I have been spending a lot of my time in the demigod camp. I had quit my job and started taking my godly duties more seriously. My cabin was finally finished and it stood in the middle of the whole cabin. It was even bigger than that Zeus cabin, which made me smile. Today was like any normal day here at the camp. All the demigods were either training for horse-playing. Seeing them having fun made me smile. In this place, they can at least live a normal life. 

"So Goddess what do you want to know about the camp," Chiron said walking next to me. The smile on my face never left.

"Well Zeus gave me the whole forest to build the demigod city," I said looking at him now. He turned his head and looked at me surprised.

"He agreed?" He was so confused and I should know why. Zeus is a really hard guy to convince. 

"Yeah with the help of Apollo." I looked back at the roadway and continued walking. He changed the subject.

"So what are you planning to build in this city?" 

"Well, I'm planning to make it a normal city just with extra protections and training days of the course. In reality, I just want to be able to save them from the monsters we created many years ago." He nodded and decided to leave me alone and left to help some random demigods.

 I was walking around the small camp and saw that there were more demigods training than having fun. Maybe I could build an arcade so that they could at least have fun after training. I continue looking around so that I could get more ideas about what the demigods needed. But before I could do any of that I was hit in the head with a soccer ball. I turn around and see a small kid running towards me.

"I'm so sorry goddess, I didn't see you there" He apologized.

 He looked so scared and frightened. I looked at him closely and saw that there were bruises all over his body. Did this kid just arrive at the camp or something?

"When did you arrive, kid," I said looking at him. He shuffled and looked at the floor. 

"I got here a few months ago, ma'am". I looked up and saw that he was only playing with kids from the Ares' cabin. 

"Come on follow me. And no you are not in trouble I just want to talk to you" I said looking back down at him.

 He simply nodded his head and throw the ball at the kids he was playing with. I smiled at them and pushed the kid forward. he looked scared of me. I gave him a smile and continued walking behind a building so they won't hear what we are saying.

"Are you ok, kid?" I looked at him with a caring face and kneeled down so that I can see his face better. 

"I'm perfectly fine, goddess." I could clearly tell that he was lying. 

"What do those kids do to you?" I asked. I have to protect him. I just have to. 

He sighs and says, "I don't know what you mean". He was looking at his feet.

"I know they hurt you, so what are you going to say, kid." I felt bad for him. He came here to have a normal life and now he is being bullied and mistreated by his campmates. 

"I can't do anything about it goddess. They are the children of Ares. They are the bullies of the camp". I rolled my eyes and got up. The kid slowly followed behind me.

I didn't stop walking until I got to the middle of the camp. Once I was there I saw people gathering around, wanting to know what I was going to say. After the whole camp was there. I finally spoke.

"From this day on I will not see any of the demigods bullied or abused, If I hear anything. I would personally come and hurt you". Everyone turned their eyes to the kid. 

"You are here to survive and thrive from our help. You are not here to make other people's life worse. You all come here to escape the monster from behind the barrier". 

"That's all. You may all leave". I looked back at the kid and saw that he started crying. I kneeled to his level and wiped the tears away.

"It's ok kid, I'm here" I hugged him and he just burst into a crying fit. I frowned, poor kid people didn't care about him and now he is like this.

"What's your name and who's your godly parent?" I said pulling him up. He was wiping the tears away.

"My name is Luke, but I was never claimed by any god." He said looking at his feet. I smiled and caressed his face.

"Well, you do now. I Calypso goddess of demigods and heroes, take you Luke to be my son." 

He helped a smile and suddenly his body started changing, He still had his blonde hair, but now he had blue eyes. He looked like he was in so much pain but I couldn't do anything about it. I only way he can be my son is by rearranging his DNA to match mine. After a few minutes, people started surrounding us. They were confused because Luke was screaming in pain. After a minute he was no longer screaming, instead, he fell to the ground. Before he could I grabbed him. I stood up and he was sleeping in my arms.

"From this day on, Luke here is my son. He is the first son of the goddess Calypso". And with that, I started walking towards my cabin. 

Inside there was a giant living room, with a flat-screen tv on the right wall. On the right side of the room was a kitchen with everything inside of it. I walked further into the cabin and saw that there was a hallway next to the kitchen. I went inside and saw that they were all rooms. I opened the first room and saw that the whole room was covered in boy things. a basketball was on the floor. I smiled and laid him down on the bed. 

After searching the whole house I found out that the left side of the room was only for boys and the right side was the girl's rooms. I smiled, I'm so grateful that the demigods built this cabin. I decided that I was going to stay in the camp tonight. I want to be able to talk to Luke after he wakes up.
