           We flew into the sky and shot forward with incredible speed. Lily looked like she wanted to vomit. Ms. Jones aka the other big bird looked at her and seemed to think about something.

           When we finally landed after what seemed like years, I saw a banner flying pulled by these chicken woman things. I wondered if they ever got chicken pox. ("Chicken Pox isn't caused by chickens!" -Isabelle. Not like you have a brain, smart ass.)

          It said: Camp Mythology. I wondered why it was called that. Lily finally spoke up. "Why is this place called Camp Mythology?" Lily asked.

          Ms. Jones sighed and explained to us that we were demigods. Apparently, a demigod is someone who one of their parents is a god. I am an Egyptian one, and Lily is a Greek one. The only problem is that I don't have a godly parent. I sighed and decided to believe her. Sure, why not? She also told us that this camp is for Greek, Roman and Egyptian demigods.

          "And Isabelle?" I asked. Ms. Jones sighed. "I'm sorry I lied to you earlier, but we needed to get to camp right away. It won't be easy to say, but Isabelle is dead. No reversing it. I'm sorry, kids..."

           "But, you-you lied to us!" I shouted. I was furious. How could our favorite teacher, Ms. Jones do that to us? Even Lily screamed, opening her mouth larger than I have ever seen. But I knew that she was right. Isabelle was dead, and there was no bringing her back.

            Amy broke down again, crying about how she just wanted to have a normal life with Charlie and her friends and us. Sometimes Amy is just too emotional you know.

           We entered the camp and hopped off from Justin's back. He did another 360 degrees spin in midair and turned back to a boy. Some curious kids eyed us as we walked. Lily hadn't stopped staring at Justin since we got on.

          The camp looked fascinating, honestly, even though I'm still angry at Ms. Jones. High Roman columns with Greek style carvings filled the mansion. There was a statue at the door, which represents Ptah. I guess they were geniuses, just like me, but I'm better. (Shut up, you know this is true) Ms. Jones called out and 3 teenage boys approached us. Boy #1 held out his hand. Boy #2 waved at us. Boy #3 smiled and nodded to Justin the bird.

            "Ho kiddos!" Ms. Jones clapped her hands together excitedly. "Here are your trainers. This tall boy over here (boy #1) is Nick. The short dude (boy #2) is Kevin. Last but not least, the random boy here (boy #3) is Will."

             "What will they teach us?" I asked.

              "Well, combat, for one. History and the languages you need to take, they are also good for you for survival. If you don't recognize one of the Gods on sight and is disrespectful to them, well, just watch out, okay?" Ms. Jones answered.

               Will laughed. A cute laugh. He said to us: "We need to test your powers. To see which pantheon you belong to and which parent(s) you have."

               Ms. Jones interrupted. "They need some sleep. Lots of things have happened today. They need rest in order to be the best tomorrow."

              Amy asked: "What do you mean by being the best?"

             Ms. Jones said, with a grin on her face: "You'll see. But one hint is that you'll be against each other."

             "What?" I asked, "Why will we be fighting against each other?"

            "To test your skills," Justin said.

             "Ok?" Lily asked.

            We followed our trainers and Ms. Jones to our rooms. We found out that we each have individual rooms. I gasped when I saw what the room was like.
