   As soon as I got past the border I knew I was safe.
  
But all I could think about was the girl that saved me and the note clutched in my hand. I ran to the big farm house.
 
I collapsed on the porch the exhaustion finally catching up with me from running for three days.

"Child, are you alright?" I look up and see a half-man half-horse.

"My mother... cyclops... girl with bow... note... saved me," I stuttered out.

Chiron froze," Girl with a bow you say?"

  "Yes."

  "Dionysus!!! We must call the demigods to the mess hall!!"

  A man with bloodshot eyes came out onto the porch. He sighed," Why now Chiron?"

"This girl she was saved by 'a girl with a bow'. Dionysus she back." Chiron said in one breath.

  Dionysus turned around quickly. "Call the campers now!!"

  The next thing I now I was standing at the front of a pavilion with Dionysus and Chiron.

  "This girl named..."

"Alexis Wood," I finished.

  This made Chiron and the whole room gasp.

  "She was saved by Mackenzie. Mackenzie is alive!!" Chiron announced.

  The whole pavilion cheered.

  Then gasped looking above my head.

  "All hail Alex Wood daughter of Zeus king of the gods, and lightning. Full sister of Mackenzie Wood!!"

  I looked up and shook my head," My sister is dead."

  "Your sister came here 3 years ago. She was greatly respected until someone spread a rumor saying she was with Kronos. She felt betrayed. She left camp but many kids have shown up saying that the were saved by 'a shadow! She came out of nowhere. But she saved me.' We didn't know it was her until a kid showed but 6 months ago saying she died saving him. He had a note in her hand saying 'My name is Mackenzie Wood. I protected this camp until the very end even if you betrayed me, I'll miss you.' Everyone was heartbroken, and still is." Chiron finished.

"Who was the guy?" Was the only thing I could ask.

"Me," a handsome tall blonde with sea green eyes stepped out.

"And you are?" I asked, my eyes narrowed.

"Ian Jackson, I'm son of Poseidon," He says.

I nod at him. He got her killed my mind says.

"I'm s-" he's cut off by someone saying.

"Ian, leave the girl alone," a tall messy black hair guy with the same eyes as Ian.

The crowd in the pavilion begins to disappear.

Except Ian.

"Want a Tour?" He asked

I quickly reminded myself she's alive, and that he wasn't the reason she's dead.

"Sure," I smiled.
