Camp Half Blood: The Tale Of Ariana, Daughter Of Hades

Chapter Two: Black And Blue

One Week Later:

I stood in the forest, sitting against a tree as I played with the leave's on the ground, I guess you could say i've done nothing since the game of capture the flag. I refuse to pick up a weapon, and has tried not to even be seen by other Demi God's.

I just, I don't get it.

Everyone seem's to hate my existence, my very being. And I haven't talked to anyone, besides Chiron (Mr. Smith). I wonder what I did to offend them? I wonder what it is that they hate about me...

"Ariana" I stood and looked at Chiron.

"Yes sir?"

"I have found you another protector, you shall met him now, before another game of capture the flag"

I nodded and followed him with my head bowed.

"James, this is Ariana, Ariana, this is your new protector"

I looked up and saw James smile, "Hello Ariana" "Hi" we shook hand's, "I see you two shall get along well, Ariana, get ready for the game, James will help you. The game shall start soon"

And with that, I was left alone with James.

Then suddenly, James' attitude changes, "Right, I am James, I will be training, and preparing you for battle, but let me help you understand this, Demi God, I won't be afraid to kill you" he growl's, what?!

"Wait, wha-" SLAP. He had back handed me and I fell to the ground in shock, I held my cheek and looked at him, wide eyed "You shall not speak to me like we are equal's, you are filth, daughter of Hades. You are lower and vermin to everyone here. It would be better if you are dead. But Chiron will not see what need's to be done, so, until then, your mine" he give's me a sick and twisted smile that made my insides cold.

"Get up, I need to make you presentable" he growl's, grabbing my red hair and yanking me to my feet, I yowled in pain, but that only resulted in him punching my stomach. I held my stomach as I slouched forward's in pain.

"You shall not speak, unless I tell you to. You will not tell aynone that I harm you, and you will not tell Chiron anything, you hear me?" he seeth's. I nod, and he give's me a disgusting smile, "Good"

Set me free, Ariana, Set. Me. Free.

I looked at James as he found armor, and told me to put it on, I shook my head, "Why not?!" he growl's.

"I won't need it"

He storm's forward, his hooves sounded like it should be in a horror film, He grabs my throat and squeezes, "Why not?"

"I won't be fighting"

He let's me go and punches me once more, "Fight"

"I can't!" I choked out as he pushed me back and hit me again.

"Fight"

"No"

He hit me again and again, telling me to put the armor on and fight, "I can't fight, I refuse to fight. But, I will be the person who scout's and spies on the enemy" I gasped, making up a plan to make him to stop hitting me.

He stop's, then grins "Fine. But, that mean's you won't have a weapon"

"I'm fine with that"

"Good, then go and hurry, remember, not to tell anyone" he let's me go and I quickly hurry away, oh my gosh.

Sebastian, please.. come back.

I ripped the flag off of the pole and climbed down the tree branch that was above it. I then walked all the way to base, before I got ambushed. I eyed the group of seven that have surrounded me, "Oh, look, Hades daughter"

"And she's stolen our flag" one sneered.

I stood there, not speaking, 'Ariana, touch the ground. Touch the ground' it whispered.

Instead of doing what the voice say's, I jumped up, flipping over two of the guy's before running, "SHE HAS THE FLAG, THE GAME IS WON!" Chiron boom's, but they don't stop. 

I keep running, why are they trying to hurt me?!

I was tackled to the ground and a dagger was pushed into my skin, instead of screaming in agony, I knee'd him and then flipped him over, it was taking over.

I couldn't feel the dagger that was embedded inside of my leg.

"You shall not harm her" my mouth hissed, my nail's started to become longer and dug into his skin, then I felt my resistance step up and I pulled it back, not wanting to hurt anyone. It screamed in anger in my mind and I threw myself backwards and into someone. I turned, only to be clocked in the jaw.

I fell to the ground and looked up to the demi god, before rolling out of the way of someone else, I was pinned to a tree and I felt it claw at my skin from inside of me, "Watch your back, filth" the girl hisses.

I flinched, "STOP!" Chiron boom's. Everyone and everything goes still, the girl keep's her glare focused on me, "Anita, step away from Hades Child" Chiron command's.

She does, "We need a medic" Chiron say's, no one move's to obey his order, which meant no one wanted to help me.

I looked down at my leg, before gripping the handle and pulled it out. Everyone watched, I looked up, before I span around threw it without a second thought. I heard a yelp and I looked over my shoulder and saw it embedded in a tree, just touching one of my attacker's face.

"Ariana-" before Chiron could continue, I took the flag and myself away, running threw the forest, funny, my foot steps barely make a sound, on light thud, nothing more, it's like i'm not really here, i'm a solid form, yes, but I don't have any wait or anything, like i'm a ghost.

"ARIANA!" I heard Chiron boom through the forest, but I didn't do anything beside's run. I sat on a flat rock next to a stream, before I put the other team's flag, tight around my leg.

"I'm sorry" I fell off the rock and stared up in shock, "W-who-?" but I say no one.

"... What the?" no one was around me, it hadn't been it that spoke to me just then, but what ever it was, or who it was, was gone.

~

"YOU" my eyes snapped open and I looked up, only to be smacked across the face, "YOU PIECE FILTH! YOU RUN OFF, MAKING ME LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT!" James growl's, before he hit me.

Hit after hit, I crumpled onto the ground with each painful blow, I hate him.

I hate him.

I hate them.

I hate everyone here.

I want my mom, and I want to go home.
