Hey everyone just want people to know that i have a had one or two saying Naruto doesn't have enough physical features of his moms so just to let you know when Naruto gets claimed a few little physical features will change. It won't be anything major but enough for people to see physical traits of his mother. Since that happened to Piper when she was claimed something similar will sort of happen to Naruto but not as extreme and will only be minor like im thinking an auburn colored streak in his hair and one of his blue eyes turning silver. If you have nay other little traits that could be changed let me know. :)


Chapter 6

Chiron and Naruto neared the giant outdoor dining pavilion which they could both see and hear was already filled with all the campers. Naruto could hear people talking, laughing, burping, and even a few playful arguments.

"So Grover mentioned I would be staying at the Hermes cabin" he said striking up conversation with veteran centaur.

"That's correct. Its where all the unclaimed demi gods go since Lord Hermes is happy to look after those who are unclaimed which makes him a favourite and well respected member of the twelve Olympians."

"Wells that's good of him. How long do you have to wait to be claimed?"

Chiron had a somber look cross his face. "Ahh well it varies. Some get claimed straight away within a few days, some maybe a few months, some a few years but some unfortunately never get claimed. Unfortunately not all demi gods are recognised by their godly parent and are simply forgotten about."

"Then why would they have them if they weren't going to at least claim them. Show them they at least care for them?"

"Well that is a question I think many want answered but in my experience its best not to ask. The gods can be very temperamental when they want to be."

"Fair enough" Naruto said. The two lapsed into a quick silence before Naruto asked another question.

"Can I ask why does Hera have an honorary cabin when Lady Hestia doesn't? From what I have heard about Hestia it's that she is a favourite and likable goddess? Shouldn't she have a cabin in her honour as well?" Naruto asked.

Chiron sighed. "Well it is quite unfortunate really. Lady Hestia was once one of the twelve Olympians but when Dionysus came along its caused a bit of an uproar. She willingly gave up her seat to him when she saw how far things were beginning to escalate and to avoid a war happening. But slowly over time people just began to forget about her. Even some of her family rarely notice her these days."

"That's really really sad" Naruto thought. He felt some kind of connection with Hestia in some sort of weird way. He guessed it was perhaps because they were both rarely looked upon by others and were not really care much for. He hated that when he was growing up so he could only imagine how Hestia had it living for over three thousand years.

They arrived at the dining pavilion but just as Naruto was about to head over Chiron put a hand on his shoulder and looked down at him.

"Naruto Mr D told me about the hardship that a jinchurikii has had to face and I just want you to know that you won't have to face those kinds of hardships here and the camp welcomes you with open arms. Do not feel like you need to hide yourself from people here. If or when you decide to tell people about the fox know that although they maybe a little weary of you, they will accept you. They all know what it's like to be looked down on and we all consider each other friends and family here. So know that when you want to tell everyone we will accept you for who you are."

Hearing Chiron telling him that he would be accepted here made Naruto slightly near up before he quickly wiped a straw tear away.

"Thank you Chiron, you don't know how much I appreciate hearing that."

Chiron gave him a kind smile before the two continued walking in. "When Mr D introduces you to everyone he will let them know that you come from the Elemental Nations but will keep the fox secret until you want to tell them."

Naruto nodded and the two headed towards it.

The first thing Naruto noticed when he walked in was how many campers there were. There must have been around two hundred all varying from different ages. They all sat at specific stone picnic tables. One was mast with a huge number of people that was beginning to overflow with people on it.

Another made Naruto blush when he saw that all the people sitting at the table were incredibly pretty. They all had perfect skins and all wore make up, some more than others. The girls were the definition of girly girls, even the boys.

At another table he saw Annabeth sitting with a group that all had similar features to her. The blonde hair and the tanned skin with grey eyes. She spotted him looking over and gave him a small wave which he returned.

