people like me., Half-bloods.

They gave me a tour of the camp showing me around and telling me where I would stay and things like that. They lead me to a building and took me inside. Inside the building the walls were lined up with weapons of all kinds. The boy, who I learned was called Percy, told me to pick any weapon/s that I wanted.

I looked at him for a few minutes before I turned to all the weapons. The weapons were so beautiful. I felt like something was calling me. My feet seemed to move on their own as I walked over to a set of daggers. They were a deep purple metal with black leather for the hilts. As I was walking back over to Percy I stopped at a bow. It was a long recurve bow that had a swirling design engraved into the wood, and next to it there was a quiver of arrows. I picked it up and showed it to Percy and he told me to grab both of them. I told him thank probably five times.

He led me to the Hephaestus cabin where he told me I could ask them to make my bow and quiver into a something else that would be easier to carry around. I asked them if they would make it into a ring for me so that I could always have it on me even if I didn't need it. They even offered to put a few weapons into it as a test to see if they could. I told them they could try and they said they would. They said they would try to put my bow, a sword, and a spear into it. I thanked them and stated to move to the exist but they continued asking me things. I answered all these questions and then we headed off, they told me that they would be done in maybe three days and that one of them would find me and give it to me when they were completely done with it.

I thanked them again as Percy dragged me out of the cabin. He led me away to a different cabin.

He took me to the Hermes cabin since they didn't know who my parents were. They asked me a bunch of questions about my human parent but I told them that I didn't have any and it seemed to puzzle them even further.

It had been about a week that I was there and today we were getting ready to play a game of capture the flag. It was the first time that I was going to play it and I was really excited.

I had gotten all prepared and was hiding by our flag in the trees, my bow ready and loaded ready to shot anyone who got close. After a few minutes the horn was blown and screaming and shooting began. It wasn't much more waiting before the first person came through finding the flag but they were quickly taken out, by an arrow to the legs.

There was one woman who came through. Her body posture bug and put together. I knew she would be a problem so I climbed down and pulled my daggers out ready to attack. We fought for what seemed like forever both landing blows on each other. She landing her spear into my shoulder sending a painful shock of electricity through my body. I fell back into the stream as I cradled my bleeding and burning shoulder.

As I laid in the water the burning sensation slowly disappeared and there was no pain left. As I stood up I saw the girl look back at me her lips pursed back in anger. She went to reach the flag and I moved to get her but instead of moving a blast of water shot out of the stream and hit the girl. She flew back her back hitting the ground sending an awful crunch. I stood frozen in the stream as a bunch of people came into the clearing. One of them was the girl who found me with Percy, who I learned was Annabeth, and she was caring the opposite team's flag.

I let out a sign but it was cut off when a bolt of Lightning struck me in the chest. I let out a cry and fell into the water again. My clothes were soaking wet and my body stung. I breathed heavy breathes as I laid there, again after a few seconds the pain disappearing

I stood up and looked at the girl a glare forming on my face as I was more confident than I ever had been. I looked at her lifting my hand up and letting my anger run wild. The water rose up again and shot straight at her again. It hit her sending her flying back but this time she stood up immediately sending another shot of electricity. I blocked it with a wall of water and rose my hand ready to send another shot at her. Before I could a horn blew and the Camp director was standing in between us.

He told us to stop attacking and I nodded putting my hand down as I saw the girl put her spear down after a few minutes. We were about to walk off when something starting glowing above my head. I froze and I could tell that everybody else was in shake and frozen as well.

I looked up and saw a blue glowing trident above my head and something in my body just screamed that I was the daughter of Poseidon. I looked down from the symbol and saw that everybody had begun to bow. I noticed that girl I was fighting with staring at me anger filled her eyes making them look like fire.

I looked away coming face to face with Percy. He was telling me how excited he was that I was now his sister, well I guess half-sister. He led me away from the forest showing me the cabin that I would be staying in from now on.

The cabin was huge and beautiful. There were six bunk beds two of which had stuff on them but one looked like it hadn't been slept in, in a while, and a fountain in the center of the room. The fountain was a grey rock material, and had a fish that was spraying water out of its mouth, surrounding the fountain it was a coral-ish decoration and designs. I walked closer to the fountain and noticed that the bottom of it was filled with gold coins.

The room was so big and amazing it took my breathe away. I know that Percy knew it too because he was laughing as I stood there amazed.

As the days moved on I began to get to know that campers and we became friends but I was closest to Percy, Annabeth, and Grover. The girl who fought me during the capture the flags name was Clarise and I learned that she was basically he camp bully. She had something out for me and liked to pick on me the most.

—Time Skip—

After a several weeks or maybe months of being at the camp there was another prophecy given. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover all got chosen for it. They all left and I was alone at the camp. There were a few days were Tyson who I learned was another one of Poseidon kids and my half-brother. He was very nice and I loved him but it was hard to do things when Percy was still gone.

