Hey all you people. How is it going? I need something from you guys. Can someone message me and volunteer to make a cover picture for this story. I can tell you the specifics of what I need on the picture after you contact me. It isn't a necessity but some people like to so I thought I would throw that out there for you.

Nicholas Brown, a hard working son of Demeter was taking a break to look over his strawberry plants. They were all growing up quickly and would be ready in about a week. Nothing brings a bigger smile to his face than his hard work paying off. He looked up into the sunrise that gave the dew strawberries a crystal like reflection. That's when he notices the sun getting bigger. Wait. Not bigger. Closer. OH SHIT! He hits the deck and a flaming bus flies right over him, giving him burns on his back but even worse, burning the strawberry plants.

I fall out of the bus and onto solid ground. I glance over at Percy and notice he is helping the hunter that sat beside him on the bus by holding her hair so she didn't vomit on it when she was puking on the ground. I am pretty sure one of the other hunters would be ticked at Percy for touching her but they all are currently releasing the contents of their stomachs. Speaking of that. I turn back to the ground to follow suit.

I look around see everyone looking like they just got out off of the world's most bumpy roller coaster. If it was 100 degrees the entire time and the coaster was on a boat during a hurricane. I even feel a little sick and I don't get motion sickness due to my father being the god of the sea, and sea sickness is just motion sickness. Annabeth seemed to be following suit. At this point I am just using my water control to keep the mess away from me. "So how is my favorite demigod that isn't my child?" Apollo's voice sounds as he approaches me. "That doesn't leave much selection with the amount of children you have." I said without thinking. Then I realized what I said. I am so screwed. Apollo stares me down for a good minute before he breaks into a bright smile and starts to laugh. "That's what I like about you Perce. Always tell it how you see it even if it is better not to. A god of truth can appreciate that." He just looks at my dumbfounded face and starts laughing again. Then he gets a very serious look on his face.

"I think I feel a haiku coming on.

Apollo's children,

Telling the truth is cool,

Percy is dumb."

With that done he walks back onto the sun and takes off. How can the god of poetry suck so badly at it?

############THE TIME PARADOX############# (A.N. This is my new way of showing gaps in time. Do you like it?)

I think I said this earlier but this day sucks. Straight up. everything about it. It gets worse the longer I am awake. I am now sitting at the hunter's table at...whatever the campers call their little mess area. Even though I have forgiven them, I still am feeling awkward around the hunt. I may have forgiven them but, even if I have tried, I can't forget yet. I go through the motions with everyone else. I follow the hunters to the fire in the corner where they dump large portions of their food in offering to Artemis. I follow suit but add a little for my mother and father...Whoever they are. I start to head back to the hunter's table when I notice every person in the mess area gawking at me. Why are they all looking at me!? Tears start to gather at in my eyes. Why can't I be accepted? Then I see Percy Jackson. He doesn't gawk. He just looks at me and sees my reaction to the gawking. He points somewhere over my head. At look up and see the reason for the gawking. Above my head glows a silver peacock that rest upon a hunting bow. A glowing trident hanging to the left of the peacock.

"All hail Bluebell, Child of Hera, Goddess of marriage, family, the sky and the starry heavens, Queen of the Gods. Legacy of Poseidon, God of the oceans, earth shaker, storm bringer, and lord of the ocean and horses. Adopted child of Artemis, Goddess of childbirth and the moon, night hunter, sister of all maidens." Chiron the centaur proclaimed before he bowed deeply followed by every person in attendance.

My mind couldn't take anymore. So I ran... I ran for as long as I could. I ran deep into the woods that the camp bordered. I didn't think. I ran. Thinking would only hurt me. I came to a clearing that held a giant pillar of rock...And promptly collapsed from emotional exhaustion. Then I sobbed. Not for any reason other than I needed to. The emotions needed some way to be released. I cried for what felt like hours. I cried until my eyes dried up and I couldn't cry any longer. Sometimes in the distance I would here people call my name. But they never got close to finding me. Then I heard it. The rumble of thunder. Then it got louder. Like a wave of rain, the storm hit. Torrents of rain fell down on me soaking me and ruining my clothes. The cold start to bite it my bones. Even if it was rain, storms in the winter are cold. Then the lightning. It came down, Zeus's fingers striking the tallest trees, his rage unparallel. I could feel the static in the air. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up. Then in a bright flash, my world rocked with pain. My ears rang and a metallic taste filled my mouth. Then everything faded away, like the last rays of light before Alaska is plunged into darkness.

Alrighty, everyone that is a wrap. If anyone thinks that this chapter seems rushed, then my objective is complete. It was meant to feel that way. Another thing, if anyone feels the need to beta read this story, then feel free to PM me. I sorta need it. Thank you Kinjaz01 and Gabby Daughter of Poseidon for the encouragement. Gloom out...
