Diclaimer:

Dionysus: Jackie..Hehehe, doesn't…Own…anything… but - *falls asleep*

Me: except Luna and Ella!

Malcolm POV

I thought about Ella. She was claimed by Dionysus which pretty rare cuz' Dionysus doesn't like heroes or something. But he something about to arrogant. PSSHHH, me? ARROGANT! Ha, you wish…. Okay... Maybe a little… When I went down to breakfast; the purple in Ella's eyes was more pronounced. She was talking to Pollux. They looked like they were in deep conversation. Hey, I would be in deep conversation if I just got a new cabin-mate; especially if your lonely…or had a loss. Eh, Happy Thoughts Malcolm! The first thought that came into my head was the cookie monster. Hey! Don't critize me; I used to watch that until I was 7! Don't tell anyone I said that. She flickered her eyes over to me, Pollux following her gaze. I guess Pollux would be more protective of his siblings this time. I smiled weakly and sat with my brothers and sisters. All of them were talking about the Argo II blueprints. I joined in conversation; talking about how the propellers should be made of steel. Mid-way during the conversation Pollux and Ella were beside our table. Ella poked my shoulder gently. I looked over to her, her Dionysus-like features were standing out more now. She had silver charm bracelet with a bow and arrow, a sword, a knife, and some other thing. that must be her weapon of choice. She wore a silver head band, dark green grape vines decorating it. She opened her hand and grape appeared.

"Look what I can do!" I smiled. Even though she was acting like some eager 7-year old. Pollux simply smiled probably there because Ella was embarrassed to come alone or maybe he was her bodyguard. I saw Connor stand up and come over to us.

"Woah, Hot chick. Where are you from, SweetHart?"

"Dionysus" Pollux said through his teeth. Connor looked caught off guard by a second by Pollux's presence but then confidence regained.

"Just don't kill this one, K?" he taunted. Pollux's eyes lit of with anger, depression.

"How would it feel like if Stupid Kronos killed Travis?" he responded. By this time, the entire Athena cabin was looking at the people in front of us. Connor thought for a moment, then left, without a word.

"Imma go now" Pollux stated.

"I'll go with you" Ella said, giving her brother a hug. My brothers and sisters and I simply stared at each other.

"I say, they are on our capture the flag team" One of my brothers spoke. There were several nods in agreement but I don't know why they decided that in that conversation. I wasn't exactly the smartest of the bunch… we cleaned up, and went to our classes.

"Hey Malcolm" a voice said. I knew her. Meet Luna Divine, the Apollo kid with an ironic name. Her name was Italian and named after Artemis. She had black hair with bangs to long, and covered her eyes, but when you could see her eyes, they were light green. She looked more like Nyx kid, the goddess of the night. She wasn't your normal Apollo kid; as you could tell. But when her mom picked her up by the entrance every summer, you can tell Luna got her looks from her.

"Hey Lunatic" I said. I always called her Lunatic, I don't know why though. She gave me a hug. She was my best girl-friend. Not girlfriend, my friend that's a girl. Seriously who came up with that word? I expected Sirius Black to pop up and say "No, I'm Sirius!" yeah, I can be such a low-life. But I liked that, somehow. She gave me those Apollo-blinding smiles. Yep, she definitely had her father's smile. I tried, notice I said try, to match her smile. As you can guess, it's impossible. I wondered about Apollo's smile of his kids' smiles were so bright.

"C'mon! Chiron let us have a party at the beach!"

"Details?" I asked.

"Oh, Percy, Annabeth, The new Dionysus chick, Pollux, Will, Nico, Jake, Leo, Piper, Lacy, Jason, Katie, OOO! And the Stolls are bringing Coke!" Us demigods, love coke. Usually for us, coke was deal-sealer kind-of thing. I nodded. I went inside my cabin to change. My grey swim-trunks. That's an Athena kid for you. I walked out and headed for the beach. I saw Ella. I had forgotten she was coming too. She wore a simple purple bikini that matched her eyes. She had a pair on sunglasses on too. She was with Pollux, probably still comforting him. I looked to the water to see Annabeth an Percy making out- not pretty by the way; and everyone else splashing each other. I sat down in the sand, running a hand through my hair. Luna had started playing some game with Will and Piper. I was lonely. A lonely person destined to die alone. I don't think Aphrodite likes me very much… I sighed, stood up and headed for the water. Instead of the Stolls let me get used the water, they pushed me, and I fell in the water.

"Eh you alright Malcolm?" everyone asked.

"Yeah, yeah, Sure." Annabeth, Ella, and rest of the girls gave me a look a sympathy, while shooting the others a look that said 'Tsk, tsk. You, should be ashamed of yourself young man, Go to your room!' That was their motherly-sympathetic side. The other side, as far I was concerned, was teddy bears, clothes, and baby animals. Dionysus came running in.

"Hey Mary, hi Lucy, Annie Bell, Peter, Charlie, Nick, Lee, Princess, Laily, Kate, Walter, Ella and Pollux" Funny how he said his kids names right.

"Hey Dad!" Ella and Pollux said. Dionysus smiled and turned to the rest of us.

"Chiron, said Blah blah blah not important blah blah blah"

"I don't think he said that" the smart alec named Nico said.

"Shhh! Mr. D; what did Chiron say?"

"Hmm…Something about harpies…?" he thought out loud. He continued to talk to himself as he walked away. Some weirdo he was.

"OH NO! BED TIME!" Annabeth and I yelled. Us Athena loved to follow rules. We ran to back to our cabins, everyone stopping at the door to wave at everyone. I climbed into bed, thinking about Annabeth's shiny laptop. Yes, I sounded like an Apollo kid because I said Shiny.
