I do not own PJO SERIES. All rights to Rick Riordan. Ahhh! Sorry I could not upload earlier. The document got deleted and we had to travel and I couldn't get a stable Wi-Fi connection... All in all, Hermes god of the internet, thanks alot. (note sarcasm). On with mah story.
Zarah Fròlich POV
My brain was still spinning from all the information I had gotten from Chiron. I'd heard worse but still, this shook me. Who wants to hear that they'd been sleeping for the past seventy-odd years? And that their return was like a warning to all existing demigods? No-one, I tell you, No-one.
Anyway, I was being given a tour around Camp by Nicole, the girl who had nursed me to health. She was a daughter of Apollo and she could make a good commentator someday. She gave me a brief run down on how each cabin and part of Camp had changed and I will admit, IT HAD CHANGED.
"so, that's the Zeus cabin."
"Looks empty." I said.
"Well, yeah. Just one kid and she's a Lutenant of the hunters of Artemis." She explained.
I pointed at the obsidian black cabin to the left of Poseidon's cabin and asked: "Which cabin is that? Is it one of the minor god's?"
"Erm, no actually. That's the Hades cabin. "
"Wow. It is not as scary as we pictured it to be. " I muttered.
"We? " she asked.
"Yes. Back then, we used to imagine how it would be if Lord Hades had a tent... I mean, cabin."
"You stayed in tents?! " Nicole questioned excitedly.
"yes. "
She seemed to have wanted a better answer as she physically deflated.
"Oh. Well, I guess it's time for you to meet your new cabin-mates." Nicole said while bowing dramatically.
"I sure hope they are not as terrible as the others back then. " I muttered.
"If by terrible, you mean: Pink, Perfume and Very Talkative, then yes. "
She led the way to the Aphrodite cabin. The cabin looked like a pretty normal cabin cabin on the outside but on the inside, was a whole different story.
We opened the door to a cabin with about eight bunk beds, about fifteen girls and six boys. It was a Pink themed room with ribbons, pictures of Actors and three closets. The noise sounded like a mini hurricane was on.
"Kim, which lipstick should I use? "
"Do these shoes fit my dress, or should I use another one? "
"Don't wear THAT, it clashes with the whole look. "
"What the Hades are you wearing?! You look like an aardvark!"
Those were the types of words that were being thrown around in the Aphrodite cabin.
"Wow. This is... " Nicole started.
"A whirlwind of drama... I guess. " I finished for her.
"Well, I got to go. Have fun. " Nicole told me hastily and then, she was gone.
My siblings managed to fit me into what they called "casual wears". To be honest, I did not feel casual. Maybe because my view of casual was still in 1932, but let's face it, I felt stuffed and bloated.
But luckily, I managed to convince them that I needed to breathe so I was given a pink sweater and some shorts.
There was one girl in particular who caught my attention : Lacy.
She had blonde hair in pigtails, braces and a shirt and pants. She wasn't trying, but she looked stunning. My type of friend cute but dangerous.
Camp half Blood was still hosting their Capture the flag game, but I was not joining in. I needed to clear my mind. The camp had changed since I was last here and I needed to understand my environment.
Another thing on my mind was the Gorgon coven.
Yes, my mother told them to release me.
But the Coven never does anything for the god's without a price. As I was thinking this, I got a vision.
It was pitch black and the only source of light was the flames engulfed a small settlement. I heard hissing sounds behind me, but the sight in front of me was mesmerizing as I did not turn.
"Hisss! Zarah ffFròlich. Your new home is to be Engulfed in flamesss."
I had gotten the message way before you talked, snake.
"BEWARE! "
I returned back to reality with Lacy shaking my shoulders.
"Hey, you okay? "
I tried to put on a confident smile as I replied "Sure. What were you saying? "
She began talking but I had zoned out.
I needed to speak to Chiron, fast.
A/N: Halo! It's Ariadne. I woke up to an email showing me how many people followed my story and I was excited. I mean, I just started fan fiction. You guys are amazing...
My new story is coming up tomorrow and I hope you like it.
Sayonara!!!
