Chapter 1
[thantos]
Thantos had been at camp for a couple of days and he hated it, two demi gods had found him in an alleyway and brought him here, nobody really liked him and no one wanted him on there team for sports, they had a good reason if they new what he had done, “thantos”, I snapped back into the present, we were having monster training
“what?”
“i asked if you new the answer to my question”
“what is the question?” a few people snickered, the teacher rolled her eyes and said
“do you know who Echidna is?”
“ya she is half women half snake, the waist down was the body and tail of a black serpent with speckled yellow skin, her eyes are like humans but when she gets mad they turn red like blood, she was said also to be the mother of all monsters”
the teacher looked stunned, some of the kids there had there mouth open and were starring.
“how do you know all that?” she asked
thantos looked around and answered quickly “read it somewhere.”
the teacher let it pass and continued on with the lesson.
The class continued for another half hour before the teacher let them out, and told them to go to have dinner because they would have capture the flag after.
They burnt offerings to the gods and then had dinner, all the kids were talking about laughing about how fun capture the flag would be tonight, i had almost finished eating when a boy sat next to me and started eating his hamburger, i tried to remember his name but couldn't figure it out, I picked up my pizza and was about to take a bite when the boy looked up and through a mouth full of food said
“sup Im carter”
I looked at him and said
“im thantos”
carter took a sip of coke and said”i don't have many friends here hope you are on the blue team”
“ya I guess” I looked up just as the camp director Chiron said “ok capture the flag in ten minutes, meet at the edge of the woods with your armor and weapons”
every one got up and ran to there cabins for there things, I looked at carter and asked
“we use real weapons and armor for this”
he grinned “ya its awesome”
we walked back to the hermes cabin.
all I had for armor and weapons was a leather chest plate and double swords that strapped onto my back, carter had full leather armor with two boot daggers a sword at his waist and a 2.5 foot staff slung on his back that when he flicked turned into a 6 foot spear with an electrical tip. We got are stuff and headed for the edge of the woods.
The teams were divided and they gave me a blue helmet. We headed of to are side of the woods with the blue flag, a guy from Athena's cabin told us to put the flag on zeus fist and then he got to kids to set up some traps around it, he was working on the defenses when a kid walked over to me and said
“ok new kid, you and carter go to the edge of the border, try not to let anyone pass”
then he left to give orders to someone els.
Me and carter walked to the river and looked around, there wasn't anyone in sight, I could hear people running around but that was it , carter climbed up a tree and I went and hid behind a rock.
Five minutes into the game we heard the first sounds of fighting, then kids started yelling, there was a little explosion to the the left of them and then a kid that looked about seventeen charged through the river and onto there side.
