Diary of Margot

A surprising friendship

"You don't meet people by accident. There's always a reason. A lesson or a blessing"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My first week at camp was amazing, Luke, Annabeth and I were placed at Cabin 11, little did I know it will be my forever cabin. Annabeth didn't stay long as she was claimed by her mother, Athena. Luke and I were claimed just before by Hermes, which wasn't surprising as we met him only months ago (but this is another story). The two first year were kind of normal for me, only weird thing was when we saw a centaur in a prom dress, I never quite understood what happened that day. Chiron, our camp activity director, didn't allow me to train amongst my Cabin as in his eyes I was too young. But I still trained with Luke or alone when no one was around. That's how I catch the eyes of one of Ares' child, Clarisse. She was known has the camp bully , but I wasn't really scared of her , although she was almost 5 years older than I. One day when I was training Clarisse arrived in the arena, I thought she will tell Chiron and Mr. D , but she didn't.

*Flashback*

It was a sunny day at Camp half blood and seven years old Margot was training by herself in secret. Suddenly, someone walked out of the wood and Margot turned back with guilt thinking it was Chiron. But instead, she saw Clarisse La Rue, one of Ares' kids. Although everyone or almost was scared of Clarisse, Margot wasn't. 

- "What do you want, Clarisse" ask Margot

- "You're not scared of me, I like that. I don't want anything , but I was observing you and...

- Observing me why, so you could get me into trouble

- No, not really, I saw you fight with your brother. You're good for your age, Chiron wrong, you should be given an appropriate training. 

- What the point of all that 

- I would like to train you and hangout with you, no one will ever mock you or even dare to talk behind you, which in your case might be a good idea

- You're not wrong , but you hate everyone, why would you want to be my friend, I'm younger and everyone push me because I'm little...

- Maybe, but one day, you'll be the one pushing them and above all, you're not like the other, you're somehow different.

*End of Flashback*

That's how I became friend with the one and only, Clarisse La Rue. And I can tell she wasn't wrong when she said that people would stop messing with me if we were friends. She was my first actual friend at camp. People always tend to find it strange , but the Ares aren't the bullies, they are pretending at least not with me. Clarisse trained me for almost a year before Chiron found out and finally let me trained with the others, I was eight years old. Although, I grew up close to the Ares, I stayed very loyal to my family especially to my brothers, Luke and Chris as they were the one who knew how to manage my nightmare. As being a demigod has consequence like the recurring nightmare of the day I met my father.
