It had been a week since Gaara had been sent to this dimension, a lot of interesting things had happened since then. One was that he was apparently allowed to live by Zeus, who is apparently king of the gods. Two he had been taken on a full tour of the camp, he was shown and told about all the cabins and their corresponding gods and goddess which explained why they all looked so different to each other. The third and last was that he had a stalker named Thalia, when he had saved her he never knew from that day that she would follow him everywhere and pester him with questions followed by a small blonde girl with grey eyes. They had moved him into the big house spare room, which had simple furnishings consisting of a bed with a blue blanket and two pillows, a dark brown night stand was next to the bed and a dark brown dresser was under the only window in the room. Mr D with a lot of protest had asked him what type of clothes he would like to wear with the typical orange camp half-blood shirt, he had asked for a long sleeve crimson coat, full length dark red trousers and a grey vest held by a single strap over his shoulder.

Gaara glanced to his left as he walked around the camp perimeter taking in the view of the large forest apparently full of monsters that the demigods train against, it was even to him quite shocking that the gods were so close to humans in this world considering they slept with them on a regular occurrence.

"Gaara what are you doing out here?" a familiar voice yelled to his left. Barely glancing around he was not shocked to find Thalia had found him, she had cleaned up well since when they first met, her clothes she wore now were a black tea shirt with a skull on the front and blue jeans.

"I was just walking around the perimeter of the camp, checking for any monsters"

"Didn't Chiron tell you about the camps magical border?"

"Where I am from we do not trust in an ultimate defence, all it takes is one weakness that can be exploited" Gaara knew from personal experience that there was always a hole in a perfect defence. Gaara stopped his walk around the perimeter and nodded his head back to the camp, when they started there walk back Gaara had to stop from grabbing their little follower as she ran out to grab onto Gaara's leg for a hug.

"Can we play build the city again please?" Asked Annabeth, Gaara looked down at the small blonde girl clad in her new orange camp half-blood shirt then up to the sun to check the time left before they had to go to dinner.

"We only have a couple of hours until we have to have dinner, you can play that game all day"

"Please I want to continue on from yesterday"

"Fine but only till dinner" Annabeth gave him a huge smile and grabbed onto his hand as she led him and Thalia to the beach, where a few days after Gaara had arrived she had asked him if he could help her build a sand castle sky scraper. Once she discover he could use the sand to build anything, she had asked him to build her a specific building that she pointed out everything she wanted in the building like the design, shapes of window and many other things he hadn't known about that went into a building.

They arrived at the beach were a skyscraper the size of Annabeth stood next to a smaller house she had said belonged to her father and step mother. As Annabeth started her next masterpiece Gaara wondered when he was a child if he could have bonded with his family the same way he was with Annabeth. He had spent two enjoyable hours with Annabeth and Thalia, building for Annabeth while talking to Thalia about some of his child friendly missions back home, like when Matsuri and he had searched all around the desert looking for a rare cactus that he had needed for his collection but ended up only coming home with a lizard that had gotten attached to Matsuri's skirt and they hadn't had the heart to kill it to get it off.

Gaara's first meeting with a god other than Mr D was far from what he had anticipated; it was the middle of the day when he had seen a small girl with brown hair sitting and poking the camp fire with a stick and thought he had better talk to her. "I do not think that you should be near the fire without someone watching" Gaara said walking over and sitting down next to the girl, when she turned around Gaara could finally see her face but more specifically was her eyes they were made of fire.

"That is very kind of you to care but I perfectly fine, my name is Hestia goddess of family and hearth" Hestia gave Gaara a smile that against his will made him smile as well, Hestia turned back around and pocket the fire again.

"I wondered if you would come and talks to me, so many see me and do not come over and talk to me" said Hestia

"Why do they not talk to you?" Gaara asked

"No one has time for family these days; I am sorry that you were separated from your own family. Hopefully you can find a new one amongst the other demigod children, as you might have noticed there aren't many demigods here and they would benefit from having you here" said Hestia

Gaara hadn't thought of trying to build a new life here he had been trying to rationalize this as an inconvenient trip and that it would be over soon and he would be back home with his sister and brother. Gaara knew that there was a chance that he would never see them again, he wished he had at least a photo to help remember them he didn't want to forget their faces.

"When I was younger I had no family that loved me, they only feared me or wanted me as a weapon. I had only changed when I met my first friend; Naruto he had pulled me out of the darkness that was my life. It took a few years for my family to actually become a family again, they became some the most important people in my life I will miss them terribly but maybe I can find a new home here" Gaara said.

"Gaara come on time for dinner" A voice he knew was Annabeth yelled, he looked over to Hestia to tell her that he needed to go but she had already left.

"I am coming Annabeth" he called over to her as he stood up and walked over to her, she held out her hand for him to grab onto so he gently grasped her hand as they walked off to get lunch. Gaara had to sit down at the head table with Mr D, Chiron and the satyrs whenever there was a meal because he didn't have a godly parent so he couldn't sit down at any of the other tables. Gaara glanced down at his plate as he grabbed a large piece of brisket and walked over with the rest of the camp to sacrifice a piece of their meal to the gods. Slicing of a piece of brisket he scraped it off into the fire "Hestia" he said and walked back over to the table and sat down next to a wood nymph who giggled at him, Gaara slowly ate his dinner and studied the rest of the camp children who were stuck here because of monsters that attacked them because of their parentage; it reminded Gaara of the hatred between the villages before the war and the shinobi alliance forming to fight a common threat.

Finishing his plate Gaara quietly left only Mr D and Chiron noticed his exit as he walked to the beach sitting on the sand and staring up at the moon that looked nearly identical with the one back home except that there was no evil moon goddess sealed up their only a goddess and her chariot.
