They go into the music room in silance and Austin is there playing his saxaphone.

Apollo grabs a lyre and starts to play with him. Austin looks at him and continues to play. And Apollo still seems to be good at it. Like last time as a mortal though he gets a little tired but he still has it wich is all that matters.

When the song is done everyone seems to be in a bit better of a mood. "Well it seems like you still have your talent." Austin says setting his instrument down.

Him and Austin play a little more while Kayla and Will talk quitely were he can not hear them.

When its time to go to lunch he feels his kids watching him closely. Then he sees Chiron talking to Dionysus who waves him over.

"Hello Apollo. Or should i say Mr. A." He says as Apollo goes up to him.

"I rather not play your game Dionysus." Apollo says rolling his eyes.

"You should be thanking me. It was my idea for dad to send you here." He tells him.

"Your idea?"

"Yes. Dads been wanting to figure out a fit punishment for you breaking his rule of gods getting close to there kids. Of course you made him angry and had him set his plan in action a little to soon." Dionysus shrugs. "I mentioned you being sent here to lead camp in my place."

"And your going to do what?" Apollo asks glad hes not going to have to deal with him for a little while.

"Well i watch you for a bit see if you can do this without screwing it up." He laughs. "Im sure you will though."

"Mr. D." Chiron says in a scolding tone.

"Oh come on Chiron. We know hes not responsible or smart enough to run a camp. Even Zeus said so."

Apollo flinches a little and looks down. "Ill prove you wrong. Ive raised my kids before how hard can it be to run a camp."

"Sure you will. Run along now Mr. A."

Apollo glares at him taking a few steps to go to the dining pavilion but instead turns to go to the cabin area.

Apollo walks into the cabin slamming the door shut. He clinches his fist and feels his hand warm up. He looks down and sees fire. "So I do have fire." He mumbles and shakes away the flames. Why did I keep my powers this time around?

(AN - Small trigger warnjng for refrance to self harm.)

Apollo falls onto the bed. Zeus thinks im going to mess things up. Dionysus even said they all think im stupid. I just wanted to be happy. Im not happy as a god. Not fully happy here... i just need to distract myself. Feel somthing else... Apollo looks around his eyes landing on a knife.

End TW

Apollo walks out of the camp store wearing a light jacket.

"There you are." Kayla says walking up to him with Austin. "You didnt show up for lunch."

"Oh, Dionysus was telling me that hes going to train me to be the new camp counselor so i was doing some stuff for that."

"And you getting a jacket in summer is for?" Austin adds confused.

"Aesthetic?" Apollo says shrugging.

His kids hesitantly accept the answer though they dont seem to belive him. "Well would you like to climb the wall."

"Um. Sure." Apollo mumbles and follows them pretty sure he is going to get hurt. Or die.

When they get to it his kids start to climb leaving him to struggle. He only gets a little burned but maneges to make it with only a little bit of whinning.

"Are you okay?" Austin asks looking at the burns.

"Yeah ill be fine." Apollo says and starts the climb down his kids following close behind.

They go back to the cabin and Apollo heals the burns.

"Im sorry you got hurt." Kayla says.

"Im fine." Apollo says and smiles at her. "I enjoy doing stuff with you guys."

Austin and Kayla go to hang out wjth there friends leaving Apollo to rest since he is not used to the energy of a human.

He decides to Iris message Meg.

Meg looks at him. "Whay happened? Why do you look like Lester?"

"Dear old dad turned me mortal again."

She laughs at him. "Are you going to do a quest again?"

Apollo shrugs. "I think he just wants me to take over Dionysus position of leading the camp."

"That sucks."

"Rather do that so I can see my children and like. Not die."

"What is he punishing you for?"

"Wanting to see my children... and. Having a crush on Percy."

Meg frowns a little. "Thats stupid."

Apollo nods. "It is."

"Ill be going to camp half blood next week. So is the roman camp Piper Jason Leo and Calipso. I guess Chiron js trying to organizing a capture the flag game. I think they even mentioned the hunters may be there... and Percy."

Apollo grins. "Well itll be nice to see you and my sister."

"Well I'll see you then Lester." She says teasingly.

"Oh back to that name now?"

She smiles. "Well if you look like a Lester then thats who youll be. Bye."

Apollo pouys. "Ill see you later my little stop light."

She sticks her tongue out at him and cuts the connection.

Apollo stares at the wall frowninh a little. He'll need to face Percy Jackson.

Slight triggar warning

He wont even like you if you could talk to him. If even the gods look down on you how could a demigod whos as close to a god as one could be look at you like your perfect. You flirted with him after he broke up with Annabeth and he ignored your advances. What would make it any more diffeent.

Apollo glances at the blade thinking about distracting himself again.
