Summer Begins...
Talon swooped downwards and spread her wings, hovering over Camp Halfblood. It was the first day of summer, and Talon flew in early to beat the crowd. Normally, she would already be there, being a year-round camper sometimes, but she was up in Maine visiting her mom. She dived down and flew into the Zeus Cabin, and then swooped up to the bed she built in the rafters. Since the statue of her dad always creeped her out, especially with his stern, disapproving glare, she built into a the ceiling a little 'nest'. Talon let Jason have Thalia's spot, and she felt more comfortable in the air anyways.

After making sure all of her stuff was there, she walked out of her cabin, admiring the quietness of dawn, savoring it until all of the other campers pile in later.

"Hey Talon!" said a voice suddenly from behind. Startled, she jumped up and whipped around, pulling out her sword. However, she lowered it once she saw the laughing boy behind her.

"Relax, I'm not a monster," Percy laughed, "I won't pull those kind of practical jokes until later on this summer."

"Hi, Percy," Talon sighed as she transformed her sword back into a silver bracelet. "I was enjoying how quiet it was until you showed up."

"It's good to see you, too," Percy grinned.

Siria walked out of the Apollo Cabin and stretched. "Hi, Talon. Hi, Percy," she yawned.

"What's up?" Percy nodded. "Do you guys wanna do something before the summer campers come?"

"Do what?" a shadowy figure emerged from the black obsidian cabin.

"I dunno," Percy amitted, "Hey Fang, do you have any ideas?"

Fang shook his head, "I just woke up. I heard you guys talking and wanted to check it out."

"Let's just walk around and explore the woods," Talon suggested, "Once the campers come, Chiron will have us booked with activities to help lead."

Siria shrugged, "Fine by me."

They took off into the forest, the dawn light lighting the way. They wandered through, traveling up the creek.

Fang looked around, still admiring the life in the planet. After his planet died, he had stumbled across this world and discovered he was a demigod. He went back and forth for a while, but then the flock found out too. However, since they were 2% bird, the mist didn't affect them. They then left their dead planet and moved here to live at camp. Just then, his razor sharp vision spotted something down the creek. He nudged Talon, who also had good vision. "What's that?" he asked.

She narrowed her eyes. "It's too small to be a monster that roams these woods, but you can never be sure..."

The thing got up and walked over towards them. As it got closer, the group of demigods realized it was their friend Crystal. "Hi guys!" she said, coming over to stand by them.

Percy looked confused. "I could've sworn that you were still in bed when I left..." he scratched his head.

"Well, I wasn't. I was out here before dawn." she said. "I wonder how many new campers we will get this summer..."

Percy just cocked his head, trying to figure out what was in Crystal's bed.

"I know, there gets to be so many of them..." Talon trailed off, remembering the crowds of demigods, half of which of no clue what their doing, roaming around the camp. "So are you enjoying the last bit of peace until they arrive? 'Cause that is what we were doing."

"Yeah. I mean, every single new camper is going to be walking around camp gawking, saying "What's that?" every five seconds. I'm just glad that my cabin never gets newbies."

"Yep." Fang, Percy, and Talon all agreed that it was nice, but Siria just sighed.

"Well, Apollo boys snore," Siria groaned, "and there is always a good amount of people in there."

"Yeah, I wouldn't know," Talon stated, "I'm normally alone expect when Jason visits."

"I know what you mean," Crystal said. "Percy snores like a Cyclopes."

"What?!?" he cried indignantly. "I only snore when I don't have dreams, and I can't be that bad. Trust me, I've slept with Tyson before."

"Percy, my bed vibrates, and I sleep as far away from you as possible." Crystal said.

"Well, lately I haven't had as many dreams, so you'll have to deal with it."

"Umm, guys," Fang interrupted, "It's almost time for breakfast, the campers will be here soon."

"Yeah, and I actually like breakfast because it is the only meal without Mr.D" Crystal said.

"Well come on, then," Fang flapped his dark wings and flew off towards the pavillion, followed by Talon.

"Meet you there!" she called back.

"Well, I guess we better catch up," Percy stated as he started towards the main part of camp.

When they arrived to get their breakfast, demigods already started to flood into the camp. Talon landed in the opening by the fire, then was promptly tackled.

"Get off my you freak!" She rolled over and was about to kick her attacker off, when she saw his laughing face.

"Hey Talon," Matt smiled, "Long time, no see."

"Oh, hey Matt!" Talon got up and ruffled his hair.

Crystal walked over, a smile on her face. "Hey Matt! Long time no see."

"Crystal!" He wriggled himself free of Talon and ran over to tackle her. "Come on, I'm starved. Let's go eat."

Percy walked up towards the pavillion, then motioned to Fang. "Let's go before it gets to crowded. We need to remind the newbees that our tables are empty for a reason."

Siria spotted Zach struggling with a duffle bag, then ran over to him. "Here, I'll get that for you." She tossed the bag in the cabin.

He whipped around to face her. "Siria! It's been so lonely at the house without you!"

"Oh, I bet it was still interesting with you around," Siria commented, "Come on, let's go eat."

Airis appeared next to them in a blinding white flash. "Hey guys!"

"Ahhh!" Siria screamed. "You've got to stop doing that!"

"Airis! It's you!" Zach hugged her, forgeting that she was a goddess.

She stiffened. "Zach? Remember that I told you Zeus would forbid me to come down to earth if you kept hugging me like that," she reminded him, gently pushing him away.

"Oh, right," he said sheepishly, backing away.

"Hey Airis," Siria said, "Are you sure its a good idea to show up with all the new and not-as-experienced campers roaming around?"

"Well, not really, but Zeus told me to make sure that Mr.D got up to welcome the new campers, but after what happened last time...,well let's just say it's not fun to get turned into a dolphin." Airis shuddered.

"What is it with him and dolphins, anyway? I know that he's always threatening to turn Percy into one," Siria wondered.

"Anyways, I like scaring the newbies," she said, rubbing her hands together.

Siria rolled her eyes. "Well, we're going to get breakfast. You can go drag Mr. D out and make sure he doesn't turn a camper into a dolphin." She walked up the hill, followed by Zach.

Once she reached the pavillion, she saw that it was a wreck. Chiron galloped around showing kids to their tables, while trying to stop the Hermes kids from slinging food. Percy and Crystal sat at their table alone, shooing away the overflows that tried to sit there. Chiron was so busy, he didn't even notice that the Hades table was gone.

Several of Aphrodite's newer children dragged the table away to make more room. Fang, the only son of Hades present at the moment, realized that his table was gone and went to retrieve the table.

"Um, I know you're new, but that's my table," he jerked his head slightly towards the displaced table.

A young blond stared at him defiantly. "Who died and made you Zeus? You don't need a whole table, you can go eat in the dirt. Who are you anyways?"

Fang's dark eyes peered down at the girl, as if he was deciding how far he should drop kick her. "I am a son of Hades," he said carefully, "That is my table."

Obviously not knowing who she was dealing with, she retorted, "Then you should love eating in the dirt!"

Fang took a step foward, but fought the urge to smack her. "This is not an ordinary camp, you should give the table back," he growled quietly, hating the fact that some new camper thought that she could do whatever she wanted.

Piper walked over and sighed. "Susan, give Fang back the table. I already told you that we get ONE table." she said, a layer of charmspeak drifting over her voice.

"Okay," Susan said in a trance, "Here you go." She motioned for Fang to take the table.

"Thanks," Fang told Piper, as he dragged his table back to its spot and sat down.

After breakfast, Chiron motioned his "senior" campers, Percy, Crystal, Talon, Fang, Piper, Leo, Annabeth, and Siria, over to him. "Now, as you know, we have a lot of new campers," he started, glancing at Percy, "and not all of them are used to this. I'm going to need you guys to lead some of the activities. Percy, you can continue to teach sword fighting, but let Talon help you because there are more. Annabeth can assist me in teaching Greek, and Piper, you may help by organizing the groups, showing them where they need to be. Fang, help Max and the nymphs oversee other activities such as running and the chariot races, and to teach the techniques of the battlefield. Crystal, you can teach horseback and pegasus-back riding. Just make sure no one rides Blackjack unless he behaves. He tends to only like Percy and you. Siria, watch over the archery lessons, javelin throw, and infirmary when I'm not there. And Leo, I'm going to need you to fit the campers with weapons. Any questions?"

"Nope," Crystal said. "Whe got this."

"Good." Chiron trotted away. "We'll start in the morning," he called over his shoulder.

"Well," Percy stated, "This is going to be fun."

Nightmares in Training
"No!" Percy yelled at the son of Aphrodite, "You hold the sword by the handle, not the blade!" Percy corrected the honey-blond boy and took the sword away before he hurt himself. Right then, one of Clarrises' half brothers pounced on his back with his spear. He twisted around to hold Riptide in a defensive stance, while still trying to teach the kid how to hold a sword. "Talon!" he hollered, "Could you help me out for a sec?" Two of Ares' sons were now trying to pummel him, while a daughter of Nemesis laughed, and a mob of Hermes' kids tore through the arena.

Talon dived down and landed in the middle of the arena, spreading her wings out attimidatingly. "Everyone! Stay still and get off the water boy!" she screamed at them. Some of the kids froze immediantly, while the others, like the sons of Ares, relunctantly backed off. However, a son of Hermes leaped onto her back throwing her off balance. The chaos then continued. "I wonder if the others are having this much trouble," she muttered to herself.

Crystal ducked out of the way before she got trampled by a pegasus. "Hey, watch out!!" she yelled at the son of Ares who had taken one of the pegasi out of his stable. Right when they got into the stables, two of the sons of Hermes (who were a lot like the Stoll brothers) had opened all the stable doors while her back was turned, and now the stables were in total chaos. The Aphrodite kids were running around screaming about their hair and nalis, while the Hermes and Ares kids had tried to harness the pegasi.

Several of the demigods got kicked in the face by Blackjack while they were trying to mount him.

