Mysterious gift,

A god's spirit now with me,

Strange birthday surprise.

"Oh, we're starting with a haiku!" PJO Apollo exclaimed, grinning from ear to ear. Exasperated sighs were heard from all those who had to deal with him because of his antics.

A normal story like this one would start with her birth.

But then again, she was far from 'normal'.

When she was in her early stages of toddlerhood, memories of this world manifested themselves at such a speed it should have broken her mental health.

Somehow, through it all, she still was mentally stable.

No, what truly nearly cracked her was when she was ten and a hellhound attacked her, she survived because the water suddenly shot and stabbed him through the head, something that should be impossible according to the laws of physics.

Silence.

Utter silence.

Then the noise exploded.

"WHAT!"

"MEMORIES OF THIS WORLD!? DOES THAT MEAN YOU KNEW THE FUTURE!?"

"YOU KNEW THAT YOU WERE A DEMIGODESS WAY BEFORE YOU CAME TO CAMP!?"

"YOU KILLED A HELLHOUND WHEN YOU WERE 10!?"

Shocked exclamations echoed throughout the chamber. While RJO campers were having a crisis with this information, PJO campers sat in shock. That was totally not what they expected. The ROR Divines and mortals looked interested. It's not every day you get resurrected by the creator of the universe (And wasn't that a shock for all those who died during the Ragnarök, and honestly, others too), and being told you'd be reading about someone from another universe.

"You knew you were a demigodess before you entered the camp and didn't bother telling anyone?" RJO Zeus asked after everyone calmed down from the previous outburst.

Rhea didn't bother answering him which made RJO Zeus seeth in anger and ROR Zeus laugh seeing his pathetic excuse of a counterpart being ignored.

Honestly, the gravity of her situation hit her at that moment.

Her name is Rhea Thalassa Jackson, the daughter of Sally Jackson and the Greek Sea God Poseidon.

She should have seen this coming.

"So, you knew who your father was way before the claiming?" asked RJO Katie Gardner.

"Seen what coming?" asked RJO Will Solace.

"Yes, I knew who my father was and I'll probably be saying this again, stop asking questions that will be answered later on" Rhea replied.

"Happy birthday Rhea!" Sally smiled as she put the blue cake in front of her daughter. "Finally eleven!"
