| I was still shooting arrows at the monster. I saw Ameilia try to bring Izzy up to the surface. I shot the monster in the eye and went under. The thing growled underwater and tried to grab Ameilia. I stabbed it with my dagger, making it go back. | |

| After hat felt like forever, I dragged Izzy to the surface. Seth was holding off the monster while I was pretty sure it was grabbing at me or Izzy. I pulled her with as much strength as i could to the edge of the lake and on land. "Seth!" I called, because I was pretty sure we were not going to kill this thing. | |

| "What!" I screamed. The monster was even more mad then before. I shot arrows at it. It growled and opened its mouth. I shot an arrow in its mouth. I went to go shoot another arrow but I had no more. I took out my dagger and went under. I tried to stab it. I resurfaced and looked at Isabella. She was pale and not breathing. Her lips were blue. | |

| I turned to the sound of my name. I stabbed it one more time. it was more worried about that. I ran onto shore. "What do we do?" I asked. I was starting to panic. | |

| "I don't know CPR!" I yelled, "Do you? She is going to die in like two minutes no, probably less if we don't do something! We don't have time to get help! Izzy wake up! You are not dying on me, i have known you for an hour, so wake up!" | |

| "But she has a boyfriend!" I exclaimed. Wow, that sounded stupid. CPR? Why not? I pumped her chest five times. I blew air into her mouth.
I felt air coming into my lungs. I breathed, feeling oxygen coat my lungs. | |

| I sighed, wiping the tears from my eyes. I relaxed my anger and hugged Izzy tightly as she sat up slowly. | |

| I coughed weakly, spitting out some water. Ugh, my head hurt. Dizzy too. I felt the grass and laid back down. "What did I miss?" I asked.
"A lot," I told her. I was glad she was alive. | |

| I nodded. "Yeah I'm fine. I want to go home," I said. What was home for me?
Isabella said she wanted to go home. Isabella didn't have a home. "Camp- Half Blood is your home," I told her. | |

| I looked at Izzy with...pity? I guess. I fel bad for her. I didn't even know what was up with her, I didn't ask either, but I felt bad for her. I glared at Seth for making the comment he did. He didn't have to say that. | |

| I wanted my dad. I wanted him to pick me up and tell me things were going to be okay. I wanted him to hold me whenever I was a little girl. I wanted to hug him and tell him 'I love you' He would laugh and say the same thing back. But, no the stupid hellhound killed him. Now I'm all laone with no family. Friends were great but, family was were the heart was. I wanted to go home. I sighed. "Just- I'll go tomy cabin," I told them.
Ameilia glared at me. I apologized through my eyes. I wish Isabella had a home. | |

| I looked at her sadly and offered her my hand to help her up. She just had a near death experience! She looked scared and looked as if she might cry. | |

| I took Ameilia's hand. "Thanks," I mumbled. I started to walk to my cabin, forgetting all that had just happened.
I looked at Ameilia."Something's wrong with her," I whishpered. | |

| "She almost drowned," I whispered back. "I don't expect her to be right in the head until this passes over. No offense to her at all." | |

| I shrugged. "I'm worried. She could go into depression. It's happened before I think I heard a few rumors," I whishpered. I frowned. She's hiding something. | |

| I shrugged. "We are human. Well, half-human anyway. It's possible. She did lose her dad and step-mom by a hellhound. She never forgave herself after that." | |

| "Oh," I said in realization. "That really sucks. I really take back what I was saying about my life sucking before. She obviously has it worse then me. I feel really bad now. Like crap! That's how I feel. Gods I am such a bad person." | |

| I shook my head. "Your not a bad person You just didn't know about her past. It happens to all of us. My friend Willow had no family from the start," I told her. "Isabella needs to forgive herself. One day, it'll get her in trouble." | |