''Crystal, can we run them all over? ''Blackjack asked

"No!!!" she yelled, causing most of the demigods to stare at her.

"Are you talking to the horse?" one of the Aphroditie kids asked.

''HORSE???? Who are they calling a HORSE? I'm no horse. Are you sure I can't pummel them?''

Crystal gritted her teeth. "Yes. I. Am. Now if you all don't shut up and stop acting like the Party Ponies, I will tell the pegasi to run over you." She said, hands on her hips. I wonder if the rest are having this much trouble?

Siria ducked a stray arrow. A young daughter of Demeter gripped the bow too tightly, causing it to quiver in her hands. She pulled out another arrow and sent it flying right towards a daughter of Aphrodite, who trembled at the sight of it coming right at her. "Duck!" Siria yelled, pouncing on the girl as the arrow flew over their heads.

"Sorry!" the daughter of Demeter called.

"Fire in the hole!" Siria looked up to see a son of Hermes shoot the arrow into the sky. It rocketed upward, then fell down towards a guy, a son of Nemesis, who lined up the bow to shoot. The arrow just barely missed him, but it caused him to jerk back and miss the shot.

"I'll get you for that!" he growled, hurtling himself towards the Hermes kid. Siria shot an arrow inbetween the two guys to stop them, but then had to throw herslelf onto the ground to miss more stray arrows. "I wonder if Chiron ever had this much trouble," she thought aloud.

Fang hurtled himself at a girl who was about to be crushed by a chunk of a boulder. In combat practice, a son of Hecate blew up a boulder, causing it to rain down rocks on confused kids. About half of them had their instincts kick in but the others were frozen in shock and wouldn't move.

Max swooped down and plucked up a son of Athena who was about to be crushed, much to his dismay.

"Put me down, you freak!" he half-growled, half-shrieked.

"Your welcome, for saving you," Max replied tartly as she roughly dropped him on the ground. She landed next to me once all of the boulders landed. "This is a big bunch," she noted, and then looked up at him. "I'm glad you're with me, though.

Fang nodded, but then was tackled by a son of Ares. Another one took on Max. "And you are supposed to teach us how to fight?" the boy on Fang laughed. "You two are jokes! Are you even demigods? If you are, then your parent must be a joke!"

Max bucked the guy on her off, bringing her foot around, landing it hard on his chest. She flipped him over and twisted his arm behind his back. "I may not be a demigod, but I ain't no nymph. I can kick your butt so hard that you would wish that you were in Tarterus!" she spat.

Fang then twisted his body around and heaved the boy off of him. The boy got up and was about to lunge, but Fang swiftly moved behind him and drop-kicked him. "My father, Hades," he retorted, as he jutted a rock up out of the ground, knocking the boy off balance again, "is not a joke."

The two boys ran back, grudgingly accepting defeat. "Now," Max announced, "Are you ready to learn, or do we need another demonstration?"

The New Demigod
That morning, Talon dragged herself out of her bed, having been exhausted from the previous day's events. Fighting is one thing, but teaching demigods sword-fighting without hurting them? That was another.

After breakfast, the demigods Chiron appointed had some free time before the day's activities started again.

"That was fun," Percy said sarcastically.

"Yeah, I just love having to teach kids you think that you're a freak," Fang rolled his eyes.

"Well, at least you're not constantly in danger of being impaled!" Siria said. "Archery isn't exactly easy for most demigods."

"Yeah, well, did you almost trampled by pegasi?" Crystal asked.

"What did Blackjack do?" Percy questioned, knowing how mischievous his pegasus was.

"Well, some of the newbies opened the stable doors and startled the pegasi. Some stupid Ares kid tried to get on Blackjack, and proceeded to almost run me over." Crystal said, sighing.

Percy shook his head. "Blackjack can be angered easily."

Leo looked like he had no sleep, with bags under his eyes. "And I though building the Argo II was hard work. Apparently, demigods are really picky about their weapons. It wasn't like when I made Fang's scythe-blade, everyone demands things from me that they don't need, then want in 5 minutes!"

"What type of weapons did they ask for?" Crystal questioned.

"A son of Hermes wanted a sword that can fold up into a penny and can make him faster. A son of Ares wanted a spear that could split open people just by touching them (which I don't trust him with). A daughter of Demeter wanted a seed that could open up as the weapon she wanted. I mean, I may be awesome, but I can't customize these kind of weapons for the whole camp, even if I thought it was a good idea, which I don't!"

"AHHHHH!!" someone screamed from half-blood hill.

Percy whipped his head around to look towards the direction of the hill. "Did someone wander outside the camp?" he wondered as he motioned the others to follow him towards the entrance.

A girl was backed up against Thallia's pine tree, trying not to get bit in half by the tank sized hellhound poised in front of her and trying to keep from getting bit by Peleus, the dragon guarding the golden fleece, at the same time.

Percy jumped foward, and slapped Peleus away, then turning to hold Riptide against the hellhound. "Slowly back away and run past the tree," he breathed.

Fang then landed behind the hellhound, scythe in hand. "Bad boy!" he scolded the hellhound. "Do not eat the demigod." His dark wings were spread out dangerously, probably scaring the new demigod more than the hellhound.

The girl slowly inched away, a look of horror passed on her face. Following Percy's instructions, she ran like the wind away from the tree, leaving the two more experienced demigods to deal with the hellhound.

Percy rolled to the side as the hellhound lunged, swiping his sword up at the dog's belly. When the hellhound faltered, Fang swiped his scythe at it, and its dust blew away in the wind.

As the boys came back, Talon put her arm around the shaking girl. "Who are you?" she asked softly.

"Sabrina." The girl said, clutching her arm, obviously in pain.

Siria looked at her arm, then led her away to the infirmary. As she wrapped it up, she asked, "Could you tell us what happened, Sabrina?"

"Well, I was out in the backyard, and that - that- thing jumped on my back, biting my arm. My dad bust out of the house, and pushed me out of the way before that thing could eat me. He grabbed my arm and thrust this piece of paper towards me and told me to find my way here. When I ran away, the last thing I saw was the thing pouncing on my dad," she choaked back as sob,"and it found me again, so I guess it - it -it killed him" tears started spilling out of her eyes as her head fell into her hands.

Siria put her hand gently on Sabrina's back. "Do you still have this piece of paper," she asked softly.

She fished it out of her pocket. "Here it is."

Talon took the sheet of paper. It had the address to Camp Half-blood on it. She bit back her lip as she asked what she knew would be a personal question. "Do you know anything about your mom?"

"My dad told me that she died when I was a baby." she said, shoulders slumping.

"Well..." Siria said slowly, "She is alive, whoever she is."

Sabrina stared at Siria, her golden eyes widening in disbelief. "What?! How would you know?"

"You see," Siria explained, "this place is called Camp Halfblood. Everyone here has one mortal parent, and one parent that is a...Greek god or goddess. Only halfbloods, or demigods, can enter the camp, making you one. The monster outside, that was a hellhound, one of the many monsters that can sniff us out and try to kill us. In here, though, they can't get in, making it safe."

Sabrina just stared at her, her mouth hanging open in disbelief. "Your joking, right?"

Talon shook her head. "Nope. Haven't you ever noticed weird things going on around you?"

"Well, I thought I saw a man one time that had only one eye... wait. Your telling me that was real?!"

Talon nodded her head. "Yep, that was a cyclops. You see, because we're half god, we can see through this things called the mist. It separates the world of the gods from the mortals. The mortals just see these things as things they can comprehend."

"Then how did my dad see the.. uh.. hellhound?"

"Well, from what it sounds like, he did," Siria explained. "Some mortals are born with 'the sight' which allows them to see through the mist too. Normally, these are the people the gods are attracted to."

Sabrina put her head in her hands. "This is so confusing."

"Don't I know it..." Talon agreed.

Just then, Fang and Percy entered the informary. "We got the hellhound, and made Peleus calm down," Fang announced.

"I swear, Peleus has been so violent lately..." Percy muttered, still holding Riptide.

Sabrina stared at Fang's wing. She shrank back in her seat, clearly intimidated.

Talon glared at Fang. "She's new, so stop scaring her. She just found out for crying out loud!"

"Forgive me, for being a genetic freak," Fang rolled his eyes, "but it's not like I'm the only one with wings."

Talon ignored Fang. Turning to Sabrina, she said, "Let's go find out who your godly parent is. She's obviously not one of the major gods, or else she would have been forced to claim you at 12." She glanced at Percy when she said it, remembering that it was thanks to him that they had to claim their child then.

"How do you find out who my mom is?" Sabrina asked, getting up from her seat.

"Well," Percy stated, "you could ask them really nicely to claim you, or you could go around, doing the activities, finding your talent, and make them claim you."

"What type of activities?"

First, they led her to the sword-fighting arena. Percy moved aside the other campers, and took out his pen. "Let's see how well you fight," he said, beckoning her foward. He pointed to a stash of weapons to the side. "Pick out your weapon there."

She hesitently stepped forward, eyeing the stack of weapons. She reached down and grasped the handle of a Celestial Bronze sword, stepping back to face Percy.

"Alright, now consitrate on suprising me, and trying to disarm me." Percy still held a pen.

"Your going to fight me with a pen!?" she asked.

He looked down, realizing that his sword was still a pen. "Oh, no." He uncapped Riptide, turning it into a long bronze sword. "Now try," Percy said, entering a defensive stance.

Sabrina steped forward, knees bent. She swung her blade at his chest, at the last second diverting it to knick at his legs, causing him to become unbalanced. She tried to knock the blade out of his hands, but he blocked her, twisting her sword so it fell out of her hands.

He laughed, obviously barely trying. "Ok, maybe your mom isn't Nemesis or Nike. Let's try something else."

Next, they went to the lake. "Your mom could be a goddess of the sea," Siria suggested.

Percy leaned back against a tree, the lake lapping against his feet. "This a gotta see," he said to himself as they gave Sabrina a canoe. "Do you want me to race her, or do you wanna give her a chance?"

