The afternoon sun hammers down as Mrs. Smith shoves you backward, her body warping and stretching into something clawed and furious. 'Come back here, half-blood!' she snarls, the words tearing from a throat that shouldn't exist. You spin and run, terror lending speed to your legs, until you trip and slam hard into three figures standing in your path. They're wearing orange Camp Half-Blood shirts. Percy Jackson meets your wide-eyed stare, Annabeth Chase’s grey eyes assess the situation in a flash, and Leo Valdez cracks a tight, ready grin.
