So, I've finally decided it was time to write my own half-blood story and... here it is! Please tell me what you think about it :D
I glanced around, looking for a good hiding place. I spotted a huge tree with lots of branches. Easy enough to climb on. I was out of breath, but I ran to it as quickly as I could, focusing on my goal.
I reached for the lowest branch and hauled myself up, using the protuberances on the trunk as a footrest. I still wasn’t high enough. I grabbed another thick branch and managed to sit on it. I kept on climbing until I was about ten feet off the ground. I took a deep breath and hoped the creature wouldn’t notice me.
It had been following me for three days now. It wasn’t the first I came across: there had been other ones, during the past month.
I had run from home exactly 48 days before. I’d kept track of them. I closed my eyes and a mental picture of what I’d left behind came back to me. The small apartment in which I lived with my dad, my stepmom and my little sister Serena. I missed them all. But what I’d done had been necessary to protect them. Monsters had started attacking me, and I didn’t want to put my family in danger.
A growl brought me back to reality. The Thing was getting closer. I held my breath praying for it to ignore me. A few seconds later, the creature came into view. Now that I had the time to take a look at it, I noticed how much it resembled a dog. If you ignored its rhino-size, it could’ve been a black mastiff with bloody red eyes. It sniffed around, trying to detect my position. I tightened my grip on the small dagger that had become my most trusted ally during the past weeks. The world seemed to slow down, as if it were in slow motion. Every single breath I took seemed to last hours, my heart pounding so hard I was sure the creature was going to hear it, sooner or later.
The huge dog stopped for a second. It seemed to hesitate, wondering what to do next. Maybe I’d hidden myself well, after all. I was about to sigh with relief when the mastiff turned, burying its red eyes mine. A huge void suddenly took the place of my heart, as my eyes widened with fear. Everything was over. I couldn’t escape, this time. That overgrown pet was going to kill me. I tried to swallow the lump in my throat, but it was no use. I held onto my dagger so hard my knuckles where white.
The creature charged, and the sound of its paws hitting the soil seemed to come from a distance. It was only a couple of feet away when a shadow emerged from the branches of a not very distant tree. It jumped on the monster and thrust a thin silvery sword at the base of the creature’s neck. The giant mastiff turned to dust and my rescuer fell hard onto the ground.
I climbed quickly climbed down, and noticed the boy had already pulled himself up.
“You ok?” I asked.
“Sure. I jump off trees every day.” He smiled. He was tall and slim, his dark hair falling on his forehead in messy curls. His honey eyes scanned the area, obviously looking for something “There’s my sword!” He said when he finally spotted the blade he’d ran through the monster’s body. As he turned to get it, I suddenly remembered what had just happened “And, well… Thank you.”
“You’re welcome. I’m Dave Maxwell.” He held out his hand.
“Alexis Ridge.” I shook it.
“So, how long have these monsters been chasing you around?”
“A month or so. You’ve been running away, too?” I glanced at his tattered t-shirt and stained jeans.
“Yeah. It’s al-“ Dave suddenly stopped talking. I opened my mouth to ask him what was wrong, but he pressed a finger to his lips. A sign that is universally interpreted as ‘be quiet’. I did as he said and, a few seconds later, I understood what had set his alarm system on: there was a rustling sound coming from our right, where our view was blocked by some bushes. I froze. A dark figure emerged from the vegetation, looking around as if it was lost. It was a weird mix between a boy and a goat, and as soon as it spotted us, it started jumping around like the happiest five-year-old in the world.
I was very confused. The goat-boy came next to us “I found you! And, against all odds, you’re alive!” He seemed very excited, and I couldn’t stand anymore that strange situation, so I kindly interrupted his happy dance “Excuse me, could you let us know what’s happening?” He stopped, probably realizing he couldn’t just jump around all day “Oh, yeah, sorry. I’m Terran, a satyr. I’ve been following your demigod scent. My mission is to bring you safely to camp.”
“Demigod scent? Camp? What are you talking about?!” Dave had his sword ready, in case the goat-boy revealed an unfriendly nature.
“You two are demigods, mortal children of the Greek gods. Satyrs are supposed to use their special ability, to follow the demigods’ scent, to find them and bring them to Camp Half-Blood. It’s a place for kids like you.” He paused, noticing we were still pretty diffident “Look, you can either stay here, and keep running away from monsters, or you can come with me to camp. Your choice.”
The gods? Had I ended up in a Greek myth? There were many reasons for that story to sound ridiculous, but there were at least as many for it to be true.
I was tired of that life: no home, no friends, no safe place to hide. Terran certainly wasn’t normal, with his goat legs, and he could’ve been an enemy as well as a friend, but I would’ve followed him anywhere, if he promised to bring me somewhere safe. I looked expectantly at Dave, waiting for him to say we could follow the satyr. He was older than me, and I trusted him, also if I’d just met him. He thought silently for another couple of moments, then he agreed with a nod “We’ll come, but you have to answer a question first: how can the Greek gods exist? Weren’t they just stories?”
Terran smiled “They’re as real as we are. But I’m no good at explaining, Chiron will tell you everything.”
“Who’s Chiron?” I asked.
“The camp director. But, come on, let’s get going, or else we won’t make it to camp before sunset! Oh, and you still haven’t told me your names.”
Dave scabbarded his sword and apologized “Sorry. I’m Dave and this is Alexis. Nice to meet you, Terran.” He and the satyr shook hands, and then it was my turn to do the same.
Terran kept shifting weight from a furry goat leg to the other, involuntarily showing how impatient he was to get moving. I noticed and said “We better hurry. I don’t like walking around at night.”
With that, our journey begun. I didn’t feel like asking any questions, deciding it would be better to talk with the camp director. Dave was silent as well, so I buried myself in my thoughts and kept on walking like an automaton.
This is set right after The Son of Neptune, when the seven demigods of the prophecy sail for Greece.

