DANIKA

I sat on my bed wearing my favourite jacket reading a book. Percy was with Annabeth leaving me, alone in the cabin.

I was reading peacefully when...

"Danika! Yolanda! Danika!!!" Percy chanted as he burst open the door.

Getting used to my crazy brother, i looked at the page i was in and closed the book. I stood up and looked at him.

"What?" i asked,

"Yolanda...Yolanda..." he said, out of breath.

It occured to me that Yolanda (Haiyan) was a typhoon.

"So?" i asked,

"Yolanda...Greek...Sword..." he muttered, still out of breath.

"Yeah, Yolanda is a Greek name, so?"

Finally catching his breath more, he said,

"Your sword, name it Yolanda."

I looked at him as if to say, 'are you serious?'  then answered,

"Wait, so youre telling me, you came all the way here just to tell me i should name my sword Yolanda?"

"But... dont you like the name?"

"I do... its just, did you just leave  Annabeth?" i asked.

"Well, yes. She gets some  credit for the name..."

I sat between Janelle and Tia in the grass while we all watched satyrs play volleyball. Its been a long time since we all got together, being busy and all.

Janelle showed us her necklace she used during capture the flag which magically transforms into armor, spreading all over until she's covered in celestial bronze. Other than that, she uses a dagger.

Tia's weapon was really cool too. She had a bronze bow and a quiver filled with infinite bronze arrows.

"We should really make a name for ourselves, you know?" Marielle said, somehow sane today.

"Yeah. We have been calling ourselves 'The Group' for so long," Cheska agreed.

"Okay. What about ADHD?" i suggested.

"Cool," Tia said.

They all agreed. ADHD, it is.

···

For the whole afternoon, we just talked about our lives in the cabin, our brothers and sisters (which i had a hard time with, having only one brother.) and ended with the rumors.

"Raili, is it true?" Tia asked.

Raili dint answer, she just shrugged.

"It isnt," i answered for her,

"Its not?" Margaret asked.

"No. Nico, yes, likes Raili... and uhm, Raili, feels the same. But no, they arent... you know..." i said, not being able to say the word 'in a relationship'.
