Does anyone know where Katie is in the Lost Hero? Travis was mentioned, but not Katie. I hope she is still alive she is one of my favorite. I still need a name for Katie's dad. Let me know if you have any ideas. Anyway here is chapter five.
Conners POV
Travis and I tried to blend into the shadows as Katie was yelling at her dad. I honestly knew exactly what she was talking about. Being left to fend for yourself. If it hadn't been for meeting her at school I doubt that I would still be here. The first day of 1st grade was the day we meet her. The image is crystal clear still.
Flashback
We saw the girl sitting doing her work in front of us. Suddenly Travis reached out and tugged on her braid. I had no idea what he was doing. She whipped around in her seat immediately.
"Don't touch my braid." That was all she said, but I was afraid if I did she would cut off my hand. Of course Travis pulled again but this time he also whispered, "What are we supposed to be doing."
"Read the board, and leave me alone."
"I can't read." I was shocked Travis never told anyone that. We spent most of our time hiding form our mom, because when she was home she was drunk. The girl turned around and studied his face to see if he was lying.
"Sorry, I'm Katie."
That week and for the rest of the year we stayed at Katie's house. She taught us everything we know now.
End Flashback
"Conner, Conner are you coming." Katie called from outside the car. I noticed they were all standing there waiting for me. I grabbed my bag and walked towards them. At the top of the hill Mr. Gardner spoke to us with a voice filled with emotion, "This is where I leave you. Good Luck and stay safe. Don't call, just write letters. Your life is about to get a whole lot better. Now go to the big farm house over there. I will see you soon." With that he walked back to the car. I looked at Katie and she had tears in her eyes. "Katie we have to go and do what he said." I barely whispered. "If we are doing this we are doing it my way. Race you there Stolls." With that she was of running with her braids flying behind her. I laughed and took off following her. When I turned around to make sure Travis was following I bumped into Katie and Travis ran into me and it became a dog pile with Katie on the bottom. "So there are three of you." replied a horse human thingy. "Annabeth please show these three to the Hermes cabin. We will explain after dinner or you can do it on your way."
How was that? Let me know if you want anything specific to happen while they are at camp besides capture the flag.
