After like 3000 hours of walking, sometimes on the road,  sometimes on the sidewalk, sometimes on some random dirt path ,Thalia finally announced that we had arrived. Honestly, all I saw was a patch of strawberry fields. Don't get me wrong , I don't mind strawberries, in fact they're my favorite fruit. But on the way Thalia explained that I was half god , half human and the whole monster thing and that I needed to be safe and the only safe place ( unless I'm Roman, not that I have any idea what that meant) for demigods  was here blah blah blah. And their idea of protection is strawberry fields? All I can say is this is going to be a long day.

Thalia and the hunters continued walking through the fields. Me and Angela glanced at each other and followed them into the fields. At the top of the hill was a big sky-blue farmhouse with white trim  shutters. Okay , now I'm beginning to see the camp part. As we walk through the entrance I see a huge pine tree . On It's branches was a gold shimmering piece of cloth. Thalia told   me about her tree and the Golden Fleece on the way here, but in person it was 10 times more beautiful. Inside the actual camp there were buildings that resembled ancient Greek architecture, a huge pavilion, an amphitheater and a circular arena. But they didn't look so ancient. They looked brand new. Kids and satyrs about my age in orange T-shirts were everywhere . Rowing in the lake, playing volleyball, chasing each other , shooting targets at the archery range, and riding on horses and unless  I was hallucinating , some of the horses have wings. 

We walked right up to the farmhouse , receiving a few stares from campers and entered. In the house It all looked old fashioned like everything was taken out of a 1980's magazine. On the mantel of the fire place was a stuffed leopard head. Suddenly the head roared. Me and Angela just about fainted after that happened. " Down, Seymour, it's okay they're visitors" Said a middle aged man in a wheel chair.

"Chiron, Lady Artemis gave us orders to take them here, this is Amara Heart and Angela Harrison " Thalia said . " Me and my hunters will be staying for the night". " Is that so?"  The man whom I guessed was Chiron replied." Very well then girls, cabin 8" The hunters marched off leaving us with Chiron . " Hello girls, wait here until I can find someone to give you a proper tour". Chiron said with a smile. Then he left us alone with the leopard head. A minute later Chiron came in without his wheelchair. I immediately freaked , he was a Centaur . Half -man , Half-horse of Greek mythology. Should  I call it mythology anymore? His back half  was a white stallion and his front half was, as I said a middle aged man in a tweed jacket. He kind of smelled like coffee grounds. Kind of like Dad on a Monday mornings ........ " This is Will Solace , Son of Apollo, and Nico di Angelo , Son of Hades " Will had blonde hair that glistened in the sunshine and bright blue eyes filled with enthusiasm. Nico on the other hand was his exact opposite. He had dark feathery hair and obsidian colored eyes that resembled shattered glass filled with pain, betrayal and hate. But on the other, other hand he's kinda cute. Will greeted me politely and kissed Angela's hand, making her blush. Nico just nodded at us. Don't get me wrong but I kinda wish Nico kissed my hand. Then I realized  Nico staring at me intently. I tried to ignore him but I just couldn't. So instead I said " Take a pic , It'll last longer " Angela giggled. Will smirked . Nico snorted and rolled his eyes. I remembered how shattered his eyes looked . And I couldn't help thinking I needed to fix that.
