So, as it turns out. There was a car in the garage, just sitting there, still running. Has the driver ever learnt how to conserve fuel? Anyways, when I entered the back seat of the car, I really didn't pay much attention to the outside, although I thought I saw some weird advertising for "Fresh Local Strawberries!" If this car ended up going to a farm, I swear, I would of puked all over, well, everything. I have this thing with farms, just so you know.

As soon as I slowly and gently shut the door, (I may not of shut it exactly like that) the car jerked forwards and started racing down the street. I'm not driving expert, but I'm pretty sure 200km/h is way over the set speed limit- why would I care, though? It's called fun! Inside the car was all leather, sleek and modern. It had surround sound speakers, great ventalilation. Wait, this is starting to sound like a start to a car commercial. Anyway, as we continued down the road in our Ford, actually, I'm pretty sure we were a little above the road, more like a lot above the road. As if we were flying. And no, before you ask, I was not drunk. But, I may of been a little sick, because this situation is all impossible. But, really, I've barely witnessed the worse that would happen.
"Umm, hey! Driver Argus person," I blurted out. The car stopped, and I felt like I was plummeting to the ground. Than the driver got out of the car, and opened my door...

"Oh god!" (I may of chosen some harsher word choice.) I think I found out, quite frankly (ha ha ha!) That I have witnessed the worse thing, anyone from my group have ever seen. Staring back at me, was this man, he looked normal, except for one not-selling point. Covering his entire body, were hundreds, and hundreds of eyes. Speaking of eyes on the back of his head. Thank god he was wearing clothes! Argus rolled all of his eyes, I may of cringed. "Want food?" He asked, I nodded, still shaking from the car drive and my terribly rude jump scare. Argus turned, and walked away.

"What! Hay!" I protested. Argus' back eyes glared at me, he gestured for me to come with him. "Pfft, I knew you were leading me to the Mc.Donalds," *cue next eye role*. "Umm, Argus, dude," I started, "can you stop rolling your, er, eyes," he paused, stood there for a second and shook his head. "Yay!" I proclaimed.

As soon as we got our food; I ordered an Egg McMuffin and a blueberry muffin, and Argus ordered some soft serve ice cream. I had to say, an interesting breakfast food choice. I asked Argus "Is there a reason you don't talk much?" I took a large bite of my warm blueberry muffin. "Like, you didn't say much all the ride here, and I left my Harry Potter books at home, sitting in the car is kinda boring," Argus opened his mouth. Right there, on the centre of his tongue, was one eyeball. I grimaced. "Ouch!" I exclaimed. Argus' eyes started at me like, dude, what was that? Like seriously. I couldn't help but laugh, I don't know why, I just... did?

Argus exhaled sharply "You read the letter right?" he asked, "Oh right!" I screamed a little too enthusiastically. The restaurant got silent and stared at me. I sat there, I love embarrassing myself in front of people. "I may of said that a little too loud." There's that look again! Argus should really work on variety. Nonetheless, I grabbed the letter out of my pocket and continued reading:

... She's really a Greek goddess. You know those people that you learnt about in school, Posideon, Ares, Zeus; Yeah, your mom's Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and battle strategy. And your one of her daughters, her demigods. You enherit a lot of traits from her, as well as your grey eyes. Sorry I couldn't tell you this sooner, I geuss I was scared. But, you have to leave now! Since you know, monsters, things with powers beyond belief, will find you, try to kill you! So meet up with Argus as soon as possible!

p.s. Argus has eyes all over his body. Try not to offend him, he's a little you know.
LOVE: DAD

God, or should I say God's. Why me? I had good friends (well,) a good school and an overall good life! Now I have to constantly try to not be killed, I have to go to this stupid camp and forever more, hate my stupid life. When I get home, I have to have a serious chat with my dad. But, worst of all, I think I'm now officially afraid of eyes.

With an exasperated sigh. I stormed back to the strawberry mobile.
