MY NEW LIFE AT CAMP FELL INTO A comfortable routine. my days were mostly filled by training and hanging out with my friends.

despite the constant stress of my impending doom, this was the best my life ever was since i was a small child. i had people around me who actually cared about me. it felt really, really good.

having friends takes getting used to. i wasn't used to being able to tell someone how i feel or finding someone to spend time with when i was bored, but with leo, piper, and jason it came pretty easily.

piper and jason were dating now, so they became pretty preoccupied with each other. by no means were they excluding leo and i, but they did spend a lot more time together. it didn't make me upset. it only meant i was left alone with leo quite a lot.

this meant that i was spending a lot of time when i wasn't training in bunker nine. i learned a lot of pop culture in that time.

the days flowed by in a comfortable ease, sweet and slow like honey, but in a good way. most of the time, i didn't think about the prophecies. i was just able to relax and kick back for a few months.

for the following months after i visited camp jupiter for the first time, nico and i would stop by there every week or so. hanging out with nico and hazel was always a nice change to being at camp half-blood. they understood stuff that leo, piper, and jason could never fathom as children of the twelve olympian deities. life was different for children of the underworld gods, whether you wanted it to or not.

the more i'd visit camp jupiter, i began to understand roman customs and values which made things a lot easier. nico no longer had to speak for me when we'd visit.

when i'd slip away from camp half-blood, i'd usually be gone for a day. i was able to convince my friends that i was helping out my mother and hades in the underworld and they bought it. they even promised to cover for me if chiron grew suspicious.

i did feel a little guilty lying to my only friends. i felt like i was being ungrateful. was i using them? i tried to tell myself it was for good reason to lie. i had to for the fate of our quest. that didn't stop the guilt very much.

i was pretty new to shadow traveling, so i ended up in the infirmary a lot. there were quite a few disasters where i accidentally landed in trees or on top of buildings, then passed out. it wasn't pretty.

i woke up groggily in the dark hades cabin at camp half-blood. my entire body was sore like i had been running for hours.

i hadn't been running, but the night before i had effectively shadow traveled from california to new york without falling out of a tree or immediately passing out and hitting my head. i landed in the hades cabin and immediately flopped on my bed, sleeping immediately.
