Hi everyone! Here is my newest story! Review please! :)

Chapter 1:

Will PoV:

It snowed. Again. And it's the beginning of summer.

"Chiron! Mr. D!" I whine as I storm into the Big House. "What's up with the weather?"

"What do you mean?" Chiron asks me.

"Haven't you noticed that it's snowing and it's the middle of July?" I remark as I gesture to the falling snowflakes that are all around me.

"Of course we've noticed, but there is nothing we can do about it," Mr. D. snaps.

"But you guys can control the weather on camp…" I start.

"Someone's cursed us," Chiron admits, "and they've blocked all weather except for snow."

"Who would do that?" I ask them.

"Who do you think?" Mr. D. demands.

I think about it for a few moments. "Khione," I sigh. "She's the goddess of snow. But how did she break through the magical borders that protect camp? And, why is she doing this?" I question them.

"How do you expect us to know?" Mr. D. asks me.

I shrug. "But you do have some sort of an idea, right?"

"Has anyone ever told you that you ask too many questions?"

"No," I shake my head.

"Well you do!" Mr. D. tells me.

"No need to be mean to the child," Chiron says to him. "We just need time, William."

"I go by Will," I correct him. "And time is the one thing that we don't have! For all we know, this snow that is falling on his right now can be killer snow that can poison us and we can all die from it! We need to act immediately!"

"We need a plan before we do anything…" Chiron starts but I cut him off.

"I've already got a plan," I tell them. "It's called talking to the Oracle and issuing a quest to stop this problem before it gets even worse!" I fume. Usually, I'm a pretty laid back and easy going person, but when people mess with sunshine, I get mad. I mean, I'm strongest in the sun, and my dad is the god of it. I've got my reasons.

"Listen kid, you can't just tell us what to do!" Mr. D. scolds me.

"But he's right," Chiron replies. "We must consult the Oracle."

Zach PoV:

"Ariella, it's too dangerous for you," I tell my younger sister. We're only half siblings, but I consider her my real sister.

"No!" she defends. "You did it when you were my age!"

"That's because I was a responsible eleven year old, unlike you," I inform her.

"I'm thirteen!" she corrects me.

"Whatever," I sigh. "But you can't honestly think that it's safe. You can't be trusted in a kitchen, Ariella, remember when you burnt down that hotel in Mexico? So what makes you think that I'm going to let you climb a rock wall with lava rushing down it?"

"I'm a daughter of Poseidon," she crosses her arms. "It takes a while to burn me."

"And I'm a son of Zeus, which means I'm stubborn. But you burnt down an entire hotel!" I remind her. "You almost killed hundreds of people!"

"I put the fire out using the ocean water, so what's the big deal?"

"It coasted mom tons of money for all the damage you caused!" I exclaim.

"She could have charm spoken the manager and gotten out of it," she recalls. "She has that ability as a child of Aphrodite."

"Why would she do that? That's not very responsible!" I reason.

"You're so boring!" she pouts.

"I get it from my father," I tell her. "And you're too laidback all the time."

"Well, you're just jealous that Poseidon is better than Zeus." She taunts me. I love Ariella, but she's so annoying sometimes.

"Controlling the skies is much better than controlling water," I reply.

"No! You only say that because your terrified of tsunamis." She challenges.

"And you only think your dad is better because you're scared of heights." I roll my eyes at her.

"Whatever! I'm going to climb it anyway!" she says before running off.

"No you won't!" I scream as I chase after her. It was going to be a long day.

Nico PoV:

"I don't want to fight anymore," I announce.

"You only say that because you're mad that you got beat by a girl, and that girl happens to be your sister."

"Well, yeah, Cassia. I am ashamed. I mean, I've had more experience than you." I admit to her as to the Big House. We just spent three hours spearing and she beat me six times in a row.

"Well, I'm glad that I beat you because I just proved the theory of boys being stronger than girls wrong," she smirks.

"You're also a year older than me," I remind her.

"Years don't matter when we're older," she replies.

I open my mouth to say a really clever response of 'whatever,' but this kid from the Zeus cabin runs over to us. "Hey guys. Have you seen Ariella?"

