I chose to write both of the characters I created because I wanted to get their introduction out of the way so next chapters I can focus on everyone else's. :)

There's so many Greek tributes lol

NO SPOTS LEFT!

Camp Jupiter

On one side of Panem, Camp Jupiter lies hidden...

Katia Trainor, one of Camp Jupiter's Praetors, legacy of Pluto, looked up at the sky. She took a deep breath. "Save us." She whispered, and shifted into her hellhound form. She raced into battle, roaring with anger.

Camp Jupiter's battle against the capitol had been going on for several days now, and the campers were starting to wear out. It seemed like the capitol had unlimited warriors, while Camp Jupiter only had a few thousand. Many campers had already been slain, including Katia's own best friend Ailah, legacy of Vulcan. Ailah had charged some men dressed in white outfits and attempted to stab them with a long electric sword she had built herself. The men simply wrestled the weapon out of her hands, seemingly unharmed by the electric charge, disarmed her, and stabbed her with her own weapon until she stopped moving. Katia had proceeded to trample them in one of her demonic forms, but it had been too late to save Ailah.

Katia turned to see Lakyn, daughter of Fontus, rush past her and control a land-borne wave to knock over some peacekeepers. She grinned at Katia, and continued her watery rampage. Katia began running towards the front of the fighting, and was only stopped at the sight of a woman's face materializing in the air.

"Stop! Everyone stop fighting!" The brunette woman said. Her amber eyes blazed with irritation, as if she was bothered the battle was still happening.

The peacekeepers and campers all looked up at the woman, some campers finally collapsing from exhaustion.

"This battle needs to stop. We can peacefully discuss this."

"NO WE CAN'T!" Lakyn yelled from the back, shooting a ball of water at the hologram. Katia watched as a nearby peacekeeper shot Lakyn with a sort of taser, and she immediately fell to the ground.

Katia shifted back to human form to rush to her friend. "Lakyn!" she glared at the peacekeepers and holographic woman. "What did you do to her?"

The woman's voice turned soft and silky. "Honey, we only temporarily blocked her powers. She'll be able to use them again in a few weeks."

"A few weeks?!" Katia gasped. She stood up and yelled to Camp Jupiter, "Do you want these men to take our powers? NO! We will fight and take our honor and powers back!"

Camp Jupiter roared their agreement, and Katia quickly ordered the Centurions of each Cohort and the other Senators to lead their campers and fight back.

"That one seems to be their leader. Take her down." One peacekeeper ordered. Three peacekeepers ran at Katia and she proceeded to transform into a Dirae and fly into the sky. She shrieked at them and dove down upon one of them, ripping at his white outfit in fury. The other two peacekeepers stepped back in shock, but then whipped their power tasers out and aimed them at Katia. She turned around but they shot her with the taser before she could move. Her form flickered before returning to her normal human form and collapsing on the ground.

"No!" A boy dressed like Katia ran up to her and looked down at her. "You took her powers!" He turned to Camp Jupiter, addressing them all. "I do not know what these people want, but we have to surrender." Camp Jupiter yelled their disagreement. He waved them silent. "We have to. Look around," he drew his hand in a circle. "Do you see all of our fallen brothers and sisters? Some are dead, some have lost their powers. We cannot win this fight. Our parents cannot help us now." He looked to the holographic woman, and sighed. "My name is Cyprian, son of Apollo, praetor of Camp Jupiter, and I declare our defeat."

The holographic woman smiled. "Hello Cyprian. My name is President Terra of the Capitol. It is nice to meet you. Now, soldiers." The peacekeepers nodded to the woman, and one of them tasered Cyprian. "If you all follow our directions, then you will not be harmed. We will round you up into our trucks and taser you. You will wake up as we take you to the Capitol."

"What's the Capitol?" A dizzy Lakyn murmurs as she sat up, rubbing her head.

"You will see, my darling." The woman said. The peacekeepers then began rounding up the campers and lining them up at the back of trucks. One peacekeeper helped Lakyn up and carried her into a truck. They also carried Cyprian and Katia into the smallest truck, and then the people that seemed to be in charge climbed into the small truck and began driving away. The peacekeepers got everyone into trucks, strapped them in, and tasered them.

The holographic woman smiled as she watched her trucks drive away. She turned around and said, "We got them. Any news on Camp Half-Blood?" before shutting off the hologram projector.

Camp Half-Blood

Over on the other side of Panem, Camp Half-Blood towers on a concealed hill...

The battle against the Capitol had lasted about three days before Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase finally showed up. The campers had just started to gain the edge when the Capitol brought out weapons that resembled tasers and started tasering campers, knocking them unconscious. The Apollo cabin, being the healers, frantically ran around trying to discover what was wrong with them, but none of them would wake up. The Capital ended up cornering Percy and tasering him, and Annabeth, seeing her fallen husband, let her guard down just enough to get tasered as well. Camp Half-Blood finally surrendered, but not before Mr. D... er, Dionysus, tried to intervene. They could not defeat a god, but he was called off by the Olympians for whatever reason. Camp Half-blood surrendered and was promptly tasered and loaded into vans that began driving them to the Capitol.

Torren Grain blinked as the world came back into focus. He shook his head to clear the dizziness, and looked around to survey his surroundings. He was buckled into a seat on a large van with other campers surrounding him. It looked like all of his siblings were there, as if there was a van for each cabin. On his right side sat his twin sister Lillie, but she hadn't woken up yet. On the left, a young boy named Aster was just waking up. He was new to Camp Half-Blood, but he was Torren's newfound brother.

