The so called safe house was actually a mansion. Logan, Ivy, and I approached the main gate.
"Anoichtó" Logan said to the gate and it opened. I wondered what language that was in.
There was a sidewalk leading up to the front door with an amazing garden outside. There were statues and hedges of the Gods and mythical creatures like Minotaurs and Centaurs. We reached the door and I was surprised to see that the door had no handles, no doorbell or knocker. Then Logan took his pocket knife out of his pocket and cut his finger with it. He smeared his finger, with the blood, against the door. The blood soon faded and the door opened.
When the doors fully opened I saw two girls slightly younger than me standing there. One had hair as red as fire and the other had brown silky hair.
"You're back!" the red-head exclaimed.
"And you brought the daughter of the sky god." The other said.
"Skylar, meet Saffron" Logan indicated to the red head. "And Amy,"he said indicating the brunette next.
"Nice to meet you." I told both of them.
"You'll be staying here now. It's the safest place for people like us."Saffron said.
"People like us?" I asked.
"Yes, us Demigods silly!" Saffron giggled (like Hades). "The perimeter of the house is protected from monsters and Gods alike. Well come on I'll show you to your room, where you can freshen up before dinner."
I looked down at myself and realized I was covered in dirt and garbage. Then I glanced sideways at Logan and realized his orange undershirt was damp with red liquid.
"Logan! You're bleeding!" I exclaimed.
"I'm fine, it's nothing, and I've been through a lot worse." Logan told me but I still wasn't so sure. Although I let Saffron lead me off to my room.
"So who all lives here?" I asked her.
"A lot of us." She said. "The mansion belongs to Ariadne, daughter of Hades. We separate the mansion according to our godly parents. There is three floors here, the top floor is the smallest but it houses the children of the big three, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. After that it's the children of the female gods on the second floor and then housed on the first floor are the children of the male gods. The basement is where we practice battle training and work on weapons."
I nodded. It seemed quite organized here. "How many people live here?"
"Hmm, well now including you, ten of us. The oldest is Ivy, I believe you know her; she's the daughter of Aphrodite. Roy's next he's 17 and my brother, we're children of Hephaestus. Then there's Daniel, child of Poseidon and May our Oracle. Then there's Logan and Ariadne, same age, 15, Logan son of Apollo and Ariadne child of Hades. After them there's Amy, who you just met, daughter of Athena and finally little Tobi, he's 8 and a son of Ares." Saffron explained. "And here's your room." She opened the door and I gasped.
There was a large bed right in the center of the room, at least queen size. The walls were painted with thunder and lightning bolts and clouds and wind. On one wall was a large painting of Zeus. This was truly a room for a child of Zeus.
"I'll let you freshen up. There's a bathroom across the hall and some clothes in the dresser." With that Saffron left, and I started wondering if this was all a dream or truly real.

I got lost when I went to dinner. Like literally lost. I couldn't find my way to the dining hall.
"You lost?" I jumped when someone asked. I looked towards the voice and then a girl literally materialized out of the shadows. "I'm Ariadne." She said. "And I bet you're Skylar."
I nodded. "So you own the house?"
Ariadne nodded. "Yes, my mom is rich, but she got freaked out when she found out who my dad really was and what I was and then she just left but in her hurry she left behind piles of money and precious jewels which I sold, most of them anyways. Anyways I guess I better show you to dinner, come on."
We walked through the halls and I knew I was just going to get lost again, I was glad Ariadne was here now.

"What's this?" I asked Logan pointing to a chart on the wall. It was the next morning and Logan decided that I better start training. Now we were in the basement and I noticed a chart with people's names on it.
"Oh that, that's a chart telling about every person in the house's powers. When you're a demigod sometimes you get special powers from your godly parent. It also lists our special skills in battle."Logan said and then started to read it off:
"Ivy, former huntress of Artemis, skilled with bow and arrow
Roy, produces fire by snapping his fingers
Daniel, can use water in any form he likes and not get wet, at least, when he doesn't want to
Ariadne, disappears into the shadows and can raise the dead as minions
Me, turn off the light of the sun in certain areas
Amy, can tell by looking at the person who their godly parent is
Saffron, skilled in making weapons
Tobi, very skilled in the art of war" he read clearly and then picked up a marker. He added my name to the list. "Let's see what you're good at."