Hey! Thanks for reading my story. How I post everyday is I ussually think about it during lunch, write it down, and add a few more things when I get home as I type it on here. And I also think about it as I go to bed until I fall asleep. I know it's weird but ALOT of ideas come to my mind at random parts of the day and I always love to write stories.
Also can you put me in your story and kind of relate it to the one I wrote about my character. I'm not saying change the story. I would never do that. But like if you were going to talk about my character...you know what I mean? If you don't just say so.

I really like this so far - you have a flair for writing. And I certainly would like to join your story, if you still have room!
Name: Cecilia Joy LaRosa (fake last name - hey, I remember hearing it from a MLB baseball player and thought it was pretty.)
Age: 13
Looks: Tough one. It's hard to describe yourself. The basics are easy, I guess. Brown hair, somewhat layered, to just below my shoulders. Brown eyes, darker than my hair. Lots of freckles. 5 feet 6 inches. Face fairly average - not delicate, not square. Regular pale lips, medium in size. Turned nose. Always wear a watch, and prefer a tee-shirt and jeans. Never any jewlery, and I like my hair down.
Personality - I'd have to say I'm not too submissive. And I still complain and argue a good deal (I'm working on that [Philiipians 2:14-15]). However, I tend to be able to be cheerful for younger kids, which they like. I enjoy being a sort of leader, although I'm not sure if I'm that good at it. I like all around school - from writing to literature to history to math to science. All of it, basically. I'm pretty average at sports, but will participate willingly. Always trying to be the best (good or bad, it can be either).
Godly parent - I've never really thought about this one. Hmm. i don't know. What about Demeter. Or Athena. I also like Hermes. Pick whicwatchever goes well with your story, if you like.
Backstory - Huh? I asume you mean like my history. Forgive me for being ignorant in about the word "backstory". I guess I grew up in a regular house - mom and dad. I ddin't realize until 11 that one of them was really a step parent. My parents were understanding and flew me out to New York, but it took almost a week to evade all the mosters and make it to Camp Half Blood.
Favorite Weapon - wrist watch that makes one be able to fly when one pushes the "light on" button.
Other: Hey, thanks for letting us sumbit our "applications" here. I really like your story.
God bless!

WOW! I'd have never expected so many people to want to be in the story! I've already got 8 applications! I would really like to give a major role to all of you guys, but... I can't. I hope you won't mind if not all of you will be on the quest I'm planning for Alexis and Dave. A lot will have to stay at camp, sorry :(
Six people will take part to the quest and, since Alexis and Dave will be co-leaders, each of them will choose two people to come along. Dave probably won't choose any girls (that's Alexis's job), so I need two boys to join. Alexis will pick *drum roll, please...* Cecilia (daughter of Demeter) and Mariana (daughter of Apollo)! I'm really sorry for the rest of you guys, but I couldn't bring 8 girls along. You will still be in the story, I promise, but you won't be in the quest.
Now I need a couple of guys to sing up, so that the quest group will be complete.
Sorry again :|

