Yes! I say we make her come this year! :):)

I spend the ride planning out how to bypass whoever is supposed to pick me up from the airport as they probably wouldn't be compfortable dropping me off in the middle of "nowhere." I scan the crowded terminal as I walk, looking for the right moment. Suddenly, a woman by a window turns around and stares right at me...

No. No. She's dead. That's...impossible! 

Blonde hair. Grey eyes. Calculating expression. This isn't a coincedence or lie, it's...

"Mom?" The moment I say the word I regret it. It sounds so weak and questioning and unsure.

"Lee," she answers, smiling.

"Don't call me that. That's Dad's name—not mine," I answer automatically.  

"You've always been your own person," she replies; her eyes warm and her stance casual as if I was five again and we were a family. A sudden anger burns inside me.

"You let me believe you were dead." People are starting to look now, but I don't care. 

"I had to. I have my reasons."

"No. If you didn't care to be there for me, I don't want to here you reasons." 

"Lee—"

"KYANITE!" Although her eyes glow with anger, she is clearly sad as well. 

"I'm sorry about your father. I'm sorry you had to go through this." I notice that she doesn't apologize for leaving me orphaned.

"Let's make this right," she continues. Before I have time to react, she snaps her fingers and the airport disappears, to be replaced by a grassy hill with a pine tree growing on it. Camp Halfblood. My mother is gone. Slowly, I trudge up the hill, not sure of what I'll find. As I get closer to the pine tree, I realize that someone is standing next to it. Unaware of me watching, she seems to be saying something to the tree. I sling my bow off my shoulder and grasp it tightly as I approach her just in case. 

"So, this is Camp Halfblood," I say just loud enough to make the girl jump.  

Top!

(Jun is a year-round camper)

Jun--

I crouch behind the Demeter cabin, tuning out the noise of arriving campers. In my palm I hold a seed. It's a seed I've never seen before, a little smaller than an almond, with the dark brown color of apple seeds. Thin grooves run vertically along its elliptical shape but it feels smooth to the touch. I let a bit of soil trickle through my fingers, and, deciding that it's good enough, place the mystery seed gently into the earth. I pat the soil over it until it's hidden, then sprinkle some fresh water over it. Marking it with a small red flag, I'm about to visit my strawberry plant, when I hear my name. 

"Jun!"

It's my friend Rin. She looks a little harrowed, face slightly red.

I reluctantly stand up, heading over to her. "Hey, Rin. Whta's wrong?"

"Clarisse--challenge--Luke," she bursts out breathlessly.

"Er..." I mumble. "Okay." Changing the subject, I lead my friend around to the back of the cabin again. I point at the red flag. "I planted a seed."

"..Okay. And this is new how?" she answers skeptically.

"Well, it's a special seed that I've never seen before. I planted it right before you came." I crouch once more beside it. To my shock, a little green sprout has already appeared. Was I imagining it, or did it just grow bigger?

Whatever the seed contains, I can tell it's something big.

Something almost.. magical. 

(@Zen, sorry if I controlled Rin too much. I wanted to inch the story along)
