I'm Alexus and I'm 15 years old. I realised I wasn't normal as long as I could remember. I always felt like I was always being followed. I used to tell my mom that but she would dismiss it saying that it was a crazy idea. Deep down I knew that she felt it too.
My brother 6 and his name is Jace. He's different than all the other kids his age he doesn't know it but I can feel it.
I had stayed late after school to finish classwork I didn't finish during class. I had a bad feeling in my stomach so I rushed with my work. I turned it in to my creepy math teacher. I swear she hated me she would give me glares from across the room every once in a while.
I decide to leave my backpack in my locker. As I walk outside. I see a storm approaching to the school. Lightning flashes across the sky. The wind picks up making my hair go crazy. I start running home not wanting to get caught in the rain. I was half way there when it starts to pour like crazy.
I'm at the end of my street when I see flames go up into the sky. I run home and my house is in flames.
"Jace! Mom!" I yell.
I do the most stupidest thing you could do when you see a house in flames. I run inside my house and I see Jace on the floor uncouncious. I pick him up and carry him outside. The firefighters come in just as I get Jace out. I put him on the sidewalk I was about to go in to find my mom but I get pulled back.
"You can't go in there. It's too dangerous." one of the firefighters says.
"But my mom is in there!" I yell. I struggle to get loose from his grip. When I do I sprint towards my house. The moment I start running the house explodes into bigger flames. I get thrown back by the force of it. It was too late my mom was gone. I start sobbing. I lost the only family I had left besides Jace. Idon't know how long I stayed there on the floor.
I finally look over at Jace. He was waking up. I run over to him and hug him. He starts crying.
"Where's mom?!" he asks.
I couldn't answer I just start crying even harder.
"No!" He yells.
We stay like that until the fire goes out. I don't know where everyone went. I pick up Jace and start walking over to what remained of our house. I see something shinny in the ashes. I walk over and I find a charm bracelet. It had Greek symbols as charms. I put it on. I never thought my mom had it before. I grab a charm that stands out the most and it caused a full gold sword to replace itself in my hand. I drop it in surprise. I carefully pick it up again examining it. I touch the same symbol that I had touched earlier and it changed back into a bracelet.
I look over at Jace and I see him picking up a picture it was partially burned it was a picture of mom, Jace, and me.
"Cmon Jace let's leave." I say.
"Leave where?" he asks.
"I dont know." I say. "Let's go to the school I left my backpack there I have some money there."
I grab his hand and start walking back to school. I enter school and I see my teacher Ms. Garcia.
She's glaring at me as usual. I head towards my locker which is a few steps forward. I open it and get my backpack out. I close it and we were about to walk towards the exit when I feel someone grab my arm. I lost grip on Jace. I turn around and I see a creature dressed the same as Ms.Garcia.
I scream and try to get away from her.
"Jace run outside !" He runs towards the exit with the backpack but waits for me.
"I will kill you slowly daughter of Zeus and then I'll kill him too." She snarls.
I almost passed out from the old grandma smell she had each time she opened her mouth.
"Used the sword!" yells Jace. I touch the charm and a full gold sword takes its place.
"Back off."I yell.
She pulls me forwards causing me to fall onto the floor. The force of it caused the air to get knocked out of me. She starts to advance towards Jace. I get up ignoring the pain and start running towards the old creature lady.
She turns around and her claws scratch my stomach. I feel pain afterwards but I ignore it. I bring my sword down to her heart. Or where her heart should be. She screams and bursts into golden dust.
"Alexus are you ok?" He asks.
"Yeah I'm fine." I say. But I was starting to feel dizzy. I look down at the cuts she left and it made it worse. Blood was coming out of the wounds. I start seeing black spots the last thing I see as I black out is someone walking towards us and Jace yelling. I couldn't make out any words.I wake up in a bed with a start. I frown, this isn't my bed I thought. Everything that happened earlier came back to me. I try to stand up but a hand grabs my arm.
"Be careful. " says a guy.
I turn around and I look at him. He had bright green eyes and black hair. He had an orange shirt that said Camp Half-Blood and a pair of dark blue jeans.
"Who are you?" I ask. My voice sounding weird.
"My name is John." He says.
"Where's Jace?" I ask.
"You mean the little boy? He's with Chiron. He's taking care of him don't worry." He says giving me a small smile.
"Where am I?" I ask.
"You are at Camp Half-Blood." He says.
