Rowan sat on her bed, backpack at her feet and her favourite jacket beside her.
And she waited.
Rowan wasn't very good at being patient but she knew if she wanted this to work, she needed to wait.
Thud

There it was.
She grinned. Pulling her jacket on, she grabbed her bag and headed for her window. Like hell was she going to live in a hell hole anymore. There was something more out there for her, she could feel it in her bones. Whatever it was, she needed to find it. She needed to find whatever was calling her.

Roe quietly opened her bedroom window and shimmed down the drainpipe on the wall of her foster home. Her boots hit the floor and she took in a deep breath or warm air. She could feel it, that pull. Her feet began to move. First a walk, then a jog, then a sprint.

The first time Emery felt the slightest surge of her powers, was the day that her adopted parents had gotten attacked by unlikely creatures that the young woman had never seen. Things one could only read about in books, or see in fantasy films. But apparently they were in her reality. Despite the fact that she managed to disintegrate the strange beings into pile of ashes; with the power of the light. It didn't stop her adoptive parents from thinking that she was a freak of nature. Feeling like she no longer belonged in the family she thought she was a part of. Emery kept her distance from everyone and anyone that came into her life from then on. Not wanting anyone to get hurt because she was around.

It was soon enough after that, she discovered whom she was. The God Apollo himself, visited her one evening. Telling her the truth about her parentage. She was his daughter. Or one of the offspring's anyways. Being a Demi-God, had at first shocked her. She wasn't human. Not fully.

With those events and truth about herself. Emery knew she needed to try and find more people like herself. It'd be the one place that she'd feel safe. To be able to learn and grow; and discover more about her abilities. Not many belongings with her, she decided to travel light. Keeping things that meant the most to her and some clothes, she set out to find Camp Half Blood.

Roe kept sprinting for what felt like hours. She didn't know where the hell she was going but she felt this surge in her chest, this almost light in the dark calling to her.

She always knew there was something weird about her. For a while she thought she was crazy, she thought she was delusional. She used to see monsters and some guy fighting them. She could have sworn she and he shared the same eyes but she was probably just projecting, desperate for a connection with anyone.

Rowan laughed as she came to a stop finally, grinning at nothing. By the gods, freedom felt so fucking good! She looked up at the sky, her smile softening at the sight above her. "Come on then universe! Tell me where I'm meant to be!"

Following the instructions that she had been given by Apollo; Emery stuck to the path. Following the co-ordinates to the last dot on the map. Trudging through the woods alone was probably never safe; so she kept glancing over her shoulder. Making sure that she wasn't followed, or that something was waiting to jump out at her in the shadows. When she finally came to the spot, where the entrance was supposed to be. All she saw was nothing...just a field around her.

"Well this is helpful." she muttered to herself. Double checking the map to make sure she was in the right spot. As she did so, suddenly the magical threshold began to falter for her; allowing her to see the archway that'd led her towards her new home; her destiny.

As if someone had been listening to her, she felt that pull again and began to follow it. She could tell, however, she was being followed herself. She sprinted again, thanking whichever of her parents for her endurance, determined to make it to where she was meant to be.

She ended up in a forest, following some sort of path. Now she was in the dense woodlands, she could the heavy stamping of whatever was following her. She didn't let that stop her, picking up the pace. Soon, an archway appeared in the distance. Along with the figure of another girl. Fuck. Fuck! FUCK!

"Get out of the way! I can't stop!" True to Roe's words, she couldn't slow her running in time, colliding with the person standing in front of the archway

Emery barely looked up, just when everything was going to chaos. She could see some wording forming on the archway. But before she could attempt to read it; she heard yelling a few feet away from her. Spinning around on the spot, Emery saw a large monster chasing a young girl. Before she could move, or respond. Both of them were on the ground. "Ooft." she let out a slight cough, when Rowan knocked her down to the ground. Causing Emery to become winded.

The monster screeched advancing towards the two women on the floor. "Watch out." Emery gasped out, seeing that the monster was reaching for the girls legs. It was at that moment, that a shield of bright light seemed to wrap around the two girls. The daughter of Apollo once again projecting her abilities. The monster screeched louder at the light. Almost like the light was blinding and burning it.

At the same moment, a head poked out of the secret portal from the archway behind them. "Get in....hurry!" urging the two girls to safety.

Rowan froze, tensing herself ready to take the brute of the attack. But no blow landed and a soft warmth enveloped her. She glanced over her shoulder, eyes growing wide at the sight of the shield over the two girls.

Her head snapped up at the words from beyond the arch. Rowan didn't hesitate, grabbing the girl from under her and lifting her up. She launched them both towards the archway, a red, flaming sword appearing where Rowan once was.

