Story: My life may be a mess but nothing too deadly came my way until everything changed. The school that my mother went to is the school where I found my fatal flaw. Trust... I have a problem with not trusting the right person and trusting the wrong ones. So you're going to find this shocking but I'm a demigod. Half witch and half god. I'm not sure if my dad was Roman or Greek when I was born. I'll probably never know. My father is Hades and my mother is Elizabeth Prior. My mother died when I was just two. My father left before I was born. At the age of 4, I was adopted. My step family is the Macmillans. Eros, my stepfather, is the brother of Narcissa Molfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange. My stepfather...You know what nevermind. My stepsister, Luarana, was their "Angel". Luarna mistreated, and abused me. By the time I was six, I was learning the basics of fighting. At the age of 8, I ran away. After a year of living on my own, I was running low on what I needed. My stepfamily never put up missing person signs or reported a missing person report. Now that I was living on my own, I decided to unblock my eyes and thoughts from the mist. That was a mistake. A couple months before I turned eleven, oddly enough weird things started to happen. Like...Things starting to fly, the dead walking, and even small pits in the ground. A couple weeks later as I ran by a cemetery I found out that Eros had died. Thank the gods! Running into an alley not far from the Leaky Cauldron a boy named Damion came and saved me from the first monster I ever saw. Thanking him, I start walking away. Coughing he told me he'll stay with me for a bit. A few days later we got attacked by three monsters. Killing off the first two, Damion got stabbed in the back by the third.I tried to help but I couldn't move. Using his last breath he told me "There's a camp called "Camp Half Blood'' in New York. Find a hill with a palm tree and walk into the abandoned farm looking place...." After he said this Eros ghost was standing over Damion's dead body. Turning away I hear Eros laugh a treat. "Don't forget. I'll be back." I screamed "GO away!" then ran north of where I was at. Running, napping, and shadow traveling away from London I finally got to America. Running into an alley to nap. It was night by the time I stopped. "AH!" I screamed. Signing, I look at the girl in front of me. "Wait! You're not dead!?" "Why would I be dead?" She asked reasonably. "I don't know. What's your name?" I replied. "River. River Brooke." she replied. "Cool name. My name is Luna Dark Night. But I like to be called Stella Night. Dark is my middle name." I reply fast. Me and her continued to head to this "Camp Half Blood." A hill with golden sheep skin hanging from a tree. "Come. To me." I whispered to the shadows. The shadows are my friends. The longer I was alone the more I understood what I could do. Is this where Damion told me to go? Walking in with River on my trail, I hear the laughter and fighting noise of children, the clop of horses. A sharp hollow sound, as of a horse's hoof striking pavement, circled around us. FInally seeing the things I hear I smile as a young girl about a year older than me spots River. Laughing River turned to look where I was standing saying "Stella where did you go?" "What I'm right here?" I say tapping her shoulder and the shadows unwrapped me. Make me seeable. "Ah!" steamed the girl. Oops! "Hi! I'm Annabeth." the girl said. "Let's give y'all a tour." "Mind if I have someone else give me a tour alone?" I asked softly. "Sure. Will!" Annabeth called to a guy off in a crowd. "Come give one of them a tour." she added pointing towards me and River. "Ok!" the guy named Will said. "Hi!" I said as he pulled me off away from River. "Hi! As you heard I'm Will. Welcome to Camp Half Blood." "Thanks.."I replied sheepishly. "Can you sing?" he said turn to me in front of a cabin. "Oh! I should probably ask how old you are?" "Almost 13 and a half, why?' I replayed my past and shivered. "Oh, you're older than most newcomers." he said. "Anyway you didn't answer my other question." "Oh! I can but I don't sing in public." I answered. "Ok.." WIll said like he was sad. "FIne. I'll sing once but only in the woods." I gave in. "Yay!" He said. "Ok! Let's start the tour. THis is the Hermes cabin where you will be staying until you are claimed by your godly parent." After he showed me all the cabins, he led me to the dining hall, and the bathrooms. After walking to an area where it looks like a training vone I ran over and laughed "Cool, what type of weapons do you have here?" Will, shocked, replied "I don't know, ask one of the Ares kids." "HUH! Nevermind..." I say reliving that others are looking at me. "Can we go to the woods now?" Oh! Yah! Come." Will said fast walking off. Walking after him I look back at the training place one last time thinking This is just the beginning. I can't train anymore. I won't! I would but it hurts... After looking back to where he was I ask "Why are you looking at me like that?" "Do you have a bad background with weapons and training?" he answered. "No! Why would you say that?" I say nervously. "Ok. Well this is the woods where we do steal the flag. By the way you came on a bad day to day your cabin has to go up against the Athens, Ares cabins and more. Lucky me I'm on your team today." WIl said as I calmed down. Ok. "You wanted to hear me sing?" I asked. "Yah!" he said. Ok... "I'm going to sing a song my friend taught me. Is that ok?" "Yah." he answered. "I hold you close. I watch you pull away. You hurt but you don't trust. You hold your breath and make it worse." I started singing, forgetting anyone else was there. "I hold my breath and you break free. Secret that you keep from me. The truth that hinds within. I will try and try again. But it's too hard to be free with a song stuck inside of me. And hear the music of your shunking heart. It's like a deadly disease. But the chains are too deep for me to breathe. You chain me up inside it. And you don't know why I like it. Oh my love one day you'll see why. Why do these things you see a death blessing hit me as a note of love? So why do I sing your song again and again? To keep the truth hidden well or to find what it really means inside of my heart? Well I guess I will just have