“Hey, sis.” Thalia, my sister said. I glanced out the window and saw that it was pitch black. “Is there a reason you had to wake me up at midnight?” She bit her lip. “Thalia, please tell me you were not serious about running away.” She lowered her head. Even though I’m two years younger than her I have complete control over her in these type of things.
 “Ohmigosh, Thalia! Seriously?” “Jessica Destiny Grace. Please?” She did her puppy eyes at me. I groaned. She knows I can’t resist her. Plus, whenever she uses my full name I know she really wants it. “Fine, just let me get my bag.” I have a bag full of stuff I might need: food, a towel, a water bottle, flashlight, my bow and arrow bracelet(which turns into a bow and arrow if you pull it), my locket (Which has no use, it’s just pretty), my sharpie(Which turns into a sword when you uncap it), and my blue rose ring(Which also has no use).
 We ran out of the house and before long I saw a Minotaur. “Thalia, stop unless you want to be killed.” I whispered stopping. “What… Oh.” I pulled my bracelet and it became a bow and arrow. I pulled the string back and it hit the Minotaur in the chest. It looked at the arrow in confusion before crumbling to dust. “Not bad, Jess.” “I’m the best in my archery class for a reason Thalia.”
  We started walking again and Thalia smacked into a boy with blonde hair and blue eyes. They fell to the ground with Thalia on top. “You two okay?” I said trying to not laugh. Thalia sent me a look that said Shut up or I’ll kill you. Thalia quickly got up her face red. The blonde guy did too. “Luke Castellan…” “I’m Thalia Grace and this is my sister Jessica.”
 “So, Luke. Believe in gods?” I asked and then mentally face-palmed myself. Sure Jessica, REAL subtle. “Olympic gods? I’m a half-blood like you two.” Luke said. “How do you know?” I asked suspiciously. “I’m awesome.” He smirked. I studied him to see if this was true. He showed no signs of lying. I nodded at Thalia. “Okay, I’m going to go find us some wood for a fire.” Thalia said. Once Thalia was out of earshot I said, “You’re hiding something.” “Am not!” “Yeah you are. It’s not easy to find out but I can tell.” “How?” “My father’s Zeus. Who’s your parent?” “Hermes. What does this have to do with anything?” “You don’t like your father do you?” “No. He left me with my mother and she would scare me so I ran away.” “You want to get revenge don’t you?” I asked. “Sort of.” “Got some!” Thalia said dropping wood at our feet. “Stand back.” Luke and I backed up and Thalia called some lightning. The lightning hit the wood and ta da! we have a fire. “Impressive. Can Jessica do that?” Luke asked. “Um, I am her sister?” I said. “Hey Jess? Can you get us some food?” Thalia asked.  I pulled my bracelet and it became my bow and arrow. I aimed at a deer and thwack!  it hit. “We got food.” I said. “You have good aim.” Luke commented. “Exactly.” I said. “She’s never missed a target before, moving or still.” Thalia said. “So don’t make me mad. I won’t hesitate to shoot you.”
 Pretty soon we had eaten and were deciding who was going to take the first shift. “Not me. I haven’t slept in a week.” Luke said. “Fine, I will then. I’m the only person who thought to bring a weapon.” I sighed. “Hey!” Thalia and Luke said at the same time causing them to look at each other and then look away. “What? You know it’s true.” Luke groaned but Thalia got her backpack and fell asleep quickly. Just as Luke was about to do the same thing I stopped him. “Okay, before you go to sleep we are going to finish our conversation whether you like it or not.” “Fine.” I looked into Luke’s eyes and saw sadness mixed into his angry expression. “Gods are not allowed to interfere with their children you know.” “I do know but he just left me without anything to do with me.” Luke said bitterly. “I’m sorry. But remember you can tell me anything. Even though I’m younger than you by two years.” “Now, can I go to sleep or are you going to keep me up all night?” “Enjoy your sleep. You get the shift after me.” “Of course I do.”