This story is great! I love it!
Okay, I may be a girl, but I'm going to make a boy character. Please add him in the story!
Name: Christian Hamilton (I couldn't think of a better name.)
Age: 13
Looks: black hair, tan skin, orange eyes (I don't know if that's possible), and burly hands. :)
Personality: likes to build things, and isn't really comfortable around other people. But when you've been his friend for a long time, he isn't shy.
Godly Parent: Hephaestus
Backstory: He has always lived as a loner. He has only one friend in school before he'd been in Camp Half-Blood. His mom and step-dad had been mean to him always. Then one day on school, a satyr had shown up and he'd been escorted to Camp Half-Blood. (This happened when he was 10 years old.)
Fav. Weapon: a sword made of celestial bronze. Before it becomes a sword, it's a bronze-faced watch. Rub the face of the watch and it turns into a sword.
Other: Leo Valdez's friend
Hope it's good enough! Peace out!
~Angela :D

wait, I'm confused. You said that only 2 people where going into the the story, and I wasn't, but before you said I'm in and that you'd add me. Am I in or out?
I want to be different, so I'm being myself:)

I was scared to death! I didn't know how to hang-glide. I'm not afraid of heights, but what if something bad happened? Time to go. I strapped up, when we jumped a huge gust of wind blew me away. There was lightning, I got strucked by it. I was going down. I could hear my mom screaming for me. I untangled and was about to open my parachute when suddenly, I didn't feel like I was falling anymore. I was floating! I started drifting over to my mom. I got to her. She wasn't shocked or anything by it.

Hey guys, I'm so sorry I haven't been posting for a while, but I was really busy. Plus, today was Carnival, so I went out with my friends. Anyhoo, Ty Linden and Christian Hamilton will go on the quest; all other characters will be in the story but as minor characters. So, they will stay at camp while Alexis, Dave, Cecilia, Mariana, Ty and Christian go on their quest (@Anna, I hope this answers your question).
I will post a new part of the story on Thursday, since tomorrow will be a busy day as well. I'm really sorry to keep you waiting.

Personality: Menacing, Fierce, Violent, Dark (As in, unknown.)
Godly Parent: Pluto, Mars, Erebus.
Backstory: A raid of monsters attacked his house because of a *piece of Obsidian. A monster stated that it gives him 'power'.
Fav. Weapon: Double edged sword made out of shadows. I can change the shape & metal of the sword by changing around the shadows. Example: I shifted the shadows to make an imperial gold spatha.

@BlackCobra235, yeah I'll add Jake in the middle of the quest, a Romon demigod will make things a bit more intresting.
Ok, so here we go with the new part. Thanks to all of you who are reading this! :D
Sunset. The big red sun of July going down certainly was a beautiful view, but I was too tired to look at it. My legs hurt after walking for so long, and I only managed to focus on one thing: our goal, that mysterious camp Terran was supposed to lead us to. I glanced at the horizon, still nothing. We were climbing up a hill, some trees spread around us. After a few other steps, the silhouette of a pine tree stood out on the pinkish sky. I would’ve ignored the detail, if Terran hadn’t turned around to announce “We’re almost there! Thalia’s Tree marks the boundaries of Camp”
I took another look at the pointy green tree that grew bigger and bigger as we got closer. I saw nothing special about it. Just another conifer like many others. I shrugged and followed silently the strange creature that had been leading us since we'd met him in the wood. Dave was silent, his feet hit the ground almost rhythmically. I wondered what might be going on inside his brain, we hadn’t talked much during the journey.
Since he seemed to be isolated from the outside world, I turned to face what was in front of me.
The scenery had changed: now a huge marble portal stood next to the pine tree, which had gotten huge. Two ivory white columns sustained a third square block, which read “CAMP HALF-BLOOD”.
I couldn’t believe what I saw: we’d actually made it! If I’d had the strength to jump up and start crying happily that we’d reached our destination, I probably would have, but I was too exhausted.
“Dave, look!” I pointed at the white entrance to what, Terran said, would become our new home. Dave shook his head as if he were just waking up from a dream and followed the imaginary line my finger traced.
“We made it!” he smiled.
Fighting against our exhaustion, we managed to speed up the pace. The only thing I saw was the marble portal, and the slender figure that had suddenly appeared in the middle of it. It didn’t look like the girl was going to take another step towards us, and Terran didn’t seem to be expecting her to go any further. I tried to make out her features, but we were still too far. The only thing I could make out was a mass of red hair, that matched almost perfectly the color of the Sun, which was about to disappear behind the horizon.
When we reached the entrance, she greeted us and introduced herself as Anna. Her eyes were electric blue, her skin pale, and she seemed to have the blood of a leader in her veins. She could’ve been twelve or thirteen, surely not older than me. I wondered how she’d ended up here.
“There are many things to explain about Camp, but maybe it’s better if you talk to Chiron” she said as she led us to a baby blue house. Again that name, Chiron. I figured he must’ve been someone really important around there.
A man in a wheelchair was sitting quietly on the porch of the house, contemplating his surroundings: the strawberry fields, a complex of various cabins disposed to form something that looked pretty much like a U with two wings at its extremities, the woods and the beach farther away. Other buildings were spread around the colorful ensemble of cabins, but I didn’t focus very much on them.
“I see two new demigods have arrived.” The man in the wheelchair said as we stepped on the porch. Terran was still with us, and both he and Anna tried to reply at the same time.
“They have-“ Anna begun.
“I foun-“ Terran stopped and gestured for the girl to continue. Anna nodded and spoke again with her firm voice “They’ve just arrived, and you should explain them how things work…”
“Very well. Thank you for bringing them here, you and Terran can go now.”
As the satyr and the girl walked away, the man finally decided it was time for us to know his name “I’m Chiron, Camp Director.”

