Once, Upon a time Hayden went by Hayden. Not Silver. Once, Upon a time Hayden smiled and was kind. She cared. Once, Upon a time Hayden had a caring mother... Once, Upon a time Hayden's mother made a big mistake and it started like this... Wedding bells, funeral bells, to Hayden's mother they all were the same. One day she watched the night turn to day as her missing husband was declared dead, the next she held another man's hand as she was promised a good wedding. Her beautiful daughter smile up at her mother who was about to get remarried. Hayden was 12 during this sad day that the son of Pain swore love to her mother. How the mortal obtained the attention of such a disastrous Demi god and Zeus before her nobody understood. But she did. It wasn't even a month when Hayden found herself arguing with the man. He blamed her for everything, and all her mother could do was sit and watch paralyzed by the tension in the air. Hayden was shaking in pain and the room was bursting with energy as things exploded. The twelve year old girl's electric eyes were piercing like daggers but the pain made her eyes shed tears as she cried. "Stop it! It hurts!" but the man didn't listen. Choking back a scream she continued to violently shake "Mommy, please...make him stop," but in response her mother stood up. Holding a metaling knife and walked over to her daughter. The blade approached the throat of the young girl. The man whispering "Slice it, all the troubles will end. The pain will stop..."
The lady nodded but the second the knife touched Hayden's throat a electric current split the air. Screaming Hayden watched the room fade in flashing lights as lightning struck down. And when it ended she stood up alone. The man payed on the floor not twitching. The woman looked burnt. So that's the result. Hayden chocked back a cry of horror. What had she done? Sitting down she started crying.
And she froze in mid tear. Collapsing onto the floor and she started shaking violently. Stormy gray eyes widening she screamed at the unbearable pain. Even stronger than that inflicted by the man. "You killed my only son. And for that you will pay..." Maybe this would make more sense if you knew why the man hated Silver. Though the answer bit certain we do know one thing. It was Hayden who attracted so many monsters, and the fact one drove him insane made matters worse.
Zeus didn't save her that day. It was Conner who ran to her, the boy only twelve as he swooped down with a giant metallic eagle and picked her up. It was Conner who handed her her first weapon. Conner who took care of her. Hayden was traumatized for months. And when Conner finally healed her...he died...and that time she had to save herself. After that Hayden changed her name to Silver, along with that she changed everything about her. With Conner died Hayden, and with Hayden's death cane Silver's birth. Funny how when she believed the world has finally making sense he was brutally murdered and she saw the truth in life. In it's cruel joke of a meaning.
Silver gained complete control of her powers and studied the art of fighting with other nomadic Demi-gods she soon left the group. Strong, independent, cruel, and clever. Silver in a way was cursed. Every close friend murdered, every remaining family member slautheted. Maybe that's why she hated the world. Maybe that explains her cruelty to what's already been cruel to her. Once, You get hurt...you still feel pain. But not Silver. No she learned how to block this mental pain. The problem is that once a year it seeps through. Laying on the cabin floor she watched the lightning flicker from her fingertips and hit a special crystal and reflect the light. Her eyes a light blue. At this moment the dark room was light. The binds pulled down so Silver was gone for a day. Not spotted at all. It's been 4 hours since lunch, and she lay in her pajamas staring blankly at the crystal that acted like a lamp. Her clock flashing the exact date of her mother's death. Every year at this day of the year she broke down. Nightmares, staying in, all that pertains to being sad and in pain. Laying there blonde hair a mess, sky blue eyes streaming tears, for once she looked vulnerable. Not cruel. Not vicious. Just soft and scared. She looked like Hayden, small, angelic, and in pain. Always in pain. Always being tortured by the world. Now that should turn a sweet girl evil, turn her cruel. Teach her a few lessons from the world. Sad isn't it? 19 died in her arms and she's only 16. All close to her in one point of time. But this lasts a day. 24 hours. |

Lauren knocked on the cabin door with a few other Demigods the girl was awaiting Silver and she brought others to help her incase Silver wanted a fight. Her volunteers were of course not too happy about this but sone were curious to see how Lauren would deal against Silver. "Silver? Hey it's Lauren!"