"Wha... where are we?" Aster asked quietly as he rubbed his head.

"I'm not quite sure. We're in a van with our siblings from the Demeter cabin, but that's all I can tell." Torren answered him.

"Why'd they take us from camp?"

Torren hung his head. "I don't know. All that 'President Terra' woman told us was that they're taking all of us back to their homes in a place called 'the Capitol' and none of us will be hurt as long as we cooperate."

Aster pondered that, then his body jolted in alarm. "What about my plant! It'll die if I don't tend to it!"

"Aster, I don't think we'll ever see our home again. You can raise a new plant in the Capitol."

"But I want my plant! It's grown so big already! It'll take me another year to raise a new one that big!" the small eight year old buried his face in his hands sadly.

Torren felt a poke into his right rib-cage and turned to see his twelve year old twin sister staring back at him. Her twinkly green eyes showed confusion and she twisted her blonde hair nervously.

"Torren, what's going to happen to us?" she asked him softly.

He put his arm around her. "Hey. As long as we stick together, these Capitol people can't hurt us." The twins looked almost exactly the same; they were fraternal but from the same parents. Their father had lived in District Ten all his life until he met Demeter. They fell in love and had the twins. Demeter guided them to Camp Half-Blood when they were young to keep them safe from the Capitol and the games, as all the Gods do with their children. However, their father couldn't stay. He went back to District Ten but was killed by the capitol soon after for leaving district boundaries.

Lillie nodded sadly. "But what about camp?"

Torren looked out the van window at the road disappearing behind them. "I don't think we'll ever be able to go back."

Lillie buried her face into Torren's chest, and he rubbed her back with his hand. "We can do this."

The van suddenly jolted and stopped. Lillie looked up in surprise, her face still streaked with tears. The back of the van opens and there are two peacekeepers standing there.

"Start filing out. Line up out here and we'll get you onto the train." One of them says in a gruff voice.

"Train?" Aster questioned.

"It's a faster and safer way to get you the rest of the way to the Capitol." The other peacekeeper said in a more feminine, softer voice.

The row of people Torren, Aster, and Lillie were sitting in got up first, so Torren followed his sister out of the back of the van. The peacekeepers had them lined up so they could take measurements and records of everyone before sending them onto the train. The peacekeeper started with seven year old Lusa, asking her many questions while also taking her blood type and body measurements.

When they got to Lillie, she was super shy and refused to answer the peacekeepers.

"I'm her twin sister. I can answer for both of us." Torren spoke up.

The peacekeeper nodded. "Names."

"Lillie and Torren Grain." Torren responded.

"Ages."

"Both twelve." Lillie flinched in pain as a peacekeeper took her blood.

"Parents' names."

"The goddess Demeter and James Elm." The peacekeeper snorted when Torren said that.

"Any other living family members?" Torren felt a prick in his arm as the other peacekeeper took his blood too.

"My siblings from the Demeter cabin, our aunt Kyra from District Ten, and possibly cousins. Our family is from District Ten."

The peacekeeper nodded, then sent them onto the train. It was very beautiful. The walls were blue with white trim and white curtains on the windows. There were carts of food in each corner of the room and many couches.

Torren's friend Gardenia raced out of the doors at the back of the train car and hugged Torren. "Come look around with me! I found bedrooms and spas and everything! I love it on this train!"

Torren stumbled back as Gardenia crashed into him. "I dunno about this, Gardenia. It doesn't seem real."

"Aw, come on." She pleaded.

"Or safe," Torren added. He saw the look on her face, and gave in. "Fine, but let me find Lillie fir-" He was interrupted by a crash across the train car. Lillie stood beside an overturned food cart, juggling several types of pastries.

"Oops." she mumbled with her mouth full. "Check out the food."

Torren glanced around the room. There were children of Demeter everywhere, peacekeepers rushing in to check out the crash, fancy stuff.. was Torren the only one that didn't trust this place?

"I don't trust this place."

Torren whipped around to see an older girl. She was a child of Demeter, but Torren had never met her before. However, he had heard that her name was Sage. She had quite a reputation around camp for her crazy antics. A lot of people thought she is a child of Hermes, but Demeter herself appeared to claim her.

"I don't either." Torren said nervously, slightly afraid of Sage.

She towered a foot above him. Torren was only 4'11". Average, but almost short for his age. Sage was 6' and taller than almost everyone in the Demeter cabin.

Sage looked down at him. "This just don't seem right. Them bargin in here; killin our friends an takin us captive..." her southern District Four/ District Ten accent was very prominent.

Torren nodded seriously. "What should we do?"

"Honey, there ain't nothin we can do now." She shook her head sadly. "We just gotta stick together and hope we all survive." She put her hand on his shoulder, and guided him off to the rest of their siblings.

Finally I finished the chapter! Sorry for the long wait, I hate myself as a writer. But, I fully intend on following through with this story. I should update this story about once a month, but the others are on hiatus for who knows how long. I'm alternating updates for this story and one on wattpad, so I'll be sure to keep the updates coming since I have people in my real life depending on updates on my other story. (That's different because they bother me to update lol)

Thanks to everyone who has submitted a tribute!
