chap 36 propose to relax??

" Your right that is more important." silena says as she stands up " Yea I still find this stupid oh well lets get back." I sigh as I stand and we walk back as we walk back " Do you think percy can find it?" I nod " I know he will baby." I say as we exit the woods to see four cabins locked in a full on brawl we chirion trying to break it up. I just sigh and walk over while summoning a bolt of lightning to land in the middle of the fight stopping it instantly. " What the hell happened here?" I ask as everyone starts yelling apparently someone stole something from each cabin " Ok you all zip it there is a war brewing and your wanting to act like spoiled brats." I snarl as I look at each camper " As much as I encourage you to train do it with your own cabin unless you ask the others first I don't give a rats ass what was stolen."

The campers look at me then back at each other " I geuss we will let you get away with it this time." each counselor says before they march off in different direction " Chirion I don't think I be a good idea for another game of capture the flag for awhile." he nods " I couldn't argee more but let the two of us talk." I nod as we walk towards the big house while silena runs off to find her cabin " What is it Chirion?" " Let me ask the same question you asked young Malcom who do you think gains from the gods destruction?" I nod as we walk in the living room " If you want my opinion I believe it might be the titans." He goes pale as he lowers himself in his wheelchair " You believe they might return?" I nod " yes if you ask me its a plan worthy of Athena make your enemy fight themselves, weaken them while you prepare your forces, and then fight them on your terms for a easy victory." He nods " Your being awful calm about this." I shake my head " Believe me I'm freaking the fuck out but I can't show it as silena said everyone looks to me even if they don't want to admit it." he smiles and chuckles.

" You remind me of many heros Zachary." I raise my eyebrow "How so?" He laughs " You train and fight as hard as Achilles, you have the brains of Odysseus, and you seem to possess the courage of heracles. It's like most of the heros of old come together to make you." I shake my head " If I was then I would do everything to stop this war but I don't want to be the one to stick out, If the time comes where I have to step into the limelight then it will be on my terms or for the defense of our home." Chirion smiles warmly and nods " You are one of the best students i have seen but you seem to struggle with yourself at times." I nod as the horn blows for lunch I Stand up and look at him " Everyone is on edge if I may make a announcement i have a idea." Chirion nods as we both make our way to the pavilion.

After eating i stand up " Campers hold up for a moment I got something I want to say!" I yell as everyone sits back down i walk up to the front of the pavilion " We have been training harder the past few weeks so I think everyone has earned some relaxing time i want all of you to take the evening to relax let your bodies heal to adjust to the amount of work you put on it. Take this time to deepen friendships or just relax you won't be able to fight at your best if you are constantly tired or sore. Yes pushing your limits is great trust me I can't get enough but I only realized how important it is to rest it will give your body time to adjust to its new limit then then next day strive to break it again." I holler as I pace along infront of the head table as chirion strokes his beautiful beard " The more tired we are the weaker we are lets take this time to rest and recover." I say as I stop facing the camper who are nodding but out of the corner of my eye I see luke with a snarl on his face " Why should we listen to you!" He yells as some campers start mulling the idea over.

I turn to look at luke with a glare" Know this luke I'm not forcing anyone to stop training but you can't train if you work yourself dead that might be well and good for you but not for some for example one person might want to sit down and read a book while some else might like to lay out in the sun and take a nap or tend to the strawberries." I answer back at him as the campers nod and at this point chirion stands forward " Mr Bradley has a point infact it sounds like some advice I gave Achilles the boy loved to train but once he relaxed some and let his training settle he could train longer." He says as the camp agrees as each cabin begins to plan their relaxation." That's all folks if you need me find your counselors first." I say as I walk out the pavilion and toward my cabin.