Sabrina looked at Percy. "I would prefer to have at least a chance of winning."

He waved his hand at Siria, Talon, and Fang, letting them do their thing.

Talon stepped back. "I will not let Percy have the satisfaction of watching me flip over."

Fang just shrugged.

"I guess it would be fair if I raced you," Siria decided, grabbing a canoe.

Sabrina pushed her canoe into the water and jumped in, waiting for Siria to get another canoe.

Siria pushed her canoe in. Percy yelled, "On your mark, good luck, go!"

Sabrina started paddling, her paddle slicing through the water. She was keeping pace with Siria when all of a sudden a torrent of water splashed up from the lake and hit her in the face, the naiads giggling under water. They rocked the canoe and she fell into the water, promptly getting soaked.

Siria wiped out right after her. Percy laughed at the girls and their inability to paddle canoes.

"I think we can scratch any water related off the list," Talon decided as she and Fang flew over to fish them out of the lake.

Percy, still laughing, simply waved his hand and the canoes washed up on the shore.

"It's not my fault that the naiads flipped my canoe over," Sabrina complained, wringing out her hair.

"Yeah, they can be a handful," Percy agreed.

Siria, soaked also, stated, "We're going to try archery next. And Percy cannot say anything about that, because he can barely hit the target board."

The went over the archery range, and Siria handed Sabrina a bow and arrow. Siria took out of her own, and loosed an arrow that hit the center of the bullseye. "Try to aim a little above the center, so it arches," she advised.

She lifted the bow and arrow, and the arrow sliced clean through the center of Siria's.

Talon loosed a long whistle, while Siria thought about the possibilities of her parent. "She has the skill of a daughter of Apollo, but she would've been claimed already if she was," she muttered to herself. She looked at Sabrina's golden hair and eyes. "No way..." she thought, as the pieces clicked in her mind. Airis, if you can hear me, then you need to come explain some things... She directed her thoughts towards the goddess.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" Sabrina asked Siria.

"I have a theory, but she hasn't had any children yet, that I know of," Siria stated. "Now, if she'll only answer me..."

Suddenly, a bright flash of light appeared over Sabrina's head. A glowing version of Airis' pendant was spinning over her head.

Siria flattened her eyes, as the other three demigods were taken back in shock. "Airis," she said, "Are you forgeting to tell me something?"

Sabrina stared up at the glowing pendant, which slowly faded into nothing. She looked at the four demigods who were staring at her in shock. "Uh, who is Airis?" she asked, trying to break the uncomfortable silence.

"Your mom, the goddess of light," Siria replied, still looking around for the goddess to appear so she could properly demand an explanation of her friend.

Sabrina looked surprised. "I have never heard of the Greek goddess of light before..."

"She's relatively new," Siria explained, "She's the daughter of Apollo and Iris."

"Well I guess that makes sense..." she said, thinking it over.

"Maybe to you..." Siria muttered. Then all of a sudden, the world around her faded, and she appeared in a grand room on Olympus.

A Chat in Olympus
"Where am I?" Siria called, flames flickering around her in alarm.

"Siria, relax. I just wanted to talk to you in a more private situation." Airis said, from her seat in the corner of the room.

"Oh, hi Airis... You didn't tell me you had a daughter! I thought you said you didn't have children?"

"I never said I didn't have any children. I just said I didn't have any known children." Airis said defensively.

Siria rolled her eyes. "Same thing, you knew about about Sabrina, therefore, she was known. But does anyone else know? Because you don't have a cabin... and Sabrina is already sort of shaken up. I don't think staying in the Hermes cabin will be good for her."

Airis pursed her lips. "Well, I never told anyone. Infact, Apollo is going to burst into my room right after I send you back."

"Sorry," Siria apologized, "But should I tell the rest of the camp?"

"Yes, you probably should. I am sure Chiron will be surprised."

"Yeah, everyone will. So, umm, could you send me back now?"

Airis sighed. "Of course." She snapped her fingers, and suddenly Siria was back at camp half-blood.

Back at Camp
"Whoa," Siria stumbled backwards when she appeared to Camp Halfblood again.

The others stared at her strangely. "Whoa, what?" Talon asked slowly.

"But, I was just, Airis..." Siria stuttered, feebly pointing up.

Talon and Fang just cocked their heads, but Percy nodded slowly. "I think I know what happened. Let me guess, you were taken out of time by a god, probably Airis?"

Confused, Siria nodded her head. "How did you know?"

"Happened to me once," Percy explained.

"Well, anyways, we've got to announce to the others that Sabrina is the daughter of Airis, and that we need a new cabin," Siria stated.

Just then, Leo came running up to them. "Hey guys, I finally got a break!" he panted, his arm randomly catching on fire. "Hey, who's the new girl?"

Sabrina stares at his arm. "Uh, I'm Sabrina. Are you supposed to catch on fire?"

Leo looked down at his arm, and put out the fire. "Oh, sorry, I do that sometimes..."

"Umm, Leo," Talon said slowly, "Sabrina here is a new demigod, a daughter of Airis, so you're going to need to build a new cabin..."

Leo's eye twitched. He threw his hands in the air. "I'm over-worked and under-appreciated!" he screamed as he turned around to work on the new cabin.

Sabrina turned to face Talon. "Is he always like that?"

"Yep," Talon replied flatly.

Percy narrowed his eyes at Sabrina. "Being your friend, and your mom's friend, is going to be confusing."

"Tell me about it! She's like my niece!" Siria agreed.

Sabrina stared at her in shock. "What?"

"Well, when your mom, Airis, was posing as a teenager at my school, we sort of became really good friends, and since she likes hanging around here a lot, she's been through a lot of stuff with us, and we all consider her a friend, even though she is a goddess," Siria explained.

Sabrina looked confused. "How does that explain how I am like your niece?"

"Oh, well, I'm a daughter of Apollo, and so is Airis, so..." Siria added awkardly.

Sabrina put her head in her hands. "I'm so confused..."

"You see, Apollo saw Siria's mom, fell in love, did some stuff, and Siria was born. Apollo also fell in love and did some stuff with Iris..." Percy explained, being shut off by an angry glare from Talon.

"That's not what I meant!!" Sabrina said, glaring at him.

"Then what did you mean?" Percy was confused.

Fang looked at Percy. "She's new." Turning to Sabrina, he reminded her, "We're all demigods too, so in a weird way we're all related. But just don't focus on that, or else it would be weird, especially when you date another demigod."

Uh... ok. So why do I have to have my own cabin?"

"You're assigned your cabin based on who your godly parent is. If you don't know, you stay with the Hermes cabin, and trust me, you want that cabin built soon because staying with the Hermes cabin is not fun," Percy explained.

"So I am gonig to be the only one in my cabin?"

"Yep," Fang answered. "You'll get used to it."

"So, when do you tell everybody who my, uh, mom is?"

"Now," Siria decided, "We'll go tell Chiron."

She led them over to the Big House, which Chiron stood in front of.

"Umm, Chiron, we have a new demigod," Siria guestured over to Sabrina.

"That's great, tell me who her parent is and I'll take her to her cabin myself," Chiron replied.

"Yeah, about that...Her mom is Airis," Percy told him.

Chiron seeemed a little taken back. "She has a child? Well, we'll have to build a new cabin..."

Leo walked by, followed by several other of his cabinmates, all of them carrying various supplies. Leo muttered something about being taken for granted, while he marched onward towards the cabin area.

"We already told Leo," Talon brought up.

Chiron dipped his head. "Well, until your cabin is completed, you'll have to stay in the Hermes cabin. I'll announce her at lunch," he said, trotting away.

Sabrina turned to look at Percy, her eyes opened in surprise. "How come no one told me Chiron was a centaur!!!"

"Oh, guess that detail slipped my mind..." Percy scratched the back of his neck sheepishly.

Sabrina sighed. "What's so bad about staying in the Hermes cabin?"

"Hermes is the god of many things, one of which being thieves," Talon explained. "Not only are you at risk of being robbed blind, his children tend to be very...mischievous."

A worried look crossed Sabrina's face. "How long do you think it will take, uh, Leo to build my cabin?"

"Not long," Percy replied confidently, "Worst scenario is that he won't be finished 'til the morning."

Sabrina looked surprised. "He can build a cabin in one day?"

"With his whole cabin? You bet. He built a giant flying airship in only a few months," Percy assured her.

"What?!" Sabrina looked shocked.

"Yeah, the guy's gifted," Percy agreed.

"That's-" Sabrina started to say, when she was cut off by something that sounded like a conch shell. "What was that?"

"Oh, it's lunch time," Talon stated, "Follow us."

They led her to the pavillion, where demigods already started to gather and sit down. "Since you don't have a table, you'll have to sit with the Hermes kids." Talon pointed to a group of teens playing around.

Suddenly, something that looked a lot like mashed potatoes came flying at Sabrina from the Hermes table. She ducked to the side, the potatos splattering all over Percy who happened to be standing behind her.

Percy smiled and wiped the potatoes off his face. "That would be the Stoll brothers." He took the potatoes and slinged them back, nailing Connor Stoll in the back of the head. "Watch where you throw your food!" he told them. "Have fun," he told Sabrina, and walked off towards his table.

Sabrina looked over towards Siria and Talon. "Well, are you guys going to go tell them why I am sitting with them?"

"They'll figure it out, but if you want me to tell them..." Talon said to Sabrina, and then to the Stoll brothers, "Hey! A new demigod is here, and doesn't have a cabin, so she'll be sitting with you!" Talon walked over to her table, where she sat alone.

"Good luck," Siria added as she joined Zach at the Apollo table.

Sabrina sighed and walked over to the Hermes table, sitting down on the edge of the bench.

A girl sat down beside her. She had sandy blond hair that fell roughly at around her shoulders, and sparkling light blue eyes. "Hey, I'm Aya. Heard you're new around here," she grinned, reaching out her hand.

"Hey, I'm Sabrina." she said, shaking her hand.

