I don't really know about this but I just thought of making one compilation of oneshots. My first oneshot ^_^
And I had a question? Is Zarter and Caia the same?

Oneshot #1: Hazel meets Alyssa
Hazel's POV
Before Percy Arrived at Camp Jupiter
"Nico! Where the hell are we!" I was scared that we might be in another continent.
"I'm sorry," Nico said rather drowsily. "I just wanted us to have fun," he added between a yawn. I knew it. We shouldn't have sneaked off. Well, we did get permission from Reyna. Nico promised to take me out. I mean, I'm over forty years old, and if I'm gonna fool everyone, Nico said I have to know stuff more. Why not have fun while we're at it?
And so, he shadowtravels from somewhere he refuses to tell me where. He said he was sent off by dad to some camp for ADHD kids, but told me that I couldn't know more or try to find him when he's gone, since we're not sure that dad knows that I'm sort of…well, alive.
So right, he just shadowtraveled from camp knows where to who the underworld and to who knows where then to the Legion and doesn't get any rest before shadowtraveling again, and now poof! He's half unconscious.
"You….look around….Hazemsh…..I'll gusht stay here mmmm…forawhile…..and shleee"
Scratch that. Poof! He's unconscious. I sigh. So much for having fun. I'll give him two hours. Then we can look around for a couple more hours then we go home.
I walk around the city. According to a museum I passed by, we're in Brooklyn. I remembered Wayne, from the fifth. He said he was from Brooklyn. I walked pass a park, but no one seemed to be going in, just passing by which was weird. Frank told me that he'd take me to a park on day, that people'd always go in for a walk or a picnic.
I went inside out of curiosity then this feeling hit me. I had a feeling I just passed enemy territory. I had shivers run down my spine. Monster's territory? I had to get out of here…no. If a mortal would accidentally…I closed my eyes and focused on the ground, underground.
Nope, there was not a monster in this park, but…why do I feel like it's been claimed already as if I was…trespassing. I started to leave when I felt something. There was something underground. And very strange at that. There was a kid!
I had to find the kid and get her out!
Alyssa's POV
It's very hard following a path of a god when you've no one to teach you. At least if Horus or Isis were right for me, then I'd have Sadie and Carter to teach me something. At least I won't feel like I'm walking into a minefield blind.
Why exactly? Well, for example, let's say you're following the God Geb's path, you know, the earth and all? And had no idea just how much concentration, how much power, how much energy, you need for a spell or something.
Say for example, you really hadn't an idea, and you put too much energy for, like say for another example digging a pit. And instead of doing a small pit like with just a meter radius, you created one with a much wider range.
And guess what? You were within proximity! Oh goodie!
Not only had you had a wider radius, but also a deeper depth! It's the beeeeest experieeence in the world.
I was drained now. The pit I dug drained too much out of me. I hadn't prepared for it taking too much. I hadn't controlled it. I have to rest before I can do anything else. Ugh. Hopefull, I'd restore enough magic in time before the spell on the park faded. If mortals started coming. Ugh. Sadie would probably be okay with it but Carter would never allow me to go out and find nice ground to train outside of the mansion!
I sat down and consentrated. Oh, Holy Geb, Holy Holy Geb. Somebody's here! Gods no, no, the spell should've kept them a way for at least another hour!
Hazel's Pov
I found the pit. Surely Frank should've told me that park's had pits! I knew they had wells, but if he'd had told me there were pits, now a days, I would've dragged him here already!
I jumped down the pit and got a little thrill out of it. I didn't expect it to be so deep. Thankfull, since it was underground, my father's domain, I landed down my feet.
"Wah!"
I hear a girl's voice. I didn't want to scare her. And what I did was:
"Waaaah!" I shouted. Well….I was scared to.
So she said
"Naaah!"
Which led to me saying
"Gaaaaaah!"
"Are you crazy?!"
"Hey!" I said. "I'm not the one who shouts like—"
"I'm not the only one who shouted!"
"Good point" I said and I lent her a hand.
"C'mon, get up" I ask her nicely
"I don't need help getting up from screaming people who jumps into pits. In a while, don't worry miss, I'll get us out of here, and I'll get you back. What mental did you come from?" she asks.
"I'm not crazy! Look, I came down here because I felt…er, I mean found you. I figured you were stuck so I wanted to get you out" I say
"By jumping in the cliff with me?"
