Sword Play Can Break Elbows

Raphaels POV

Great so my dad was a crazed emo, depressed, god of the underworld. Yay, I fit in with the fam perfectly.
I sat there on the bed. "So explain how you know that he's my dad or whatever?" I asked taking my earbuds out. "Well I had at least four plants in here yesterday. I came in to water them earlier, there all dead. Plus Luke passed out on the ground once you left. Connect the dots." She raised her hands to "connect the dots". I laughed.
Luke knocked on the door. He peeked his head in, he was holding a ice pack to his head. I blushed a bit. "Sorry." I said. He better be fucking grateful, I don't apologize for shit.
"You're good Raph. I shouldn't have flipped. It's your choice where you sit. We really should get you training though." I raised a brow. "Training as in Planet Fitness or training like karate." Hazel laughed. "Training as in swords and daggers." She said. This is going to be fun.
We walked to a small archery place. Why is that damn blond kid everywhere! He was teaching someone how to shoot a bow. I stood there awkwardly. Luke cleared his throat and Will turned around. "Oh.. hey what's up?"
"Raph wants to train...," I coughed a couple of times. "Oh sorry. I'll put it how she said it. 'Your forcing me to train at a camp I don't even want to be at. Dope'. So... you free?" Luke tried to not laugh. I rolled my eyes. Will led me to another post. He gave me a bow and a arrow. I held it like I saw Merida do on that Pixar movie Brave.
"Are you a lefty or a righty?" I nodded my head. "Ambidextrous. Either way it'll work." He nodded his head. He help me hold it properly. Shot it and it hit someone in the butt. I bent down in laughter. "Oh my god. I just shot an arrow in someone's ass," I fell on my back. I have no idea why it was so funny. It just was. Will helped me back up. "So I'm going to take that away from you now. We don't need anymore butts with arrows sticking out of them." He took the bow off of me and put it back on the rack. "Now you can go try swordplay." Will led me back over to Luke.
"Take her down to Percy. She'll learn a good bit from him." Luke took my hand and led me towards a sword battling arena place. A tall black haired kid stood helping a kid with his stance. He stopped once he saw Luke and I.
"What up Castellan. Platinum chick." He nodded his head all gangster like in my direction. "Percy this is Raphael. Raphael, Percy." I waved my hand awkwardly. "Raphael like the ninja turtle or no?" "Nope. That would be cool though. Raphael like the fallen angel." I said correcting him. "Didn't Raphael kill loads of people?" Luke asked. "Yeah. I won't hesitate either." I said. Percy laughed.
He told the kid he was talking too to go get a drink and food. Percy handed me a sword. "I already don't like it. It's to heavy and is uncomfortable," I said giving it back to him. Luke laughed. "Okay Rap. Castellan shut it." Rap that's new. He put the sword back. "Pick what you want. I'm getting a drink." He left to get a drink and I went through all of the swords.
One stood out to me the most. It had a black handle with white grip. The sword had a white and red blade. I picked it up, it was the perfect length and perfect weight. I swung it around a few times. It was perfect. Percy came back. "You found one?" I nodded. "Hmm. Weird I haven't seen that one before. Before we start, any surprises you got?" Percy asked. I smirked. "I'll show you later. Like when it's important. I want to see your reaction." Luke laughed behind me. Percy was beyond confused. "Uhm okay. So first off. Do you know anything about sword fighting?" I nodded my head. "You got to keep your feet apart and open. Then second, I know not to die... I've heard it's no fun." I said. He laughed.
He unsheathes his sword, it was a pen at first. It turned into a sword. "That's dope." He raised it and aimed it at me. I blocked it with mine. He went slow and gradually got faster. I jumped over a blow he aimed at my legs.
I let my wings out and he tumbled backwards. He stood back up and at my wings. I tucked them back in so he swung at nothing. I was losing energy fast. I swung again at his arm. He dodged and hit me in the side. I fell to the side and landed on my elbow. I literally heard it crack. I cringed in pain as I laid on the ground. Percy rushed over and helped me up. "Sorry Rap. Didn't mean to hurt you." I nodded my head as I held my elbow.
