And Just something extra this is a poem I wrote in Physics the other day cause I was bored and I thought I'd share.
This I Know
I hear the nervous laughter of the birds, Singing their songs in a meloncally tone.
I feel the breeze caressing my skin, the wind dancing freely in my hair.
I taste the cold morning dew in my mouth, the sweet chapstick on my lips.
I smell the sweet scent of flowers in the meadow, the bees making honey in their hives.
I sense the mice scurring into their holes, the deer laping up fresh cold water from the creek.
I open my heart and see.
I see the tall dark pines looming over me, the sparse grass crushed around my form.
I know the nervous laughter of the birds with their sickly sweet songs.
I know the breeze brushing against my skin with the wind blowing through my hair.
I know the freezing dew in my mouth, the bland coating on my lips.
I know the intoxicating scent of the lilies in the meadow, the mouth watering aroma of the honey of the bees.
I know I know the mice racing to their homes, the deer peacefully quenching their thirst.
I open my mind and know.
I know the giant trunks with their green hoods guarding me, the deadening grass smashed into the ground about me.
I understand all of these things, better than I understand myself.
This interacting cycle of life is never complete.
And I am proud that this is the place that is my final and eternal resting place.
This I know is pure and kind.
And I will forever watch over this place.
This I absolutely know.
Chapter 8: Caught Pure and Simple with a Huge Dash of Glitter:
"Well I think we should first show you to Chiron and Mr. D at the Big House and then A tour." Annabeth started to walk in the direction of the huge farm house, and I figured that I would probably be staying here for awhile.
"Well, Chiron was interesting, and Mr. D reminded me of a child throwing a temper tanturm." I remarked after leaving the big house with Annabeth. She was still laughing at my reaction and unusual conversation with Mr. D, who actually seemed to like me. Crazy I know, but at least I'm on his good side! Hmm, I wonder if I should explain it too you? Well maybe later cause it was nonsense, but it had to do with wine, a grape soda can, Pac-Man, and parties.
"Yeah, Chiron has lots of knowledge, and Mr. D is here because he was sort of, hmm grounded, by Zeus." Annabeth informed me, while leading me over to the Hermes cabin. Chiron had decided that since I wasn't offically claimed yet, I had to stay in the Hermes cabin. The heads of the Hermes cabin were Connor and Travis Stoll, which I found it pretty funny considering their father and last name. Anyway, they were the oldest children of Hermes considering they were 30, just like Percy, and they too looked the age of 18. Which I found odd. I wanted to ask Annabeth, but she had to go teach a class, so she was on the way to deposit me to the second in command of the Hermes cabin, Jacob Mitchel. We opened the door to the Hermes cabin and looked inside to find four kids sitting in a circle on the floor. Annabeth pointed to the one farthest from us. That was Jacob. He had shaggy grey hair that reached his chin, and light brown eyes that seemed to have a tiny hint of orange in them. He looked to be about 16 or 17, either way he was still older than me. He was wearing a worn out looking baseball type cap, and had three scars on his left cheek. He smiled when we noticed that we had walked in, and started pushing things behind his back.
"Jake, Meda is a new camper who will be staying in the Hermes cabin for the time being. Be nice, and that better not be a prank for my cabin, or else you are dead." And with that she promptly whipped around and marched out the door. I stayed where I was waiting for the introductions, that were bound to follow her departure.
"Hey, Meda, I'm Jacob Mitchel, but I like to be called Jake." He smiled and motioned for me to sit down in between him and the only other guy.
"This is Presleigh Austin, daughter of Hectate, and my girl friend." This earned him a punch in the arm from a pretty girl with purple hair and red eyes. She nodded to me and added her own 'Hey'. Jake continued, seeming used to being punched in the arm.
"And this is Bryce Traven, Daughter, oh I mean SON of Ares." Jake spoke with a smirk that was quickly wiped away by a punch in the stomach from the said Bryce. Bryce had brown eyes with red flecks, dark brown hair, a built figure, and skin tanner than Percy's. He glared at Jake but then nodded his head toward me motioning a slight acceptance.
