Its been a few months since Chiron sent me back to camp. Percy should be arriving soon with Grover finally being handed his licence for getting him here. I'd tell Annabeth my theory but her obsession with the "one" is annoying. I hate prophecies, they take the people you care about away from you because the fates decided to do so. I said goodbye to Thalia and walked off to help Silena teach some of the younger Aphrodite children.

Somehow, Grover failed. Dude has a good nose but terrible luck. Did he piss off Tyche or something? Anyway, Annabeth looked after the dumbass out of the goodness of her heart. Ha, no she just wanted to confront him about him being the "one".

He eventually woke up and was introduced to Mr. D and told that the gods are real. Chiron brought him around for a tour while I followed not listening. He passed him onto Annabeth after awhile. She knocked on our cabin doors, Luke answered the door. Luke and I should be friends but I just felt off about him and it wasn't because I was jealous about something, like Annabeth claims. I shake my head in time to hear someone ask a question.

"Claimed or unclaimed?" Someone asked

Percy looked stumped at that question, like someone had the audacity to shit in your cereal.

"Unclaimed, like me" I told them as Annabeth pushed him in leading to laughs as he fell. They groaned in response to my answer.

"That's why our cabin is here, guys. Who better then the god of travellers to take in people?"
Luke asked his cabin.

'Our parents, Luke. That's who' I thought bitterly before smilling and nodding in agreement with Luke.

"How long will I be here?" Asked Percy. Couldn't blame the guy, I ask that same question to myself everyday. The cabin laughed at him though.

"Until you are claimed" stated Luke as if it was obvious, it was but not to someone new to this.

"How long will that take?" Percy questioned him impatiently. I was fed up with his questions by now as Annabeth and I dragged him away from the bitter laughs of the cabin. I spotted Clarisse and her sisters fighting each other so I walked over to them. Not bothered to deal with Pinky and the Brain.

"Clarisse, how's my favourite badass doing?" I asked her as I admired her muscles, respectfully.

"Just kicking some ass. You want in?" Clarisse stated while still beating one of her siblings in a fight.

"I'll just watch for now. Learn a few things from you," I said while sitting down to get comfortable for the show.

"Oh, i'm sure it's the fight you care about
Y/n, not Clarisse's muscles. Just the fight," Silena shouted at me from the other side of the fight. I flipped her off.

"Are you here for the fight or my muscles, loser?" Clarisse demanded from me as she dodged a punch. She sent a punch back and knocked her opponent out. She then pointed towards two people to get her opponent to the big house to treat the nasty wound. She then strode up to me with a grin and sweat dripping from her body.

"So, how about it Punk. Were you here for the fight or my muscles?" She asked while flexing to emphasise the question.

"Muscles, no doubt. The only good show around here," I said with no hesitation. What? I liked women who could kill me, sue me.

When I asked him that question, I thought he would be flustered and I could make fun of him for it. I did not expect the honesty, I could feel my face warm.

"Shut up, loser. Let's go welcome the newbie," I grumbled out before walking away, knowing he is going to follow.
