After spending the day of training, and succeeding in getting a little better, in the fact that she didn't nearly kill anything. She spent a good deal of the night staying awake with her cabin while they worked on various things.
She was sitting on her bunk, reading while watching Annabeth start working on the temple to Apollo while Malcolm, already on his second cup of coffee for that night, helped her. Not that she needed it, it's just that the gods were known for being impatient and, with his help, she was able to get the job done faster.
Sophie wasn't really working on anything, she had no projects to do unlike most of her cabin so, she just spent the time before she fell asleep reading the book "Gods hero's and monsters". She found it amusing that the same book was published in another dimension.
When she did fall asleep, she more or less passed out. This time when she woke up, it was in Diana's bed. Happy to be back where things made a little sense, she was only a little annoyed by the fact that she couldn't move for a minute.
When she could move, she sat up in the bed, to find Diana sleeping on the floor looking much more peaceful than when she was awake and, not a bit uncomfortable. Sophie suspected that after a couple hundred of years of near nonstop camping; even the floor would be comfortable.
She looked at the clock, it was five thirty in the morning and, she despaired at the fact that she was already hungry.
Just when Sophie was about to go back to sleep, Diana awoken by the noise, murmured, "You don't have to wait to eat, my brother should be down there too."
"Why did you say that?" How Diana could guess that she was hungry at this time in the morning was beyond her.
"You are always hungry in the mornings and, you would rather starve than eat at someone's house without permission."
Sophie was silently cursing the fact that Diana seemed to know more about her that she did.
After avoiding a resting Diana, she crept down the stairs hoping that she wouldn't wake anyone else up.
When she got to the kitchen, she was greeted by the unfortunate sight of Aaron shoveling cereal in his mouth.
He looked up enough to mumble through his cereal what sounded like "morning Sophie" then, he went back to his breakfast while, Sophie went to the fridge, the rumbles in her stomach urging her on.
She grabbed the orange juice carton and, poured herself some after rummaging around the kitchen a little to find a cup.
By the time she sat across from Aaron, he had managed to eat all of his cereal and, was now fiddling with his IPod without even bothering to clean his plate up.
"I see that you still get hungry early in the mornings." He was still looking at his IPod but, now had a smirk on his face.
"Like your one to talk." Sophie wondered if boys had a bottomless pit where their stomachs should be.
"Hey I have an excuse; I used to put up the sun for around two millennia. I naturally get up early in the mornings. I don't see your's."
"I always wake up early for the food then go back to bed." Sophie was regularly compared to a zombie in the mornings by her family who, could get up before noon without prompting by their stomachs.
"You were always like that," Leto came down the stairs greeting the teenagers with a smile. "I remember when you first came out with Zeus's head, the first chance you got, you started eating." Then after a pause, "It looked like you needed it to. You were all skin and bones."
Remembering the conditions that according to her dreams she grew up in, she didn't think that she ate more than imaginary food. She thought that it was a wonder that she survived at all.
"Sophie and her weird eating habits aside," Sophie pouted even though she knew that he was joking. "What are we going to do today? Mrs. Monster-magnet here needs training at some point."
Sophie was tempted to inform them about the demigod's efforts to train her but, she decided it was a good idea to listen to her counterpart's advice. Even if it still mystified her why she was the only one allowed to know that she had a counterpart.
"We can always ask someone else to train her." Diana came down the stairs running her fingers through her bed head. When she got downstairs, she sat next to Sophie, "My brother and I would train you but, you were never good with the bow and arrow."
Sophie grimaced slightly, remembering how she nearly murdered Chiron. "I can believe that, who is going to train me then?"
Aaron smirked, "Not telling, though, I know just the person who would be eager for the job."
Sophie had the feeling that she wasn't going to like who was going to train her at all.
Sorry for the wait, again.
Hope you like this chapter anyways. Even if it is a filler.
