   Annabeth and I were walking along the beach together when it happened. Out of nowhere, something fell out of the sky and landed in the water. From what I saw, it had feathery black wings. I went up to the water and got the current to bring it up to the shore. This is going to be a big discovery.
When the current brought the identified object to the shore, I was speechless. A girl had fallen from the sky and into the water.
   "Annabeth, do you know what it is?" I ask her.
   "If I knew, I would've told you already. Seaweed brain." She says. Why does she always have to call me that? "I'll go get Chiron. He might know what it is." She says as she runs off. I knelt over the girl. Startled she wakes up. She sat bolt right up, knocking me in the head.
   "OWW!" I say as I rub my head.
   The girl turns and looks at me. It's almost as if she's studding me. Finally she speaks "Do you half-bloods always kneel over girls that wash up on the shore or am I the first?" She chuckles.
   "Don't get so flustered now."
   "I will make sure of it. Salty." She says with a smirk.
   "Salty?" I utter surprised. "And how am I salty?"
   "You seem like the type of guy that would be salty" she replies with a sarcastic tone.
   All of a sudden I hear footsteps behind me. I turn and see Annabeth standing behind me. Chiron not too far behind.
   "Chiron. Here's the girl who fell out of the sky." She said. Why does she sound so, so mad?
   "Hello Miss. Why don't we get you to the camps sick bay? Shall we?" Chiron says. He's such a nice Centaur.

   "I don't think I can stand." She's says "I think my legs. Annabeth walks over to her and gently puts her hand on the winged girl's leg. "Oww." She winced. 

   "Chiron. You might wanna give her a ride." I say. 

   "I agree Percy. Miss, hop on my back." Chiron says as his horse legs sink into the ground. Once Chiron got her to sick bay, we got her some ambrosia and nectar. 

   "So, what's your name?" Annabeth asks her. "Who's your godly parent? Do you know?"

   "Annabeth! Don't interrogate her! She just got say in the girls defense. 

   She just rolled her eyes. "Don't you mean 'whose my godly parents'?" The girl retorted, in a mocking voice. 

   "What do you mean?" Annabeth said, clearly puzzled and a bit offended. 

   "My name is Melonie. My dad is Hades, and my mum is Persephone." Melione said boldly. Annabeth and I look at each other. "Zeus took away my immortality. So now I'm just a mortal. A cockroach that can use weapons and fight." 

   "You wouldn't happen to know Nico di Angelo, Would you?" I ask. 

   "Yeah. I met him before his mum died. Never seen him since" Melione says. "Well, he's here. At camp half-blood." Annabeth says. As she finishes the sentence, the horn for dinner goes. 

   "Time for dinner. You can sit with Nico at the Hades table." I say. 

   "Ok. Let's go." Melione says, geting up.
