(McKenna) (At the Sing-along aka Camp-Fire)
My hair was finally returned to its dark brownish-black color, and boy was that was a relief!
I was sitting in the middle of my two best buds, Zach and Jacobi, who were currently rocking their heads to the fast beat of the song that was currently playing.
"Demigods! May I please have your attention please!" Chiron shouted as he pounded his hoof on the ground.
Everyone stopped talking, & turned their attention to Chiron.
"I have very important news, to tell so listen very carefully!"
"We-"Mr. D cut him off finishing the sentence excitedly.
"We shall be going to Olympus for a week and a half! And you Brats-"Thunder boomed through the entire camp, the Camp-Fire flickering dangerously.
"… Uh I mean you precious gorgeous little children, will be sent home to your families, for the time being, except for those who don't have them, you poor dears! That is all!" Mr. D said, the Camp Fire turning back to normal…
Suddenly all of the joy & happiness, I was feeling, left me.
I would have to go back to…her.
"McKenna? … McKenna?" Zach waved his hand in front of my face.
"I'll be right back," I told him getting up, running after Chiron.
"Chiron?"
"Yes Child?" he asked a smile on his face.
"Well, I was wondering if I could go home with someone else, or… stay here," I asked him.
Chiron frowned.
"I'm sorry but you have to your legal guardian, rules are rules," Chiron told me, walking away.
I stood there, watching him & all of the other campers go to their cabins, emotionless.
(Percy)
"Percy?" McKenna asked, as I lay down in my bunk.
"Yeah?"
"What is your mom like?"
That caught me off guard…
"What do you want to know?"
"What does she look like?" she asked, looking down from her bunk, to mine.
"Well… She has a very sweet voice, and always smells of sugar, chocolate, and everything else you would find in a candy shop... She has a warm smile, and long straight brown hair with a few gray strands in it, but, otherwise, doesn't look old. Her eyes are sparkly blue, and they are said to change colors in the light. She also laughs a lot, which makes her even better." I said smiling to myself.
"Is she Nice?"
"You bet all of the Drachmas in the world she is! She is very kind, and passionate. She makes the BEST blue chocolate chip cookies in the world, she works very hard, and doesn't complain, never has said an unkind word to anyone."
I then started to tell her everything, such as my favorite places to eat, places to hang out, and about the apartment.
"…What is your mom like?" I asked her, trying to be kind.
She didn't reply and I knew that I struck a nerve…
"Night Percy," she mumbled.
"Night," I replied back wondering what the Hades was going on…
(McKenna) (2 days later… or in other words the day that they go home)
Today was going to be the worst day of my life.
Going home to that Witch was like going to Hades.
"I'm gonna miss you Fishy Face, since I'm going to go to the underworld with Nico," Zach told me as we hugged each other… I swore I heard a squeal…
"I'll miss you too, Skull Head" I whispered.
We hugged one more time before Nico came up to me and asked if I was ready.
"Yeah, unfortunately,"
Nico smirked at my remark, about to tell me something when I saw Percy and told him to wait.
"Percy!" I called out to him.
"Hey McKenna I was looking-Oof!" I tackled him with a hug.
"I'll miss you too?" Percy said jokingly while, ruffling my hair.
"Here take this, we can use it to Iris message," he said giving me an old coin.
"Thanks," I said as I stopped hugging him and accepted the coin.
"Have fun!" he said as I went over to Nico.
"I'm ready," I told him.
"Okay hold on and don't let go." He told me as I followed his directions.
I suddenly felt cold, screams could be heard, and things were grabbing at my feet.
Then… it all went away & I looked to find that we were at my house.
"Thanks,"
"No Problem," he replied as he disappeared, into the shadows.
I gulped, and proceeded to the front door, opening it to be almost hit by a beer bottle, which crashed into the wall next to me.
"So the little devil decides to come home hasn't she?" My mom sneered, her words slurred.
"Yes I have," I replied back to her my attitude level rising up.
She walked up towards me, angered by the way I talked to her.
"Now listen here," she threatened, grabbing my by the hair and pushing me into the wall forcefully.
"Let's get one thing straight here, I am the Master, and you… are the slave," she spat at me.
I spit in her face, causing her to screech in anger.
"WHY YOU *****!" she screamed as, she dragged me to the kitchen by my hair.
