"Ceto. It's time to get up." I hear Sister Urania call into my room as she walks by. I groan loudly into my pillow before pulling my self out of the tangled sheets. I throw on my school uniform and hurry down the stairs. Sister Themis was waiting for me when I got to the dining room.
"Ceto, you are late, again, as usually I see." She says shaking her head. "Îmi pare rău, Themis Sister." I say quietly. The Sister looks at me. "Go eat. And English, please Ceto." I look apologetically at her before running to join the other girls.
"Ceto, there you are. I was worried Sister Hydra was going to get you again." Apolloina whispers to me after I sit down. I shake my head and whisper back. " It was Sister Themis, luckily."
I smile faintly. Remembering the day that I first came to Greece. I was in rags without any money or family. And Sister Themis took me in and gave me a home.
I look up when I hear a bell ring. Sister Hydra trying to get everyone's attention. "As you all know, today the senior class is going into town to help with the festival. But before we go we must assign several girls with a Sister. Sister Themis will be picking her group first then Sister Urania, and so on." She shouts before allowing Sister Themis up.
" I will be taking Apolloina, Eos, Zephyr, Ceto,......" after I hear my name I drift into my own thoughts until Apolloina taps me on the arm. "Huh?" I look up to see the girls that were just called get up and leave. So I get up and hurry after them.
Once we make it out to the town square Apolloina grabs my arm and pulls me to the food stand. "It smells so good. Doesn't it Ceto? I want to get some before we start working." She says to me.
"I think that we should wait until we have earned it." Zephyr told her come up behind from behind us.

I could still feel the old man's eyes on me even though it's been days since I left that creep old mansion. I look around to see I'm in Athens, Greece. 'They're here." I think as the cold feeling I got entering Athens subsides slowly.
As. Continue around the town I see a little festival in the town square. There are a group of girls about a year younger then I am. 'About 16'. I continue walking until I hear a scream.
I bolt over to where it came from and find a group of girls from earlier standing in front of a statue. "Ceto stay still someone's coming to help." One of the girls shout up at the statue. Then I look up and see a girl hanging onto the statues head.
"Grabă. I can't hold on much longer Apolloina." The girl, Ceto, calls down. I run over to the group. "What happened?" I ask one of the girls. She looks at me like I am Zeus. "Help her please." She says quickly "I will" I find myself saying. Suddenly I hear a crack and part of the statue falls.
The girl Ceto, slips down a little now that her support is gone. "Apolloina!" She screams before losing her balance and comes tumbling down. I run quickly before she hits the ground and catch her. As soon as she hits my arms I fall backwards and slam my head on the ground. I hear screaming but I cant keep my eyes open so the darkness takes me.
Stela pov.
I hear whispering prayers and open my eyes to a dim room. I try to sit up but Sister Themis stops me. "Ceto, thank the gods your alive. But you are in no condition to be moving around. You broke you ankle and hit your head badly." She tells me quietly.
I shale my head. "But I feel fine. My ankle aches a little but otherwise I'm fine." I tell her. "How could I have broken my ankle? It does feel broken, I can move it." Sister Themis looked at me like i am a monster. "Impossible, it can't be true." She says to her self. "You really are Dracula's Granddaughter"
