Percy Jackson community Contest.

Book Scene:

Annabeth kept worrying at her necklace. She was pinching the gold college ring that hung
with the beads. It occurred to me that the ring must be her father's. I wondered why she wore it if
she hated him so much.
"He doesn't care about me," she said. "His wife—my stepmom—treated me like a freak. She
wouldn't let me play with her children. My dad went along with her. Whenever something
dangerous happened—you know, something with monsters—they would both look at me
resentfully, like, 'How dare you put our family at risk.' Finally, I took the hint. I wasn't wanted. I
ran away."

[...]

I wanted to ask what happened, but Annabeth seemed lost in sad memories. So I listened to
the sound of Grover snoring and gazed out the train windows as the dark fields of Ohio raced by.