The teen stumbled right before the opening, causing her to go stumbling with the other girl in her arms. She turned, trying to take as much of the impact as possible.

Neither of them had time to question whom was poking their head out of the archway. Or ask where the thing was leading. The shield gave them enough time to stumble through the opening of the portal. Letting out a slight yelp, as the force of the portal made them both stumble. Once again, landing on the floor in a heap. Her red wavy hair covering her half her face, and almost smothering the blonde whom pulled her through the portal.

The commotion outside of the magic gateway had caused curiosity among members of Camp Half-Blood. A few teenagers, around their age in the near distance.

Feeling another pair of arms grab at her and the other girl, helping up to their feet. Emery came face to face with a tall, dark haired male. Maybe few years older than she and Rowan. "Who...who are you? where are we?" Emery asked, managing to catch her breath.

"Leon. Son of Athena." he stated proudly as he introduced himself. "Welcome to Camp Half-Blood." welcoming the two newcomers. Seeing their differing facial expressions. "Chiron will explain everything." All that mattered was that they had gotten away from the monster in the woods, and were safe.

Roe clabbered to her feet, dusting herself in a bid to not look like a complete idiot in front of a strangers.
She raised an eyebrow at his introduction and tilted her head. "Son of athena? Like the Greek goddess? Great. This is a cult."

A boy around the same age as Leon ran towards the group an eady smile on his face. Only slightly shorter than the other boy, his skin was sun kissed, hair sandy blonde and eyes blue. "Hey there! Im Freddy, son of aphrodite!"

Leon looked towards Rowan. "Exactly like the Greek Goddess." he said. Trying not to chuckle as she said it was a cult. She didn't seem to be a believer. Or had not yet, figured out whom she was. "This is no Cult." he assured Rowan. "You must be special, like the rest of us, if you found this place." If she were a mere mortal, she wouldn't be allowed to step foot in here.

A few more people came up to introduce themselves. Freddy seemed eager to see the new-comers. Next was a young girl by the name of Georgie. Or Georgianna for full. "Hi, I am Georgie. Daughter of Poseidon." Her ocean blue eyes sparkled with her smile, as her dark raven hair blew in the wind.
Following Georgie was Lucille. "Lucille, daughter of Hades." Seemingly a bit more grim looking than the others. Lucille was still nice, once you got to know her. But otherwise to most people, she kept her distance and didn't always seem like the most warmest of people.

Looking between the people that greeted them. Giving the others a slight nervous smile. "Hi, I am Emery." she introduced herself. Emery looked at Rowan. "I think they're serious." Now she didn't feel so crazy, knowing that there were others like her out there.

Roe looked at the people around her and the other girl, it was written all over her face that she didn't believe a word of it. She crossed her arms and took a few people back. "I'm Rachel. And I think you're all insane" She lied. One thing she learnt growing up rough, never to give anyone your real name.

Freddy's smile softened at the two girls. "You've both really been put through the wringer, haven't you?" He looks to Georgie, Lucille and Leon. "Come on guys, lets not crowd them. This place can be intimidating enough without a bunch of weirdos surrounding them. Twinkle toes has probably already gone to get the teachers."

Emery could see that the female next to her, was going to be quiet tough to deal with. Especially if she thought they were all insane. If she didn't experience the things she had lately, she'd probably be the same. "It's been a strange few weeks. At least for me." she told Freddy. Who knows how her time here would work out. Would it be better? Or more craziness wear it's ugly head? Wondering how many more different people were at this camp. And no doubt interesting to see how she would fit in here.

Leon rose an eyebrow towards Rowan. Not quiet convinced that she was giving her real name. He was good at reading people, and something about the way she said it; just didn't sound convincing. "Well then...Rachel." he said, although still not believing her. "Believe what you will." She'll soon find out the truth. Looking down at Freddy. "I am pretty sure, they might have heard the chaos themselves." Leading the way towards the main areas of the camp; so they could introduce the newcomers to the Chiron and the other teachers. Maybe Faculty members, could help them figure things out more.

Freddy nodded with a small chuckle. "Yeah, I get that. When my mom claimed me, I had a real weird couple of weeks till I was found. But I promise it all makes sense here." He assured her.

Freddy nudged his friend, dropping his voice so only Leon could hear his voice. "Go easy on the new girl man. You saw the sword too right? You really wanna piss off Ares daughter? Besides." He glanced over his shoulder at 'rachel'"She seems a bit scared to me." it was pretty common knowledge that at the camp how well Freddy could read people, a perk of being Aphroties son.

Roe followed the boys, keeping close to Emery. She might not trust any of them but she couldn't lie, she definitely felt some sort of pull towards the camp and the other girl. She hesitated for only a moment before looking at Emery. "You okay? I really bashed into you back there. Sorry about that by the way."

