.: Mono's P.o.V. :.
.: First Person :.

I headed to the sets of tents far away from where the other kids were, this place is where the other kids would rest. I was still tired from doing that dinosaur transformation and using the transformation power again for the wolf and otter form. I am clearly exhausted.

I walked on until I saw my tent, which was a small dull brown tent, with still some silver in it. It was a Hunters of Artemis's tent which was gifted to me along with my ladle when I was young... well, younger and I was outside the Maw. I went inside and the tent was bigger inside, it was enchanted after all to be small but big inside.

Inside my tent was just a table with some fruits and books, three brown bean bags, some more quivers at the back. It wasn't much but I knew I am safe here out of all the other places I have been.

I laid my ladle and quiver by the entrance and plopped down to one of the the big brown bean bags. I also took off my paperbag since I was alone. I took a deep breath and sighed out as I closed my eyes, my body quickly responding to rest.

Then I heard footsteps nearby my tent.

I furrowed my eyesbrows as I opened my eyes and stood up, quickly reaching for my paperbag again and wearing it over my head. I had a reason why I wore this paperbag, I had this cresent moon birthmark on my cheek which looks odd. I like it, but I'm not sure if the others would like it too.

"Mono?" Six called out and I sighed, "Over here," I called out and she poked in my tent, she gasped, "Woah, it's spacious here," she said while eyeing my tent.

I stood up from my bean bag, "Well that's how this tent works. Actually all the other tents are like this. You've seen the forge, right?" I asked and Six nodded while walking it, "Yeah but it was sort of understandable since that tent was huge, but this is small, then woah," she said while waving around my tent.

I chuckled, "All these tents are heavily induced with the Mist. Can't you feel it?" I said and Six nodded, "Yeah- Wait, there are other Hecate kids?"

I shook my head, "No, we stole these tents. Aside mine since it was gifted to me, along with the ladle," I answered then turned to her, "I thought you and Seven were touring the camp?" I asked.

Six shrugged, "We've seen much of this place. And plus Two went off with Una and Thirteen. Seven's still chatting up with Five, but he'll be here too," she said.

"Oh, okay," I said while sitting back down on my bean bag, Six nodded while looking around. Speaking of the certain son of Poseidon, he entered the tent and gasped, "Woah, these tents are quite big," he noted.

Six nodded, "That's how it works, after all," she said and turned to him, "By the way, what were you talking about with Five?" She asked and Seven shrugged, "Just some questions about this camp, nothing big."

"Of course you'd have questions," I pointed out and Seven scoffed, "Of course you'd mess with me," he said and I just rolled my eyes, even if I know no one would see it.

"Geez guys," Six sighed out while eyeing the both of us, "There won't be a time you guys would not fight, huh?"

"Nope," I said while shifting my sitting position into an Indian Sit.

"He's irritating," Seven glared at me and I glared back, "It's a choice," I said and Six only shook her head in exsaperation, "For the love of gods."

I looked at the both of them, "Okay so what brings you here in my humble tent?" I asked and Six smiled while plopping down on one of my other bean bags and turned to face me, "We're bored so we went to find you."

"I thought you were 'resting'," Seven said and I turned to him, "I was, until you two came," I said snidely.

"Well want us to leave?" Six asked and I laid back on my bean bag, "Nevermind, you're inside now anyways," as soon as I laid down again exhaustion fell unto me like a boulder.

"By the way, how come there are these bean bags in the tents?" Seven asked while sitting on the other bean bag. I shrugged, "Stole them, you wouldn't be shocked how many bean bags there are in the empousai's lairs," I said.

"Of course, those preppy trying-hard vampires," Six mumbled and Seven frowned, "I kinda wish we'd not see another one of those again."

"Tough luck, you'll see more and other horrid monsters," I mumbled while resting my head over my arms and I yawning, "Well I'm still tired, I'm gonna snoze," I mumbled.

"Oh okay," Six said and I turned to the side, closing my eyes, "Just don't be too loud while I'm sleeping," I mumbled before I went to sleep.

.: Six's P.o.V. :.
.: Third Person :.

"Mono?" Six called but Mono stayed silent, before light snores came out from the boy. Seven rose his eyebrows, "Wow, gotta find me a talent like that. Not everyone can sleep that quickly," he noted.

"Shush, Mono's sleeping," Six whispered while lying on the bean bag. She looked over to Mono who was knocked out cold, probably transforming to tons of animals was tiring in some way. Six was about to relax and probably rest from all the wheck they've been through when suddenly there was sound from the outside of the tent. It sounded like someone falling from something high and Six perked up.

"Six? What's wrong?" Seven asked once he noticed Six sit upstraight. Six furrowed her brows and stood up, "Nothing, I'm just gonna go look around," she lied before heading out.

"Huh? Okay then," Seven said as he watched Six go.

Six headed outside and saw the kids still doing their regular duties. Five seemed to have left already, probably to check on Two. Six pursed her lips, she must've imagined what she heard.

She was about to head back inside when she saw a tiny leafy wing poke out from the one of the tent. Six rose her eyebrow and slowly crept to the edge to see Apples who was rubbing his head. He probably fell from the tent.

"Oh hey there," Six said while slouching down to the karpos's height. Apples fluttered his wings nervously while looking around, "Apples," he whimpered.

"What's wrong Apples?" She asked and Apples turned around, running into one of the nearby vents. He stopped at the mouth of the vent and turned to Six, motioning her to come, "Apples..." he mumbled.

Six was skeptical at first, walking up to the karpos slowly. Apples frowned and did the hand motions again, "Apples!" He said silently but urgently.

