Claire Arrington POV::
Everyone was in the dining pavillion, which is in the Big tree, inside the waterfall. I have to say our camp is more unique and beautiful than any other camp out there, even if this is the only camp I been to. For one, wed don't have cabins, we have tree houses and also the main hous is a huge tree, and I mean it's really a huge tree with a waterfall. So yeah.. it's awesome. Anyway, we couldn't eat our dinner just yet because our camp director, Aranyani, she's the goddess of woodlands, wasn't here just yer. She left ten minutes after breakfast when we was vine swinging, there was an emergency meeting at Mount Meru, where the gods go for the holidays. I caught my best friend, Megan Maston eye and she threw her hands up in the air and slammed it against the table. That's how Megan acts when she's hungry.
Ten minutes into our non-dinner Aranyani finally came threw the waterfall, it keeps us dry when we walk threw, well that's only during the times we eat other than that it's wet. Aranyani usually haves green skin but right now it's pale, I mean really pale. Everyone was whispering, wondering what happened at the council meeting. My brother, Jason David, looked worried, Aranyani pratically raised him since he was a baby when his fathered was murdered before he was even born. Ireached out and squeezed his hand to let him know that I am here for him.
"Don't worry J.D. Aranyani will be fine," I assured him.
He gave me a watered down smile and nodded his head. "You're right Clo, I'm just overreacting."
"Hey that's what I'm here for, us Tara kids have to stick together." I laughed, removing my hand from his.
He smiled, but didn't say anything else, but I can still see the worry in his eyes. Aranyani sat down in her seat that was above us all in a groved out seat from the tree. She didn't say anything, just motioned us to eat dinner and don't ask any questions about what happen at the meeting. Yes, we can read that in a simple movement plus the look on her face said it all.
When dinner was over we only have a hour and a half before lights out and Megan and I decided to sit by the waterfall and talk a little bit before we went our separate ways.
"What do you think happen at the meeting?"Megan asked, taking her ponytail out with her dread locks falling to her the middle of her shoulder blades.
"I don't know," I shrugged my shoulders. "It must be something bad or something really really important."
"Maybe both,"she said, leaning agaist a rock, closing her eyes. "I wish she could tell us."
"Maybe she will, but just not now," I said, playing with her hair.
We was quiet for a few minutes listening to the waterfall, which is very peaceful and helps you keep calm. We heard laughter from behind us, I turned around to see who it was and groaned. Making her way towards us was fake barbie herself, Trinity Nix, daughter of Uma, goddess of light and beauty. She gets on everbody nerves at camp, thinking she's better than us, well she got another thing coming.
Megan opened up her eyes to see why I groaned and she mumbled, "Damn," when she saw Trinity
"Well, well, well. Look who it is," Trinity said, looking us up and down in disgust. "The wanna-be Uma girl and her tomboy side kick."
"Trinity, I suggest you take your fake tan behind some where else before you get hurt," Megan stood up from her seat, looking Trinity right dead in the eyes.
"Oww, I'm so scared,"Trinity mocked shivered. "Not," and walked away from us.
"One of these days some one going to put Trinity in her place and I can't wait to meet that person and shake their hands," Megan growled out before she sat down.
"I agree. Hell I even throw a party for the person that did," I said, looking at Trinity making her was to her tree house.
Mikayla Haynes POV::
It was late at night when I finally got into the Apollo cabin. I kicked my shoes off and flopped down in my bed, which was nice and cool, just like how I like it. I turned to face my wall when I heard a crunch sound from underneath my pillow, I moved my pillow and saw a letter there. I opened it up and read what it said and I couldn't believe what I read and how it got here.
Dear my dearest child,
I know there are alot of things that is going threw your mind right now. More pacifrcally, you are wondering how do I know you and why do I call you my child. I'm so sorry Mikayla that I can't tell you that right now, you will find out in due time. This letter maybe short and not give you the information you are looking for but I hope it will guide you in certain situations. This is a special piece a paper that I can communicate with you, if you need anything at all, all you have to do is right it down. Also you already know that your parents wasn't really your parents, I know who your real mother is and all you have to do is follow my directions and I can lead you to her. Tonight at midnight there will be a ride waiting for you and two companions of your choosing by the tree. I can't tell you where you going, all that I can say is that you will be safe there like you are here at camp half-blood. Don't forget to bring this paper with you Mikayla.
Best wishes and happy travels,
Unknown
I looked at the piece of paper and can't believe what was written. How do I know if this is the truth and that no one is playing some stupid joke on me? I grabbed a pen from off my trunk and wrote, Can I have a cherry flavor lollipop, please. A few seconds later a cherry flavor lollipop appeared on top of my pillow, so I guess this is real then. I already know I'm bringing Katie with me, but who else am I going to bring, I figure that out later.
At eleven-thirty, when I knew everyone in my cabin was asleep, I asked the person to give me three magically backpacks that can hold almost anything but feel light. When they appeared, I put almost everything I had in my trunk into my bag, along with extra pens. I crept out of my cabin and made my way to the Hades cabin, hopefully her door is unlock. When I got to the cabin, I tried to open the door and it opened up, yes, wait no. Damn, I needed a laugh, I wanted to see her face when she falls off the bed again. I shut the door behind me and crept slowly to her bed, she was sound asleep.
I jumped on top of her bed and started to bounce up and down until she woke up. I heard a muffle scream then the next thing you know I was layed out on the floor and Katie was on top of me with wild eyes.
"What the hell Mika?"She said, climbing back to bed. "I was sleeping."
"I got something to tell you," I sat up on the floor.
"Can't it wait until tomorrow?"She asked, putting the pillow over her face.
"No, it's really important,"I said, snatching the pillow away from her.
"What is it then?"She got on her elbows looking at me. So I went and told her about the letter and how I know it's true and how we suppose to leave at midnight. "Alright, let me change and pack, then we can leave."
"Alright, but hurry up okay," I said, laying on the floor, staring at the base boards.
Once she was finished with everything, we shut her cabin door silently and was trying to make no noise at all so we won't get caught and make it to the tree before midnight come. We heard a noise from behind us and we froze and turned around to see who it was. "What are you two doing out of bed?" he asked, making his way slowly towards us. "I should tell on the both you, maybe I can dish out the punishments also."
A/N:And here's the cliffy. Lol, sorry I had to do it and there it is. Okay so I have some bad news for you guys, I won't be updating that often due to the fact I'm sick. Like for two months now. I went to the doctors on tuesday to see how my MRI results were and they approved from last time I guess. So like a week or two ago I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism, so I've been getting alot of tests down to get it up. Now I'm 96.8 and I should be at 111, so I'm taking pills for that now. Anyway, it's going to be hard for me to update because I have alot of doctor visits to go to, plus I may have to get surgery done because they found a scist on my left ovary so yeah, I will try to update often though, and I won't abandon this story. Until next time my faithful readers
