Dru woke up at the crack of dawn, it was necessary, if, she wished to look as well as she does already. Her morning ritual took about three hours, and several wardrobe changes. As she finished, she fished out her cell hpne from her purse hanging on the doorknob. Flipping it open, she sighed. Stupid people urked her greatly. As she exited her room, she took the stairs rather quickly, a professional in those heels. As she hit the bottom step, she could smell the grease, and dead animal lingering in the air. Making a gaging motion, she nonchalantly entered the kitchen. Her foster parents looked at her, but before Dru could let out the quetion, they spoke in unison, "No." Rage welled up in her eyes, she felt the same force that made her get her way oh so many other times. In her sweetest voice possible she spoke, "Father, mother. It's in dire need of me to go to the mall today." And she saw it in their eyes, they would allow her to go. Rushing out of the house, she placed her sunglasses on her eyes, drawing out most of the suns harmful rays.
As she heard her heels of the boots hit the floor, she felt as if someone, or thing was following her. Quickly cocking her head from side to side, she saw nobody. She was overreacting. "It was ages ago, calm down. You are giving yourself wrinkles." She spoke to herself.

OCC: So its a random character, use him however you want
“Ohhhh, I didn’t want to do this!” Thor the Satyr mumbled to himself. “I hate going on non-school missions!”
Thor sat, hidden in the bushes by Dru Charlesburg’s house. Dressed in full jeans, tennis, a hat, and a Tshirt. He looked like an average 8th grader, with unnatural bushy, curly black hair.
He stood up carefully and peered through the front window. He kept on muttering, “Why does Chiron always send ME on the “house call” missions. Its not like I’m any good at them!”

Dru knew something was not right the moment she stepped out of her house, but that didn't stop her. Dru did what she wanted no matter what. A gust of wind blew through, and Dru's hand instantly went up to fix her hair. "Stupid wind.." she muttered. Her eyes scanned the area around her, something wasn't right. She could have sworn she seen something, but she didn't care.

Thor watched carefully as Dru came out of her house. She muttered something under her breath.
This was the demi-god he had to rescue? She didn’t look like she needed saving, or help for that matter. But she was definitely....
“Beautiful....”
Thor caught his breath and put a hand over his mouth. He bleated in embarrassment. Now she would see him, and the plan to bring her to Camp quickly and quietly would be ruined. He was always very straight forward, never very sneaky. He stood up bravely and coughed/bleated to get her attention.

Dru turned around not sure what she heard. "Was..that a goat? Filthy animals." She said in disgust. She moved her hand to fix her perfect hair. Tucking a strand behind her right ear, she looked at the..thing. "Ew," she uttered, "What are you suppose to be?" She tried in no way to hide the venom in her voice, she was cruel to everyone.

Thor stood up to his full height. It was time to take this seriously. She wouldn't listen to him. He quickly thought up a good lie,
"Uhm, I was assigned by your foster family to look after you while you traveled around. I know I don't look it, but I can protect you. I'm your protector."
He fidgeted in his uncomfortable jeans, hoping to get this over with soon.

Dru nearly feel over with laughter. "You? Protect me? Excuse me..thing, do you know who I am?" She walked closer to Thor, she saw something in his eyes. Fear? Oh, did she hope it was fear. She felt the same feeling when she wanted her parents to let her go." Give me some money, I need new boots." She pointed to the ones she was wearing. They looked brand new, in fact, they were. She bought them yesterday. She looked down at Thor, even at his full height he didn't near as tall as Dru. She felt weird standing in the open with cars zooming by, and her talking to this..thing. Something didn't feel right, she wanted to know why this thing was "protecting" her." So, those two sorry sacs hired you to..protect me? Protect me from what? Ugly cloths, 'cause I already do that."

Thor sighed, there really wasn't any other choice. If he didn't give her money, she would kick him to the curb and he would never be able to get her to Camp. But if he did give the money to her, she would keep taking advantage of him and he would still never get her to Camp. Although, the second option seemed more reliable. He bleated nervously and said, "Well, fine, as long as I can come with you to get your shoes." He searched in his pockets and handed her the money.

A sly smile crept onto her lips, she doubted she would even need to charmspeak him,. "Fool." She spoke inside her head. Taking the cash, she would pinch Thors shirt, and drag him behind her. She walked briskly, hoping when she let go she would escape from him. "So, answer my question." She spoke rapidly, wanting to set her plan into action.

