CHAPTER TEN
The camp sing along
The night came very fast; not really, the day was very slow. All the activities today were too long, and don't get me started at the battle arena. I guessed tomorrow would be the same or since I got claimed by my dad the next day might be a little different.
Sky, Carlos, and I started walking toward the fire place. I left the picture at the cabin didn't want to bring it, cause it might get damaged in my pocket or some sort of accident could happen, like some girls throwing another bucket of water, or the worst idea that could happen is if one of them had the idea of throwing a lava bucket at me.
I heard a small singing; we might be close to the camp fire I thought.
Carlos said, "You know, you could call Percy. He still lives in New York."
I said, "Yeah, I could"
Carlos continued "And while you're at it, why not ask him to train you?"
Carlos kept saying "Having some brother bonding moments might be good for you two."
Sky said, "Yeah, and can you ask him to bring Annabeth, I really want to talk to her about something"
I said, "Ok, I'll ask Chiron later".
Sky and Carlos said at the same time, ''Ok''.
We got close to the camp fire and I heard many campers singing, some were bad and some weren't that bad, still who am I to critic singing kids? I don't sing at all.
Anyway there were some Apollo kids that played musical instruments and some were singing. I thought those that can't sing can use instruments, and those who can sing can't use instruments. Sky said the same thing and that she had a theory that some could do both things at the same time but only 2 or 3 kids could.
Then this weird sound came out of nowhere. I looked around and you wouldn't believe who was making that sound. It was Carlos. He was trying to do the same thing, but with some weird long flute thing; no idea what it is.
Since I already eat, I thought about throwing up but thank goodness Carlos stopped and went to talk to some campers.
The music stopped and Carlos started singing, he wasn't that bad, it was very good. I remembered this song, it was "Pompeii" from Bastille and the campers where singing it. I was a bit shocked they knew this song and that Carlos can sing, he sang this song as if this one was his favorite. I like this song; it's in my top 10. The only thing I did was join them; I was singing this song with them.
The next song was run, run from Celeste Buckingham and the one that was singing it was this girl that had dark brown hair, looked about 5.0, she had 14 years and looks like she can handle the stage by herself, no fear at all.
Sky told me that her name is Esther McKinley, she was daughter of Apollo, and that she could do anything that Apollo can do. Sky told me that Esther can sing and make poetry, play instruments; she can heal people, and has great archery skills. They were both friends, so that figures how she knows all of that.
The time passed fast, singing, hearing music, eating, having fun, even Sky asked me to dance with her.
It was the best first camp day ever, I know who my dad is, monsters exist, Greek gods exist , now I know I have two half-brothers, I have lots of friends, two bullies behind me, and I got unused powers. What else do I need to have a best day ever?
