Patricia's POV:
Right before I could get any rest Chiron said I was a daughter of Hecate. So I went back to the Hermes cabin to get my things. When I entered I was soaked in green goo. "Clarke, Lewis" I bellowed. Everyone in the cabin pointed to a closet near the back. "ANOIKTÍ̱" (open) I muttered and the doors flew open revealing a very scared Alfie and Jerome. "Oh, shouldn't have messed with a Hecate kid. They can use magic" one of the other Hermes kids said. I sneezed then suddenly I sent all the goo flying towards the two. Everybody laughed and I stormed off with my bags to the Hecate cabin trying to hide how hard I was really laughing. I could get used to this magic thing. I walked up to Cabin 20. It was made out of stone and had glowing writing on it, not bad. When I entered the senior counselor named Lou Ellen greeted me and showed me my bed. "Hey, Patricia" she said as she was helping me unpack my things. "What?" I replied to her. "Since you're a daughter of Hecate, you can use magic. Although some are more powerful than others, but anyway if you want tomorrow we can go to the armory and pick a weapon or you could stick to just using magic. What do you think?" she said with a smirk. I was beginning to like this girl. "I'd love to. I can use it to scare those two bozos and get back at them" I said mirroring her smirk. We both laughed and went to bed.
Jerome's POV:
"Wow, Trixie learned a new trick" Alfie said in amazement after she left. "I know dude, got to find someone else to prank" I suggested. Travis and Connor Stoll walked up to me, one twin on either side and both said "You messed up big time bro. Hecate kids always get revenge. One time we hid one of Hecate kid's spell book and let's just say it didn't end well". "Note taken, don't mess with cabin 20" Alfie joked as we left to get the goo cleaned off.
The Next Day:
Nina's POV:
I woke up with a start and looked around. I was in some kind of infirmary. Chiron was looking over me and gave me a glass of nectar. "Don't drink too much or you might end up disintegrated. This is drink of the gods" he warned. I nodded drank carefully. "Are you feeling better now?" he asked when I finished drinking. "Yeah, that really helped" I said with a smile. "Then you may leave the infirmary now. I suggest you go visit cabin 7 and look for your friend Fabian, he seemed very worried about you." he continued pointing at the door. I waved back to Chiron and he waved back. I left and started looking for cabin 7. I finally found it and it kind of looked like it was made of solid gold. I knocked on the door and a guy named Will opened it. "Looking for Fabian huh? Come in." he said. When I went inside there were a bunch of kids who were either playing an instrument or with a basket ball. I couldn't find Fabian anywhere. I felt a tap on my back and found him. "Hey! How did you do that? I didn't see you" I exclaimed before giving him a hug. "Oh, um yeah. Photo kinesis, allows me to control light, and I haven't really mastered it yet. But anyway are you OK?" he asked a bit dazed. "Yeah just fine but my locket is different, it's a skull now" I said "Oh yeah Chiron explained that" he said awkwardly then explained. "Hey, you want to go on a tour. We still have 30 minutes before breakfast" he continued and I grabbed his hand and said "I'd like that" as I pulled him outside. He showed me around the camp grounds and the cabins. He also told me who got claimed already and introduced me to some of the other campers. When we were walking through the woods and I stopped and he turned to me. "What's wrong?" he asked. "When did you get a bow and arrow" I asked him. How could I not notice it before? "Everyone has to have a weapon when they get claimed so Will took me to the armory and I kind of felt drawn to it" he tried to explain. "Ohh" I said as we continued on the tour. We separated to go back to our own cabin's table at the dining pavilion and went on with a regular day until about 3:00 in the afternoon when we were having 'tracking skills' lessons and we had to find one of the monsters. We did it by cabins. Chiron said whoever found it and captured it wouldn't have to do their chores for a week. Everyone was looking for it in the woods and somehow got separated from the rest of the Hermes kids. I was wondering around and then I found it. The monster, it was a big beast thing, with a body of a man, except hairy and had a head of a bull. Weirdly he was wearing only under wear, not a clean one too. It was a Minotaur and I was unarmed. Suddenly something took over me and I was controlling the ground making small earthquakes and boulders crash into it. Now