Sun and Rain
The last day of camp arrive with a loud knock on the door of our cabin. Following an old camp tradition today we all must wear fancy dress. So within 10 minutes of me waking up all my clothes and underwear had been stolen by boy half in drag.
I grabbed the key for my wardrobe from under my pillow and took out my own costume. The baby blue dress flowed gently and I laid it on my bed next to my shoes. Piper and Hazel squealed as they saw me and argued over who should do my makeup. To end the argument I shout "PING!" whilst holding up my mascara Piper was the first to reply with "PONG!" and so I let her sit me on a chair and begin to turn me into Wendy Darling.
We had done a mixed cabin trail for the last month and so the two girls quickly finished my costume before doing their own. I sat on my bed in front of the mirror singing along with the other girls until Hazel called me over to plait her hair. Whilst concentrating on her hair my mind began to wander 4 billets along to where Harvey would be sat in his own leaf green costume. I desperately hoped that it fit because then he would look extremely cute!
I tied off Hazel's hair and Piper ran over to me snapping me out of my thoughts and put a blue bow in my long hair. As we stood in a trio in front of the mirror we all burst out laughing at the absurdity of our mixed costumes. Hazel was dressed as Catwoman, me as Wendy Darling and Piper as Cinderella!
We walked down together to the square in the middle of camp. Hazel's stilettos clicking with each step, Piper's see through heels making a gentler tap and my blue pumps were silent. All the demigods in the square seemed to be girls; some dressed as men, yes, but still all girls. No one knew what was happening and so a commotion began building loudly looking for answers.
4 Adult women stood at the front and suddenly shouted for our attention. Everyone quickly shut up. "Last week you were all told to find a male counterpart to your outfit who you would be willing to fight for. Did you all complete this task?" One shouted and every girl shouted in agreement back. "Each of your male demigod partners have been taken and are waiting for you to rescue them. This is your task today and the gods have agreed to help make this harder!"
Around me everyone started mumbling to each other and adjusting their costumes ready for a fight. Luckily I was wearing more sensible shoes than most. But once again the women called our attention again. "Around this square there are clues for your first challenge. You may begin!"
