Dear diary,

As you know it's the mid of December, and I can't wait till Christmas come. Here in camp everything is normal. Well, almost. I'm bullied by Ares kids(usual practic). Thank the gods they don't bother me when Percy Jackson is around. However, he went on some quest or something to save Annabeth. And my usual torturer, Sherman, came to 'visit' me. After breaking my wrist, he tried to push me in the lake. Then something strange happened to me. A boy went past and saw the whole bullying. When Sherman tried to push me in the water the boy stood up and yelled.

'Try with someone from your category!'

Sherman turned around, and glared at the boy.'Someone like you?'

The boy flinched. I don't blame him, I would too. Then my other savior when Percy isn't around, Will Solace came up.

'Sherman, haven't you got other things to do than to bully kids that are way younger than you?'

'Yes, but what I do is not your busyness, Solace.", he groaned and walked away. Will came to see am I ok. After a detailed examination, he asked me.

'Is it only the wrist?'

I nodded. There were a few scratches, but they didn't make it any worse. I always scratch myself somewhere, because I'm a very clumsy person. After fixing my wrist, Will looked at me then at the boy, then he went to the archery class. The boy moved closer. He had black hair and black eyes, and had some strange cards in his hand.

'Hello.'

'Hi.', I looked at him.

'I'm Nico. What's your name?'

'Ember Stark. Are you claimed yet?'

'Clai-what? No, i haven't...'

'ok, because I ain't too.'

Dear diary,

I finally have a friend that i talk to and play with. Yes, it's Nico. I'm so happy that he is my fried(even if I don't understand any Mythomagic...)However, something really strange happened. This morning I looked everywhere for Nico, and found him playing mythomagic with a shadow. A real shadow of a person! When he saw me, his eyes got widen and the shadow disappeared.

'Nick, what was that?'

'Nothing. Absolutely nothing.'

I didn't believed him. I wasn't blind enough not to notice the shadow, after all, but I acted like i agreed with him. That shadow looked just like my...nevermind, i was imagining. But still. The shadow looked exactly like one of my dead brothers. They were triplets-Ven, Chris and Joseph. I wish they were alive. But they died when I was four.

'So, what do you want to do, Em?', he asked me, not looking at me.

I answered him on irish. I always talk in Irish when I'm confused or nervous or angry.

'What?', he glared at me, really confused. I switched to english and offered him a swim. He smiled.

'Only if you promise not to drown me.'

I smiled at him and went to change. After going back to the lake...Yeah I know it's the mid of December. And no, the lake wasn't frozen. Well, after going back to the lake I waited for Nico to come. I had something really special to give him. He came, and honored me with a friendly smile. I giggled and jumped in the lake. He hesitated but followed me, and that was all I was waiting for. I splashed him, h splashed me back and again and again. After we finally got out of the water(and didn't stop laughing), I hugged him. He blushed a little. I let him go and look at him.

'I want to give you something. But I'll give it to you tommorow.', I smiled evily.
