Hi! This is by me and WhosaskingBunny. This is my first story and her second. Nice people will be given s'mores and flames will be used to make said s'mores. Hope you like it!
I was strolling to , as I prefered to call it, the mess hall, an even larger smile on my face. I had just finished upgrading my hammers so that they were even more disguised to the mortals and they packed more of a blow to the monsters. I sat down at Nine's table, my steel toed boots clicking against the stone. I glanced over at the cabin of pink's, as I nicknamed them when I was a new camper, table and noticed one of them out of all the others. Not because she's pretty, I don't swing for that team, but because she radiated a mysterious vibe. A vibe that seemed to draw to her. I smiled at her. She turned and gave me what might have been a smile or a judging glance. I gave her a small salute, and then turned back to Leo, who was telling this joke about a... Monkey and a cat?
After dinner, the girl strode up to me. She said "Hey. My names Kirileia. What's yours?" in an extremely silky and sophisticated voice. I gave her a lopsided grin, and stuck out my calloused hand. "The name's Chrí̱sti Mètallo, but most people say it's too long, so I go by Méta. Nice to meetcha." Kirileia took Méta's hand and shook it with her own smooth, soft hand. "You too." she replied, blowing a couple strands of hair away from her face.
"Just wondering, do you have a nickname too? Kirileia is long too! It reminds me of Deathnote and Star Wars." I said, my mind wandering a little.
"Kiri." She replied, releasing the hand I didn't realize I was still holding, "It's not from any of those." she said coldly. I turned red. "Sorry." I muttered. "Didn't mean to offend." She walked slowly back to the cabin of pink, with a soft "see you around". I was about to reply when Rachel stumbled towards everybody, her eyes glowing green.
"Forge & Dove shall travel to the Blood Countess's land, & win the fanged lord & love's son's hand,
One or the other's will be taken by devil & earth,
& try to bring out the reign of the pravus's birth."
She rasped in her oracle voice, then collapsed. Several campers rushed to her aid. I just stared like an idiot. Chiron stepped forward. "A quest has been set forward!"
