A Hero's Patience

Prolouge
One person shouldn't have so much pain. One person shouldn't have to drag themselves throughout the day.

A demigod hero shouldn't have so much patience........

Maybe it's because I learned the hard way that life isn't fair.

Maybe it's because I know that getting angry isn't gonna help your case.

No one cares why you have pain especially in New York.

But when people did care, you knew they were pious at heart.

Maybe I should start from the beginning.

My name is Sophia Averson and I am a child made from temptation ...........

Chapter 1
" Sophia, you're late for school." Lisa called.

Lisa and Christopher Averson were my adoptive parents.

When I was about to be born, my father abandoned my birth mother and I and she was only 17.

She decided that she wasn't gonna take care of a mistake baby and put me up for adoption.

4 years after I was born, Lisa and Chris adopted me since they couldn't have children of their own.

Lisa never made me feel like I was adopted. She cared for me like she was my mother.

I was now 14.

I quickly dressed in jeans, a purple tanktop, and a blue sweatshirt and was ready for school.

" You have 5 minutes Sophia." Lisa said as she gave me some toast with jam on it.

Then she handed me my lunchbag, " Thanks Lisa." I said.

" GO!" She all but kicked me out.

Little did I know that would be the last time I ever saw my mom........

Chapter 2
People said I was too patient for a 14 year old.

The reason for this was because I knew pain. I'd lived through it all my life and still was able to tolerate whatever life throws at me.

In New York you don't find lots of nice folks that are actually nice.

Sooner or later, their true colors shone through like the sun on a beautiful day.

I've been cheated, beat, lied to.

When I was in second grade, a bunch of 3rd graders beat me up. When they were all expelled, they blamed me,

Where was the justice in that?

My best friend was Ricky Nores.

He understood me better than myself,

When I got home from school, I looked for Lisa.

" Lisa!" When I walked into the kitchen, I found a note addressed to me.

Sophia Averson,

''Your precious Lisa is with me. You must find her and save her.''

Young demigod, how much your obliviousness has cost you,

Ask Ricky Nores what I mean.

I will be watching you, Averson.

                  Love,

                       Your mother's kidnapper.

Chapter 3
I called Ricky over and read him the note.

" What does he mean young demigod?" I asked both Ricky and Chris.

I saw Ricky look at Chris and Chris nodded.

" Sophia, we haven't been straight with you. Your not who you think you are." Ricky said slowly.

" So I'm not Sophia Marie Averson?" I asked.

" You are but you aren't totally human." Chris explained.

"What am I? A zombie?" I asked.

"Sophia shut up and listen, You've heard of the Olympians right?" I nodded as Ricky continued.

" When a god/goddess is involved with a mortal they have kids called demigods." He explained.

" So I'm a demigod." I said slowly.

" A powerful one. You must be taken to camp immediately." RIcky said standing up.
