Well hello there.

I can only hope you read the first chapter before you came here, or I am going to feel like an idiot.

Anyway, you probably guessed that this story switches point of view (obviously) (otherwise I wouldn't have just said it) (I'm sorry that was mean) between Liz Hale (my OC) and Will Solace.

On a very (optional yo) important note, the next chapter will be an authors note, which will basically give you the cast list for the whole story that I have up to this point. It's totally optional to go by those people as what you see when reading, but that's what I'm writing according to, so your call.

Anyway, this is in Will Solace's POV so have fun with that.

I've made the Apollo cabin my baby. Like, legit I made blue prints and everything. This cabin is the bomb. It is three floors (sue me) because they are the biggest cabin. The first floor is nothing but beds, the second floor is like a lounge area, and the third floor is like closets and junk. They also have the roof, but Will doesn't go out there a lot so it's not very important.

I do not own anything and you are fantastic.

I woke up earlier than the rest of my siblings and climbed the stairs all the way up to the roof.

What a work out.

It was only May, but the temperature had already started to climb. On top of the Apollo cabin roof, I could see all of camp. Before dawn, it's kinda sad looking, but after the sun comes up, the whole camp comes to life and it's a marvelous sight to see.

Especially when the sun hits the Apollo cabin, and it glows so hard you can barely look straight at it.

I sat down in one of the chairs we'd brought up to the roof and waited for the sun to come up. Gradually, all of the year rounders climbed up to the roof, perching in various chairs and on the railing that surrounded us.

It's become tradition for the Apollo cabin to watch the sun come up. It feels like our Dad is there with us-which he kind of is I guess.

"Summer campers come home today." Kayla said absently.

"Hooray." Austin muttered, trying to be sarcastic, but failing due to the way he was smiling at the sky.

I had to agree with him though, the summer campers definitely take a lot more energy than the year rounders.

"Alright everyone," I said, turning my attention away from the sun and to my siblings, "Back inside. Get ready to welcome our siblings." My brothers and sisters groaned and the five of us headed back into the cabin to get ready for the day.

"Hey Nathan, good to see ya bro." I stuck my hand out and Nathan shook it, smiling just as big as I was. I'd set up camp on the front porch with a clip board, making sure I documented every one of my siblings. Chiron wants exact numbers on campers, so I'm not the only counselor meeting siblings at the door.

"Hello Will, good to see you too. This is my younger brother, Josh. Josh, meet our other brother, Will." I stuck my hand out to the kid, and he timidly took my hand. I let out a low whistle and he jerked back.

"Sorry kid, you just look a lot like your brother is all. You'll fit in fine. You can have the bunk under Nathan. Seniority says he gets the top. None of the sibs bite, don't worry." Joshua nodded and then Nathan ushered him inside, both dragging trunks behind them.

I was watching them walk inside when I heard someone call my name, and turned around to find Daniel coming towards me with a small blond boy following him.

"Hey Will, great to see you. This is Brandon, Chiron asked me to bring him over. He's new. Same bunk?" Daniel said his whole bit in less than thirty seconds, and all while pulling his trunk onto the porch and into the cabin. He didn't wait for an answer.

"Hi." Brandon said with a small wave of his hand, even though I was only standing five or so feet away.

"Nice to meet you Brandon, I'm Will. I'm your oldest sibling at camp and the Apollo cabin counselor. If you need anything, just find me and I'll help. You can have the bunk below Daniel, since you too are already acquainted." I smiled at him and gestured to the door. He shrugged and picked up a small duffle bag before walking inside. I wrote his name down on my paper and leaned against the porch railing.

"Will! WILL! WILL!" I stood up and found the person shrieking my name just as she wrapped her arms around my torso. Even though I could only see the top of her blond head, I knew who it was.

"Hey Allona. How was school?" My little sister detangled herself from me and looked up at me with a look on her face that told me it had been perfect. "Oh it was fantastic, of course, I totally missed you guys. Is Ella here yet? Is Kami inside? Oh I can't wait until I get to see everyone. Oh and this is my-our- little brother, Jake. Jake this is our brother Will." Allona took a deep breath and smiled before running into the cabin. Squeals erupted from inside and I assumed she'd found out that Ella was already here.

"I'm Jake Miller. Sorry about Allona. She's been talking non-stop since we left Philadelphia." Jake had brown hair parted on the side, it would've been nerdy on anyone else, but Jake made it work. In the face, he looked exactly like Allona.

"I'm Will. It's okay, she's always like that. Great to meet you. Allona talks about you all the time. I think you'll really dig camp. You can have the bunk under Austin. It's the bed right next to the big one. If you need anything, just come find me." Jake nodded his understanding and pulled dragged his stuff into the cabin. Behind him trailed Scott Wilson, a son of Aphrodite who happened to be carrying Allona's stuff. I let him through with a sigh and added Jake and Allona to my camper list.

The number of campers still standing on the green had decreased dramatically since I had come outside. With a quick check of my watch I confirmed my suspicion that it was almost lunch time.

When I walked into the cabin I realized that only Jasmine was still downstairs, she was sitting on her bunk coloring.

"Hey Jazzy, how was school?" I sat on the edge of the bed and watched her chubby hand go in circles as she colored the small cat on the page.

"It was good. I didn't make any new friends. I have a sister and brother now, and a new dad. A lot changed while I was at camp." Jasmine never looked up from her picture, but I understood what she was saying. "Mommy said I should stay here next year. She said it would be safer."

I held my breath and stared at my hands for a minute, and then I realized Jasmine was waiting for me to say something.

"She's right about one thing," I told her when I looked back to see her lower lip was trembling, "You are safer here. We're your family and we won't let anything hurt you."

"Promise?" Jasmine whispered, sticking her pinky out to me.

"Absolutely." I hooked my pinky into Jasmine's and we shared a smile.

"Come on kiddo, I think it's almost lunch time." I stood up and helped her down off the bed as the conch horn blew and all of our siblings came tumbling down the stairs.

Well?

Again, I hope you are at the bottom of the page because you liked it. If not, tell me what I did wrong and maybe I'll take it to heart and fix it.

Like I said way above, the next chapter is not an actual chapter, but a cast list for your amusement. I worked hard on the casting, so have a bit of mercy.

Stay fantastic yo.