the Minotaur was unconscious and I was gasping for a breath. Everyone was now staring at me. "Hail Nina Martin. Daughter of Hades, lord of the dead." Chiron announced. There was a glowing helm over my head. "What? Hades is my dad? As in the ruler underworld? Are you sure?" I asked in dismay. "Yes child. Now where is Nico?" he said searching through the crowds. "Well since Nina was the one to defeat the Minotaur, without the help of her former cabin mates" Chiron said glaring at cabin 11 and then continued "Nina's new cabin will receive the prize. Now go on to your next activity. I believe it's time to do your laundry". Everybody shrugged and started washing their clothes. Now it was free time and I decided to check out my new cabin. I walked up to it and it kind of freaked me out. The cabin walls were made of solid obsidian. There was a skull over the door. It had torches that burned green fire for twenty-four hours a day apparently. It was designed mainly by Nico di Angelo, my half-brother; I still couldn't get over being the daughter of the lord of the dead. I walked in and saw a guy lying down on his bed sleeping. He had shaggy and messy black hair, olive skin. He wore mostly black, kind of goth looking, must be Nico. I shook him and woke him up. "What are you doing here? Only Hades kids can come through the door and you definitely don't look like a Hades kid." He said confused. I did agree with him, I definitely did not look like a Hades kid. I was wearing a camp half blood shirt Travis 'got' for me, white shorts and yellow sneakers. Not very Hades, I know. "I got claimed a while ago, Chiron said for you to help me make a weapon and help me master my 'powers'" I explained. "Ah, I see now. OK first let me tell you about us Hades kids. First here is what we can do. We can shadow travel, we have control over the furies, geo kinesis, which is control of the earth, levitating rocks and making them deadly, black, and extremely sharp, the ability to create earth tremors, and open fissures in the earth. Summoning the dead and communicating with them. Umbra kinesis, which is control over darkness and shadow and we are the only demigods who can destroy skeleton warriors. It's a long list but basically controlling things that have to do with death or the ground. Oh and by the way remind me to take you to the underworld this Saturday so we can make your sword. For now just use one in the armory." he explained. I just nodded and he showed me my bed. "Thanks Nico" I whispered as he was helping me unpack my things. "You're welcome. You know you remind me a lot of my sister." He said in reply. "Well I am your sister" I said teasingly. "Yeah but we had the same parents, not just godly parent. Hades really loved my mom, loved her enough to have 2 kids." Nico told me half heartedly. "You miss her don't you? Why don't you tell me about your sister" I said motioning him to sit down with me on the floor. "Her name was Bianca, she was my only family after my mom died but she left me to become a hunter. I asked Percy to keep her safe on the quest they had to do but then she died protecting them. I got made at Percy but Bianca told me that was our fatal flaw. Holding Grudges, so I forgave him and now he's my best friend. I know I can summon her of visit her in the underworld but it's not the same." He said now leaning his head on my shoulders and I was trying to comfort him. "You know what Nico?" I said while trying to make him feel better, "What?" he said "You're like the brother I never had" I said smiling which made him feel better. "Well I am your brother" he said teasingly and we went on with our day normally.
Mara's POV:
It was free time and Mick and I were going for a walk through the woods. We stopped and had a picnic. We were in the middle of our conversation then both our jaws hit the ground. "You've been claimed" we both said at the same time "Your mom is Nike, goddess of victory" I told Mick and he told me "I'm not sure who your parent is but there's a silver owl over your head". "Athena, goddess of wisdom" I said and we ran off to tell Chiron. We were about to enter the room but we saw Chiron talking to a girl and she started saying the 'prophecy' as Chiron called it.
"For 10 demigods they must leave soon.
One is the Sun the other the Night's Moon.
Two of the Dark, one of the Wise
But only the Sea and Lightning will hear the cries.
Beauty and Blacksmiths will not agree
And only a Hunter can set them free.
You will think it is over but not for long.
I say to my dear heroes, Stay Strong."
A/N: please comment who you think the people in the prophecy are. Thank you for all the views and hits.