"Sooo...you don't know who your parent is?" Aya questioned, but was cut short by Chiron standing up and motioning for silence.

"As you may know, we have a new demigod," he announced, gesturing towards Sabrina. "However, her godly parent is not an Olympian already represented here. Her mother is Airis, the goddess of light." Murmurs ran through the group of demigods, but Chiron raised his hand to silence them again. "The Hephestus cabin, guided by Leo, are building the new cabin currently. Until the cabin is completed, she will stay with the Hermes cabin. However, considering Valdez's record, the cabin should be built shortly. That is all."

Aya turned towards Sabrina with a look of shock, but it faded quickly. "That's so cool!" she exclaimed.

Sabrina smiled. "Yeah, I guess it is. I really am still trying to process all this new information."

A chunk of mashed potatoes came flying towards them. Aya ducked, leaving it to slap Sabrina in the face.

She wiped the potatoes off her face, staring daggers at the cocky boy who had nailed her with potatoes. She threw them right back at him, the potatoes splattering all over his face.

Connor laughed, and continued to chunk food in various directions.

Aya playfully elbowed Sabrina. "Don't take everything so seriously. He's just having fun. Weren't you with Percy earlier? Surely Connor's not that much of a difference," she laughed.

"Well, Percy didn't chuck potatoes at me..." Sabrina grumbled crossing her arms.

"Yet," Aya added. "I've seen Crystal lash her drink at Percy with chowder in her hair."

Sabrina smiled. "So, is it really as bad to sleep in your cabin as everyone else makes it out to be?"

"Well, we do have a minor thievery issue, and Travis snores, but it not really bad when your used to it," Aya shrugged.

"Well, I'm glad I don't have anything to get stolen." Sabrina said, a smile on her face.

"Yeah, you are lucky, or else I would have already stolen it!" she laughed.

Sabrina smirked. "Well, I'm just glad I wasn't wearing a braclet while I was shaking your hand."

"Or a watch," Aya remided her. "So, what do you know about the life of a demigod?"

"Not much. I just found out this morning..."

"Yeah, well, that means you had a childhood..." A shadow crossed her face.

Sympathy crossed Sabrina's face. "When did you find out?"

"As soon as I could talk and understand things... I was only two." Even though Aya was only about fourteen, her blue eyes darkened in way that seemed as if she went through everything.

"I'm sorry," Sabrina said sympathetically.

The shadow passed from Aya's face, and her eyes brighten. "It's nothing to be sorry about, a lot of demigods go through that kind of stuff." Something about her tone, though, said what she was saying wasn't completely true.

"So what are we going to do after lunch?"

The campers were already leaving. "Whatever. Piper and Chiron haven't completely organized the schedules yet, so we have some free time. Everyone except the Hephestus cabin, that is," Aya replied as she got up.

Sabrina got up as well. "I still feel sort of guilty about that..."

"It's okay. If he wasn't building your cabin, he would be taking orders for weapons from the campers," Aya said. "Speaking of which, you need one."

"Well, I'm not very good with a sword..."

"Hmm... We could go look for a knife, or a bow and some repleneshing arrows," Aya suggested.

Sabrina looked up and smiled. "I think I will go with the bow."

"If I were you, I'd go talk to the Apollo cabin about that. You met Siria right?"

"Yeah, but its a little akward being around her, seeing as she's like, best friends with my mom..."

"You should get used to feeling awkard, especially when some kids can be your aunt or your uncle. But, you could always find someone else. I would help you, but I'm not as skilled in that area as you need someone to be if your picking out a weapon. Just remember, your weapon will be your best friend, so choose wisely," Aya advised. After thinking a while longer, she added, "Here, let's go find Annabeth. She has access to the weapons shack. Plus, she'll probably know what you'll need."

Aya led Sabrina to a girl with pale blond, curly hair. She turned around as Aya greeted her. Facing Sabrina, she said, "You must be Airis' daughter! I'm Annabeth." Annabeth held her hand out.

Sabrina shook it, a grin on her face. "Hi. I'm Sabrina."

"So, is there anything you need?"

Sabrina glanced at Aya, then back to Annabeth. "Well, apparently I need a weapon."

"Of course you do! Let's see, if Airis is your mother then... We'll go find you a bow, then an arrow, and from there the Hephestus cabin can create more." She motioned to Sabrina to a shed, which was full of weapons when she opened it. She motioned to a wall full of bows. "Here, pick one out. Make sure it feels right in your hand."

As Sabrina walked into the shed, something in the far corner caught her eye. She walked over and picked up a bow that was tucked far away into the corner. It was ivory white, with golden etchings swirling around it. She picked up the matching quiver, the golden etching of the arrows sparkling as she walked out of the shed.

Aya let out a low whistle.

"Does it feel right in your hands?" she asked again.

Sabrina gripped the handle, then looked up, a wide smile crossing her face and her eyes sparkiling with excitement. "Yep!"

"Alright, well, as soon as Leo is done with your cabin, he can forge some more, or wire your quiver to replenesh itself, similar to the way the Hunters of Artemis have it," Annabeth told her. "Until then," she continued, "You can explore the camp and get to know the campers. See ya!"

Sabrina admired her bow, flipping it around in her hands, then looked over towards Aya. "Were do you suggest we go first?" she said raising her eyebrows.

"Hmm...How 'bout I give you a tour of the cabins?" Aya suggested.

"Ok! Let's go!"

How Well Do You Know Camp Halfblood?
"The twelve buildings in the U shape were the original buildings, one for each of the major gods, with the exception of Hades. After the second Titan War, the others were added for Hades and the minor gods," Aya explained as she walked Sabrina over to the cabins.

Sabrina looked around at the cabins and then back at Aya. "Wow, I feel really bad for you, considering that the Hermes cabin takes in all the unclaimed demigods. It must be really cramped in your cabin."

"Actually...after the second Titan War, the gods were forced to claim their kids by the time they are thirteen. Only a few children of minor gods, like you, ever come into our cabin. Before the war though, man that was cramped!" Aya replied.

Sabrina raised her eyebrows at this. "How come I wasn't claimed at thirteen?"

"Well, sometimes the minor gods don't always follow through, because Zeus was the one that made the promise on behalf of the twelve Olympians. Sometimes, circumstances force the gods to wait until later. From what I've heard about Airis, she must have thought she was protecting you by waiting."

"Yeah, I guess..." Sabrina said, a shadow slipping over her face.

"Are you okay?" Aya looked concerned.

Sabrina snaped out of her trance, looking back up Aya. "Yeah. So what happened during the Titan War?"

"Well, the... Titan Lord rose from Tarturas over a period of a few years, using pawns to do so. A prophecy, however, was tied to the event. One demigod, a few in my opinion, held the fate of Olympus. Luckily, he chose to fight for the gods, unlike some others who believed the gods were unfair and fought for the Titans. After the Titan Lord was defeated, the demigod chose to prevent this from ever happening again, honoring the wishes of...another demigod. He forced Zeus and the gods to claim their children when they turned thirteen, and to give all gods and their children recognition in Camp Halfblood," Aya explained.

Sabrina widened her eyes. "Who was this demigod?"

"The one in the prophecy?" Aya pointed to a black haired boy who was messing around with Annabeth, both of them chasing each other around. "It was Percy, son of Poseidon. He gave up the chance to become a god in order to make Zeus promise to do this."

Sabrina's eyes widened even more. "Percy had the chance to become a god?!"

"Yeah, because he defeated the Titan Lord. But he has a big heart. Not only did he want to unite the demigods, because a god would've torn him away from Annabeth."

Sabrina smiled. "That's so nice of him."

"Yeah, it sure is..." Aya smiled. "So, if you have any questions, feel free to let me know," Aya told her as they walked along the cabins.

As Sabrina glanced at all the cabins, her eyes caught sight of the hyper kid from before who had been told to build her cabin. She looked in shock and saw that it was almost finished."How did he do that so quickly?" Sabrina asked, motioning over towards where Leo was working on the almost finished cabin.

"He's...he's...he's just Leo. Some say that he is the most ADHD demigod here."

"I could tell that from being near him for all of thirty seconds."

"Yeah, he sure is something..." Aya said they watched him juggle multiple tasks at once.

Sabrina glanced around at the cabins, her eyes lingering on a cabin with a crude red paint job and barbed wire around the top. "That's the Ares cabin, right?"

"Yep. I would stay away from that one if I were you. The only inhabitant of that cabin that wont attack you, is prabably Frank, and he's a Roman, so he's only here sometimes."

Sabrina looked shocked. "Wait, there is Romans too?!"

"Oh yeah, the gods have, like, split personalities that were created when the Romans rose to power. It's...complicated," Aya tried to explain.

Sabrina sighed. "Everything about this place is complicated."

A mean looking girl strode out of the blood red cabin. "Hello, fresh meat," she smirked at Sabrina.

Aya glared at the girl. "Back off, Clarisse," she growled.

"Hmp. Like I should listen to you," Clarisse snarled.

"Yeah? Well, I could organize my cabin and we could go through the twelve days of catastrophies again. Wasn't that fun?" Aya smirked back at Clarisse.

Clarisse growled at Aya. "This isn't your fight! I'm simply welcoming the new girl," she gestured at Sabrina with an evil look in her eye. "How 'bout I go show you the toilets?" she sneered, but faltered, "You aren't a daughter of Poseidon are you?"

"N-no," Sabrina said.

She smiled evilly, grabbing the scruff of her shirt. "Then let's go."

Aya stepped in front of Clarisse. "Let. Her. Go."

"Make me!"

Sabrina looked furious, her eyes glowing. She ripped Clarisse's hand off her shirt. "Get your hands off of me." she snarled.

Clarisse glared at Sabrina. "Next time," she promised, "You will be mine." She stalked off, glancing bitterly back at Sabrina.

"Nice," Aya complemented, holding her hand up for a high five.

The glow in Sabrina's eyes faded. "Thanks!" she said, reaching up and high fiving Aya. "Though, I never knew my eyes started to glow when I got mad..."

