Clarissa Walker's P.O.V
"OH. MY. GAWD." Andy said. She looked at me shocked after I told her what had happened. "No way...." she said. "I know right." I sighed. "Your so lucky!!!!" She squealed.
I looked back at her, baffled. "How could you say such a thing!" I said, offended. "I thought you were my friend!" I yelled at her. I hit her on the arm. "Ouch! No need to get physical..." She said as she rubbed her arm.
"You so deserved that!" Shadow said, while walking over here with Irissa next to her. "Hey!" Irissa greeted us. "Did not!" Andy shot back. "Did too!" Shadow challenged her.
"Hey." I replied back to Irissa. "So, what are you guys doing?" I asked her. She shrugged. "I guess we were looking for you and Andy. But since we found you guys already, nothing really."
I sighed, it was kind of boring here and nothing too exciting to do. "What can we do here?" I asked Irissa. "Pretty much training to stay alive and to prepare for any prophecies." I nodded. "Have you found your weapon yet?"
She asked. I forgot to get one cause I had to chase down Andy. "Nope." She looked shocked at me. "We need to find yours." While Andy and Shadow were bickering, Irissa and I went to find me a weapon.
"Okay, how do you kno-" I was cut off short by something that caught my eye. I walked over to it and pulled it out. It was a sword that was shiney and dark.
"I guess you've found it." Irissa said as she walked over to me. I nodded slowly as I examined the weapon a little more thoroughly. 'soul catcher'. It read. Oooh, it's the right weight, size and shape. It looked really deadly... Cool...

It was perfect. "It's perfect..." I whispered. Irissa looked at me with a 'duhh' look. "Of course it is! It's supposed to be like that." I nodded. I found my weapon, now what?
"What's it's name?" She asked. "Soul catcher." I told her. She beamed. "Awesome! It totally fits you." I smiled.
"So, what should we do now?" I asked. "We should break those two up before it gets worse." She said, as she pointed at the two girls quarrelling. I laughed. "Let's go."
We walked to them and stared at them. "I'm telling Clara on you! Clara!!!" She yelled. She ran over to me and pouted. "Clara, Shadow's being mean. Tell her to stop. OH and say sorry too!" I sighed.
I swear, she may look 15, but is truly a 3-year-old in the inside. "Shadow..." I sighed. Shadow looked at me with wide eyes. "Don't tell me she was actually serious."
I sighed again and she groaned. "Fine! I'll stop, but I'm not saying sorry." Andy stood there, pushing out her bottom lip. Tears welled up in her eyes, 'til one tear dropped.
"Ugh, fine! SORRY." Shadow yelled. Andy wiped away her tear and smiled. "That was too easy..." She gave us one last smile and skipped away.
"S-she tricked me..." Shadow said, tryong to believe it. Her face turned red and if we were in a cartoon, her ears would have puffed out smoke.
"COME BACK HERE TWERP!!!!!" Shadow screamed. Irissa and I backed away quickly. Andy turned her head and saw how angry Shadow was. She spinted out of sight, but Shadow still ran after her.
"Those two are nice to each other..." Irissa nervously laughed. I laughed. "Yup, they sure are."

We hanged out a little while longer 'til Chiron trotted up to us and called Andy, Shadow, and I to the big house. Before we left, we waved Irissa good-bye.

"Did we do something wrong?" I asked him. He shook his head. "No. You were called in because of the prophecy." Oh, the prophecy.
"The others are already there." I began to ask,"What's the prophecy?" He smiled. "You'll hear it when we arrive." I nodded.
Andy and Shadow have been quiet the whole time. "Are you guys alright?" They nodded. "I've never been part of a quest before. I'm just shocked." I smiled. Her face brightened just talking about it.
"I am so scared! What happens if we die? What happens if one of us gets really hurt? How long are we staying for? Are we gonna be okay? Clare, what hapens if something happens to you or Shadow? I know for sure that it would be the death of me!" I frowned at the thought.
"We shouldn't think about it like that. We should be pretty proud that the fates chose us to do this heroic act, right?" She smiled back at me and I did the same. I really hope that none of us gets too hurt...
When we arrived there, I mentally slapped myself. There stood an akward boy and..... Nico. I swear, everywhere I end up, he has to be there too. I groaned mentally. I looked at him and rolled my eyes. Great, we'll have to work together...
Then a girl with frizzy red hair came out. "This is Rachel, our oracle." She looked over at us and green smoke came out of her mouth as her eyes glowed green.
Two of the underworld
One of light
Child of thieves
Child of the fight
All shall journey to bring back the night
One is lost, One is found
Denial shall bring Olympus to the ground
(Thx @Emmy_The_Lynx)
We stood there, shocked. "Okay, so we have all the children, now how about the night..." Nico said. "Ahh, yes. I forgot to tell you... The moon goddess, Selene, is missing."
"What?!!" We all screamed, except the awkward boy. The goddess, Selene, is missing. We have to get her back... Oh god. I mentally sighed. "Fuck... This is awesome!!" Shadow squealed. We looked at her confused.
"We're going on a quest. Woo-hoo!" I rolled my eyes at her. "When should we leave?" Nico asked. "You must return her before the next full moon. If you don't return her by then, Helios must set the sun and the world shall live in eternal darkness." I groaned.
"Isn't this just dandy!" I said sarcastically. "When's the next full moon?" Nico asked, ignoring me like usual. "This coming Sunday. You have a week to return the goddess." We all nodded.
"You should leave tomorrow." We nodded again. "You can go now...." The three of us left and began to talk. "Are you guys nervous?" Andy asked. I nodded. "I'm not. This is the perfect opportunity to show people I'm a child of Ares." I smiled.
"We should meet up again later." Shadow said. "Yeah." We said our good-byes and separated.
Okay!!!! We got 500+ reads!!! Whoop, whoop!! And they are going on a quest. Thank you @Emmy_The_Lynx for the prophecy. All credit for prophecy goes to her. :) Oh, Megan Nicole will be playing Clarissa. if you dont want her you could just keep imagining how she looks like. so please vote, fan and comment.

Hello ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to my first attempt at writing a novel. I am preparing to participate in the 2017 NaNoWriMo event so enjoy the first chapter as that's here early only to ensure that I have a place to post once the event starts. This means the first novel/book will have a target of 50,000 words. I'm excited to attempt this challenge despite the hurdles I will have to overcome. I do have a demanding full time job so planning time to write and make weekly releases starting in November will be my biggest challenge. Also, please accept my apologies on my cover. I'm not an artist and the only digital tool available at my disposal is the stock microsoft paint. So I did my best to create a decent cover as I did not want to steal the work of another. If there are those interested by the end of November in donating a new fan made cover then I will look into replacing the old cover.
