Authors Notes: sorry for taking so to update I just ran out of experience. The original CHAP. Was that Basil gets claimed while in lunch But I changed it and here you go guys the longest chap. EVER! (FROM ME)

DISCAIMER: If I were Rick Riordan I would be writing Mark of Athena SO HOLD YOUR LAW SUITS.

I went to the mess hall where I got a cheese burger with bacon and Annabeth got a salad. We sat with Percy while he was nom nom noming on some pepperoni pizza."What date is it?" I asked. "April 30 why?" said Percy. "Well it's that I can't wait for my birthday in 2 months. I'll be turning 13 on July 19." I said. So were will I sleeping tonight?". "Hermes cabin, the most crowded cabin in camp" Annabeth said while pointing at 2 twins pranking a couple of Demeter girls. I looked at Annabeth with a horrified face that screamed 'O Gods no!'. "Sorry Basil camp rules all the indefinite half-bloods must stay in the Hermes cabin until claimed by their godly parent" said Annabeth. "Yeah and if your 'lucky' u get to stay there until you go back home when your older if u decide to stay year round" said Percy with a sarcastic tone. "Okay fine" I said with a defeated tone.

When I finished my sandwich a couple of Aphrodite girls (including Rose Serling) giggled as they passed by the table and threw a note that landed in my plate. "Looks like someone's a cabin favorite" teased Percy. "Percy shut up! Go ahead and unfold it Basil" Annabeth said. I unfolded the note and it read:

Meet me at the river on the left side of the CTF battle field.

-Rose 3

"Soooooooo what does it say?" asked Percy looking oddly curious. "Oh nothing just to meet her at the river of the left side of the CTF battle field" I looked at them as they stared in awe at me and I said: "What?" "Oh nothing just that you've only been in camp for an hour and already have a girl drooling all over you" said Percy obviously teasing me. "Hey Annabeth your in the opposing team right? So can you not send people to that spot?". "Yeah sure no problem". "Ok thanks guys" I said while leaving the table and walking outside to find the counselor of the Aphrodite cabin chasing the counselor of the Hephateus cabin.

"Leo Valdez come back here this instant!" screamed the girl.

"Never Pipes these headphones protect me from your charm speak!"

"You will pay for staining my favorite jacket with your oil!"

As Leo came close I stuck my foot out to trip him and knocked him to the ground when Piper caught up. She took the headphones away from him and started barking orders. "Eat dirt Leo!" as if on cue Leo grabbed a wad of dirt and ate it. "Hey kid thanks for the help names...". "Piper yeah I know I'm Basil by the way" I cut her off before she could finish." "Well Basil nice to meet you. I better go find Jason" and with that she left me and Leo while he was still eating dirt.

I slapped Leo across the face to get him back to this world. He started gagging and spitting dirt out of his mouth. "Hey why you tripped me I almost got away". "Well you did stain her jacket". "Yeah I'm…" again I cut him off: "Leo Valdez counselor of Hephateus cabin and 'supreme commander' of the ARGO II". "Wow kid you really know your stuff". "My names Basil". "Sure…" and with that he left and I started walking towards the Hermes cabin. I stood in front of a cabin with the weird doctor symbol on the top of the door frame. When I opened the door there were a bunch of beds and people all over the place. "You must be Basil" said one of the twin counselors. "Um yeah". "Great another indefinite for the Hermes cabin" complained the other one. "Well yeah anyways with ones my bed?". "Top bunk far end right side. Got it?". "Yeah". I walked towards my bed when I saw this kid reading a game informer magazine from game stop. I climbed to the top bunk and quickly fell asleep.

Connor and Travis shook me awake from my deep sleep and told me to put my armor on that it was time for CTF. I quickly strapped on my armor and headed outside towards the forest. There Chiron gave some instructions and blah blah blah. The team went ahead and hid the flag on top of a tree. I went further ahead and found 3 guys scouting the river. I quickly knocked one out with the butt of my sword, cut the other in the leg and stabbed the other in the arm. After they were lying on the floor I heard a voice coming from behind me. I turned back to see who was talking but found no one. When I turned back to face the front I saw Rose grinning at me. "Boy aren't you fast" I said after almost dying from a heart attack. She smiled and started cracking up. "Yeah that's gymnastics for you, makes you all fast and flexible". I started cracking up and said "I can't even cart wheel" and with that she said "Cart wheel for me" and without even thinking about it I started cart wheeling and failing. "Ok you can stop now" she said trying not to laugh. "Why did I start cart wheeling?" "Because I told you to" "And?" "And I kind of used charm speak on you". I started thinking for a moment and then I said "That… is… Awesome!". She started to giggle and I couldn't help but blush. "I never got your name" she said. "Oh sorry I'm Basil Grobnic" and when I finished a couple of Apollo kids started shooting arrows at us and one of the arrows hit me in the left shoulder. "Gods that's got to hurt" said Rose. "Yeah no kidding" I quickly grabbed a knife from my pack and threw it to an Apollo and it hit him in the knee. "I know what he's thinking" I said. "What is he thinking then?" Rose answered back. "I used to be a great archer, then I took a knife to the knee" (you got to love skyrim) she started laughing until an arrow ran past her forehead. After that I grabbed another knife and threw it at the remaining archer it hit him in the shoulder and he feel to the floor. I quickly grabbed some nectar and put it in my shoulder wound. "Gods that really hurt, I think it reached the bone" she grabbed the nectar and applied it to my wound. "Ouch please rub softer" I complained. "Ok but this wound is pretty bad think u need to get an Apollo camper to look at this" she said with concern. "Ok fine I'll go" When I tried to stand my shoulder started to hurt really badly. I started to walk until I tripped over a tree root and I fell on my shoulder. "Ok pain bad REALLY BAD". She took me to one of the Apollo kids and he said my shoulder was broken. He took me to the Big House where there were a bunch of injured campers. They set me in a free bed and I said "Feeling light headed" and passed out.
