There was twenty hunters. Twenty girls who followed my mother in my cabin. Twenty-two girls in a single room cabin. Mother help us. After we went and talked to Chiron the leader of the hunters, Zoë Nightshade, told the girls to go to the Artemis cabin. Chiron allowed but said that they will have a roommate or two. Ignoring his comment they stalked off to the silver cabin. I followed close behind, just to make sure there isn't a problem. All the hunter filled in the cabin, I was about to walk in when the Ancient voice of Zoë sounded.

"Whom dares to abide in this forbidden cabin?!" My eyes widened in shock. Oh no, this might not go so well...  I opened the door and all twenty heads flew in my direction. Zoë marches up to me.
"Is it you who stays here?" I nodded.
"Why?" She blew out in rage. I looked her right in the eye.

"Because Artemis is my mother. I have every right to stay in this cabin, more so than you do." Zoë and the other hunters looked shocked. They all dipped there head in apology.  Zoë was the first one to recover, she then verbally apologized and started to introduce me to everyone. I nodded and told them I had to go to archer practice, and they insisted that they, "shall participate along side our maidens offspring", their words not mine. They all seemed extremely impressed with both my archer skills and my sword fighting skills. The horn soon blew, signaling dinner. Together the hunters, Scarlet and I ate and lightly participated in the campfire activities. That night they talked about why they had became a part of the hunt; a few did it to go against there parents, others did it to get away from there parents punishments, while others did it over a broken heart. That night I laid in bed thinking about what it would be like to join the hunt, but they soon changed into what Aphrodite had sent me... the boy. I finally fell asleep with a hope that I will find that someone.

~Dream~
I'm running, I don't really know what it is that I'm running away from... or to, but I'm running. I look up, but I see a room full of roses. There all different colors and shades, the place smells heavenly. I look around and see peacocks all over the place... I'm at Aphrodite's palace? But why? I am soon greeted by a small tinkering laugh and a gorgeous woman. She had long blond hair and a blush pink toga on. I instantly dipped my head in acknowledgment. I felt the tips of her fingers lift my head up, Lady Aphrodite gave me a beautiful smile, I shyly smile back.

"My my, you have grown so beautifully my dear! Now I don't have much time with you, but I just can't help myself! You have been match with a person, the only person made for you!! It's like a soulmate!! And in time the two of you will meet, so don't you worry about not finding you 'someone'!" I looked at her, what? A soulmate? The crap? She laughs at my confusion. But suddenly flashes of images fill my head. A small Latino, with brown unruly hair, and dark chocolate eyes filled mind. He was cute. Glimpse after glimpse played like a slide show. I was soon captivated by the nameless boy. His eyes touched my soul. But before I could remember his face, everything faded away. Soon I was in darkness, and his chocolate brown eyes.

~End of Dream~

~Time Skip~

It's the last day of break, tomorrow I have to go back to Hogwarts. I really don't want to, but at the same time I want to... Anyway, since many other people are leaving to go back to school we're having our Christmas/New Years game of capture the flag. Only this time the hunters are participating. Campers against Hunters, this will be very interesting. Zoë is the leader of the Hunters, while Annabeth and I are the leaders of the campers. Together Anna and the rest of the Athena cabin came up with a really good plan, but when I went over it there was a few flaws. You see they had the flag guarded, and plenty searching, but they left out defenders and our battle people. So I sent out a few to search for the others flag, while a few more hid in the forest. Others will distract the hunters, and fight while the few who are searching find the flag. Those few will have some back up following them, just in case. In the midst of all of this, Anna is the one who would be with the flag, Luke is with the fighters, and I am with the searchers. I thinks it's a pretty solid plan if I do say so myself. Right when we finished the plan the conch sounded, game time.
Instantly everyone went to their respective positions and the battle emerged. I let out a battle cry and started to run into the woods where I would lead the others, all armed, to the flag. The few campers that I had with me followed up to where I would leave them, you see I have a different plan than what was going on. Over this break I worked on my little wildlife powers thing, and I can kinda grow plants. Not as well as Demeter, but well enough. Anyway, I started to climb the trees and jump form limb to limb, with a vine tied to my waist. As I scouted from the tree tops, my group scouted front the bottom. Soon I seen it, the silvery flag waving in the cold winter air. I smiled and sent word down for the group to stop and ready them selfs for a battle. I stayed in the trees, bow and arrows ready; and no the arrows will not hurt, they aren't my normal ones. Charles from the Hephaestus cabin had made some practice ones that didn't physically harm, but made you believe you were. They were originally for the Apollo cabin, but Charles changed his mind and gave them to me.
I sat there the arrows ready to fly at any given moment, everything was quite up until a twig snapped, I spun around and shit at the silver claded girl. She dropped down, clutching her shoulder. I went to holler at my group to surround the flag, yet they were no were to be seen. But there the girls in silver had tied my group up with rope. Exasperated I jumped out the tree and turned into a wolf mid jump and landed in all fours in front of everyone. The girls looked shocked and jumped back, while everyone else looked amused. I snarled and glared at them as I walked over to the flag, once I reached it I changed back and had the flag in my hand... the conch went off. We won.
