Demigod Stories: Saim's Situation

Chapter V: The Flag, The Trident, and The Flood

I felt awkward. 

Being stuck in a room with old persons.. uugghh.. I think I smell like aged people.

The sun was shining, and it was HOT! Was it summer? 

Everyone was still busy with their activities as they trotted in front of me, not even glancing. I could hear their whispers about me, basically, they're rumors spread by a certain know gothic girl, well, maybe.

"So?", a voice beside me spoke, it was really familiar, "Had fun inside?" 

Seph rose from my shadow and reformed into human. 

She looked different. This time, she wore a black shirt with red blot designs, black pants, and red shoes. She also had pink lips this time.

I was still worried about her grabbing my collar again, so I paced myself a bit away from her. 

"Nah, they were weird", I said kicking a pebble, "I said something about Dionysus and they became serious all of a sudden" 

"Wait", She said laughing, "What did you say about Dionysus anyway?" 

"I said he was purple, that's it" 

This time, Seph bursted out with laughter. 

"Dude", She said. it was weird because she never called me dude before. "That guy beside Chiron, he's Dionysus" 

"WHAT?", my heart skipped a beat, "You should've told me that earlier" 

"You didn't know?", Seph said picking up a sword from the ground, "dude, he was basically holding a bottle of wine. It was really clear" 

"Oh man", I groaned. 

"Listen, don't you worry", Seph said, "I am about to give you the tour of your life" 

--------------------------------------------------- 

It started out as an awkward moment but it came throught. 

Seph showed me what was of camp and the details also. 

We were at the lava wall, which was definitely dangerous if you are a rookie because, hey, excuse me, LAVA, and the shows on TV says that lava is bad. The different cabins which were arranged in a "U" shape depending on the Olympian seat, Apollo's cabin was awesome, it just glowed like a diamond. and a whole bunch of places, even the place where half man, half goat things would have a hearing.

As we were walking towards the Aphitheater, I noticed some other campers looking at me as if I'm a celebrity, or a weirdo.

"Hey Seph" 

A different voice sounded. 

I looked at the direction where it was at and I saw a girl just about to exit her cabin. She was like younger than me. She wore a blue jacket over a white shirt, stylish pants and flip flops. She was about my height. 

The girl then ran towards me and Seph.

"So what are you up to?", she said smiling. She noticed me and studied me from head to toe. "Who's this character?" 

Seph replied with a smile on her face, "Oh hey Lara, just giving Saim here a tour, he is new and all". 

"Oh", Lara raised her eyebrow, "What cabin are you in?" 

"Uhm", I said looking at the skies, "I don't exactly know it yet" 

"I have a hunch", Seph said punching me on the shoulder, "My guess is Poseidon" 

"Well, if you are Poseidon's son, I have to wish you luck for tonight's activity", Lara said confidently, "Athena is so gonna beat you guys. Well anyway", Lara ran off to the Big House.
