Scar's POV:

Grian was the first to wake up, I know that because of the smell of powerful magic reacting to each other.

"Grian! You know I'm sensitive to the smell of magic!" I groaned as I rubbed my eyes.

Grian stretched out his wings and turned around to stick his tongue at me then said:

"Chill, I am just stretching my wings, that leaf bed wasn't the best for the feathers. Also, wake the others up, Zed is still snoring like a saw."

He was right, the sound of Zed snoring made it nearly impossible for me to hear Grian. I questioned how the other wasn't already awake because Zed then said:

"Hey, wake up!"

No reaction.

I pushed Zed a bit then yelled:

"WAKE UP SLEEPYHEADS!"

"Just... five more... minutes" Zed muttered quietly. Then I got an idea.

I took a music sheet and my wooden flute and butchered every single note on the song "Morning" by Edvard Grieg. They all woke up and yelled at me to stop, Grian stared at me with the face of amusement.

"You see, Apollo was right when he said music has magic, so if I played a song like 'Morning', it'll wake people up!" I exclaimed happily.

"But do you have to butcher the notes that badly?" whined Zed.

"I don't know how to play the flute, I just started learning it!" I defended myself.

"I thought it was a joke, that day you said you'll ask Joe for music lessons, even Joe thought it was a joke," Grian said.

"You all are meanies," I complained.

Grian waved me off and continued stretching his wings.

"Joe?" Beef asked while rubbing his eyes."

"Yeah, Joe Hills, son of Apollo, true musician," Grian answered.

"So, everything that happened yesterday was not a dream..." Muttered Xb. The air was suddenly tense.

"Anyways, we should all go back before Etho and Exy think we'll dead," I said to try to calm the air.

"Nah, Exy is gonna have a blast of a time." Grian snickered.

"Exy?" echoed Beef.

"I know it will sound like a fairytale myth but Exy is Xisuma's brother and his opposite," I explained

"X-zoom-a?" Stuttered Beef.

"Are you gonna repeat everything we say? Ex-eye-ZOOma is the leader, he's a cool guy." Grian said as he started packing up.

"You are making me confused... how do you pronoun his name?" Zed asked

"It's up to you honestly," I said as I help Grian pack up the little stuff we had left.

"Let's move!" Grian said and took off with his wings, leaving us at his dust.

"Wait for us!" Beef shouted as he tried to keep up.

"No fair! We have to walk?" Xb complained and followed along.

"I want to do that..." Zed muttered.

Oh Grian, what a strange guy he is. I thought as I ran along.

The rest of the walk was pretty uneventful, Grian slowed down and no monsters attacked us. We were laughing at one of Grian's pranks against me when we reached the camp.

"There's the camp! Oh, home sweet home!" Grian giggled and flew in.

The Camp had a stone fence surrounding the perimeter, the stone fence is responsible for hiding the whole as it held the power of the mist. Near it was a field of ears of wheat and at the opposite side was a small clear area for battle; arrows, swords, and shields littered the ground, and river rushes by into a lake, in which, the main housing area is, in the ancient Greek letterΩ, the female goddesses' cabins to the right and the males to the left. Last but not least, the small cabin to the front of the camp, home to none other than Exy.

Exy is in full a suite of crimson red amour, his dark grey helmet with red glass seated nicely on his head, his blood-red eyes and with two huge scars, one going across his left eye and the another going across his cheek and met the first scar to form an x shape; Along with his white fading to red hair and the freckles across his face peeking through the red glass on his helmet. You can really tell that Exy is going to be one hell of a person.

"GRAIIIN, THIS IS THE ELEVEN-TIME THIS WEEK, STOP FLAPPING YOUR WINGS SO HARDLY! Those darn kids and damn technology..." Exy complained

"Grain? I thought his name was Grian-" Zed's question got cut by Exy.

"Oh, Scarface, you're back too, with new demi-rats I supposed..."

"Yep, meet Zedaph, VintageBeef and XbCrafted." I pointed at them and they waved and Exy waved back... kind of.

"Look Zitaph, VinatageLamp, and XbMined, I don't have time for you, and you make me have more darn paperwork. Do you know how annoying that is?" Exy frowned and then pointed at me and ordered:

"You! Scarface! Go and get my brother, while I deal when the legal work."

Without hesitation, I took off like a scared goat and charged straight to the Zeus Cabin, and as I thought, he was there.

Xisuma is like Exy, but less... well evil, he wore leaf green armor and his eyes are a pale purple with brown hair peeking at the purple glass of his gray helmet.

He stopped reading something to look at me as I try to catch my breath, I puffed out: "Exy... meeting... near fence..."

Xisuma raised his eyebrow and then said:

"Yep, got it, thanks Scar. You want to come back with me?"

"Yeah, sure thing." I wanted to say no but the thought of Exy yelling at Zed, Xb and Beef scared me.

By the time we got there, TFC was already trying to calm Exy down.

TFC or Tinfoilchef is one of the elder hermits in the camp, he has light blue eyes and had white hair and a stubby white beard, he wore a t-shirt that wore TFC and one of his legs was in a stump, he looks like a Santa Claus pirate.

Beef noticed me and waved and that made Exy notice me, he yelled:

"Took you long enough! Scarface, X, go and take care of the new guys, they cause me a headache."

"Yeah, thanks, bro," Xisuma said, Exy then followed Xisuma's thanks with a firm door slam.

"Oh, I am so sorry about my brother, he is a bit moody." Xisuma apologized to a very confused Zed.

"No... worries... I- um you're Xee-Soom-ba right?" Zed stuttered.

Xisuma gave Zed a smirk then said, "Close enough... anyways do you have any questions?"

Xb sneered at that question and answered "Well, who are our parents?"

Xisuma answered "I don't know yours but maybe, you'll get a sign from them. TFC can explain that in more detail later."

Beef looked at Zed and whispered, "Is Exy or Xisuma even a real name?"

Xisuma overheard and said "Yeah, Xisuma is a real name on a real person, Exy is a nickname, I guess"

I chimed in "Exy's real name is Elyuba, but he doesn't like that name, so the hermits started calling him Evil Xisuma because he is so negative, but he still doesn't like it so we shorted it down into Exy or Ex. So far, he hasn't complained about that name yet."

Xisuma nodded and asked TFC "So they don't know their parents?"

TFC shook his head and said, "Are you gonna put him with Grian for now?"

Xisuma nodded "After all, he can relate to them the most."

TFC stroked his beard and said, "So, may I teach them the fact the gods may... you know..."

Xisuma studied the three friends carefully and answers: "Yes, go on, teach them all about it, and oh Scar?"

I lifted my head up and said "Yeah?"

"Thank you for bringing them here. Sorry if my brother bothered you,"

I shook my head and started walking away. Geez, Exy and Xisuma are so different that it is hard to believe that Exy is even Xisuma's brother.
