Chiron
"Attention all campers!" Chiron announced at breakfast.
"as you will have all probably heard, there is a very strong, very powerful and dark being very close to our camp and it is drawing many creatures towards us as well,"
This was followed by many mutterings from the campers, and some of the younger ones looked rather scared.
"well, we have decided that all campers aged 13 and over who have been here for 3 months or longer will go outside of the camp and try to get rid of any of the monsters near to our camp."
Whispers of excitement came from the campers; they were hardly ever allowed out of the camp.
"You will all be supervised by your Cabin Leader. However, some of you will accompany me to go and find out what the main being behind all of this disturbance is. You will be:
Percy Jackson
Annabeth Chase
Thalia Grace
Piper McCleon
Leo Valdez
And Nico Di Angelo"
Muttering came from some of the older campers who were disappointed that they wouldn't be able to go but no one found it surprising that it was them that were picked. All of the ones that were chosen, however, had grins on their faces and had gotten up to get ready. All except Nico, who just looked thoroughly bored with the whole thing as he had on his own at his table.
"We are leaving in 30 minutes, so move it!" Chiron bqarked and everyone hastily got up and ran to their cabins to get ready.
Scarlette
Scarlette woke up suddenly and sat up. She was on a park bench; it had been 8 days since she had ran away. It was a warm enough night so she decided not to waste any more money on getting a place to spend the night-she needed food.
She got her phone out and looked down at it. Not a single text or call from her mother. She wished she could say she was glad but still, she felt upset about it. Did she really just not care?! Scarlette shuddered slightly in the wind and pulled her black hoodie closer around her slim figure and drew the hood up over her messy hair. She couldn't shake the feeling that someone was watching her. Feeling uneasy, she stood up, slung her bag, which she had been using as a pillow, over her head and walked slowly towards a bus station; they were cheap enough and sometimes they forgot to charge.
She had been going really slowly, not quite sure how to get to Long Island and still not quite sure why she wanted to go. She was still getting nightmares as well. She was so tired she could hardly walk straight.
Sighing, she looked at the trees around her, the leaves were just starting to show, and the daffodils were raising their sunshine yellow heads to the world- she was interrupted from her thoughts as she heard a loud menacing growling from behind her. Lighting fast, she swung around and saw a guy, maybe about 18, standing a couple of paces behind her, his big black eyes staring at her fixatedly. He had a mat of messy, knotted brown hair and he was grinding his teeth. Scarlette could see a vein throbbing in his temple as he clenched his fists. Suddenly he doubled over in excruciating pain and before she knew it, a massive wolf had leaped on top of her, pinning her to the ground.
Scarlette wanted to scream but she didn't have time, the wolf's jaws were snapping dangerously near to her face as she fought with all her might to keep it away. Suddenly, she saw red. Who did he think he was? Men don't just turn into wolves, and what does he think he's doing, attacking an (almost) innocent girl in a park? She yelled and brought her leg up, with strength that she didn't know she had, she kicked the thing in the stomach and sent it flying off her. She stood up and tried to run away before it got up and attacked her again but then she heard a yell. She turned around, despite her instincts to run and saw that it was a human again. The man made as if to run at her, but he couldn't. Surprised, she looked down and saw that his feet were buried deep in mud and he was stuck. Seeing her opportunity, she turned and ran, pushing her way through the crowd of people that had gathered around her.
She ran and ran, terrified of what would happen if something like that happened again, but then she collapsed against the wall of an alley way and freaked out.
That stuff didn't happen, it doesn't happen, it couldn't have happened…
She started hyperventilating, feeling a tight pain in her chest and she grabbed her head in both hands, rocking back and forth, what was happening? Scarlette couldn't breathe, she was so dizzy. She was more scared than when she had been face to face with that..thing.
