Tera and Nate noticed the rain too. How could it happen? they both thought, not knowing of each others thoughts. They looked at each other and mouthed 'Rain'. "This can't happen," Nate said to Tera. "The Camp borders don't let in weather. "They didn't let in weather," she replied. "The borders are failing, the gods are angry. And whatever Hades has in store for us, the Golden Fleece won't do anything to stop it." Little did she know, Tera had just scared the living dead out of her little brother.

 

OOC: did i mention tera is older than nate, like artemis and apollo? well she is, thought you might like that little tid btit. Nate also has a tendency to call tera little sister, but they get along WAAAY better than the dad and aunt.

 

IC: "I don't know about youm but I think we need to see the Oracle," Nate said to Tera. "Agreed."

"Oracle. No. Not yet. This is serious, but not nearly as bad as what would happen if we didn't have a well oiled team." Bridger felt strongly about how groups work together. Growing up in an Elven Faction definetly changed the way he looked at teamwork. Nate spoke up, staring Bridger down the entire time. "Who said anything about a group?" Bridger responded calmly, keeping his anger down. "Well, nobody. But i noticed the constellations, and..." Maia corrected him, "I noticed the constellations, and he is right. Quests are meant for groups. Maybe not all 5 of us, but certainly more than two Apollo archers." Tera interrupted "Understood. But who consults the Oracle?" The camp fire blared and increased in size. "No Oracle yet! We don't even know each others names." "Maia, of Athena. Skilled swords-woman and intermediate historian." The group seemed to like her introduction style. They followed. "Bridger, of Hephaestus. Efficient forger and one Hades of a shot, arrows of course. Not some no requirement SMG expert." He glared at Damian, and smirked. An awkward pause was in effect. Maia grew tired of the patience, "And you would be...?"

Dante ran up as well. 'Dante, of Aphrodite. Skilled swordsman, and tracker.'

Damian replied to Maia's question with, 'Damian. Ares.' He lied fluently, steeping forward, right up to Bridger. 'Weapons master, of both Greek, and some more modern styles of battle. So if I were you, I'd deal with the fact that I happen to enjoy killing an army of Empousa with one round of bullets. Because if you focus on the big guns, you forget to realized that there's an equally dangerous dagger pointed at you.' Damian stepped back, revealing the fact that he had a dagger poised to impale Bridger. Damian smirked, then replaced his knife in a pocket.

OOC: i am trying to wait for Blue to reply so this is short and simple, sorry.

 

IC: Bridger didn't flinch. "Lies. No son of Ares would dare carry a modern weapon, let alone a sub-machine gun. Who are you truly a son of hmm?" Nate butted in, "Yeah he is right, plus, who invited you." Maia was hesitant. "Guys, lets not mess with him alright, obviously he is older. Plus, that dagger of his was multicolored. Celestial Bronze can't be painted over, so i am assuming it has more than one type of metal in it. Something that could harm a mortal even." Bridger smiled, "Nice detective skills Maia, those will come in handy if the quest ever gets going." Tera giggled, "You are the one who held us off this long!"

ooc: OMG! NO! in the RP rules in the forum, it states that you can't control other users characters without permission. Period. You can say they nod their head and start walking, but thats about it. No talking. Im sorry, but you can't do that. Also, i meant nate and terra go see the oracle. They are talking to themselves. Also in the thread title, put in [PG-13]. That is also in the rules.

 

anyway, i am now posting my post:

 

 

IC:ooc: all quests ideas should be PM'd to either strategist14,social slayer or Myself, before posting them. We will approve or disapprove your idea. This is to make sure we don't have people going on quests willy-nilly.

 

 

Nate and Tera went to the Big House. They went inside, and went up the stair. Then it was down the long hallway, until they reached the ladder. "Only one of us can go see her," Nate said. "It should be you." Tera looked frightend. "No, you go, I'm scared of...her..." "Okay," Nate replied, trying to look brave. "I'll go." In a few seconds he wished he hadn't gone. He had foolishly chosen to go in the evening, and it was almost dark. There was almost no light, only the moon showing through the window, and it was dim. Very dim. Whats happening to the moon? Whats wrong with Artemis? It was a full moon, with not a cloud in sight, and he could barely see it. This is bad. Very bad. The attic had the smell of hundred years worth of rotting meat and mold. It made Nate gag. He looked around and there was still tons and tons of trophies. After the Battle of Manhattan, the amount of campers tripeled. Many, MANY trophies were won, and many peices leftover from battles, like the famous minotaur horn form Percy's first true battle. Now they just collected dust. He walked up to the oracle and said, "O'Great Oracle of Delphi! What can my sister and I do to help the Olympians and Camp Half-Blood?"