Thor looked nervously from right to left. He was never good with these kind of situations. Usually he liked to rescue behaved school kids. But recently Chiron was sending him on harder and harder missions. And this was the hardest yet. Dru Charlesburg, the most beautiful girl in the world. And yet, the most disobedient... He thought quietly to himself. Aloud he said to her, "Ok, whats your question?" OCC: Could you answer for Thor for a little? That'd be great  |

Dru looked furious, or annoyed. Knowing her it was both. She would dig her nails in deeper to Thors skin, hoping to show him how annoyed she was. Sighing she kept walking. "Are you, like, deaf? Why are you protecting me, protecting me from what? And why have I never seen you before today?" She spoke with clear annoyance. She didn't have to look back to see Thors reaction. He stammered, or bleeted, the sound didn't care what sound he rmade. She just wanted answers! "I..um..," He stammered out, "You are in trou- could be in- probably are- GAH!" He he sounded frustrated. He tried to stop her from moving he really did, but he was so mesmerized by her beauty. "Look, I am protecting you from things, things I can't say here, or it might get messy. I need you to follow me to a camp." He spoke with such haste, Dru almost didn't catch him.
"You expect me to follow you, a person I have never seen before to a camp that I don't even know exists? You are dumber than you look, and trust me, you look dumb." She laughed at her own statement. She loved hurting people, she didn't know why, she just did. But, something in Thor's eyes made him look -actually- scarred. Sighing under her breath, she decided to follow him, besides she though she could take him if things came to that conclusion. She's done worse....

Thor and Dru traveled for a couple hours. Dru kept badgering him with questions. Thor just hoped they could get to Camp Half Blood without much, or any trouble. He knew in the back of his mind that that was impossible. But he couldn't admit it to himself. They finally got to Long Island, New York. Thor rented a car and he started driving towards Camp Half Blood, not telling Dru much of anything OCC: I really had no idea where I was going with this  |

Dru had been far to busy thinking of ways of ditching Thor, and leaving him where he couldn't chase after him, if things turned to that. She didn't care that she was leaving her home, she hated it there, and despised her foster parents even more. Dru continued to ask him question, trying to get him to spill something, anything. "God, you are so BORING!' She roared.

Thor jumped at Dru loud voice. He had been lost in thought until she yelled at him. He suddenly jerked the wheel to the side, realizing that he had almost missed the turn.
He replied sullenly, "I may be boring, but my job is to keep you safe."
In an instant, something crashed into the back of the car. Crumpling any of Thors hope of getting to Camp Half Blood safely.
"Get out!!" He yelled at her. And he opened the his car door. Quickly as his feet could carry him, he grabbed Dru's arm and started running. Not looking back. He could see Camp Half Blood in the distance. Almost there.

She could already tell she should have NEVER gotten in the car with Thor. From the suddenly jerking, she was thrown off balance, catching herself just in time for something to crash into the back of them, great. She was dazed, nothing seemed to be working right. She felt Thors grip on her arm pulling her out of a car. She tried to pull away from Thor, something didn't feel right.

As Dru was being pulled along, she looked back to see what had gotten Thor into such a state, only she could do that. Turning around, she saw the strangest creature. She had the body of a horse, but below the waist was like a serpent. "Gross." She managed to utter, she knew this creature, or, she learned about it in Greek Mythology. She knew they couldn't out run it, for it was closing in quickly on them.

Thor almost fainted at the sight of the hideous monster. He knew if he was going to get anywhere, he'd have to take off his human disguise. He reached down and whipped off his shoes and fake feet. Grabbing Drus hand, he ran, as fast as his little goat legs could carry him.
They were so close to Camp Half Blood.
So close to safety...
The monster ran at them, using her full force. Thor whipped a small knife out of his big hat and threw it at the monster. It distracted her for a minute, but now for long.

When she heard the sound of hooves against the pavement instead of shoes, she knew something was not right. She pulled away from Thor when she looked down and saw what he really was, plus the knife didn't help. She stood still as she saw the knife fly past her and was aimed towards the monster. Everything was coming back to her. "Lamia, that's who that is!" Realizing she said something like she cared, she looked at the beast. Using all her willpower into her voice she attempted to charmspeak the creature. "STOP!"

All Thor saw was Dru mutter something, then the creature stop in her tracks. Thor's eyes flicked back and forth between Dru and the monster.
Wondering what in the world was going on he asked, "What is going on?" She didn't seem to hear him so he talked a little louder, "What are you doing?"
He got the impression she was saving their butts.
I'm so useless He thought miserably I'm the one that's supposed to be protecting HER
He glanced around nervously, they were just feet away from the property line.
"Dru, walk very carefully backwards," He said to her, trying to sound as calm as possible, "Once you get past that gate, you'll be safe."

She didn't know how she stopped the thing in it's tracts, she was just glad that she did. "You will turn around and never come after us again!" She spoke with such strength. Listening to Thor, she slowly started to walk back. "I..I don't know what I just did.." She would reach out and grad Thors arm, the act of kindness was about to end. She would pull him on until they passed the Pine tree.

Once they past the border line, Thor passed out in exhaustion. But without resting to long, he pushed Dru farther.
"Go, go to the big red house." He looked at her with a face of anxiety, "Go!"
He didn't know why, but even though they were across the property line, he still felt like they were in danger.
Thor had been known to overreact, and this was probably one of those times. He got up slowly and shook his head. As soon as his mind was cleared, he ran for the Big House after Dru.
