Project cosmos: The Golden Ring

I Get Covered in Glitter

As Siv was waiting, glitter sprayed out of the light. It covered every inch of me.
"Your godly parent is... IVORY! Goddess of magic!" Siv said.
"Magic?" I asked, with an excited tone in my voice. I like magic.
"You'll now be staying in Cabin 14!"
"YES!" I hear a voice in the distance, somewhere in the crowd.
A girl came running to me, then grabbed my arm and dragged me off to Cabin 14.
The cabin was much larger than the one I was in before. The walls were silver, and the floor was white. It looked like magic.
"What do you think?" the girl asked.
"I absolutely LOVE it!" I said.
I could easily tell she was very excited.
"I can't wait to get to know you! You know, we're kinda like half-sisters now!" she said.
"And yet I don't even know your name..." I said.
"Well then! My name is Ivy Wells!" she said cheerfully.

MEANWHILE...
Latona was still sitting on the ground, having a mental break down. Mark and Travis were trying to calm her down but were failing.
"Come on, Latona! Calm down!" Travis said.
"Please. You're making a scene..." Mark complained.
Then out of nowhere, I appeared behind her.
"Latona? I swear, if you don't calm down, I'll slap you!" I said.
She was finally calm again.
Later, all the campers were once again gathered at the fire. Siv was standing on a log, dressed in battle armor.
I was very confused. I still thought this was a summer camp.
"CAMPERS! WELCOME TO OUR MONTHLY GAME OF CAPTURE THE FLAG!" Siv yelled. The campers cheered
Capture the flag? What's so exciting about that? I've played that game hundreds of times. Then I heard the rules...
"Don't forget the rules! All magic items and weapons ARE allowed! No killing! The first team to grab their opponents' flag and bring it to me wins! Good luck!" Siv yelled.
I turned to Ivy. What did she mean, no killing?
Ivy handed me a sword. It was silver, just like the walls in our cabin.
"You'll need this..." she said.
I took the sword and held it at my side. I wasn't ready for whatever was coming next.
Siv announced the teams. The Guest Cabin, that's where my friends were, we're on a team with the even-numbered cabins. I had to remember what cabin number I was in. Cabin 14! Latona, Mark, and Travis were on a team with me! So was Ivy. The other team, let's just say they looked very intimidating. The leaders of that team were Cabin 21. The demigods in that cabin were children of Tyrus. The god of chaos. Now I really wasn't ready. The leaders of our team were from Cabin 32. The children of Halona. The goddess of luck. Now we had a better chance of winning.
It was an hour later. Ivy was telling me about the game. She told me about how the odd cabins usually were pretty violent, but that I shouldn't worry. She explained that the two of us would most likely have to guard the flag. I felt more ready now.
The forest was wet and dark. The game had just begun. The campers in Cabin 32 told me to help get the flag, instead of guard with Ivy. Latona was with me. I was supposed to protect her since she hasn't been claimed yet. I was fine with this. I enjoyed being around her. She was my best friend, after all.
The flag was in sight. It was bright green. I climbed up the tree it was in, but fell to the ground as something hit my leg. It was a small throwing knife.
"ISABELLE!" Latona screamed as I fell. She ran over to me to see what hit me. She ripped the knife out of my leg. Then, the wound closed. It disappeared...
"H...how did you do that?" I said in confusion and surprise.
"I don't know..." she said.
Siv jumped out from the trees and right in front of Latona.
"Latona, you have been claimed!" Siv shouted as she ran out to us.
"By who?" I asked. Since I had just been claimed, I'm curious to see who would claim my friends.
"Chayla, the goddess of life! That means you'll be staying in Cabin 10 from now on," Siv explained.
I decided to climb up the tree again. This time, I managed to grab the flag before I fell, and it came down with me.
The flag was bright blue, and it almost seemed to glow. It shimmered in the sunlight. I got up and grabbed Latona. We bolted in the direction of our base. Then, the campers from Cabin 21 stopped us. He had a sword in his hand. Then I remembered the sword strapped to my back and pulled it out. As I held it in front of me, It lit on fire. Blue fire. I pointed it at the boy, and he stepped back. He knew more about this weapon than I did. That worried me. What if I really hurt him, or even killed him? I hesitated.
"Let us through," I told him, trying to sound confident. He stepped to the side. He was scared. So, Latona and I ran off, heading to the base.
When we got there, the rest of our team was fighting off most of Cabin 21. They were losing. I threw the flag to Latona and ran into the battle. I suddenly felt as if I knew exactly what I was doing.
I saw heads turn as I ran. Their eyes were filled with fear. My arm moved all on its own. It swung the sword at the campers, who... disappeared. They were gone. Back to their base. I like this sword.
Then Latona ran up behind me, waving the flag around. The campers from our team cheered. Siv was waiting there as if she had teleported there. She congratulated our team for winning, then gave us the prize. Each of us got three golden coins. She called them Medarion.
