Carter POV

One minute I'm dreaming of Zia Rashid, the next I'm wondering where the heck I am.

When I first woke up, I instantly noticed that I was in unfamiliar surroundings. Then my thoughts went to Sadie. I sat bolt up in bed and all the drowsiness was gone. I reached for my dads magic kit and realized that it wasn't there.

I looked around and saw that I was in some sort of room that had a mirror, a wardrobe, a refrigerator, and the bed I was sitting on. In the corner sitting in a chair was a kid in an orange tshirt with jeans and blonde hair and they were asleep. When I didn't see Sadie I started to feel panic rise up in me.

Getting off the bed, I realized that I had bandages on my arm and a bandage on my cheek. I went to the mirror and peeled of the bandage on my cheek. Underneath was a nasty cut, but not nasty enough to keep the bandages. I saw the bruise on my forehead next. Then I looked under the arm bandages and decided that I didn't need it either. After I was done, I walked over to the kid and shook his shoulder.

His eyes were instantly open. When he saw it was me, he smiled. "Well. I see your finally awake. It's about time too. That other girl has been knocked out for awhile." Then he frowned. "And you removed your bandages."

"What other girl?" I asked, wondering if it was Sadie. The kid got up and walked over to the only door in the room. "You know, that girl that was with you when we found you being chased by the guys in black." Then the kid walked into the hallway and as I followed him I noticed the shields on the walls. Then the kid stopped and turned to face me. "You've got some explainng to do."

I crossed my arms and put on the same stern face I wore when dealing with Sadie. "I'm not saying anything until someone takes me to Sadie and tells me where I am." The kid had a confused look on his face. I sighed. "Sadie is the girl that was with me," I said slowly.

"Oh. Well, don't worry about her. She was pretty banged up, and we suspect that she'll sleep for a while, but she's in good hands." Then the kid muttered something about 'leaving a son of death with her was probably a bad idea, though'.

But the kid started walking down the hall again. "Hey, wait up! Where are we going?" I shouted following.

The kid merely said, "Chiron will explain everything now."


When we got to the arena and I walked in to introduce myself, everyone stared at me. I walked next to some dude on a horse, but when I got to the guy, I realized that he was the horse. I'm fairly certain that my eyes widened.

Trying to not stare, I asked, "Where am I? And who are you?"

The horse dude smiled at me kindly, but the dude with the leopard print shirt just looked at me and scowled. "I'm suprised that Zeus has let you live, with blood of the pharohs..." I heard him mutter. Then the horse dude cleared his throat.

"Hello Carter, my name is Chiron. This is Mr. D and he would prefer if you not ask what it stands for. But what do you know about the Greek gods, Carter?"

And so began the explanation of where I was, who these people were, and why it looked like a summer camp. It took about twenty minutes to explain, then on top of that I had to explain the Egyptian gods. After I was done, no one said anything.

We all sat there for a minute before Mr. D spoke. "So let me get this straight. You were being chased by House of Life magicians and now your here. Your guardians are the cat goddess, Bast, and your uncle, Amos. And now we have two children with blood of the pharohs who's dad just happens to be a powerful Egyptian death god, in our camp. Is that all?"

"...That pretty much sums it up, I suppose," I said.

Mr. D rolled his eyes until he was looking up at the sky. "Oh, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades, the gods will not be happy..." he cleared his throat. "Well, Cadder, you and your sister, Sandy, -" Chiron leaned over and whispered in his ear.

"Oh, Carter and Sadie, well you will have to stay here for the time being until we can assess that you're no real threat." I started to open my mouth to protest, but then he continued, "After all, you were being chased by the House of Life for a reason, I'm sure. You can stay with Patrick over there at the Poseidon table." Chiron leaned over to him again. "Er... Percy. He'll give you a bed and tell you the usual stuff. As for your sister...when she wakes up she'll join you."

"Can't I see her now?" I asked.

Chiron answered, "After you've eaten, you can see her. You look as though a good meal would do you good." I realized that he was probably right since the last time I had eaten was Basts' unedible breakfast that morning.

Chiron pointed out the table and I went and sat down. On the way over there people stared at me like they expected me to do backflips or something. Surely with this being a Greek demigod camp they'd seen odder things...

When I sat down, a satyr - is that what you call them? - came and gave me a plate with plenty of food. He put an empty goblet next to me but didnt put anything in it.

By that time everyone was talking and thats when I noticed the kid across from me. He had black hair and sea-green eyes. Like every one else in this weird camp, he had an orange Camp Half-Blood T-shirt. He looked about the same age as me.

"Umm...hi?" I said, not sure if he was gonna sit there and stare at me. That seemed to snap him out of his daze.

"Oh, uh, hi. My name's Percy Jackson." We sat in an awkward silence.

"So, um, that other girl, is your sister? Why don't you look alike?" I sighed inwardly. I hated it when people had that 'huh?' moment, then that 'Aha!' moment.

"Well my dad's African-American and my mom was white." Suddenly I heard footsteps and turned to look to see a girl with blonde hair and gray eyes walking up.

"Wow, Seaweed Brain, I knew you were dumb but not dumb enough to ask someone a question that clearly makes them uncomfortable," She said affectionately with a smile. Percy smiled back and scooted over for her. "Carter, I'd like you to meet my girlfriend, Annabeth Chase."

I started to introduce my self but Annabeth stopped me. "I know who you are, Carter. Oh, and I thought you might like your dad's magic kit back." She slid the case ove the table.

I smiled and took it. "Thanks. Are you a mind reader or something?" Annabeth laughed and Percy smiled. "No, but she is a daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom."

I nodded. "Like Thoth." When they had a confused look on there face, I told them about the Egyptian god. When I was done, they were nodding.

"So, um, how do you get your drink?" I asked.

"Just tell it what you want and it'll fill up." explained Annabeth. I was doubtful. "Anything?" They nodded again.

I wanted to test it out so I said, "Ginger Ale". Instantly it filled up. I tasted it and sure enough it was Ginger Ale.

"Wow" was the best thing I could think of to say.

We enjoyed our meal a little bit longer before they started asking questions again.

"So... Your dad's hosting Osiris? Is he really important?" asked Percy, putting down his goblet.

I nodded. "Yeah, Osiris was the king of the Egyptian gods, but his evil brother, Set, tricked him into getting into a box that Set shattered into pieces. So Isis went to find the pieces with her son and/or brother, Horus. Isis eventually found all the pieces and resurrected Osiris, but he had to become god of the dead since he was undead. When I hosted Horus and Sadie hosted Isis we helped Horus regain the throne from Set. And since my dad hosted Osiris when he died and Osiris was released from Set, my dad is still hosting him in the Land of the Dead."

They were silent for a moment. Annabeth overcame the shock first. "So you actually hosted an Egyptian god?" I nodded again. "It's easier for me and Sadie since were from blood of the pharohs."

I resumed eating while asking questions about their parents. That's when every one started filing out of the tables. One girl passed me and for a second I thought it was Sadie. Then I realized that it was only a girl with the same colored hair.

Speaking of Sadie...I snorted. Percy and Annabeth looked up in suprise. "What is it?" They asked at the same time.

I shrugged. "Sadie is implusive, so I wouldn't be suprised if she woke up and-" Suddenly a loud explosion cut me off and I think I could see a wall of what Percy and Annabeth called the Big House explode outwards.

"-blasted a hole in the wall." I finished with a sigh as we got up to run to the Big House.

Sadie was going to be in a lot of trouble this time...
