Continuing on with the series...
I walked through the gates to find the big camp. It had cabins in the shape of a U. Campers were scattering, goin g to activities they needed to go to, holding weapons for them, etc. Saytrs raced around, chasing some dryads, which transformed into a tree. I thought it was the most beautiful place I have ever been to. And then my heart skipped a beat. A boy , about 10, raced across the camp grounds to a machine- like cabin. I knew it was a Hephestus cabin since he was the god of building stuff. It was love at first sight to me.
"Come on, let's get going," called Annabeth.
"Coming!" I called back.
I raced towards a white building that I guess was the headquarters. We walked in and saw an old man in a wheelchair playing a card game with another man. We walked closer when the man suddenly called us.
"Oh, great. MORE demigods," he called out loudly.
"Please Dionysus. These kids must have traveled alone," the man in the wheelchair said,"welcome to Camp Half Blood."
We all greeted each other for the moment.
"I am Chiron, the Camp Director."
He seemed more like he would be sitting in a chair all day, thinking of his younger years. He told us about the camp and what to expect about it. He told us about the Capture-the-Flag games after dinner, Sing alongs (Which I adore doing), and even pegasi riding. He talked to us about who our parents were. We all didnt know who they were. He said we may find out at the bonfire.
We went to the Hermes cabin. It was full of kids who had not been claimed. Others were Hermes kids. We found out they pulled many pranks. Note to self: NEVER leave shaving cream unattended. Soon, it was time to go to dinner. It had tables for each cabin, Ares, Apollo, Hermes, etc. We heard everyone talking, as if we known everyone who was there. It ended quickly ended. We left to the bonfire to the Sing-along. We sang all kinds of songs. Then, Chiron appeared, not in wheelchair form, but in horse form. He stomped his hoove against the wooden stage.
"Demigods! We have three new campers tonight! Here they are: Lyea, Annabeth, Luke, and Thalia!"
Everyone cheered and we walked on to the stage.
"Now, we have been inforced even more with this demigod, who can transform."
Suddenly, everyone gasped. It was not the transforming part. It was the glowing object above my head. It was in the chape of a quiver and bow.
"She's been claimed!" Chiron called," All hail Lyea, daughter of Apollo."
My new cabin mates all introduced me with a welcome present, a bow and quiver of silver arrows. I went to my assigned bed and stared at the ceiling. I then thought of the boy from Hephestus. I ran out the door and ran towards the cabin made of machines. I knocked on the door. Out came a dark muscular boy.
"Hello, I'm Charles Beckondorf, you can call me Beckondorf though," said Beckondorf.
"Hi... Um... I am looking for a boy about 10," I asked.
"Oh, Jake Mason? Sure hold on." He called Jake over to the door.
He came to the door and my heart stopped. He was way cutier than Luke. He had a light brown hair with calm blue eyes I could've stared at for hours. He had a tattered shirt and greasy pants.
"Yeah? Your the new camper right? Lyea?" he said.
His voice calmed me down as if I'm listening to a soft harmony.
"I... Um... Saw you earlier but did'nt get a chance to talk to you."
"Yeah, I was gonna talk to you too."
I started to blush redder than my own armor. "I was... gonna ask if you wanna go to the hill with me sometime?"
"Tonight? If you can."
"Yes!" I leaned in, kissed him on the cheek and ran off...
