The Lightning Thief (Argo/hbh's Version)

Finale! (no not of the ff it's way too early for that hehe)

Chris B's POV:

How long have I been at camp now? A couple of days. Both Sara and Kaija have been claimed since the day we arrived. I'm still not on that list. I've found a lot of comfort in my counselor, Luke, reminding me i'm not the only one. Some of us haven't been claimed for months. It made me feel.. better. But also different. A different opinion.

Why do the gods take so long to claim their children while others are claimed at the moment of arrival? Are the gods even that.. good? Are they the good guys? What's been told to us since day 1 of being a demigod?

Or are they the villains in disguise? 

Luke has shown me what he thinks about it. I don't know exactly what he's going to do, but it sounded sinister. He wanted to give us a choice instead of having to be chosen. He sounded so good, so convincing.. 

Luke told me that if I was going to follow him, I could find friends who think the same. Friends that won't stare at me and think: "Oh that's the unclaimed one from the Alaska quest." No, they'd think: "That's Chris." 

Luke's companion.

Sara's POV:

Nicola has told me the infirmary usually isn't as full as it was now. The amount of fights breaking out at camp, training sessions taken too seriously and arguments going a bit too personal was not what I thought camp would be like. Yet it was. 

I barely had any time for myself, being a healer I had to almost constantly be in the infirmary. Lee, my head counselor obviously took the most shifts, trying to save us from being stuck there, to the point Jasper scolded him for it. 

The next morning I got woken up by Linc. "Today's the finale! I'm in it!" 

"It's in the evening!" Nicola yelled. "Why do you have to wake us up now?" Linc shrugged. "I dunno." Nicola's reaction? A pillow from him flying at an inhumane speed with inhumane accuracy straight in Linc's face.  "It's time  to save our siblings from the infirmary anyways. Who's turn is it?" Linc said after recovering. He threw the pillow back but the 11 year old dodged it. 

"My turn." I said. "And.. Michael. ." I said. I got up from my bunk and stretched. It was 6:45 so not even that early to wake up. For me at least. I shivered a bit, thinking back about my life from before I got found and lost in Alaska and all of that. 

A/N: I'm redirecting you to Sara's fic if you don't know and want to read more about that

After breakfast I headed to the infirmary with Michael. Lee and Will in their turn left the place, and I prepared myself for a nice, stress-giving morning. At least Lincoln's game was something I could look forward to, I guess. 

Luke's POV:

Every. Single. Night. 

I mean, seriously, why can't Kronos give me just one night without nightmares? Yes, I can't mess up. Yes, I know my sister's life is on the line. But giving me all this shit isn't helping! I hoped that trying to recruit new people was going to satisfy Kronos just a bit. That Chris girl, the unclaimed one from the Alaska quest, she'd make a good ally. Insecure, seemed to show disapproval of the claiming system, hated to be unknown because she wasn't claimed, all of that. Over the days I talked to her, and I'm not lying when I say it was pretty obvious she was developing a crush on me. As long as Ella won't find out she'll be fine.

I hope. 

The worst part is Bea has already disappeared from camp. I didn't know where they are, I didn't know if Kronos has them and I didn't know if they're maybe already dead.
