Zoe

"Man. Zoe, I surprise by all these bruises that Empousa gave you" Will told me as he looked at all the bruises on my back. 

After Chiron explained things to me and Priscilla I decide to get my bruises check out by Will.

I was by myself  in the infirmary it was just me and Will. After explaining why the "Empousa" attacked me he decided to check me out.

"They look old Zoe." Will told me as he picked up my arm.

I was in nothing but my gray bra and pants since he needed to see them up close. I took off my shirt and my t-shirt as Will just stared at me.

"Do they hurt ?" Will asked me as he saw that they were bright purple.

"Not a lot." I told him as he faced me as he wrote something down on his clipboard.

"I'd say you've just gotten these." Will told me as I rose my eyes at him "Will I told you the Empousa gave me these."

"The Empousa powers are fire. So you would have burn marks." Will told me as he crossed his arms as I blew out my cheeks.

"Zoe, how did you really get these bruises ?" Will asked me.

"It's really none of your concern." I told him with attitude as he looked at me his dark navy blue eyes filled with concern as he sighed and said "Zoe. As a doctor and your friend. I just want to know if your ok or not."

I wanted to tell Will so badly about my side missions and how they were killing me.

Once Will knew I wasn't saying anything to him he sighed and said "Well, when the last time you've eaten ?"

I faced him and said "About two hours ago."

He wrote that down as he asked the next questions "Anymore pains ?"

I sat up and said "Well my head been killing me, my stomach been doing back flips and not to mention back pains."

"How would describe the pain 1-10 ?"

"Probably good solid 8." he wrote that down as he went into the back.  

Will came back a couple of minutes later with an ice pack and some pills with water.

Will then took the ice pack and said "This is going to be cold so just to tell you ahead of time." 

He put the ice pack onto my back as it sent a chill through my spine because of its coldest.

"Warned you." he told me as I gave a mini laugh.

After a couple of hours of medical treatment I ended up with both of my arms warped, some pills, and an icy cold back.

"Alright that should do it. Those bruises should start to heal over time and theses pills should help with your back pains, headaches and stomach pains." as I took it from him.

"Also, drink this." as he handed me some nectar to drink.

I drank some of the nectar as I swallowed as he faced me "Better ?" as I nodded.

"Ok so in a couple of days you should feel better." Will told me as I began to put my hoodie back on as he turned to me and said "You ok right Zoe ?"

"Yea, I'm fine Will. Sorry for get sassy with you by the way."

Will chuckled and smiled "It's fine really Zoe. I don't mind. I mean you've been through a lot. Over the last month."

I smiled as I turned to him and said "I'll be fine... because I'm a Daughter Of Zeus." as tears shimmered in my eyes as Will came over and hugged me...

Zoe

After a couple of hours getting settled in. I changed my clothes from my school clothes to my Camp clothes.

I put my necklace onto my neck which is when I heard a knock on my cabin door.

"The Heck ?" I muttered as I walked towards the door guessing it was either Priscilla or Phoenix but no it was someone I would have never guessed.

"Well, Well" I said leaning on the wall as I added "Look who it is....."

~~~~~

Priscilla

"Ok, let's start with some archery drills." Chiron said to us as we drew our bows.

I had to say I wasn't a god at archery but I wasn't the worst.

I had archery class with Chiron along with some other campers.

Zoe told me she was going to take a nap for a while which is why she didn't joined me.

I of course respected that. She is my best friend after all.

"Ok, make sure you do not shoot upward. We don't need any campers eyes poked out." Chiron said as I drew back my arm along with the other campers as Chiron said "Shoot !"

All our arrows shoot at the same time as each one landed in different places.

"Excellent." Chiron told us as he nodded at me and smiled.

I smiled back as he said "Now, let's do it again."

I drew back my hand again ready to shoot entail I heard someone voice "Don't send your arm to back. It's gonna effect your arrows's range."

I looked up only to see it was Reed Dorian. He was standing next to me as he smiled at me.

I didn't do anything but stared at him.

He had straight short dark brown hair along with straight teeth that hides a heartwarming smile. He was above average height and had a athletic physique. 

"H-Hi" I stuttered as he asked "How ya doing Little Mermaid ?" as I rolled my eyes and said "Good, Sunshine."

He smirked at me as I smirked back.

"Priscilla, right ?"

"Yep. Daughter of Poseidon." she told him.

"Seems nice being a child of the big three." he said as I laughed and said "Believe me it's not."

I blushed. He was trying to started conversation with me.

I laughed trying to be nice as he looked at me and said "Priscilla your probably one of the most nicest girl I've ever met." 

I wasn't paying attention when I fired my arrow as I shoot as It slide one inch from Chiron's eyes.

Me and Reed just stood there with our eyes wide open as Chiron drew in a long sigh as he said "Priscilla. What was the first rule well all discussion ?"

"Make sure you don't shoot upwards."

"And ?"

"Never just aim."

He nodded as I said "I-I'm sorry Chiron."

"Now, let's get back to our drills." Chiron said as Reed smiled as he went to help out another camper.

I blushed hard as I thought "He's even more cute up close."

I rolled my eyes as I said "Ugh.Focus Priscilla." as I went back to shooting...

Zoe

"Why are you here ?" I asked the person in front of me.

In front of me was Hades. The Greek God of the Underworld. He was standing right in front of me. He had his pale cold skin and to hide himself in the mortal world he was wear a all black suit as I stared at him.

"It's nice to see you again, Zoe Grace." he told me as he lean't himself in.

"Well, just lean't yourself in. I don't care." I said sarcastically as I closed my cabin's door and locked it and closed my curtains.

"I can see you've been under pressure Zoe." Hades told me as he picked up a glass vase as he press his finger onto it causing it to turn to dust and fall to ashes.

"Of course I'm stressed ! I'm been gambling with theses side quests. It's hard to keep secrets from my friends."

"I understand that." He said.

"Obsessively you don't." I told him 

"As if you understand all I'm going through."

"I can sense your emotions Zoe." he told me as I rose a brow as he turned to me.

"As god of the dead. I can feel all the hatred, the fear, the sadness, all your rage-"

"Enough Hades !" I told him as I said "Why are you here, You've didn't say yet"

"Zoe. You've been feeling stress lately. I can tell."

"So what's got the daughter of Zeus all worked up" he asked me as I sighed and crossed my arms and said "I don't want to talk about it."

"You say that, But you know you want to." Hades told me as I rolled my eyes and said "Whatever. Now tell me why your here ?"

"Because. I see how you and Priscilla ran into one of my minions, Gwen ?"

"Yea, Let's just say she didn't make things easy." I said pulling up my selves as I saw the burn marks on my arm.

"She said something about two people name Alex and Henry."

As soon as I said those words. Hades looked surprised and even more worried.

He rushed towards me and said "What did she say about them ?!"

I ran into my wall as I said "Why are they so important to you?" I asked.

He took in a shaky breath as I said "Tell me Hades !"

He turned to me and said "Those two are important to me Grace, I must keep them safe. I own it to their mother."

After saying that his disappeared into darkness as I open my eyes as I noticed he was gone. 

I sighed as I took in a breath and said "He know something about those two."

"I own it to their mother ? Could Hades be...."

I heard a knock on my door as I walked towards it and opened it to only see Phoenix.

"Hey" I told her.

"Hey, were all about to go to dinner thought you would want to join."

"Oh yea. I'm on my way" I told her as she walked away as I looked back to where Hades was standing as I drew in a sigh and went to dinner...