But then he noticed there was about four tables that were completely unoccupied which to Naruto looked like a complete waste. He had a feeling this was like the cabins. Every child of a certain god or goddess goes to a specific table. The overcrowded one had to be the Hermes table and guessed many of them there were kids who had not been claimed yet.

He then looked around to see if he could find the raven haired girl but with all the people in the room and no not exactly recognising the face properly since his vision was a little blurry he struggled to find her.

When they walked in the commotion all seemed to stop and they all looked over towards him and began to whisper.

"Hey that's him. One of the two that be the- you know"

"I wonder if he is a good fighter. He must be if what we heard was right, right?"

"Look those whiskers on his face. He looks so cute"

"Hot Damn"

Naruto blushed at the last two comments since he was not exactly use to those kind of comments being made to him.

"Luke could you come over here for a second" Chiron called out which made a one of the boys from the cramped table walk over. The boy was a lot older then everyone else he had seen so far, around nineteen at most. He had sandy blonde hair with light blue eyes with very elfish like features and a pointy face. But the most notable feature was a long white scar that went down his right cheek.

"Luke this is Naruto Uzumaki one of the new campers who arrived last night. I'll leave him with you" Chiron said before he trotted over to where Mr D was sitting.

"Well it's nice to meet you Naruto. Odd name if you don't mind me saying. It sounds kind of Japanese for an american. I'm Luke son of Hermes and the head of the Hermes cabin."

"It's nice to meet you" he said shaking Luke's hand. "Yeah I get that a lot. My name means maelstrom and if you ever look it up don't believe what anyone tells you. It does not mean fishcake" he said getting a chuckle from Luke.

"I'll try to remember that" he said before he led Naruto over to the Hermes table.

"Make room guys" he said causing the table to shift a little as Naruto took a seat next to Luke.

"Well welcome to Camp Half Blood. We have to admit we are all quite impressed by your action with the other boy last night. Defeating the bull man is quite the achievement, especially from those who have not had any training."

"Well I wouldn't say I didn't have any training exactly but I have found a bit of teamwork can go far."

"True I guess" Luke said not looking to convinced but Naruto shrugged it off. "Ahh its looks like Mr D is about to speak."

Mr D got up from his seat rather reluctantly if the face he was giving was any indication. He cracked his knuckled before he stood in front of everyone as the whole pavilion went quiet to hear what he was about to say.

"Alright brats listen up because I will only say this once" he said in a bored tone. "As you all know we had two new arrivals last night. One is with us tonight while the other is still uncounisous and is healing. I'm sure you have all been wondering whether the rumour about them defeating the Minotaur was true. Well I'm here to clarify that it is indeed true.

That caused many to begin whispering before Mr gave them a look that quickly shut them all up. He clicked his finger and the shoebox containing Naruto's Minotaur horn appeared in front of him. Naruto opened it up and many gasped a little when they saw the horn knowing now full well that it was true. Many on the Hermes table marveled at it while Naruto could see that over at one of the other tables that was filled with big and burly kids they were looking at him with a bit of jealousy in their eyes.

"Don't worry" Luke said whispering to him. "That's just the Ares table. They are probably just mad that they didn't get a chance to fight it" he said getting a nod from Naruto before Mr D began speaking again.

"The one who joined us tonight is Naruto Uzumaki" he said which caused many to whisper. The whispers were a little odd since they were saying whether it was his real name or if Mr D was just messing with names again like he always was. It was quickly cleared up when Luke stood up and told them it was his actual name.

Naruto asked what that was about but Luke just waved it off.

"Anyway Mr. Uzumaki is not like normal demi gods and is quite a bit different from all of you" he said causing them all to glance at him with curiosity.

"By different I mean he is from a different world." That immediately shut everyone up and all began to listen intently. "Unknown too many there is a separate dimension, an alternate world if you will known as the Elemental Nations. There the landscape is completely different and they have their own history that dates back thousands of years if not longer."

