History
<!-- Cory and Nyx met at a park and fell in love. soon after, Leo was born. Nyx told Cory that she was a greek goddess, and left Leo with him. Cory was disipointed and ashamed to see what his friends would say. as he expected, his friends turned their backs on him. Cory had no where to turn. alone with his son, he began a new life in northern Canada. Leo grew up without much dicipline, and bad influences at school. he hung out with the wrong people, and was temped and pressured to doing bad things. by the time he was 10, he had already stolen money from a civilian. Cory saw this and felt horrible about it. he took Leo and moved to Chicago, hoping things would improve. but they didnt. things actually got worse. Leo hung out with unspeakable people, girls and boys. at the age of 13, he came home from school to find his father moaning and sobbing on the floor. leo didnt know what to do. his father told him that he promised to keep Leo safe and out of trouble, but everything had turned out wrong. Leo didnt know what to do, or say. he left the house. he came back early the next morning to find Cory dead on the floor. Leo assumed he had choked himself, because there was a bloody rope and scissors next to him, and a large cut in his neck, as well as rope burns. Leo was scared. he didnt know what to do so instead of going to the police, he hid. he hid his father's body and lived alone in the house. he didnt go to school, he didnt do anything. he lived off his father's lifes savings for almost a month, and then the police showed up. they found his father's body and assumed Leo did it consitering his school records. Leo insisted he didnt do it, but the police didnt believe him. He went to live with a quiet, wise old woman in the moountains. every day until he was almost 15, he went to a specealist to see his needs. when the old woman thought he was ready, he was sent to live with his aunt in chicago. she believed he could be good, and so did Leo. but they were both wrong. he got into trouble in the first day back to school. but his aunt insisted it would get better. not wanting to disapoint his aunt, Leo was secretive and hid all his bad grades from her. her got a D average, and he continued to hang out with the same bad friends. he was a rebel. finally, at the age of 15 and 9 monthes, a harpy jumped through the window at school, sending shards of glass flying everywhere. a new girl at school he had fancied since he had moved back from the mountains, Nora McKibben, ran into the classroom while all of his classmates screamed and jumped behind their desks. Nora had a large sword in her hand. she and another teacher killed the harpy together. Leo asked what happened and Nora and the teacher explained everything. The other teacher, Mrs. Smith, said that she was a centaur, and she lived at Camp Half Blood, and Leo needed to go there quickly. Leo looked at Nora's sword, not knowing she was a satyress and said, "thats hot". Nora laughed and said, "Yeah... I'm a satyress." Leo asked "what's a satyress?" Nora explained that she was an animal, and Leo cringed. Leo's aunt arrived several minutes later, after an ambulence showed up to take all of the kids that had been hurt by the glass to the hospital. Leo's aunt gave Leo his mother's gifts (his weapons) that his father had given her from Nyx. Mrs. Smith and Nora took Leo to camp. -->
