My parents die cool
I didn’t want to be a halfblood but here we are…My name is Merit and i’m a halfblood “yay” it may seem like a dream come true but not for me!
Let’s start at the beginning it was midnight and I was lying in my bed, then I smelt it Fire! I tried running to the door to try and wake up my parents but when I got into the hallway I saw fire everywhere.
I saw my mom in the hallway “Mom!” I yelled as I tried running towards her but then a a support beam fell in between us and it was on fire!
“Merit!” my mom yelled as she was crying I felt tears running down my cheeks. “I’m so sorry sweetie there’s nothing I can do now…” she took of her ring it was this silver ring with a blueish greenish gem on it. It was specifically the moonstone ring she always wore
”take it, and run out the window and it will show you the way!” I stood there confused what did she mean? Why wasn’t she going to come with me?
“NOW!” She yelled.
I ran out my room and grabbed my emergency bag ( yes I have that I am very anxious about everything) and a my old otter and I jumped out my window. Stuffed animal
CRACK!
I felt my arm snap but there was no time to look at it. What did my mom mean by the ring? What does it will show you the way mean?
I climbed out the window, jumping of my roof. As I muttered “Shit… I think my arm is broken” I saw that this beam of moonlight hit the ring. The ring had its own beam of how strange…
I had no time to think about it and I started to run in the direction of the beam I kept running no matter how much my arm hurt no matter how scared I was. I ran as fast as I could, I ran for what felt like hours.
Then I came to this hill, With a dragon?!? “I must be hallucinating”
then I heard of voice “Over here I think it’s a person!”
Then everything blacked out….
When I woke up I was in a strange place? It looked like a nurses office. I sat up I looked around and my arm started to sting?! Oww
I tried to stand up I almost slipped and would have fallen if not for this teenage boy. Then I saw it he had goat legs!
“Oh my god why is there a goat in your pants!”
He smiled then sayed. “I’m a saytar!” He helped me sit back down on the cott.
“like in Greek mythology?”
“Exactly” he replied
“but uh…. how?”
”in easy terms the Greek gods are real. And there are things such as demigods or half bloods as some say and blah blah blah blah blah blah something something something something something something Blah something about how the gods have kids blah blah blah something something something”
then as this saytar was going on a rant this really pretty girl walked in she had curly blonde hair and stormy gray eyes.
“Grover let this girl process everything first ok”
sigh “ok Annabeth…”
the next few days were a blur because all I did was stay in this nurses office place. I met different people which was not my cup of tea don’t get me wrong I kinda like having friends and stuff but I’m an introvert which means it’s hard for me sometimes.
when I was just resting this teenage guy walked in he had black hair and these green eyes which were supppppper green it was kinda weird ngtl,
”Hi I’m Percy what’s your name?” Percy asked
“Merit” I replied
“you are going to be leaving the camp nurses office today!”
I didn’t reply after everything that happened to my parents, specifically my mom. My father could go to hell. I just did not feel okay, nothing was okay I was in a new place? Apparently I was a demigod? I just couldn’t…
“ ..I’m going to be your to tour guy today to show you around camp!”
I nodded and squeezed my otter stuffed animal close to my chest.
Percy then gave me some clothes, it was a bright orange shirt
“great” I mumbled I just HATE the color orange. It’s quite literally one of the worst colors ever
He must have noticed me cringe ”We kinda have to wear these shirts at camp I noticed he was also wearing one it said camp halfblood.
