"Come on guys, you're so slow!" Skyler called her British accent showing. The five headed to the Camp Half-Blood beach, her Medium brown hair being blown around by the wind.
"Alright alright, calm down." Rainer said with a tiny German accent appearing, trying to get the hyper teen to slow down.
Alexander was already ahead of the group, getting ready to surf the high waves that were crashing against the shore. For once the beach was actually a good spot for surfing instead of the usual calm waters.
As Alexander neared the shore line and got ready to surf, he noticed something drifting among the waves. Being tossed around and thrown underwater by the huge waves swallowing it up, then re-surfacing.
"H-Hey Dallan!" Alexander called, as Dallan was the closest one to him.
"What's up?" Dallan asked as she jogged up to Alexander, her Blue-Gray eyes fixed on him.
"Look out there and tell me what you see." Alexander said and pointed towards the object that was slowly coming closer to shore.
"All I see is a piece of drift wood, though how it got past the field around Camp Half-Blood. That kinda troubles me." Dallan said, without warning Alexander jumped into the water and started swimming over to the object with his surf board tagging along.
As he approached the object, he started to see it was a person. His eyes got wide as he realized that this person could potentially be dead.
He grabbed the guy and put him on his surf board, then started swimming back to shore while trying to swim against the waves and pulling along a person.
"Did you catch the drift wood?" Dallan called to Alexander from shore, by now the others had set up a small blanket and were playing volleyball.
"More like I caught a person!" Alexander called back at Dallan, who thought he was kidding before she actually saw the person on the surf board.
"Oh my gosh Alexander!" Dallan cried. The others looked over to see what Dallan was so shaken up about, and gasped too as Alexander came onto shore dragging the lifeless body with him.
Leaving their volleyball and blanket, they rushed the body to the infirmary. All the campers gathered inside and outside the infirmary to see who this mysterious person was, though it was mostly girls as word got around that the person was super cute.
Chiron had finally heard about the mysterious person and headed to the infirmary, he shooed away the campers and kept the five that had originally found him.
"Do you know anything about him?" Chiron asked Alexander who shook his head, running his hand through his Dirty blonde wet hair.
"We just found him drifting along the water, if it wasn't for Alexander I'm sure he would've died." Dallan spoke up.
"I'm not so sure." Chiron thought out loud, the five took suspicion to Chiron's words.
"What do you mean 'I'm not so sure'." Cyrus asked, wanting to know more about this 'immortal' guy who Chiron thought couldn't die.
"It's nothing. Just go on ahead and I'll stay here." Chiron said, though he seemed to be paying half attention to them and more on the guy. Reiner was a little annoyed as were a few others, but they obeyed Chiron and left the infirmary.
"What's up with Chiron?" Skyler asked the group as they headed over to the dining pavilion.
"I don't really know, but did he seem that knew the guy?" Cyrus said, Adding to the confusion.
"Let's try not to think about it to much. Anyways I'm starving." Alexander said and the rest of the group nodded in agreement.
As they ate at their cabin tables and the sound of chatter and laughter filled the air, everything seemed to be going smoothly. No one was thinking about war, or thinking about danger, the only thing on everyone's mind was Capture the Flag.
"Do you think we'll be put on the same team as the other boys?" Skyler asked Dallan who was eating some bacon.
"I don't think so, we were put on the same team last time. I'm pretty sure we'll be separate." Dallan replied with a mouth full of food.
"I guess you're right. . ." Skyler said, taking a bite out of her bacon and staring around at all the tables.
Just then Chiron stomped his hoof onto the cold marble, sending an echo through the pavilion that made everyone silent and look over at him.
"As most of you must of already heard, there was a person found on the beach this afternoon. And luckily for all of us they are a Demigod." Chiron said, the Aphrodite table started to whisper and giggle.
"Though, he has lost all memory of who he is and where he is from. A few things he remembers is his name and his age." Chiron said, it seemed that the Aphrodite girls were getting louder. Dallan rolled her eyes.
"Sense Capture the Flag is tonight, he will join the blue team. Which will consist of the Aphrodite Cabin, Hermes Cabin, Zeus Cabin, Ares Cabin."
Chiron went on to tell of the other team and the rules of the game. The five demigods all stared at each other, they knew that Chiron put him on their team on purpose.
"What are we going to do?!" Alexander asked the other four as the teams grouped up.
"Don't ask me, I never wanted him to join us in the first place." Reiner said, Cyrus gave a small glare at him.
"We're stuck with him and we'll just have to work with him." Cyrus told the group, they all nodded and broke from their little circle. As if on cue, Drew walked over to their group with the new guy.
"This is Krotos, and he's 18!" Drew said with an excited tone. Her hand was intertwined with his but Krotos didn't seem to be very happy.
Now that he was awake, the group could see what he really looked like without him being all wet and covered in sand and seaweed.
His hair was cinnamon colored, shaggy and long, but in a good way (Like Tom Cruise in The Last Samurai) his eyes were bright almond colored and were big. His skin was tan like he spent all his life working outside.
"So uh, what's your names?" His voice wasn't as deep as the group thought it would be, but it wasn't to high ether.
"Reiner, Skyler, Cyrus, Dallan and Alexander." Skyler told Krotos who gave a smile.
