Child Of The Moon Ch.6
We Start a War
The next day was crazy. I woke up at five am to the sound of Emma in the bathroom. When she came out she was fully dressed in a tee shirt that said 'Join The Hunters, and Forget About Boy Trouble!' With a picture of the moon underneath, she wore blue skinny jeans, socks that had stars on them. She also had a silver towel wrapped around her head that looked to be woven from moonlight, which doesn't seem very absorbent.
"Good morning!" She said fully awake at five am. "How are you!"
"Good I guess, but I miss my old mini apartment and my usual routine." I said groggily. "I just wish I could have my own room and all again."
"Hm..." She got her I have an idea face. Oh no this can't be good. "Maybe you can!" I looked at her skeptically. She saw the look on my face and started to explain. "Ok so don't tell anyone I told you this, but the Hephaestus cabin has secret rooms built into there cabin making it bigger on the inside! Just like the TARDIS! Maybe if we ask Leo he will help us make our cabin like that!" She said with enthusiasm.
"Ok but before we go and ask him we should probably let him sleep and me take a shower." I had just noticed that I was still in the cloths I wore yesterday. "Oh and I will kneed cloths..." I started panicking I can't wear the same cloths everyday!
"Oh don't worry about cloths, our bathroom has a magical closet that makes all cloths you want. It will make anything!" Just then I noticed how beautiful our cabin was. It's walls looked like they where made of silver, there where twenty bunk-beds, each made from the same beautiful metal as the walls, the beds had blankets and pillows on it made from shimmering fabric that resembled moonlight. All the metal was carved with beautiful swirls and moons, but the ceiling was the most eye catching thing there. It was covered with twinkling stars. The stars where accurate too, I could see the Little Dipper, the Big Dipper, and a new constellation my dad discovered the year before last at work, that he called The Huntress. The Huntress was the most detailed constellation ever recorded, and my dad was rewarded with a plaque that had the constellation outlined and it said discoverer of The Huntress on it.
"Whoa..." Was all I could say.
"IKR! This place is amazing! But it isn't very homely. I think we should ask Leo as soon as we can." She was so excited. "Oh ya as soon as I'm done with the bathroom you can have it." She turned and when back into the bathroom. I heard a blow dryer click on, and Emma singing in her corny way which I have heard so many times.
"Ok I'm done now hurry and take your shower!"
"Ok thanks!" I ran into the bathroom it was stunning! It was as big as the room with our bunks and was decorated Greek style with white marble celeing floors and walls, there where coulombs made of moonlight and the bathtub was as big as a hot tub with the same bubbling too. I headed strait for the closet Emma mentioned which had a mantle door with the same decor as the other rooms walls. Next to the door was a keypad and you typed in what you wanted. This is what I typed in, Cropped black leather jacket, dark blue tank top, dark blue skinny jeans, a pair of underwear and a sports bra, black high heeled combat boots, and black hair ties. There was a soft noise like sand flowing from a bottle then the door unlocked and there where my cloths nicely folded with a note on them saying 'have a nice day from Hermes postal service' and a smily face drawn below with gold pen.
"Wow we get cloths from a god." I said and gathered up my cloths and walked over to a small shower cube that had a table beside it. I set my cloths on the far side of the table from the shower and grabbed two towels one for me and one for the floor I front of the shower for me to dry myself of wile standing on it so I don't slip on a wet floor. I started the shower and changed out of my rags and dumped my cloths and shoes into a bin that said waste where they where promptly incinerated. "So much for getting those fixed" I mumbled to myself. I checked the shower to see if it's warm enough and jumped in. I quadruple washed my hair with the little shampoos that where in the shower to get the Hydra dust out of my hair then washed myself with the bars of soap that where left in there with a plastic package that said 'from us to you Hermes Postal Service'
"Soap from a god too, wow we are lucky." I said sarcastically to myself completely irritated with gods right now. I finished my chowder got dried off and dressed and put my hair in a tight ponytail still wet. I walked out of the bathroom to find Emma siting playing angry birds on her iPhone. She looked up and smiled.
"You where in there for half an hour! What where you doing!" She kidded
"I wanted to get monster dust out of my hair, seeing as my hair had bad smelling gold flakes in it!" I complained. My muscles where aching, I had cuts and bruises on my arms and I was tired, but the shower helped greatly.
"Ok, let's go! We need to go talk to my little Latino friend!" She said as she grabbed my arm and pulled me out the door.
We walked past the Aphrodite cabin and the Ares cabin and got allot of glares. I guess Artemis has a lot of haters.
"Ah here we are!" Emma said as we stopped infront of a steampunk like building with a bank vault door.
"What do they keep in there, missiles?" I commented on the fact that it had such tight security, but was surprised with the answer.
"Yup!" Emma said cheerfully and she pressed a button on a panne land spoke into it.
"Yo! Let us in, or I will tell the Aphrodite cabin about what you did to there bunks!" She said into the speaker. The door instantly opened.
"What they did was that bad? Those prissy people don't seem that scary..." I said half laughing.
"Actually they are the most terrifying people at camp if you get taken into there cabin you come out with a makeover!" She said horrified at the thought of becoming a Barbie doll.
"Now I can see the severity of your threat!" I said and we went inside the god of crafts cabin.