to wait and see. What it mean!" I finished the course snapping back as WIll clapped with his mouth on the ground. "Wow.. I thought you could sing. Not blow me away with a magical voice." Will said when he regained common sense. "Seriously. I don't want you talking about this in public, understood?" I say ending his teasing. "Fine.. But you're really good." he said to calm me down. "That's your tour. Come on, I'll drop you off at your cabin." Walking into my cabin everyone parted as I sat next to River who was packing her things up. "Hey, What are you doing?" I say in my normal voice. Freaking out my cabin mates but getting River's eyes to look up at me. "I got claimed during my tour. I have a brother on the bright side." she barely mumbled. "Good for you!" I said sitting down on my sleeping bag. "I'm going to the training spot once your setted in, may you please meet me there?" "Yah." River replied calmly. Walking out of the cabin and straight over to the training area I notice a couple cabins looking at me. Walking over to the table of weapons someone jumps out in front of me. Pulling their weapons out of their hands I work fast to keep the person from hurting me. Shaking my head as I began to force myself to calm down I said "Don't ever jump out in front of me, got it?" The person nodds by the time I relieve it's Annabeth. Laughing I tried to walk away and she asked "Did Will get you a weapon yet?" "Nope. Mind if I say I only need one. Maybe a dagger." I say as she pulls the box of daggers out from under a table. "Your choice. Choose wisely." she answers. Ok. So Damion gave me a dagger. Let's find one that looks like that. Oh. This is light. But it's not the same kind. You know what I'm taking it anyway. "May I see the swords please." I said as I slid the dagger into my sleth. "Sure." Annabeth said switching the daggers out for swords. I don't like the look of any of them and they are too heavy. "Thanks but I think I'll stick to the dagger. Not one of these feels right." I reply as I put the sword down. River and some guy walked up to me. "This is my brother Percy." River explains. "Want to train?" I mumble to River trying to get out of the area. "Sure." she says with a smile. Later that night, I got claimed and met my brother, Nico. I found out that Hades the god of the underworld was my father. Hah Take that Eros. Oh so off track. For the school year I decided to leave and River' foster family found her. It was a week before summer before I saw River again. Wow... She ran away again. Go figures. River is wearing ripped jeans and her camp shirt that has her fathers symbol on it. Laughing as monsters follow us until we end up running to another camp like "Camp Half Blood" called Camp Jupiter. Jupiter is the Roman name for Zeus. Wait why do I know that. GODS! This is confusing. Laughing as we walk in like nothing is new then I let people see me as the shadows slowly wrap around me. Finally making me invisible, A boy states "Um.. Are y'all heading to Camp Half Blood?" "Duh! But Monsters and I are very tired so we need to stop.." I Say as I appear behind him. "AHHH!" Screamed all the kids. I felt sick. Stepping out of the boundary I saw why. Laying on the ground was a small wolf almost dying grabbing some normal healing supplies from my bag as I walked up to it. Looking around for the one herb I didn't have, a young girl jumped out of the trees scaring the wolf. Having the shadows wrap around me very fastly, I ran up a tree and jumped down landing on the girl. Oops? Too guarded? Yah I hurt a girl. But she scared an innocent, almost dead animal. Well I still got to be nice. No, she scared a hurt animal. Gods I need to stop hurt others. "Oops." I say even though I'm smiling, "You should probably be careful around me. Especially since you scared a hurt animal." "Who's there? Come out of where you're hiding!" Allowing the shadows to melt away from me the girl jumps as I put my hand out towards the small wolf. Helping it heal to the best of my ability. I slowly pick it up. Hearing the campers mumble about who they think my godly parents are, I laugh and slowly bring the wolf with me inside before fainting. After waking up I walked up to the wolf who was still sleeping. Reliving my connection with the dead was stronger than my brother. Holding my breath as some boy walks in. "Hey, calm down." he said softly. "My name is Jason and I have no intention of hurting you." "Hm." I replied, looking out the window. "Wow." He said his breath stuck in his throat. Huh? I turned around looking at him for the first time since he walked in. Not bad looking but also not my type. "What?" I ask as I look up to his face. "You're really going to ask me what?" He answered back. Maybe. "Maybe. I don't know I'm always like this. No one complained until you came around." I replied shortly. "Oh! Too bad." the girl said as she walked in. "So you're not a Hermes or Apollo child then who are you? Cause the other girl won't talk until you do." "Names!" I say before they say anything else. "Oh! Jason is the guy that you don't seem to like. And I'm Ember. Remember me?" she replied. "Nope! Too many faces to remember the poor ones." I replied scarcasily. Trying to prove a point I add. "Also all voices sound the same to me." "Ok. Ember, let me please go back to dealing with our little guesses." "Who is a little rude." Ember said as she walked out. "Who? Me?" I ask as if I didn't know. River walked in and said "Just tell them your name and try to be friendly please. Just until we get back to Camp Half Blood." "Fine." I growled back. Shocked by the way I replied to River Jason said "Ok. Then may I ask for your names?" River smiled and replied with our names. As I continued to look out the window. Jason asked something shocking. He asked "Would you two like to be part time league please?" River, trying to answer for the both of us said '"Yes!" Weeks later, we finally got back to Camp Half Blood. On the capture the flag night again. Like last time we lost go figures. Most everyone at the camp had something 'wrong' with them. Take me for example, I have dyslexia, which make it very hard to read English. Take River as another, she has ADHD, ADDD, which are the same thing, which makes it hard to focus on things. I learned that reading in Greek and Latin made it easier to read.
