Chapter 5:Introduction to Camp

STORY START

Naruto followed Clarisse around as she showed him around Camp Half-Blood eventually stopping over in the middle beside the hearth.

"All right listen up I'm only going to say this once the first two cabins belong to Zeus and Hera respectively followed by the third which belong to Poseidon the fourth belongs to Demeter the fifth belongs to Ares the sixth belongs to Athena the seventh belongs to Apollo the eighth belongs to Artemis the ninth belongs to Hephaestus the tenth belongs to Aphrodite the eleventh belongs to Hermes and the twelfth belongs to Dionysus over there where we came from is the big house and beside it is the medical hut over there is the training ground where we train and there's the dock where we have canoe races and finally the dining pavilion where we have our meals got all that?" Clarisse said as she pointed out the places one by one for Naruto.

"Yeah got it so which is your cabin?" Naruto asked curiously.

"Cabin five" Clarisse answered.

"Ah so your Lord Ares's child huh not bad I hope we can have a spar sometime" Naruto said thoughtfully.

"Heh thanks but flattery won't get you anywhere after all I still have to initiate you" Clarisse said with a sadistic grin on her face.

Just as she said that she moved to put Naruto into a headlock only to grab air. Falling forward she stumbled to the ground.

"How?" Clarisse asked shocked at Naruto's skill.

"You'll see eventually" Naruto said as he helped Clarisse up.

"So where will I stay for now?" Naruto asked Clarisse after she had gotten over her shock.

"Over there in cabin eleven until you are claimed" Clarisse answered.

"Thanks though I am looking forward to a spar" Naruto said as he walked away.

"You better be serious or I'll pound you into dust" Clarisse threatened lightly.

"I'll keep that in mind war girl" Naruto said as he left to go to cabin eleven.

It was a short walk to cabin eleven and what Naruto saw was disheartening he knew that some gods did not claim their children but this was ridiculous Naruto could see that the cabin was past its maximum living capacity. Seeing as almost every inch had someone sleeping on it.

"Hey are you new here" Naruto saw a tall blond around his age approach him remembering his name to be Luke from the time he and his friend Thalia had visited his surrogate mothers camp.

"Been a while huh Luke" Naruto said in greeting.

"Whoa have we met?" Luke asked Naruto.

"Yes you and your friend Thalia visited my mother's camp a few years back" Naruto answered.(A/N: Naruto sees Artemis and two other as his mother's as well as with Hecate so he sees four women as his mother's)

"Wait a minute you're that scrawny kid who was with the hunt right?" Luke finally recalled.

"Yes my name is Naruto and I'm not scrawny" Naruto answered with a slight glare.

"Ahh I see than why are you here shouldn't you be in cabin eight?" Luke asked.

"You see until they claim me I have to stay here for now as not to disrespect my mother's as they will also decide where I will stay." Naruto answered truthfully with an exasperated look on his face.

"Mothers as in more than one?" Luke asked shocked at the knowledge of Naruto having more than one mother.

"Yes I will not explain for now you will see with the rest when I am claimed" Naruto said not wanting to explain more.

"Ah that's alright well pick a spot for now" Luke said as he welcomed Naruto in.

Peering inside Nsruto decided not to lie down on the floor so he jumped up grabbing one of the support beams and climbed on top of it laying down on it.

"Found it" Naruto said sarcastically as everyone looked at him in wonder.

"Showoff" Luke muttered with a smile.

Just as he said that a loud conch sound could be heard and everyone stood up and went outside the cabin.

"Cabin eleven fall in" Luke ordered as the cabin members fell into an orderly line with Naruto making up the rear.

Naruto followed them all too the dining pavilion which he remembered from Clarisse's tour.

Entering he followed the group to a table which was far too small to support their group so some included Naruto opted to seat on the ground.

"Alright there buddy?" Luke asked Naruto to which he received a nod.

After a few minutes a few wood nymphs went around and served each of them a blank plate or bowl which then filled with what they wanted to eat. Naruto was shocked by this since he was used to hunting for his own food. He was also then handed an ampty cup to which Luke told him to name a drink and then the cup will provide it so Naruto had a cup of earl grey which he picked up from one of his mothers.

"Alright brats listen up I'll only say this once we have a two new campers one is still unconscious and the other is here with us Naruto Uzumaki he single handedly defeated the Minotoars that approached us last night" Dionysus said in a bored tone though if one were listening attentively one could tell he was waiting for something to happen. While the rest of the campers looked at him with respect and awe while the children of Ares looked a bit jealous though they still had looks of respect on their faces.

Just as everyone looked at Naruto a bright light flashed above his head and when it cleared he could hear all the demigods gasp. Just as Naruto suspected they would claim him as soon as he entered the camp anyway. Above him were four symbols the biggest was a dark crescent moon with a torch in the middle and the other smaller three was a crescent moon with a bow and arrow, a hearth, and finally an olive tree with an owl and serpent.

"Hail Naruto Uzumaki son of Hecate also claimed by Artemis, Athena, and Hestia" Chiron said as he got out of his shock and was chorused by the rest of the demigods as they bowed to Naruto.

"Is it that shocking?" Naruto asked confused.

"Yes it is brat no one would expect those three to claim you as well if you weren't their child" Dionysus answered with a voice that implied 'you don't say'.

"Ah I see" Naruto said with a sweat drop.

"How is this possible he can't be related to them" Naruto heard a camper say.

