chap 10 Meeting

" Chirion they should be in soon right?" I ask as we walk in the big house and sit down " He nods Yes I just don't know how close." he says as a sandy blonde hair boy runs in carrying a girl and a satyr " She needs help!" feeling my blood run cold i charge out the door grabbing a shield and bringing my spear out and sprints up the hill as a bolt of lightning strikes knocking me down as I pick myself up I sprint up to see a pine tree growing and covering a girl as it grew. "NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOO!" I scream as summon a bolt of lightning and vaporize the three bat like creatures as I throw my spear through to hellhounds before running and sliding under a third and bash my shield in a fourths face vaulting over it and grabs my spear before killing the last two before walking up to the base of the pine tree and falls on my knees as chirion come galloping up " Zak where is she i heard you scream!" I reach forward and grab what was her hand " R-R-Right here." I say say tears start falling chirion places his hand on my shoulder " She was brave to sacrifice herself." I nod " This underground was to late to save her but not the next demigod." I say as I wipe my tears away "Come on lets talk to the two others." Chirion says as we walk back to the big house to find the two demigods sitting in on the couch.

" Thaila is she..?" the girl asks just look down and shake my head and she starts crying and the boy looks guilty " What are your names?" I say trying to keep my voice steady " I'm luke castellan son of Hermes this is Annabeth chase. Who are you?" I wipe my eyes " I'm zak Bradley son of Zeus." luke goes pale and Annabeth looks up at me " Luke why do you look so pale?" I ask as he shakes his head as Annabeth looks at him " But didn't you with to prove yourself Against the monsters?" I glare at luke who swallow some spit " You have two days to get settled then meet me in the arena." He nods as chirion clears his throat " Zak you're scaring the boy." I sigh " Sorry about i had my hope up that I would finally have family that wouldn't hurt me. Come on I'll show you around." I say as I close my spear and put it in my pocket and sling the side on my back.

The three of us walk past the pavilion as I explain what all happens in the camp and pointing out the training areas and the stables as we come to the amphitheater "And here is the amphitheater where we have our campfires." I look down and can't spot hestia but I still wave " Ok are we ready?" they nod as we walk towards the cabins " Each one of these cabins is a Olympic God but only two of them are more honorary than lived in and that is cabin two and cabin 8." I explain as we walk towards Hermes " why is that?" luke asks but before I answer Annabeth pipes up " I guess two is hera and she won't have children with anyone but zeus and the other has to be Artemis since she swore to be a madien." I nod and chuckle " Your right on the money tell you what Annabeth lets make a bet." She raises a eyebrow at what I said " Depends on what we are betting on." I chuckle " Anyway luke this is your cabin Phill will take care of you. Ah speak of the devil Phill this is luke a son of Hermes." Phill laughs " Finally someone claimed welcome to cabin eleven we'll steal you some stuff later."

I shake my head and turn to Annabeth only to see a sliver old floating over her head " And one to Athena trey will be happy." I motion for her to follow which she does " Now about this bet if you win I'll give you something rare and if I win you owe me something." She nods as we walk " Ok then answer this riddle and you win ready?" she nod with a smile " What disappears as soon as you say its name?" I ask as we stop in front of my cabin. She smiles " Silence." I sigh " Wait here." I walk in my cabin and grabs one of the interspatial rings from my nightstand and walk back over to her " Here this is a interspatial ring you can use it to store books weapons and gear."

I explain how to works as we walk towards the athena cabin and I knock on the frame a girl walks out " Hey Sam is trey in?" I ask " Oh zak what brings you here and I believe so." I Shrug" Just dropping your new sister off." I wave as I walk back to the big house only to see chirion and Grover walking towards me " Ah you must be Grover?" he nods " Zak I'm sorry about Thaila I fail my mission." I sigh and place my hand on his shoulder " Look g-man I'm not mad at you you did your best you couldn't make that choice she did if anything I blame myself for not being fast enough." He sniffles " Besides Grover I have a feeling that you will find and protect the demigod that will help you with your personal mission." I say as look up at the Thaila's tree " From now one we have to be careful."
