Ty's POV
"Excuse me, Miss Anderson, but shouldn't you be at your cabin's table?" Mr. D asked. I swallowed my last bit of peas loudly.
"We're discussing something important Mr. D," Hazel replied.
"If it is so important, why don't you share it with the rest of the camp?" he countered.
Hazel looked at Cat, but I decided to speak first.
"Don't you know the meaning of personal space? Or privacy? Oh! How about you just get the heck away from us?" I asked.
"I suggest you keep your mouth shut, son of Hades. Otherwise, things might get ugly," Mr. D snapped.
"I thought things got ugly when you walked into the room," Cat said innocently. Everyone in the room stared at her. I saw grape vines start to grow around her arms and legs. Jason put up his hand, and lightning shot at the vines, and turned to dust instantly. Then Hazel started to warm up her hands. She shot fireworks at Mr. D and he shielded them easily.
"I doubt you five can beat me," he taunted. I didn't know how to use my power, but I was slightly afraid of them anyways. I watched as the others started to battle. I laughed at when Mr. D turned Cat into an actual cat and at Hazel when she was going mad like the Mad Hatter. It was when he got hit in the face with a wave of water, though, when I lost it. I stopped laughing when Cat and Hazel returned to almost normal. Like a robot, I got up and stood next to Jason, with Cat by my side. I could barely turn my head, but saw Adam on the other side of Jason, and Hazel by Adam.
"We are the five that are needed most," we said in unison.
"You shall not hurt us," Jason added.
"For we are the children of the Big Three," I said.
"Nothing can stand a chance against us," Adam spoke.
"We are the saviors of Olympus," Cat cheered.
"We stand united," Hazel said. That's when I realized that it wasn't our voices. It was our godly parents speaking. I wanted to fight it, but then we each put our right hand up.
"You have no right to go against us. Be gone!" we yelled in unison again. We each started to glow. I could tell we were about to blast Mr. D when a voice yelled across the room.
"Stop!" Chiron yelled. We stopped glowing. I had control over my body, but we all collapsed to the floor before we could do anything.
"What are you five doing?" Chiron asked. I looked up at the ceiling. This demigod thing was going to be harder than I thought.
Cat's POV
After the dinner fiasco I decided to skip the campfire. I walked into my cabin and looked around. It had spell books all scattered and potion ingredients lying on the floor. The dark stones weren't helping the look. I walked up the stairs and sighed. Then an idea came to mind. I had seen it in a Disney movie once! I sat on my bed and summoned brooms, mops, and buckets of water. I snapped and watched them start to clean. I smiled and went to sleep…..
Time Skip!
When I woke up I could hardly see anything. I couldn't see anything. The cabin, at night, was always pitch black, so if anybody tried to prank us, they wouldn't be able to see. At least that told me it wasn't morning. I carefully got up the tried to find the stairs. Years at the place and you can't even find the stairs. I tripped and slid on my butt stair after stair. Ouch. I grabbed onto a railing and got myself up. I put my hands out in front of me, and started to feel my way around. If I could find the door I could try to see.
I screamed as my head hit something, hard. I held my hand to my head as I kept trying to find my way out. My foot hit something sharp, like a sword blade. I felt it cut through my foot. Another scream. I moved my foot and hopped around. A couple of times I banged my arm or leg against something. I found the stairs again and sighed. I crawled up them. As soon as I got up, I could start to see. Was it morning? I looked out the window. No…
I summoned a mirror to see if I was going crazy. Nope. I could see. I could also see my head was bleeding a lot. Then, my vision went black again. I lost my focus and dropped the mirror, and it shattered. I tried to find the stairs again, but stepped on a piece of the broken mirror with my good foot. I winced in pain. I was never this clumsy. I made my way, painfully, down the stairs. This time, however, I remembered the door was right in front of the stairs.
I opened the door and could finally see the outside world. I stumbled out and smiled, despite the pain. I needed some cheering up. I walked to the Aphrodite cabin and entered it quietly. I looked at the sleeping campers and put up my hand. I watched their toenails grow a foot long. I smirked and put pink nail polish on them. I undid one person's hex, only because I felt sorry for getting her stuck with a cat tail and ears. Kae, I remembered. I knew she would most likely be called Cliff though. I smiled and hoped that this would make up for what I did. Cliff and I have been talking about this prank for a while.
I limped out. I walked across the camp to the Capture the Flag woods. I don't know why, but I walked through them anyways. I found myself at Fireworks beach and collapsed. I brought my face up from the sand and saw a monster. What? I thought the camp had boundaries guarding it. I realized it was a crab. A ten-foot-tall monster crab with a mottled blue and green shell and nasty pincers longer than a man's body!
I was in no condition to fight, but got up to do it anyways. I had no idea what to do so I shot it with some arrows. No good. He swiped at me and I got sent flying. I groaned and sat up. I saw a woman that looked much like me. Too much. Then it clicked.
"Mom?" I asked. Hecate smiled at me. She put out her hand and I took it.
"Hello my dear," she said warmly. I blinked to make sure it wasn't a dream, then smiled.
"What are you doing here? Not that I'm upset," I questioned.
"I felt your pain. You are my daughter after all. You share part of my power," Hecate replied.
"What?" I asked like an idiot. My mom smirked.
"All in time," she said. Those words were going to be the death of me. I glanced at the giant crab and back at Hecate. She then turned around. She made a fist in front of her and bent it in a ninety degree angle so it was facing east. She put her other arm out above her left arm. She did a hand motion as if asking the monster to stop. Then her hands started to glow. A white beam was shot out a hit the crab. The crab fell instantly and turned to dust.
"Woah," I sighed. Hecate turned to me.
"I want you to have this. It will open when the time is right. It gives you not what you want, but what you need," she said. A small heart locket appeared. A small silver light, much like the moon, was given off from it. In a flash, it was around my neck. I smiled.
"Thank you," I breathed. Mom smiled.
"I also wanted to show you this," she told me. A floating picture appeared. It was my Dad, in a tux. He was remarried, I remember being told. I looked at the picture and saw someone I never thought I'd see standing in it. I gasped. Then I felt a pain shoot up my body.
"Ow!" I screamed. That was when I realized I was losing a lot of blood. Hecate looked at me. She muttered something and I felt slightly stronger.
"You shall not die today. I shall wake your campers, without being seen of course. In the mean time, sweet dreams," she said. I opened my mouth to speak, but my world went black.
Hazel's POV
Waking up to a loud air horn was not my ideal. I scrambled out of my bed and looked out the window, only to see bloody footprints on the ground. I threw on my camp clothes and ran to the foot prints. I noticed a girl with grey cat ears and a grey tail come up. Her auburn blonde hair was in a messy ponytail and her amethyst purple eyes looked like they were full of tears.
"What's wrong?" I asked. I then remembered Cat telling me about a failed experiment and looked at the girl. Cliff.
"Cat! She's not in her cabin!" Cliff sniffed. What? How could she even? I looked at the Hecate cabin and saw the door open. You could see straight into it.
"Well come on! Let's go find her!" Jason's voice said behind me. I jumped and saw Jason, Adam, and Ty standing there.
"Yeah! Follow the foot prints," Cliff smiled. I noticed the other campers weren't coming out as we walked across the camp. Interesting. We found Fireworks beach and I saw a body laying in the sand.
"Cat!" I called and ran over to my unconscious friend…..
This is glitching and IDK why... just see ya later Cat Pack!
