Can we survive?

Training & explaining

I wake up early in the morning and so do Tyson and Conner. Thank the gods he's a morning person. Oh wait, Emma and Paul usually sleep till noon, and when they don't wake up, I will be blamed........ I have an idea.

"Hey Conner, we need to get Emma and Paul up, wanna help me?"  "Aaron, you know nothing gets them up" he says,  "oh I think I have a way" I glance at Tyson, and he knows what I'm thinking, "can I help!?" Tyson asks, "of course buddy!" I say

We get to Hermès cabin, and I stand over Emma and Paul. I raise my hands and so does Tyson, every one in the cabin steps back, and Tyson and I summon water, and dump it one them.

They jump up and scream, "WTF AARON!" "Well we had to wake you up somehow." I say innocently, "we?" They ask, "I point to Tyson, "this is my brother, he helped me" "oh that's Percy?" Paul asks, "no, Percy is our other brother, this is Tyson" "oh..... he has one eye." Emma says, "ya, you got a problem with that?" I ask, "no" Emma says.

"Can we talk later? I want to meet this 'Chiron' guy, have everything explained to me, then start training!" Conner yells "ya, sure um Tyson, could you take them to the big house while I find nico and Will about their training?" "Of course sister!" Tyson responds

"Wait, training for what?" Emma asks, "for battle of course" I say with a smile then leave.

I go and find Nico and Will already at the sword training area. "Thanks for meeting me here guys!" I say, "ya sure!" Will says. "Okay  so Will, you will be training the older ones in medicine, I will take you to them, and you can take them to the infirmary, and Nico, I will be right back!" "Aight, see you in a bit" Nico says.

I walk Will to the infirmary, and see Paul......YELLING AT DIONYSUS! Oh gods I'm so screwed.

Will and I run to them, and I yell at Paul "PAUL! Stop yelling at him please!" I chuckle awkwardly and turn to Dionysus, expecting to be blown to tartars. "Do you know these people?" He asks me. "Yes sir, they are my cousins"  "full cousins or half?" He asks "full" I say, "would you speak to them?" He asks, "yes sir" I say,  and grab them by the arms (extremely tightly) and drag them (literally) outside.

"Okay look" I say in a bad tone "you CANNOT talk to ANYBODY here like that, unless you can fight, and that's just for campers, you can't talk to him like that at all." "No, you don't understand" Emma said, "try me" I say. "he was telling us all of these crazy lies, like that we were demigods and that we would be in danger, and learn to fight, and that you fight most of your life!" She said.

"Guys, he's telling the truth" I say. "N-no he's not, no YOUR not! This can't be real!" Paul says. I sigh, "okay I know that you are stubborn and will take a long time to believe me, but weather you do or not, talking to him like that will get. Me. Killed. So stop!" I say.  "Wait is he threatening you?" Paul asks, "Because if he is, I will kill him." I start to panic because if he heard that, I would be so dead, but good thing he's not out here. "oh you will will you?" I hear Dionysus ask I panic and say "I'm so sorry mister D. They don't know who you are, and don't understand, they don't mean that, if I could just start their training, and make them believe, I promise they will behave"

"They'd better" he says. I watch him walk away, and then remember that I have to get back to Nico. "Will!" I yell, he comes over "Will, could you take them to the infirmary and start training them?" I ask "ya sure!" He says 

"wait, training?" Emma asks, "train for what?"  "Battle, but since You don't look like fighters, you will be trained to heal" "by him?" Emma asks. "Ya" he says "I'm going to train you" "but you're just a kid, and your younger than me!" She says. "Ya, but I'm your best option, so come on" Will says. "Can I speak to Aaron for a minute" she walks up close to me to talk, (even though they could all hear, I don't think she knew) "is he training us?" She asks, (I actually know will can't hear as he is farther away, but Paul can) "Yes he is, and I think we made that abundantly clear" "oh I know, and I'm happy, he's kinda cute, he's only a year apart from me right?"

".......... don't say that about him" I say "why?" She asks, "Because he's my boyfriend, leave him alone" I hear a voice speak, "hey Nico" I say "hey" he responds, I chuckle, "just get to the infirmary and work" I say.

I get to the arena with Conner and Nico, and say "okay, so first we need to find you a sword" "wait a sword? Already? Isn't he too young?" Nico asks "You were shadow traveling when you were ten years old, di Angelo, you can't talk to me about underaged danger" "fair point" he says "alright, so let's get started" I say. I hand Ben a sword, and Nico and I show him how to properly handle it. "Alright" I say, "hold it like this, then swipe like this"

We train for a few hours, and after a while, Nico and I challenged him, he's a quick learner, no expert yet of course, but with time I think he could be.

It's about dinner time, so we head to the cafeteria. "Hey Nico! Me, Conner, Emma, Paul, Tyson, and Will are going to join you at hades table if that's cool." "Yeah, sure I guess" he says, "but your cousin, had better not flirt with Will again, if she does, I will fight her to the death" "heh, don't worry, she won't" I say.

We go get our food, and make our offerings (after quite a while of convincing my cousins) and sit down and eat. "So tomorrow" I say, "I will have Nico train you, Conner, and I will see how Paul and Emma are doing" "okay!" Everyone agrees.
