Ch. A2: Camp Kronos

Yin and Yang stood side to side as their only home opened its icy walls revealing camp Kronos. The two walked in noticing the other campers gathered around Demise. Yin grinned as he noticed their leader wore a new set of armor. Yin and Yang had a dramatic entry with a wave of hell hounds as they crossed into their home.

Camp Kronos contained an open courtyard with seven buildings in different clumps surrounded with an icy Stygian wall. The different buildings consisted of three dorms, a shower and bathroom facility, a library that had a secret room, a sparring hall that had a massive armory, and finally a mess hall. Camp Kronos had many pathways connecting the seven buildings all lined with ancient wood dummies for sparring in the cold Alaskan days.

Yin and Yang joined the group of Demititans as Demise read a scroll of scores for the capture the flag. Like usual he started from the bottom and worked up. He read fifth place no surprise though he paused at second.

"Second place goes to Yin son of Prometheus!" The leader called making the crowd uneasy. Yang clapped Yin on the back telling him good job though Yin's victory was short lived. "First place and captain for this month's offensive team is Yang son of Prometheus!"

The camp cheered on the more popular of the twins as he pounded his chest plate and raised his fist skywards. The soldiers disbanded leaving only five remaining. Yin and Yang, Demises, and two girls. One girl fettled with a golden coin not paying much attention. The other was staring at Demises' with goggly eyes.

"Are we meeting?" The girl with the coin asked glancing up her irises golden.

"No I Believe that won't be necessary lets convene tomorrow morning." Demise sighed looking at the twilight sun. "Alanna make sure curfew is by a decent time."

"Sure thing Demise." Alanna said glancing towards Yin who nodded back saying 'we're still on' Alanna smiled faintly then nodded to Demise who examined her closely than turned to the other girl

"Yin Keep up with Alanna's training despite what most think your blade has quite a bite." Demise said coldly touching the center of his chest plate. "Yang come with me we will plan tomorrows training."

"Sure thing see yaw, Yin." Yang said with a nod as he and Demise walked off to the library.

Alanna snatched her coin from the air looking around the courtyard as Yin walked up to the girl. Alanna wore a black camp shirt with a leather jacket, which was probably the only jacket in camp. She also wore simple blue jeans with a black studded belt. Though her most remember-able features were her golden irises. The girl was the only child of Kronos and was fatally shy about it.

Over the course of their lives spent at camp Kronos the two had grown close. Though most would doubt that Alanna would be with someone as passive as Yin she knew him better than his own twin brother Yang. Yin's brother was considered to be the cooler twin and was by far more popular than Yin.

"You're thinking about your brother?" Alanna asked her voice soothing.

"Yeah he got first." Yin said as Alanna slipped her hand into his and walked through the snowy paths of camp Kronos.

"Yeah to his defense you did run." Alanna countered looking Yin dead in the eyes. "Though the reports show that you've been getting more and more kills."

"They're monsters though they hold back." Yin said closing his eyes to calm his mind.

"So pick a fight with a camper you know they won't care." Alanna said easily. "I've seen you fight none stop Yin and I know people mistreat you..."

"They can think what they want, I'm happy knowing one person knows my potential." Yin said smiling at Alanna who beamed back as they approached the sparring hall. "Maybe tonight I'll let you can teach me a new technique?"

"What's that?" Alanna beamed looking excited.

"Getting dead last." Yin flinched as he received a punch in the arm. "Got the point Alanna."

"Good I'd hate to punch you again". She said crossing her arms Yin grinned as they walked in silence into the sparring hall.
