As the old Camaro rocketed into the camp, Annabeth looked up from a book she was reading, about famous landmarks.
What's going on? She thought, as she had no idea how or when Grover would be getting back.
"Seaweed Brain! Do you have any idea what's going on!" Annabeth yelled, choosing her favourite insult to grab Percy's attention.
Percy walked out of his cabin, and shook his head. "Its loud and annoying though." Percy answered, glaring in the direction of the ruckus.
At that point, the car burst up the hill, and headed directly towards the big house.
Inside the car, Grover was screaming. "Put the brakes on you stupid demigod!" Grover screamed.
Ayden just laughed, and turned the wheel, heading for Zeus's fist, the formation of rocks that either looked like a fist, or deer droppings, depending on how you looked at it.
Marcus just sighed. "Brake now genius, else we'll hit those stone deer droppings." Marcus stated, dryly.
At that point, they heard a rumble of thunder. "Did I say something wrong?" Marcus asked.
Ayden slammed his foot down on the brake, but to his horror, the car wouldn't slow down! "Aww crap!" Ayden moaned, as he tried to avoid the rocks by turning the wheel. The steering wheel fell of, into Ayden's lap. "Dammit!" he yelled, taking his foot off of the accelerator. But something went wrong, and the car moved faster.
Meanwhile, quite a crowd had gathered to watch the car speed up and head right towards Zeus's fist.
Percy was nearly ruining his pants, and Annabeth was on the ground, beating the ground with her fists. Charles Beckendorf was in tears because of his laughter and Silena Beauregard was laughing wildly. Clarisse just couldn't contain herself and was ready to burst out laughing, something that was rarely seen.
The Camaro collided with the rock formation, and the passengers were thrown around inside the car, but were safe, it was Ayden who was in the most danger.
He was thrown out of the front window, and just before he collided with the rocks at high speed, an eagle flew down from nowhere and rescued the boy from almost certain death.
But, the eagle just dropped him behind the Camaro and flew back to where it had appeared from. He stood up, his face covered in blood from where the glass had cut him, and managed to run over to the damaged car, and pulled an unconscious Marcus out from the wreckage, and helped Grover get out.
It was that moment when Ayden passed out, and hit the ground hard.
When he awoke, he saw a centaur standing over him. He looked to his sides and saw Marcus in the bed next to his.
"You're a lucky kid, if it wasn't for Zeus's intervention, you'd be dead right now." Chiron stated dryly. "Excuse me mister centaur, but where am I?" Ayden asked, worried about Marcus, who was still unconscious.
"Camp Infirmary, at Camp Half Blood," Chiron answered, and began turning to Grover. "How could you let these kids drive a car to camp!?" Chiron asked in confusion.
Grover shuffled his hooves uncomfortably. "Well, ah, you see, in all the, uh, excitement, and the, uh, thought of, ah, having to walk from the airport, all the way to camp, was, uh, daunting, so, we, err, decided to, shorten the journey." Grover answered, sheepishly.
Chiron rolled his eyes. "Well, the important thing is that you're safe, I guess." Chiron commented.
A few hours later, Ayden had been given the tour of the camp, as he was well enough to walk around and stuff.
As Chiron showed him the cabin he would be staying in, the Hermes cabin, for now, Ayden smiled. "Wow, this place is awesome….although, how do we find out who our parents are?" Ayden asked. Chiron grinned at this statement. "When you have proven your worth to your father or mother, they shall claim you as theirs. It can take a while, or a very short period of time, but if you work hard, you will definitely find out who your father or mother is." Chiron answered, smiling.
Ayden nodded. "Well thanks Chiron, so, what do I do now that I'm here?" Ayden asked.
Chiron grinned from ear to ear. "Well, the campers here have just gotten into a new sport, which we'll play tomorrow." Chiron answered.
Ayden laughed. "What is it?" Ayden asked.
Chiron grinned again. "The sport, Ayden, is simple, fun, and fast, Dodgeball." Chiron answered…
