History:

Her father, Michael, met her mother when he was in a park. Michael appreciated nature a lot. He spent most of his time sitting down on a bench looking around and sometimes drawing everything beautiful that he sees. There was one time, he saw this beautiful lady. He was so starstruck but he was afraid to approach her. She just sat under a tree also looking around as if appreciating the beauty of nature. Michael tried to draw the beautiful maiden. Later, when he took a glimpse, the lady was gone. Then he was startled when someone spoke from behind him saying, "I look beautiful." He turned and saw it was the beautiful lady. "May I have a look?" the lady asked. Michael was so dumbfounded by that time. That's where their relationship started.

The two got married and had a baby. They named her Paige. But a few months later, the mother disappeared without notice. It saddened Michael so much but that did not stop him from raising his child. Paige was two years old when she learned to read. But she read wrongly everytime. Her father let it slip because he understands... she was still a child. She grew up and went to school. Everytime her teacher asks her to read something on the board, she read it wrongly and her classmates just laugh at her. She did not tell her problem to her dad. She wanted him to feel proud. She practiced and practiced reading but she just didn't get it. Her father noticed her hardships. He did not get mad at her whatsoever. But her wondered what was wrong with her. They found out she had dyslexia and not only that... she had ADHD. That ruined Paige's dreams of becoming a writer. It gave her too much depression. Michael did all that he can to bring back his happy daughter. He remembered archery being his hobby. He taught her archery and she seemed to love it. They used crossbows, not bow and arrows. Somehow, her happiness was brought back. At least in archery, you can just aim and shoot. No letters to read whatsoever.

Paige and her dad always went to the park, where he and her mother met. She was 14 back then and they were in the park. Her father went back home just to get something and he told her to stay. And so she did. But it took her so long to wait and so she decided to go home. It made her worry a lot. She rushed back home and there was no sign of her father. There was only a note on the ground saying, "Go to Camp Half-Blood. You'll be safe there." She had no idea what that camp was or where it was. When she saw the word safe, it alarmed her. She felt the urgency of the note. Whoever wrote the note, she did not know. At the back of it, there was a map. All she had to do was follow it. She packed her things and grabbed her crossbow then went out. She had two purposes: One, find her father. Two, find the camp.

She had absolutely no idea what was happening. She went to the park again to look for her father but again, no sign of him. The bright skies suddenly turned dark as if a heavy storm was about to come. And there it was. Heavy rain fell. She looked around for shelter but all she found were 4 blood thirsty gorgons. They hissed, "Demigod!" Then they started chasing her. Paige stated shooting arrows at them but they just stumbled and stood back up. She ran and then she stumbled upon a big tree. She thought of getting those gorgons up into the sky to stop them from chasing her. She accidentally fell back the tree and touched its bark. The branches stretched and wrapped around the gorgons' bodies. She was surprised and wondered if she did that. Then she thought of squishing them and the gorgons started wailing, "We will get you, demigod!" They squirmed. When she had her chance, she shot arrows again and this time, she aimed for their eyes. "AHH!" they groaned, "We will find and kill you!" Then she ran for her life.

After her successful escape from the gorgons, she felt very weary. Without looking of where she was, she just dropped and became unconscious. When she had finally awoken, she felt the cold wind right at her face. She was up in the sky. She was riding a pegasus with a guy in front of her. She didn't see his face. It was all blurry. But the guys seemed to have tiny horns on the head. He saw Paige was already awake he told her to rest and added, "You're safe. I'll wake you up when we arrive." Paige still felt weak and so she did not complain anymore and just went back to sleep. When she woke up for the second time, she was in the infirmary. She had no idea who brought her here or how he found her but all she knew was she was now in Camp Half-Blood.
