I woke up gasping for breath and with tears in my eyes. I wiped my tears and just sat there thinking about the dream, the vision, it always seemed to unnerve me. It had almost been an year since I started having these visions; always the same so I decided not to waste my time on this and get ready, I had alot of work to do.

I got ready, picked up my pen and walked to the Big House. Chiron had assigned me to greet the new campers and show them around the camp. A new camper had passed the camp boundries around midnight and immediately collasped. I was told to meet her in the morning at the Big House. As I reached the Big House, I was greeted by Olivia Davis, daughter of Athena. She had was 16 year old and had brown hair.

"The newbie had received orientation is ready for the tour!".
"Yeah! And a very good morning to you too!"
I said as i made my way towards the new camper.

"And I expect you are ready for tonights game! The Ares will never know what hit'em" called Olivia as I reached the new camper.

"Hi! I'm Estelle. Estelle Blofis. Daughter of Poseidon. Nice to meet you" I said as I greeted the girl.
"Hey! I'm Alice Cooper. Daughter of i don't know who. Nice to meet you tho!" She replied gloomily.

Alice had green hair and green eyes but she did not seem like a fighter.

"Hey! Don't worry! You will get settled here in no time and we are all part of a family and family takes care of each other. So you have taken the orientation so you must know about gods. Do you have any questions?" I asked her.
"No. I think I get it" Alice replied.
"Oh! Wonderful! Now we can get going with the tour. Come on you are gonna love the camp" I said.

~time skip~

I had shown Alice around the camp and she had already made a few friends with the Demeter kids, so I left her with them and made my way to the Half-Blood Hill. I had asked a friend to meet me there and I hoped he had brought information with him.
I sat there beside the dragon Ignis, who was guarding the Fleece, he had been a gift from the gods after the previous one, Pelus, had gone rogue. But that had been before I had come to camp and that was 16 years ago that of yesterday. The Hill gave a great view of the Camp and even though I had lived my whole life at the camp, since the day I was born, I was still stunned by the beauty and design of the camp, designed by Annabeth Chase; daughter of Athena, Architect of Olympus and another mystery.

I was just sitting there thinking about the dream when I saw Harris Malik make his way up the Hill. Harris Malik was the son of Aphrodite and yes, Zayn Malik. He was a powerful demigod and had his way with words.
He quickened his pace when he saw me and was panting as he reached me.

"Hey harris! How you doing?" I asked him while motioning him to sit down beside me.
"I swear one day you are gonna get me killed!" He said as he sat down.
"So you got the information?" I asked him.
"Yeah! And I had to charmspeak Nico to get it out of him and if he finds out, I'm dead!." He said as he took something out of his bag. It was the minotaur horn I had given him.

"Well, it seems that a demigod had killed the minotaur and taken the horn as a trophy" he said as he handed me the horn.
"Yeah! And was that demigod Percy Jackson?" I asked, not taking my eyes off the horn.
" Hey! How did you know?" He asked accusing me.
"Yeah well anything suspicious happens and you tell me that it does not trace back to Percy Jackson! I'll pass!" I said as I twisted the horn in my hand.
"Yeah, you are right but you are not gonna beleive this! He killed the minotaur without any weapon, armour or any kind of training! The dude didn't even knew that he was a demigod! And he killed a freaking minotaur! That has to be the most badass think ever!" Harris exclaimed.

"Okay. Now you are just messing with me. That can't be true. Look I'm the most powerful demigod right now and even I will have trouble defeating a minotaur". I said,

"Yeah, but he did it when he was twelve." Said Harris, grinning.
"Okay. Now it's too much. You are just messing with me!" I said

"But he is not!" Hissed Olivia, causing me and Harris to jump with shock.
"Oh jeez! Olivia! I nearly had a heart failure!" Screamed Harris.

"So what did you find out?" I asked her, ignoring Harris.

Olivia was my other friend and she was assigned to get the attic clean and if there was any place that would be the house of secrets, I would bet riptide that it was the attic.

"Harris is right!" Olivia exclaimed,"Apparently this Percy Jackson was the most talented swordsman on camp and..."

"And what?" I asked her.

"You are not gonna beleive me any way so let's leave it." She said as she sat down beside me.

"Oh c'mon! Tell me already!" I said, classic Olivia, building up the drama.

"Well....He apparently defeated Ares in a duel" she said,"And he did this when he was twelve and without any training."

"Okay. This is too much. Last time you guys told me that he had defeated the  Titans and now this! I can't take this." I said, exhausted and aggravated.

"I know this is alot to take in but we are telling the truth and as you cannot be going around asking about Percy Jackson, you have to trust us." Said Harris, trying to calm me.

"Yeah. Don't worry we will find out about this Percy Jackson and avenge Apollo!" Said Olivia with vengeance in her eyes.

I nodded. I was also very eager to meet this Percy Jackson and even more eager to find out how he had killed Apollo.