"I've heard that Airis' does. Percy describes it like it's the headlights that you see right before a train hits you." They continued to walk, going past the black, obsidian cabin.

"I wonder why it's never happened before..." Sabrina mused, looking over towards the black cabin. "Who's cabin is that?"

"That's the Hades cabin. Fang is the only one in it right now, though Nico is also a son of Hades," Aya explained.

Fang was standing at the door. He dipped his head towards them. "Hey Aya, hey Sabrina," he greeted.

Sabrina smiled. "Hey Fang."

"I saw that you scared away Clarisse. Nice job," he commented. "When she tried to attimidate me, well, that didn't go well for her. Oh, and sorry I scared you earlier."

"That's okay. Thanks for saving my life by the way," Sabrina said, smiling in his direction.

"No prob," he said calmly.

A girl with brown hair and sun streaks came over to him. "Hey, have you guys seen the Airis cabin yet?"

Sabrina looked over in surprise. "He finished it already?"

"Putting up the finishing touches," she replied. "In fact, you should probably help him out with that part. Siria is there, since she knows all about Airis, but you can always request your own touches."

Fang walked to the girl's side. "Well, I'll go with you, Max. I want to see how Iggy is doing with the decorating."

Max grinned. "It is pretty funny," she agreed.

A white cabin with golden trims was already erected at the end of the girls' side of the cabins. Several kids were on the roof, hammering in the last of the reflective shingles. The whole building glittered in the sunlight, taking on an aura of light. Inside, more demigods brought in furniture. Golden trimming outlined the inside as well, with strategically placed long mirrors on the walls, reflecting the light brought in by the two grand windows on either side of the cabin. A fountain with a winged goddess in a billowing Greek dress on it was being installed by two daughters of Hephestus. Four boys were installing a marble floor, while some other kids built in beds that were attached to a wall. Ladders were attached to wall as well to reach the upper beds. Above each bed, were drawers that pulled out of the wall.

Leo and some kid with pale strawberry blond hair were up on a ladder that reached the large dome roof. Leo had a bunch of wires hanging down from the ceiling. Connected to them, were panels similar to the ones on the roof. "Hand me the blue wire," Leo asked.

The boy fumbled around, touching all of the wires, before he handed Leo the one he asked for.

"Now could you hand me that one," he pointed to a panel hanging from the ceiling by a few wires.

The boy glared at Leo. "Be more specific."

Leo looked a little sheepish. "Sorry about that Iggy, it's a panel hanging at 2 o'clock," Leo asked with more detail.

Iggy handed him the panel, then, without facing the demigods who just arrived, informed Leo, "Fang, Max, and....Aya I think just came in. Someone else I don't recognize is with them."

"Oh, that's Sabrina. Hey, what do you think of your cabin?" Leo asked her.

"It's amazing!" Sabrina said staring around at the cabin with wide eyes. "How did you guys do all of this only five hours?!"

Leo shrugged. "We work fast."

Siria came through the doorway. "Hey Iggy, Talon and I are going to raise the symbol above the doorway. Can you come with us to install it?"

He jumped down swiftly from the ladder. "Sure."

"Hey, while you guys are out, can you go get Percy or Crystal, maybe both? I going to install a bathroom in this one, because the public ones are overcrowded. Chiron wants us to start installing them in the cabins that don't have many campers, because they can spare the room. I need one of them to activate the plumbing," Leo requested as Siria and Iggy walked out.

"Sure thing," Iggy replied.

Talon was already holding a giant replica of Airis' pendant, except without the chain part. She hovered in the air with giant flaps of her black and white wings. "Go ahead, take your time," she said sarcastically.

"Oh, sorry," Siria unfolded white and goldish wings and jumped into the air to help her. They carried the pendant into place above the doorway. Siria cleared the way for it as Talon manipulated the wind to hold it in place.

Iggy leaped into the air as well, catching air with his large, pale wings. He flew to the pendant. "Is it right side up?" He felt around.

"Yeah, it is," Talon grunted.

Iggy found the edge of the symbol, and took out a hook and attached it to the back. He placed a hand on the edge, and emmited heat from his palm, slowly melting the edge to the building. Once he, with the help of Siria, welded it on, they stood back to look at it.

"Oh no! It's crooked," Talon exclaimed.

"Really?" Iggy moaned, "Okay, let's pry it off and try-" He stopped when he heard the girls laughing. "Real funny..." He attempted to roll his eyes. "Am I rolling my eyes right?" he sarcastically asked the girls who tricked him. He turned to Sabrina. "Do you like it? And please be honest."

"It's amazing!" Sabrina said, still admiring the inside of the cabin.

"I was talking about the symbol, but I'm glad you like the inside... I hear Percy coming, I'll go talk to him." Iggy turned and flew off towards where Percy was walking with Annabeth in the distance.

Just then, Crystal came out of her cabin and walked over towards the group of demigods. "Hey guys!"

"Hi." Sabrina said, then turning to look at Siria. "How come Iggy has wings? I didn't think Hephestus had wings...."

"No, he doesn't. Actually, he's terrified off heights. Iggy is a...different story." She turned to Talon, adding, "Nice one, telling him the thing was crooked, you should've seen the look on his face!" She gave Talon a high five.

Max rolled her eyes. "That wasn't nearly as funny as when I rearranged that mountain house, forgetting about him. He must have run into everything! Of course, that was before he got that heat thing."

"Ugh. This is getting more confusing with every passing minute." Sabrina complained, rubbing her temple.

Percy walked up with Iggy following. "Alright, show me the plumbing," he said, rubbing his hands together. "Oh hi, Sabrina."

Siria walked up to Sabrina. "Umm, Iggy was born here, but grew up somewhere else, along with Fang, Max, and some others. They were, uh, grafted with wings and experimented on, resulting in some interesting abilities..." she tried to explain as gently as possible.

Sabrina raised her eyebrows then sighed. "Well, it's just as weird as everything else that happens here."

Crystal turned towards Percy. "What's this about plumbing?"

"Oh, yeah, Leo wanted us to help him install the plumbing for the bathroom," Percy told her.

"Ok." she said, walking towards the door. "Let's go."

Leo saw them coming, and ran over to them. "Great! You're here," he walked towards a small room connected to the main room and motioned them over too. "Okay, now these pipes are running underground. I got Fang to help me put it there, but I need it to be connected to a water source. Percy, can you try to bring up some water?"

Percy looked down the pipe, then concentrated. After a little while, a stream of water came up through it.

"Do you need me to do anything Leo?" Crystal asked.

"Yes," Leo moved towards the pipe and pressed a button on a machine hooked up to it. "Take some of the water and put it through that pipe, while Percy puts it through that one." He pointed towards a pipe that connected to the sink, and one that connected to the toilet.

Crystal concentrated on the water and a stream of it flowed through the pipe towards the sink.

Percy did the same, flowing it towards the toilet pipe.

"Okay, now it hold it steady..." Leo flicked a switch. Instantly, the water was pushed up towards Crystal and Percy.

Percy spit out the toilet water, and slowly controlled the water back into the pipe. "Um, Leo? What was supposed to happen?"

"Heh, heh. Whoops, I flicked the switch the wrong way..." He pushed the switch down and made some adjustments to the control panel. "Let's try that again," he opted as he pressed a button. This time, the water was sucked down the pipe. "Perfect!" Leo said triumphantly. He ran over to the pipes and quickly added to the gaps, along with added valves and other stuff. He fiddled around with the panel a little longer, then closed it and put the lever on the toilet that flushes it. The water swirled around and exited the pipe, being replaced with new water. "Thanks," Leo said to Percy and Crystal, "I couldn't have tested the pipes without you."

"Yeah, well I'm just glad the toilet exploded on Percy and not me."

Percy cut his eyes at Crystal. "It wasn't actually used as a toilet yet, you know that right? Water exploded on you too."

"Yeah, but your water was in the toilet."

Percy's eyes flattened. "There is no arguing with you, is there? Let me know if you need any more help, Leo." He walked off towards the lake.

Leo clapped his hands together. "Well, all that's left is cosmetics. We'll be done in about an hour, provided Iggy doesn't get stuck painting or hanging up wallpaper, then it might take us about two hours."

"Ok. I will be in the pegasus stables if you need any more help," Crystal said, walking back towards the main part of the cabin.

One and a half hours later...

Aya covered Sabrina's eyes, followed by Siria.

"Hey! What did you cover my eyes for?"

"You'll see," Aya laughed as she led her in a random direction.

She stopped, and uncovered her eyes. Leo and the rest of the Hephestus cabin stood in front of a gold and white cabin that shone brilliantly in the sunlight with its glittering roof. Leo had a crazy, maniac-like smile spreading across his face. "So, what do you think?"

A large smile spread across Sabrina's face as she looked at her new cabin. "It's amazing!"

"Why thank you," Leo bowed dramatically.

"I guess this means you won't have to stay with me tonight, afterall," Aya playfully elbowed her in the side.

Sabrina smiled and turned towards Aya. "Yeah, but now I know that my bow is not in danger of being stolen durring the night!"

Aya laughed. "A worthy concern."

"Speaking of which," Iggy brought out a beautiful, white, gold trimmed quiver full of elogant arrows. "After I got, er, relieved from paint duty, I went ahead and made you these. Once the quiver is empty, it reloads itself automatically. Plus, the arrows are heat resistant." He handed Sabrina the quiver.

"Wow! That's so cool! Thank you!" Sabrina replied, admiring one of the arrows that she had pulled out.

"Now you just have to test them out," Siria said, walking to her side.

Talon swooped down and landed hard in front of them. "I think that might be sooner than you think," she huffed, "Circe left her island! And she's leading her army of cronies straight here."

Suddenly, a horn sounded, telling the demigods to prepare for battle. A white pegasus swooped out of the sky and landed next to Talon. Crystal was sitting on top of her pegasus Saphira, a hunting horn in her hand and sorwd at her side. "I scouted out Circe and her minions, they will be hear in 15 minutes at the best. Everyone needs to get ready for battle."