"Alright alright I'm coming," Six mumbled while picking up her pace, Apples fluttered his leafy wings happily before turning and walking deeper into the vent with Six following behind.

"Where are we going?" She asked while pulling out her lighter and turning it on when the vent got darker. She still asked even if she knows that karpos would just answer her with: "Apples."

"Okay, we're going to apples, whatever that is," she mumbled, "There's no point for me asking why you're not with Five, right?" She asked the karpos and Apples nodded.

Apples walked on to a vent end which split into two and went to the left, Six followed until Apples stopped and fluttered their wings in agitation. "Apples!" He called.

"Apples, who are you calling?..." Six said, suddenly ready to run if Apples, the ever so sweet karpos, was actually leading her into a trap. There was heavy footsteps before something went out from the shadows. Literally.

Forming out of the shadows was a small hellhound, and by small, it would've been the size of a small car. Six stepped back and turned to Apples, who was grinning.

"Apples!" They greeted happily as the hellhound suddenly ran up and pounched on the karpos, giving it slimy kisses. Six's jaw dropped, "What the heck, Apples?!" She shouted.

The hellhound perked up to Six and her face grimmed. The hellhound looked at her with its red glowing eyes while it's tounge stook out playfully. Six took a cautious step back.

WRUF!

The hellhound suddenly pounced on Six and she screamed, ready for the dog to maul her to death but it started licking her face.

"What?! Let me go! No! Stop that!" Six started giggling as the hellhound continued to give her slobbery kisses, their tail wagging happily. Apples just stood by grinning, his pointy teeth blaring.

"Tiberius! Stop that!"

The hellhound stopped licking Six when the voice echoes through the darkness and they stepped back, letting Six stand up. Six sat up straight and rose an eyebrow, "Tiberius?"

"The hellhound," the same voice said behind Six and she turned behind to see a girl about her age. Her whole body and clothes were the color of ash. Six jolted back in shock, "You're... you're a shadow kid! And why the Hades do you almost look like me?"

The shadow girl only smiled sheepishly, "I'm Shadow Six..."

Six eyes widned, clearly it was coincident that this shadow child was named with the same number as her with Shadow. Shadow Six looked at her, then continued talking when Six didn't respond, "I'm a part shadow child and part god... And to the reason why we look the same..."

==================

.: Seven's P.o.V. :.
.: Third Person :.

It seemed like hours when Six went out the tent. Seven waited for Six to come back, but the longer she was gone the more curious Seven got. He was a bit tired using his powers before, but his curiousity kept him awake.

Should he have went with her in the first place? What was she doing anyways? Mono was still resting and Seven thought otherwise to wake him up, maybe he would turn to a snake and strangle Seven's neck... Or turn to a stag and impale him with his antlers.

Seven stood up from the bean bag and peeked out the tent, looking around the camp to see the kids doing their regular thing. Well, except for Five running around worriedly.

"Apples?! Where are you?!" He called out and Seven stepped out the tent. Five didn't see him and he bumped into Seven, stumbling down to the ground.

"Hey, you okay?" Seven asked while holding out for Five, Five's lips trembled as he accepted Seven's offer and he helped him up. Five started hiccuping and he wiped his eyes, "I... I... Apples is gone!" He said.

Seven crouched down to Five's height, "Hey, maybe it's normal for that... uhm... Karpos to disappear," he said and Five shook his head, "Apples would not disappear for no reason. He would tell me in his Apples way," he said.

"Where did you last saw him?" Seven asked and Five wiped his eyes, "Heading here to these tents, he even seemed agitated," he said, "What if he saw something and went to double check, and now he is gone?!" He sobbed.

"You seemed very close to Apples," Seven pointed out and Five nodded, "I haven't told you, but Apples just showed out of nowhere when I was nearly caught by the Janitor, but I'm not good a fighting and he protected me up until now."

"I'll help you find him," Seven smiled, Five beamed and hugged Seven, "Thank you!"

Seven put the throught of where Six might be away for a moment, probably she was having another walk around the Hideout. Five seems so sad that Apples was lost and it was jabbing Seven's heartstrings seeing this precious little child crying over a karpos he treats like his pet.

"Ugh, didn't I tell you not to be too loud?" Mono growled as his head peeked out the tent. Seven snapped his fingers while turning to Mono, "Good timing Mono! Turn to a canine and find Apples's scent."

"What?" Mono grumbled as Seven pulled him out, "Turn to a canine."

"Apples is lost. Please he us find him," Five whimpered while looking at Mono with puppy eyes. Seven doesn't know what Mono's reaction would be but he sighed, "You and your puppy eyes. Fine," he said while turning to a wolf.

He sniffed and started walking into a vent, Five and Seven followed behind. Seven pulled out his flashlight and lit the way. Suddenly Mono perked up and barked at them in urgency before running away.

"Woah! Wait up Mono!" Seven called as he and Five picked up the pace.

WRUF!!!

Seven froze when he realizing that bark. It reminded him of his encounter with Six and the hellhound that showed up, nearly attacking them.

"Stop!" Six's voice called out, Seven's eyes widened. She was being attack by a hellhound all this time?! But... why does she sound happy?

Seven ran faster he caught up with Mono, they took a left turn in the vent and saw on the other side.

A hellhound licking Six's face off as Six giggled, patting the hound's head and trying to pull them away from her form. Apples was also there, being held by shadow child, both watching amusingly.

"What the..."

"Who the Hades are you?!" Mono finished. Five showed up a few moments panting, "Why did you run so... fast..."

"Oh, hey Mono! Seven! Meet Tiberius and Shadow Six!"

"Shadow Six?" Seven repeated.

"Hi," Shadow Six smiled while Apples grinned, "Apples!"
