Armar has always been an average kid, trying to juggle school, work, and a social life. But today definitely wasn't his average rotten day – it was horrendous. No worse than that, it was catastrophically, hellishly horrendous. Besides failing his test, getting fired from his job at the pizza parlor, and getting rejected by his crush, he somehow ended up being thrown fifty feet through the air by a creature that should only exist in fairy tales and nightmares.
Waking up in a surreal state, he found himself sprawled across the hard marble floor of a grand lobby. The taste of blood mingled with the sour aftertaste of fear in his mouth. He blinked groggily, confusion crowding his mind. But through the thick fog of his memory, two things remained intact; his name, Armar, and an image, a photograph etched onto his heart. Golden tresses that glowed in the sunlight and sparkling blue eyes that held the depths of the ocean – it was the image of a distinctly stunning girl. Aura. His heart spontaneously warmed at the thought of her. But who was she?
Every thought he had was like grabbing at fog — ephemeral and impossible to grasp, glimmers of memories faded as soon as they emerged, leaving an unbearable frustration in their wake. He pushed himself up onto shaky knees, palms flat against the floor, his mind a wild carousel trying to make sense of the situation.
Just when he thought his day couldn't get more puzzling, the elevator dinged, grabbing his already agitated attention. Its ornate door slid open to reveal a tall man with intensely dark purple eyes. His short, black hair perfectly shaped, framing a stern face and a nose that was so perfectly ridged, it might as well have been sculptured. Something told Armar he should know the man; the sense of familiarity sent a shiver down his spine.
The man's lips curved slightly upwards, almost in an affable manner. However, there was a lingering superiority about him that led Armar to believe that he might not be as approachable as he seemed.
He waved at Armar. "Go to Long Island! You'll find the answers you seek there, Armar," his baritone voice echoed through the lobby.
Stunned at the totality of the situation, Armar could only stare at him, his mind racing through a thousand queries. Could Long Island truly hold the answers to all the enigmatic questions buzzing in his head? With his heartbeat loud in his ears, he decided to take the leap of faith, hoping it would fill in the blanks, re-string his disjointed memories, and lead him back to the girl whose image refused to fade, the girl whose radiant smile had melted his heart — Aura.
And so began Armar's saga, the story of one young man's quest, not just to reclaim his memories, but also to recover the fragments of his fractured identity. Little did he know, this adventure was about to take a dangerously fascinating turn, plunging him into a world he wouldn't even dare to imagine existed.

Prompt: Armar was having a rotten day and that was before he literally got smacked fifty feet by a monster. He woke up in a lobby not being able to remember anything but his name. He also had a feeling he was in danger. He started to walk to the nearest exit when the elevator dinged and a man stepped out. His eyes were different colors, one blue and one green, with a stern and angry face like a boss whose employees failed to do their job. The man grinned when he saw Armar and yelled "Son of Death, you can't run from me so fight!" Knowing not why he did it he turned to the man and flicked his wrist that had an Iron and Silver watch on it. The watch expanded into a smoky Silver shield. Then he spun the ring on his left hand, it melted into his palm and started expanding until he held a Smoky Silver sword that glowed purple. The blade was three feet long and perfectly balanced in his hand like it was made just for him. The man growled and started to change, he grew until he was fifteen feet tall with orange fur like a cat. His hands and feet turned into paws and he grew a long spiky tail. He laughed and flicked his tail, three massive spikes flew towards Amar. I raised my shield and the monster's spikes shattered against it. I ran and jumped preparing to stab downward with my sword when the monster roared and smacked fifty feet to the side through a brick wall. I got up groaning when I heard a rumbling sound, it was chariot wheels. I turned to see a girl with sparkling blue eyes and golden blonde hair. She pulled up beside me and gave me her hand, I took it. "Hold on" I said "I am" "Hold Tighter!" She flicked the reins and time and space seemed to bend around us, buildings seemed to fly by us and then as quickly as it began it stopped. I looked over the side to see us above Long Island, "Who are you?" I asked her. "I'm Aura, daughter of Apollo. What's your name?" I don't know why but I trusted her even though I just met her. My name is Armar, Son of Thanatos." I frowned. "I don't have any memories and I don't even know where I'm from" Aura frowned. "That's Strange. I take you to Chiron. He might know what's wrong with your memories." We landed on a track in the middle of a camp. "Welcome to Camp Half-Blood Armar. This is where demigods like us come to train and learn to survive. Now follow me to the big house." she pointed to a big red farm house. I looked down at my hands, my shield had turned back into a watch and my sword was a ring again. I started to follow Aura when the world turned upside down and my vision dimmed and I blacked out.
Response: This is a charged opening indeed. So, Armar has these extraordinary powers, but he doesn't remember how he got them or anything beyond his own name. This setup places him into an exciting adventure as he will strive to regain his memories and maintain safety in the process. I suggest we proceed by placing Armar in peculiar situations that will trigger his memories slowly. These triggers could range from his interactions with other demigods at Camp Half-Blood, his training, or flashbacks during combat with mythical creatures resembling the one he initially battled. Furthermore, why not consider incorporating a subplot where Armar and Aura's relationship deepens, adding another layer to the story? Aura can play the role of his guide and confidante—the friend he can trust amidst his memory loss. This dynamic will add an emotional aspect that easily resonates with young adult readers.
Prompt: Armar was having a rotten day and that was before he literally got smacked fifty feet by monster. He woke up in the lobby not being able to remember anything but his name and the image of a girl with sparkling blue eyes and golden blonde hair and her radiant smile warming his heart, Aura was her name. He got up trying to think but all he could get was fuzzy images that faded as soon as they appeared. The security elevator dinged and a man tall with black short hair, a perfectly ridged nose and dark purple eyes got out. Their eyes met and Armar had a feeling that he should know who the man was when he waved and said "Go to Long Island! You'll find the answers you seek there Armar."