"Hold it sigh you see when I was younger I was orphaned so when my birth mother brought me out of where I formerly lived she brought me to lady Artemis to be raised and so I was and when I left Lady Artemis decided to give me some of her blood so I could be a part of the hunt if I see them on my travels. As for Lady Athena and Lady Hestia they saw how my past was and they took pity on me so they spoke with my mother and she agreed so they also gave me their blood making me around two thirds divine and because of that happening they also told me to address them as mother as well" Naruto said explaining to the demigods who nodded in understanding.

"Wait what was your past like to make them adopt you like that" a demigod asked.

"Here I'll show you προβολή της μνήμης(memory viewing)" Naruto said as he created a portal which showed flashes of his life before Hecate came to rescue him.

The whole camp watched when Naruto was a child they saw as he was tossed out of the orphanage how he was beaten on most days by a mob of villagers and the fact he dove into trashcans for his meals. Naruto cut it off before they reached the part where his mother rescued him from the village.

Looking at the assembled demigods he could see that they had tears in their eyes and some were outright crying like the girls from the Aphrodite table. Needless to say everyone pitied Naruto and they could not find any reason to hate him.

"Well sad story aside let us eat before the food grows cold TO THE GODS" Chiron said as he lightened the mood from its gloom and sadness to one of feasting.

"TO THE GODS" the demigods and Naruto shouted back as they wiped the tears from their eyes as they opened their meal. All of them standing to move towards a cauldron where they seemed to give a portion of their meals to their patron god or goddess with Naruto following everyone's lead.

After the meal had finished eating Dionysus had one more shocking news for them.

"Oh yes before I forget the council has decided to test its current champion against the camp so this capture the flag game will be the camp versus Naruto by himself" Dionysus said half-heartedly as he left the dining pavilion leaving everyone in shock.

'He can't be that good can he?'

'Punk thinks he can take on the whole camp huh?'

'Damn I need to think of a new strategy'

These were the majority of what everyone was thinking as Dionysus left them.

"So Naruto what are you planning to do now with your living arrangements?" Chiron asked as he approached Naruto who had moved to the empty table of Artemis.

"I plan to sleep in Artemis's cabin for tonight though I may interchange between hers and Athena's" Naruto said as he finished his meal.

"I see and what of your activities since you are the new councilor of cabin eight?" Chiron asked seriously.

"I don't plan on joining any class to hide my skills for now though I will use the training grounds to keep in practice until the capture the flag game." Naruto answered earnestly.

"Well if that's all Chiron I'm of for now" Naruto said as he excused himself heading out of the dining pavilion ignoring the longing gazes the Aphrodite cabin was giving him.

As Naruto exited the dining pavilion he immediately turned towards the woods where he found a secluded area to train and practice his magic until night fell where he only appeared to take his meal and left once again to train.

It was near midnight when Naruto finished his training he then approached cabin eight to which he noticed a few people still awake staring out their windows or in Grover's case hiding poorly behind a bush.

"I can see you guys you know" Naruto said loud enough to be heard when suddenly a few harpies heard the noise and started to flock towards him to devour him as per camp rules.

Seeing this Naruto decided to show of as little as possible and just charged up his fists with holder magic. (A/N: the same magic as Bazett Fraga McRemitz) this magic allowed him to strengthen his fists and feet allowing him to reach strengths comparable to Hercales.

As the harpies neared Naruto punched the closest one in the head causing the harpies head to come clean off its shoulders. The rest of the harpies seeing this decided to converge on Naruto all at once only for Naruto to jump high in the air and start kicking the harpies which caused them to explode when he hit them.

Seeing no harpies left Naruto deactivated his holder magic and proceeded to enter cabin eight ignoring the awestruck looks of the campers who were wide awake and Grover who was shivering in fright at Naruto's skill.

Finally reaching the door of his mother's cabin Naruto entered and found the inside to be like his mother's camp with designs of the forest on the walls as well as small paintings that look like the hunters themselves. Naruto ventured in further finding it to be like a camp style with the beds orderly aligned and had trunks at the foot of each bed most likely for the hunter's things. Seeing that all the beds were obviously occupied Naruto went in further only to stop when a bright light appeared at the end of the room to which when it faded revealed a door with a note attached to it.

Grabbing the note it read out.

Dear Naruto

I made this room for you in the off chance you ever went to camp half-blood I hope you find it to your liking. I apologise as well for the late claiming but your birth mother wanted it to be special and seen by the whole camp so we decided to claim you at your next meal there.

Take care of yourself

PS. Athena said it's fine if you don't sleep at her cabin as long as you connect with your siblings there

Love Mom.

Naruto had tears I his eyes at the end of the heartfelt letter.

'It's ok Mom I didn't mind your late claiming at all. Thanks for the room' naruto prayed out to Artemis as he entered the room.

It was painted black and silver showing signs of him being the son of two goddesses of two phases of the moon. It had a wardrobe to which Naruto found a male version of the hunter's outfit which was a silver hooded jacket with dark pants and army style brown boots. There was also a trophy case which was filled with Naruto's many kills on his quests. The bed was king sized it had silver bed sheets which reminded Naruto of the times he slept with Artemis.

'Thanks Mom I'll do you and my other mothers proud during the capture the flag game' Naruto thought as he finally took his rest not noticing that the moon had shinned even brighter that night.

STORY END

I hope you liked it the claiming of Naruto took longer than I thought so this was all I could cram into this chapter.

Thanks for reading until next time
