Hi. My name is Madison Richardson. And I'm a demigod. I know hard to believe, but I am one. A daughter of Hades to be precise. I'm also a descendant of Athena, meaning that someone on my mom's side is a child of Athena. So, anyway. I've just arrived at Camp Half-Blood 2 months ago and am really liking it here. The only reason I stay at camp would be because my mother finds my presence quite, you could say, disturbing. You see almost any time I got mad (which was a lot. I have anger issues), she would hear screams through the walls and one time bones started coming out of the kitchen floor. I mean it was only a matter of time before I was kicked out. I had just turned 16. I had apparently been putting not only her, but my brother in danger as well. My brother and mother are completely mortal, so you could consider me the freak of the family. I was called one all the time. Not only for a love of reading or my amazing grades, but the fact I seemed reclusive, yet successful. It was quite unusual for seemingly depressed people to excel at anything, much less school.

I had been going to Goode High. It was just another day in math. I was of course on the edge of sleeping, but who can blame me. The teacher was super boring. Not only that but she was always smiling this really creepy smile. I had been sitting next to my best friends Madeline, Nathalie and Percy. Yes Percy is a dude. Anyway, Ms. Kennedy was droning on and on over our algebra homework until 5.........4........3.......2.......1....THHIIIIINGGGGG!!!!!!!!!! Finally! The day was over! Just as my group of friends and I were about to get out of our seats and head to our lockers, she said, "Now just wait sweetie," In a sickly sweet voice " now sit back down." Okay, she freaked me out! Who could be so happy on a Monday morning without drinking coffee for the first 3 classes? This woman apparently. "Guys, just head on out. I'll meet you by the lockers or something. I'll be right out." I said. I got a few nods, except from Percy. He had a look that was both concerned and questioning, but eventually just went out. I think he had just walked around the corner. "Have I not turned in an assignment or something? Cause I had checked it yesterd..." I stopped mid-sentence because she wasn't even looking at me. She was facing the corner, shoulders shaking violently. It seemed she was either laughing or in pain.

She turned toward me slowly. Then in a nails-on-chalk-board screechy voice, she said "Why yes I am missing something from you, Miss Richardson. Something quite valuable to me." "And, uh, what might that be exactly?" I squeaked. "Why, it would be your mortal soul." At that moment she grew several feet in both height and, um, size if you know what I mean. She looked like an over fed, demon cow. Wait that's what she looked like before, well she looked worse. How, I couldn't tell you.

Her already gory nails painted a light pink grew out into long, sharp, black talons. Her normally kind, smiling face a demonic sneer with razor sharp teeth in its place. I jumped out of my chair and started screaming for anyone. Seriously, I'd rather have one of the purvey gym teachers locked in a room with me rather than this thing. Then someone finally heard my screams. They kicked down the door and yelled a battle cry. The voice sounded oddly familiar. Then an arc of bronze came down and stopped just in front of my face. Any closer and I'd have been a kid kabob. It wasn't until the sulfurous dust fell that I realized it was Percy in front of me. Of course I was grateful he had just saved my life, but I had other things on my mind like, "Explain. Now." And so he did. I had learned that all of the Greek myths have not only actually happened but are happening to this day.

So after we grabbed my other friends. We were off to camp Half-Blood where I met Connor. Along with Annabeth (Percy's girlfriend), Nico and the rest of the Seven. I even met Thalia. We became almost instant best friends. Madeline ended being a daughter of Iris and Nathalie is a daughter of Apollo, not very surprising. And now I just wait to see what else happens in my new crazy life as a Greek demigod.

Hey guys. I don't know why I'm starting this Percy Jackson Book. Well I do because I was searching through my laptop and found this and decided to upload it. If you guys want I can take requests. I'll update them as soon as I can if you want me to do that just let me know. I'll upload a forum on the next thing or you could DM if you want to tell me exactly how you want the one-shot to be and I'll give credit to the account at the beginning. Well, this is long. So I'll go. BYE!!!! :)