"You're gonna pay for what you did," she pushed me to the ground and kicked me hard in the stomach, as she went to the drawer that held the knives.
Before I could get up she came over and sat on me a knife in her hand.
"Let's see… what I should do... Oh I know!"
I tried to struggle but it was no use…
She etched the knife into my left arm, wincing every time the knife cut into me.
"PLEASE STOP!" I pleaded loudly, billions of tears blinding me.
"You don't like?" she asked playing innocent.
I whimpered a yes.
"Then listen to me!" she spat, as she pulled me up face to face, grabbing my hair.
"You will stay in your room, doing nothing! I don't want to even hear you!" she told me as she threw me into my room, landing on the cold floor.
She laughed at the sight of me, curled up on the floor whimpering.
"No wonder they gave you up."
I looked up in mild confusion.
"What do you mean?"
"You were adopted you idiot!" she yelled.
"I…I… I was…adopted?" I whispered in complete shock.
"Yep, left right on my door step, you where," she said smirking.
"Why did you take me in then?"
"Because… I could always use a slave," she stated.
"I'm going to get some more beer don't try anything!"
And with that she left.
This left me with new found hope.
I took a glance at my arm, she had carved the word ***** into it, and the blood was still gushing out.
Knowing that I didn't have much time left, I threw on a jacket, & quickly got a duffel bag and stuffed all of my belongings in it, not that I really had any…
I sat on my bed thinking of a way out, when I heard a voice in my head:
"Use the orb of water on your Bracelet,"
Didn't need to tell me twice, I grabbed my duffle bag and slung it over my back, & unhooked the little orb of water from my bracelet, when my door slammed open, and my so called "mom" came running at me.
Just as she was about to hit me, I stepped out of the way and flung the orb of water on the ground, thinking about how Percy described his house.
I felt like I was literally turned into water vapor, and when I felt all the way solid I opened my eyes to find myself in a hallway, in front of Percy's apartment to be exact.
I knocked on the door, & heard someone shout:
"Percy, can you get that please?"
I cradled my left arm, hugging it closely, the pain in my arm getting worse each second.
"Hello?" Percy said as he opened the door.
"McKenna? What are you doing here? Come in," He told me as I limped in.
"Are you okay?" he asked and then saw the huge red stop on my jacket sleeve.
"MOM! Get the ambrosia!" Percy yelled.
He picked me up and hurried me down the hall into what seemed to be his bedroom and laid me down on the bed.
"Percy what's-"I knew suddenly that this was his mom.
She gasped and ran over to me, looking at the growing red spot on my arm.
As if Percy had done this before he took of my jacket and looked at my arm to see the word etched onto my arm.
"McKenna…What happened?...Who did this to you?" he asked looking at me.
I started to sob again, the tears streaming down my face.
"Shh! It'll be all right," Percy's mom comforted me, holding my hand, wiping my tears away, as Percy poured something over my arm, the wound sealing up, leaving a scar.
That was the last thing I remembered.
(Zach) (8pm)
I was very tired after today's shadow lesson with Nico. Who knew that traveling by shadows took a lot out of you?
But I wasn't bothered by that. I wondered what McKenna was doing…
MCKENNA! I almost forgot!
I found a nice big shadow and thought of her house, & suddenly I was there.
I walked inside and instantly smelt beer. Oh My Gods.
I saw a small trail of blood from the kitchen leading into McKenna's room.
I ran to her room calling her name, but when I got there, it was empty, like if nobody lived there…
I then thought of Percy and what his house looked liked… and like before I was there in no time.
I knocked on the door and Percy opened it his expression worried.
"Zach?"
"McKenna, she's…."
"Here," He said.
Percy motioned me to come in so I did.
He closed the door behind me, and led me to another door down the hallway and opened it to reveal her unconscious figure.
I ran over to her & sat on the side of the bed.
"Do you know what happened to her?" Percy asked confused.
"I have an idea," I said, looking at her arm.
I told him about her mom and the depressing childhood she had been through.
"Wow nobody should go through that," Percy said looking at his sister.
"Exactly," I said.
And I sat there for Gods who knows how long, holding her hand, in the dark…
Yay this was very fun to write!
Thank you for reviewing! I squealed like a child of Aphrodite for 10 whole minutes!
:D
