Chapter 8 Romans

"The Romans are here! The Romans are here!" Someone yelled.

I looked up, surprised. I had been sitting at the lake, looking out over the water.

I jumped up quickly, and ran to Thalia's pine tree.

I stood up on the hill and saw black vans pull up to camp.

Then people climbed out of them.

There was one in the front, that looked like the leader. She had long, jet black hair and black obsidian eyes. Everyone gave her space and followed her.

At her shoulder, there was a tall, bulky looking Chinese guy.

Standing beside him holding his hand, was a curly cinnamon brown haired girl with unique gold eyes.

I was surprised when they all ran up the hill and greeted Percy, Annabeth, Leo, Jason, and Piper with hugs.

"Long time no see!"

"How's it going?"

They all walked to the dining pavilion, chatting.

I looked around to see other Greeks talking to Romans.

There was Castor(AN I can't remember which brother died in the first war) talking to another demigod who I assumed was his Roman brother.

The guy had a thermos full of KoolAid I think and was gulping it down every few seconds. He had really red lips and was jumping all over the place, acting hyperactive. Even Leo wasn't that hyper.

I spotted Will talking to a couple of people and I walked over.

"Hey Astria! Meet Nico and Lizzie."

Lizzie had shoulder length blond hair and bright blue eyes, so I assumed she was a daughter of Apollo too.

Nico had a head of dark hair, black eyes, and black clothing.

"Hey." I greeted.

"Hi I'm Elizabeth! But call me Lizzie, unless you want a sword stuck in your throat."

"Um okay." I shook hands with her.

"Nico Di Angelo son of Hades." I shook his hand; it was really cold.

"Isn't Hades a Greek god?"

"I had some business at Camp Jupiter to take care of and I'm also Plutos ambassador."

"Oh. Well, I'm Astria Summers, daughter of Apollo, Hunter of Artemis."

"Oooh we're sisters!" Lizzie squealed.

"Guys, we need to go to the dining hall." Will butted in.

"Okay! Let's go!" Lizzie said and dragged me along.

We got there and Chiron was announcing something.

"The Romans are here today, and they are going to sleep in the cabins, according to parent. They plan on staying for a little while. To celebrate thier arrival, we are going to have a Capture the Flag!"

Everyone cheered.

"Everyone is now dismissed to go spend the day preparing for the game or visiting."

I spent the afternoon chatting with Lizzie. She was a cool sister, she was somewhat a girly girl but smart too. She was studying Greek right now. She was 15 years old, and new at Camp Jupiter.

Finally it was time for Capture the Flag.

"Good luck!" Lizzie called.

"You too!"

Then I ran off to join my team.

AN Hey everybody! How's it going? I can't believe I've gotten over 70 reads! Thanks! If you are wondering, I try to update at least once a week. I've been sorta lazy this week on writing. Today I got to see The Maze Runner! It was a good movie, but a lot different from the book. The plot was the same, but it was still different. Also, today was my first day of semester tests. Yay. :/ Anyway, my first day of tests was pretty easy. After Friday, we have Christmas Break! Yes!!!!!! I can't wait!

Yours in demigodishness and all that. Peace out.
