I've been in a orphanage longer in my life than I've had friends.
At the orphanage I was in everyone picked on me for having ADHD especially the older kids, not just verbally, they hit me, kicked me, slapped me, pulled my hair, really anything that could hurt me they would do it. It was so unfair it's not like I could choose to have stupid ADHD, cause I want to not be able to think straight or focus.
The thing is I really love swimming, the ocean, rain anything to do with water really and when I was younger I wanted to be a mermaid, but of course they picked on me extra for that. No one even believed me when I said I held my breath underwater for over an hour. The worst part is the counsellors there did absolutely nothing, they just let it happen.
So just before I turned 7 I left, ran away you could say. That's when I met my best friend (well only friend at the time), we ended up meeting 3 other 'people' on the way to this place one of them called a 'safe place for people like us'. At the time I didn't know what it meant and sometimes I wish I never did.
On the way to this 'safe place' something bad happened. The oldest girl in our group was killed defending us against a monster of some sort. It was horrible and I always blame myself, even though I was only just 7 I should have helped done something.
But now, nearly six years later we've moved on. But when I first came to "Camp Half Blood" as it's called, it was kind of a shock who I was claimed by. Right now Annabeth and I are still waiting on a quest, I'm still waiting to talk to my Dad and trying to not get killed before summer ends.
My name is Alexandra Jackson. This is my story.
