I'm Special

Little Bow Beep

Chapter 9(Alex's POV)
I woke up feeling like shit. And waking up feeling like shit isn't a good sign. There were also other signals that today is going to go wrong.

1. I woke up at 4 in the morning, on a Saturday!!

2. I woke up feeling like shit, like I previously said.

3. I was early to breakfast.

After about two hours reading the Greek bible, I went to the bathroom for my morning routine. After I was done, I silently followed my cabin mates to our table. As I eat, Chiron and a red pudgy man sit at the front of the gathering. All conversation stops as they sit.

I jab Connor's side, gaining his attention, "Who's that?" Connor shushes me at my question, glancing back at the pudgy man. I frown deciding to ask later.
The man then decides to speak, "So apparently, we haven't had announcement due to injured campers and whatnot. We have a new camper also, another one of the demons have joined us. Come forward, Amy Blaire."

Who the fuck is Amy Blaire?!!

"Are you deaf?" He says looking at me. Confused, I point at myself.
"My name isn't Amy Blaire, it's Alexander Dare."
"Does it look like I care?" He says, unfazed.
I growl loud, annoyed by his attitude. He raises an eyebrow at my growl, "Did you just growl at me?"
I don't say anything, but I continue growling. I glare at him while growling and he glares back. I see a purple fire in his eyes and picture, or rather flash of people running mad, drunk cannibals and half dolphins. But that doesn't scare me, I keep growling. Looks of horror and curiosity are directed at me.

"Look!! Above her head!" Someone yells. I look just in time to find a large glowing green trident on the left side and a pink bow and pointed heart arrow on the right. The place erupted with murmurs and Chiron signals me to follow him, so I do. We enter the Big House and we both sit and after a while Grover, who I have come to realize is a satyr, joins us.

"Get the weapon." Chiron orders Grover. Grover nods and goes upstairs to who knows where.

Before u can ask questions like, 'Who is that pudgy man', or 'What was that above my head', or the very common 'Am I cursed', Chiron starts speaking.

"You have just been claimed. This is a very serious matter. You are different from the rest, child. From my knowledge, you should be a child of Poseidon and a descendant of Eros the god of love. This makes you more powerful and dangerous seeing you are more god than human. You will attract more monsters, but that's not a problem. Although, I am not exactly sure, but it's most likely."
I nod unsure if what to say and just then Grover comes out with a blue silk bow.
"Only you can harness this weapon. Use it wisely." He says.
"Am I supposed to play little bow beep with this? Is this some joke?"
"You have to figure out the pattern, so off you go."

They shove me outside leaving me with a useless bow. I clip it into my hair and wait there for what seems like hours staring into nothing when Nico comes.

"What are you doing here? You should be in the Poseidon cabin."
I nod following him to the cabin. I look around and try to memorize the way so I won't need help moving around all the time.
"Lucy would be here to help you get need clothes. If you need anything else you could ask her." He leaves me at the doorstep of the Poseidon cabin after explaining a few other things. I enter the cabin and find it empty. I go towards the bed closest to the window, because it has a perfect view of the sea. I lay on my bed bored out of my mind, thinking of activities I can join. I'm interested in sword fighting and archery, but they only hold on weekdays.

I look around and frown.

This place is so bland.

I smile when I realise how I am apparently going to spend the rest of my day doing. The camp has a shop. So if only I can locate..... Found it!!

I run towards it excited to get a new paint set. I stumble to a stop when I realise I have to pay.

That's not fair, I'm broke.

I sneak towards the entrance of the store making sure no one sees me. I go through crawling on my hand and knees until I am right under the paint set and out of sight.

I then slowly inch my hands closer to the set.
"What, may I ask, are you doing?"

Abort Mission!!

"Umm...I was just umm..." I look around trying to find an excuse,but I come out empty.
"You were trying to steal the paint set, weren't you?" He grins at me pulling me up. But even after pulling me up he still holds my hand. I tug my hand away forcing a smile on my face.

"Yes, I was. But I didn't have any money soo..."
He nods, "So you decide to steal it." I shrug.
"The name's Blake by the way. Yours?"
"Alex."
"The newbie?"
"Apparently."
I stand there awkwardly rubbing my arms, then the paint set is shoved towards me. I take it.
"Really?" I ask him. He nods, blushing and I give him a hug thanking him multiple times before I run of chuckling.

Sucker
