Chapter One: Eye Opening? No Thank You!
I didn't want to open my eyes. I like to sleep way too much for eye opening this early in the morning. I mean, c'mon! It's only one PM, mom!
"Olivia!"
I groaned and punched my pillow. Must you just go and make me open my eyes. IT IS ONLY ONE PM! Yeah, you heard me right, PM. I like my sleep, okay? If you do have a problem with that, then that's your problem created off my sleeping habits. So yeah.
I sat up, "Mom! I am trying to sleep. I need it."
"You can't have habits like this, Olivia," she replied. "You do have to get up early when you're at camp."
"And I know that! But right now, I don't."
"But I'm you mother, and I say you do, so you do."
My mother out-smarted me. Ugh!
I climbed out of bed as my mother closed the door to my room, calling over her shoulder, "Remember that we're going to the beach later today!"
I probably would've gone back to sleep after the stupid eye opening ritual (yeah, that's what I call it), but when my mother said beach, I bounced out of bed. Yeah, I bounced.
You see, I have this pull to water, just like my younger brother and father. Probably because my grandfather is the sea god, Poseidon.
Now my mother is super smart, and it's a bit scary sometimes. She always has a plan. Always. You might have been able to guess my grandmother is Athena. Well, she's one of my grandmothers.
Did I mention my parents are Percy and Annabeth Jackson?
You know, the Percy Jackson that saved us all? And the Annabeth that helped him do it? I think you know that story. And if you don't, well, I just finished my eye opening ritual, so go ask my brother, Ryan.
Ryan is one annoying little brat. You know what? I'm not even going to go into what's happened with that thing. I'll just let you meet him yourself.