Luke grumbled. He did what Thalia did and quickly fell asleep. Before ten minutes had passed I heard a noise. I quickly got my bow and arrow out and pointed it in the direction of the sound. “Show yourself!” I said. A 5 ft. tall man walked out of the bushes. It looked at me and that’s when I noticed it only had one eye. “A Cyclopes. Wonderful.” I grumbled pulling back the string of my bow. It was too fast for me though. It grabbed me and threw me into a tree. “What?” Thalia said waking up. “Help me.” I said faintly before everything went black.
   “What happened?” I asked waking up. “Luke! She’s awake.” Thalia called. “You were thrown into a tree and you passed out.” “Where is it?” “Thalia and I killed it.” Luke must have seen my disappointed face because he added, “You’re only ten. Thalia and I feel like we need to protect you because we’re older.” “But why are so many monsters coming for me and Thalia?” I asked.
“I don’t know.” Luke admitted. “It might be because we’re daughters of Zeus.” Thalia suggested. “Yeah, it might be.” Luke said. “So people want to kill us because Zeus is our father? How nice of them.” I said sarcastically. “Sure is.” Thalia agreed. “Let’s keep moving.” Luke said. “We don’t want to attract any more monsters.” “Too late for that.” Thalia said. I followed her gaze and saw a minatoar. “But we killed it!” Thalia protested. I sent her a glare and she said, “I mean Jessica killed it.”
“Thank you.” I said satisfied. “Stop arguing and kill it!” Luke yelled. “Fine!” I got out my bow and arrow and shot the Minotaur. “There, satisfied?”  “Yes now let’s go.” Luke said. We walked a while before we got to an old house. “We have to go in.” Thalia stopped us. “Why?” Luke asked. “I agree with Thalia. There’s something in there that we need to get.” I said.
 “Fine then!” Luke groaned. We walked towards the house and “Of course, it’s locked.” I said. “Luke?” Thalia pleaded. “I really regret telling you that.” Luke said waving his hand over the door knob. “Unlocked.” “Thanks!” I grinned. Thalia opened the door and we walked in. A little while later after Thalia got a bracelet-shield thing  and WE ALMOST GOT KILLED BECAUSE OF GREEK FIRE we got out of the house.
  We kept on walking until we heard a noise in an alley. “On three.” Luke whispered. “1,2,3.” He pushed aside a box and a blonde-haired girl flew out at him. “Whoa, don’t kill me.” He grabbed her wrist and set her down. “Monsters,  monsters!” She whimpered. “It’s okay. We see them too.” I said. “You do?” She asked doubtfully. “We need to keep going. There’s a place we can stay not too far from here.” Thalia said. “Let’s go then. Oh, by the way, I’m Jessica, this is Luke, and this is Thalia my sister.” I said. “I’m Annabeth.”
  Pretty soon we made it to a gate. “Thalia Grace and Jessica Grace. Die!” A cyclopes yelled. “No you idiot! Jessica Grace is needed by Zeus.” Another Cyclopes said. “Well, they’re friendly.” I said sarcastically. “You guys go. I’ll hold them back.” Thalia said. “No way! I’m fighting with you.” I said. “No Jessica. You go back.” Thalia said. “No!” I yelled. “You heard her, Jessica!” Luke grabbed me and ran just before Thalia was thrown into the ground. “Thalia!” Annabeth and I screamed.
  “You two go. I’ll help Thalia.” I said. Luke grabbed Annabeth and ran through the gate. I saw Thalia and she turned into a tree? “Thank you father. Let her live.” I said. Suddenly a hand picked me up and I was unconscious.
  I woke up and found myself in a dark place, I think. “She’s too powerful! She needs to die!” A voice said. “No, wipe her memories and give her to my friends, the Weasley’s.” Another voice said. “What?” I asked. Someone came over with a needle and I was unconscious again.