Circe's Revenge
"What?!?" Siria was shocked. "But Circe herself never leaves her island. Why would she come here?"

"I don't know, but Percy and Fang are already at the gate. The barrier won't keep her out, or at least not the demigods that became her followers. We have to help them fend her off!" Talon explained urgently. She extended her wings and took off, her sword in her hand.

Leo motioned to his cabin, which were already gathering their weapons and armor. "We have to form a barrier with the Apollo cabin to protect the camp." The others nodded and ran off, while Iggy came to Leo's side.

"A few of us can fight at the front too," he suggested, a whip-like weapon held tightly in his fists. Leo nodded and they ran off.

Siria turned to Matt, who just ran up. "You heard what Leo said. Gather the cabin and tell them to join the Hephestus cabin. You, Zach, myself, and a couple other seniors will be towards the front." She turned to Sabrina. "Come with us, but stay near the back, you're not used to this," she advised.

"Ok." Sabrina said, lifting her quiver over her back.

Crystal looked towards Sabrina. "Be careful." Then she urged her pegasus into the air, drawing her sword and flying after Talon.

Once the Hephestus and Apollo cabins came, Fang and Percy advanced towards the army, Siria and Talon already by their side. Percy sat on Blackjack, who reared impatiently. Fang held his scythe. "What do you think she wants?" he whispered.

Leo and Iggy came up behind them. Iggy stared Circe's direction silently. "Who knows why she does anything? Unless it's revenge," he growled.

"Well, she certainly has a reason to want revenge against us. Let's see if we can get her attention." Talon flew up in the air and struck lightning right in front of the advancing army.

Circe stopped and smiled coldly. "Well, what kind of welcome is this?" She laughed. "You cannot stop me from getting what I want. And what I want, is revenge against all of you who barged onto my island and wreaked havoc! I thought it was due time to return the favor. Attack!"

Her army ran forward, clashing with the wall of demigods that formed.

Blackjack pushed foward, dipping down so Percy could slash through the mob. Fang, joined by Max and the rest of the flock, flew over as well, swooping down to land hits and slashes on the reckless girls.

Siria formed a massive wall of fire, but it crumbled under the spells of Circe's minions. She flew upwards, launching fiery hot arrows at the mass, piercing some through their shields and barriers.

Crystal shot blasts of water at the army, Saphira dipping down to kick at the heads of Circe's minions and so Crystal could slash at them with her sword.

Circe raised her hands and shrieked a few words. Tendrils of wood, like fat roots, shot up out of the ground. It knocked aside several demigods like bowling pins, then reached to grab Talon and Siria out of the sky. Percy and Blackjack swooped down to cut the root, but as soon as his sword connected with the root, another tendril shot out and snatched Percy and tangled Blackjack.

Fang dipped down behind Circe and kicked her in the back. A large black rock jutted out of ground and rammed into her, throwing her, and the roots, out of balance.

Talon took advantage of the moment of weakness and broke her arm free. She blasted a bolt of lighting out of her fingertips that struck the base of the tendrils. They faltered and fell, freeing Talon and Siria, as well as Blackjack and Percy.

Circe, in rage, spun around and slashed at Fang with her blade. He jumped back, the enchanted blade grew longer and sliced his chest. He pulled a slab of stone out the ground to form a barrier between them, and flew off before she shattered the wall.

Sabrina notched an arrow in her bow and shot it at Circe.

The arrow flew towards her, grazing her arm. In return, she formed a wispy black arrow and sent it flying towards Sabrina.

It hit Sabrina in the arm, causing her eyes to glow in anger. She ripped the arrow out and shot a beam of light at Circe.

"Touche," Circe mumbled as she leaped out of the way of the beam. "You know what the opposite of light is, sweetie? Darkness!" She snapped her fingers and a wave of darkness swept through the entire area Sabrina was in, which included Zach, Matt, and Siria.

As the darkness swept over Sabrina, she felt her power weakaning as a cold chill went up her spine.

Suddenly, an orange fire swept through in front of her, casting a reddish glow. "Sabrina! You there?" Siria called, her wings flickering faintly with orange flames. The power was draining her too, but she was able to pull through enough to get to Sabrina.

"Yes," Sabrina replied weakly, trying to push her way out of the darkness.

Siria flew towards her and grabbed her arms. Heat poured into Sabrina's body, giving her strength.

Sabrina let out a blast of light, dissolving the darkness. She turned towards Circe, a dangerous light flickering in her eyes, glowing light still surrounding her body.

Zach stood dumbfounded at Sabrina's power, holding a weak Siria in his arms.

Circe let out a growl and motioned for her girls to attack Sabrina. Ten of them dashed towards her, holding daggers in their hands. They surrounded Sabrina and shot out purple beams that wrapped around her tightly.

Sabrina let out an angry yell, a flood of hot, searing light bursting out from her, the purple beams disappearing. "You think you can get rid of me that easily, Circe? Think again!" Sabrina yelled, shooting a glowing white arrow strait at the Sorceress.

Circe screamed as the arrow hit her. She let out a ripple of darkness out in rage.

One of the girls that surrounded Sabrina leaped up and stabbed her in the leg when the shockwave knocked her off balance.

The shockwave knocked everyone out of the sky too. Blackjack and Saphira were tossed backwards, leaving Percy and Crystal falling to the ground. Talon, Max, and Fang dropped out of the sky as well. Black arrows shot through Talon, Crystal, and Percy as they fell, piercing them through the stomach. They dropped on the ground, while purple ropes tangled the others.

Crystal yelped in pain as she landed on her stomach, pushing the arrow even farther in.

Talon painfully ripped the arrow at of herself, then staggered upwards, shooting a lightning bolt straight at Circe.

Circe shrieked as the bolt of pure white electricity sent her flying back. She shot back a bolt of black power that sent Talon back to the ground.

Fang morphed his scythe back to a blade and cut himself free of the tangling ropes. The scythe morphed back into his hands as he raised it up. The ground shook and skeletal hands reached out of the ground. Circe's army shrieked as undead warriors threw themselves onto them.

Sabrina broke through the ropes and advanced towards Circe, shooting glowing arrows in her direction.

Circe swallowed the arrows in a cloud of darkness. "Kill them all!" she screamed to her army.

The army advanced, slashing at the undead warriors until they fell apart. Fang jerked back as the connection with the dead broke, and two girls advanced on him. He swiped his scythe at them, and ducked as they shot purple ropes at him. Touching his styngian iron scythe to one girl, he pulled out the corrupted part of her soul. However, the other girl stabbed him in the side. Fang fell to ground, clutching his side.

Siria flew up into the air and scorched the girl who stabbed Fang. A trail of white hot fire followed her and she rammed through the mob of girls.

Sabrina made her way through the army, shooting beams of light at anyone who tried to approach her. One of the girls snuck up behind her and thrust a blade in her arm. She again stabbed her, and Sabrina fell to the ground, her head letting out a stream of blood.

Max swooped down and picked up Sabrina before the girl stabbed her again. A trickle of blood from her forehead dropped on Sabrina. "Are you okay?" Max asked her.

Sabrina groaned. "Well, I'm not dead, so I guess I'm okay. Thanks for saving me from getting stabbed to death."

"Don't mention it." Max set her down on the ground, while she circled back and met up with some other flying kids, who were smahing the girls' heads together from above. Iggy and a smaller flying boy dropped something, then a huge flash signalled an explosion in the mist of Circe's army.

Holding her head, Sabrina scrambled up and notched an arrow, and explosion of light expanding from where it hit.

Black clouds swirled in the sky, and a bolt of lightning pierced the sky. Talon hovered in the middled of the spinning clouds, and a vortex of wind swirled underneath her, touching the ground like a tornado. Torrents of water poured from the clouds in a ring around Talon. Her eyes glowed with power, though they flickered every now and then as she winced from the piercing hole in her stomach.

Before the water hit the ground, the sheets merged together in a spinning cyclone. Percy pushed the mass of water through the army, either knocking them into the tornado or sucking them into the water. Beads of sweat from his forehead mingled with the blood of his injury, but he continued the control the cyclone of water.

Crystal stood up slowly and ripped the arrow out of her stomach, wincing in pain. She walked over towards Percy, helping him keep the water up.

"Thanks," he grunted as he swept a portion of the water out to knock aside some advancing girls.

Iggy flew over the army. He wrapped his whip around one girl, then whiplashed her into the next. But a stinging pain in his wing brought him to the ground, where Circe held the end of his whip and yanked him towards her.

"You are painfully persentant, blind boy," she growled. "I suggest you stop, before you gain the same fate as your mother."

"Never!" Iggy ducked and yanked down on the whip, sending her flying over him. He brought the tip back to him and morphed it into a sharp arrow head by heating it up.

She lunged at him with her blade, but the moment she left the ground, he heard her and darted to the side, using his whip to knock the blade out of her hand. Growling, she thrust herself onto him, trying to force the extra dagger she possessed into his throat. "It's about time I make sure you die!" she hissed.

Iggy rolled to the point where Circe's back was exposed to the line of archers. "We'll see," he huffed while he tried to catch the attention of the archers, signalling that her back was exposed.

Sabrina looked over and saw Iggy's signal. She notched an arrow and shot it at Circe's unprotected back, the arrow radiating with light.

Circe shrieked in pain as the arrow pierced her. Her image flickered. "Fall back!" she screamed, as she and her army disintergrated into the air.

Iggy climbed to his feet, rubbing his neck where the tip of Circe's blade touched. "Good job!" he called to Sabrina.

"Thanks! Wait, your blind? Well that makes more sense now..." Sabrina said, rubbing her head, wincing.

"Yeah, well, I had an...accident a long time ago... Anyways, we should probably get everyone inside the camp, injured and unconscious first." Iggy walked over and picked up Talon, who was unconscious from the strain of the storm and the arrow wound.