Silver blinked. Stunned. Who would be knocking on her door? And Why? Lauren... the name ran through her mind calmly as she sat up. her eyes a strange shade between stormy gray and a beautiful light blue. Coughing she slowly got up. Opening the door slightly. "I'm fine...just busy..." she said softly. If she was to walk out right now, nobody would know it was Silver. Her apperance was completely different than usual. She looked a bit...kinder...softer...and strangely delicate. Such a alter in apperance can make you wonder how she pulls off looking so intimidating each day. Closing the door she changed. And surprisingly it took her less than 5 minutes to look peaceful. In a white dress with a gold neck and white sandals. Her hair that day was straight and layed on her shoulders in a casual form that clearly stated that she didn't spend 5 hours on it. She wore no make-up and her eyes were a light color. |

Justin was with Lauren and awaited Silver. But when the door opened he caught a glimpse of a beautiful blue. The shade taking his breathe away. Which was something. And a bit confusing. Was that Silver? Or a unknown visitor? "Silver?" he asked cautiously not wanting to get electrocuted "Er...may we come in?"

Silver blinked hearing Justin's familiar voice. Opening the door she stood face to face with the son of Aphrodite and daughter of Apollo. Her light blue eyes cautious as she studied them. She stood hidden behind the door as if hissing from the sunlight. The dimly light cabin was messy in the center but perfectly organized and clean everywhere else. "Yeah..Silver here..." she said letting the words roll of her tongue softly.

Justin stepped inside the dark room wondering why everything was dark except for the for where he stood. Catching a glimpse of her he was a bit shocked. She looked so...angelic. Too bad she would fry his brain if he told her so. But this thought didn't seem completely true in his head. She looked soo clean and innocent that day that it was mesmerizing. Like getting use to a thorn bush to find one morning it grew the most beautiful rose in the world. He stood frozen at her sight for a moment in shock. She in no way looked intimidating. With stunning sky blue eyes and soft sunlight blonde hair. Sure if one of his sister's worked on it, it would look better. And sure ge was use to beauty. But from Silver he always saw the intimidating beautiful. The one that was dangerous and everybody tended to keep away from because it hurt, but this, it was like a glimpse of Olympus.
Running his hand through his hair he grinned slightly pushing the thoughts back. No this was Silver after all. Daughter of Zeus, the very same person who wouldn't mind trapping you in a electric cage. And who, for the joy of it, scared his relatives out of their shoes. "Are you ok?" he asked still dazed as he stepped forward wondering if he was just seeing an illusion and Silver would outbid the sudden look intimidating once more, and Wgen he was barely a foot away he knew this was no dream. This was just a rare occasion...

Hayden/Silver couldn't help but study him as he approached. Her body trembling slightly. He looked too much like him. His hair. The same style, but it was the wrong shade. The wrong color. The eyes. The same eyes. But the wrong magic. She didn't feel safe anymore. No. He was gone. And all that was left was memories...
'Conner!' she screamed jumping over the rolling barrel as the monster revealed its true form. Conner turned to look straight at the problem. Pulling out his sword he was ready to fight. Hayden ran to him and into his protecting arms. His sword tight as she shifted beside him. Her own sword being back in the alley were they we're at that night. Conner's crystal sword shakes slightly as his eyes flashed. Hayden looked up at the slightly older boy "More are coming...I can feel it..." he nodded "So can I..." he was son of Hecate. A magician. Wizard. But even he couldn't fight the wave of upcoming monsters.
Turning to look at her he whispered "No matter what happens, stay alive. That's all I ask," Hayden started shaking as the monsters came closer. The wall pressed behind them as they were cornered in a empty grocery store. "Conner don't say that, we will make it. Let's just run..." he looked down at her and nodded "Yes, we will try..but their is no guarantee..." saying these words made his eyes flash. And Hayden knew he knew more than she did. Leaning close to her Conner kissed her lightly "Hayden, run when I count to three...one..." the monsters came closer making the temperature drop as Hayden's face turned a bright red from the short moment "...two..." he whispered gripping onto her hand. "...three..." he let go and they dashed forward into the monsters but the shelves collapsed the baby formula filling the air.
"I got him," a sick voice said and Hayden froze spinning around to search for Conner as the powder feel to the ground. She saw Conner get dragged back. Panic flashing on his face as Hayden raced forward to him. A sword. Her sword, was in the monsters hand. Licking it, the creature smiled at Conner "You put up a good chase, but it ends now." and before she could reach him Hayden heard his last breathe leave. She watched as red blood spilled onto the floor. Her fingers catching his fall as the monster stepped back and pointed the sword at its owner.
"Conner-" the name came out a choked cry as she gripped onto his dead body. Her eyes flashing a dangerous blue for the first time. The monster grinned "Well daughter of Zeus your next," and he lunged his aim straight at her stomach. And Hayden didn't move. A electric explosion occurring at the monster flew backwards straight into the frozen ice cream section.
Vision blurring Hayden clung onto Conner the air around her making her own hair stand on end. Hayden at the time wasn't soo skilled with her gifts. But this. This was instinct. And draining.
Coming out of the frozen section the monster growled the air freezing and making the spilled powder turn to snow. But Hayden didn't feel it. The air around her hot and staticky.
"Well you want to fight." and the monster began making ice shards come out and fly at her. Hayden didn't move. Not an inch. But a voice whispered. Stay alive... eyes opening the energy became unbearable the air erupting as the whole building exploded making even Silver fly back her face covered in soot and her arms cut and burnt.
Scrambling to her feet she ran to the mess. Her eyes searching for Conner's dead body. Her mind at a state of panic. But all she saw was a glimpse of light caught by a clear sword. His clear sword...
The memory made Silver/Hayden's eyes water her hands rushing to her face to catch the years before they fell. "Justin...please go..." her voice a small whisper that was barely audible.

