As I walk out of cabin 10, I bypass the cafeteria in favour of target practice. I ignore the rumbling in my stomach and keep a look out for other campers, because whenever I go to any training arena where there are other people they simply tell me that I can't be good at archery because I'm a daughter of Aphrodite.
"You might break a nail if you swing that sword around" oh hunny I know how to deal with a sword – you just treat it like an extra-long mascara wand. As I reach my destination I pick my favourite bow up and position it in front of me and draw my arm back and slot an arrow in. I narrow my eyes and shoot after a moment's hesitation. Bullseye.
Gods, just thinking of all the injustices I have been forced to face makes me grit my teeth. Bullseye.
Piper-I-woke-up-like-this-Mclean waltzes in and destroys my entire empire. Bullseye.
The seven go on adventures where somehow everyone except them dies. Bullseye.
Silena's a traitor. Bullseye.
My dad – "Holy shit"
I whirl around with a hand pressed to my rapidly beating heart and come face to face with Will and Ghost boy, probably trying to find a place to make out. I let the bow and remaining arrows clatter to the ground and stalk over to them. "Don't mention this to anyone, understand?" I hiss, allowing a small amount of charmspeak into my voice. They nod dumbly, eyes wide. I leave them with the faint scent of my perfume.
I make my way into the forest where I might just be able to get some alone time. "Hey Drew!" No such luck. Maybe if I ignore them they'll go away. "Heeeeey Drew. Drew, can I talk to you for a sec? It's about your dad." I turn to face the ohso annoying person who just will not leave. "What is it hun? Because I've got places to go and people to see." I come face to face with the lil grease monkey from the quest. Lennon? Lion? Something like that anyway. He just grins, unbothered by my irritable nature.
"Well, Travis and Connor found something in the news about someone called Robert Tanaka and it was something to do with his daughter so I figured that it was you and seeing as they're about to play something in the cafeteria you might want to know and with them you can never- "I sigh, effectively cutting him off, while almost dying inside.
"Yeah I get the picture sweetie, look, did they mention what it was about? Because it could be the fact that I got accepted into MIT or it-""What the Hades Tanaka? MIT? No fucking way" Instead of gracing that with a response, I step past him, towards the cafeteria, hoping against all of my intuition (the intuition that tells me that the fates hate my guts) that it isn't what I think it is.
