After seeing what happened between Chris and that guy I was real confused I had trouble sleeping that night, and wen I finally did it only got worse. I dreamt that I was inside of a temple with plenty of statues and paintings in it and in on one side there was a hot brazier. I would have been able to make out more detail but everything was all blurry as if I were looking through a iffy window.

"It's nice to see you've finally arrived" an anonymous said, the voice was very muffled but I could make out that it was a female talking.

I looked over to the brazier and saw 2 tall figures that both wore cloaks with the hoods pulled over their heads, they both stood close to the braziers warming themselves. On figure was wearing a dark grey cloak and the other wore a navy blue one but the one in the grey held an old whisker basket with a bundle of blankets in it.

"Are you sure you weren't followed on your way over here?" the female voice said, "we cannot let them know she's still alive"

"Don't worry I made sure that nobody new I was coming here," said the other cloaked figure that had the voice of a man "it was a long journey in the terrible weather but I managed"

The female figure knelt beside the basket and looked into it, "She has great power, we must hide her from the world until she realizes what se is a part of".

The female then lifted the bundle of blankets and inside there was a beautiful little baby that was fast asleep.

I tried to call out to the two cloaked figures but it was as if my voice didn't work.

"But what shall we name her?" Said the male figure as he adjusted his cloak, "we must at least name her before we-"

All of a sudden the floor underneath me began to crumple and fell apart as the two voices became muffled and next thing I knew, I was falling into an abyss screaming for my life helplessly.

I woke up in cold sweat, I looked outside the window and saw that the sun was just rising. I looked at the clock which told me it was 7 o'clock in the morning, I attempted falling back to sleep with no luck at all. So I just slipped out of my sleeping bag and went to take a hot shower and brush my teeth. I dressed into the change if clothes I was given, a bright orange T-shirt with Camp Half-Blood written across it and a pair of blue shorts.

I walked over to the cabin's window and sat in the window sill and looked outside at all the birds flying around and nymphs who were milling around.

Eventually everyone else began to wake up and got dressed, when Jennifer woke up she walked over to me.

"So how did you sleep?" She asked nonchalantly.

"Um, well I've had better nights but it was alright" I responded stating at the floor.

"I'm assuming you had some dreams then?" She said as she pulled her hair into a tight ponytail, "it's cool don't worry all demigods have weird dreams we all eventually just get used to them"

"Oh, we'll then for the tip I appreciate it, by the way um when do we have breakfast?"

"Ah breakfast, we'll were gonna be heading out real soon don't you worry"

All of a sudden I heard a loud horn blow in the distance and Jennifer yelled at the cabin, "Everyone was out its time for breakfast, let's head out".

I decided to just follow the crowd of kids as they left the cabin, in total there were about 40 Hermes kids so it wasn't too hard to follow them. When we made it to the Hermes table I decided to just sit alone at one end of the table.

I got myself some pancakes with some eggs and bacon, when I sacrificed some of my food to the brazier I briefly prayed to my godly parent to please claim me ASAP.
