Suddenly, a tornado of water started spinning towards the Chimera behind her, shoving Estelle out of the way and leaving her dripping wet on the dirt road, as she watched the tornado of water cover the beast then recede back into the lake near the road, leaving just a shimmering puff of dust where the monster was. Estelle turned around to see Percy snacking on ambrosia.
"Percy....how did you do that?" Estelle questioned her big brother.
Percy ran over to his car to examine it. Strangely enough, it was undented.
"Immortal Ferrari, eh?" Percy laughed. "Thanks, Dad! I had no idea it was unable to be dented too!"
The lake seemed to whisper a "you're welcome" in response. Percy opened the car door of his blue Ferrari (custom gift from Posiedon) and motioned for Estelle to climb back into the backseat. Estelle checked the time on her modified Apple Watch as she buckled her seatbelt.
11:19 she said to herself, getting more and more nervous for her CHB orientation, which was at 12:00 pm.
It was almost as if Percy and Annabeth read her mind.
"Don't be nervous," Annabeth said, breaking the silence.
"Yeah, you can hang out with Adelpha. She is 8, and a 2 year difference is not that much. You guys should be friends," Percy said enthusiastically. Estelle rolled her eyes. Adelpha was okay, but Estelle was getting a little tired of her brother and his wife constantly pushing friendship on them. Why did she have to live Leo and Percy's dream for Estelle and Leo's daughter to be friends?
Estelle knew Adelpha was the only kid who would be there that she would know, so she kind of had to make friends with Adelpha, even if her mother, Calypso's stubbornness rubbed off on her and she was kind of annoying.Percy's Ferrari pulled up into a one car parking lot on the side of the road.
"Why are we stopped here?" Estelle asked as she got out, confused as to why they were stopped by a hill with a tree.
"This is Camp Half-Blood!" Percy said excitedly. His expression changed, probably realizing Estelle didn't understand the connection between the empty hill and the camp.
"Walk up to the tree and then you'll see," Annabeth reminded Estelle. "Goodbye Estelle! We will see you at the end of the summer."
"Bye lil sis!" Percy waved goodbye as he gave Estelle her bags and she began to walk up Half-Blood hill, finally reaching the tree. She took one more step and felt a ripple in the air. She saw tons of kids training, creating, practicing, everything she loved to do. She was home. She was at Camp Half-Blood.
