Chapter One:   Adonia's P.O.V

Did you really think I wanted to be a demigod?

Think again. Ever since my twelfth birthday, everything turned out horrible.

First my parents tell me I am adopted, then I am sent to this school and it is almost like I am some child how is a burden on people. That may be true, but I never wanted it said to my face.

My school's name is unknown, due to the fact I had just gotten here and someone told me I was a burden on them. Truth to be told I am very upset. The only people who I could ever care about told me that and I agree. They just made my low self- esteem lower.

And no one cares.Except this really cute guy, but there is something about him that makes me want to run away. But, I could never in my life trust or get close to someone again. I wouldn't be able to do it again. Not after what my parents did to me. They made me who I am. Made me cry myself to sleep at night, every night.

But, do they care, not at all. Not even a little bit. People wonder why I never wear shorts or tank tops or even short sleeves. Always, long sleeves and pants. But, this is because I don't trust anyone, not a soul after what happened. So I have a bit of a problem. I don't care what happens to me. I rather be dead than be alive at this moment. 

People always thought that I am positive and all of that stuff. But, no I'm not, not for a second. I pretend that I am happy with my life, and I want to continue to live for the rest of my life. No, I do not want to live. I rather die painfully. I cannot tell anyone, nor will I ever.

I am not afraid of death, I have been thinking of it for years, since I turned nine, I have been thinking these thoughts. But not once did I think that it would actually come true. 

My name? Adonia Marina Annelise Arcangela. My name actually means beautiful of the sea gracious and pledged to god high ranking angel. Do not say that my birth mother didn't have a sense of humor.  Even though I haven't meet her, I still know that she did, considering my name.

But, something happened, I just know it. And, I do not have a good feeling.

I guess, I have to tell you from the start, unfortunately. Well bits and pieces of my past of course, but starting from the beginning of my seventh school in eight years.

It was a very normal day starting off in the morning. We were going on a trip to the museum, I was excited to go, even if I did have dyslexia and ADHD. But, other than being not able to see English and being hyper- active, I was excited. Sometimes though, it was blessing having ADHD, because in gym, we had to run a lot. So that wasn't too bad. I was sitting by a really nice boy on the bus. Actually, he was the only one who didn't question my choice of wardrobe. And, I was thankful for that. His name was Grover Underwood, to be honest, I trust him enough to say that he is a friend, but not enough to tell him anything about my past. It would be horrible. So I keep my mouth shut and I deal with it. Simple and easy. The bus had gotten to our destination and I got out and stood by the teacher. She was filling in for our history class. I did not like her at all. It wasn't fair, that she picked on me for having dyslexia, and there were two others, twins in fact, that had it too. I was not pleased. So instead of saying anything, I was silent for the entire time. Not speaking to anyone, unless spoken to. The teacher asked me about Hades, and I answered her.

"Hades is the Greek God of the Underworld, and his wife is Persephone. He had opened up a hole in the earth and had taken her. Her mother, Demeter, had looked for a long time for her beloved daughter. Until she looked for the Underworld.But, Persephone could not leave the Underworld, for Hades tricked her into eating four pomegranate seeds. For four months of the year. Enraged  at Hades, Demeter withered every crop, and starved all the people, filling the Underworld. So, Hades allowed Persephone up on earth, during the summer months and down in the Underworld during the winter."

The teacher was not pleased at all. She was scowling at me, so I smiled sweetly at her. The teacher ignored me for the rest of the trip, so I had so time to myself. Which was a little unnerving, I mean she never left me alone for this much time. The class went outside for some lunch, and  I have a bad feeling for this lunch break. Maybe I would die. Who knows. And no one cares about me. Except Grover. Who really shouldn't. I went towards, the fill in teacher, and I felt unsafe. Why, who knew. Because, I sure don't. So, I walked up to her. Not knowing what else to do. I mean she needed me, so that was the most polite thing to do. I was not going to say, "Sorry, but I hate you so much that I can not stand to be in your slimy face. Bye," that would have been wonderful. NOT! So when she hit me. I was surprised. I was seriously thinking she had some kind of superhero power to read minds. Then, I was saying to myself, "no stupid, she doesn't have any super power. Are you dumb?" 

"I know you are hiding something. Now, tell me what it Is!" She screamed at me.

Surprised and hurt, I backed away from her. Not knowing what to do, I panicked, and screamed. Something I realized later would do me no good, unless someone heard me, but, by the look of it. It was unlikely for someone to hear me. That was when I started to cry softly, my fears were coming true. Someone at my school was going to attempt to make me suffer in pain. And, not kill me. Not like anyone would miss me. I was surprised when this new guy came in and saved me. He was cute. Blond hair, electric blue eyes, muscular, and a nice tan. Wow, I'm weird. No one would care. But, why would he save me? Probably to tease me himself.

"Are you okay? How hurt are you? You can tell me anything. Are you hurt?" The blond said to me. Wow. He is actually worried about me? This is so fake, or does he actually care about me. Oh well. I'm not taking a chance and telling him everything.

"I'm fine. I just fell down, and I started screaming. She just turned around to see what was going on. No, I'm not hurt. Just a little sore from my fall, that all. I swear."

I don't think he believed me. But, he went with it anyways. At least, I hope so. He nodded his head hesitantly. Yes! He dropped it! Good, now where is the teacher who hit me at, I wonder. Oh well, first I have to get this cute guy away from me, before I start spilling my life story to him.

"I'm Jason Grace, I'm new to this school. I arrived yesterday, and I had to come on this trip. So, I was wondering if you could show me around, the school. When we get back of course. That is, if you want to?" He said to me. 

"Hi Jason, I'm Adonia Marina Annelise Arcangela Clear-glass but I prefer either Adonia or Marina. Don't ask why my name is so long. My mom wanted my name with two Latin and two Greek names. So, it turned into this. I said to him. And, yes, I will show you around the school when we get back. Or when we have a free period together. How about Saturday?" I answered his last question.

Jason smiled at me and nodded his head. Agreeing to the arrangement, they went back outside, to eat their lunch.
