*Phoenix P.O.V*

As I ran trough a pitch Black Forest guided only by the small flame of my lighter and driven away by the sound of the 6 insane teens that we're hunting me. Running trough the thick under brush I tripped over a stray tree root causing me to tear my black skinny jeans, scrape my right cheek and drop my lighter. The running foot steps grew louder as I scrambled for my lighter. "THERE SHE IS!" Someone 15ft away yelled. Then suddenly there was a burning pain in my left thigh. I bit back my scream, found my lighter and ran. ( I know I should've mentioned this before but I have a leather jacket that I keep 12 throwing knives in.). A large tree soon came into view, 'I hope I have enough time to climb this' I thought to myself. The footsteps grew louder I spun around and about 10 feet away an archer held a drawn bow aimed in my direction. I pressed my back to the tree trunk. My mind was racing but my main thought was ' I wish I was some where safe.'. Then I felt like I was being absorbed into the shadow cast by the large oak. The next thing I felt was a cold breeze. Soon I was standing in the middle of a 'u' formed by cabins. Seconds after I felt like a sword was slicing my head in half. I clutched my head and fell to my knees. Then, everything started turning black. I hit the grass and that was the last thing I remember.

*Percy P.O.V*

As I strolled back to my cabin from the campfire sing-along a figure appeared in the center of the cabins and collapsed. Not knowing who or what it was I ran over and found a unconscious girl that reminded me of Nico di Angelo. Except she had a black leather jacket, black skinny jeans, converse sneakers that came up to her knees and four piercings in each ear. She was extremely skinny and had jet black hair. As soon as I saw the arrow lodged in her thigh I instantly began to panic. I got up and found Chiron as quickly as I could. After I told him about the girl I found she was rushed to the infirmary. "She sort of just came from the shadows," I told Chiron

"Alas. Another child of Hades," he replied.

"Is Nico here?" I asked hurriedly as healers from the Apollo cabin removed the arrow from her leg.

"I believe so. I think I saw him nearing the forest after the campfire," reported Chiron.

I dashed to the forest screaming Nico's name. At the edge of the forest he emerged looking slightly annoyed."WHAT DO YOU WANT JACKSON!?" He screamed.

" GET TO THE INFIRMARY! LIKE, NOW!" I screamed back. Even though he looked extremely confused, he nodded and disappeared behind a tree. I sprinted back to Chiron who had Nico standing beside him. As I rocketed closer I began to hear their conversation.

"Soo... I have another sister?" Nico asked.

"Well she is a daughter of Hades," Chiron said in return.

"As long as she doesn't join the hunters and get herself killed like Bianca," Nico hesitated to say Bianca's name.

A healer hurriedly approached Chiron as I slowed to a stop.( I think the healer's name was Chris.) He handed the arrow to Chiron and he examined the purple feathers and violet cloth tied to the shaft. "Percy, Nico, get Jason, hazel and Frank." Chiron said with worry in his voice. Nico and I rushed off to get Jason, an ex roman preator. As soon as we found him sitting next to Thalia's tree we sent him to retrieve Hazel then go to the infirmary. He nodded and scrambled down half-blood hill. We fetched Frank and returned to the infirmary. When we met the others the mystery girl seemed to be murmuring.

"May I see the arrow?"Jason asked, as healers finished mending the mystery girls puncture wound.

Chiron handed him the knife sharp arrow.

"It's definitely a Roman legion arrow," Frank said looking over Jason's shoulder.

As they spoke my eyes drifted to the mystery girl and her eyes snapped open. Not realizing where she was she attempted to sit up but instantly moaned and grabbed her wounded leg. I poked Nico in the side and pointed in her direction. Nico then quickly said "Uhhhh... Chiron should we get the healers back in here?I think something might be wrong," gesturing to his new found sibling.