Just then, a streak of brown rushed past him, skidding to a halt. Hazel sat on Arion, a shocked look on her face as she observed the remains of the battle.

Jason and a large hawk flew in behind her, also in shock at the scene. "What happened?" Jason asked in disbelief. He saw Percy lying on the ground, and rushed to him, picking him up. He noticed the bloody hole in his side, and how pale he was.

All of a sudden, Sabrina fainted, landing hard on the ground.

Iggy turned to Jason. "There was a battle with Circe. I'll explain more later, but just help me get everyone inside the camp now, okay?" He motioned towards Siria and Crystal who were also unconscious.

After everyone was inside the camp, the Apollo kids frantically ran around, tending to everyone's wounds. The demigods with the worst injuries, like Percy, Talon, and Crystal, were in the infirmary, while others were positioned outside of the Big House. The few girls that Fang liberated sat shivering on the porch.

Zach poured a small amount of necter down Sabrina's throat. "How are you feeling?" he probed.

Sabrina propped herself against the side of the house, one of her hands on her head. "Horrible."

"But," Zach objected, "You're awake, alive, and have no broken bones. That's good for demigod standards." He looked at the shivering girls on the porch. "If you feel like it, could you check on them, they're probably in shock from being under Circe's control for so long, and from what Fang said, it was forced."

Sabrina pushed herself to her feet. "Ok. I wish we could have saved more of them..."she said.

When Sabrina walked off, Zach quickly shook his head. "I can't believe Airis had a daughter!" he mumbled to himself.

Three girls sat on the porch. One had light blond hair and gray eyes, another had reddish hair with freckles dotted across her face, and the other had long black hair and dark hazel eyes.

Sabrina knelt down in front of one of the shaking girls. "Hey, are you okay?" Sabrina asked, concern in her eyes.

The girl with the blond hair looked up at her. "No, I'm not. I was under her control for five years!"

"Well, now your not. It could be worse, you could still be under her control."

"You don't understand! She outsmarted me! ME!" she spat.

The one with the red hair rolled her eyes. "I was trapped too, but you don't see me whining about it. Just because you're a daughter of Athena doesn't mean you have to be perfect."

Sabrina sighed and turned towards the other girl. "Hey, are you okay, or are you going to yell at me to?"

The girl looked up at Sabrina, fear and confusion clouding her eyes. "I-I don't know... W-what happened?"

Sabrina sighed. "Well, you were, like, brainwashed by this evil sorceress lady, who made you do everything she wanted you to do, but Fang saved you by pulling out the corrupted part of your soul."

She held her head like she was in pain. "I can remember some lady attacking me, and-and, doing something...but I it's all a blur."

"Well, I remember everything perfectly..." the red head muttered.

Sabrina raised her eyebrows. "So, you really don't remember anything that has happened to you?"

"No, I can't!" she cried, still shaking her head. "I can see glimpes of a shipwreck, and some monster, but... Where am I anyways?"

"Camp Half-Blood." Sabrina said.

"Camp what?" she asked, even more confused.

Just then, Fang walked over to Sabrina. "Hey, are they okay?"

"Well, they seem fine, other that the fact of that they have been under an evil influence for five years," Sabrina said, motioning towards where the first two girls sat, still bickering. "But she," Sabrina said, motioning towards the black-haired girl, "says she can't remember anything about what happened to her while she was under Circe's influence."

Fang looked at the girl, and her dark eyes met his. Unfortunately, her headache worsened after seeing him. "My head is spinning..." she groaned.

Fang turned around to face Sabrina. "It's getting late, and it's about dinner time." The conch horn sounded in the distance to confirm what Fang said. "I can take care of them, you go eat."

"Ok." Sabrina said, standing up and walking over towards where the dining pavillion sat.

Leo and Frank were walking up as well. "Hey dude," Frank asked Leo, "What's that cabin down there for?" He pointed at Airis' cabin.

"That's the Airis cabin, I just happened to-" Leo answered before he was cut off.

"Airis? Is she some minor goddess that doesn't do anything?" Frank interrupted.

Leo was about to answer when he saw Sabrina storm towards them. "Umm..." He pointed to Sabrina over Frank's shoulder. "Oh, well, do you hear that? It seems like my stomach's growling, you know, after the battle and all... I'll just be over there." Leo ran up the hill, meeting up with Hazel, who greeted him.

Frank stared after them and grunted, then turned around just to see Sabrina.

She stood with her arms crossed, her eyes glowing in rage. "Did you just call Airis a minor goddess that doesn't do anything? I'll have you know, I happen to be Airis' daugter, and I also happened to be the one who stopped Circe from destroying the camp." Sabrina said, light flickering across her body.

Frank stumbled back. "Uhh...err... I didn't mean to offend you-" Frank took a few steps back and ran up the hill, leaving Sabrina in the dust.

Aya walked up behind Sabrina. "Nice, you just sent the son of Mars running away crying."

The glow in Sabrina's eyes faded, but she still looked angry. "No one insults me and my mom and gets away with it." She yelled in Frank's direction.

"You are going to be a force to be reckoned with," Aya laughed as she walked towards the pavilion. "Oh by the way," she called over her shoulder, "you have a table now."

"Well, now I don't have to worry about getting hit in the face with food again." Sabrina said, laughing, as she walked into the dinning pavillion.

"You always have to worry!" Aya called back.

Unravelled
Fang turned to the two girls who were still bickering. "You know who your parent is right?"

They nodded.

"Good, now go eat dinner," he motioned towards the pavillion. After they left, he turned to the shivering black haired girl. "Okay, let's start at the basics. What's your name?"

She stared hard in the distance, as if she was struggling to remember. "Olive, I think," she finally replied.

"Okay, Olive. Do you know how you got under Circe's spell?"

Olive bit her lip. "There was a shipwreck, then...I was alone with the girls." She paused for a while. "I was fighting them, but something happened. Then there was nothing but darkness."

"Circe must have done something to your mind," Fang determined. "Do you know that you are a halfblood?" he asked her.

She shook her head. "I really don't, but it seems familiar at the same time."

"The Greek gods? Anything?" Fang probed gently.

"Yes, I think I know what the gods are, but those are from hazy memories after the period of darkness." Olive shivered.

"Are you hungry?" Fang asked.

She shook her head.

"Well, you can stay in the infirmary tonight. Maybe one of the Apollo kids can jog your memory." He laid his hand on her shoulder for comfort, but when they touched, a shiver ran down his spine. Random voices echoed through his head, and he jerked back.

Fang sat down at his table and picked at his food. Hazel sat down in front of him. "Hey, what's wrong?" she probed.

"Nothing, it's just some weird stuff going on," he mumbled.

Knowing that she wasn't going to get anything out of him, she shut up. Her gaze swept across the pavillion. "Wow, there sure are a lot of people this summer," she muttered. She noticed Sabrina, sitting alone at a new table across from theirs, staring hard at Frank from across the room. "Umm... are you okay?" she called nervously across to her, not sure whether she should be concerned or not.

Sabrina whipped her head around to find who had spoke to her. "Yeah," she called back, glancing at Hazel.

Hazel lifted her hands up in defense. "You were justing staring angrily at Frank, so I was just wondering..." She decided to change the subject. "So, are you new?" she asked.

"Yes, I just got here this morning, though it seems longer than that..." Sabrina said, sighing.

"Yeah, days sure do last long..." Hazel replied.

"So, anyways, who are you?" Sabrina asked.

"Oh, I'm Hazel Levesque, daughter of Pluto."

Sabrina raised her eyebrows. "Well, I'm Sabrina, daugter of Airis..."

"Airis... Isn't she strictly a Greek goddess?" Hazel questioned.

"Yes...." Sabrina said questioningly, raising her eyebrows.

"Oh, well, some gods are only Greek, and some are only Roman, so I was just making sure," Hazel tried to clarify.

"Oh, well, ok," Sabrina said, glaring at Frank one more time before looking down at her food and sighing. "This is all so much to take in, and I have only been her for, like, six hours...." Sabrina said, picking at her food.

"So... is there any particular reason why you're glaring at Frank like that?" she questioned.

Sabrina's eyes flared white for a second, then faded back to gold. "He insulted me and my mother, saying she was a minor goddess that dosen't do anything," she fumed, anger showing in her eyes.

"Well, he doesn't know much," she sighed. "Just give him a break."

The anger in Sabrina's eyes subsided a bit, but she still looked mad. "Fine."

After dinner, the demigods gathered around the campfire. Mrs. O'Leary bounded towards the campers. She paused, looking for Percy. When she didn't see him, she pounced on Fang, who was sitting next to Sabrina.

Sabrina scrambled away, fear in her eyes. "Hellhound!" she said while reaching for her bow.

"No! Stop!" Fang tried to yell, but was interrupted by Mrs. O'Leary's vigorous licking.

Sabrina heard Fang one second before she shot the arrow that was in her bow, the look of fear still on her face. "Why!? It's a hellhound!"

"Because," Annabeth explained, "She's like the camp's pet, mainly Percy's though. She did belong to Daedleus, but..."

She dropped her bow, but continued to eye the hellhound warily. "Wait, you mean that inventor who built the Labranyth thousands of years ago?"

Annabeth nodded. "Yep, he's the one."

Fang pushed O'Leary off of him, and she rolled over so that Fang could scratch her belly. "She's just lonely because Percy isn't here."

Sabrina raised her eyebrows. "Wait, Percy has a pet Hellhound?!"

"Yeah," Fang added, "she's attached to him, though she'll settle for me or maybe Nico when he's not around."

Sabrina hesitently sat back down, one hand craddling her head. "I thought that I was done being confused for the day..." Sabrina trailed of, because the Apollo cabin had made their way down to the front of the camp fire.

Zach swung out a lyre like it was a electric guitar. "Alright peeps," he announced, "It's time for the Weapons Song!" He and some others began playing the lyre to the tune of the Alphabet song.

"I thought we weren't going to do that one," a girl whispered to Siria.

