Here's the next. This is one of my reserved ones, so don't be angry that I didn't choose you... Also, sorry for taking so long, I've just been occupied with wizarding battles.
I'm sad. It's winter and I'm depressed.
My mother, Auxo, is the goddess of summer, and when it's not summer, I get really sad.
I have a semi-personal room for me and a few of the other Horae children. There aren't much of us, as our powers are mainly defensive, and being children of non-Olympian, minor goddesses, your chances of survival isn't good.
I sat and sulked in our little room inside a hollow hole on the outskirts of the woods. My cabin mate Alex, a daughter of Eirene, walked in. She walked like the one son of Khione that I sat across from at the pavilion. It was most likely because his pacifist views and her parentage, being the daughter of Peace and all.
Her golden locks curved around her shoulders in long, flowing waves. She had golden eyes, staring through you, analyzing you, and calculating the best way to dispose of you without an altercation, verbal or physical.
Being underground, there were no windows. I hate it, since there was no natural sunlight and we only had solar powered bulbs, which was a very dumb idea.
While I was sizing up my friend, I heard a small explosion. We ran out and saw that the Khione kid from earlier was battling a son of Hephaestus.
The son of Khione was obviously winning. This came as a shock to me, since he was battling an actual god (One that won't be a main character in this story :D. No promises though...).
I was certain he was letting him win, because he is a god, like I said earlier.
They slashed and parried, blowing their respective element out of their free hands, or using them to charge their weapons. Everyone near the fork in the creek was cheering for one of the demigods. With every block, sparks froze in midair.
They must have had an altercation, as they weren't fighting in the arena. The cheering for the Khione kid was lead by a black haired boy and Hep's was lead by a brunette girl, shouting taunts at his opponent. It didn't help that she was an Aphrodite, charmspeaking him to glance her way and get distracted.
It seemed the cabins had been split between the two cabin groups. If we exclude the empty cabins and ones with only one member, we'd have seven cabins to cheer on one of the boys. The Khione boy had the Hermes, Iris, Hebe, Athena, Demeter, Ares, and Hypnos cabins and the Hephaestus boy had Aphrodite, Apollo, Hephaestus, Nike, Tyche, Hecate, and Nemesis on his side.
After a few minutes, a boy broke them up. The son of Hephaestus falls, spouting a few rhyming words that sound like a prophecy...
Scene :D
That was Amber, sent graciously by my friend Princess Of Flames. She's had that same penname for years... Speaking of years, yesterday was my 2 year anniversary on Fanfiction ;) An accomplishment I'm very proud of. *tears up*
