My dream was… odd. Weirder than the usual dermas.

I was standing inside what looked like a cave, and it was sweltering inside. There were these freaky dog/sea lion/ human hybrids. They were the ugliest things my sub conscience has ever thought of. They were mean and nasty looking. Their dog-like foreheads were beaded with sweat. Their must have been 150 of them. I swear I could almost smell them and that was not a pleasant smell.

The oldest and most disgusting one was talking. "We will take back what was ours! We are certain that they will not find it!" His voice was loud and harsh.

The weirdest part was when he finished his mini monologue, he turned to me. If it was possible to sense people in dreams, he did. Before he could do anything another voice began speaking, "When that boy comes rushing to his fathers rescue, he will fail." The girl stepped forward. She looked human. Dark hair, tan skin, and … red eyes?

"My lady," On of the things started, "how can we be sure that they will send him after his fathers…" He didn't finish because the girls eyes started glowing red. The thing crumpled to its knees as the girl brought up her sword and stabbed it. He turned to dust just like the bird ladies that attacked me.

The girl turned her red eyes on me and I jolted up in a cold sweat. I saw that it was early morning. Our cabbing had a perfect view of the Atlantic ocean and I could see the sun peaking over the horizon. I sat up and stretched, not daring to fall back to sleep for fear of another dream. I considered waking Percy to tell him about it, but what did it matter? It was just a dream. Right?

I looked at the clock. 6:31. Wake up was at 7:30 and breakfast was at 8. I decided to take a shower to kill time so I jumped off of my bed and tip-toed out of the cabin.

As I was walking I passed two boys that looked like they could be twins. They were staring at the Demeter Cabin. "It's beautiful." One of them said. Thats when I noticed that they put pink easter eggs in the grass roof. I figured that they were boys I didn't want near my stuff so I tried to keep them from noticing me. Naturally I steeped on twig. They turned at looked at me. The pair had crooked noes and crocked smiles, to match their since of humor.

"Hey, your the new girl, Meredith." thing 1 said to me.

"Marisa." I corrected,

"Marisa, thats a nice name. I'm Conner." Thing 2 said.

"I'm Travis" the other one said.

"Are you two twins?"

"Nope." they respond at the same time.

"Are you brothers?"

"No."

"Do you have the same godly parent?"

"Wrong again."

They started laughing and I figured that they were related. I catch on fast. I know.

"We're not twins." Travis started,

"But we are brothers," Connor continued,

"Sons of Hermes." Travis finished.

"I heard your from Kansas. Hows life on the farm?" Connor asked. I rolled my eyes at the stereotype. "Kansas isn't all farm land. There is actually a lot of cities." I informed them.

"Oh please I bet you couldn't name one famous person that came from Kansas." Travis challenged.

"Amelia Earhart." I said condescendingly. Travis looked like he was about to say something but he was cut off by a girls voice bellowing "TRAVIS! CONNOR!" A girl was storming towards them. She didn't look so fighting in her flower power pi's but Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb looked scared to death. I quickly made my way to the shower before this Demeter girl turned me into a bush.

After my shower I went back to my cabin. When I walked in I saw that Percy was still snoring at 7:30. I decided to kick him awake. I must have startled him because he jumped so high he hit his head on the bed on top of him I laughed as he stood to get ready. I walked outside to watch the sun rise, it was very beautiful over the ocean. I could have stayed there all day but…

"Come on little sister, its time for breakfast." Percy came out of the cabin, grabbed me by the arm, and dragged me to the mess hall.

Did I do a good job of keeping people in character? I don't think that I did. On the bright side this story finally has some glimmer of a plot! :) really the only thing that is important in this chapter is the dream. the rest is filler oh and the monsters were telkhines
