A camp half blood experience¹

Quest

I had been hanging out in the poseidon cabin since I got chosen.

I still wasn't sure why I got Aphrodite. I am not really that similar to her.

I had gotten an option of which cabin I wanted to be in.

I didn't know anyone in the Aphrodite cabin, so I went to the poseidon cabin.

I was the only one in their since Percy had been offered a quest to retrieve the master bolt that I believed belonged to Zeus.

Percy was picking his quest mates.

From what i'd heard, it was a 3 person quest, so he had to pick 2 people.

I knew he wouldn't pick me, I'm not even that strong. Not enough to go to the underworld and survive.

**later**

Percy gets back to the cabin.

I wasn't doing anything, so I looked toward the door.

"Who'd you choose?" I ask.

"You," he says.

I was confused

"I thought you could only choose 2 people?"

"They said I could choose you as 3 because Chiron hoped that this quest would help you figure out why you have two godly parents."

"Makes sense, so who else did you pick?"

"Grover and Annabeth!"

"Whos Annabeth?"

"The one from capture the flag"

Now I finally knew her name, Annabeth.

**later that day**

I was walking around camp, and I couldn't stop thinking about the two godly parents.

It seemed to freak everyone out here at camp.

Everything I would walk past a big group of people I would get talked about, I don't know if it's in a good way or not.

I mean, yes, my situation is a bit strange. Having two godly parents when most usually have one and being a daughter of the big three.

I learned that the children of the big three were called "forbidden children" or something like that.

I had been trying to learn more about greek mythology, or as much as I could learn before I went on this quest tomorrow.

**that night after dinner**

Percy and I were both back at our cabin, and we were both terrified for the quest. We only had one week, or we failed.

I was packing my stuff in a duffle bag. Percy was already asleep.

He said he would pack in the morning.

I looked to see if I had a way to contact my stepmother.

Even though I already have a parent or stepmother, I was happy to be claimed.

I was also pissed at them.

They didn't even bother to raise me.

My stepmother found me on the side of the road and took me in.

I tried not to think of that.

Once I finished packing, I went to bed, which was surprisingly easy speaking how tired I was.
