Daniel had a painful flash of memory.
A little boy, no older than 6, was protecting a little girl. A man's blows were coming down hard on him. He screamed and cried, but was determined to protect the little girl.
Daniel gasped as he remembered. He gazed at Terra cautiously. That was his sister. He protected her.

"I was scared because they were howling at the door. Then one of them said your name and she said you had to go with them but you couldn't bring me because I was diffrent. I kept beging you not to leave but you said that dad would just hurt us more if you didn't. I knew you were right so I let you go." Terra looked up at the sky, "I never understood why the wolf said I was diffrent untill I was ten and a satyr found me and brought me to camp and you weren't here. That's when I knew I'd never see you again. At least, untill now." She smiled, "I really have missed you Daniel. Being angry is just how I deal with my sorrow."

Daniel closed his eyes again, seeing another painful memory.
It was that little boy again, it was him. He was standing on a front porch in the middle of the night, a backpack slung over his shoulder. The little girl ran after him-Terra. She was pulling on his arm, begging him not to go. He knelt down to her height and spoke to her in a soft tone. Then, he kissed her on the forehead and ran off with the wolves.
Daniel nodded again. "I remember....it's coming back..slowly and painfully." He wrapped Terra in a hug and squeezed his eyes shut. "Oh, Terra. I missed you so much." Daniel wasn't one to cry, but small tears slowly slide their way down his cheeks.

Terra hugged him back, "I'm just glad your safe and if you have to go back to camp Jupiter I'll know where to find you."

"I..I don't wanna go back. I hate it there. But I have permanent marks to remember it." He held out his arm and turned it over, showing his sister his legion tattoo. There were 10 lines. "You have to serve 10 years in the legion. I did. I'm old enough to live in New Rome, start a new life. But I would like to spend time with you. I haven't seen you in 10 years."

Terra smiled, "good. I don't want you to go back either." She stood up and held out her hand to help him, "But me and a daughter of Apollo and a son of Zues are going on a quest to figure out their past. Will you come with us?"

Daniel thought for a moment. "Sure, why not. What harm can it do? Might as well have an expreienced demigod on this trip."

Terra laughed, "you can't get a much more expierienced warrior. I was a hunter of Artemis. I can track and shoot arrows as well as any child of Apollo.

"So, where would we be heading to first? I don't know either one of these kids."

"We'll be going to Seatle for Matthias, the son of Zues. I'm not sure where for Samantha though."
