Vincent Brooks
Vincent's POV – Monday morning
( at the same time as chapter 3)
I hate living in the Hermes cabin. I feel like I have been sentenced to hell. It's not my fault that Kronos is my dad, if I could have a different parent I would but sadly I can't. I have been pranked so many times and today was the final straw. I have only been at camp for a month and some people still don't trust me.
It's not all bad though. I have made some good friends since I have come to camp half blood, the seven and most of their close siblings seem to like me and I have now been dating my girlfriend Clarisse for a week. Percy is cool, he says that it's wrong to blame people for what their parents did and he knows I am a good guy. That meant a lot to me.
I went to go training but Lauren and Annabeth were in the arena and I didn't want to interrupt their sister bonding time so I went into the woods instead. I like to train alone.
I have a secret spot in the woods were I have pinned targets to the trees and built a makeshift tree house with my weapons and some armour. I like to come here sometimes to get away from it all. I mean I love camp it's great and all that but sometimes I need to be alone and to have my own space where I can do what I want without anyone bothering me.
I train until I lose track of time listening to the sound of my blade slicing through the wood. Then when I feel satisfied with the amount of training I have done I sit down on some tree roots to have a drink.
I miss those days when I could just hang out with my stepmother rhea all day before I found out about all of the crazy gods and monsters stuff. I wish I could go back to all that but I know I have to stay here at the camp to train.
I hear a branch snap behind me and turn to see my beautiful girlfriend standing there watching me
" hey its nearly time for breakfast you coming."
I had completely forgotten about breakfast
" yeah sure."
We take a leisurely walk down to the dining pavilion hand in hand. I feel so lucky to get to see this side of Clarisse. Most people see her as a bully or stuck up but underneath the daughter of Ares attitude is a friendly funny person that nobody else really sees.
We were a bit late to breakfast and walked in right behind Chiron and the whole room was silent. What did we miss?
