(This recap is different from what actually happened in the last chapter of my other book so that I can open new possibilities and make this more interesting)
I had just finished explaining to Grover about Camp Half Blood, and the adventure I had gone on to find out who my real godly parent was, since I had been claimed by three - Athena, Apollo, and Poseidon - but with no luck.
I explained how on the quest we had lost Will and Nico, and Nico's resurrection without a memory (Grover then promised me they were both alive and well).
Finally, I explained Thalia and I 'flying' off a cliff, and waking up on the bus.
We were eating lunch at the archery range, at our own table in the large dining hall they had outside. It almost reminded me of the one at Camp Half Blood, except for the fact that it wasn't Greek-themed and there was no fire put to put the offerings into.
Grover shook his head and looked down at the table, then stood and started walking away. I knew he wanted me to follow him, and I was quick to oblige.
We stopped in front of the archery range, and Grover looked at me dead in the eyes, sending a chill up my spine.
"You know we need to get to Camp now, right? If what you're saying is true - that you were claimed by three gods in whatever the heck that false reality actually was - then that means--"
"There will be a lot more mythical monsters. I know, Grover. I just really hope you know the way to Camp from here." I looked at him desperately. The fact that I knew I was a demigod meant that the monsters could track my scent, seeing as I was claimed by multiple gods meant my scent was stronger and the monsters would come and kill me faster.
"I always know the way to Camp," Grover started shimmying out of his pants and I looked around to make sure no one was near enough to see his furry legs (though I'm sure he wouldn't be taking his pants off if there were). "But it's not close. We need transportation. Walking would take to long, and I don't have any weapons on me."
I thought for a moment and a moment only before I had the answer. "Do you have any idea how to hot-wire a bus?"

Grover informed me that we were half way to Camp, and so far we hadn't had any encounters.
I kinda felt bad now, because judging by the time the students on the archery trip would be leaving for school any moment, and they'd realize they didn't have a ride - or two of their students. Knowing my reputation, even if I was there with the bus-less group of kids, I'd be blamed for making a motorized hunk of metal disappear.
It was around four o'clock now, and night would come in three to four hours, so the sooner we got to CHB, the better.
I was at the wheel of the bus, Grover directing me on where to go. Though the path was mostly straight, since we were somewhere in the middle of farmland and soon we'd be near the city and at Camp.
"Make a right, Tera, at the end of this cornfield." Grover directed from the first seat behind the stairs in the school bus, which was to my right so I could see him.
I nodded, and followed his directions.
"Grover," I said. "Do you have any clue what that other reality" - that's what we had named it - "was? It wasn't a dream, it felt too real. But of course it couldn't be real, because then you wouldn't just be figuring out that I knew I was a demigod. I don't--"
"Shh." Grover put a finger to his lips. I furrowed my brows.
"Grover, I'm serious, I want to know. Why are you shushing--"