"There they have warriors known as Shinobi or as your might all know them as ninja. They are a part of everyday society and shinobi's are mortals who can perform amazing feats by using an energy known as chakra. It lets them have the ability to bend the elements; they are masters of hand to hand combat and swordsmanship among others. There society is different from the one you all know in this world."

"Naruto is the first demi god shinobi to ever come to this camp and therefore please welcome him with open arms" Mr D said dryly before he turned around and sat back down.

For the next few minutes the whole room was silent as every camper had their eyes directed towards Naruto who was once again beginning to shift uncomfortably in his seat. Many looked gobsmacked while he couldn't help but notice the table Annabeth was sitting at all looked like Christmas had just come early.

"N-Naruto is that true?" Luke asked voicing the question everyone wanted answered. Naruto just nodded his head confirming everything Mr D just said was true.

"Do you think you could show us a shinobi trick?" Luke asked

"Urm sure" he said standing up as everyone turned in their seat to get a good look at what he was about to do. He quickly thought about what to do before he decided on walking up one of the stone pillars. He applied chakra before he put one foot up against one of the pillar and began walking vertically up it. It immediately caused everyone to make a little gasp.

"Woh looks at that"

"He's like spider man"

"I wonder what else he could do?"

Hearing the other last voice Naruto jumped down all the way from the ceiling and stood in front of everyone.

"I can also do this" he said making a quick hand sign before he erupted in a cloud of smoke. When the smoke cleared many gasp and fall out their seat when they saw a carbon copy of Mr D standing where Naruto use to be. All the campers were moving their heads back and forth between the real Mr D and the copy. Mr D looked it over before nodding at how well the copy was. So Naruto then made another hand sign and he quickly turned back.

When he changed back he was immediately swarmed by the other campers all wanting to ask him question about his world, how he came to their world and what other tricks could he do. He swore he even heard some ask whether he had a girlfriend.

Luckily for him Chiron quickly called everything back to order and everyone returned to their seats. "Well now that the introduction is done we can all eat." Chiron then stamped his hooves and shouted out "TO THE GODS."

"TO THE GODS" everyone shouted including Naruto before everyone began to fill their plates.

Wood nymphs then came out with more platters of food which was filled with grapes, apples, strawberries, cheese, fresh bread, a whole variety of food.

Naruto looked it over and had to admit the food all looked amazing. But there was just something missing.

"I wonder if they do ramen?" he said aloud which was heard by one of the passing wood nymphs. She clicked her fingers and big bowl of ramen filled with noodles and pieces of pork appeared in front of him.

He felt like wrapping the wood nymph in a hug and asking her to marry him but he kept his cool and gave her a pleasant thank you to which she appreciated before making her rounds.

He poured some of the ramen into a smaller bowl and made sure to have plenty of pork and noodles in it. He was about to chow down before Luke got up and motioned for him to follow him.

"Before we start eating we take a portion of our food and scrape it into the pot over the fire as an offering to them. The gods love the smell of burnt food so we offer them a small bit of each of ours."

"Oh okay. Little weird but I won't judge" Naruto said getting a small chuckle from those around him.

He waited patiently as everyone scraped a portion of their food into the pot, made a small prayer before going back to their seat. Luke who was just in front of him had finished his offering by sliding some apple pieces into the pot before Naruto stepped up for his turn.

"Well I have never done something like this before so here it goes. If you can hear me mom then this offering is for you. If you're anything like me then you will like the smell of ramen. Enjoy" he said as he poured some of the ramen in with a few bits of noodles and pork going with it.

He turned around and was about to leave before he remembered something both Chiron and Grover said. So he quickly scooped a little bit more into the pot before whispering "this is for you too Lady Hestia. Just to show that you're not forgotten."

The fire underneath the pot suddenly got higher and flickered brightly as if it was saying thank you. He walked back over to the table and sat back next to Luke before he dug into his meal.

