Henry

I was woken up by Zoe.

After last night I was fast asleep. I decide I would go to sleep rather than be worried about my sister all night.

I felt bad. I knew it wasn't Alex's fault for why mom became abuses. I just got angry.

I groaned and open my eyes slowly only to be meet with round sparkling navy blue ones eyes.

"Wake up Death Boy." she told me punching me in the arm a couple of times since she was getting inpatient.

"Well good morning to you to Zoe." I said with a grin as she rolled her eyes at me.

"Come on we have things to do." she told me as I sat up and asked "Where are the others ?"

"Your sister went inside to get gas, Phoenix thought she would want to tag along and get snacks for the trip. And the others followed."

"So you decide to stay here ?"

"Yeah, I'm not the type to go into a gas station. Decides I'm not really hungry."

"Aw, you decide to come stay with me." I told her as she gave a disgust face and said

"Ew No ! Your one of the least people I sit in a car with."

"Aw thanks for making me feel better about myself Princess." I told her as she gave a glare and said

"Princess ?"

"Yeah, you don't like ?"

Zoe rolled her eyes as she mutter "Don't call me that."

"Alright, Princess." I said with a grin as she punched me in my shoulder.

That's when the others came back. Alex went straight to the gas pump to go ahead and pump gas while I noticed Phoenix's holding two plastic bags as I looked through them seeing things like "Starbursts." "Hot Chips." and Gatorade.

Phoenix had a big grin on her face ready to eat all of them.

Alex's didn't even look my way. Which hurt me a little.

Phoenix got into the back and stood on her knees and said "I brought snacks." as she waved the bags around.

Alex got into the car and said "Actually, I brought those snacks."

"Yeah you brought them but I picked them." as Alex's rolled her eyes and said "Which Phoenix's ended up spending 14 freaky dollars."

"Your hopeless."

"Whatever." Phoenix said pulling out the jumbo bag of Starbursts.

"I can not believe you allow Phoenix to get that big bag of Starbursts." Priscilla told her as she sighed and started the van and said "Me neither."

"Because, she loves me." Phoenix smiled as she unwrapped a yellow starbursts.

Alex rolled her eyes and went back to the road. She didn't speak to me or look my direct.

"She's really mad at me." I thought to myself.

The one thing I hated more than my sister being mad at me was the silent treatment. Alex knew how much I hated it and she was surely using it.

I took in a breath and said "Can you just yell at me already ? You haven't spoke to me since yesterday. And you know I can't stand the silent treatment. Hostile silence is punishment enough."

Alex's took in a breath as she started the van and started driving. {Still not talking to me}

"Please Alex. Look at me you having me begging now if I wasn't in this van I would be on my knees. I'm sorry for what I said yesterday and you know I didn't mean it. I know I deserve that slap, it wasn't your fault for mom's behavior. You can do anything to me, take my stuff away, hit me but please Alex's don't ignore me. Like mom always did."

Alex's eyebrow's dropped as she took in a sigh and said "Henry. I would never hate you. And that slap was out of angry. We both acted petty."

I took in a sigh and asked "So your not mad at me anymore ?"

"Oh, I'm still angry at what you said to me yesterday. I need to work on my temper and I promise to you no matter how many times we fight, no matter how much you make me want to throw you into the Underworld. Your still my little brother no matter what. So I'm forced to love you."

I laughed which is probably the first time I last in weeks.

She smiled at me as Phoenix interrupted and said "Aw, you guys don't hate each other anymore."

"Shut up Tool Girl." Alex said as Phoenix's rolled her eyes at the young daughter of Hades.

Spencer

After my freak accident in the infirmary I went back to how I was.

I changed clothes as Will got back to work in the infirmary while me and Lou Ellen walked back to Cabin 20.

My other siblings were sitting in the main room. The older kids like Quin, Cordelia and Edward were having there mid afternoon classes for all the younger kids the ones that just started getting use to magic.

I was also suppose to be sign a role as a teacher but when Lou Ellen asked me to help out with classes I did what I always did. Tell her to get out of my room. And when she refused I kicked her out. {which is using a telekinesis spell to blast her out}

The others stared at us as I gave them a glare. My other half siblings never saw me. I only came out of my room for Cabin Inspection, Dinner and Breakfast. But when they did see me they just stare at me.

They started to whisper among one another. I used my excellent hearing to listen in on there conversations. "That's Spencer right ?" "She's the most powerful in here." "She looks scary."

I gave a annoyed sigh as Lou Ellen turned to me and said "The least you could do is stick around for classes."

I gave a sarcastic laugh and said "Me, stay around for theses stupid classes. Never." as I walked away from all of them and to my room as I close my door very loudly.

Lou Ellen rolled her eyes and turned to the others and said "Give her time. She'll come around."

"You always say that Lou. She's not like all of us, heck we barely see her." Cordelia said. The young sixteen year old girl was standing with her arms crossed talking to the cabin counselor.

Cordelia herself was very skilled in magic. She could do plenty with magic through not as advance as Spencer. She was nice, kind and very sassy. She had light strawberry blonde hair with green eyes and freckles.

"I know. Spencer's different. She's nice when you get to know her." Lou Ellen told them as Quin said

"And why does she need to take classes anyway ? She's the strongest here."

"That doesn't mean she can't learn." Lou Ellen said as one of the younger kid spoke up and mutter "She seems scary."

Lou Ellen eyes dropped. Spencer could be scary at times. Her moss green eyes could turn into the depths of the Underworld with no mercy or justice. But Spencer wasn't always the dark soul she is now. She was a happy go lucky kid, that had the smile of a princess and had a heart of pure gold. Now she barely smiles and her heart is is pitch black.

"Don't say that Ava. You don't even know her." Lou Ellen said.

