Hey! This is just something I have been wanting to do for a while- a story about Percy Jackson's sister- Kay. I apologize in advance for any errors that I make. I won't be doing paragraphs, because I will just mess them up. I don't own the characters, except Kay, Caleb, Alexis, Ann and a few side characters. The book is in Kay's and Caleb's point of view. I hope you like it!

Kay's POV
Just my luck to get chased by a bull on my birthday. Why does something always have to go wrong on my birthday? Of all days! And not just any bull. The Minotaur. Great. Just fabulous. I had been living here for 3 years and it picked today to come after me. By here I mean a small apartment in Manhattan. Just when I started to have my first friend, a boy named Jay with some walking disorder. I should probably explain a little more. I ran away from my home in Georgia when I was 5 years old. I know it sounds crazy, but I did it to help my parents. My mom was the nicest person I knew. My step-dad was loving, but he probably didn't mind too much when I left. My step-sister, Allison, was everything I wanted to be. Kind, forgiving, patient, beautiful, popular and loving. She loved me even though I put her in danger. You see, bad things always happen to me. So I had to leave them. I didn't want them to get hurt. I have been on the run since. It hasn't been easy, but I can't go back. Ever. I had finally found a decently safe place and my first friend and it all got messed up on my birthday. It's July 21st just so you know. The day started out nice- hanging out at the shore with Jay, just talking. We were there for about an hour, when Jay suddenly sat up, alarmed. He told me to run and so I did. I figured it out pretty quick. I smelled it before I saw it. I'm just going to call it it, because I'm not really sure what it is. I won't go into detail, but I will tell you this much: it is UGLY. No exaggeration. If anything, I'm being nice. So there I was, running for my life, on my birthday. Suddenly I saw Jay running next to me, hold his crutches tightly to his chest. "You can run?!" I shout at him. "Less questions. More running" he pants. His shoe falls off and I almost trip in shock. "Where's your foot?!" I scream. He can't respond, because he is panting so hard. I shake my head in disbelief. Sadly, I've seen much weirder than someone with hooves for feet. I start to slow down from exhaustion and he yells, "Don't stop! We are almost there!" "Where?!" I respond. "The camp! The only place safe for you!" I have no clue what he is talking about, but I quicken up my pace. In the distance I see a large pine tree with something shinning in the branches. "Just get past the tree and you'll be safe!" Jay yelled at me. I heard something between a roar and a snort getting closer behind me. I ran past the tree just in time. I look back and see the Minotaur trying to get to me, but something was holding it back. "Thank the gods for the barrier," a voice behind me says. I turn around to see a boy about my age. He is tall, with curly blond hair and grey eyes. "Hi," he says, "I'm Caleb."