"Well, it's too late now," Siria muttered back. She sighed, and began singing off weapons for each letter of the alphabet in ancient Greek, followed by the rest of the Apollo cabin and a lot of the older campers.

Sabrina looked confused, the shocked. "Wait, how can I understand what they are saying? I know they are not speaking in english, but that is the only language I know..."

"All demigods are hardwired for ancient Greek," Annabeth explained. "That's why your dyslexic."

"Wait, I never told you that I was dyslexic..." Sabrina said, looking shocked.

"Just about all demigods are dyslexic," Annabeth laughed. "It's because we're hardwired to read Greek too."

Sabrina looked thoughtful for a moment. "Wait, are most demigods ADHD to, or am I the only one?"

"Yep, that's what keeps us alive in battle. Some of us are more ADHD than others though..."

"Let me guess, your referring to Leo, right?"

"Yeah, and Percy ranks second."

Sabrina laughed at that. "You know, I never thought that I would see Siria singing silly campfire songs..."

"Apollo cabin tradition!" Annabeth laughed.

"Better her than me," Fang muttered.

"Well, I'm glad I'm not in the Apollo cabin..."

Dreams
After the campfire, Fang flew to his cabin. As soon as he fell asleep, the dream hit him.

At first, there was nothing but darkness and the sound of a woman wailing. Fang squinted and made out a woman on her knees, begging pitifully, although he could not make out the words. "Hey, are you okay?" He moved towards the woman, but then the scene dissolved in front of him. A green light penatrated the darkness, followed by more torches of Greek fire.

Fang hestitently walked done the torch lit cavern. Before him opened up Hades' throne room. Hades sat on his throne, but he bent down with a slight smile on his face to talk to a beautiful woman with long black hair.

"So that's the statis report," she finished. After a brief pause she tilted her head up to Hades. "Thank you," she said finally.

Hades seemed taken back. "For what?"

"For finding me. Without you, I would have never became the Oracle," she answered, like it was obvious. "Well, it's late, I better be getting back..."

"No!" Hades jumped out of his seat, swiftly moving up beside her. He caressed her head, and spoke gently, "It's too dangerous to leave now. Stay here."

"Okay," she replied hestitantly. She looked him in the face and smiled.

The image dissolved away, and Fang saw himself in a bedroom-like room in the Underworld. Hades was there, with his wife Persephone. Instinctly, Fang pressed himself against the wall, but then he realized that they couldn't see him anyways.

The woman burst into the room, panting. She straightened when she saw Persephone, but distress still clouded her eyes. "I need to talk with Lord Hades, alone."

Hades motioned Persephone away. She narrowed her eyes at the woman, but strode out of the room without a word.

The woman came close to Hades, and barely whispered, "I'm pregnant."

Hades' eyes shot open in alarm. "We have to hide you," he decided.

"But-" she started to protest, Hades silenced her.

"This is my fault," he stated, "I'm going to fix this."

Fang sighed as the image dissolved yet again before him. This time, he was flying in the air, looking down on the woman running fast, looking back often like something was chasing her. Two bundles were in her arms. Fang squinted, and realized in alarm that they were babies.

A figure moved out of the shadows, cutting her off. The woman shrank back, but the blond haired woman assured her, "It's okay, I'll help you hide them." The Oracle met her gray eyes and nodded, following her into the darkness.

Fang realized that that was Athena. This is confusing..., he thought. He followed the ladies, hovering above them in the air. A bolt of lightning nearly blasted Fang out of the sky. It brushed past him and struck right in front of the woman. Fang remembered that the lightning couldn't hurt him, but it could hurt her, and he couldn't help feeling that he was somehow connected to her.

Zeus appeared out of the lightning strike. Hera appeared behind him. "It's over!" he roared.

She shrank back, falling to her knees. "Take me, but don't hurt my children!" she pleaded.

Hades stepped out of the shadows. He dipped his head in gratitude towards Athena, then moved to intercept Zeus and the girl. "Don't hurt her," he growled.

"She must be punished!" Zeus roared. He turned to Apollo, who just appeared in a flash of light. "Isn't it true that the Oracle is forbidden to know love or have children?"

Sorrow clouded Apollo's eyes as he slowly nodded.

Zeus shoved Hades aside and thrust a lightning bolt towards the woman, who bowed her head and accepted the hit. He turned to Apollo and Hera, and left the scene before anything else was said.

Hades knelt before the lifeless body of the woman. "Where are the children?" he asked feebly.

Athena motioned to the corner, where she had swiftly hid them away. "No child should be be killed for the sins of their parents."

He picked up the children. "I will always remember your kindness. Her name shall be Olive, after you. He will be named what his mother wished, Josh."

Grief flooded Athena's gray eyes. "You know they can't stay here, right?"

Hades nodded, then set them down. They babies melted into the shadows, and the pair walked away.

Fang had watched the scene in horror. But before he could process it, he saw Zeus appear again. This time, he looked straight at Fang, like he wasn't supposed to be there. The wind tossed Fang around, and lightning struck a hair-length's away.

Hazel woke up to a noise. Instinctly, she reached for her gladius that was set at her bedside. But the noise she heard came from Fang. He thrashed in bed, and beads of sweat were dotted across his forehead. She reached to wake him up, but then thought that she might make him miss an important message.

Already awake, she strode out of the cabin and walked down the row, going to pass the cabins of the minor goddesses.

Suddenly, the Airis cabin door burst open. Sabrina was standing in the doorway looking startled, like she had heard something. She gripped her bow tightly in her hand, an arrow notched. When she saw Hazel, she lowered her bow, looking a little sheepish. "Sorry, I thought I heard something. I have been a little paronoid tonight..." She said, looking down at her bow.

"It's okay," Hazel assured her. "Fang just woke me up, so I thought I'd go for a walk."

Sabrina looked puzzled. "Why did Fang wake you up?"

"He must of been having a dream. He was thrashing all around," Hazel replied.

"Is he okay?" Sabrina said worriedly.

Hazel shook her head. "I really don't know. Demigods can have some pretty intense dreams sometimes..."

Sabrina looked a little worried, probably because at the thought of having a dream like that. "Well, enjoy your walk," Sabrina said, yawning and turning back to enter her cabin.

All of a sudden the ground shook. A loud crack sounded in the distance.

Sabrina whipped her head around. "What was that?"

"I don't know, but it came from this way," Hazel ran towards the Big House.

When they arrived, giant shards of rock jutted out of the ground.

"How did that happen?" Sabrina said as she notched an arrow in her bow.

Hazel bit her lip. "It looks like something Fang or Nico could have done..." she trailed off, thinking something.

"Wait, one of the girls that was rescued looks a lot like a child of Hades. Do you think..." Sabrina trailed off.

"Olive..." Hazel breathed. She ran inside, to see Olive writhing in her bed, beads of sweat rolling down her face.

Sabrina reached the door, looking worried for Olive. "Is she okay?"

"She looks just like Fang did, except worse. I wonder if they're having the same dream," Hazel commented.

Sabrina looked perplexed. "That can happen?"

"Dreams to us can be visions or visitations. More than one demigod can be meant to receive the same dream. I just wonder what it is."

"I wonder what made her make the rock come up from the ground..."

Olive bolted upright, breathing heavy. "That was horrible..." she whispered to herself.

Sabrina walked over to the bed, glancing down at Olive with concern in her eyes. "What was horrible?"

Olive nearly jumped out of her skin. "Oh, I didn't know you were there. I just had this dream. In it, this fog got lifted, and I remembered everything. But then, other memories flooded over me, and Hera wanted to kill me, and, and, and..." she faltered.

"Why did Hera want to kill you?"

"I was a mistake..." She stared at her feet.

"What do you mean you were a mistake?"

"I wasn't supposed to be born for some reason. I mean, it was bad enough that Hades was my father, but something about my mom having kids was wrong. Zeus...killed her, but me and a... brother survived."

"Wait, you have a brother?!" Sabrina exclaimed.

"Yeah... his name was Josh. But, I was raised from foster home to foster home. I always thought my family was dead, until I found out I was a halfblood. That's when I wrecked on Circe's island, and lost to her cronies, and they converted me over." Olive shuddered.

Sabrina glanced over at Hazel. "Do you think that Fang may be, you know..."

Before Hazel could answer, Fang flew into the room. "Olive, I think you are my sis-" He stopped when he saw that Sabrina and Hazel were in the room. "Er, this is awkward..."

"Yeah..." Sabrina agreed.

Olive looked long and hard at Fang. "I think your right. You seem... familiar somehow."

He nodded. "I had a dream, and I think I saw my- our mother. She was the Oracle, and wasn't supposed to have kids, so Zeus and Hera killed her. Athena saved us though, so Hades named the girl, you, Olive. That's when I figured it out."

"Hades sure does have all the luck..." Hazel muttered.

Sabrina looked surprised. "Wait. This has happened before?"

Fang and Hazel nodded solemnly. "After Nico and Bianca were born," Hazel explained, "The Oracle gave the Great Prophecy, so Zeus ordered Hades to send his children to Camp Halfblood. Hades and Maria, their mother, didn't, fearing what Zeus would do to them. However, after the wait, Zeus got impatient and struck a lightning at the building they were staying in. Maria died, but Hades was able to save the children."

"Well, that's nice..." Sabrina muttered.

"Yeah..." Fang sighed.

Over on the other side of the room, Percy groaned. "Could you keep it down! I'm trying to sleep. I don't know about you, but I had one heck of a day."

"What's this about Fang having a sister?" Crystal asked, raising her head.

"Long story short, when I was born, I had a twin," Fang said briefly.

Percy turned over to favor his injury. "I feel you," he murmered.

"Well, if you could try to be a little quieter, I was trying to sleep. Being shot in the stomach with an arrow isn't the most pleasent thing in the world..." Crystal said, collapsing back on the bed.

"Tell me about it," Percy agreed.

"Well, come on," Fang motioned to Olive. "We gotta be ready to face tomorrow, so we should really get some more sleep."
