A/N: Hey guys! Sorry this chapter took so long! My weekend was spent in Florida, so yeah. I had fun though! :D What did you guys do this weekend? Oh, and sorry if there are any grammar errors, I finished this in a rush. So here's Camp Jupiter!

Drake chuckled. "I don't know dude. Still think I'd win."
Val scrunched his face up in disagreement. "There's no way man! If I had a gun to your head and all you had was that wimpy knife of yours, I would've killed your emo ass."
"I'm not fucking emo, dipshit. I just like black. And guns are for show. Knifes? Now those are for the pros." Drake Westbrook got up and into sitting position and pulled out a black foot long blade made purely of stygian iron. It glistened in the sunlight as he admired his hunting knife.
"Whatever. Goth, emo; same thing."
Both teenagers were lying around the Field of Mars, enjoying the peace and quiet for once. This, of course, was soon interrupted.
"Praetor Val Russ! M.J. is missing!"
The spiky haired brunette groaned. "You know, I kind of expected something like that would happen."
"Oh?" Drake smirked, getting off of the ground and offered a hand to his Praetor.
Val scowled but took his hand and jumped up. "Call me physic." He then turned to the other camper. "What's this about MJ?"
The girl that was in front of him tried to speak but it was clear she was out of breath. She took gallons of air in and started coughing. After that little embarrassing scene, she cleared her throat. "Mercury Jordan Ryan was reported missing by the descendant of Apollo, Julius, not two hours ago sir. He said that some kids he believes are demigods captured him while on guard duty."
"Let me get this straight. 'Some kids'" He make air quotes with his fingers. "Took a full fledge Roman right under our noses and it takes two hours to tell me this?"
Adrienne Myers nodded, sweat forming on her forehead.
Val sighed. "Did you at least tell Kai?"
She perked up and nodded with more enthusiasm. "Praetor Kai? Yes sir!"
"Well then, I'll go talk to him about this." Val turned his head to Drake. "Coming?"
The ivory haired boy grinned and fake saluted. "Yes sir."
"So you came here to ask me what?" The blonde smirked, raising an eyebrow.
The son of Vulcan dropped his head on the table and groaned. "What are we supposed to do about Mercury? He's been kidnapped damnit!" He picked his head off of the table and glared at Kai who just shrugged and ate another one of his Doritos.
"What can we do? Send a search group? All we know about these demigods is that they wanted one of us. We have no idea what we're dealing with Val." Kai munched on another Dorito. "If anything, we have to go to the Senate and form a meeting before we decide on a plan of action. If you want, I can plan it tomorrow."
Val slowly nodded and dropped his head back on the table. "Am I doing anything wrong Kai? This never happened when Louis was in charge."
The other Praetor sighed. "You're doing fine kid. You're just new to this stuff is all! Dorito?"
"Nah, I'm just going to go to bed. Don't forget to schedule the Senate meeting dude. And wipe your face for god's sake."
With that, Val walked out the door and was met with Drake leaning on the wall. "You look like a creep." He pointed out helpfully.
The older teen chuckled and walked over. "How'd it go?"
"Oh you know the usual. Kai was stuffing his face with junk food, where the Pluto does he even put it all, and we ended up having a meeting tomorrow."
Drake nodded in understanding and yawned. "Well dude, I'm going to sleep. G'night!" He walked towards the third cohort and waved, his missing ring finger becoming visible.
Val waved back. "Yeah, whatever."
A/N: Sorry about the short chapter, I'll make the next one longer. So next one is the Senate meeting and then we kind of switch back and forth from camps until the main ten are revealed. Hope it was okay, even if it was short. Love ya'll! And Good night! I'm going to bed! Any questions or concerns, just review them and I'm get back to you. Also tell me if your character was in character. See ya!
