So here is chapter 2.

APRIL POV-

I love the gods, I really do. But there are only so many surprise missions I can take. The gods had given me no warning, no hints and certainly no time to prepare. They just zapped me with lightning and by the time I had blinked the spots out of my eyes, I was standing in a spot I hadn't been to in 12 long years.
The park hadn't changed much since I was last there. The large evergreen trees still stood protectively around the edge of the park. Lush green grass blanketed the centre, providing a soft floor for the crowds of children to run across.
Football playing children ran rampant and in between them, kids threw Frisbees around with such an aim it made me want to open a school. So the children would at least get within 3 feet of their target. Littered around were crowds of other families and friends, laughing and talking, taking pictures and- I felt a little homesick upon seeing this- having picnics.
I remembered the picnics I used to have when I was young. Back when I was 7, the last picnic I had had with my family before I had had to leave. For a moment, I was engrossed in my memories.

April and her brother ran excitedly into the park from the beach. The park opened into the beach so people could frolic between the two.
Both children ran to a large spot of grass and jumped up and down excitedly.
"Hurry up mummy. " They both yelled. They ran and got the blanket out of her hands and their mother laughed as they tried to lay it out flat.

Eventually she reached them and laid the blanked out. The two children jumped on to it excitedly and made themselves comfortable. Then the picnic began.
April could remember the taste of the food that day. Home made hotdogs with tomato sauce and mustard. Jam sandwiches and chocolate cake slices. There was fizzy lemonade and cold water and glasses of blue coloured milk.
April hadn't had blue milk in 12 years. Not since that day.

As I shook myself out of my memory, I noticed a fizzy object floating in front of me. A piece of paper. it was my mission letter.

"Sorry darling. Big mission. This could be your last. See who you meet. Sorry about the warning. Don't die on me."

I rolled my eyes. Great info dad. Like I wasn't already thinking of that.

"P.S- I got you your favourite little toys to help with any hindrances."

I looked at the little objects in my hand. They were teardrop shaped and made of ice so when I smashed or melted them against anything, it would freeze it for 30 seconds. It wasn't long but I am literally the Queen on improvising on short amounts of time. This Isn't me boasting, I knew I could fight good, but that didn't mean I became too self confidant.
I scanned the park from where I was standing, sensing for any danger or reason about why I was sent here. No-one gave me a second glance as they walked past. I could blend in perfectly.
Now, you're probably thinking, how does a Demi-god (For yes, I was a Demi-god) fighter and a girl who had some godly powers blend in?
Well I found it easy, I just went out as myself. I have large almond shaped brown eyes and long honey-brown hair that went down to the back of my knees. It was naturally streaked with shades of gold, like my dad's sandy brown and gold hair. I am the average height for a girl, maybe a bit taller.
The only thing that got people staring was the general look of my face. And the only people who stared were stereo- typical guys who judge girls by their covers. My face looked young and innocent naturally. It was like that innocent "I'm cute." 4 year olds had but only I am 18 years old now.
I am sometimes mistaken for a 16 year old, or even a mature 14 year old, all because of my face and long, cute hair. But I don't mind. When I went on missions for the gods, (Which was like every 5 minutes. ) it meant my enemies underestimated me. And that made my pounce all the more deadly.
Sorry, that probably makes me sound like some crazy killer girl.
So you probably want to know the whole deal about me and the missions for the gods so here it is.
You ever heard of Hercules or Odysseus or one of those famous heroes? Of course you have, or this book must seem like absolute nonsense. Well I'm like one of those heroes, except no-one knows who I am.
Why? you ask. Well... everyone thinks I'm dead. Why? Again. Well... and you better pay attention... here goes.
Me and my brother are Demi-gods. I won't mention who my brother is or who my father is because it's more mysterious that way and I like being plain annoying. Ok, don't hit me. I'll give you one clue. You know him very well.
Usually, Demi-gods are found and find out about their true heritage at about 12. But I'm a clever girl. I'm good at all that mystery stuff. That's why the gods chose me.
Anyway, when a Demi-god figures out they're a Demi-god, it makes their scent stronger to monsters. Now by scent, I don't mean that Demi-gods never shower, they just have a Demi-god-ly scent that monsters can track and use to kill them. No biggie.
So when I worked out I was a Demi-god, the gods knew. Especially my father who keeps an eye on all his children. So the gods decided that they would enlist the help of this girl. I looked so innocent but had so much potential that they could teach me how to survive and use me for important missions.
This was only meant to be like a spies job. You know, they live normally most of the time and go on missions only every so often. But when the gods came to take me, they took me on a boat. However, I thought they were abducting me and 2 slap fights later, I exploded the boat and jumped off to swim to safety.
Now, the gods weren't harmed. They're gods. But as I swam off the boat, they got Poseidon to take me to his underwater palace where they told me their ideas.
This was all good, I was fine...But my family didn't know that. All they knew is that one day, I went for a swim in the sea, got too close to a boat and died in the freak explosion.
And my poor brother probably thinks I'm dead.
But that was all about to change because at that moment I looked up and saw the people I was meant to be protecting, being followed by giants. How they didn't notice them I couldn't figure.
Ah... I spoke too soon. They turned and saw them. And as they did so I saw them too, there stood a boy I thought I'd never see again. My brother.