They returned after what felt like three months and maybe it was but when they finally returned I made them spend a whole day with me and they agreed. We spent the whole day talking, hanging out and swimming.

It was so much fun but that fun ended abruptly when three demi-gods fell into camp, literally. They fell from the sky and landed in the lake. Most of the people in camp had gathered by the lake to see what had happened, and what all the commotion was about. What we found was three demi-gods that had never been seen, Annabeth and another camper.

The new campers all climbed out of the water and as the last boy came out a glowing red hammer. A bunch of the campers walked forward and began talking to him, I assumed that they were Hephaestus' kids. They took the boy off as I watched. The other two were taken off by different campers as Annabeth walked over to me. Her face was in a frown and Her eyes watery. I knew something was wrong but I didn't know what. I stood frozen as she walked over.

She came over and told me how three days ago Percy went missing. He hadn't showed up one day and hasn't come back since then. She had gone to find him but instead found those three. She apologized about seven times as I stood there crying and screaming. He was the close thing that I had to family and now it was gone.

I hid in my cabin for days refusing to leave. Many days I wouldn't eat anything either. I knew that if I continued this that I would die or starve but I didn't care. I just wanted my family back and I couldn't do anything to do that and I hated it

There was a knock on my door one of the days. It was Annabeth who had knocked but I didn't really care. She had come in anyways and told me that a prophecy had been given. She told me that I should come along and that we might find Percy on it. That got me excited and I jumped at the opportunity to go.

She led me to the big house where we had all gathered to hear the prophecy and see who was going. Chiron called out who he wanted to go and then he took us all into the building and told us the prophecy. It was:

Eight Half-bloods shall

answer the call

To storm or fire the world

must fall

An oath to keep with a final

breath

And foes bear arms to the

doors of death

He told us where we had to go and what we must before telling us that we must leave immediately. We all knew that he meets now and that we had no time to lose so we started out but he told me to wait and that he needed to talk to me. He told me that he was happy I was alright but told me that I need to go see the Oracle and get the prophecy for myself.

I nodded and made my way to the attic where she was. She asked me what I needed and I told her that I wanted to know what I must do to save my family and friends. I wanted to know what my future had in store. She glowed green and words started to fly out of her mouth.

Into the darkness she will fall

To find the truth

She shall face her fear

Sacrifice or run she

will fall

And the queen will rise again

With the crown at

hand

I didn't know what to think of the prophecy or what it even meant. I didn't know what I needed to do and I sure didn't know where to look, regardless of that I still set out to find Percy.

We set off about a day later and we were this much closer to Percy I could feel it. We traveled to another camp but this one was for the Roman gods that we learned were real and that were almost exactly like the Greek ones, attitudes and all.

We found Percy there and Jason found out that he was from there. When we were here Leo and I stayed on the ship when everyone else went down to the ground. As we were up there something came onto the ship and took over Leo's body.

His eyes turned a bright gold and he started firing the weapons on the camp. I ran over to him pulling on his arm trying the pry him away from the controls. He pushed me away but I got back up and tried to talk to him grabbing hold of his arm again. He pushed me to the ground. I landed with a thud and a sore butt. I looked up at him but my vision went blurry.

I was able to make out a grin on his face as he held a screwdriver in his hand. I noticed his eyes turn brown again and his grin faltered but it went right back to the gold and that was the last I saw. My vision going completely black and I passed out.

When I had woken up I was in a bed with Leo sleeping in the chair next to me holding onto my hand. I felt butterflies in my stomach as my face turned red, but I pushed it aside ignoring it.

I sat up and moved my legs getting ready to stand up. I pushed off the bed standing up, but it didn't last as my legs gave out on me sending me to the floor. The next thing I knew Leo was next to me, the crash must have woken him. He quickly ran to my side helping me up. He had one arm around my waste, the butterflies coming back, and the other holding onto my arm that was wrapped around his neck.

He helped me walk up the stairs and onto the deck of this ship, as we walked he kept apologizing about hurting me but I told him it was fine and that it wasn't truly him who had done it, and that I didn't care. I also thanked him for all the help he gave me as we went upstairs. As we talked we were cut short by everyone yelling my name as we came onto the deck.

I was tackled by Annabeth, I had grown really close to her, and of course Percy. I hugged him back not wanting to let go of him thinking that I might lose him again. When I let go I notice two more people on the ship that I had never seen before. I was introduced to the learning their names were Hazel and Frank who were Roman demigods and who had gone on a quest with Percy. I thanked them for watching my brother and making sure that he didn't get into too much trouble by himself.

After that we continued on our trip making our way from place to place. We were attacked by monsters left and right, but we finally made it to Rome where we dropped Annabeth off for her quest. We stayed in Rome for a while waiting for her because Percy was paranoid. That is where this story takes place. This is the beginning of my story and my journey.
