Sarah
"You're scared of chickens?!"
Sarah, Logan, and Daphne were back in the car and Daphne had just explained why the hippalectryon had frightened her so much. "Hey, chickens are evil!" Daphne exclaimed, "When I was little a bunch of them got out of their coop and chased me around the plantation. They eventually chased me up a tree where I had to spend the night until one of our slaves found me and put the chickens back in the coop."
Sarah couldn't help but snicker. Logan completely lost it. "You got treed by a chicken?!" He said between laughs.
"There were three of them!" Daphne snarled, "And they were hungry! One of them ate part of my dress!" That only made Logan laugh louder.
Before Daphne had a chance to nail him Sarah changed the subject. "So, Logan, what did that guy mean when he called you a convict?"
Logan looked like she had told him his favorite pet had died, but he explained anyway. He told them how his dad had died when his house burned down, but he had survived, he told them about his time in Queen Mary's Home for Homeless Children and the person who looked after him: Uncle Thorn, and he told them about how Thorn had tried to kill him, ending with Logan crushing him under a 40 inch TV in a Macy's and Logan being sentenced to St. David's School for Troubled Children, AKA juvie.
"Wow." Was all Sarah could say.
"Yeah," Logan said sullenly, "about a year ago I figured out a way out, and a few days ago Thalia saved me from that wolf and brought me to camp."
Sarah knew it was normal for demigods to get into a lot of trouble in their lives, but she'd never heard of one going to juvie. She decided not to press Logan any further. "We're almost to Philidelphia." She informed them. With the sirens on in a cop car they were making pretty good time on their trip. Sarah knew it must have been hard for Daphne and Logan to share those things, but she could sympathize.
When she told them her secret it would blow theirs' out of the water.
