History:

Sarah McAdams was an aspiring actress living in Los Angeles trying to make a career for herself. Sarah's parents kicked her out at age 18 when Sarah wanted to pursue her dream, wanting their daughter to have a more practical life. So Sarah made her way from the middle of nowhere in Wyoming to LA to become a star. Sadly, she had no luck, and after months of strings of rejections, she found herself depressed at a bar. At this bar she met an intriguing stranger. After a few drinks, they both headed back to sarah's place. The two had an on-and-off again relationship for a couple months before Sarah found herself pregnant. At this point her boyfriend revealed his true self; he was a god, and her child would be a demigod. No matter how much proof her boyfriend showed her, Sarah refused to believe him.

Leaving her Hollywood dreams behind, Sarah retreated to West Virginia, where she lived with her cousin Christy and worked in a diner for most of her pregnancy. During an ultrasound appointment, it was discovered that Sarah was pregnant with fraternal twins. The babies were born, both girls, under the names Aurora (Rory) Agatha McAdams and Amelia (Amy) Alexandra McAdams. The time was difficult. The girls grew up in a small apartment with their mom and her cousin, knowing nothing of their father except that he was "A mess" according to their mother. The girls also had to deal with challenges that came from both of them having both ADHD and Dyslexia. Despite this, the girls made the best of things. Rory found herself with a ton of friends and doing a ton of activities, while Amy had a few friends she was content with and took up archery.

Their lives were going alright until one evening when the girls were ten. They were walking home from a movie with Christy, when Amy heard a snarling coming from the woods. Christy said that it had to be a dog, and they kept walking. Later, they passed an ice cream shop on the other side of the street. Rory ran over to get ice cream, leaving Christy and Amy back outside. while waiting in line, Rory heard a scream from outside, and ran out to see what was the matter. What she saw then she would never forget, a dog, a wolf-no, a beast, was attacking Christy and Amy. Rory, in a natural instinct, ran over to try and help them. However, she was pushed out of the way from a man she recognized as a math substitute, a nerdy looking guy who had seemed disinterested while teaching. She watched as the man attacked the beast, grabbing a sword from his bag, and stabbed the sword through it's head. she watched as the beast fell dead and disintegrated. Unfortunately, it was too late for Amy and Christy. The the beast had killed them and were dead before the ambulance came. I told people about the beast, but nobody believed me. At the funeral, the man reappeared, stating that he was a demigod like me, and that I was in danger and that I needed to go to a special kind of camp. My mother disregarded him as a crazy friend of my father's, and said that I was in no danger.

Despite her saying this, we packed up and moved all the way from our town in West Virginia and took a trek up to a village in Alaska, maybe out of fear, maybe of a way to escape the heaviness brought on by her daughter and her cousin's death in West Virginia. Rory took her sister's old bow and arrow and started practicing archery, sort of in memory of her. After a while, she got pretty good. This is the one time in her life that Rory felt lonely, and she hated it. She became friends with every person she found to somehow fill the void in her heart that her sister's death had left. One friend she made was a girl named Enid, an awkward girl who was the only one around in Rory's grade.

One night when she was sixteen, while walking home from practicing archery, she heard the same growling she had heard all the years before. She turned to see the same beast she had seen all the years before. In an instinct, she pulled her bow and arrow off her back and shot an arrow in it's eye while it was charging toward her. She shot it a few more times, and knowing it was weakened, but not knowing if it was dead yet, ran home. However, when she returned home, she didn't only find her mother, but Enid was there also. Enid explained to her that she was a half-blood; she was half human, and half god. And that she, Enid, was a satyr. Rory starting saying that the idea was crazy, and couldn't possibly be true, until her mother interjected saying that it was true, and that she had known for a while but wanted to keep Rory for herself. Rory was informed she needed to take the trip to Camp Half-Blood, a camp on the other side of the country. Rory was apprehensive to go, but also glad to know that she wasn't crazy from my sights of the beast.