For the next hour he spoke and idly chatted with Luke about the camp and joked around with two of Luke's brothers the twins Travis and Connor Stoll. Both boys had taken a liking to Naruto when he told them he was a bit of a prankster extraordinaire. He told them about some of the pranks he did back at Yancy and the infamous painting on the Hokage monument.

When the boys heard how he painted a giant monument in broad daylight wearing kill me orange both boys burst out laughing and began bowing down to Naruto. Even Luke and some of the other Hermes kids gave a chuckle. Thought they weren't pranking crazy like the twins were, they were still children of Hermes so it just ran through their blood.

Eventually dinner ended and everyone made their way down to the amphitheatre where the children of Apollo were singing an acapella version of a variety of songs.

He looked around and saw everyone laughing and smiling with marshmallows on the end of a stick in front of a large fire while others were joking around or telling each other stories. It was only the first day and already Naruto was beginning to feel at home here.

He sensed a presence sit next to him and looked over and saw Annabeth sitting next to him with stars in her eyes and a small notebook and pencil in her hand.

"I take it you want to know a bit more about my world? He said getting her nodding her head like a mad person which caused him to chuckle.

"Alright then" Naruto said as he began to explain to Annabeth the concept of shinobi's and why they exist. That they were the military forces for the hidden villages and that they could wield an energy known as Chakra. When she asked whether it was Chakra he used to do those feats he did in the dining pavilion Naruto nodded his head.

He then went on to describe the five major nations which caused Annabeth to start writing and jotting things down like crazy. That each one was different in landscape like the land of wind was one giant desert while the land of fire was a giant forest. When he said that, some of the wood nymphs and satyrs overheard him and looked over in wonder before they zoned off into a dream like state.

"In each village we have a leader which is known as a kage. In the village I'm from, the village hidden in the leaves Konoha we have the Hokage. The current Hokage is the Fifth Hokage Tsunade Senju. She is also a member of the Sannin."

"The leader of your village is a woman?" she said a little surprised since most high class leaders were normally men but to hear of a woman who was the leader and was recognised as the strongest in the village slightly surprised her. It got a nod of confirmation from Naruto

"What's a Sannin?" she then asked not recognising the word.

"Ahh well the Sannin are titles given to a group of shinobi from the leaf village. The group was a team that was trained by the Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi and they played a pivotal role in the Second Shinobi War. In the second war they fought and managed to survive against a man known as Hanzo the Salamander. He was recognized at the time as the strongest Shinobi in the world. At seeing how strong they were he let them live for giving him a good fight before giving them the title of Sannin."

"The three Sannin are Tsuande Senju, Jiraiya the Toad Sage and Orochimaru" he said as he said the last name with venom in his voice which Annabeth caught on too but let it drop.

"This is incredible" Annabeth muttered as she was scribbling away on her notepad. "A whole other world. A completely different civilization. It's amazing, there so much to learn."

"I take it you like to learn" Naruto said which got Annabeth rapidly nodding her head.

"I love it. As a child of Athena I'm pretty much expected to love to learn. Reading especially."

"Athena? As in the goddess of wisdom and battle" he said getting a nod from Annabeth. "That's awesome."

"Thanks. You never know she could be your Olympian parents too since your unclaimed."

"Well if I am then I guess that would kinda make me your brother" he said causing Annabeth to smile brightly. Before the two could continue their conversation Chiron's voice sounded out through the amphitheatre telling everyone it was time to head back to their cabins.

As everyone got up Naruto was about to join before a thought quickly appeared in his head. He tapped Annabeth shoulder getting her attention.

"Annabeth you were the one who found Grover, Percy and I with Chiron last night right?" He asked getting a nod from the girl. "Could you tell me who the other girl was?"

"Oh sure, the other girl was Silena Beauregard. She's a daughter of Aphrodite and the one that helped you back to camp while I helped your friend Percy. She urm, ahh she is just over there" she said pointing over towards a group of girls that were just leaving the amphitheatre. They were all stunning beautiful but Annabeth pointed to the one in the middle of the group.

