"No way! Mythomagic?"

Nico rolled his eyes but laughed along. "C'mon it was a great game, admit it."

"Haha yeah. I can't remember much, but I tried to play the online version."

"Online version?"

"Yeah, I didn't have any friends to play with, so why not millions of strangers from around the world?"

"Hey yeah... Oh, here's the bathroom. Should I wait out here or...?"

"Is there any other clothes available?" you asked.

"I'll check by the Aphrodite cabin, I'll be back in 20 minutes alright?"

You waved goodbye and went inside, grateful to be greeted with fully functional showers. You sighed as warm water hit your body, scrubbing the disgusting grime off your skin and after double shampooing your hair, you felt like yourself again.

"Hey! Who's showering? Honestly why don't people know the rules around here?" You heard an irritated female's voice outside.

"Annabeth wait!" Was that Nico?

"Nico do you know who's in there?" You turned off the shower faucet and noticed there was a towel rack near your shower stall.

"Yeah, It's my friend-"

"Hello." You greeted.

"GODS (Y/N)!!" Nico threw the clothes at you and turned around.

"What?" You asked.

A blonde, probably the one yelling from before, pushed you back into the bathroom and picked up the clothes Nico got for you.

"What did I do wrong?" You asked again.

"Um, (y/n), that's what Nico called you right?" You nodded. "After showering and seeing that there's a towel, you cover up your body, not just your hair."

"Oh alright."

"Are you new to the camp? And a few other things?" She asked.

"Yeah, I came here with Leo and Calypso just earlier today." You started to put on what Nico had gotten for you. A Camp Half Blood T-Shirt, Jeans and someone's used sneakers.

"Oh! You're that other girl that came with Leo. Well, nice to meet you (y/n), I'm Annabeth Chase. I'm a junior in High School and I'm the daughter of Athena. Have you been claimed?"

"No, not yet, but Chiron told me to try and not to get claimed. Said it was too dangerous or something." You shrugged.

"Do you know what he meant by that?" She had a sour face.

"No, but I don't mind. After this, what do we do?" Annabeth came back from her thoughts and told you that dinner would be soon.

Your stomach grumbled. "I forgot that I haven't eaten since this morning, is there a specific seating chart we should follow?"

"Oh yeah! All kids who have been claimed sit at their godly parent's table. My boyfriend Percy made the gods promise to claim their children. It usually happens when we dine, hopefully you'll be claimed as well."

"Is there anything else after dinner?" There was a schedule the camp runs by and you need to get into routine as soon as possible. Being the only one out of order will not do for you.

"No, but I heard from Chiron that we'll all participate in Capture the Flag in a few days."

"Are you guys done yet?" Nico called from outside.

"Sorry Nico!" You both yelled.

You two walked out, collected Nico, and made your way to the Dining Pavilion. Most of the tables were filled but you were still extremely puzzled to where to sit.

"(Y/n)! Over here!" Leo was waving at you, behind him was Calypso. You were so glad to see people you recognized. As you made your way towards their table, you could tell that others were staring at you.

"Here, sit next to Calypso." He guided you to her right as he sat to her left.

"Yeah (y/n), sit next to me." She guided you to her left, making you in-between the struggling couple.

Leo looked hurt, but he brushed it off. "(Y/n), did you have fun at camp today?"

"I took a shower. And I made 2 new friends so yeah I would say today was pretty great."

"Oh? Who are they?" He asked.

"Well I got to know Nico better, and a pretty blonde girl that's older than us. You told me about her before, Annabeth I mean." 

Leo looked at you with wide eyes, you turned to Calypso to see if she knew her but she was glaring at him. "Probably another girlfriend he had before me." She muttered under her breath. 

"That reminds me... I have to explain to the others tomorrow. (Y/n), Calypso, will you two please be there with me so I could introduce you to my friends properly." You both agreed.

After getting explained the whole "offering in the fire" thing, everyone ate and spoke and joked throughout the rest of the dinner.

"Hey (Y/n)," Calypso pulled you a bit closer to her. "Would you mind coming to the bathroom with me?" 

Though she pulled you closer, she didn't whisper at all. "Sure, I know the way." You got up and started walking towards the girls' restroom. "Woah-" Calypso pushed you farther and farther away from the dining pavilion and stopped when you finally reached the arts and crafts building. 

"Calpyso are you okay? Why are you dragging me out here?" Then an idea came to you. "Oh my gosh, please don't beat me up. I know I was talking to Leo a lot tonight but-"

"What? No, no, no, no. That's not it." She said. "It's the opposite actually. I'm not jealous. I don't feel anything for him anymore. (Y/n), I think its about time we break this relationship off." 

"Calypso, you're telling the wrong person this. But would you like to talk about this first?"

"What's there to talk about? Feelings that don't exist? I don't want to hurt him anymore! I hate the Gods for toying with me so!" She started to back away. "I'm leaving."

"Calypso, no! Where would you even go?" You tried to talk some sense into your friend, holding her by her shoulders. "From what I understand, you know nothing of the mortal world. Please just stay here and-" 

"NO!" She scrambled away. "(Y/N) LET ME GO!" A glow was coming from her. 

"CALYPSO, STOP IT!" Leo came from behind the building, his face gleaming with tears. "Just stay! Please," His voice broke. "We can sort this out."

Calypso looked away. "No, I have to go-"

"GO WHERE?!" You demanded. You couldn't have thought that your first best friend would leave you so soon. You couldn't let her go. "WHAT WILL YOU DO?!"

Calypso looked deeply into your eyes. "I will avenge myself. Leo, (y/n), I'm sorry. " And with those words, a large flash blinded you and Leo and knocked you both to the floor. She was gone.
