"Hello?" Alana's voice echoed into the darkness. No answer. "Is anyone there?" Still no answer. The huntress attempted to look around, but couldn't see anything but pitch black. "Clarisse?" Nothing. "Mom?" Nothing. "Annabeth? Luke? Silena? Joella? Elias?" Nothing.

"Alana," a male voice sung. It was a soothing voice, almost homey.

She spun around truing to find the voice, only to find more darkness. "You will find yourself soon young one," this time a female voice came. Her voice made Alana feel comforted.

Everything started shaking and it felt as though the darkness was consuming her. A scream escaped Alana's lips as she felt everything get sucked into her.

She jolted upwards, panting. Alana looked around to see her cabin. It was a dream? Stupid hyper realistic demigod dreams.

Alana looked down to see her limbs looked consumed but shadows. That's it, she's gone crazy and it's a sign to go back to sleep. The huntress decided she wasn't getting out of bed until at least noon tomorrow.

Knocking woke Alana up. She turned to look at the time 5:00am. So much for her plans.

"Alana Celeste Gatti if you don't open this door I'm just coming in there!" Annabeth screamed.

Why the hell was Annabeth banging on her door at 5am? Slowly, she got up and made her way to the door. She opened it and glared at the 12 year old. "Annabeth Chase I am going to beat your ass."

"The kid defeated a minotaur."

Alana just stared at her with a blank expression. It was too early for her to care about a kid she didn't know. "Good for him."

She turned and closed her door, ignoring Annabeth's protests. A few minutes later Alana was back in her bed, fast asleep.

Alana woke back up at 10am, feeling much less cranky. She remembered the interaction from last night and figured she should go welcome the new kid. And probably keep Clarisse in check.

As soon as she stepped out of her cabin, she heard Clarisse and her siblings laughing. Alana sighed before running over to the noise.

"You better be ready when it comes," Clarisse snapped. Alana saw Luke glaring at her and a blonde boy sitting on the ground. She assumed that was the new kid. Probably about Annabeth's age.

"Clarisse." The huntress's voice startled everyone around her, well everyone except the one who should be scared.

The Ares girl grinned at the sound of the voice and turned towards her. "Hey Lana," she had an edge to her voice. As if she was trying to sweet talk her to distract from the harassment.

Alana walked over to her and smacked her lightly up the back of the head. Clarisse gasped and shot her a glare. Everyone around them feared for Alana's life, especially Percy and the other Ares kids. Alana knew Clarisse would never lay a hand on her to retaliate. She might yell or scream, but never hit her. "Knock it off. Poor kid's had a rough few days."

Percy couldn't tear his eyes away from the two girls. "Did- did she just tame her like a dog?" Percy muttered to Luke. This girl was just shoving him around like a basketball then another girl just gets her to stop like it's nothing.

"Yeah," Luke answered casually. "Alana and Clarisse are best friends. No one knows how it happened, but they're always together. Alana is the only one who can say and do whatever they want to Clarisse. Girl's whipped."

"How come they don't mess with you?"

Clarisse dismissed her siblings and grabbed Alana's wrist as she tried to walk away. "You didn't even say hi. What happened to good morning my darling best friend?"

Alana tried her hardest not to smile. She was mad at Clarisse. Not laughing at her horrible excuses of jokes. "What happened to being nice?"

"That's so lame."

The huntress rolled her eyes. "We talked about this."

Clarisse glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention. Once she was sure no one was around she softened her face. "Lana, you know I-"

Alana's expression softened too. "I know, Risse. Just give the kid a break for now."

She turned to walk away when Clarisse yelled, "We're gonna beat you in Capture the Flag!"

Alana laughed and rolled her eyes. "In your dreams Clar!" She yelled back.

"Great. Where do we start?" Alana heard as she turned back to the new kid, Luke and Chris.

Luke started to think as Alana came up to the new kid. She gently set a hand on his shoulder. "Hey." He looked up at her at the sound of her soft voice. "Sorry about her, I'm Alana by the way," she stuck her hand out and the boy took it.

He smiled at her. "Percy Jackson, nice to meet you." She smiled back. "Who's your parent?" Percy asked.

"Artemis," Alana answered, without hesitation. She quickly realized that was not the answer he was looking for, but he already looked confused.

"But I thought she couldn't-" Percy got cut off by someone in the distance.

"She's adopted, dimwit!" Apparently Clarisse hadn't gone far.

Alana stifled a laugh while all three boys looked confused as to where Clarisse's voice came from. "That makes more sense," Percy muttered.

"Um, to answer your more likely question, I'm unclaimed. I know that my dad is the godly parent, just not who. I just live in my mom's cabin," She explained softly.

"She also used to live-" Chris got smacked by Luke before he could finish his sentence.

Alana turned to shoot him a glare, then looked at Luke gratefully. "She doesn't like us advertising that," Luke quietly scolded.

"Anyway, what were you guys talking about before?" Alana asked.

"Glory," Percy simply said.

Luke nodded. "A good source of glory is feats of skill," he explained. "So we just have to figure out what you're good at." He glanced at Alana, implying something that she lit up at.

"Oh!" She grinned. "We could start with archery!"

Percy glanced at the boys, confused as to why she was so excited. Probably something to do with her mom, he assumed. "Alana's the best archer at camp, always has been," Luke boasted.

Alana grabbed Percy's hand and started walking towards the archery field. "C'mon Percy!"
