Mnemosyne was in a library when she met the charming librarian Sammy Rhodes. After a bit of flirting and then a few dates, both have ended up in a relationship. A few months later Mnemosyne had found herself pregnant with Sammy's child. And then another many months passed, Halia was born. But Mnemosyne was long gone, after leaving Halia at his doorstep.
Mnemosyne leaving saddened Sammy, but he got over it eventually. As Halia was growing up, life was pretty happy and ordinary. She had taken up gymnastics at a young age, she's really flexible and also would be seen practicing stunts like handstands. She took up the hobby of singing and it took only a few weeks till' her voice was, well.. "pitch perfect", her voice was amazing, truly. Halia sang everywhere she went, from her house, to her school, the mall, everywhere basically. Sammy loved to hear his daughter sing, as he found peace in it.
Then Halia had turned 14. As she was walking back from school, this.... harpy flew out of nowhere and it swooped down at her. Halia froze and swiftly put her hands over her head, bracing for attack. But then there was a TWANG and then the harpy dropped dead and crumbled to dust. Halia looked up and around, seeing no one at first.. Then a few seconds later another girl was coming towards her. But Halia didn't stay for a chat, as she quickly ran away before the girl reached her. Once Halia reached her house she decided not to tell her father what had happened, he might think she was crazy. The incident was soon forgotten, or so Halia thought..
School was just ordinary for Halia. She had a few close friends but wasn't one of the popular kids. It was boring.... The held these auditions for a musical group. Halia, she having sang for a lot in her life, grew interested and decided to sign up.
When Mitchell and Skylar had to pick members for the group, they held auditions, expecting no one to sign up, they went to the music room and waited, no one came. They waited for an hour, and no one came. They began to pack their things but when they finished over thirty people came in hoping to earn a spot on the team. At first things appeared to be going down hill. Nobody good was auditioning. Until one girl named Amore Lewis stepped on to stage, after her, the great voices began to follow, with amazing singers like Kayden Darnell, Amore Lewis, Breanna Spicer, Halia Rhodes, Casper Hughes, Eli Beau, Tracey Marvell, and Lisa Flagg, the group was certain they would win.
They practiced every day, and soon they perfected a routine. One late night well Mitchell and Skylar were deciding what the groups outfit would be, Skylar got a phone call, when she left to take the call, the group began filing in and helped Mitchell with the decision. When Skylar returned she looked stunned, she swiftly gave Kayden Darnell her spot as co-leader. No one knew why, but as soon as it happened, they began to practice their routine again. Mitchell knew something was wrong with his sister, but didn't want to ask right away. They began to sing their arrangement of I Cry/Heart Attack/and Die Young. After the practice, everyone left the room, when getting to the lounge, the group heard a small slam in a nearby closet. When Mitchell went to open the door, he was soon knocked out when the door slammed open and knocked him to the ground, Skylar being worried ran to her brothers aid. When she got there two large cyclops stepped out and began to smash the room, trying to hit the group members with their wooden clubs. After a few minutes, laughter could be heard coming into the lounge, being mortals, the cyclopes jumped out the window and ran, not wanting the mortals to think it was just members of the school.
Upon getting to regionals 4 months later, the group easily got first place, now setting their sites on nationals, they trained night and day. Well on their way to nationals, the vehicle they were all in hit what appeared to be a dog. The car flipped violently, proving it was more than a dog. When Skylar and Eli had managed to get out of the vehicle, they discovered what ever they hit was no longer on the road, but they could hear what sounded like a group of wolves charging towards them. When the rest of the group managed to get out of the vehicle as well, the pack of wolves sounded to be getting closer. When they realized they had no way to get to the nationals, the group of wolves had now reached the group of teens. But these weren't wolves, it turned out to be hellhounds, and the group had no weapons to help them in the challenge they soon had to face. Kayden, Amore, and Halia managed to get up in a tree for safety. While Breanna, Eli, Skylar, and Tracey managed to find safety in the ruined vehicle. Leaving Mitchell, Casper and Lisa out in the open with no where to go. The group of hellhounds continued to get closer to the three un hidden teens. When a group of young females charged from the woods and killed most of the hellhounds.
The young ladies deemed themselves as the Huntresses' of Artemis. They agreed to take the teens to what they only told them was a safe place, and when the got there, all three of them managed to read the sign, Camp Half-Blood. The huntresses then knew that the teens were all demigods. Just when the group was about to enter the gates and the huntresses had all left, a hellhound pounced onto Skylar, knocking her unconscious. Halia, worried for her friends safety, called the hellhound and began trying to divert his attention, the hellhound bounded towards her and she motioned for the rest to run into the camp. They heard muffled screams followed by the sounds of a dog wimper. Mnemosyne, was watching her daughter Halia's bravery, and saved her turning her into a memory nymph. When Halia walked into the camp, she witnessed the rest of her friends get claimed by the gods of Olympus.