Naruto breathing hitched slightly when he saw her. She was by far the most stunning of the group and must have been only a year younger than him since she looked about the same age. Her raven black hair blended in with the night sky perfectly while her dazzling blue eyes seemed to sparkle in the night. Her skin was slightly tanned but a little lighter then Annabeth's tanned skin. All in all Naruto couldn't take his eyes away from her.

Said girl then looked over and spotted him looking in her direction which caused a hint of pink to appear on her face before she gave a small wave to him.

Naruto waved back which caused the girls all around Silena to notice and begin to giggle at the little action before the group all left the amphitheatre.

"Come on Naruto" he heard as two pairs of arm appeared on his shoulder which belonged to Connor and Travis. "Let's head back. We don't want to be out here when those harpies are around" they said as they began leading him out with the others from the Hermes cabin.

He waved good bye to Annabeth before he set off. It only took a few minutes before he found himself standing outside the Hermes Cabin.

"It's not much but its home" the twins said together before they led Naruto inside.

When he walked in the first thing he noticed was how cramped it was. All the beds and bunk beds had been taken and there were sleeping bags littered all around the room.

"Here you go" Naruto Luke said appearing in front of him handing over a sleeping back and some toiletries. £Take this spot, no one's using it yet so you're welcome to it" he said pointing over to a spot next to the bunk beds that Connor and Travis slept on.

Just as Naruto was about to head over Luke tapped his shoulder. "Don't forget these. Since your part of this camp now you're pretty much required to have these" he said as he handed over a bright orange shirt with the words Camp Half Blood written in black along with a bare leather necklace.

"We all have the necklace" he said showing his that had five multi coloured beads on its. "Each bead represents one summer that we have been at camp. The little mark or picture on the bead shows what all the head councillors have agreed was the biggest event of that summer."

Naruto nodded in understanding and looked at Luke's necklace. "So since you have five beads on yours I guess you have been here for five summers right?" he said getting a nod from Luke.

"Thats right. Though a few stay here all year around due to their scent being strong enough that attracts monster or they simply don't have anywhere to go. Annabeth and I are year rounder's so we have stayed here all round for the past five years."

"I guess you and Annabeth know each other pretty well then" he mentioned getting a nod from Luke.

"Yeah we arrived here together. Guess she is kind of like a little sister to me in a way and we have been through a lot. Especially with Thalia" he said whispering out the last part.

"Thalia" Naruto said to himself. He remembered that name form the bus ride from Yancy Academy. He and Percy had herd Grover mention that name before.

"Who is this Thalia if you don't mind me asking? I heard Grover mention that name before."

When Naruto asked he noticed a dark look gross Luke's face as his hair slightly covered his eyes and his hand shake slightly next to his sides. "It's nothing. It's not a story many like to talk about especially myself, Grover and Annabeth."

"Let's just say there should have been another that arrived with me an Annabeth but that didn't happen" he said as Naruto caught him looking out the window and out at the big tree on top of the hill.

When Naruto turned around Luke was across the room. Since both Grover and Luke knew that name and Grover got sad over it while Luke was angry he guessed this Thalia person must have been a friend of theirs. Since they were talking in past tense he guessed something bad must have happened to her.

Naruto shook his head of the negative thoughts and went to wash. After he brushed his teeth and washed his face, he changed into a pair of shorts and t shirt and got in his sleeping back. He made sure Connor or Travis hadn't done anything to his sleeping back before he lay down and just looked up at the ceiling.

"Light out everyone" Luke voice said ringing out before the light went off. There were a lot of good nights while others grumble before Naruto shut his eyes. It defiantly was the greatest place to sleep but he made do before he quickly succumbed to sleep.


Next Day

Naruto had woken up fairly early since everyone else in the cabin was still sleeping so he went to bathroom, washed up, got changed with his new half blood t shirt on before he exited the cabin.

