Peter's POV

Ok, this is one of the weirdest things that has ever happened to me, and that says a lot because I've been to space. I was standing in a strawberry field, and then suddenly I am standing in an old wooden building surrounded by two kids, a man in a wheelchair, and shaggy middle-aged wearing a beach shirt, who I can feel is strangely powerful. For some reason though, I think I can trust these people.

"Alright," I say after the girl introduces her as Annabeth and the man as Mr. D, "can we get to the elephant in the room now. How did I get here? I was standing in a field of strawberries and suddenly, I'm in this room. I have seen some strange things as a superhero, but you all seem like nothing happened. I need an explanation."

"This boy is obviously clear-sighted if you can even bring him here at all. When someone like this shows up, there's always a reason. When Rachel came here after we found she was able to see through the mist, she became the next oracle, this boy must be important." Chiron told Mr. D.

"You do know I'm standing right here, don't you?" I told them after overhearing them talking about me. The two quickly realized their mistake a continued talking but in a different language this time.

After a short conversation between the two men and the teenagers a little bit, who I was surprised could talk fluently in this other language that I couldn't identify, they turned to me. Mr. D spoke. "Due to fate and you being able to see stuff, blah blah blah, we decided to tell you the whole truth. Just know, I didn't want to." The man groaned. "Annabeth, Penny, you take it from here. Show Spiderman around camp. Chiron has some important work to do, and I don't feel like it, so this is your job now."

Percy and Annabeth told me to come with them to the porch, so I followed them. Once I stepped outside, I couldn't believe that there was nothing there except strawberry fields earlier. It felt like a whole different world.

"Welcome to Camp Half-Blood," Percy said while waving his arm out in front of him as if showing off a new car. In front of me, I saw 12 massive cabins that all looked completely different, with many other, slightly smaller cabins behind and to the side of the main ones. To my left, I saw a courtyard, a volleyball pitch, a rock wall, and many other things in the distance that I couldn't make out.

"Peter?" Annabeth asked, "Do you believe in magic?" Annabeth seemed a bit on edge when talking to me.

"Of course I do. Everyone does. You know, I fought with Dr. Strange one time, who I'm guessing you don't know who that is either, but whatever, why?"

"Ok, this'll be easy then," Percy said proudly. "Long story short, the Greek gods are real, and this camp is full of their children."

"Percy!" Annabeth slapped him on the elbow.

"Hey, what was that for?"

"You gotta tell him slowly or otherwise he won't believe you."

"Hey Peter," Percy turned to me. "Do you believe me?"

"Yeah." Percy turned back to Annabeth and gave her a smug smile.

It's true that I immediately believed Percy about the Greek gods thing. Honestly, after all that I've seen, this wasn't the craziest thing, but it still probably was one of the weirdest. I suddenly end up in a camp full of children of gods, and I'm just ok with that. The craziest thing was how unfazed by this I was. What a crazy world.

"Wait, wait, wait. If this is a camp with children of Greek gods, then was that the real, original, Chiron!?"

"Yep, and Mr. D is Dionysius."
