Lost Dreams; A Percy Jackson Fan Fiction (Never Gonna Finish)

Chapter Three 🛡

     "G...gods?" I stuttered.
     "Yes Kayla, the Greek Gods of Olympus still exist today. Yes, their aspects have changed some throughout history. The Romans adapted the Greek Gods to fit their own needs. The gods can have children in their different aspects so we have Camp Halfblood and then we have the Roman camp, Camp Jupiter." Chiron said like this was all just normal. "We are mainly just going to inform you about the Greek Gods. We have classes on the Roman Gods, Mythology, and Latin. If you want to take them."
     "Gods?" I ask again.
     "Brody will tell you about all of the gods when he shows you the cabins." Chiron explained. "In the past two years have there been any glowing symbols that have appeared over your head?" Chiron asked.
     "No, why?" I reply.
     "The gods are supposed to claim their kids by age thirteen. Thanks to Percy Jackson. Usually demigods are found and brought here at about age twelve, but I just found you this year so we had to make sure you were a demigod. All of the unclaimed campers bunk in cabin eleven. Connor will show you everyone in the cabin, just watch out for pranks." Brody explained.
     "Well let's go then, if that's alright with you Chiron. I want to know who my dad is." I ask.
     "Yes, you may go now. You will most likely be claimed at the camp fire tonight." Chiron replied.
     "Come on Kayla!" Brody called already holding the door open.
     We run out the door and Brody shows me all twenty cabins. They were all arranged in an upside down U shape. I recognized some of the names Brody spouted out, like Zues, Posiedon, and Hades. But I had no idea who the others were. That is, until Brody told me. We walked past all of the cabins and then we backtracked to cabin eleven.
     "So here we go, cabin eleven, Hermes cabin." Brody said spreading his arms. A boy walked out the door and up to Brody and I.
     "Hey, you're Kayla right? Chiron told me we'd have a new camper. Hey, I'm Connor Stoll." Connor said holding out his hand.
     "I...I'm Rayla Keed, uh, I mean Kayla Reed." I stuttered.
     He was so cute. His curly brown hair, his green eyes, the little splash of freckles on his nose. My legs felt like jell-o.
     "Well hello Kayla, welcome to Hermes cabin." He laughed, putting his hand down when I didn't shake it. "We actually have a bunk open, my older brother Travis left for New Rome to go to college. Now I'm the head counselor." Connor explained.
     When he talked about Travis he looked so sad. I could tell they had been through a lot, he obviously missed his brother.
     "Well come on in." Connor said.
     We walked inside, all of the bunks were messy except for one bunk in the corner.
     "Here we go, this was Travis's old bed. Oh sorry, Travis left this." Connor  quickly grabbed a sock off the bottom bunk. "I sleep on the top bunk, hope you don't mind."
     Oh I didn't mind. I was actually very happy to be sharing a bunk with Connor.