The sun had barely just come up so the morning mist around the camp was still there. He saw a few of the wood nymphs heading over towards the dining pavilion, no doubt they were preparing for the morning breakfast. Some of them looked over a little surprised to see him up already but he gave them a friendly smile and wave which they happily gave back.

He cracked is neck and did a few warm up stretches before he went for a morning run around the camp and put his IPod in his ears.

As he ran around the camp he looked at his surroundings and marvelled at how beautiful it looked under the first rays of the sun. Everything seemed to glimmer and shine especially the big golden cabin. He quickly looked at away when he feared he would go blind from looking at it for too long.

The run around camp didn't take long for him to finish before he wound up in front of the big house. He doubted anyone else was up but was surprised when he saw Chiron trotting up toward the big house with a surprised look on his face.

"My it is a bit early for you to be up Naruto. Couldn't sleep well?" He asked but Naruto shook his head.

"No believe it or not this is a usual time for me to wake up. Thought I would get some early morning training done before breakfast."

Chiron nodded pleased to see how quickly Naruto had adapted to camp.

"Well then I will leave you to it. Remember when the conch horn calls out breakfast will be ready" he said before he disappeared inside.

Naruto watched the centaur go before he made his way around camp and entered the big arena that he was told most went to so they could train.

He entered and found the place was a lot like the chunin exam arena in a way. The training ground was a large oval shape with wooden dummies planted all over the place. There were wooden stand wrapped around it where people could most likely watch. He guessed it was used for other events due to how many could be seated in the stands.

"Well let's get started" he said before he called out his patented shadow clone jutsu and forty clones appeared in front of him before he got into a fighting stance.

"Alright guys come at me with everything you got" he said making the come on motion with his hands.

"Yes boss" they all saluted before they all charged at him.


Two hours later

Luke made his way to the arena where Chiron had sent him to retrieve Naruto since the conch horn was about to blow any minute. The taller blonde was surprised to see Naruto had already woken up and gone out for a bit of morning training which left him a little impressed at the dedication.

However when he walked into the arena and saw Naruto fighting over a dozen copies of himself his jaw was left slightly open.

He was amazed at the feats these shinobi could do and watching Naruto fighting hand to hand with them all and winning was amazing. Luke realised then that Naruto may have just become a strong contender for the camps strongest demi god.

When Naruto beat the last clone of the third wave he spotted Luke watching him and figured it was time to end the morning training so he wiped the sweat of his brow before he walked over.

"Morning" he said as he chuckled at Luke's gobsmacked look.

"How?"

Naruto tapped his nose. "Shinobi trick" he said before the two walked off.

The morning from then on went pretty smoothly. When he got back to the Hermes cabin he took a quick shower getting rid of the sweat and smell he attained from training. He also rinsed his orange shirt before drying it with a quick wind jutsu which made the shirt as good as new.

Breakfast went smoothly except for the part where everyone heard Luke ask him about the copies he made. This got another information gathering session from Annabeth who had a brand new notepad in her hands. He told her about the technique before telling her would tell her more later to which agreed too.

After breakfast where Naruto ate enough for four people he went with the Hermes cabin for a Greek lesson. He was surprised when he found Annabeth was the teacher but Connor and Travis told him she was the best at speaking and talking Greek since she was a daughter of Athena.

When the lesson got underway Naruto was amazed that he could understand everything in the Greek textbook and marvelled at finally being able to read properly which caused many in the room to chuckle. Half the reason he hated reading the past was due to not being able to read the text in books but now he might just give it a chance.

After an interesting lesson to which Annabeth told him he did well for his first time as two exited the classroom. But before they could both leave Grover came running up to them.

"Naruto, Chiron wanted me to let you know Percy is awake and is at the big house."

Naruto's eyes widened slightly before he grinned and made his way towards the big house. Grover and Annabeth followed too.