Luke must've gone to do something. I clenched my elbow as we walked back towards the infirmary. "So... I'm assuming your new?" I nodded my head. "Yeah. One minute I'm in school, the next I'm in a van being taken here. I still don't know if I want to be here or not. You guys have no WiFi," I said jokingly. Percy cracked a smile. "So did you figure out your godly parent yet. Or no? My dad is Poseidon, kinda cool if you ask me," Percy said opening the door for me. "Yeah. My dad is Hades. Guess we're cousins. I don't get the wing part though," I said as we walked down the hallway.
I sat down on a bed. Will walked in a moment later. "Who did you hurt this time Percy? Raphael. Nice to see you again. Let me see your arm," Will gently took my arm. I winced in pain as he wrapped it in a sling. I was trying not to cry, especially not in front of two guys. (One of which was really hot. *cough* percy *cough cough*).
When Will was finished he gave me two little squares. The size of tortilla chips maybe. "Eat it. You'll feel better. Trust me." Percy said. I gingerly ate a piece of the pinkish orangish squares. My arm started to feel warm and fuzzy. It tasted of warm tapioca pudding my mom used to make me when I was little. My actual mom. I have very little memories of her, but that was one of them.
The warm fuzzy feeling quickly faded into a sour rotten taste. I started coughing rapidly. I put the squares down on the bed quickly. I felt like I needed to through up. "I'm going to throw up." Will ran and grabbed a trash can as I hurled into it. I wiped my mouth off. "I'm going to assume that doesn't happen normally." Will and Percy shook their heads.
I started to feel really dizzy again. I toppled sideways as I started to get really dizzy. Percy caught me. I couldn't hold my wings in anymore. Percy and I fell to the ground as the wings tripled my weight.
I was now half conscious and on top of Percy. I rolled over into the ground. I tucked my wings in for a split second and I felt like I was suffocating. I sat up and let my wings out again. A blond girl walked in. "Percy what is going on!?" She asked. I already hate her. I tucked my wings in. I didn't need any more attention on me. I toppled backwards again. Unluckily no one was there to break my fall so I hit my head.    
  Will ran over. "Raph, let me help you up." He pulled me up onto the bed. I sat there, wishing I had never gone to the sword range.
I sat wobbly on the bed. "Annabeth this is Raphael. Raphael, Annabeth," Percy said holding his stomach. She eyed me suspiciously.
I couldn't hold my wings in anymore. I let them out and the alleged Annabeth practically ran backwards. I was so tired of people treating me like I'm a monster. Another wave of nausea hit me and I started to fall back. I caught myself with my left hand. "I'm fine. I just need to go do something," I said slowly getting up. I stood up and wobbled my way back to my cabin.
I opened the front door, I was already super tired. Nico was sitting and reading at the small table. "Hey Nic'. What's up?" I ask sitting down in front of him. "Wondering why your sweating and out of breathe. You look like your about to pass out any second now." He said putting his book down. "I'm fine. I just need to rest. Maybe get a nap in," I said yawning.
There was a knock at the door. I turned my attention towards it. Nico got up and answered it. I recognized the figure as Luke. "She's over here." Nico led Luke over towards me. I stood up and met him half-way. My head was getting hot and painful. I was getting dizzier by the second. "Hey Luke," I said happily. "Raph, you look like your going to pass out. Your as white as a ghost." He held my waist. My knees buckled beneath me. Luke held me up. "Let's get you some rest, Love." He picked me up and carried me to my new room.
He laid me down on the bed. He laid me on my side so I could spread my wings out. He laid down next to me. I put my head on the pillow and wrapped a wing around us, literally on instinct. He took my hat off and threw it across the room. "Get rest love. I'll be here." He rubbed my hair and I started to fall asleep.
