I am out of ideas so I decided to do a one-shot series. Camp Half-Blood: Behind The Scenes.
Don't own PJO.
…
The sun rose above the sky, shining, and as bright as ever.
Trash was thrown around the ground, the wind was whistling, and the campers were asleep, well, all except a couple in the infirmary.
The Apollo cabin was working as usual, but they were in a rather dreary mood.
One Hephaestus camper sat beside a bed. In it, laid a young girl. She couldn't have been older than 14. He had found her in the rubble of the after battle, badly wounded. She would live, they assured him but he wanted to know why she was out there. He remembered her going missing 3 years prior, right under the Hermes cabin's nose.
He sighed. She used to be so energetic and lively, but now she looked pale and close to death.
"They're stupid." The girl said. She cracked a purple cat like eye open, and brushed a strand of white hair away from her youthful yet haunted face.
"What?" he asked, looking up at her. He wanted to hug her, to squeeze her, to help her but she'd probably stab him for it.
"Them." She nodded her head to the tear stricken Aphrodite cabin, with the crowd surrounding them.
"How so?" he asked, not believing his ears. He saw the Apollo kid checking her injuries, Will Solace, listening too.
"They lost one camper. A traitor and they get all the pity. The Apollo cabin lost what? 5 kids? 6? Hephaestus, lost a cabin leader, 4 other campers? Hermes, lost 7, and then 12 undetermined campers. Pollox lost his twin brother and the Aphrodite cabin got all the pity." She answered, staring at the ceiling.
"They're still hurting. Just like you, Amethyst." He answered.
"No." Amethyst disagreed, "I may be hurting here," she pointed to her crushed thigh bone, "And here," she pointed to her eyes which he just noticed were clouded over, "But they are hurting here," she pointed towards her head, "They lost a cabin consoler but let's face it, did they really care?" She shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know, nor do I care. But you Jake, you are hurting here." She pointed towards her heart.
And suddenly, the sun didn't seem so bright anymore.
…
How was it?
I may continue the whole Amethyst thing, maybe not but I personally, if I was in their position, I would have been on Krono's side.
Review!
