Dust and Gold
The next day
So Percy discovered an entry into the labyrinth, and let me say, my brain blew up right then. I think I passed out for a moment.
Since I had barely any luggage, except a change of clothes and a hairbrush, Travis got me some stuff from the camp store.
Every piece of clothing there was orange, ok not everything but pretty much.
I got a pajama set which the shirt said "The 12 gods are real" on it and was in dark blue and the shorts were sky blue. I got ready for bed, I tucked my hair up in my beanie like I did sometimes when I slept in the great outdoors.
I rolled out the sleeping bag he gave me in a small space at the corner, which Alexia provided me by moving some of her stuff.
"Why do you wear that beanie? It's not cold, like at all."
"Why does it matter?"I responded.
"Just wondering, does it have sentimental value or something?" She asked,
"I've had this beanie for like ever," I answered, which was true. I really did have this beanie since before my earliest memory, since I don't really remember anything from before I was 5. I always felt like I had to wear it, like a small voice in the back of my mind telling me to wear it, that it would protect me and stuff.
"Ah ok, well goodnight." She turned over into her sleeping bag.
That night I could barely sleep, and when I finally did, I had a dream. Now you must be wondering" Why does that bother you? Well I have 2 words to tell you!
Dreams SUCK.
I was hovering over a boat, not just any boat, a cruise ship.
It was completely deserted except for a huge golden box, a sarcophagus. A deep evil voice suddenly boomed in my head. My blood froze, not because I was scared, but because I recognized it.
"Callie Schmit... Join me, or your new family will have just as a terrible fate as the last..." It said. A million thoughts zoomed through my mind: My last name was Schmit? I actually had a family? Who were they? Why don't I remember them?.
"All your questions will be answered soon..." The voice said, with a slight evil chuckle at the end. That's when I woke up in cold sweat. The sun had just risen and Alexia was waking me up.
"You ok? You started mumbling 'Stop" and 'Go away' in your sleep." She said.
"Yeah I'm fine..." I responded I am totally not 'Fine'.
That was one of many lies I said that day. There was free time in the morning where we didn't have any activities so I kind of just walked around, trying to convinse myself that this is real and that I'm not dead, or dreaming.
I decided to go to sit next to the lake when something threw me into the lake. I looked back and saw a contraption that reminded me of a catapult under the ground, and 2 kids laughing next to it.
And I was pissed, and soaked.
I got out of the water and started heading to the kids before Alexia came and grabbed my arm and dragged me behind a tree. Of course I was protesting the whole time.
