Growing up as the oldest in a family with two younger brothers and a mother who worked two jobs just to pay the rent, Gabrielle Casella quickly became the man of the house. Taking up every job he could to make his mother’s life easier, ensuring he was home in time every night to cook the house dinner, and making sure he was the first one awake in the morning to prepare breakfast and lunches for the lot of them before seeing his brothers off to school.
He was always nice and caring at home, playing the perfect role of both a husband and an older brother because of course their house hold never knew what it was like to have a father. The three boys each had a different father, Ace whom was the youngest, would see his once a year if he was lucky, Conner the middle child, his father was overseas somewhere and then there was Gabrielle, he was told his had ran off at birth. But the family had managed to get on perfectly fine.
As years went by, Gabrielle had picked up a couple of addictions along the way, finding a cigarette in his hand more often, a bottle of alcohol never far away and a new girl on his arm just about every night. At school he became notorious for such things, acting more and more like his father every day only usually with a bigger smile on his face. And still he started to find himself more popular than ever as the rumor mill began to churn its many secrets about the boy.
Apparently there was this one party trick he could perform and turn water into wine just like the gods, but that was just a party trick turned extreme with a bit of teen gossip. Wasn’t it?
And still with all of this going on, the cheerful boy never happened to take any of this home and never managed to forget his family. Every night before he went out he made sure there was dinner in the oven for his mother, made sure his brothers were tucked quietly in bed and that they had everything they needed.
But one day Gabrielle never made it back home from a party, he was just performing his usual ‘magic trick’ when one of the girls whispered something more than intriguing in his ear. He placed the glass of wine back onto the bench and with a smirk across his face followed the girl into the room she wanted to show him so badly, the moment they reached the room she pushed him to the bed, something he expected much different from.
Instead of treating him the way the rest did she just stood back against the door and began to change into something hideous, she was no longer the beautiful blonde that had showed him upstairs. Standing before him was a hideous monster that began to screech and wail in his direction, and he was sure he hadn’t drunken that much.
Before any more than a scratch and a confused Gabrielle could come from the room, one of the teachers had burst into the room, killing the creature and sending the boy to Camp Half Blood, refusing to answer any questions he had.