Justin felt a bit startled, wondering what he did. She didn't look necessarily like Silver, so he shook his head "No can do, the camp misses you. You haven't been around all day, and sunlight always does good for people," he smiled slightly not knowing if she would electricute him out of the cabin or just burst into tears.

Silver took a deep breathe as she leaned back into the wall and the shadows. Her hand rushing through the air as it brushed back the sunshine blonde hair. "No. The camp will have to do without me..." which shouldn't be difficult, it's not like she did anything kind except possibly toughen them up or damage them in the process

Justin honestly wasnt thinking as he took a step forward "Come on Silver, fees air is good." smiling slightly he added "And may I mention you look beautiful today?" which wasn't a lie at all. She looked nicer, but in a way this look kinda scared him. Normally he was ready for the 'I'm gonna kill you' look. But this was 'I'm human' look that just made her seem like a modest sweet and completely different person.

Silver was silent. Her blue eyes flashing a stormy gray. "I s'pose..." but the decision didn't please her. Turning around she stepped into the shadows of her room. "You can go outside," sure it was phrased like a request but the order was clear, and a bit sweet.
After that she entered the bathroom, not turning on the lights but making small candles light up. Light bulbs placed over them so that it worked somewhat smoothly. Closing the door the dimly light room was rummaged through. Finding a black hoodie she pulled that on along with some black leggings. Finding some white boots she also wore those her expression blank as she left the room. The little light flickering off.

Justin nodded and stepped out wondering if she would change back into the familiar Silver. But all she did was pull on a hoodie over the dress and leggings under it. Though strangely it looked fine with the white boots. Smiling at her he said "Are you hungry? Haven't seen you go into the Mess Hall so I suppose you haven't eaten yet,"
But something was nagging him, why was she like this? Surely a hardcore stubborn person doesn't just randomly break down one day and look like a sweet angel who wouldn't hurt a fly.
Justin looked away from the familiar but different person to see some campers state at her in confusion, 'is she new? Wgen did she get here?' their glances asked him but he shook his head as if saying he wouldn't answer, surely Silver would electrocute him if she found out he told everybody this was her.

Hayden shrugged not really caring. She didn't want to eat and she wasn't starving. Simply slightly hungry. "I don't really care..." her light blue eyes watching the campers warily.

Justin laughed "I guess your eating, come on," he waved her towards the Mess Hall with a grin. She seemed like a complete different person today, but yet the same. The way she walked and the way she studied everything was the same as she did before. Not that he watches her or stalks her...no he's just observant and found her an interesting person. And the only person he ever told that he thought Silver was interesting was his half brother and best friend who replied with a snort and said 'Theirs nothing interesting about her, all she does is shock you until our hair is jacked up," his fingers pointing at his staticky russet hair that even when on end made him look good.

Hayden's eyes narrowed as she wrapped her arms around herself. Despite the fact her hoodie was pretty warm, she was getting a bit chilly, but not because of the air. No their was enough static to keep her skin buzzing with energy, rather their was a strange feeling, one that made her want to hide in her protective hoodie. That feeling made her want to hurry back into her cabin and hide. Was this feeling fear? She wondered as she followed Justin soundlessly her stormy eyes on the ground.