"I'll get us out, but you have to promise to close your eyes close" I say
Alyssa's POV
"No way!"
"Do you want to get out of here?" she asks me.
This girl is crazy. But….if I don't get out of here, Carter would…ugh.
"Fine" I say. And I cover my eyes with my hands. This girl is weird. How can she get us out? I mean I only said fine because, there's nothing to lose right? If she gets me out, great. If she doesn't, then I'll get us out. Sure she'll see me do magic, but hey, I'll return her to the mental institution she's in and they won't believer here there.
She closes her eyes….as if in…concentration…like the way, you would when doing…magic. An idea shot me. What if she's a…? Could she teach me?
But for a long moment nothing happened. She's mental!
I was about to say it when she said "I KNEW IT. YOU WEREN'T CLOSING YOUR EYES! I'm not going to get us out of here unless you close your eyes"
I mumbled a fine. She's crazy, so why not just let her be and let her do what she wants. I close my eyes. After a while, when I thought she was content and sure I had my eyes close, I opened them a bit. We were getting higher!
I couldn't feel a thing, the moving part, but we were rising slowly, as if the ground itself was rising!
Gods of Egypt this is magic! She could…she could be…my
Suddenly I was swerved to the right out of the radius of the put and unto the surface. And the ground from the pit that went up? It got back down again.
I immediately closed my eyes and pretended I just open them
"How did you….?" I started to ask
"I've got to go. Be careful next time little girl"
"Wait! Are you…do you.." I started to ask. Would she know if she was a blood of the Pharaohs? I doubted it. So I settled for this. I can't wait to tell Sadie! Carter might be worried but Sadie'd be thrilled!
"Do you believed in gods?" I asked.
She frozed. She frozed as if Osiris suddenly took her soul away.
So she does know something.
"God? You mean Jesus?" she said. My head fell down so maybe she's not…but the earth!
Her eyes were staring at me dangerously.
"Jesus? Why do you ask?" she said. I pulled the little-girl card.
"No. Gods." At that I could somehow see panick in her eyes, so maybe she really is!
"You see," I said carefull with my words. "Whenever I go to bed, or when I get scared….someone, would read to me myths" yes! Yes! It's ringing a bell to her, or more like she's getting paler.
"What kind of myths?" she said. It wasn't a lie though, Carter does read to me.
Moment of truth. "Egyptian, you know?" I asked. And she brightened up, moment of recognition. Yes! She follows the path of-!
"Oh! I see, Egypt. And the Pharaoh, and Moses! Yeah, I know a bit. The Israelites and stuff," she says and I was disappointed but I tried not to show.
"Well, I better get back now!" she says. And pauses.
"What's your name?" she calls back
"Alyssa!"
"I'm Hazel!"
And then she dashes off to wherever.
Frank's POV
I found Hazel. She just came back from Nico. I was just about to ask about her day when she slapped me in the shoulder
"You, Zhang, where holding out on me a lot! And I thought you were my friend!"
"What?!" I asked nervously. Did I forgot to tell her something
"You never told me parks had pits!" Pits?
"Huh?!"
"You should've told me! Why didn't you tell me! If I had known, I might not have been so clueless that someone would call me crazy! I mean, I'm not crazy, am I!"
"Actually, you're starting to sound—," I tried to say
"If you'd tell me sooner, I would've wanted you to take me to a park sooner! You'd take me to the park next week, right?" What? As in a d-d-d-ate?!...Well, if she have to act like crazy and talk about pits to hang out with her, well, I'd take that any day.
"Sure, Hazel"
Alyssa's POV
"I'm telling you! She follows the path of Geb!" I tried
"But thinks that the Israelites where Egyptian mythology?" Sadie retorted
"You imagined things, Alyssa. I bet you were so tired when you tried magic to get out that you hallucinated that someone was doing it for you. I'm so glad the path of Geb is working out for you! Amazing Alyssa! You can go to the park to train any time!" Carter said ruffling my hair.
Gods, I thought at least Sadie would believe me! Oh well, at least Carter allowed me to go to the park. I might find that Hazel girl there again. If not, I'll search for her. I have to meet her. We'll meet again. And the next time, I'll show her what I can do with Geb's path.
A/N: hope it wasn't boring. i'll try to make it shorter and less boring. Next one shot: Leo meets Zia
