Antonia the Daughter of Hades

Chapter 1

Let me introduce myself, my name is Antonia and I'm the daughter of Hades. I don't have a last name. My friends (they're not alive) have told me that I am unnaturally pale. I'm 16 years old and I've never gone outside of my father's realm until today. If you ever saw me you would probably think I'm goth or emo. I always wear a black shirt, black tank top, or a band t-shirt, black jeggings, black combat boots, black beanie, and a black jacket.

Right now I'm running for my life. My father's Furies are chasing me through Manhattan, most likely upon my his orders (then again they've always hated me so they might just want to kill me for no reason), and they were getting nearer. And then (being the huge klutz that I am) I tripped over a rock. I could see en evil gleam in their eyes as they caught up to me. I grabbed a rock and threw it at them but they easily dogged it. Megaera pinned me against a tree. She looked at me like she pitied me, then she said," There are things that are worse than death." As Alecto came near me with a murderous look on her face, 3 people came out of nowhere and choked Magaera until she loosened her grip on me. I twisted and freed myself. I turned to look at the people that had helped me and realized saw that they were my age. There was golden dust around them and Megaera had disappeared. I looked at their shirts and saw that they were wearing CHB shirts. I found them!!! Then they went after Tisiphone and left me by the tree. I guess they thought I was dead or something because of how pale I am. I heard a rustle and looked behind me. Alecto was flying towards me. I grabbed a sharp looking stick and stabbed her when she came near me. She whirled around and glared at me. She was glowing red, a sign of how mad she was. She grabbed a branch and turned it into a whip. Then she walked towards me. She halted in front of me and looked at me straight in the eye. She said,"Come with me or I will hurt you" I yelled,"Never! I hate tha-" I felt a burning sensation on my back and screamed. The last thing. I saw was her ugly smirk. And that's when everything went black.
