Chapter 41.

"Wow." I say without any emotion when Thalia takes me inside cabin 2, Hera's cabin. It's painted white with gold decorations outside but inside it only has a statue of Hera and not much else. There are no bunks, because I shouldn't have been born, and it's cold.

"You can stay in my cabin, even though it's not much better. We have beds though, Now that a pair of Cyclopses helped me put them back from the tent, so I guess that's a good thing." She says

"Thanks." I smile at her.

"Just a warning though, pretty much every half blood hates Hera so be prepared to get hate."

"I'll just pretend I'm at school."

"Sounds like a plan."

"I'm going to take a shower, then I'll change into some real clothes. This dress is still wet and it's annoying me."

"Yeah, me too." She looks down at the hideous purple dress. "Do you know how many people have come up to me and asked me if halloween came early this year? When I saw Percy and Annabeth earlier, Percy started shaking because he was laughing so hard. And Reyna was nearly crying at breakfast when she saw what she was sitting next to."

"I want that dress back by the way. For April fools next year I'm going to steal all of Grace's clothes and hide them some where, then hang that up in her wardrobe."

"No, I have a better idea, meet me in my cabin in an hour." She says before leaving.

I ask Chiron for some clothes since I have no idea where to get any. Then when I get I to the shower I wash over my body at least three times. I wash my hair and change into a camp half blood tee and a pair of loose fitted jeans. I put my black boots back on too. I don't have a hair brush with me, so I run my fingers through my hair. And when I wipe away the condensation in the mirror, I see my old self again. My eyes are green-grey and my hair is shoulder length and wavy and my cheeks and nose are covered with freckles. I look much better. Because I combed my hair with my fingers, it has curled and it looks like beach waves, which suit me. So I tie it up in a pony tail.

It's been twenty five minutes since I saw Thalia so I go to see Grace because I want to talk. I knock on the door to cabin three and get blinded by the sun so I try not to look away when it opens. "You." A boy says. I can barely see him but I'm guessing it's Percy, Grace's brother.

"I'm looking for Grace," I explain.

"Why?"

"Because she's my sister. Why does it matter to you?"

"Well, it just so happens that she's my sister too, and I don't know who you are."

"Is she in there or not?" I ask.

"Grace, it's for you.' He say

"Oh, hi Katy. Come in." She says.

I walk in and see Grace holding out her hand horizontally in front of a ball of water suspended in mid air.

"Sit down. Percy's just teaching me how to use my powers."

"How are you doing?"

"Terrible." She giggles. "Watch this." She holds her hand so that it is vertical with her fingers pointing up. The ice begins to freeze but when Grace makes her hand horizontal again. It doesn't stop. The ice then cracks before shattering in on itself.

"I can't stop it from doing that." She sighs.

"So, about last night." I begin. And Grace plays with her hand. "Want to explain?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry. I thought you were a nosy god. Sorry about that by the way." Percy says.

"And the poison?" I uncross then recross my legs,

"We didn't poison you." Percy scowls.

"It's hot chocolate. Percy showed me how to heat water and I used my chocolate bar to make it hot chocolate. I didn't try to poison you. I swear it on the River Styx."

"Hang on, Which water did you use?" I ask.

"Sea water." She says confidently before face palming. "I used sea water."

"Oh, I'm sorry about acting like I did then." I rub my hands,

"No no, we were the stupid ones. I should've realised." Percy scratches the back of his neck. "And I was kind of an idiot today, too. I have a mortal baby sister and I'm super protective over her, and I'm like that with Grace too."

"You're a better sibling than we are. How many times did we argue this weekend." I laugh

"Not as much as Annabeth and I did on our first quest. I bet"

"Did you start yelling before she even walked into the room." Grace crosses her arms at me

"I never yelled at you." I say

"You stole clothes off a child's back."

"Exaggerating much." I snort and Grace smirks.

"Alright, I just came to talk." I stand up and walk towards the door backwards. "Have fun making ice bombs or whatever."

"Ok, see you." She calls and I close the door behind me.

I have no idea what to do now. So, I look around myself. I wander around the camp and see that everyone else is doing some thing.