"Do you know her more ?" Edward asked.

Lou Ellen sighed and changed the subject "Changing topic. Come on it's time to tech you all about levitation." the kids got cheery when Lou Ellen said that. She leave levitation for last because she knew some kid could struggle with it.

"Spencer learn how to do that when she was 5 right ?" a voice said in the back everyone turned to see a tiny 6 year old girl standing in the back.

Her name was Lily. She was a new comer to Camp. She arrived about a month ago and fit in well with her siblings. She unlike most of her siblings had big bouncy blonde hair and green eyes that shined. She always wore a t-shirt with leggings and a skirt with sneakers. She was a sweetheart and was the kindest.

"Lily. What have I told you about listening to those stories. Nobody can master levitation at such a young age." Cordelia told the young daughter of Hecate.

"But it's true and I know It is." Lily retorted.

"Whatever. And don't even think about asking her." Edward said.

Lou Ellen said. "Everyone wonders about you Spence." she thought to herself.

"Ok back on track. Now let's study levitation." Lou Ellen said to the others.

Priscilla

I was sitting in the back next to Thalia.

I had fallen asleep during the long van ride, while everyone else was wide awake.

Seriously, I couldn't see how they could stay awake for so long.

I also was having girlfriend problem number 8 according to my brand new book "Priscilla's Guide To Having A Boyfriend."

Theses are the others problems.

1. Reed's always in the infirmary

2. I get jealous every time a girl even look in his direction {Mainly the Aphrodite Cabin}

3. He tends to ignore me form time to time

4. I always get a bit anxious when every we kiss in public and it's not more than two seconds, which makes him frustrated

5. Communication

6. Since getting together we do have little arguments

7. Isolation

8. When he doesn't text's me back.

Yeah that's all I've come up with so far. But number eight has to be the worst. I'd text Reed back a couple of minutes ago and when he didn't text me back seconds later I started to panic.

"Oh Gods Priscilla what if he's talking to another girl as we speak ?" I thought to myself.

"Was it my fault ? Did I do something wrong ?"

"Please Aphrodite Send me a Sign !"

I groaned while in the back. I looked like a slob which wasn't usual for me.

I would currently be dressed in a nice fresh set of clothes with my makeup done and my hair curled but I was the total opposite.

I was in the back with my hair tied up in a messy bun while I was wearing white socks with gray sweatpants on with a white cropped shirt as I had my hood up as I just stare at my phone waiting for Reed to text's me back.

Zoe {her being my best friend in all} noticed me not saying anything in a couple of hours so she decided to make sure I was ok.

"You ok P ?" she asked me noticing how messy I looked.

I rose my head up at her and said "I'm good."

"Then why do you look like a bum ?" Phoenix asked me as I rolled my eyes at her and took my hood off as I curled into a ball and said "I'm waiting for Reed to text me back." as Alex looked in the rear view mirror and asked

"Your just going to wait ? And what if he doesn't text back."

"Oh trust me, he will text me back." I told them. My eyes had become bright red from staring at my phone all morning.

"Your torturing yourself." Zoe told me as I rolled my eyes as I felt my phone vibrated as I hurried and look down at my phone completely ignoring the others.

~Them Texting ~

Sunshine : Oops, sorry was getting really busy in the infirmary baby, Anyway how's the quest going ? 🙃 

Me : It's going fine don't worry. I just was getting worry since it was taken you so long to text me back 😐

Sunshine : I know and I said I was sorry 😶

Me : Yeah whatever, I'll text you later 🙄

Sunshine: Is everything ok ? Did I do something wrong ? 🤨

Me : Nope, Nothing 🙎‍♀️

Sunshine : Ok, seems like your upset I'll text you in a bit bye 👋

~Texting Over~

I threw my phone across the van it bumping into other stuff causing the the others turned to me.

I sat in the back and beginning to pant with my lips poked out as I put my hood back over myself.

I groaned loud as small tears started to come down my eyes as I wiped them away quickly.

I blew out my cheeks as I folded my knees as Zoe came towards me.

She sat right next to me and sighed. "Hey did you guys get into a argument ?" she asked me.

I sighed as I laugh and said with a quaver "No ! It's just like he oblivious doesn't see that I'm upset."

"P, that's usual when people get together. Don't you think ?"

I groaned and laid down on the van's ground as I stuffed my face into the carpet as I mutter "I just want to stay here."

"That's why your not doing." Zoe told me as she lifted me up as I groaned as I faced her and said "But Z !"

"No but, just because you and Reed aren't getting along that doesn't mean we can't get over this."

"Decides P don't you think your acting a bit off ?"

"What do you mean ?" I asked her as she sighed and said "Well first off you didn't eat breakfast, and second off P you haven't showered." as I rose my eyes large as I mutter "I haven't"

Zoe nodded as I removed my hood as I touch my hair. It was Greasy.

"Oh Styx." I swore as I grumbled "I probably smell like Medusa's Breath"

Zoe laughed as she gave a quiet nod as I rose up and said "I need to shower."

"Yeah, You really need to how about we have go out ?"

"What does thy mean ?" Leona said as Zoe rose up and said "Let's go shopping."

My eyes went wide as I smiled and said "Shopping Really ? Z but you hate shopping."

"I do, but you need to treat yourself. And decide no thinking about Reed." Zoe told me grasping my hands.

"Fine." I told her as she smiled and said "Come on guys let go treat our self."

"And how we have no money ?" as I smirked as I noticed Alex pull out a black card.

"You have money ?" Priscilla asked her as she said "Yeah, mom's card the last thing I grabbed before I ran away."

"How munch moneys on there ?" Henry asked her as she said "1 million dollars."

All our eyes went large as Phoenix said "Well what are we waiting for let's go shopping !"
