THE LETTER

75 1 4
                                    

Sith stumbles outside, his eyes complain at the sudden light that hits them.
"Hey Sith!"
He turns to the direction of the voice, it was Peanut. Yes his name is 'Peanut', and yes he is a son of Demeter, the plump boy ran up to him
"Hey we...we got this letter it's for you"
He handed him a letter, it was the colour of sky blue. As he took the letter into hand he almost dropped it, it was cold
"Hades this is cold!" He said, quickly passing the letter to his other hand.
"Yep, Chiron found it out side his office, it was addressed to you"
"Didn't you open it"
Peanut shrugged
"We tried but Tony lost his index finger"
With that he ran back to his cabin. He crossed his eyebrows looking at the letter for a moment,then went back inside his cabin
He flung himself onto his bed, examining the letter. It looked like it could be from West wind, but why
He decided to break the suspense and ripped open the letter
Bad idea
A sudden blizzard filled the room throwing Sith back onto the Crimson walls of his cabin, with all the beds flying into the air. Then it stopped and everything came down including Sith on his face.
Breathing heavily he heaved himself up as frost fell from his shoulders, he picked up the letter with his shaking numb fingers.

Sith son of Thantos
You must be honoured to receive a letter from me Khione the goddess of snow
For there is no polite way to put this, I have your mother 'waiting' at the palace of the west wind.
I have a bargain to put with you, there is a girl at camp by the name Melody Song
I want you to bring her to me and in return....you can have your mother back


The words took some time to sink in to him, he stood there processing the information. His mother had been kidnapped, and to get her back he had to trick an innocent girl into the goddesses lair. And from what he heard Khione is pretty 'cold' hearted. He pinched himself expecting to wake up from this nightmare, nothing.

Yep this has just happened

Carefully folding the letter and storing it in his pocket, he opened the cabin door and made his way to the training area. The only place where he can express his feelings in peace, however when he arrived there he saw a girl of his age with blond hair shooting the targets. He had not noticed that there was a target behind him so when the girl turned around and shot an arrow at him he a had a split second to react, he jumped to the right, the arrow barely missing his face, unfortunately he landed on his face.
"Oh my gods I'm so sorry!"
She said she ran up to him, she wore a yellow shirt and blue jeans, her eyes were gold, like two small Suns.
"Oh my god are you hurt, I'm so sorry!, I...I didn't notice"
Sith got up and brushed his shirt, annoyed
"It's...it's ok, it was my fault should have noticed the targets behind me"
She gave sigh of relief
"Melody"
She said
"What?"
"Melody Song that's my name."she said holding out her hand
"Right" a chill went through him, as he shook her hand, he had just met the girl who the ice queen wanted to kidnap
"What's your name?" she asked interrupting his thoughts
"Sith....Sith Rangendre "
She chuckled a little
"Sorry, it's just I don't really hear many people with sir names so...weird, well except peanut"
He smiled hesitantly
"It's..it's ok my moms a Indian, unfortunately my dad liked Sith as my name"
"Who's your dad?"
"Thantos God of death"
"Oh..." She said "I'm the daughter of Apollo."
"Oh"
'I really need to get out of here' he thought.
Just as he thought of an excuse to get away quickly peanut ran up to him, the 12 year old boy had mustered over his face and camp shirt
"Sith...SI...th" he huffed catching his breath, bending onto his knees
"Sith, Chiron wants to talk to you, now" Sith took a small breath of relief, he turned to Melody
"W-well..ill see you later"
"Sure, same time tomorrow?" She asked
"Sure....." He said, he then quickly turning to peanut "let's go"
They ran toward Chirons cabin, they were running when someone tripped Sith causing him to fall on his shoulder, unfortunately peanut was not lucky enough he fell on his face. Sith rolled to the side and getting up as fast as he could.
He turned around to see a boy of about 14 wearing a purple shirt with SPQR written in golden, he had brown hair and brownish green eyes, he also wore black jeans and was Grinning from ear to ear displaying an array of white teeth
"Aww I'm sorry gothy did I hurt ya" he snickered
"Nope but you will get hurt if you don't get your sorry but outta here"
"You say something gothy?" 
Sith ignored the bully, he turned around and helped Peanut get up who was struggling against his own weight
"He fatty ya mommy give ya to many potatoes, too bad gothy's mommy ain't hear give you boys a naughty beating for stamping ma leg"
Sith felt his blood boil, there was a blur and the Roman camper was knocked of his legs, he got up with his nose bleeding, pouncing on Sith sending them both rolling in front of the Ares cabin, the boy punched Sith on his face twice before Sith returned the punch causing the anonymous camper to fall of him. The two boys scramble up, the Roman boy takes out his wooden ring which turns into a long spear, Sith opens his hand and his sword spawns out of darkness.
They get ready to fight when the sound of hooves takes their attention.
"What is going on here"
The man was on a horse, no wait he was the horse,only human from waist up
He was a centaur. He was Chiron
