Hey guys, third chapter coming to you now. This one is most definitely longer. I promise. Hope you guys really like it. I enjoyed writing it. I finished it late last night, yawned, and then fell asleep. I promised today afternoon, and here it is. I hope you like it and I hope you review it. You find out whom August's parent is this chapter. It's kind of unusual, but I wanted to try to write a story about a son of that god. Anywho, here's this chapter, and I hope you will enjoy reading it like I enjoyed writing it. It was really fun. Oh yeah. And review (: Please. Thank you

Chapter 1 : I get "dissed" by a god.
"W-where is t-this C-camp?" August managed to wheeze out between each gasp of breath. We had just taken a break after running for an hour.
"Right on top of us," Asher laughed.
I looked up. Holy crap! There was a dragon up there! I looked to its left. No wonder it was up there, there was a fleece hanging from the singular pine tree at the top of the hill, which appeared to be made of the finest, purest gold.
"Holy crap! That's a dragon up there!" I proclaimed.
"Thank you Captain Obvious," Asher smirked.
"No problem, Sergeant Sarcasm," I replied, grinning.
Asher just looked at us both like we were crazy, which made us laugh, and laughed.
"So, who's ready to go in?" he suddenly said, way more serious. Then looking straight at me, he said "past the dragon."
That made Asher crack up.
"Hey!" I said in defence. "I'm not scared! I just was amazed that there was an actual dragon. God." I said laughing
"Gods," Asher corrected grinning
"Yeah, yeah, whatever," I said. "Let's just go in."
"Won't the dragon eat us?" August asked.
Asher laughed. "No, you silly goose, it won't."
August looked relieved, and I laughed, but Asher continued, more seriously. "But stay away, he doesn't like it if you get too close."
We all started making our slow ascent up the hill.
Asher led us to this big house he called "The Big House." Go figure.
We rounded a corner of the Big House and found to men playing cards. One was in a wheelchair, and the other looked oddly familiar, even though I knew I had never seen him before in my life.
"Ahem, Chiron?" Asher asked the one in the wheelchair.
Ah, Asher. Thank you. Who are these to young men?
"My name is Aideen Taydea," I replied. I knew I probably looked pretty disbelieving about all of this, but I didn't care. It was all really hard to take in at the moment.
"Yea and I'm August Kirtix."
At the mention of August's name, the other man sat up straighter. He looked alarmed.
"Nice to meet you bo…" Chiron started
"Chiron, I have to go, now." He turned to me. "Your name sounds like a girl." Then, with a pop, he was gone.
"Crazy Dionysus," Chiron muttered. "Anyway, Asher, you had something to attend to I believe?"
Asher nodded and rushed off.
"Nico!" Chiron yelled
In less then ten seconds, a boy with dark black hair and pale skin appeared out of the shadows.
"Show Aideen and August around the camp, full tour." Chiron told him
"Yea, sure thing Chiron." The Nico boy said.
We started our tour.
"First off, my name is Nico di Angelo son of Hades. Now, this is the dining pavilion. There is a table for every god or goddess, and the children sit at their parents tables," he told us.
We walked past the cabins ("We'll save those for last.") and headed to the woods.
"These are the woods. We play Capture the Flag in here, which we'll be playing before dinner, but no going into the forest at night because…"
"Grrroooowll."
"Of that." Nico sighed.
"Holy crap! Another one!" August squealed, glancing at his arm sadly, as a hellhound bounded out of the woods.
Nico sighed again. He put his hands in front of him and pushed to the sides, and a crack in the earth appeared, swallowing the hellhound.
Nico collapsed and we rushed over. We helped him up, but he seemed fine, just breathing heavily.
"Dude!" I exclaimed "That was freakin' Awesome!"
"Yea, yea whatever," Nico replied.
Although I lovewolves, I think I've had enough of these stupid hellhounds.
Just then a conch shell blew.
"Oh, time for Capture the Flag. Since the Huntresses are here it will be Campers vs. Huntresses." Nicos face really seemed to light up when he was talking about the girls.
Since we were undetermined, we weren't allowed to play. From where we were sitting, we cold see everything. The Huntresses won in about twenty minutes. Apparently, the never lose.
At dinner, Dionysus had just returned. August and I were talking and laughing, so we didn't even notice him return. We got up and sacrificed some of our food, then came back and sat down. We got a table to ourselves seeing as we were the only undetermineds in Camp
"Yea, when the hellhound bit… what?" August asked noticing the astonished look on my face.
I pointed above his head. "L-look."
He looked up to see a purple grape vine slowly fading. He gasped and snapped his head over to Dionysus' table. It just occurred to me that everyone had gone silent was looking straight over at us. I looked over and say Nico smirk.
"Congratulations, August Kirtix. You have just been claimed. Come and join your new family!" Chiron announced.
August got up awkwardly and walked to his father. Each step he took echoed in the silent pavilion.
"Hello, father." August said sheepishly
Dionysus forced a smile. At least, I think it was forced. August sat down.
Huh, I thought to myself, I am now officially alone.
So there it is. My third chapter. It is longer. You got to find out who Augusts parent was! Yay! So. I thought this one was much better. But people need to start reviewing (:
It takes like ten seconds
Please review. It hurts when you don't review. I feel it when you don't. (: Anyway. Thanks. Keep reading and keep reviewing
