I groaned and opened my eyes to see a figure handing me a glass cup filled with some kind of drink.

"Here, drink a little." The girl said as she handed me the cup." I'm Olivia Chase."

I sat up and began to gulp down the whole drink

"I'm Jonathan Keith but call me John." I said as I put down the glass." Where am I?" 

"Camp Half Blood." She replied” In the infirmary."

"Where's Ana?" I asked worried.

"You mean the blonde girl? She's right over there." She responded.

I released a sigh of relief as I stood up from my bed and walked to the tent opening. I stepped out onto a field of grass. There were people practicing archery, one of them looked like my cousin, mufti, but it couldn't be him.

"Beautiful isn't it?" Olivia asked.

"Yeah." I replied, nodding.

"Well, welcome to camp half blood." Olivia said. "Come on we gotta go to the big house."

"Big house?" I queried.

"You'll see." She replied as she pulled me by my hand towards an enormous house.

The house was turquoise with green, grape vines zigzagging around it. As I walked closer, I could hear voices inside the house.

"I think he's a son of Hephaestus after what happened.........." One said

"He might be a son of Hestia........." Another said

"We'll have to wait till the bonfire but keep an eye on.........."

"Come on" She said, pushing me to the entrance. The door was almost twice my size. Its brown acacia wood was so polished, it looked brand new. I pushed the door open and saw a bored-looking man that sat next to a half man half horse thing. A centaur.

"I'm Chiron." The Centaur said, sticking out a hand.

I shook it, grateful it wasn't a hoof. He was a muscular man with bushy hair and long hair from waist up but below that, he was a white stallion. His brown eyes looked old but his black hair didn’t' have a streak of grey hair.

"Dionysus." The man said agitated “Call me Mr. D if you don't want to be turned into a chipmunk and run over with my suv."

"Olivia, could you show him around camp?" Chiron asked firmly.

The man sitting opposite him was wearing a Hawaiian shirt that barely covered his round stomach and his brown shorts revealed his hairy legs. He had a clean-shaven head that flattered the fluorescent lights and the crazy look in his eyes made him look like a lazy, powerful drunkard.

"C'mon let's go see the cabins." Olivia said as she skipped out the door.

I glanced back at the peculiar sight. I noticed a set of stairs that snaked upwards to what I thought was an attic. There were intricate designs of a throne room etched into the maroon wall. I turned and walked out.

"Could we first check the infirmary to see if Ana's awake?" I plead

"Yeah, sure. We can check on your girlfriend." She said as we started walking to the infirmary.

"My what?! W-w-we're not a couple". I stammered.

"Ooh, right." She dragged with a devious face.

"No seriously. I don't think she even thinks of me as a friend after what happened." I whispered.

I pushed past the curtain at the entrance of the tent and was immediately tackled into a hug. At first, I was shocked but then I hugged back.