When he arrived he saw Percy was sitting in the same seat he was the day before with Chiron now back in his wheelchair. However Mr D didn't look too happy since his eyes looked like they were on fire with purple wisps coming out from them. The camp director saw Naruto coming over and gave the blonde a quick nod which Naruto did back.

"Jeez Percy what did you do to piss Mr D off?" he asked coming up being the black haired boy and getting a jump of surprise from Percy who's eyes widened when he saw his blonde friend.

"NARUTO" he said leaping of the chair to give his friend a quick hug. "Thank god you're okay. What is going on? I'm so confused and"-

"Calm down Percy" Naruto said patting Percy on the shoulder." I know it's a lot to take in but everything that Chiron and Mr D have said is the truth."

"You mean the gods being real and my mom being..."

"Yeah it's all real. I'm sorry about your mom Percy" he said. Percy looked down obviously trying to keep his tears at bay. The others had a look of sympathy especially Grover since he felt like it was his fault and that he should have protected them better while Mr looked like he didn't really care.

Naruto saw Annabeth and decided to quickly change the topic.

"Ahh Percy this is Annabeth. She's the one who found us and brought you to camp."

Percy looked up and Naruto could see a small shade of pink appear on Percy's face causing Naruto to inwardly smirk. It was silent for a few second as Naruto saw Annabeth grey eyes scanning Percy over as if she was trying to figure out the best way to take him down.

"You drool when you sleep" she said ending the silence causing Percy to face fault and Naruto to burst out laughing at how blunt she was. Grover and Chiron also chuckled while Percy looked like his pride had just taken a bit of a hit.

"Urm sorry" was all he managed to say before he decided to just stay quiet as Chiron who now leapt out of the wheel chair causing Percy's eyes to go all bug eyed.

"Come Percy I'll take you on a tour of the camp" he said as Annabeth then sprinted off along with Grover. However Naruto decided he would go with Percy just to make the boy feel better and so he had another familiar face with him.

Chiron took them on the same route Grover had taken them the day before. Naruto had already seen it all and was either day dreaming away or watching the other campers go about their day.

He listened in when Percy claimed to have seen something move the curtain from the attic window but Chiron quickly shot it down to it being nothing which Naruto found a little suspicious but let it go for now.

After about half an hour of Percy asking question after question they eventually got to the cabins.

When they got there Naruto looked around and saw that a tall well built girl about his age was staring at Percy as if he was fresh meat. She wore a red bandana on her head and had straggly brown hair. Over her orange shirt she wore a camo flack jacket.

The girl was lean but muscular. A lot more muscular then all the other girls he had seen around here. But Naruto had to admit she did look pretty. He thought she must have been one of the more rough and tumble kind of girls that isn't afraid to lay out a few punches and receive them back if the few old scars on her arms were any indication.

She was standing outside the red cabin with barbed wire on the roof. If Naruto could remember what Grover told him the other day that was the Ares cabin therefore making that girl a daughter of Ares.

"Ahh and this is where you will be staying until you are claimed" Chiron said as he led Percy towards the Hermes cabin.

Naruto was about to follow before he saw the stables just a little way off and decided to go check it out.

"I'm heading off, I'll see you later" Percy he called getting a timid nod from Percy. Percy knew he couldn't expect Naruto to stay with him all the time and was grateful for sticking with him this far.

As Percy walked toward the Hermes cabin where he saw Annabeth was waiting for him and Chiron Naruto made his way over to the stables. The stables were made of wood that was white in colour though some of the wood had clearly begun to fade while it also had a mix of brick and stone. There was bit of hay and vegetables lying over the place though it did look cleaner than most stable he had gone to which were not that many.

When he walked in he looked in amazement when he saw a long line of horse pens which house the most beautiful creature he had seen to date. The pegasi varied in colour from white, brown and gray. Their wing folded up on their sides just like that of a bird but they look magnificent.

