The War Boy and The Dreamer
I: Lavender
"Shut up you big dolts!" I yelled, grabbing my stick, and begun to run backwards into the forest. The two cyclopses continued to run after me, yelling 'violet'. I hated it when people called me Violet,my name is LAVENDER, not Violet! I saw a big pine tree, with some kind of weirdo glowing sweater hanging on the branches. I ran to it, figuring maybe I could climb it. It this point, there were...were those teenagers? surronding the tree. "Run!" One said, he had black hair, and dark eyes. He was wearing a black leather jacket, dark washed jeans and steel toed combat boots. The other two had on bright orange t-shirts that said 'Camp Half-blood' on them. They were twins, apparently. I ran to them, watching in confusion as the two cyclopses stopped in their tracks grumbling at me, calling me a stuipid tasty demigod. "What were those things?!" I exclaimed at the three boys. "Calm down." The one with the jacket said. "No!" I waved my stick at him. I had broken it into a sharp point. He stepped foreward, and yanked the stick from my hand. I grabbed the stick foreward, as he had tried to grab it, yanking him with the stick, only for the other two boys to grab me by the arms. "We won't hurt you!" All three exclaimed in unison. "Fine.. why were they calling me a demigod, whatever that is?" I asked, looking at all three, sighing. "Come with us, a short video will explain everything." The boy with the jacket said, looking at me as if I might try to attack again. I gave him my best lavender-eyed glare. He sighed, looking away. I watched as what appered to be some weird summer camp come into form infront of my eyes. Then I saw the teens playing with...swords? "Is this some kind of roleplay camp?" I asked,looking around with wide-eyed stares..soon, however I noticed that I was slowly becoming the center of attention. I pulled my hood up over my lavender colored hair, and kept my head down. "No, this isn't a roleplay camp." The twin on the left told me. I was soon at a big house. "So, Question Lady, why are your hair and eyes purple?" The one with the jacket asked. "Chiron? New camper!"The twins exclaimed, only to see the centaur appear behind them with several other campers. "Welcome to Camp-Halfblood!" One of the kids said. "Hello.."Chiron said, unsurety in his voice, making the other campers tense around him. He regained his composure immediately. "Let's come in, shall we?" He said, going to get Mr. D. I looked at the other campers, sighing as I pulled my hoodie off, revealing my scar and lavender colored hair completely. "Question Girl, you never answered me." He kept on, wanting his apparent answer. "I was born with it." I sighed, knowing that he would never believe me..but surprisingly, he just nodded. I was ushered into the room, and watched the video explaining about Camp, and demigods and monsters. I fidgeted through the 15 minutes uncomfortably, feeling eyes on me from the other campers. "Hey, , show her around, and take her to the Hermes cabin for now, please?" Chiron asked, looking at the boy with the leather jacket and combat boots - Xander. "Sure. Hey, Question Girl, what's your name?" He asked, as I stood up with a small smile. "Lavender." I said, watching him lead me out of the house, and into the yard. "Well..where would you like to see first?"
