The Champion {Book One} (Percy Jackson Fanfiction)

The New Camper

Cammy's P.o.V.

It felt as if I was only in shock for a few seconds, but I found myself back at the infirmary. I groaned, and threw the covers off. My armor, shirt, and skirt had been removed, revealing only my under clothes. The thought disturbed me so much as I blushed.

"Gods of Olympus, I can't even get through a stupid game of Capture the flag," I muttered miserably.

I peeked through the windows, noticing some campers returning from their, probably better than blacking out, friendly game. "Dam, I really felt like beating up Connor today."

"Really?" Someone said.

"Yeah, I usually do." I replied.

Waiiiiit.

"GAH!" I screamed. I scrambled in my bed and covered myself.

"Sorry, Princess," Connor blushed.

"CONNOR FRICKEN STOLL, WHAT IN ZEUS'S NAME?! GET THE HADES OUT OF HERE, OR ELSE I WILL FEED YOU TO MRS. O'LEARY!!"

"B-but I'm your boyfr-"

"I DON'T FRICKEN CARE, DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME!!"

I wrapped the blanket around me and steered him out the door. "Don't let the door slam in your face while your at it!"

"You wouldn't do it you-"

WACK.

And with that, I slid down in sitting position, hugging my legs. "Stupid, moron," I sighed and put my head down. "These people will be the death of me."

************

After the winning team; Poseidon, Athena, Apollo (well that sucks, my team won without me playing), Aphrodite, Hades, and Hephaestus stopped bragging, we all attended the camp fire.

My cabin sang some traditional songs, except me. Rachel's touch kept freaking me out. What had I seen? A vision? Who or what was threatening me? Why me? All these questions were left unanswered.

Suddenly there was a rustle in the woods. Everyone stopped in their tracks, my siblings having their mouths open in mid-chorus. All the campers started whispering:

"What was that!?"

"I-I don't know...."

"A monster?!"

"Maybe...."

"Has anyone seen my replica of the Valdezinator?!"

Valdezinator? Whatever, Leo. Anyways, as we were waiting for uglies to come busting through, I got a strange feeling, a sense.

"Nevermind, I found it."

"Why hasn't the thing shown itself?!"

"Maybe it sees it's outnumbered?"

"Probably...."

"Or maybe it senses my awesomeness!" There were a few groans and muffled laughs.

"Sit down and shut up already, Valdez!"

"The respect I get for saving your butts....," he muttered and did so.

We waited for a few moments longer. Silence.

"I-Is it still here?"

"It must have left, no monster could be that stealthy and still be watching us."

"No monster....," I muttered. "Who said it was a monster?" All eyes turned to me. Then without thinking, "It's a new demigod!!"

As if on cue, a figure cried out in alarm as it stumbled out of the woods. Well now we knew it was human at least. The person face planted in the soil and went numb. It groaned. Silence once more.

"OH MY GODS, IS THE GRASS OK?!" Laughter filled the air.

Then the familiar sound of hooves pounded the floor. "Silence, children!" Chiron said. "Miss Nixon, how did you-"

"Bryce J-Jones." I mumbled.

"Pardon?"

"H-his name." My hands trembled as I bit my lip. I was beating with sweat, hoping I was wrong about this guy.

Chiron nodded and galloped towards the unknown figure. He helped the person up and trotted with the guy in his back.

As he neared us, I had gasped. He was DROP DEAD GORGEOUS: blonde hair, perfect features, and eyes that sparkled a deep violet. All the Aphrodite girls squealed, except Piper, but she looked pretty dazed herself. Campers started talking all at once. The guys all started muttering.

For some reason I couldn't stop looking. I sighed, smiling. Then a sharp pain struck me in my ribs. I yelped and looked at the person on the left of me.

"Connor!" I whispered. "What was that for!?"

He glared at me and shook his head. Connor got up and started towards his cabin, before shooting me one last look, and disappeared.

"Why is he so emotional?" I whined. I turned away from the new guy and started towards cabin eleven.
