2. Marsh

Everything happened so quickly that Marsh barely had time to calculate everything in his mind. First, they were attacked by a 10 foot tall monster, next, he breaks a display case and starts slashing at said monster with a spear, and to top it all off, they were sitting in a taxi with 3 screaming ladies sharing and eyeball and teeth. Could this get any weirder?

Oh, yes it can. Their tutor teacher had kicked off his shoes to reveal his petite little goat legs.

"Hey, Mr. Monroe. Can you please explain to us what the hell is happening?" Marsh asked, trying not to fall over as the taxi swerved left and right.

"Ask yourself! You pulled out a spear and stabbed a Laistrygonian giant! Good job, by the way! You too, Mallow!" he answered, looking quite nervous.

Laistrygonian? Marsh asked himself, not fully understanding his teacher. Although, he wasn't sure he wanted to.

"What in the world is a Laistrognon or whatever?" Mallow asked, making a face as she tried to repeat the name. Marsh couldn't help but chuckle slightly, receiving a hard shove from his sister.

"Laistrygonian. It's a giant cannibal. I don't even know why it was there! You don't smell like powerful demigods! No offence, kids." he explained, putting his hands in front of him protectively when he said the last line.

"None taken, boss." said Kenneth as he relaxed into the seat, "Wait. What is this about demigods?"

Marsh and Mallow also looked expectantly at Mr. Monroe, only tearing their eyes away when they hit road bumps or when the Gray Sisters screamed something strange.

"You're all demigods. You know, half-bloods. I've had my suspicions on the twins but Kenneth, your scent wasn't that strong until after the... you know." he explained, turning his gaze away from the kids.

"So... Are you sayin' that my dad is a god?" Kenneth stated, grimacing at the thought.

"You're saying the our dad is a god?" Mallow asked, adjusting the motorcycles on top of her head.

"What culture is this?" Marsh chimed in, pulling his goggles around his neck.

"Yes, yes and Greek." answered Mr. Monroe, "I hung around because I thought you would be claimed by the time you were 13. I've been teaching you since you were 12, yes? Well. You're all 14 now. They might have just accidentally skimmed past you. They will definitely probably claim you once we reach the camp."

"Claim? I don't understa-" Marsh was cut off when the taxi came to a sudden halt, causing the passengers to jerk forward. All of them rushed out of the car, not wanting to be there any longer.

Marsh looked around, noticing a large pine tree with a strange twinkling sheet hanging on it. Who would hang such a beautiful sheet to dry on a pine tree? He turned his head slightly, stumbling backwards as he noticed the dragon, Peleus. He just chuckled nervously and followed Mr. Monroe as they crossed the Magical border with ease.

"Welcome, children, to Camp Half-blood! The safest place for people like you since last summer!" exclaimed Mr. Monroe proudly. Marsh just cocked an eyebrow, not really sure what to believe.

"Since last summer? You mean this place was unsafe before?" he questioned, noticing that Kenneth had started frowning as well.

"Well, not exactly. It was really safe before the last few years. You see, this thing happened and then there was a big war. People say there's going to be another war. It's fun actually!" he replied, rushing off, "Come on! Let's meet Chiron! I bet he'll be proud of me for bringing back 3 demigods!"

Marsh just smiled awkwardly when his teacher bleated. He watched as Mallow grabbed Kenneth's arm and ran after him. Marsh just followed slightly behind, still trying to process everything in his mind. Now that he thought about it, what time was it? It was only about 3pm when they left. Does that mean that it was around 4 now? He'll have to find out later.

Once Mr. Monroe stopped, they were in a large area where a man on a wheelchair was. He wore a shirt that said 'World's Best Centaur'. Mr. Monroe grinned and strode up to the man, grabbing his hand and shaking it enthusiastically.

"I brought back some demigods, sir! They haven't been claimed yet but I'm sure they'll be claimed soon!" he explained, the grin not wavering from his face, "That's Marsh Thompson, Mallow Thompson and Kenneth Kruger!" He pointed at said person as he introduced them to the man on the wheelchair.

The next thing Marsh new, the man was clambering out of his wheelchair, revealing his horse hind quarters. It was surprising how his horse half was able to fit into the wheelchair. Marsh was awestruck, unable to think of words.

"Wow! You're a horse!" Mallow announced. Marsh just shook his head, thinking about how immature his sister was.

"I'm a centaur, young lady." he said, "My name is Chiron and welcome to Camp Half-blood! Summer has, luckily, just about started, which means you'll be able to make lots of new friends like yourselves. I'm sure that some campers won't mind giving you a tour of the area!"

He smiled at them and walked out of the Big House, looking around for the next three demigods to walk past. Good for him that there was a group of three taking a nice little stroll. Jason Grace, Piper McLean and Leo Valdez.

"You three. Would you mind showing these three new demigods around?" asked Chiron, motioning to the three teenagers who were now standing next to him. The trio looked at each other and shrugged.

"Why not?" stated Jason, "We've just finished so we have extra free time anyway."

Jason, Piper and Leo looked at the three younger individuals, examining them. For the most part, they were probably thinking about their godly parentage. Leo ended up showing Kenneth around while Piper and Jason took Marsh and Mallow.

Piper and Jason took turns explaining the gods, cabins, surrounding areas etcetera as they walked. Marsh seemed quite curious. If he were a son of a god, that would mean he had even more siblings. He just hoped that they weren't as dumb as his sister.

"Who are your parents, though?" asked Marsh, interrupting Jason's explanation of the arena.

"Oh. My father is Zeus, in Greek terms. Piper's mom is Aphrodite, goddess of love." Jason explained, motioning to themselves. Marsh looked at Piper and smiled. Since the moment he laid eyes on her, he thought she was pretty. The way her unevenly cut hair fell over her shoulders just made him smile.

"Wonder who our parents are..." muttered Marsh, taking a sudden interest in his shoes, "I hope it's Athena. I would love to be the child of the goddess of wisdom."

Mallow just shoved him, causing him to stumble over, "Unlike you little pansy, I want to be the child of someone like Ares or Haphaestus! Talk about hands on work, huh? Plus, how the hell would we be children of Athena if we have a mother? If we were adopted, mom wouldn't have kept you."

"Apollo, then. Who knows, maybe we are children of someone smart and you got your brains from your mother." he insulted, folding his hands in front of his chest and scowling.

"My mom is your mom, you idiot!" she shouted, balling her hands into a fist, "Plus, if we're the children of Athena, you're just calling her stupid!"

"So you admit that you're stupid, huh?" Marsh stated, his mouth breaking out into a grin.

"No... I never said that! You tricked me!" she exclaimed, shoving her brother.

"I didn't do-"

"Stop fighting!" Piper stated, to which the twins immediately stopped. They both looked at her, expecting her to say something.

"Should we continue the tour...?" Jason asked, breaking the silence. The twins nodded simultaneously and followed him, looking around the area. When they got to the volleyball court again, Mallow decided to join the few demigods who were just having some fun. Marsh just stood by the sidelines, watching.

Out of the blue, something red starting floating and glowing on top of Mallow's head. Everybody else seemed to understand but Marsh had no idea what it meant.

Much shorter this one. 8( Mallow's is shorter. Have fun guessing who their parents are, kay? kay.
P.S. it's real simple, bro. It's like BAM IN YOUR FACE.

Oh, also. I don't own nothin, bro 8( That's just sad. I own the threw dolts and that satyr that probably ain't gonna return.
Also I love Piper and Jason 8) I couldn't help myself.
