Chapter 10 : I'm cold and I'm crying, Life sucks
Once my body warm up i open my eyes to find a thousand campers in orange hoodie looking at me.
I was cold, my hair stuck to my face and i was wrapped with a towel.
I looked up to see Leo, Zoe and Priscilla like me wrapped in towel and hair stuck to their faces.
"So this is the new demigod. Look like she was worth the trouble" A girl said as the girl next to her hit her arm and said
"Drew stop" she was a native american girl with brown choppy and uneven hair eyes that seemed to change color going from brown to blue to green.
"And you are exactly" i said as i rose from the ground.
"Drew Tanaka. Daughter of Aphrodite"
"Good to know" i said with a fake smile as she smile at me to as we rolled our eyes at each other.
"And who are you ?" Drew asked me.
"Phoenix Carson, she the new demigod" Zoe said to her.
"How ironic three new demigod come after a new prophecy" Drew said as Priscilla and Zoe gave her the death glare.
"This is the one. She way over thirteen why hasn't she been claim yet ?" Will wonder.
"Claimed ?" I said as i did a double take and turn to Zoe and Priscilla.
"She new after all" a boy said with oil skin and messy dark hair.
"Jeez, and i still haven't figure out how in the world due you know my name !"
"Phoenix we been knew about you" Priscilla said
"And how ?"
Her and Zoe gave each other looks.
I rolled my eyes.
"Look Whatever. How long do i have to be here" i asked.
The boy studied me as he looked me up and down.
"She look like you a lot Leo"
"I know right" he said as he crossed his arms.
"Look enough about how she looks, i'll be your tour guide of camp and hopefully you'll be claim by dinner" Zoe said.
"And can someone tell me what claim means -?"
Before i could finished my sentence everyone back away from me as i wonder why as i looked up and saw a big red fiery hammer was above my head as i screamed and back away.
"Hephaestus of Course " Zoe mutter.
"You mean Leo's dad !"
"Yes"
"Vulcan" Jason mutter.
What i didn't realize was i was now wearing a rolled up sleeve white shirt with demi shorts and brown suspenders as i had an golden tool belt on my waist and i now smelled of machine oil and smoke.
"Well all hail Phoenix Carson Daughter of Hephaestus God of blacksmith and Fire." a girl with gray eyes said as the campers knelt down.
I smirked. I love feeling special.
"Leo. Show your sister to Cabin 9"
Leo smiled big as he took my hand and pulled me over to the big building up ahead.
Once everyone went back to what they were doing, Priscill and Zoe deiced to take nice hot showers and Leo after getting dry to me he was going to give me a tour of cabin 9, the cabin to the children of Hephaestus, It looked like a giant workshop, I felt at home as people welcomed me with kindness. "See i told you, our siblings are wonderful" as i smiled at Leo which is when people were going back to work. "What do you all work on ?" "Basically a whole bunch of stuff" he told me. "cool" i said as i grabbed a screwdriver. "Your going to love it here" "I think i am to" i told Leo as he nodded as he showed me below to the forge.
Zoe
After swimming in the lake of hypothermia a warm shower was all i needed.
After Phoenix got settle in at Cabin 9, I saw she look happier her shorts were covered in machine oil and she smelled of sweat. Leo and Nyssa talk to her at dinner and help her get use to Cabin 9.
I smiled.
I sat at my dinner table, Alone eating burger and drinking sweet tea as i watch everyone else talk to their siblings and have a good time.
Telling you the truth. I hate being alone. Which is why hanging out with Priscilla made me feel better.
I gave a long sigh as i finished my food and walk over to my cabin.
For a big cabin it was tall and big and cold.
I was alone and with no siblings i had my own bed. Well if you count the giant statue of my dad that look done at me everyday i slept.
I put the blanket over my head and looked at the statue.
A feeling of sadness wash over me.
For some weird reason i didn't feel well.
I didn't get sick often. Neither at Camp. I held my stomach and blenched into my fist as i turned on my side and tried to go to sleep even with the pain i felt.
I closed my eyes and drifted off to sleep.

Priscilla
I woke up early the next morning.
