Raised Roman {Luke Castellan Fanfiction}

|III|

Sienna was sitting on the edge of one of the benches at the Demeter table as she tried to get as far away from other Demeter kids as she could, preferring to eat alone and ignoring every one of the other kids at her table.

Sienna dropped her head slightly, so that she was looking at her plate, and she pushed her brisket around on her plate and she had only eaten a few bites of the other things that lay on her plate.

"Are you gonna eat that?" She heard another voice behind her and she said nothing in response, and she shrugs at the person.

She was pretty happy to give it to whoever it was... at least until she felt hands on the back of her head as her head hit the plate. Her head promptly getting covered in mashed potatoes, brisket, and a lot of lemon juice.

Sienna spat mashed potatoes out of her mouth and turned her head to see a bunch of people laughing at her and the girl who had shoved her face into the mashed potatoes was laughing the hardest of all.

The Hermes kids were looking up now, as they looked interested in the fight that was beginnin' to brew in the middle of the Dining Pavilion.

"Clarisse... maybe you shouldn't, never mind." One of the Stoll brothers was saying, and fell silent, once one of the fearsome glares got turned to him, and the Hermes table in general.

Sienna stood up and a very small tremor had gone through the crowd and Clarisse scoffed. "Is that the best that you can do, you little pussy?" She asked and Sienna's eyes were lit up in a fierce rage.

Her eyes were grass green already and now, it just looked like there were green flames in her eyes, that blazed a lot, the more that her anger rose up to the surface.

"Clarisse, stop it. She's been unconscious for a week, just leave her be, will you?" An older guy from the table that Sienna guessed was Athena, he stood up to shout at Clarisse.

"Shove it to Hades, Jamerson! This little kid needs to be taught a lesson and it should be now." Clarisse was so busy shoutin' at Jamerson, that unfortunately for her, she had no time at all to react to the sudden offensive maneuver from Sienna.

"Don't call me a kid." Sienna growled and Clarisse turned to her, as a bunch of vines were creeping up around the Dining Pavilion, but no one noticed at first.

"You're a kid and a little pusy. A brat and a freak. You have a tattoo and you are what, fifteen?" Clarisse spat as she pushed her hard with both hands, and sent Sienna into the Demeter table. As the 'oohs' began to echo all 'round the Dining Pavilion and Clarisse made her second mistake and went in closer for another push.

The vines grabbed her from behind and she shouted in outrage, as every demigod was scrambling to get out of the way.

"Don't call me names." Sienna's voice was dangerously quiet and she stands up, as her eyes glowed brighter.

Clarisse was struggling to get out of the vines' grip and she looked like she was ready to commit murder. "Holy Hades." One of the other Ares kids in the area was in shock and Clarisse had managed to get out of the vines by her own power, as Sienna had turned back to her own food.

"Hey, you little freak!" Clarisse snapped and a sword stabbed down toward Sienna's head from behind.

The sword stopped with a thud and everyone was shocked, and Sienna's head was covered with an oak wood helmet, that was growing thicker, and Clarisse had begun to curse loudly.

Sienna stands up and she was wearing a full set of wooden armor. It was a blend of oak, pine, all sorts of wood types really. Vines crept all over it, in order to keep it together and she pulled off her helmet, and the sword hit the stone bench with a loud and a bit of a hollow clang.

She stood up and Clarisse looked completely dumbfounded, as another tremor went through the earth like it was butter, trembling all around them and movin', toward Clarisse like it had a mind of its very own.

Clarrise was chased from the Dining Pavilion, and the grass rose up to trip her, as she ran off towards Cabin Five.

The rest of the Ares Cabin went to charge at Sienna, but the Demeter and Hermes' Cabins rose up quickly to stand around her. Athena followed and Ares backed down, as they race after their fellow bully.

Sienna exhaled heavily, and she let her armor fade away now, as all the vines withdrew from their Dining Pavilion, except for the ones that were already on the Dionysus table and the Demeter one as well.

"Not many people can take on one of the main bullies of the Ares Cabin... so how, did you do it?" Conner Stoll asks and she looked at him, as weapons all were sheathed and put away.

"I'm the daughter of Ceres." She said and Conner raised his eyebrows.

"Your mom is named Cereal?" He questioned of her, as Luke was now stifling laughter from his place behind Conner.

"My mother is Ceres, the goddess of plants and the earth." Sienna said and she was still sounding somewhat polite now, but it was getting steadily harder for her to keep the act up.

"So... then, she is the goddess of cereal?" Luke asked, finally managing to suppress his laughter for just barely long enough in order to talk just a little bit.

"Shut up." Sienna said with a roll of her eyes, as she picks up a steak knife and twirls it in her hand. Before she'd throw it hard into the nearest pillar of the Dining Pavilion and it stuck there, as she walks away from them all.
