(You should change 'h i' to hello, because it looks like Matt did something...xD)
Damn it, what's wrong with you? Stop feeling sorry for yourself! Pathetic... Summer gave a nod of appreciation at Vi, smiling weakly. "It's me. I...I'm sorry for making you uncomfortable when I'm supposed to be doing the opposite," she replied, chuckling softly.
Summer glanced at the figure standing just outside the door. A rush of familiar atmosphere surrounded her at the sight of the son of Hermes. "Of course. Hey, Terry. I haven't talked to you in a while." 'In a while' meaning before he had left for the quest along with the other campers and...him.
For some reason, she found she couldn't stare him in the eyes. She was afraid it would lead to the 'subject'. Instead, Summer walked over next to Vi, not wanting her half-sister to feel left out as the new kid. "Vi, this is Terry, son of Hermes. Terry, Vi."

( I don't understand what that means. xD Sorry about it being so short. ) The girl looked over to Summer and nodded. Victoria. Call me Vi. She smiled, scanning her eyes back over to Terry and scrunched up her nose. Assuming that the two knew eachother, he must have been a senior camper. Well.. Longer than her, really. Nice to meet you, Terry. She finally said, closing her eyes afterwards and giving off a little smile of content. Her eyes opened back up after a few seconds to show their sheer darkness.
Vi, herself , was actually enjoying her stay at Camp Half Blood. For once, she didn't feel like an outcast for once. |

(Woah, Matt messed with my post. I guess I'll leave it like that for him. XD)
Terry nodded at Vi and gave her a small and playful salute as a joke. "It's nice to meet you too! Hey, Summer. It has been long, hasn't it?" His smile wavered a little when he caught the shadow that crossed her expression. Seeing him must have reminded her of Shade. He had guessed it would be too soon, but he decided not to bring it up for now and let it go. He would have to explain later.
"Well, so how do you like camp?" Terry turned to Vi, wondering if Shade would have been so ecstatic for having a new cabin mate. The Shade he knew valued his family and friends, but what about now?

Sadly, Vi had yet to figure out who Shade was. No one had told her. Vi giggled at the salute and then smiled brightly. It's great, thanks! I love it here. Everyone is so nice.. Dispite the fact that I'm sometimes not.. Her voice trailed off a bit and then she scratched the back of her neck. Well, there is one thing though.. It's what she'd been thinking about since she had arrived to camp, and right up to answering the door for Terry. Why is there only two members of the Hades cabin? She said confusedly, not having any clue as to who Shade was or what importance he played in all of this. |

(xD He put it on the censored words thing, so everytime someone says 'h i', it shows up as haha what a joke <3 Matt)
"Yep." Summer watched Terry silently as he spoke with Vi, feeling sort of like a stalker. He noticed. They would be talking soon, she was sure he knew that.
Vi's last words made her stiffen slightly, and she couldn't help but glance sideways at Terry, before letting her eyes flicker back, bringing her attention back to her half-sister. "Well, Hades is one of the Big Three, so it's common for his children to be rare," Summer told her smoothly. As Vi had said before, Summer would tell her when she was ready. She shot Terry a warning glance, a slight movement Vi wouldn't catch unless watching very closely.

Vi narrowed her eyes a bit. Oh.. Whatever. She saw her glance at Terry and blinked like she saw nothing. Is she hiding something from me? It could be anything.. And thus her over-active mind went into it's over thinking. After a few seconds of jumbling her thoughts, she just leaned against the wall and let out a sigh. I'll be here if you need me. She whispered, rolling down the wall some until she was secluded from the other two campers. |

Terry blinked at her question, not sure how to answer. His bright blue eyes dimmed slightly, but brightened again from catching Summer's gaze. He kept his self control firm, still smiling and his expression unwavering. "Um, well, I actually came here just to say hello."
He glanced at Summer, sending a silent message.
Should we tell her? She seems left out.

Summer shot him a desperate gaze back. I don't want to drag her into all of this yet. Let her enjoy camp while she can. No one else had obviously told Vi about it. Summer didn't see the point of burdening her with the new knowledge. Well, she supposed it was better for Vi to know of the problem so she would be ready. But still... She hesitated, then gave Terry a final shake of the head.

Vi glanced at them and her anger rose a bit. I can see you talking, you know. I'm not blind. No way did she know that then were using their minds to talk, she was just assuming that they were keeping their voices at a whisper where she couldnt hear. She hated the fact that they wouldn't tell her whatever was so important. And she couldn't say it wasn't important or didn't matter because if it didn't matter, she wouldn't have to hide it. That was thanks to her over thinking, that she figured that out. Her anger was starting to reach a fever pitch, so she just let out a loud sigh and marched her way over to her spot, where she originally was and snatched up her book. Her fingers curled around the sides of the book and gripped it tightly enough that her knuckles were quickly turning white. She ironically started reading on Hades. |

Terry tilted his head slightly to the side, glancing over to Vi as she stormed back to her original spot. Terry decidedly closed the door behind him. If she wanted to know, Summer should start. It was her decision really if they were to tell her or not. "Um, would you all go like to do something? Like, train...or..." He trailed off, feeling helplessly at a standstill, with nothing to say or do.

A tight, plastic smile plastered itself on her face and she slapped her book together. Yes! Let's! The sarcasm was dripping from her voice, and it was extremely noticeable.. But she actually wanted to train. It'd be her first time, and who better to help her rather than people who had been there before her? A great strategy, she thought. Well, since I'm new.. What should we start on? She imagined of what she could start with first.. |

Summer immediately felt bad at Vi's anger. But it's for her own good, she thought, and realized she sounded like some lame excuse for a demigod parent, making her feel even more guilty. Well, the matter was already settled, so...
She ignored her sarcasm. "Let's go with what Terry suggested, unless you have any objections?" Summer glanced at Vi for her say, like it could make up for keeping the news about Shade from her. Training was a popular favorite with campers, she had noticed from the times when she herself was training, and small groups of two or three were spread all around her.

Vi managed to curl her lip a bit and darken her gaze down. Mm, yes. Terry, what would you like to start on? Don't take pity. Her eyes stayed at a casual, narrowed state but her lips curled into a smirk. A challenge. Oh, how she loved them. Just because she was new didn't mean that she had to start everything at the "easy" level. Like learning how to put on armor or brush a Pegasus.. Why not start with something more challenging or sweat breaking? Why not pick up a sword on the first day.. You never know, she might be good at it.
As her spirits lifted, her eyes actually seemed to light up and a low flicker of green hellfire flickered from her fingertips in excitement. Her smirk fell and it melted into just a normal smile. Well, this went better than planned. |

Terry kept glancing from Summer, to Vi, then switching it back just as quickly. Tensions made him uncomfortable easily. He was an optimist. He like to keep the peace. His attitude was pacifist like. "Um, sure. Training it is, then. We can also find a weapon for you and all." He was going out on a limb with his suggestions here. He wasn't positive on what to say or do. He didn't have any confidence in his spchoices, especially since the daughter of Hades looked so eager to do some fighting. "Should we...go then?" He asked, propping the door open some. (Any one of you can make the thread because I am lazy.  ) |
