Where'd the Girls Go?

I was sitting on the couch in the big house with Nico, then Will sitting next to me.
"So Maggie, have you ever heard of the Greek gods?"
Chiron said.
"Yeah, I know all about them. Nico told me I'm a half-blood and sense my mother was a mortal that means my dad is a Greek god."
I say.
"Yes, the sayters told me your mom died. They couldn't figure out why though. Care to enlighten us?"
"It's a long story."
"We have plenty of time dear."
"It's a painful story."
Seeing the look of pain in my face, Chiron dropped the subject and asked Nico and Will to give me a tour of the camp, and get me fitted for a weapon. We headed outside and Nico and Will gave me the full tour.
"First up, we have he dining pavilion. It's where we eat all our meals. There's a table for each of the gods and that's where their children sit. The only people who sit at the tables that aren't their parents are me and my friends Percy, Annabeth, Frank, Hazel, Jason, Piper, Leo, Will, and Theo who sit at the big three table. Since I saved you from the monster, you'll sit at the big three table until your claimed."
I nodded my head to show him I understood.
"Then, we have the volleyball court, forest, archery range, arena, and beach."
will said. And finishing the tour Nico said
" And here are the cabins. They're just like the tables but cabins instead. Now let's go get you tested for a weapon."
We walked over to the arena where there were rows and rows of different weapons.
"So, pick two kinds of weapons and we'll test out your skills out."
Said Will.
"Okay, I pick a sword and bow."
Nico handed me a sword and said chuckling
"I'll test your natural skill with a sword since Will couldn't win a fight against a beginner to save his life, and Will will teach you how to fire a bow."
He unsheathed his own sword that I recognized as Stygian iron and said
"On three. One, two, three."
He lunged for my chest but I blocked the strike with my own sword. Then I lunged for him and he blocked my hit. We went on like this for a few minutes and I knew it would take more than strength to beat him. I had to out wit him. So when he came in for a strike to my legs, I front flipped over his sword and while I was in the air I thrust my sword at his making it fly several yards away. I then landed and put the tip of my sword to his throat.
"How's that for a beginner?"
"While you're better than average."
Nico said with a smirk on his face. The crowd that had gathered wile Nico and I were fighting, consisted of about fifty campers that all. went wild. They all cheered for a minute or two then went back to their activities as their instructors ordered them to.
"So should we go to the Hephaestus cabin and have them make you a custom sword?"
Asked Nico.
"Sure."
I replied.
On our way to the Hephaestus cabin Will asked me if I had any more questions before dinner.
"Yeah."
I said.
"How do half-bloods get claimed?"
Will replied,
"Well, each god has their own mark of symbol that indicates their children. For example since I'm an Apollo kid, I got claimed with a golden aura surrounding me. Nico got claimed with a skull and crossbones over his head, so on and so forth."
"So when will I be claimed?"
"Well your thirteen now so by your next birthday which is-?"
"October 28."
"October 28 you'll be claimed."
We got to the cabin and Nico knocked on the door. A small Latino boy with bright, curious brow eyes opened it.
"Hey Nico, Will! What can I do for you?"
"We have a new camper here, her names Maggie, and she needs a sword."
"Yeah she already beat Nico."
Leo responds to Wills comment with a smirk,
"Dang girl, I can tell we're gonna be friends. Wha kind of sword do you want?"
I think about it for a moment and then said
"I want it to be Stygian iron, and engraved around the top of the hilt I want the letters NT."
They all give me a questioning look, probably wondering what NT stands for, but they can tell from the look on my face not to ask.
"Okay, it'll be ready after dinner."
Leo says, breaking the silence. We all mutter our thanks and then a bell rings.
"Time for dinner."
Will and Nico say in unison, and we all run over to the dinning pavilion. I beat them both there, and they come running in about ten seconds after me with shocked looks on their faces.
"She's like superwoman!"
Said Will catching his breath.
We laugh and then sit down at the big three table. We're the first ones at the table so we get our pick of seats. Will and Nico sit on the bench across from me and Will puts his arm around Nico.
Slowly the rest of the campers start sitting down including everybody else that sits at the big three table. Nine more people arrive at the table and all start buzzing with conversation, talking about their day until about five seconds in a girl with blond hair and gray eyes asks Nico,
"Who's this?"
Pointing at me.
All the conversation stops as soon as Nico says
"This is Maggie, unclaimed. And Maggie this is Percy, son of Poseidon. Annabeth, daughter of Athena. Jason, son of Jupiter. Piper, daughter of Aphrodite. Frank, son of Mars. Hazel, daughter of Pluto. Leo, son of Hephaestus, whom you meant earlier. Calypso. And the newest addition to the big three table, Theo, son of Poseidon."
They all waved and included me in the conversation as I studied their faces looking for a physical feature to remember them by. The one face that really caught my eye was Theo's. He had tan skin that made him look like he was at the beach all day, and dark, shaggy hair a little bit lighter than Percy's. The thing that really captured my attention, was his eyes. They were big, dark teal, and filled with a look of curiosity, and hope. His eyes were the exact opposite of mine.
I jerk back to attention when plates clatter in front of everybody's seat, and filled with whatever food they desired as well as mine. On my plate appeared French toast, and cardamom tea. But don't get it wrong, the food in front of everybody didn't stop the talking. I ate while thinking about who my father could be when Theo who's sitting next to me says
"You know, I don't think you realize how pretty you are."
"How many girls do you say that to each day, and how many of them are your girlfriends?"
I sassily say back, assuming he's just some player.
"Actually I don't have a girlfriend, I don't really have any friends either."
He says with a shrug.
"I'm a loner too."
I reply. Theo opens his mouth like he's going to say something more but Chiron stomps a hoof on the floor to get everyone's attention and says
"Alright everybody, settle down. Tonight we only have one announcement and it is a new camper."
Everybody cranes their heads trying to figure out who it is.
"Maggie will you please come up here?"
I get up from my spot next to Theo and walk down to where Chiron is standing, and immediately start to feel like I'm going to throw up with everybody's eyes on me. I stand next to Chiron and he starts to introduce me,
"This is Maggie, she just got here today, and is thirteen and unclaim-"
He gets interrupted by Apollos golden aura surrounding me, and Hades skull and crossbones over my head. But that's not all. All the campers gasp as no other, than Apollo, and Hades themselves, appear next to me.