"Cool. So uh-whoa!" Drew pulled Krotos along before he could say anymore, Reiner even seemed to be a little annoyed at Drew's actions.
"I would usually ignore the Aphrodite girls. But taking advantage of a guy with memory loss? Not cool in my book." Reiner said and Cyrus nodded in agreement.
They all slipped on their helmets, Cyrus over his spiky black hair, Dallan over her black glossy pixie hair, Alexander over his Dirty Blonde spiky hair, Rainer over his blonde short hair, and Skyler over her Medium brown curly hair.
They each grabbed their weapon which consisted of a Scimitar for Dallan, a Lance for Alexander, 2 feet twin blades for Cyrus, twin swords for Reiner and a sword for Skyler.
The group was put into different spots throughout the forest, readying to attack at any given moment. Just as the horn blew, the sound of Demigods running through the forest and the screams of battle were impossible to ignore.
Krotos was put guarding the flag with Drew (of all people), though all she did was talk the whole time. Reiner noticed that Krotos was trying to concentrate but couldn't because of Drew.
Leaving his post, Reiner popped out from behind a bush and walked over to the two. Showing off his swords.
"I think Krotos would like some alone time, with a guy who isn't annoying." Reiner said, glaring at Drew who gave a pretty nasty glare back.
"Why don't you go back to your post and leave us alone. It's not like he wants to hang out with a heartless Demigod anyways."
"You're one to talk." Reiner replied, Drew's face became red with fury and she shot up holding a dagger in her hand. She went to slice at Reiner who dodged with ease.
Drew kept trying to hit Reiner, but she couldn't even land one little sliver on him. He kept dodging her and she kept missing.
Just as Reiner was starting to laugh a little at Drew's attempts, some bushes around them shuffled and Reiner placed a hand on Drew's forehead to get her to stop.
"What are you doing?! LET ME GO-"
"Shut up Heartless." Drew was caught off guard at the nickname and closed her mouth, Reiner and Krotos were looking around trying to see if anything moved.
Shouts and screams came from everywhere as a group of demigods jumped out from all around them. Wielding weapons of every kind and attacking the three.
Drew gave a shriek and ran off, leaving Krotos and Reiner to fend off the flag by themselves. The other team didn't bother to send any of their teammates after Drew as they knew it was a waste.
Reiner gave a whistle and a loud growl could be heard from over head, down from the trees jumped a large Grey wolf that stood by Reiner's side.
"Glad you could make it Günther." Reiner said with a smirk, the group stared at the wolf for a little bit but then started on the attack.
Metal could be heard clashing together and blood trickled down skin as the two teams fought for the flag.
To Reiner, it seemed like Krotos couldn't be touched. He dodged every attack thrown at him but managed to land a blow on every enemy.
Though as Reiner was trying to fight, a Demigod jumped from behind him and locked their arms around Reiner's neck. Even though they weren't supposed to kill each other, Reiner had the idea that this Demigod didn't quiet understand that rule.
"K-Krotos!" Reiner managed to choke out as the Demigod's grip tightened and Reiner's vision was starting to get blurry.
Krotos sliced a Demigod across the back and then turned to the two Demigod's that were trying to kill Reiner. He threw a small stick at the one that was trying to get the flag and it landed itself it her shoulder, then exploded and knocked her back without taking her arm along with it.
He threw another at the one choking Reiner and it landed itself in her back, exploding and sending her away with it next to her friend.
"T-Thanks man." Reiner said and rubbed his throat and then took a deep breath.
"No Prob-" A Demigod that Krotos had knocked to the ground sliced his shin and then pushed him to the ground. Reiner hit the Demigod on the head hard enough to knock him out.
"Hey are you ok-" Reiner was wide eyed at Krotos' wound, instead of red running down his leg it with yellow. BRIGHT yellow, like Golden Ichor.
"K-Krotos w-what's wrong with your blood?!" Reiner asked, shocked and thinking that Krotos might actually be a God.
Though when he blinked the blood was red, normal red colored. Reiner gave a few more blinks and the blood was still red. He let out a sigh and convinced himself it was a trick of the light.
Just then their team ran pass the border holding the Red Teams flag, everyone cheered and Reiner helped Krotos to his feet as the team took off their helmets and celebrated.
After they treated themselves to a few snacks back at the dining pavilion, Krotos joined Dallan and Skyler in the Hermes Cabin as he was an unclaimed Demigod.
He was shoved in a corner and practically laying underneath a bed, Skyler was sleeping in a sleeping bag next to him and Dallan was on the other side.
"So, how's your first day at Camp?" Dallan asked and Krotos gave a sigh.
"I guess it was okay. But what is up with that Aphrodite chick? She's like glued to me." Krotos asked and Skyler shrugged her shoulders.
"They're all like that, they usually all throw themselves at the nearest hot guy." Skyler said and then gave a slight blush as she realized she just called him hot.
"I'll take that as a compliment. Maybe tomorrow will be a little better and I won't get so cut up." Krotos said and Dallan gave a nod, as the lights went out the Hermes cabin slowly fell asleep one at a time. Though Krotos stayed wide awake, not even the slightest bit tired. He wondering why he wasn't asleep like all the others. . . .