"Hi Zach," I greet. "And I think she was by the climbing wall."

"NO!" he shakes his head. "This is not good! I told her she wasn't allowed on that!"

"She obviously wasn't listening then," Cassia crosses her arms. "But then again, who does listen to what you have to say? It's all stupid."

"Ouch," Zach smiles. "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me."

"Really?" she smiles fakely as she takes a step towards him. "Because I'm pretty sure I can do some pretty harmful things with words."

I don't really know why, but Cassia and Zach have always had a rivalry. It's really annoying, like I can't even be in the same room with them because they always end up in an argument.

"And if you even attempt to do that, I'll strike you with lightening before you even get a chance."

"I can't die, remember?" Cassia reminds him. "So it would be useless to use all your energy trying to kill me. But you on the other hand, can be killed very easily."

"Guys," I sigh. "Break it up, alright? Zach, go save your really annoying little sister, and Cassia, lay off him. He doesn't deserve to die yet."

"He really does," Cassia mutters to herself.

"You know you love me," Zach smirks before running off in the direction of the climbing wall.

"You know it's true," I tell my half-sister.

"In his dreams," she rolls her eyes.

"Maybe in yours too," I crack a smile. "Trust me, Cassia. Most people who hate someone actually have feelings of love towards them, but they express them in that way because they don't want to admit it to themselves."

"When did you become a daughter of Aphrodite?" she raises an eyebrow at me.

"Excuse me?" I say, obviously offended. "Do you I look like a girl to you?"

Cassia looks from my toes to my head. "Yes," she concludes before laughing. Once we arrive at the dinner pavilion, we sit down at our cabin's table. It's kind of lonely, but I've gotten used to it. I mean, who would want to have kids with Hades?

I don't respond because I realize Chiron has a stern and angry look on his face. "Heroes!" he calls, getting everyone's attention. "Today, a prophecy was given. There is an obvious problem, which is the snow falling, and a quest must be issued."

"WHAT WAS THE PROPHECY?" Clarisse shouts.

A kid from the Apollo cabin, who I instantly recognize as Will Solace, the head camper, walks up to Chiron and says:

"North is the direction the five shall go

To end the era of falling snow

Son of the archer shall lead this quest

Along with brother and sister of different fathers and children of death

The reward of summer is what they will earn

Because of the six that shall return"

Everyone looks around, without making a sound, as if a coat of silence was lying on top of us. "We should have a head camper meeting," I suggest.

"No," Chiron shakes his head. "We must do this here. Now, we need volunteers!"

"Me!" Clarisse stands on her seat.

"No!" Will exclaims. "You're not a son of an archer, even though you are pretty manly, or a sibling, or a sky, or a kid of death."

"So obviously the children of death must be children Hades," Zach shouts.

"Zach! Keep your mouth shut!" Cassia yells back at him.

"I'm sorry to say that both Nico and Cassia must go on this quest," Chiron tells us. We get up from our seats and join them in the center of the dinning area.

"But who are brother and sister?" I ask him. "I mean, there are half siblings, but no full siblings."

"Maybe it's referring to Zach and Ariella," Cassia tells him. "They're brother and sister and have different fathers."

"But it could also refer to the campers who have goddesses as their parents," Zach tries.

"I think Rachel would be more specific if that was the case," Cassia snaps.

"Well, maybe I don't want Ariella to go on this quest!" Zach exclaims.

"You guys must go," Chiron says glumly.

"But then who would be the archer's son?" Ariella asks everyone.

"Apollo's children," Will responds and then gulps. "Which means I have to go."

"Well then, dinner is dismissed." Chiron orders and everyone gets up except for the five of us that have to go on this stupid quest. "You five will leave tomorrow at sunrise, alright?"

We all nod and begin to walk away. Once out of earshot, I complain, "But we didn't even get to eat dinner!"

Hi again! I know a lot of these characters are OCs, so I tried to make you get to know them a little bit in this chapter. If you guys want more information on them, definitely PM me or write it in a review so I can tell you!
