He showed me the way. I was in silence behind him. I was still in shock of what happened. If he just wanted to talk about my father, than why did he attack me.    "Slow down."  I said, I guess he forgot he broke my back.      "Sorry." He said sarcastically. Oh, I really want to kill him.    "So, I'm not done with my questions."    "Ugh, wait and ask them at camp."      "That's the thing, it's about you," I said."Why did you attack me, if you just wanted to talk about my father? And why are leading me to camp half blood so easily? I mean you didn't ask any questions about me."      " Which one should I answer first?"   " How about who you are?" I just realized I didn't even know his name.      " Eddie, like I already said son of Apollo."      " Okay, now why did you attack me?"     "Every demigod has there own way of being safe.If you're dangerous or not ,us demigods don't take chances. And I know you know that i'm right."    "Okay then. You went through things. Deaths." I said studying him.      " Two of my best friends died, and my mother passed away as well." He said up front.     "I'm sorry, my father died, as you know and my best friend died too."    "We have things in common."     "Let me take a guess. Your friends were demigods, and they died from the chances and risks of being one. And your mom, she helped you with a battle and died from a monster."         "How do you know?"    "Because, like you said we have things in common. My best friend died the same way, I think. And a parent will always put their child first, not that I have experienced it."      "Who was your friend?"       "Ummm....."      "If you don't want to talk about it, I understand."       "I actually do, I just never knew how he died."       " Oh, sorry. What was his name?"        "Luke Castellan" I said trying to hold back tears.        "Oh my, I'm so sorry. He was a hero."       "Wait you know what happened?"   "Yes, how can you not? It was in the titan war, with Kronos."      "Okay, that's all I know."          "I think it will be better if you find out at camp."   "No , I want to know."         " It's better that way. Camp can give you answers, all of them."         " Okay fine but I have one more question. You don't even know me, and you are leading me to camp, no questions even. Why?"      "Because like you, and most demigods I ran away too. And I know what you are going through"            "But unlike you and every demigod, do you see a saytr?  I've been finding my own way to survive. Don't even know who my godly parent is or my mortal parent."
