I followed the two people he mentioned to the Poseidon Cabin, still feeling out of place. Seriously, by the looks of the there face, I looked like I was stomping of the parade, which is not a place you really want to be.
They both walked into the cabin and I followed them in, nearly getting whacked by a door.
“Well, you can take top bunk.” And so I did.
I climbed up the ladder and found I nice, neat, bed.
“Night.” Percy yawned. 2 seconds later, snores could be heard.
“Iona?” I heard a yawn, and a word that I hoped was “what?”
“Why was everyone so shocked that I'm a daughter of Poseidon?”
“Well,” Iona yawned. “Poseidon's not really supposed to have children. Neither are Zeus or Hades. Children of the big three are more powerful and dangerous. I suppose--” she yawned again. “that the last thing they wanted to happen is have another dangerous Poseidon kid.”
“Well, that's nice of them.”
“Uh-huh...well, there are some good things besides that monsters can smell us better... like you can control.. water and stuff....” I soon heard deep breathing and then, I head no more of Iona.
There was no way that I could possibly sleep. Even though lots had gone on today, I knew that sleep would come in about an hour because I didn't read a book. I have trained myself well enough to only fall asleep after reading about 5 chapters.
So, I started one of my trails of thoughts. That's where I think of something, that leads onto something else, and something else... etc.
I started to think about Iona and the fact that she's now my sister. When I saw her sit at the campfire, she looked so familiar... those green eyes... I don't know, it seemed like I had seem them times before. That person she was sitting by, I just realized her hair was blonde... and that also looked familiar... then I feel asleep.
In my dream, I faintly remember sitting at the computer, on tinychat with my best online buds. I was joking around with Carolyn in the chat box, and... IONA! I saw the same girl from the campfire in my dream on the computer screen. Right next to her was her friend Ellie. She laughed and I continued to type madly away, smiling to myself.
I sat bolt upright in bed, the sun was just rising.
“IONA!” I screamed.
On the other top bunk, Percy sat up in bed, hitting his head on the ceiling.
“Girls...” he muttered and feel back asleep.
Iona yawned from the bunk beneath me and sat up.
“Morning.” She said, crawling out of bed and looking up to the top bunk.
“Morning.” She said, crawling out of bed and looking up to the top bunk.
I was used to jumping from the top of bunk-beds to the floor, so I jumped off and stood up.
“Iona, your Iona Nicole.”
“Well, yes, I mean no but yes.” She raised an eyebrow.
“I thought I knew you from SOMEWHERE!” I exclaimed.
“Zaidia Black?”
I nodded.
This lead to lots of jumping up and down, screaming and talking. Percy (after throwing all of the pillows in his bed) crawled out of bed and walked to the bathrooms. When he came back, Iona threw me a new Camp-Half Blood T-shirt and I head out to the bathrooms. I was still wearing my swim-suit under my clothing, which is highly un-comfurtable just so you know.
After I had changed, I came back to the cabin to find Iona siting on her bunk reading a book.
“Finally your back!” She fold the corner of the page in her book and slammed it shut.
“I have someone you'll want to meet.”
She led me to the Athena cabin and knocked on the door. It was a knock, thunck,thunck, knock and a slamming her hand on the door. On the other side, I heard a noise that sounding like someone falling out of there bed and then came three short knocks from the other side. Iona replied with another 3 short knocks.
“Iona!” Replied a girl that looked an awful lot like Ellie.
“Ellie! You were completely right, it was Zaidia!”
“OH MY GOSH!”
Then came more screaming, and a bunch of other Athena kids started to get annoyed. So just three online friends (well, now in-life friends) headed to breakfast.
We (sadly) parted with Ellie and sat at the Poseidon table. I was had three bowls of cereal and another glass of chocolate milk. Iona had eggs, bacon and orange juice and Percy had a whole mound of food.
I scooted my bench back and walked over give an offering to the God's when Iona said:
“How about me and Ellie give you a tour of the camp when you get back?”
“Sure!” I smiled, happy to know that I could finally get to see the rest of the camp.
I headed up to the fire, drinking the rest of my chocolate milk when something aught my attention. The girl in front of me had a voice that I had heard somewhere before.
“I'll meat you down at the arena, Caro!”
“Got it!” She said, putting the rest of her food in the fire. My brain quickly connected her name and voice.
I never got to swallow that chocolate milk, considering I sprayed it all over the girl ('s back) called, “Caro”
“HOLEY POOP WHAT WAS THAT?” She screamed, and slowly turned to look strait into my eyes. I was spilling out apologizes, about to ask her if she was who I thought she was. But, I didn't have to, because asked (more like screamed) it for me.
“Oh my... oh my..... ZAIDIA BLACK IS THAT YOU?”
“FOUETTE!”
We hugged and jumped up and down and just kept screaming. And screaming. Until and Hecate boy that was in line threatened to take off our mouths, then we stopped and walked towards the door.
“I seriously CANNOT BELIVE IT IS YOU.” I said. “Hold on just a sec.”
I ran over to the Athena table grabbed Ellie, and then back to the Poseidon table and grabbed Iona.
“Did you know that CAROLYN FOUETTE was at camp?”
“Who? Oh, wait WOW! Helloness!” Iona said, waving at Carolyn.
“Yep.” Ellie said, looking over at Carolyn.
“AND YOU NEVER TOLD ME?” Iona and me both exclaimed staring at Ellie blankly.
“It never came up.” Ellie shrugged.
"She's my awkward sister!" Carolyn laughed We all laughed, and walked hand in hand, off to do something. Whether we were picking strawberries, swimming in the loot, or just climbing a tree, I treasured every moment.
(Calmity, don't worry! I'm not discluding you, (I know it ain't a word.. XD) just wait for my next chapter.)