 

OOC: did i mention that rachel elizabeth dare lost the spirit of the oracle when most of the campers left?

 

IC: Green smoke started bellowing out of the oracles mouth. Then she spoke:

 

Two young archers, famous to friends,

If they do not help, they will see the end.

Find their Father, ask whats wrong,

Do whats right, and save them all.

Fight many beasts, save the hill,

If that is, the archers will.

Nate left the attic in a hurry. He had seen enough of the oracles mangled body. When he got down the ladder, Tera asked "So, what do we do?" "We, need to see dad again," Nate said, looking like he had seen a ghost, which he had.

 

OOC: this is a quest that is taking place inside camp, so we dont need to worry about the group of 3.

Damian's eyes flashed, and he took an uncertain step back, but quickly regained his composure.

'If it's a weapon, I'll use it.' He turned to Maia. 'And yes, this dagger can kill mortals just as easily as monsters. Meaning it can kill demigods twice over.' His eyes flashed. 'Not to mention that it's completely impossible to trace an injury back to this weapon. Especially if I use it on a mortal. In addition, I've got a sword made of Stygian Iron, and several mortal explosives, outfitted to kill monsters or other non-humans as well. Lots of weapons, lots of ways to fight. Lots of fights, violence. Ares.'

 

Dante walked over to Nate and Tera. 'So you guys went to get a prophecy? Any luck?'

ooc: damian scares the crap out of me

 

IC: "Well, sort of. Were going to need to see our dad, so we are going to Olympus," Nate said to the curious camper. "What?" Tera said. "Olympus? Can't we just pray to Apollo to come see us? Much easier than going outside camp and to Olympus." Nate said to his older sister, "Well, we could. But, tons of monsters come inside camp everyday, so it doesn't do much. Besides, I'm sure the gods are busy with other things, and don't have time to see their kids." Nate looked sad, because he knew it was true, Olympians almost never saw their demigod children. "If we catch him at Olympus, he can tell us what he needs too. He might also give us items to help." "But...but..monsters..." Tera was usually brave, but she was scared of leaving camp. "Don't worry, we'll be fine little sister," Nate said to her. "Don't call me little sister! I am older than you, and you know it! And besides, what if we can't find him?" Tera looked furious, but Nate just laughed. "Okay, okay. We'll pray to him first. But if that doesn't work, we go to Manhattan."

ooc: That's his job. The government pays him to scare people like they pay me to make people paranoid.

IC: Dante nodded. 'I'm coming, too. Well, if you go, at least. Then, I'm coming, too.'

Damian nodded, then glanced sideways at Dante. 'Count me in, pretty boy.'

Dante turned to face Damian. 'Okay, first of all, Aphrodite's love-'

'Keep talking, lover boy.'

'At least I have a heart!'

Damian stared at him until Dante took a step back. 'At least I've got a gun. Not to mention the skills required to kill you without spilling a drop of blood.'

Dante glanced at him. 'Isn't there like a legend or something about a demon who caught the blood of her enemies on her tongue so they wouldn't hit the ground, because that would make ten new devil thingies appear?'

Damian stared at Dante, grinning slightly. 'You know how she died? She woke up one morning and found a dagger through her neck. Wasn't too hard to do, either.' Everybody shivered. It was just the way he said it, that really freaked everybody out.

Nate had just had more fright in that night than all the rest of his life. Damian scared him more than Typhon and Hades combined, which is obviously very hard to do. "I don't know you very well Damian, and besides, if Dante's coming we have three." He started talking to Dante and Tera again. "Well, I guess we have a plan made. Lets all pray to Apollo to come visit us, and if he doesn't, the Empire State building will lead us right to him." For once that horrible night, Tera felt happy. "Either way," she said with the moon shining in her eyes, "Were going to see dad again." If it was possible in the light, Nate saw a single tear go down her cheek. Dante cleared his throat. "Oh, right, I'm in this too!" Tera said, coming back from daydreaming. "Lets leave to days from know if he doesn't show tomorrow." They all said in unison "Agreed," and left to their respective cabins. "Hey Tera," Nate said, "Come here." Tera came over and look puzzled. "What's wrong?" Nate smirked and said, "Even though you're my older sister, I'm still your big brother." Nate gave Tera a hug and said, "Come on, lets go get some rest." They went inside, prayed to Apollo to visit them and collapsed into their bunks, right as you could see a star twinkle through the window.

