okie dokie let us, as in you fellow readers, enjoy and oh I don't know.... REVIEW

"You're a demigod, and you're not in camp half blood?"I asked

"What if I don't want to go there? Has it ever accured to you?" he said.

"It is required for us half bloods to go to camp to train unless you want to be monster bait. Besides, what if you aren't thinking with your head? Has it ever accured to you?" I said

"I have an objection" he said

"That's nice. I don't want to hear it" I said. I dragged him by the arm to the street corner. Pushing people after people after hobos after prostitutes after well you know where I'm going with this. After a short walk and with him muttering curses under his breath, I got a cab. Yay me!

"Where to miss?" the cab driver asked. He was the average New Yorker type of cabbie. I handed him a piece of paper. After his yellow-ish eyes scanned the little scrawny hand writing, he handed it back to me.

"That's gonna cost ya. You wanna ride? You outta pay" he said.

"I'm paying. What makes you think I'm not capable of not having the amount?" I asked

"Alright" he said and started driving. We had a moment of silence for about... twenty-two seconds.

"I do to think with my head. How do you think I survived?" he asked me.

"That was your oh so great objection? How long did you survive?"

"Few days. Things were getting a little rough where I was living" he said. His gaze on the buildings of Manhattan.

"Oh. Where did you live?" I asked

"Around Maine"

"How did you end up here?" I asked. He looked me straight in the eyes. If possible, his gray eyes got darker.

"Let's just say there was a lot of running,walking, and death"

"Well that's saying a whole lot"

"I don't want to talk about this anymore" he murmered.

"Fine. We're here. Pull over" I said

"Are you sure?"

"I'm pretty sure" I responded to the cab driver.

We opended the doors and walked out. As we almost reached the hill, the driver called out for us to come back.

"What is it?" I asked leaving Kyle behind.

"You're one of them" he said.

"Excuse me. What?" I asked

He pointed at my open back pack. My dagger peaked out a little. I cursed under my breath. Holy Posiedon why?! I ran and grabbed Kyles arm as I passed him. We ran pass Thalia's tree pass the volley ball court and to the big house. Come to think about it, no one is here considering it's not summer. The year rounders looked at me.

"Um... Let go of my hand Tristen" Kyle said while blushing.

"Oh right sorry" my face burned. I'm such a smooth operator...

I entered the Big house.

"Hey Chiron! I was suppose to be at school but I met a half-blood" I said to him. Mr.D looked up from his cards and looked back down.

"Hello Kristen. Kid I don't know" Mr.D said.

"Actually, we do know him. Kyle, where have you been since the Titan's second war? We thought you died" he said.

"What?! He used to go here?" I asked.

"Don't mind her. She now has anger issues. Answer. Now. We don't have all day. I have a game to play" Mr.D said. I sneared at him.

"I chose not to come... For personal reasons" Kyle responded. They just nodded in response.

"Go to your respectful cabin" Chiron said.

We both walked out of the Big house. I walked in to a big wall of black right as we walked out. Wait. It's not a wall.

"Nico?" I asked

"Tristen..."

"uh. Am I missing anything important here?" Kyle asked. Talk about thick air...

"You look pale" I said to Nico. Nothing from him.

"Nico are you going to ignore me now?" I asked

"Are you going to introduce me to him?" Nico asked and tipped his head to Kyle. They were either having an intense staring contest or they're glaring. I couldn't tell.

"This is Nico Di Angelo son of Hades and This is Kyle son of..."I stopped. Whose son was he?

"Son of Athena. Nice to meet you Nico" Kyle cutted in.

"You to Kyle" Nico said.

"You go ahead to your cabin. I'll meet you at dinner" I said to Kyle. He nodded in response and headed of with his hand in his pocket.

"So. You're a year rounder now?" I asked Nico. Trying to catch up to him.

"Yep" he said. We walked further. See, this is my point. If you go and kiss your best friend it is going to ruin the frienship. Why didn't I listen to myself?

"Are we just going to respond eachother with one syllable? Can we just forget anything happend? I miss my best friend..."

"If you missed me why didn't you just IMed me?" He asked. Not looking me in the eye.

"Because I thought this was going to happen" I responded. We we're so into our conversation to notice we were back on the pier of the lake. Our favorite spot. Silence...

"Whatever. Just don't kill anything" I said and left. The tapping of my shoe on the pier. Don't look back don't look back. I looked back. Way to go me. His hands shoved in his pockets. He just stared at the lake. I am so going to regret this...