For Emery it was a small relief, that someone seemed to know what she was going through. "Truthfully, I thought I was going crazy." She said in all honesty. But that was further from the truth, especially when Apollo first paid her a visit. Wondering what even went on here, at this Camp Half-Blood. Not that her father really explained everything. Just that it was a place for special people like herself. Following the small group, she held her side slightly. The aches and pains from earlier, setting in on her hip. Trying not to wince, as the pain travelled down her leg. Looking towards the curly blonde girl. There was something about her, that Emery couldn't quiet place. A weird sense of connection. Like she was supposed to know her. "A bit sore, but I'll manage." She said honestly. "It's alright. I know you didn't mean to." Emery told her. If she had been in her spot, being chased by a monster; she probably would have collided into someone too herself.

Unlike Freddy, Leon wasn't so intimidated by the daughter of Ares. He was the son of Athena after all. A fighter himself. Chuckling a little to himself, when he heard Freddy. "I think it might be the constant smiling, that freaks people out." he told his friend teasingly.

Rowan offered her a small smile, relief clear in her eyes. It had been so long since she had experienced concern for someone, it was strange but nice. She kept her voice low as she spoke. "My names actually Rowan, I just don't trust those lads yet. Most people call me Roe"

Freddy frowned at the other boy. "Listen here smart arse." He teased back, grinning as they approached the main hub of the camp. "Awe, home sweet home"

Rowan whistled at the sight, her eyes widening as she took in the buildings around them. "Okay, I'll admit it. This place is kinda cool. Very..greek."

Leon just smirked playfully at Freddy. "I am smart indeed, I know." he said. Knowing Freddy liked to annoy him with teasing comments, as much as he liked to annoy the others.

Emery was hoping that the pain would subside soon enough. With her being a Demi-God, she had a naturally quicker healing than humans did. Guess, being half and half, would come in handy that way. As 'Rachel' admitted what her real name was. "They seem nice enough, but I understand." she told her with a soft smile. "It's nice to meet you anyways, Rowan." she told her softly. As they reached the cabins. Emery herself was surprised by their beauty. All of the cabins seemed to be designed for every specific God and Goddess. "Wow, this place looks cool." It was very greek indeed. Nothing wrong with that. "So, what do you guys actually do here at this camp?" Emery asked, wanting to learn more about this place. Just then, she heard another voice behind her. But much deeper than the boys. Looking over her shoulder to see an older man. Expect he wasn't a man. He was a Centaur.

"These must be our new-comers. Welcome to the camp." he greeted them. "My name is Chiron. Any and all questions can be directed at me." he spoke with a friendly smile.

Freddy glanced between the two new girls and the teacher. It was always fun watching newbies meet a centaur for the first time. He nudged his friend playing with a small grin. "Which one do you think will freak?" He whispered.

Rowan didn't hesitate, walking towards the half-man and to the side of him. "Holy shit. You're half horse? Like, seriously?" She sniggers a laugh, moving back to look at him. "Can you prove it? Like, prove this isn't some sort of fever dream or hollogram or whatever?" She looks to Emery. "You seeing this shit too right?"

There's a harsh chuckle from behind the centaur, a rather scruffy looking man in a Hawaiian shirt coming to stand next t Chiron. "I love the sceptical ones. They're always the funniest to watch crack"

Emery was too shocked for words, when Chiron made his presence known. Staring at the half horse, half man. Her jaw wide open, eyes unblinking in her shock. Rowan seemed amused by this. Just managing to nod at her question "Mhh-uh." She was seeing this. Or hopefully she was. "Okay, someone pinch me." she said. Squeezing her eyes shut, waiting for the incoming pinch. Or something to bring her out of what felt like a dream. When no pinch came, she opened one eye. But the Centaur still was there.

"Nope, not a dream." She muttered to herself, as she turned paler. As if she were seeing a ghost. "This is not normal. I can't be talking to a half a horse." Starting to pace in her shock. Emery was beginning to freak out. It was one thing to find out about monsters, and being the daughter of one of the Olympians. But this was something else entirely. In her mad ramblings, she finally fainted from her shock.

Leon was a little amused by this, as was Freddy. "Oh shit." he said, when he saw Emery passing out. Managing to catch her, before her head hit the wooden floor-boards of the cabin.

Chiron looked between the two girls; taking in their similarities. As both of them seemed shocked at his mere existence. "The official term is Centaur." he told Rowan. Just then one of them had fainted, in her shock. It wasn't the first time, a student passed out at the sight of him. Looking towards Rowan, he spoke again. "No holograms, no hallucinations." he assured her. Looking towards the Hawaiian t-shirt wearing Male that joined him. "Be nice." he said in a warning tone.