Dante nodded and began walking back towards his cabin, as Damian went, not to the Ares cabin, but into the forest. Curious, Dante followed him, drawing Zeta to camouflage his shield. Dante followed Damian deep through the forest, until suddenly, ten Keres appeared in front of Damian. Damian turned around, grinning, his sword drawn. Dante realized that he had walked into a trap, as seven dracenae appeared behind him. Five h*llhounds appeared behind Damian, and two cyclops came in from both sides. A flock of twenty or so Stymphilian birds fluttered down from the branches of the trees above him, and three telkhines came up behind the dracenae. Dante was trapped. Moments later, a scream was heard in the forest. His scream.

Bridger had heard the scream. His anger over everything that had just went down was fluctuating to much. He couldn't handle more dramatic argument. When everyone had split, he and Maia stood there. "Well, what are we going to---" She was cut off. Somewhere out of camp borders someone was screaming. Maia and Bridger broke into a jog. Bridger removed his bow from his shoulder, and began to load an arrow. Maia already had her swords out, gauntlets glowing impeccably. When they had reached to source of the scream, all they could see were the hinds of a few telkhines, and some dracenae skin. Bridger released his arrow, hitting a telkhine square in the butt. He vanished. The dracenae drew their attention from Dante, and began to aim at Maia and Bridger. Maia went in. She flanked from the trees, chopping down Stymphilians left and right. Dante had managed to take care of one hellhound, and was working down a cyclops. Damian didn't seem eager to jump in. Suddenly, a loud cry escaped Bridger's mouth. His right hand had been hit. Maia yelled in concern, "You alright?" Bridger knew it would be okay, his glove would fix him up in no time. But that wasn't the case. He had left his glove and armband in his cabin!

Nate and Tera awoke at the sound of the scream. "What the gods is happening?!" Tera yelled, confused and bewildered. "I don't know," Nate said, "But it can't be good!" They both grabbed their bows, Nate his guitar as well, and ran to the forest. There they saw Bridger and Maia, trying to help Dante who looked worse than a hellhound with a bad hair day. "Who should I attack?" Nate said to his sister, arrow already loaded and aimed. She shot with accuracy, taking out a dracanae with one shot. "ANYONE!" Nate took out his dagger and started knifing dracanae faster than he could count. Tera was shooting multiple arrows at once. "Tera!" Nate yelled. "The Cyclops!" Tera looked at the hammer swinging giants, looked back and nodded yes. "Over and under!" they screamed in unision. Tera jumped off a telkhine, after slitting its throat, and slashed one's face to bits, while at the same time nate went through the legs and slashed his thys to peices. The cyclops fell to the ground, screaming in pain. Then simultaneously they shot him out of his misery. They both toke down the other one with two arrow, stabbed through the heart. "Too many," Tera muttered.

Damian realized what was going on, and expertly drew his SMG and shot every remaining Stymphalian Death-Bird with one round of bullets. Then he drew his stygian iron blade and began killing empousa and telkhines easily.

'Why are they here?' He shouted to the others, as he disemboweled another Telkhine.

'You'd know!' Dante shot back, before running his blades through two h*llhounds.

'What are you talking about?' Damian asked, before he got clawed in the wrist by a Keres, and he fell to the ground, shouting in pain. Dante flung Omega through the Keres, and continued fighting equally well with only Zeta. He slashed through a telkhine, as he kicked back a dracenae, buying himself enough time to stab it moments later.

"What do you mean 'You'd Know'? It's not like he called as of these in! Unless..." Nate lost his train of thought when he jumped over a dracanae that dissapated onto a hellhound that was calmed by Nate's melodic symphony. It seemed as though everyone stopped to listen, but it was only Tera that stopped, holding and unarmed dracanae at bay with one hand and its sword in the other, then stabbing it in the heart. Then Nate told the hellhound to shadow travel back to Hades, which it did. Nate continued on,"Damian, whos Olympian demigod are you? It can't be Ares, you have more anger than him and Clarisse combined. Are you...gods no...a child of...Hades?" Everyone stopped, even the dracanae, in mid strike,with Tera about to block it with her bow. "Are You?"

Damian smiled, and snapped his fingers. The monsters disintegrated instantly.

'You got me.' He seemed strangely unaffected by everybody's amazement. 'However, consider this. If Chiron and the others know I'm son of Hades, what happens? They kick me out of Camp.'

Dante snorted. 'And that'd be a problem because..?'

'Because,' Damian went on, grinning evilly. 'Because if I'm not held back in Camp...' He trailed off, and Dante realized exactly what Damian was saying.

'Then you get a more active role in the death of the gods.' He breathed in horror.

