OLIVE P.O.V.
It was my turn of verifying the camp's borders, but I didn't want to go alone. I wasn't scared, I just wanted some company.
I asked to a dozen people, but all of them invented some stupid excuse like: "Tonight I'm having my beauty sleep" or "I need to sleep, tomorrow I'm going to fight with Clarisse".
It was almost midnight when I decided to give up on my idea to find company. I was leaving the cabin area when I heard someone calling me. I turned back, it was Angela. She's the only daughter of Hera; she is usually alone, because she can't fight. But I'm a daughter of Hermes with a heart, so don't really mind to be with her, and she always gives me some real good advices.
She ran to my side.
"Angela? What are you doing here?" I asked her, she probably wanted something. People only come to me when they need something.
"I came to give you some company" she said. One thing I like about her is she can't lie. She always tells the truth. I think it's a family thing.
"Seriously, what do you want?" I asked
"Ummmm…" when she starts doing this I know she's going to speak about something really stupid "I wanted to ask you for some advise…" she finished
"About what? It's not about love, is it?"
"Actually, it is" She usually asks me for love advices. I've already explained her she should talk to some Aphrodite's daughter.
"Angela, I'm the worst person that you could ask for advice about love and friendship. I even think Clarisse is better on affairs than I!" I explained. What was her idea?
"It's not what you're thinking! I've already asked Silena for advice; she said the best way to tell him what I feel is in the fireworks beach at night. She said to ask you to bring some cokes and chips, to make it more romantic" I don't know much about love, but if someone is bringing food, it should be the boy. Anyway, who am I to know more about love than a Aphrodite's daughter.
Angela was in love with a boy. No one liked Angela, no one knew her better than I do, and she hadn't told me anything about a boy.
"who is he?" I asked curious
"I can't tell" she said shyly, as she looked away. I tried one more time, but this time blackmailing.
"If you don't tell me who he is, I won't bring you the food…" this time I broke her
"It's difficult" she looked away "I've never done this before, and I'm…" I stopped hearing what she was saying as I saw what was in front of us.
A really dark creature was approaching us. It had lots of arms, I think they were arms, but they looked more like tissue. The creature was floating, it's eyes had a really white shine, it was almost impossible to look at them. I hadn't seen nothing like it. It sure wasn't an ordinary monster.
Scared, I hide behind a bush. Angela didn't seem to notice the creature. She was still talking. As soon as she stopped to talk, she looked around and didn't saw either the creature either I. I grabbed her t-shirt and pulled her down to the bush.
