Jace watched as campers were singing and dancing by the fire.
He didn't really participate in the singing but the others didn't try to force him to which he appreciated. Jace turned to look at the pretty girl as she joined in and sat down.
Chiron walked into view and almost immediately people turned to look at him, though there were a few people who hadn't heard the centaurs' hooves hit the ground and kept singing. It took for Chiron to clear his throat and bang his hoof on the wood harder for the singing campers to stop.
Chiron lifted up a spear that had toasted marshmallows impaled into it. Jace wasn't really a fan of marshmallows and he knew horses could only eat marshmallows in moderation, so maybe centaurs were an exception?
Chiron soon spoke up when he was sure all attention was on him and no one was talking with their friends.
"Very nice! And I would like to welcome our three new campers! I am Chiron, your camp activities director, and I am happy that all of you are alive and have most of your limbs in place! We will get to the s'mores but first-"
"What about capture the flag?" Someone from the Ares cabin yelled out, it was soon followed by banging on the tables and some following questions about it. Jace didn't really care about it, sure he enjoyed capture the flag, but only when his team won. And it wasn't often due to the fact that Chiron didn't allow him to use his gun during it (party pooper).
"Yes," Chiron said. "I know the Ares cabin is anxious to return to the woods for the games."
"And kill people!" Yelled out someone, Which in Jace's opinion, was a stupid thing to say if you wanted the new campers to not be afraid of the games.
"However!" Chiron shouted over the yelling of the campers, "Until the dragon is brought under control, we cannot enter the woods safely. Cabin nine, any news on the situation?"
All eyes turned to look at the Hephaestus kids and Jace saw Leo wink at him when he saw Jace looking at him. "We're working on it."
There were sounds of disagreements in the crowd at the vague response of Nyssa.
"How, Nyssa?" Someone demanded.
"Really hard." Nyssa responded back before looking back down at her empty plate. The campers started yelling once again at the response, some calling out insults and some questioning the situation even more which caused the fire to splutter wildly (it was affected by the mood of the campers).
Chiron banged his hoof on the ground to get the campers attention-Bang, Bang, Bang-and the camp fell silent.
"We will have to be patient," he said. "But we have more pressing matters at hand."
"Percy?" Someone asked and all eyes turned to look at Annabeth, waiting for her to give out an update. She took in a deep breath and stood up.
"I couldn't find Percy," She announced (no shit do you see him around here?). Her voice caught in the back of her throat at the mention of his name. "He wasn't at the canyon like I hoped, but we have teams looking for him all around. Grover, Tyson, The hunters of Artemis, Nico-everyone is looking for him and we will find him. Chiron's talking about something different though. A new quest."
"It's the Great Prophecy isn't it?" a girl called out. Everyone turned. The voice had come out from the table that had a rose coloured banner on top of it with a dove emblem on it.
They had been whispering amongst themselves until their leader: Drew, stood up. Everyone was surprised as Drew didn't address the crowd very often.
"Drew? What do you mean?" Annabeth asked.
