(Amy And Chase Speaking)

        [I can't believe it Chase!]

        [Me neither!]

        [We are Demi-Gods!]

        [But lets tell them what happened before we go and tell them who our father really is]

        [Ok, lets continue then]

        After the person who came to our door knocked, we got dressed for the "Claiming".

        "I can't wait Chase! I mean we are about to find out who our God Father is!"

        Chase reply's, "I know me too, but I'm still mad that mom didn't tell us that we were Demi-Gods, or who our real father was."

        As we were talking, Randy walked onto stage and was carrying a microphone.

       Holding the microphone close to his mouth, he says, "Welcome new Demi-Gods to our camp! Today you are going to do various activities to find out who your God parent is. For Poseidon we have the water test. You must swim the entire lake and back while under the water and not stopping to rise up and get air, if you can accomplish that you are the son or daughter of Poseidon God of destruction, earthquakes, horses, hurricanes, oceans, seas, and storms. For Ares we have the battle test. You must fight against our children of Ares, who are trained and battle tested. If you can win the battle or get anywhere close to winning, then you are the son or daughter of Ares, God of war. For Hermes, you must deliver a secret message to different people, while facing many different obstacles along the way. If you can accomplish that then you are the son or daughter of Hermes, God of roads, speed, messengers, commerce, travel, thieves, merchants, athletes, mail delivers."

       Randy kept talking about the different Gods and Goddesses that we could try to get Claimed by.

        "I really hope we are the children of Poseidon, or maybe Zeus!" Chase says

        "I don't know, I mean Hermes sounds cool" I say uneasily

        "Are you ok?" 

        "Yea I'm fine, just scared. I mean what if we get a bad God like Hades"

        "We will be fine"

        Both me and Chase try the Poseidon course and don't do to well, as soon as I got in I almost drowned, and Chase got half way and almost drowned.

        We then tried the Ares course. I didn't do to well, I almost died from a single blow. Chase did a lot better though. He almost won, but then he got hit from behind by a club and he went down instantly.

        After a bit of doubt we were going to be children of any of the good Gods, we try the Zeus course. It involved us to survive a huge and dangerous thunder storm. I survived, but Chase didn't. I was the only person to survive. After that a glowing symbol of an Eagle appeared over my head. Everyone gasped.

        Randy walked over to me and said, "You are the daughter of Zeus!"

        "Oh my gosh, I am?!?"

        "Yes, he has claimed you as his. But he did not claim Chase"

        After hearing that, Chase said, "Yea, why wasn't I claimed?"

        "Maybe, and this is a big maybe, you aren't Zeus's son, but another God's."

        "That's impossible, I'm Amy's sister, I should be Zeus's son!"

        "I don't even know" Randy says

        Chase try's many other activities, trying to be claimed by ANY God, but no success. He then finally walks to the Hades course, the God of the Underworld. The course is a gigantic graveyard. You have to find the right grave with the undead servant to Hades, who also wields a holy gem only the children of Hades can see and find.

        "I don't know about this Chase, I mean what if you don't get claimed."

        "What if I do get claimed?"

        "Good luck Chase"

        "Thanks"

        He walks into the graveyard and as soon as he does, he starts to spaz out. 

        "Whats happening!?!" I shout

        "I don't know, I think its the power of Hades" Randy reply's

        All of a sudden I see Chase stop spazzing out and walk toward a grave.

        While he is walking, he says, "So bright and shiny!"

        When he gets to the grave, he starts to dig it up. When he gets to the bottom, the undead slave jumps up and screams, 'I've been found! You are the son of Hades!" After that he denigrates and drops the holy gem that only Chase could see. 

        "My God! Chase, your the son of Hades!" Randy shouts 

        Chase finally comes back to, and then he turns around and walks toward us. 

        "What just happened?" He asks

        "Look" As I say that I point above his head.

        Above his head was a glowing symbol of a Cerberus.

        "I've been claimed"

        "You've been claimed, by Hades"

        ( Chase, Amy Speaking )

        [I still can't believe that I was claimed by Hades]

        [I mean we're brother and sister. How do I have a different God Father?]

        [I don't know Chase, but hey, at least we were claimed right?]

        [Yea. but I was claimed by the wrong person]

        *Mic Cuts Off*