'No, actually,' Damian corrected, 'I'd get the most active role in the downfall of the gods. Effectively, I could kill you all now. You can't fight off an endless wave of monsters. But that'd blow my cover, and leave me with an awful lot of explaining to do. So, lucky you, you get to survive. But remember,' He started walking slowly backwards. 'If anybody finds out about this, your entire camp is gonna be in a way worse position than housing a son of Hades. Like, say, fighting, said son of Hades. And we're the strongest kind of demigods now, with our father so powerful. Not a word.' He vanished into the darkness of the trees. Only Dante noticed than Damian had said we, forewarning of other children of Hades that they would have to fight.

Tera said loudly without thinking, "Oh yeah! We'll see about that!" They heard another snap and a hellhound appeared. Nate and Tera took aim and shot the beast in the lungs and heart, and it fell to the ground dead, and then dissappeared into nothingness. "Sorry about that," Tera said blushing."My bad." "Its okay," Nate said. "No one got hurt from it, so its fine." The two archers,sweating out buckets said in unison when looking at Dante, "We leave in two hours for Olympus." Dante nodded, retrieved his sword Omega, and left for his cabin. Bridger and Maia were catching their breath. Nate looked at Tera, "Lets get ready." Tera gave a small nod, and went with her brother back to the Apollo Cabin, which wasn't as bright as usual. They went inside and both showered, and then got dressed. Tera looked at Nate. She seemed worried. "Do you really think we'll find Dad there?" "As sure as I am that the camp is in trouble." Nate realised that that was the worst thing to say, because Tera loved camp more than anything, except for her Brother and Father. She started to cry, and broke down. "Why does it have to be like this?! Why?! It's not fair...it's not fair..." She put her head in her brothers lap, sobbing. Nate started to run his fingers through her head. He was sad as well, but he knew what he had to do, no matter how much it hurt. He packed what they needed for their trip, including theirs intruments, and set his alarm. "I know sis, I know." Soon they fell asleep, anxious, angry, but most of all, sad.

  • 3 weeks later...

Name:Brian Miller

Age:15

Appearance:Blue eyes, Brown hair, and freckled cheeks. He stands about 5'6" and wears a white under shirt with a blue un-buttoned button down.

Parent:Hermes

Weapons:Cell phone turns into a two toned black and white sword made of coated celestial bronze.

Magic Items: Cell phone that can store anything important and change into and out of his phone.

Bio: Brian was always on the run. He had tourettes, ADHD, and dyslexia and his mother couldn't take it. So one night he left his house in new York to fend for himself. Monsters haven't left him alone since, and he plans to stop running soon, right after this cyclops stops stalking him with a dazed grin.

Anything Else:He can run, really fast.

And if i'm accepted, can someone fill me in. I'm debating whether or not to read the last three pages (though I might as well) but I'd like to know whats going on and when would be best to slip in.

OoC: Oh and Brian can mildly fly, but not seriously yet, he learns that later on with the help of winged shoes first. and Alice would do well seeing as how everyone has two characters...and blue eyes post in HBS!

Name:Alice Wasweir

Age:15

Appearance:Hazel eyes, Red hair. She is about 5'4" and wears different clothes. She has waves in her hair and her hands are a little long. Her body type is regular.

Parent: Poseidon

Weapons: She relies heavy on her water manipulation, but if need be she can increase water density to make weapons at will, which disperse as well and sometimes are made of ice.

Magic Items: Nothing, unless you count a bag of seashells that tell her where water is magic.

Bio: I have no idea, how long this takes place after the percy Jackson series. But All Im going to say is that at a certain age she was sent away from the human world to live under the sea. Because of healing elements she may or may not have aged. When Percy Jackson blew things over, she could take her place as a daughter of Poseidon and leave the Ocean.

Anything Else: Not really.

 

IC: Brian slipped out of his bedroom window. The note on the bed explained everything. The phone from his father was alarming and Brian was upset his mom didn't tell him he WAS HALF GOD! Thats something you might want to know. Brian scoffed in distaste. He climbed over the edge and began to climb down the ladder. Thunder clapped across the sky. It began to rain and the ladder slickened. Brian's senses kicked in as he lost his grip. The world slowed around him and he landed deftly but slower than normal as he was close to the ground. He pulled his hoodie over his head and put some music on as he walked into an alley to avoid people. There was a rumble and a dumpster hit the opposite wall behind Brian. He looked up and pulled out his phone. The sword glowed on the white side. There was a cyclops behind Brian and he shook a bit. He didn't know how he could kill it. HE did the only thing that felt natural, and as the rain beat down on the street. Brian was doing 17mph.

