War and Woes

Chapter17

He just did that didn't he? He just practically, no he reveled himself to the women he once loved along with girls he considered his sisters. He couldn't believe it. Would they tell? Would they ever forgive him? Would Thalia be able to forgive him? Probably not, he had no right to ask for their forgiveness after telling them he was dead. Plus even if he did reveal himself he left them and fell in love with somebody else. Yeah there is no way he was being forgiven easily or at all.

He looked up the the sky, night had fallen over Berkly Hills, where he was sitting looking over Camp Jupiter going about their nightly routine before heading to bed. "Hey." A soft voice behind him spoke and he jumped and had a arrow wedged under her chin before he realized it was Hazel.

"Sorry, you startled me." He noiticed how gruff his voice sounded. Did he always sound like this or was this all his ties to this planet coming back.

"Its ok." She sounded a little wary which was completely understandable considering just a second ago he was movement from shoving an arrow through her head. What surprised him the most was that she sat down next to him.

"Why are you here?" Void. She was asking questions now, but earlier he was actually considering telling her the truth.

"The hill? I had a very interesting day and was trying to collect my thoughts." His eyes were trained on the city below, as were hers but she turned to him and her golden eyes could have been glowing like his under the moon. The moon, he was the primoral of stars and he couldn't even think about the moon, they were supposed to go together Stars and moon.

"Caz?" He was ripped from his thoughts. "Did you manage to collect those thoughts?"

"Not even close Hazel, I'm just confusing myself more." She nodded and they sat in a peaceful silence for a while

It was a long time since he could remember feeling this peaceful on earth, or anywhere that was Shining City, it was nice. Hazel smelled like cinnamon and he could smell the food from the camp with his enhanced senses. The stars were incredibly bright even tho he had seen them from the best places in the world he had a great view on The Huntress from where he sat. He could see Mount. Tam just barely and even after hundreds of years it still killed him what had happened on that mountain.

"Do you think Reyna would be mad if I made the quest leave late so I could go return a few favors?" Hazel jumped when his deep voice broke the silence then gave him a confused look.

"Do you have a past here in California?" She seemed wary to ask him any questions, he couldn't blame her he had flashed out in the middle of their conversation with Frank and according to the rest of the camp, he was still gone.

"Something like that. It was a long, long time ago but being here, being on earth. Its all hitting me again after I shut it down for hundreds of years." Why was he telling her this? He didn't want to be telling her this. He didn't want to tell anybody this. He wanted to stay Caz, when he was Caz his past couldn't hurt him. He looked up and saw those big gold eyes looking at him, she reminded him of his daughters.

"Have you ever spoken to anyone about it? Wherever you're from or before you left earth?" He shook his head. "Do you wanna tell me? I mean, I'm a daughter of Pluto, I know wanting to keep secrets so I wouldn't tell anybody, if you want to tell me that is." She was rambling because she was nervous, he made her nervous. He didn't like it.

"Swear on my mother that you won't tell anybody?" She nodded and lightning crackled across the sky.

He slowly raised his hand and pulled back his hood.
