   So, during the plane ride, Thalia told me not to trust anyone. "Well, you can trust people, but if they know your name, or keep looking at you, do NOT trust them! " She explained to me. I felt secure knowing that someone could tell me things like this. She had quite some experience, too. Her biggest flaw, is that she does things without thought. A punk rock, tough, brave, thoughtless eighteen year old girl. You see, was born four years before Percy, Thalia, Annabeth, and Tyson. 

  After the plane landed, we got out, and got our luggage. Then We went inside to think of plans. "Okay, do we have money for a taxi or two?" I asked. "I have seven dollars and thirty-five cents."

  "Well, We're gonna need more than that, cause it's quite a ways. I have tree dollars." Annabeth emptied out her pockets. The others did too. 

  "Six dollars and two cents" Percy told them. Thalia had one dollar, Tyson had eight, Grover had eleven, Jessica had five. Then, the others looked around. Peyton only had twenty-five cents. Paige had two dollars, Molly had fifteen, Derek had nine. It wasn't enough. Just then, I remembered about something. "MY 'SAFE' MONEY!" The others looked at me like I was crazy. I dug into my bag while the others were sitting in silence, and I pulled out a small, black, plastic, box. "It's in here. I forgot about it." I said as I used my key to unlock it. On a yellow sticky note place on the box 'KEEP OUT! FOR EMERGENCIES ONLY!" Once I opened it, I pulled out twenty dollars from it. "How much is in there?" Percy asked. I responded "Over eighty bucks. I kept it in here, in case something goes wrong, like we need extra time in a motel. You get the point, right?" We added it together. Luckily, it was enough for one taxi van, and one regular taxi. The taxi drivers said that we couldn't all ride in a van, because it was prohibited by the law. The van carried seven; Percy, Annabeth, Jessica, me, Peyton, Tyson, and Paige. The regular taxi carried Grover, Thalia, Derek, and Molly. I just looked out the window silently the whole hour long ride.

   We got to a metal building. It was a mall. People were walking in and out. Some had children, most were teenager. A lot of them had tons of bags. "Why don't we go inside and maybe get a few things, so we don't look suspicious to anyone." Thalia suggested. She went to Hot Topic, go figure. I went there, too though.Me and Thalia talked about good music. She had never heard of Elegeion, which is a Gothic band. I played a song for her, and she loved it. We talked about things that annoyed us, fashions and all sorts of stuff.

   I didn't know where the others went until we met up to walk to the Camp Half-Blood. The boys went to a male clone store. Annabeth went to a gaming store to see some architectural stuff, like Minecraft swords. Paige, Jessica, and and Peyton went to clothing stores. Molly went to a car decor store. 

  We met up outside and walked to Half-blood hill. They whispered to me and my friends, about what it's look like. I already knew all of that stuff, though. It had a tree with a golden fleece protecting the boundaries. Monsters weren't able to get in, and the weather was approved by Dionysus, the camp director. He is also the son of Zeus, God of wine. He has restrictions though. Zeus punished him by sending him to the camp for a hundred years, and he can't make, or drink wine. 

  We got to half-blood hill. The new friends weren't sweaty at all. Me and all of my friends were ready to break down. Once I stepped into the sunlight, I felt much better, stronger, and powerful. "That's weird. This never happened before!" I said as the sweat all went away quickly. Mr.D (Dionysus), and Chiron came to greet us. Chiron was a Centaur, like in the book. "Oh, my gods! You have already found your parent! Unbelievable!" He exclaimed. I got exited. The others all crossed their fingers. "Really? Who is it? Mother? Father?" I asked anxiously.

   "Father. You are thee daughter of Apollo. Congratulations." He told me. 

  "Okay, so now what do we do?"