"And lastly but certainly not least, Rileigh Larson, daughter of Dionysus, and Bryce's girl friend." Jake seemed to look at her with caution, and didn't even make a joke about her. I got the feeling from his behavior, that she was even more scary than Bryce, who was a kid of the war god. But I was left unsure when she flashed me a brillent smile. She was gorgeous, with dark brown hair, and midnight wine eyes. She was in a cream colored dress and looked to proper for the mud that was smeared on her hads, and the blood dried on the sword in her lap.
I smiled back to each one of them, but remained aware of Jake, he seemed to have a trick just waiting for me. Jake seemed oblivious though, and smiled a grand toothy grin. He waved his ams in a superfical manner, swinging them in a round circle. As he brought his arms back to their normal position, a loud blaring noise went off. The room exploded. Streamers flying. Sparklers being lit. Glitter attaching itself to everything that exisisted in its range, only to be carried off and spread throughout the whole camp with a matter of hours, such is the life of glitter. I wasn't all that bothered I've done worse myself, but Rileigh and Bryce looked like they were about to blow a gasket. THIS Jake noticed. With a quick 'Bye' directed toward me he pushed past me and out the door. I've never seen anyone run so fast in my life, but both Rileigh and Bryce were in pursuit and hot on his trail. I had a slight feeling this wouldn't turn out well. For him that is.
"I second that", Alkaios whispered gleefully, I guess it was a hilarious sight. A sparkling sun high in the sky, a beautiful camp and a lone child running for his dear life from a very angry girl in a dress and a boy with daggers already out and in his hands. Alexios just snorted like this was too much of a waste of time for him to put any effort to actually paying attention.
I sat down and smiled at Presleigh, I have never been good at starting up conversations so I just waited for her to start talking. I had a feeling that she was a chatter box, and I was right she was talking a mile a minute without even bothering to breath.
"So, Where are you from? Do you know anyone here? What happened to make you come, like you know monster attack the gods claiming you etc. How old are you? Who do you live with? Got any sibs? Know any magic, and if not do you want to learn?..." She kept asking me questions at such a rapid speed I felt I was being shot over and over again with a machine gun.
"Uhhh..." was my smart reply, sometimes I fear I'm getting too much like Percy for my own good.
Presleigh looked at me and started to answer her questions by herself, like I wasn't even needed to answer them.
"Mmmmmhmmm, must be a New Yorker." Seeing my baffled look she started to explain, "Well Logan doesn't ever stray very far, and you got here the smae day she left had to be New York. So that answers the question of do you know anyone here," She was going along tapping her fingers and counting off each questioned she answered. "Probably attacked by a monster cause the magic of nector is still on you. You look around 14, am I right?" She looked me in the eyes and I nodded my head mystified how in the world did she know all this?
I got the stupidly simple answer from know it all Alexios. " Because she is using magic to help her find out information about you, and otherwise she is just using her head to reason things out, something you don't seem to know how to do." I swear if Alexios was human he would be snearing at me and shaking his head like I was an ignorant comedian prancing around for his enjoyment.
Presleigh seemed to fizzle out and stood up. "I better go and save my idoit boyfriend or we won't get to finish pulling the awesome prank we set up for tonight." With that she waved her hand and jogged out the open door into the blinding sun. Leaving me alone. Well as alone as you can be with two swords sharing your mind.
"So", I spoke outloud to both Alkaios and Alexios. "Let's see what this camp has to offer us!" And with that I raced out the door and into the rolling hills covered in strawberries. If Percy knew I was here he would be mad. He never wanted me to go to his camp. But here I was and I was not letting anyone know that I was Percy's full sister, cause that could attract unessary attention. I mean if he didn't tell anyone here then maybe he didn't want anyone to know. I continued my run down to the beach, only slowing my pace as I got to the sand. The tiny grains imbeded themselves into my shoes and I could feel the sea salt breeze filling up my lungs and engulfing my body in a calming blanket of serenity. I slowed down to a lesierly walk through the moutains of sand. I wasn't looking at what was around me but I saw Annabeth out of the corner of my eye talking to someone. And as I passed by the silent air was interrupted with a blisteringly angry voice shouting my name.
"MEDA!" I slowly inched my neck to look toward the Voice, and I noticed that first thing Annabeth was talking to someone in the mist, but secondly and the most important, I realized who she was talking to. I paled and squeked out a single sentence.
"Hi...Percy..."
