The last few days had been the weirdest days of my life, and today I was going something I thought I would never do, I was learning to kill people with a celestial bronze dagger.

Well, not people, monsters in human form.

We were a five hours away from Camp Half Blood in some forestry area, pro boy another massive park, Leo had rambled on about it for forever and before Calypso got pissed. Leo had told me about the giant war and how his friends thought he was dead it was about then Calypso threatened to cut Leo's vocal cords out, he along with Calypso told me about all the gods and different demons and how when a demon is killed it becomes dust, which would have been nice to know earlier.

I twisted the dagger in my grip to find a comfortable hold. The other two were sleeping, it was my watch and Leo had given we a dagger, it was fairy plain, golden like blade with a dark stone hilt with a lighter stone piece and the bottom.

Leo muttered something in Spanish (I was told by him that he could speak it), he became a bit more frantic, he started to toss around, but his voice remained muttered. Calypso was next to me, still asleep, Leo was on the other side of the fire because apparently one night Leo set himself on fire in his sleep and nearly burned her.

I was tempted to wake him up, but last time I did that she freaked out and punched me in the face. If Leo was to set fire and punch me... Well I think he would be ok with a nightmare.

It was two hours over my watch time but I didn't care at that moment I couldn't sleep, the fear of a monster jumping out and killing me was constantly in my mind. Leo screamed out something in Spanish, Calypso didn't stir but it made me jump. Looking at Leo agin I saw he was covered in sweat, I walked around the side of the fire and looking closer I saw he was covered in sweat... And tears, they silently rolled down his face. I sat down next to him and tried to keep him calm, with my mind.

It's the thought that counts (literally).

His finger started to twitch, then swiped across the dirt.

(A/N hey look at those kawaii (cute) faces guys!!)

He repeated the same things before suddenly stopping, he didn't move and the tears trickled down his face, the pops of the fire were the only sounds I could hear.

"L-Leo?" I whispered after a minute of silence, his breathing was still shallow and uneven, I lightly placed my hand on his shoulder, the memory I thought about before flashed before my eyes.

Flashback

The screams and cries rung though the girl's head as she tried to sleep.

The screams never stopped... The never stopped, every night they would come. The walls were so thin... So, so thin...

The screams grew louder, muffled sobs followed before the screams started up again...

Then silence.

It was more terrifying then the screams. Little Aubrey, in her panic ran to her mums room, her small legs running as fast as possible, she was always so short, up until she was nine she didn't grow at all.
