Why would he want to see Leo? I hear the door of the cabin creak open. I dive under the bed the note falls on the floor next to my head.
"She's going to hate me even more now, listen to me I'm talking to my self." It was Leo, I'm surprised, but who is he talking about. I hear him walk over to the bed. I see his hand.
"What's this?" He said. I push the note forward he grab's it then I hear the note hit the floor and he run's out of the I'm sure he's way gone I sprint out of the cabin and over to mine. There is someone sitting on my bed, he looked like he was a hobo.
"Who are you?" I walk around him to were my sword is.
"You can't tell, that's sad… Really." He got up, then he shimmered into another form. He was now younger, maybe around the age seventeen. I feel like I should say he's hot, but it seems wrong/gross to say that.
"Can you guess now?" He put his hands on his sides.
"Um some really weird hobo guy that likes to show-up out of nowhere." I ask.
"Try Apollo, sunshine."
"Oh, Sorry. What are you doing here er sir?" I put my head down.
"To warn you, you need to go see Chiron."
"But-"I tired to say.
"Trust the sun that shows you the way, To your hearts wish that you wish weren't true, Your journey waits, across the bridge of time and dates."
"Um what is that suppose to mean?" I raise my head and ask.
"You will understand later." With that he disappeared in a Flash of light. That was weird! I shake my head. Just then Pollux walks in the room.
"Do you always let weird hobo's in the cabin?" I asked him.
"What are you talking about?" He asks.
"Oh never mind." I say.
"So how's your wrist?"
"It hurts, not as much as it did."
"Here I brought you an ice pack."
"Thanks." He sits down next to me. He puts the ice pack on my wrist. He looks like he was just run over by a hellhound.
"You ok Pollux?"
"What? Oh yeah why would you ask?"
"Cause you look like you lost a fight with a metal bull, that's why."
"Oh that's nice, I didn't have a good night sleep."
"Are you upset over me being hurt?" I ask in a too sweet voice.
I get up and start to pace around the room. I stop in front of a picture. It looks like Pollux, but some how different. Then I do something weird, As if my body wouldn't listen to me. I feel a tear run down my cheek. This person felt very dear to me.
"Who is this Pollux?" I ask.
"That's my brother…Castor."
"What happened to him?"
"He….." He wouldn't look me in the eye.
"He died didn't he?" Pollux didn't answer.
"Didn't he!" I could feel the tears getting thicker. I was holding them back. And for a short moment I felt depressed. Like I have no reason to live. I stroke the picture once, Then I sit down on the floor. I sink my head into my hands.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked."
"No, you have a right to ask, He was your brother after all."
"Was it when Manhattan shut down?" I cock my head.
"No." He got up. "I have to go see Mr. D, You just hang here."
"Um ok." As soon as he leave's, I get up and walk to the door. I take one final look at the picture. I have to do something. I walk to the camp store. I asked if they had any flowers. Of course they didn't. So I run back to the cabin and grab my sword. I'm going to go into the forest to pick some flowers. Yeah it's a girly thing to do,but I wanted too do it. But after my first night at camp, I'm not going in there empty handed. If you could hear the things in here, you would pee your pants. I guess it took me a little but to find some nice looking flowers. You know it being winter. They were white and light blue carnations. I sit down in the middle of the field of flowers. It smells so sweet, I just want to stay here for ever. Believe me it is amazing.
"Who new that there could be some thing so beautiful where a horrible battle took place." I hear a familiar voice, it's Arianna. I'm happy to see her.
"I…I just want to do something nice for what!"
"You don't have to tell me, I guess he told you about Castor?"
"Well sorta, He-" she cut in.
"He died right where your sitting, we we're sort of friends."
"I'm sorry, will you tell me what happened?" I ask.
She told me about the summer they had the battle of the labyrinth. We we're both started picking flowers, by the time she was done. We had so many our arms we're full. There where some things I want to forget, that she told me. We walk back to camp cabins.
"So he was a good person?" I ask.
"Yes very much, He looked mean and angry but was so sweet."
We walk back past the cabins. There where so many flowers, by the time we go to the cabin my arms felt heavy. I arrange the flowers around the picture. Arianna says a chant in Greek. Something like rest in pieces or I think peace.
They smell wonderful. "Why don't you grow some grape vines?"
"I don't know how too."
"It's easy ok, just think of them growing and then they're there." She said.
"Ok I'll give it a shot." I sigh.
It put all my thought in to it. And I felt like I could grow the world's strongest vine. I open my eyes and, I tied Arianna up by accident. "I'm so sorry Arianna!"
"It's ok Just get me out of here it's getting tighter!"
"Ok, Ok! Um where's my sword?" When I find it, she has turn as purple as the grapes on the vines. I cut her free from the vines. She get's a couple breaths in before we hear foot steps coming towards the door. She quickly put the not hacked up vines under the picture with a card from me when some one knocks on the door.
"Eve, Are you here?" It's Leo. I guess I was still mad at him about yesterday. I don't get up to answer the door. Then another voice comes near the door.
"What are you doing here Leo?" This voice belongs to Pollux.
"I wanted to talk to Eve, why do you care?"
"Because she's like a little sister to me, and if you hurt her again, I will hurt you!"
"I didn't mean to hurt her this morning!" Yelled Leo.
"Just get out of here, if she didn't answer she doesn't want to talk too you."
I guess Leo Pollux came through the door. I just realized that maybe he didn't want to have this for his brother. Arianna and I dive under my bed. We saw Pollux's shoe's go over to his bed. Then he walked over to the picture. "What's this?" He asked himself. He bent down and picked up the card.
"That girl does the girlist things, She does a good job at growing vines though."
I didn't notice Arianna had sneaked to the door and lightly closed it when she left. She a trickster. That girl. It just came to my mind, She has a dad and mom at home… or homes I guess I should say. How could she have three parents? She looks like her dad, not her mom so much. I haven't asks who is her godly parent. I sit there under the bed for a little bit. Pollux was still standing near the picture. It was if someone sprinkled sleep powder on me, because my eye's felt heavy. And I dozed off.