Damian sat down, deep in the forest. Hades, may you grant me your power, that I may summon beasts from the depths of the underworld! 'Rise from the underworld! Keres, Empousa, Dracenae, Ghostly spirits, rise! RISE! Return from death, Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons! Rise, ghostly spirit of Ixion! Sisyphus, Tantalus, rise! Rise and wreak havoc on Camp Half-Blood. Stymphalian Birds, rise! Crommyonian Sow, Nemean Lion, Hydras and H*llhounds, rise and wreak havoc!' Damian tossed a pile of entrails into a sacrificial brazier. 'Lord Hades, grant me strength and skills, rise! Beasts of the underworld! Horrors of Tartarus! Otus and Ephialtes, return from the depths of Tartarus! Rise!'

Alice walked out off the beach at the edge of Camp Half-Blood completely dry. She always liked that about her father. Even though they loved water, they didn't have to deal with it all over them on land. She hadn't been to camp Half-Blood before but she knew kids had been going there for hundreds of years. Even her older brother Percy had gone here. She walked up the beach kicking sand into the air. She hoped to find a camper when she got on camp, but she wasn't so lucky. Some bushes parted and a Hell hound burst out. Alice swore under her breath as a wave hit the beach, high since the storm was hitting her at the outskirts of camp. Water rose out towards her and when it touched her arm she pulled it in and shot a blast at the beast.

 

Brian tried to increase his speed but the streets were slick and he tumbled head over heels into the street. A taxi raced at him doing 80. He tried to get to his feet as the wobbly taxi sped at him but it missed him anyway and hit the cyclops whose hands were raised high to smash Brian's head in. The door swung open hitting him in the back and three ladies in the front seat told him to hop in. "you're lucky your father has us on speed dial, you owe us a drachma." the driver said as the taxi sped off towards camp half-blood.

ooc: John davis is one of my new characters jakeronijo, hes a son of Hephaestus

 

IC: John saw a hell hound getting up, looking wounded, and a girl on the beach using blasts of water. "What in the gods name?" he said. "Hey!" he yelled to the girl. He pulled out his iPod and flicked the hold switch to on. Suddenly his iPod Nano transformed into a full size sledgehammer. He jumped off a cliff, and thought to himself, if I miss this overgrown dog, I'm gonna die from my collision with the ground. He threw his weapon on the way down, and heard the beasts skull crack. He killed it. Of course he did, that was a 200 pound sledgehammer that could only be lifted by him and Olympian Gods. He landed on the soft mottled fur, and jumped off when it exploded in dust. He retrieved his hammer, turned it back into an Apple Product, and went over to the girl. "My names John, John Davis. Are you okay?"

 

An alarm clock went off in the Apollo Cabin. Tera got up and yawned. She knew she needed more sleep, but they had to go ASAP. "Wake up, Sleeping Beauty," she said to her brother. If anyone could sleep for 15 days straight, Nate could sleep for 16 days. He loved to sleep. He began to growl. "Five more minutes." Tera pulled off the blankets. Nate instantly got up, freezing. "Okay, Okay! I'm up! I'm up!" he yelled. "Come on, little bro," Tera told him. "You can sleep when were in the Taxi to Olympus." Nate heaved out a long, long yawn. "Good," he replied. Lets go get Dante." They got their bags and headed off for the Aphrodite Cabin.

A wave hit the boy in the face before Alice knew what was going on. Oh sorry she said in perfect ancient greek. She didn't notice the boy walking up to her to see what was wrong. She put a hand on his shoulder as the water trinkled off his shirt. Do you speak Greek? She asked hoping he did so she didn't have to try and speak English.

 

Brian stepped out of the taxi and kissed the ground as the smell of burnt rubber filled the air as the three ladies sped off. That was the most reckless drive of his life and he would have much rather taken his chances with the cyclops. HE adjusted his backpack strap and looked up at the hill guarded by a dragon. HE was finally there. Of course he needed to be careful what he wished for, as he heard a roar and a cyclops smashed through some trees across the road and made its way toward him.

 

OoC: Strateigist, keeping the "attacked by a cyclops upon arriving at camp" aspect of Brian, feel free to kill it, although im still going to try. lol its like a tradition by now.

"of course I speak Greek," John said laughing. 'I'm a Demigod, aren't I?" He cleared his throat and spoke to her, "So whats your name, daughter of Poseidon?" Didn't get wet at all, dried me off by touching me, controls waves, Yep, she's definitely a Daughter of Poseidon. Before he gave her time to respond, A thought went into his mind. "Here," John said to the girl, "I'll take you to the Big House, there you'll meet Chiron, he'll probably want to talk."
