Chapter 7 | We join a fighting War Council
As soon as the door closed, the place became a miniature war zone. (Not that I was complaining, I missed the place) Series of chips, cookies, and empty cans flew around, occasionally hitting a random cabin counselor on the head.
And there was also some bickering among themselves, which I enjoyed watching.
"Guys! Stop, we can't fight Keia if we're too busy fighing each other!" Annabeth shouted over the other voices.
"Annabeth is totally right," I- I mean, Kaisar agreed. "So, Captains winged-people, what's the plan?"
Was I this annoying? Or was Kaisar just exaggerating?
"Skip the uniting part, what about the sun fading?" Clarrisse demanded to Will. "Is it Apollo?"
Will shook his head. "I haven't heard from him in a while, but I'm pretty sure he's not fading any time soon."
"I think we need to see how strong you are in battle. We can't have lives wasted because you were weaker than you said." Lex said. All attention turned to her.
"No way! You might be an enemy!"
"Just because you can bluff your way in doesn't mean you have acces to everything!"
"We should chase them out and deal with the threat on our own!"
"Shut up!" Ali said for the second time. "I can't believe you still don't trust us, after all, we're the one who told you about Keia!"
For the second time, everyone became silent.
"First, we'll see how good your warriors are in battle. Do not complain or try to stop us." Lex started again.
"Then we'll try to find out what Keia's plans are and we'll base our deffense and offence on it." Monica continued thoughtfully.
"But how?"
Seb rumaged around in his shield/medical kit and brought out a file(which was green, obviously) "I did some reserch about the Daimisians, here, see if it helps." he passed the file to Annabeth, who scanned it.
"Do you have a translation of this?" she handed it back to Seb, who swapped the file with another one with a small 'Sorry'
I thought back to the first year of my stay in the constilation of Chaos. I had wandered around the corridors, unable to make sence of the new language. Kyle and Seb(and occasionally a grumpy Lex) had to teach me to read, write and talk in the language, which I learned was called 'Casian'.
I watched as the campers gathered together around the papers and muttered among themselves. I caught words like "crazy", "vampires" and "chips".
They took a few minutes to examine all of the papers, so my group(the Chaos group) started to discuss plans for the camp.
"Train them? I know they're already training, but it might help if they know some Chaos moves as well as the ones they already know." under Kyle's hood, a blue spark lit up the inside, illuminating his smile.

Third Person's POV
Keia sat on her throne, looking down upon her growing colony. They were battling an ancient monster called Ziaxx, a serpent-like monster that occasionally vomited up its stomach acid.
"Hmm," the tips of her mouth moved ever so slightly into a tiny smile. "Bethr, report!" she called into the shadows. He voice was like a bell, tinkling and delicate.
With a whimpered "Yes, Queen Keia." a servant, barely the size of a ten-year-old, hobbled to the side of Keia's throne and handed her a thin peice of metal. Finishing the task, Bethr inched back into the comfort of the shadows to wait for the next order.
Keia looked at the metal, moving only her eyes. The metal shone blue and green before showing her a first person veiw of Camp Half-Blood.
The person was looking at Camp from a hill. In the distance, campers trained in the battle field. Keia smiled, her violet and red lips thinning as she did.
"Good, good." she waved her hand over the metal and the scene changed. This time, it showed a sky veiw of the camp. Leaves occasionally disturbed the vision, as if the person was in the trees. Keia sighed. "Stupid boy." She muttered. Then, with one swift motion, threw the metal across the room like a frisbee, where it colided with a statue.
"Get my charriot, Ethr." she ordered and another servant, this time twice the size of the previous one, limped to a side door, saying "Yes, Queen Keia."
