Ok. Sorry this is so late. Two Words: School Sucks. Well, Langley has been taken away by the camp guards. The romans established it. He meets someone, and also meets the camp directors, except Mr. D. So yeah, read and Rate. Kthxbai. :)


The soldiers hauled Langley, followed by Chris. They had attacked him from behind, and put cuffs on him. They said they were taking them to the building where they would be judged.

They pushed him through the camp, as kids stared at them, pointing a whispering to each other. Langley saw around 6 more kids in armor, with weapons drawn, tailing them closely. They

walked to a huge blue house, that had a even deeper blue door. The paint was chipped, and worn down. They opened the door and hauled the two boys in, the other six soldiers stayed

behind, like they were scared or something. The two holding them kept walking, holding the boy's arms in a tight grip. They walked down a hallway, and the one holding Langley

whispered into his ear, incredibly softly so the other one couldn't hear her. Jeez, Langley thought. This place is freaking strict.

"I don't want to do this, but I have to. Rules of the camp." She said. "Gwen Farmer, by the way."

"Um, hi," He whispered back. "What exactly is this place, anyway?" He asked.

"Chiron will explain." She whispered. "Unless Lupa doesn't kill you first." Langley wanted to ask, but Chris and him were shoved in. They fell on the dark floor, groaning in complaint. Chris

got up, and hefted Langley to his feet.

"What the heck just happened?" Langley asked, bewildered.

"Um, I think you were just claimed. And that sign must've scared them, so they sent you here." Chris answered.

"Gosh. Well I hope this person they call 'Lupa' doesn't kill us." Langley said, and Chris' eyes widened. His lips started the form the word "kill", but he was tackled by some kind of hairy

animal-thing. It growled at him, and prepared its huge jaws. Langley's eyes widened, and felt a tug in his gut, exactly like before. The wood on the floor seemed like it remembered that it

was once living and started growing at an unnatural rate, until huge roots binded the creature five feet in the air. The creature snarled, and screamed.

"What is this!" The thing snarled, in a slightly feminine voice, but immediately vines wrapped around her (Langley guessed it was a woman.) maw. The lights turned on, and a man in a

wheel-chair, rolled in.

"Hello, new demigods. What is your business here?" The man asked. His eyes were dark brown, and his hair the same. His eyes were filled with what Langley recognized as pain.

"Well, um." Langley started, but Chris butted in, his voice filled with determination.

"My friend Langley, has just been claimed. By the goddess Gaea." He said to the man. The dude started to look scared, and stared at them in silence.

"Gaea is not a goddess, she is a deity. The personification of earth. Curse her. But what surprises me, young demigods, is the only time Gaea was awake, barely, anyway, was two years

ago. It makes no sense, you being about fifteen or sixteen. She must've been awake, and not even the gods knew it. Eh," He said, looking up. "Could you release my friend Lupa? If you'd

be so kind." The man asked. Langley felt bad about not noticing her, but he concentrated, and the roots withered and fell. The wolf-woman thing fell on two feet. She looked like a cross

between a care bare, and a thirty-old women. She had white hair, all over her, but she covered her legs with jeans, and wore a purple shirt. She had a wolfish face, and yellow eyes, that

seemed to disect his whole being.

"Thank you, demigod." She said. "But attack me once again, and you shall not live to tell the tale." She growled. By then Chris had recovered from the scare.

"My friend could own you in a jiffy." He boasted, but was immediately silenced by a claw inches away from his throat.

"You'd best not anger Lupa, young demigod." The man stated. "I am Chiron, activities director." He said.

"Um, Chiron. What exactly is thos place anyway?" Langley asked.

"I fear we will have to tell you that later. It is time for Capture the Flag, and we must test your skills." He then turned to Chris. "And you, son of Ares, we have a party ready to destroy a

sea monster that's been attacking campers, who tried to destroy it. We must stop it before someone dies. You will be sent with the party to destroy it." Chiron rose from his wheel-chair,

two long, white legs emerging from it. Two more legs popped from behind. Langley wasn't even shocked. Children of Gods, three year-old soldiers, wolf-women, and a sea monster. It was

all so weird, a horse-dude didn't even phase him. Chiron studied his face.

"Well most people are surprised by my form. But, that will have to wait. We have to go. Follow me!"

And all three of them plunged out of the back door, and into daylight. They walked to the forest, passing the volleyball pit, basketball court, and amphitheater. They arrived at the forest,

and heard a lot of screaming. People were yelling and raising there weapons. Langley saw about three hundred people there. They either had red armor or blue. There was a group to

left which had about ten boys and girls in. Percy, of course. That girl Annabeth, and Clarisse were there, with a lot of other people. They asked Chiron if he was ready yet, but Chiron

told them that they had a new party member, and sent Chris off with them. They ran down to the beach and got into a canoe. Langley sensed their feet touch the ground as they ran.

But the sense wore off as soon as they took off to the water.

"Now, Langley, we set you with weapons and armor." Chiron said. They spent around thirty minutes picking out armor, that fit him. But Chiron gave him no weapons.

"Ask your mother for a weapon and shield. Pray to her, and we shall see if she's friendly."

Langley thought for a while, and finally did it.

Um, he prayed, could you please give me some weapons? Because you're the awesome chief goddess, and all.

He waited a while, but nothing happened. Untill the ground rumbled deeply, and up shot a three foot sword, and a round shield, made completely out of stone. He smiled and thought,

Thanks mom, I owe ya' one. He then ran into the clearing, where some dude was saying the rules.

"-No maiming, killing, or decapitating. A good clean fight. But, how much of a joy would it be if one of you little brats died, eh?" He chuckled to himself, but no one else made a sound.

"Well, whatever then! As you all know the Hunters of Artemis are here to play aswell! Let's all give a big huzzah!" The only ones "huzzahing" were about 60 girls with silvery clothes on.

"Yeah, yeah. And as you all know, today the whole camp is fair game, except the beach. All campers will be able to chose their own team, no matter what cabin, and all means of

transportation can be used. Pegasus, Chariots, even skateboards! Now, you little rascals, put on your armor, and get going to your teams base!"

Langley looked at the plume on his head, and it was red, so he followed the red team. They arrived at a clearing, and crowed around a table. A blonde dude was giving commands,

raising his spear, and pointing at places.

"As you all know, my sister is commanding the blue team. She'll be tough to beat. Leo! Have you modified the weapons?" He asked.

The dude named Leo pressed a button and said, "Yep. Any other commands, Boss?" He said it sarcastically.

"Ok then. This might be a really simple plan, but, try to find the flag!" He said.

Langley piped up and said, "Um, sir, I know where it is." He pointed to the hill, that had a huge tree upon it. Right beside the tree was a huge waving, blue flag.

"I can't see it. But I'll take your word for it. How'd you know that?"

"Well, I kinda sensed it."

"Yeah, okay. Everyone, head for that tree! I'll take care of old pinecone face!"

Langley had no idea what he was talking about, but he just went with it. The conch rung, and all of them charged for the tree.
