Promise me
A/N I finally got the hunger games!
"Its lunch time" he stated after another long silence.
'I'm not hungry'
"You have to eat, your thin" He replied.
'Is that a compliment? I said i'm not hungry'
"You need to eat" He said fiercer than before. She noticed this and frowned.
'Are you okay? You seem really upset about something'
"I'm upset about this whole thing. You being treated like nothing from your mother and all the other demigods, it's not fair"
She sighed before writing, 'Not everything can be fair, nor will they be fair in the future'
"I don't care" he spat.
'You do care, everyone does, all the time' She stared at the window intently, thinking about her brother. The way Michael had brought it up, did make sense to her. why doesn't she look for him. She could leave this place; ignore the rumours, and find him. Her true happiness. She shook her head and noticed Michael staring at her.
"You okay?" She nodded her head, trying to get the thought of leaving out of her.
"We should go get some food, why don't you come with me?" He suddenly changed his whole attitude. He sounded calm and less fierce than before.
'But i'm not hungry'
"So, why don't you join me?" She thought for a second about it. He was offering; she could simply say no, and end this conversation, or she could agree. She might recieve smack about her, but she didn't mind. After all, Martika and Michael would be there, including Piper who was also nice to her.
She agreed by nodding her head. He helped her up and attempted to reach out for her hand. When she looked at him, he faltered and decided not to slowly drawing it back to his regular spot.
"Wait, your telling me, that, to kill a hellhound, it's best to kill him in one hit?" Piper questioned Martika, who just had training. Martika, being a daughter of Athena, was studying this not so long ago, and remembered how to do so on the top of her head.
"Yea, well, it's best to make sure its distracted away-preferbaly- and then you directly kill him, in an organ such as the heart, lung or head. That is if it is a 'him'" Martika explained showing Piper the book about monsters.
"Okay, so if you don't what will happen?" Piper asked again. Michael chuckled and responded for her.
"Then your dead" Martika chuckled knowing the question was to easy to be answered. Zoe was on Michael's left while Piper and Martika was sitting across from them. At lunch, they were able to sit together, for not all the campers ate lunch, unlike dinner and breakfast, where its jam-packed.
"Well, what if its not a hellhound, let's say its a..." Piper thought, "...a wolf?"
Zoe widened her eyes, ultimately thinking about her brother. She looked away from the table, wondering if they knew.
"I don't know, you hardly see those around anymore" Michael replied. Zoe nudged him with her elbow, asking for paper and a pen.
"uh, yea I think I have one" he replied, digging for a pen in his pocket. Martika and Piper looked at them suspiciously, before Piper smiled, whispereing to Martika.
"Aren't they something? They are cute together" Piper sqeauled, but not too loud, careful of the two in front of them. Martika shook her head in response, chuckling at the crazy idea. Piper on the other hand blushed, think of her relationship with Jason and how Percy and Annabeth are. Soon Michael had handed her the slip of paper, and pen he had in his pocket.
She started writing, and Michael shrugged casually, like this was normal.
'Wolves cannot die, their soul and heart, yes; but not all wolves simply die that way, you must take away something they love dearly, that is if you find it, and then you simply weaken them for months-sometimes years- till they cannot hold on any longer' She was careful of what she wrote, careful to not spoil anything about her past and her brother.
"How does she know this?" Martika replied after reading her note. Zoe looked at her deciding ways to reply. When she found her answer, she grabbed the pen and simply was off again.
'Personal experience' She showed the note again. A simple reply; not complicated, nor easy. Piper looked at her as if to go on.
She sighed before writing, 'I can not tell you'
"Okay, well what about a Centaur? And I don't mean Chiron kind, I mean those vicious ones?" Piper asked.
Zoe smiled at the daughter of Aphrodite's curiousity.
"Why do you ned to know these things? Are you going to start a war or rebellion? Why didn't you tell me to join?" Martika splurted out before taking an enormous bite of her apple.
"I don't know" Piper said amazed at the giant indentations in her apple. Nikki, and Mya had just arrived and was now sitting next to Martika, digging into their food.
"Hey Michael, Zoe, Piper, and Martika" Nikki replied. "What we'd missed?"
"Me taking a big bite of my apple" Martika ephasized on the word apple making everyone besides Zoe laugh.
"Want some hummus?" Mya replied, grabbing it out of her pocket.
"Yes! Hummus!" Martika and Nikki announced, grabbing a chip from their plates and dipping it into the hummus.
"So how are you Zoe?" Mya asked. Michael nudged her to look up-disrupting her thoughts of her brother-while Mya repeated the question. She nodded and symboled a thumbs up.
"Okay, where'd my hummus go?" Mya demanded searching franticly for her hummus. Martika clutched it to her right, away from view taking enormous portions of hummus.
"Give it back" Mya and Nikki replied at the same time. Michael chuckled, rising from his seat.
"I've never seen that many girls fight over hummus, that much in my life" Michael replied, making Piper blush.
"I'm not apart of this," she replied. Michael helped Zoe up, and said bye as he headed to walk with her like they used too. before leaving he dumped some food into the pit, and prayed to his father.
"Help me out here, met me in my cabin tonight, please," he said softly, only to remember Zoe couldn't hear.
As soon as they left, the 'hummus' girls, were finishing the last of it, when Mya's half-sister, Brandee walked up.
"Hey, who was that?" She replied pointing to the door.
"Oh that's just Zoe, she's a daughter of gaea" Mya responded grasping for another dip of the last of the hummus.
"Really?" Brandee pondered, considering what could be done about that. She was highly curious about this Zoe, and took it to consideration.
Brandee is up to something, just like she was to me in real life, so yipee. Needed to add more drama so I will put more in the next chapter, where there will be a big shocker. I might write the next chapter, but i'll need to at least get up to chapter two of the hunger games. Cause I really want to read that, and many more books. yes and the facts I blurted with 'the hummus girls' were actuall pretty accurate... To bad only one or two of them will read it.
Enjoy and review,
