"Ria!" Yelled Angelos, racing towards her girlfriend's side. I felt the color drain out of my face. This must've been Her doing.
All the while, the campers were in an uproar, everyone screaming and questioning the gods. It was like a Kelaxian mosh pit--and trust me, you do not want to be at the center of one of those.
The army commanders rushed towards Asteria's crumpled figure while the Olympians dealt with the camp. Chiron galloped up to us with a grave expression. I met eyes with Neos, and we stood to converse with the centaur.
"I assume you are the army Chaos has promised to send?"
Neos nodded. "I am Colonel Commander Neos, primary commander of the Chaos Army. This is Lieutenant Colonel Commander Sothike, secondary commander of the Chaos Army." I bowed my head in recognition.
Chiron smiled sadly. "I'm afraid we are in dire need of your help. Cursed attacks have been happening frequently, an unknown enemy somehow finding their way into camp and harming random, innocent campers. We do not believe the attacks are coordinated, but there is always the possibility of an error." A thud was heard from somewhere close, and a bloodied camper skidded to a stop in the mud between our feet. Chiron winced. "I believe I have to go calm down the masses. Again, thank you for your service, we will forever be in your debt." He galloped off to direct the campers, but not before yelling one last thought.
"Oh, and feel free to make yourselves at home in the cabin of your godly parent, if you have one. There is also an empty space between the Athena cabin and the arena if you'd like to set up your own camp."
"Chaos Army, regroup! We have important matters to discuss in our cabin." The army commanders ran towards us, Asteria being carried by Angelos and Peristeri, but were quickly stopped by Piper.
"Who are you guys?" She questioned accusingly, raising an eyebrow.
"We are the Chaos soldiers," Neos responded, rather icily. I grabbed his hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze. "And who might you be?"
Piper definitely noticed my holding Neos' hand, and definitely took note, being the Aphrodite child she is. I blushed under my mask, and she seemed to know that too.
"I am Piper Mclean, one of the six leaders of Camp. As a protector of the campers and upholder of the Olympians' legacy, I demand to know what you are doing here and your identities at once."
Didymo stepped up and put his arm out in front of us. "I'll tell you what; we don't have the time or the energy to explain all this fifteen thousand times, so if you can call a meeting with all the leaders and the counselors and important people, we'll explain it all there and you guys can tell the campers what's happening. Deal?"
Piper smiled and nodded. "Deal."
A/N ~ I want to say a very special thank you to one of my best friends who helped inspire me to write this. I know I haven't been very active, I've been incredibly busy what with taking high-school level classes at thirteen years old and trying out for musicals and doing tons of sports and outside of school activities, but that's no excuse. I'm incredibly sorry for not being active, but right now I'm in a writing mood, so I'm going to try to write as much and publish as many chapters as I can. This is all thanks to one person: DariaWritingAccount. Daria has recently become one of my close friends and her encouraging me to update has led to this, which I've been working for the past two days. I hope to update a lot more often and get this story started up again. Please go follow Daria, she has awesome stories and is an amazhang friend. Love y'all😘
