3. I follow Grover
We all stand there looking at each other. I look back and forth from the boy to my mom. My mom looks at me shocked, and the boy looks from me to my mom. Then supposedly Grover comes in. I turn around and see him. I grab my pocket knife quickly. He is panting. I start stepping back.
"Stay away from me, your like all the other monsters stay away from me!" I have my knife raised but I am backing away from him. The boy who is near my mom looks so shocks but manages to speak, "it's ok, Grover isn't a monster he won't hurt,"
"How would you know have you faces the monster I have!"
"Probably." He says with a reassuring smile. He looks like a trouble maker but I believe him he looks like he has face monsters. As I look at him my mom comes up and touches my shoulders surprising me. I look over at her face.
"It's ok Grover is fine he wouldn't hurt a fly." I then start to realize how tired my body is from running and how tired I am mentally from seeing things no one should see. My mother starts to rub my shoulders. I start to see some black spots. My legs turn into jello and I start to sink.
The boy catches me though. I feel him pick me up and carry me over to the couch. I see my mothers face above mine brushing my hair saying, "it's all right Atlanta it's all going to be alright." Then my body drifted off into sleep.
When I woke up I was still on the couch that I was on before but this time with a blanket on me. The boy from yesterday is sitting across from me. He looks at me as if he can read my mind. His eyes go deep into my head and I don't like it. He starts to say, "Mom! She woke up."
I just woke up but I feel like I could run a marathon. I start to sit up but all the pain I have been feeling for the last 2 months has just now washed over me. The boy starts to pull something from his pack, "here eat this" it looks like a brown square. I start to nibble on it, cookies warm fresh cookies. It runs through my system filling me up. I feel better all ready. My mom walks in noticing what I was eating
"Percy! What if she wasn't a demigod! She would die from that shame on you." She said hitting the dish towel she has on the table. He looked annoyed, "she just mentioned fighting monsters so I assumed and I don't think you and Gabe had a kid so..." He said. I was listening to this. Demigod? Monsters? gabe?
"Demigod?" My mom turned and looked at me. "Oh sweetie don't worry about yet you just woke up." She said with a smile. "Mom you said you would explain when she woke up." He said, wait mom? Does that mean he is my brother?
"Wait your my brother?" He looked at me with a trouble maker smile, "yep, sis!" Brother I had a brother? He reached his hand out and said, "Percy Jackson" I shock his hand, "Atlanta Samers or Jackson" I said. Wait he was Grover's friend, oh no Grover.
"Can you tell Grover sorry, I am so confused right now." Then Grover walked in right then scratching his butt, "it's alright you know it's ok I can deal" I felt bad about calling him a monster, but I still couldn't get use to his goat legs. I felt rude asking but, "what are you" he looked at me with a smile, "a satyr" I thought for a second, "isn't that a Greek myth?"
"Yep!"
"Then?..."
"Listen all the Greek myths are true, and you are a demigod a god and mortal mixed together."
I started to laugh then I realized no one else was. Was this a reality TV show or something? I looked at all there faces they looked really serious.
"Mom can you explain this now" Percy said pointing at me.
"Oh yah, ok so here we go," said my mom sitting on the couch were my feet ended. "Explaining what?"
"How you are my daughter."
"Ok. So where to start. When Percy was 5, your dad feel in love with me," "wait who is my dad?" "I can't tell you until you are claimed, any way I got pregnant during the summer, Percy really didn't notice so. That year he went to a boarding kindergarten. That's when I had you. I didn't want Percy to have a sibling so I put you up for adoption. My plan was when you turned twelve I was going to send a satyr to get you because most of the time monsters start attacking when you are twelve but I didn't realize it was going to be so early for you. So now here we are." Percy looked shocked. I didn't know how I looked but I was getting mad.
"Why did you give me up?"
"Because I didn't want you to have to watch your brother almost die or have to worry about him. I also didn't want Percy to have to worry about you getting killed." I didn't want to here her words I wanted to leave. I got up, "Grover can you take me to this camp place I don't want to be here right now."
He looks surprised and guilty, "Sally?" She looked sad, "yay let her go she has the right to be mad I just hope you forgive me." I started to follow Grover out the door when I realized Percy was following us.
"Why are you coming?" He looked surprised, "because I live there and I want to make up for the time I didn't know you," he made a one side smile, I guess I couldn't be mad at him he really didn't know. We got on taxi and drove to hill. On the way there I told Percy about my life when I started describing Kelli his face turned dark, "can I guess her name is Kelli?" I didn't know how he knew but, "yay? How did you know?" He looked dark, "he tried to kill me before more the once."
Yay see we are bonding. Then we got to the hill "welcome to Camp Half Blood, said Grover.