He walked down the line and stopped in front of a beautiful Pegasus with snow white fur and wings and had an almost silver looking mane along its neck.

When he got close to the pen it was in it moved its head and looked right at him, its brown eyes staring deeply into his sapphire ones.

Naruto wasn't sure hwy but he felt like the horse was studying. Making sure he was not a threat to it and that it wouldn't hurt it.

A little shakily Naruto extended his arm out towards the Pegasus and outstretched his fingers. The Pegasus didn't move for about half a minute as it looked at his fingers before slowly it trotted towards him. Naruto held in his breath when it got close until the Pegasus's head now grazed the tips of his fingers. Light and carefully he put his palm onto the Pegasus's head and gently stroked the animal.

The Pegasus obviously liked the feeling since it whinnied a little and had an almost peaceful looked cross its face and eyes. Naruto was amazed at how comfortable the animal felt around him, it was like the animal just had an automatic trust in him.

"Beautiful isn't she" a voice called out causing Naruto's head to whip around and eyes widen slightly when none other than the girl he had been trying to talk to all day yesterday was standing there looking towards him and the Pegasus with a small smile on her face. She walked over and patted the Pegasus on the neck.

"Yeah she is. She is quite possible the most amazing animal I have ever seen" Naruto sad getting a nod in agreement from Silena.

"I'm surprised she has taken to you so quickly. It took me a few weeks before she felt comfortable to be around me. Guess you have a way with animals" she said as she gazed at Naruto who blush slightly at her stare.

"Maybe. I guess she just recognizes I am no threat to her" he said getting a satisfied nod from Silena. "I'm Naruto by the way."

Silena giggled. "Oh I know who you are. You have been quite the talk of the camp especially with your little display last night. I'm Silena Beauregard, daughter of Aphrodite."

"It nice to meet you" he said sticking his hand out to which Silena quickly shook along with a little giggle escaping from her mouth.

"You were the one who found me on the hill that night weren't you?" he said getting a confirming nod from Silena. "I just want to thank you for helping me. I was pretty out of it with Mr Beefcake whacking me in the chest."

"Your welcome" she said politely getting a small hint of pink appear on her cheeks from the thanks.

Naruto looked her over and saw she was wearing almost the same as the day before except her skirt was now light blue and she had silver coloured sandals on her feet. Her nails and toe nails were coloured a light blue to match her skirt and her eyes. One thought was going through Naruto's head at this point in time.

"The girls in the leaf village have nothing on her."

At the same time Silena was looking him over from the corner of her eyes. She saw that the Camp Half Blood shirt fitted him perfectly and framed his lean but muscular frame perfectly and was impressed with the black long shorts he was wearing and the black converses.

"I can see why so many of my sisters are falling for him already" she thought. "I do hope he isn't a son of Aphrodite. That would break a lot of hearts."

Both then caught each other staring sat one another before they quickly turned their heads hiding the pink on their cheeks before they both let out a little laugh. Naruto saw the necklace on around her neck and saw the one bead on it that was coloured blue.

"You have been here one year I guess from the bead" he said motioning to her necklace.

"Yeah I came here last summer when I was twelve. I spent about a week in the Hermes cabin before my mom claimed me. When most people look at me they just see this pretty girl who is a daughter of Aphrodite and that all I do is look in the mirror and talk about clothes and love and stuff. So I tried to branch myself out from that. I took up Pegasus riding lesson which I found I excelled out. I'm pretty confident in saying I'm one of the best Pegasus riders in the camp."

"If you like I could teach you how to ride one" she said tucking a strand of hair behind her ear a little nervously.

"S-Sure I'd really like that" Naruto said back stuttering a little at first and causing a big smile to cross Silena's face. The Pegasus was looking between the two and if Naruto didn't know any better he could have sworn she was smirking.

However before the two could talk anymore a blast that sounded like a small explosion sounded out through the air. Both Naruto and Silena looked at each other before they headed out of the stables to see what the commotion was.