Camp Half-Blood Welcomes A Couple of New Demigods...
Ok, new part ready! I'm really sorry it takes me a lot of time to write each piece, but I'm really busy right now D: Can't wait for Easter holidays to come. Plus, on Friday I'll get to ditch school. It's not really ditching, because my parents gave me permission since it's S.Cosimo (official ditch day in my town).
So, yeah, now that I've told you things you probably don't care about, you can read the story ;D
We were sitting on the chairs arranged on the porch, waiting for Chiron to start explaining.
“Well, you sure do know a little something about Greek mythology, don’t you?” he asked.
The only thing I knew was ancient Greeks thought there were gods to rule the world, and that was it. I’d never bothered reading the book they’d given us in school, mostly because it would’ve been a total waste of time, me being ADHD. Dave, instead, nodded “There were gods, like Zeus and Poseidon to control the forces of the world, and there were heroes who went on very dangerous quests.”
“Very well. These heroes were the children of a god and a mortal, and when they went on these quests, they usually found monsters on their way.” Chiron filled in some blanks, but then he went silent, maybe wanting us to continue. I had already connected the dots, but I didn’t want to believe that story, and saying everything out loud would’ve just made it more real. I was sure Dave had already gotten to the same conclusion as me, but he started reasoning out loud “Monsters. You mean like the ones that have been following us. And the only reason they would do that is because…”
Chiron started stirring, trying to get out of his wheelchair “Because you are part of this world.” He stood up and I saw he didn’t have human legs. Not even goat ones. Oh, no, behind him stretched the body of a white stallion, impossible to hide in a wheelchair.
“You’re a monster, too?” I asked, confused by his quick transformation. I must’ve sounded like a five-year-old, but that was exactly how small I felt. Chiron stifled a laugh “No, I’m a centaur. I’m supposed to train young demigods, and make heroes out of them.”“So, my dad’s a god?” he asked. I thought about it for a second, and then decided that if one of my parents had to be a divinity, then it would be my mom. I’d never met her, and there were no pictures of her. I’d asked my dad about her a lot of times, and he’d only said she disappeared right after I was born. When he described her, he always talked about her eyes: how luminous they were, what a beautiful color they had and how much mine reminded him of them. I had my dad’s silky dark hair, but except for that, I was the exact copy of my mom. Or, at least, that was what my father never stopped reminding me. I shook my head and got back to reality.
“Yes, Dave. But we don’t know who he is. He has to claim you, first.” Chiron answered. I didn’t want to let Dave ask all the questions, so I anticipated him “And what happens once our parents claim us?”
“You will get to your cabin.” Chiron noticed how confused that response had made us, and explained himself better “Here at camp, demigods all do the same activities, but when it comes to games or sleeping or eating, they are divided in cabins. Each god has its cabin, where all his kids are gathered.”
It still wasn’t very clear, but I guessed I’d just have to go with it. My head already ached from all those new things to get used to and thinking about my dad had made me homesick again. I hated it, homesickness. It made me feel week and vulnerable, but I couldn’t help it. Maybe it would get better, now that I had found this place. Maybe it could slowly take the cozy apartment’s place. I tried not to think about it and gather the last piece of information I needed “What do we do now?”
Chiron glanced at the sun “You move into Cabin Eleven and get ready for dinner.”
“What’s Cabin Eleven?” Dave asked.
“Hermes’s Cabin. God of travelers and thieves.” Said a voice behind us. I turned o see a thin girl with long brown hair wearing glasses standing a few feet away. “Hannah, why don’t you introduce yourself to our new campers?” Chiron suggested.
Thanks to all you awesome readers :D
