YAY I'm updating! So I don't own anything except the things you don't recognize.
Chapter 5
I stared in shock and I'm sure my jaw dropped too. My dad, Apollo, you've got to be kidding me. I thought as the lyre slowly started to disappear. Then, I realized that everyone was staring at me. I gave a small wave and thought I was going to pass out if it hadn't been for the Apollo cabin.
One of the boys decided to call out, "Hey! Aurora come down here and sing for us!"
WHAT! I screamed in my thoughts. I cannot sing. I'm not musical at all, but apparently all the Apollo kids could sing. Since the whole entire camp was watching I slowly walked down the aisle that they had made me. I walked slowly and stood straight, even though inside I was trembling in fear.
When I stood in front of the fire which had changed to a strange teal color I looked at one of the girls in the Apollo cabin, walked over to her and whispered, "I can't sing."
She looked at me shocked with a look that clearly said are you sure you're an Apollo kid. I nodded and shrugged. She looked up at Chiron and motioned for him to come here. When he came she whispered something, I'm sure she was talking about me.
Then a kid in the crowd shouted, "Sing already!" and started a chant, "Siii-ng, sii-ng, sii-ng!"
I'm sure I looked murderous, because that's how I felt. Suddenly Chiron motioned for a kid to start the sing- along again. He did, and the chanting stopped, and for that I was thankful.
When the sing along was done I followed the Apollo kids to the cabin. When we got closer to the cabin I noticed Percy looking at me. I walked over to him.
"Hi." I said. He didn't say anything just nodded and waved back.
"What are you thinking about." I asked.
"About how you are a daughter of Apollo even though you don't have the same personality." Annabeth said walking toward us, "right Percy. That is unless you're thinking about your mom's blue cookies." then like a spell was put on Percy he looked up and shouted.
"Blue cookies, where!" he got a lot of looks from the other cabin but wasn't commented on it. Whereas Annabeth laughed at his downcast expression when he finally realized that there were no blue cookies.
"Anyway, " I interrupted before Percy could kill Annabeth with his glare, " do you have any idea why I'm a daughter of Apollo?" I asked Annabeth. She shock her head. Percy looked surprised.
"Something Annabeth doesn't know! We should report it to the Genesis Book of World Records!" Percy shouted, I'm sure I looked confused because Annabeth said,
"I'm a daughter of Athena." I nodded in understanding.
Then a girl from Apollo Cabin came up to me, blushed when she saw Percy and pulled me away to my new cabin.
"What were you thinking walking off like that." I was scolded by the girl who dragged me away from Percy and Annabeth.
"I was thinking that I could make some friends." I told her. She looked at me quizzically.
"How old are you?" she asked me.
"Eleven." I answered.
"Percy and Annabeth aren't just three years older (Is that correct?) they're also the coolest kids in camp!" she shouted at me.
"Well, I don't care!" I shouted and stormed to the new bed I was given. I fell onto it and then suddenly I fell asleep.
One thing about this being my first night not being passed out, I didn't even notice any strange noises at all. That, or I fell asleep before the monsters and other animals actually started to make noise. Then I didn't have a dream at all, or I did I just can't remember it. Anyway I just didn't have the visions you sometimes get when you first get claimed.
That's not really important, just thought I'd mention it. So that morning I got up and went with my cabin to the training center to train. What else would we do?
"Ok troops!" Cornelia shouted, "Everyone needs to run ten laps around the lake." Everyone groaned, well except me. I love to run, so I was once again put out of my comfort zone when I let out a little, "Yay!" everyone turned to me. I quickly ran to the lake and started to run.
Needless to say I was the first to finish and started shooting. I picked up a bow and arrows. The bow felt a little off balance but I still was able to make ten bulls-eyes out of twelve. When I was done I saw Annabeth staring at me. I walked over. to her.
"Hi." I greeted. She waved back.
"What are you thinking about?" I asked her.
"I thinking that I want to make an alliance with the Apollo cabin for you to be on my team for capture the flag
." she told me. I must of looked confused because she told me that it was just a game that they played, and that she'd explain later.
"So how do you like camp so far?" Annabeth asked me after an awkward pause.
"Um. Not really any privacy." I answered. Annabeth nodded, still looking a little distracted.
"Ok, well nice talking to you but I have to go train." Annabeth said. I nodded and went back to my cabin.
"Talking to Annabeth again, I see." Katie told me. I nodded and picked up a bow and some arrows and started to shoot.
"After I strictly told you not to." she told me in a cracked, high-pitched voice. Again, I nodded, not answering.
"Well Aurora, you just might have to be watchful of what ends up in your bed tonight." she told me.
"Thanks for telling me your plan Katie." I told her finally speaking. She looked shocked then angry.
"Well Aurora you just made an enemy, and I'm not someone you want for an enemy. I have some pretty rough friends."
"What's your problem Katie!" I finally snapped, if she was going to be so rude I could take that, but being a full blown jerk. No way, I don't know what led me to say it but I did,
"You're just jealous. Jealous that I'm friends with Annabeth and Percy and you're not! You know what if you're going to be a jerk about it then fine, but don't come crying to me if you don't have any friends." then suddenly the room brighten like a piece of the sun fell into the room and formed a bow and arrow.
Then with a blink of an eye and a loud PING the string hurled the arrow through the air and the arrow landed right in front of Katie. She stood there for a few moments stunned then quickly dashed out of the room. It was then that I noticed that my little argument with Katie had caused the whole room to stare at me in amazement. Annabeth quickly ran up grabbed me by the upper arm and dragged me out of the room.
So how was this chapter? Tell me in a review.
