The Crossroads: The Stolen Memories

The Apollo Cabin

Back to Zoe's perspective

I walked back to the Hecate cabin feeling a little bad ruining Logan's candy picnic.  Once I got to the cabin I realized no one in my cabin was even close to thinking about sleeping.  There were shelves of potions and I could tell everyone else in the cabin was making more by the minute.

"Hi Zoe." Said Lou Ellen.

"What's up, are you guys planning for capture the flag tomorrow?"

"Yep, it's our first game against the Romans.  We did a war games with them and they won so we got to step up our game."  She said.

"Is there anything I can help with?"  I asked her.

"Unless you know how to make potions, no.  You will learn but not overnight."  She said.

"I don't think I know anything about making potions but my memories are messed up so who knows."  I said.

"Well I guess you can't help with that.  Maybe something else.  I don't really know.  You could go ask some other campers."

I walked out of the cabin and started heading for the Hermes cabin.  I felt bad for ditching Logan since I realized no one in our cabin was even going to sleep anytime soon.  When I walked into the Hermes cabin I saw that Logan wasn't there and the campers were just talking.  They didn't know where he went.  I decided to head to the Apollo cabin.  When I got there I knocked and Melody opened it.

"What are you doing here?"  She asked.

"I got bored.  Know any way I can help with tomorrow's capture the flag?"

"Not really, you could ask the Athena campers but they'll tell you tomorrow during breakfast."

I walked in and sat but Bianca and Melody's bunk bed.  Everyone seemed pretty calm and laid back.  Some campers in the corner were playing cards.  Others were sharpening arrows and checking armor.  There were two boys talking.  One was sort of emo and the other seemed more like an Apollo camper.  Blonde hair, tan.  Built for the summer time.

"That's Will and Nico.  Nico is a son of Hades.  They're dating."  Bianca said seeing me looking at them.

"Okay, that's cool.  We should do something."  I said.

"Bianca and I have been working on a song to enchant the Roman's if we get the chance."

"Yeah, Melody is going to play her combat ukulele while I sing."

"Combat ukulele?" I asked them.

"Yeah." Said Melody. "Bianca calls it that because I made it out of celestial bronze so it wouldn't break easily.  I did that with most my instruments."

"So what weapons are you gonna use tomorrow."  I asked them.

"I have my bow, shield from Apollo, and special arrows."  Bianca said.

She pulled out a bracelet with beads that looked like a sunrise.  In the middle was a lyre, the sign of Apollo.  "If I touch the lyre..."  She did this and it turned into a shield that nearly blinded me.

"I have a bow, sword, my armor from Apollo, combat ukulele, and healing supplies."

"Cool.  What type of armor do you have?"  She pulled out a necklace from under her shirt.  It was shaped like a raindrop and had a sunset on it.

She pressed on it and I could see a shimmer of light go on her.  It was hard to tell but in the dark I could see the faint glow of armor.  It looked somewhat like the sunset on the necklace.

"When I press on the necklace it gives me armor.  It is hard to see and is weightless."  Melody said.

"What weapons do you have Zoe?" Bianca asked me.

I pulled out my Hecate wheel.  I left my notebook in the cabin.

"This wheel can turn into about any weapon."  I said turning it into a bow.  "Also I can do this thing called drawing magic where I draw something and say it in ancient Greek.  Then it comes to life."  

"Cool."  They said in unison.  

Melody looked at a clock shaped like a sun.  "It's already 10:00.  You should head back.  Sometimes the harpes will come and check the cabins."

I walked back to my cabin and was very tired from the day.  Once I got to the cabin I saw my siblings were finishing up the potions.  I went to my bed and was out like a light.
