Starting Over

Okay? What did I say? Every one was laughing like crazy people. I looked around to see that Percy was bent over laughing and Annabeth was trying to keep him up while giggling herself. Leo and Calypso were holding their mouths trying suppress their wild laughing. I saw Grover was slapping his knee and looked like he was loosing his voice. Brandon was bent over trying not to cry. I crossed my arms and huffed not understanding why everyone was laughing at my question. Chiron and Tyler were the only ones who were not laughing like maniacs, but they had huge grins. Tyler was poking my arms trying to get me to uncross them. "Fiona, our dad's ability has nothing to do with our appearances." "Well, why couldn't someone just say that in the first place!" "Because you're adorable," he chuckled. That's Tyler for you.

Chiron managed to get the camp calmed down and dismissed the campfire. Brandon led us over too our new cabin with my new half siblings. Our cabin was simple-ish. I loved it. The walls weren't painted but the celling had a sun with arrows flying across it painted on the celling. The front of the cabin had different bow and arrows on hooks with names on them. There was also some instruments and music sheets scattered. In the back, there were bunk beds separated by a curtain. Girls' bunks were on the right and the boys' were on the left. Brandon had told us that in the morning we would get weapons. I was excited and a little bit nervous. "Tyler, I can get a weapon too right?" He gave a sarcastic smile and beamed, "I guess so." I stared to jump, causing my new half sisters to go awe. I began to yawn and the girls tucked me into a top bunk. I was so happy to have a real bed that I fell asleep in no time.

I woke up in pajamas with rainbows all over them. I turned around to see a note that was taped to my bunk. I opened it and it was written in some frilly handwriting. It read: Hey Fiona! I hope that you like the pajamas. It took us a while to find them. Some of you sister and I dressed you so last night and tucked you in. You sleep like a rock girl! There is a change of clothes at the end of the bed for you. Tyler said to meet up with him, Percy and Annabeth at the Big House when you get dressed. See ya later! -love Marry. I had to give Marry a big thank you later. I got the clothes; an orange tee that said Camp Half-Blood, light denim capris and black slides, and left took a shower. I got dressed, brushed my hair and went to go and find Tyler.

I found Annabeth, Percy, and Tyler by the big house. Tyler was wearing an orange tee like mines(and everyone else here at this camp) with jeans and sneakers. I ran up to him and gave him a big hug. He hugged me back and I exchanged greetings with Percy and Annabeth. Annabeth began to talk to us about our weapons. "Usually, Apollo's kids are skilled with bow and arrows. How good are you guys with them?" I wanted to cry. Tyler answered for us. "We never had the chance to try. Our mom never let us when we asked." The truth was that Tyler got beat up for asking Mother if we could do archery. She hated us and did everything in the world to keep us from having fun. "Well lets go see know." We walked down to what they called the arena. This camp was getting more and more awesome. We walked over to where they kept the weapons and began to look for bow and arrow sets

Tyler had no problems with finding his bow and arrow set. Most of them were built for kids his age. Campers averaged from twelve and up so no one had to worry about building small weapons. Every bow I tried was too big, too heavy or both and I was about to give up until I saw something that caught my eye. A sun beam shot down and shone on a small bow and small arrows. It was the perfect size and height for me. I choose this one and no one objected. We walked over to where the targets were and began to test our skills. I could tell that pure instinct took over Tyler as he drew and arrow, set it up and began to fire at the targets.

Tyler had shoot five bulls eyes in a row. I had set my arrow up and herd some laughter and turned to face it. Two boys were laughing at me and pointing. "Oh wow! Shouldn't you guys get the little baby a Nerf arrow?" I don't even think the kids bright enough to hold a bow!" "Oh Yea! Didn't she think that because her daddy's Apollo that she should have light hair?" I screamed at them. "You bullies leave me alone!" Annabeth spoke up too. "Matt, John, get lost!" They just laughed some more. "I don't know Matt, maybe she's right. Maybe Apollo isn't her real dad." Show them. Prove them wrong. Something was speaking to me from inside of me and I was listening to it. I raised my bow and arrow, took a deep breath and fired. The arrow landed in John's arm and knocked him down. Silence. Matt began to run. I ran after him. I set up another arrow. While running after him.

We began to run all over camp. He was running scared and was not looking back. I had gotten close enough to him to fire and hit him exactly where I wanted to. I fired and my arrow hit him directly in the back of his knee cap. Bulls eye. He fell forward and I ran up to set myself right in front of him. I removed the arrow and kicked him over. Fear was in his eyes. I set up and arrow and pointed it at his head. He close his eyes. I shot...........right next to his head. He opened his eyes and looked at me. I spoke with a calmness that I hadn't recognized. "Never. Mess. With. Me. Again." I made my bow point at his head. "Are. We. Clear?" "Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-yes." He stuttered.

Tyler dragged me through the crowd(when did they get there?). I wouldn't face him. I had never ever acted out like that. I knew I should of just ignored them. Tyler pulled my head up and I saw that he was...smiling? "You're not mad me?" I asked. He chuckled and responded, "Fiona, I am proud of you. That, that right there," he pointed to Matt, who was on a stretcher, "was some amazing talent. Fiona, I'm proud of you. You stood up for yourself." Percy, Annabeth, Leo and Calypso came running up to us. In unison they asked what had happened. I told them and they all had jaws down to the ground. "Those Hermes kids deserved it," a deep voice that I didn't recognized said. All of a sudden, a boy in a black tee, black denim jacket and black...well everything except for his skin. He had olive skin.

"Nico! What are you doing here? I thought you were with Hazel, Jason, Piper, Frank and Reyna fixing up New Rome?" Percy asked. I would ask for an explanation later. Nico said, "I was. I came back for a little while. I came back in time to see the little episode with those kids and, Fiona right?" "Yea. This is my brother Tyler. We just got here yesterday." He didn't look shocked, which made me feel better. "Cool. Taking into account of what I just saw, I'm going to assume Apollo kids?" "Yea. Not bad for my first time picking up a bow right?" He just shrugged. Tyler put both of his hands on my shoulders. I could tell Nico kind of freaked him out. I liked him though. He was like a walking shadow.

Leo broke in. "Well if you think that was good, you should of seen last night! She was actually adorable." He told the story and when he finished, Nico was smirking. "Wow. If it makes you feel better, when I was your age we never would of thought that we were the children of Hades." "We? Do you have a sibling?" At this point, Percy and Annabeth had lost the color in their faces and were shooting me a warning look. I didn't catch on. "Yes and no. I have a younger sister, Hazel, and had an older sister, Bianca." It hit me. "Nico? Is-is your last name Di' Angelo?" I asked? I thought every one was going to faint. Nico was looking suspicious. "Yes. Why?" I smiled. "A girl at my school told me something. She would say it to me everyday. Only two little sentence. It was, 'Tell Nico that I said hi and that I miss him and that I will always love him. And tell him that Bianca Di' Angelo said it.'" Every face drained of color. Great, my big old mouth did it again.