I decided to wash the dye from my hair. Being a blonde was cool for a while but i wanted my old hair back.
I looked into the mirror and saw my newly black hair that bounce with curls.
I changed clothes and put on my half blood t shirt with ripped jeans and a navy blue leather jacket .
I marched to the Zeus cabin where my best friends Zoe lived as i knock on the door and waited for an answer.
The door switch open as i saw Zoe dressed in a camp half blood hoodie and jeans as she look drained and dizzy as her eyes were bright red.
"Hey. You ok ?" i asked as she groaned and rubbed her eyes.
Which i knew wouldn't make anything better.
"Yeah, if you count vomiting all night" she said as she bleached inside her forearm.
"Upset stomach ?"
"Nah."
I put my finger on her neck and on her forehead.
She was warm, really warm, like she was coming down with a fever.
"I think you have a little fever" i suggested.
"Maybe" she said as she cough in her hoodie sleeve.
"Or you just have the stomach flu"
"I hate fever" she sniffled.
I glanced at her. Her nose was red, and her iris was faded.
"You think you can handle breakfast ?" I asked.
She sneezed. "Maybe" as i saw her muscles were tenses up and she breathe heavy.
I got the feeling she was going to pass out.
We made it to the dinning pavilion where we were meet by Nico, Percy, Annabeth, Leo, Jason, Will, Piper, Grover and Phoenix who was dressed in a white crop top shirt, a brown skirt with her brown suspenders and brown shoes that look like ballerina shoes as she was stuff a breakfast omelette down her throat.
"Hey" Will said with a wave as i smiled as i glanced back at Zoe who head stayed down as i grimaced and made our ways towards them as i sat next to Zoe who sat in between me and Will.
"Hey" I said as i summoned a bagel and coffee.
I called down some warm soup for Zoe as the others glanced at her.
"Hey what's up with Zoe" Nico asked stirring his oatmeal that had blackberries in it.
"I think she sick, don't know for sure. She really warm" I said as Will put his finger on her neck and gave the look a doctor gave when there about to give an illness.
"She's high. Her temperature like 105.
"105. Isn't that bad" Leo wonder he chew on his toast.
"Yeah. I would say she had a fever"
"She doesn't look to well" Piper added.
"She really pale" Phoenix added mouth full of breakfast omelette.
" I don't need you guys to tell me how sick i look" She growled.
"Were just trying to help-"
"I don't need your help !" she yelled as the sky flashed with lightning.
We all were silent.
She grunted as she put her head back down.
"Hey Z were sorr-" Jason
She growled louder.
"I'm fine" she hissed.
"You sure" Annabeth asked.
"I don't need your help !" She shouted as i noticed her once faded blue iris were now a blood dark red.
"Z. Your eyes"I noted as i could see all of the other campers looking at her.
Then she begged to shake out of control as she breathe heavy as her vanes glowed a dark black as her eyes turned a dark black as black smoke began to come out of her mouth that smelled like rotten eggs and old garbage as we back away as Chiron came with Rachel as Rachel eyes widened as she said
"No not again. This can't happen not to Zoe either".
Zoe voice darkened as she spoke as we all listen close.
Demigods of Four
Well join together with sorceress of eldest time
To ride the fiery beast
Daughter of Zeus well be take over by darkness
Daughter of Poseidon well become powerless during the fight
Two demigods well arrive during the night
Her breathe rattled as she passed out as me and Jason scoped her up before she went face first into the table as i looked at Rachel who eyes and mouth where hung.
"Rachel what just happen !" I asked as i ran to Zoe side who sat still, cold and shivering.
"That was the Dark Prophecy" Annabeth said
"Zoe spoke it.
"Meaning-" Leo asked
"She can tell prophecy, like me "
"That's not possible"
"Unless" Percy said turning to Chiron
"Her blessing" Grover said as i looked down at Zoe as i noticed she was cold and was giggle as if she was under a trance.
"Zoe" I said shaking her but she just gave a villain worthy giggle.
"What just happen ?" Ivy ask me.
"I don't know" as her necklace glow but a blood red.
"Please hear me Z"
She started to twitch as Rachel said
"The Dark Oracle, it's return"
