Chapter 2
Dyna's View
Dyna appeared in front of a large tree, which she recognised as the camp borders. She suddenly felt different, as if her aura had been reduced. She realised that her adoptive mother had shielded her powers.
She walked through the camp borders, and gasped as she saw hundreds of half-bloods training, or relaxing. She saw a formation of cabins in a half circle in the distance, which she knew as the cabins of the Olympian gods. She then saw many cabins in lines behind the initial cabins, which she remembered as the cabins of minor gods. As she looked at the sight, a centaur walked up to her.
Chiron smiled at the new demi-god. He looked at her aura, which resembled Apollo's, but something was peculiar. Her aura was not fully Apollo's and it was a mix of many others he could not identify. But, what was most peculiar was the fact that she did not look like one of Apollo's children. All of his kids had blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes, but the girl had black hair, dark brown eyes. Chiron dismissed these thoughts when the girl turned to face his way.
"Hello and you must be new here? Well welcome to Camp Half-blood"
"Hello. Wait. You're Chiron!"
Chiron was shocked. Athena's children were the only ones who would recognise him but she did not have her aura at all.
"Yes indeed my child, though it is quite a shock for someone to know who I am. How do you know?"
Dyna replied with, "My mother told me a lot about you and what you do", looking down at the ground.
Chiron decided not to pursue the subject as he saw the melancholy expression on her face.
"My dear, what is your name?"
"Dyna. Dyna Byrne"
It was then that a boy with a Camp Half-Blood t-shirt and blue shorts walked up to the pair.
"Hello Percy. I would like to introduce you to a new camper, Dyna. Could you take her around to the unclaimed cabin and on your way, explain what the camp does?"
"Hello Chiron, and to answer your question, yes I would love to", whilst grinning at Dyna.
Percy grabbed her arm and dragged her in the direction of the array of cabins.
The black haired, green eyed male started to explain to the demigod all about Greek mythology, amazed with how much she knew.
"This is the Poseidon cabin, also known as my cabin as no one else except for me in in there right now"
"Wait. So you are half-brothers with Theseus, the one who betrayed Ariadne, and Orion, who Artemis is believed to have accidently shot at and killed because of Apollo?"
Percy for a moment thought that she was a demigod child of Athena, but one look at her brought him out of his thoughts – Athena's children were always blonde haired and had grey eyes, just like the goddess of wisdom herself.
"Well, yes I am…"
He then looks at her again, and realises that she is much older than thirteen, the latest age a demigod can be before their godly parent can claim them.
"Hey Dyna? Can I ask you a question?"
"Yes, sure"
"How old are you?"
Dyna gave him a curious look and said:
"Sixteen"
Percy reeled back in shock, but continued to take her around. He was ready to blast some gods for their insolence.
They continued their tour, and Percy introduced Dyna to all his friends – like Annabeth, Nico, Katie, Travis, Connor, Clarisse, Rachel and Will.
Just as he finished showing her around, and brought her back to the start point, the conch sounded, and he dragged her to the dining area. Just as she entered, a golden lyre appeared over her head and a ball of red fire appears on her shoulder. The onlookers and Percy stared at Dyna, even Chiron because he had not seen a similar thing. It was then it clicked, and the old trainer made its way to the confused girl, signalling to everyone else to go on with other business.
"My dear, do you know what has happened?"
"Yes Chiron. I guess I have been claimed as Apollo's child and Hestia's champion?"
"Yes you have."
"Why is everyone looking at me like that? It is unnerving"
"Because, my dear child, it has been a while since there was a champion of the gods, let alone a powerful one. Hestia has never had a child before, let alone a champion. Well I think you should go and meet the Apollo head counsellor. I am also guessing you will become the head counsellor for Hestia in war meetings. I believe you have met Will?"
"Yes, I have. I should go and talk to him now. Thank you, Chiron"
"You're welcome my dear"
