Asteria was standing in the corner of Hermes cabin - being the daughter of Hermes himself caused people to treat her differently with Glory

Her train of thought suddenly ended "Move" Luke Castellan her brother shoved her to the side "Chiron is coming to our cabin" he told her

"Is that why you came in such a rush Luke?" She questioned taking in her brothers messy appearance "Yes unless you wanna know what i was doing stop asking questions"

"Fair point" She mumbled not wanting to know anything her brother had been up to

"Everyone your attention please" Chiron's voice echoed loudly through the cabin "This is Percy Jackson" Asteria's attention turned towards the boy

"Woah" She mumbled as her Luke elbowed her to be quiet "I trust you will see to whatever he needs" Chiron spoke once more before exiting the cabin

"Should we introduce ourselves" Asteria suggested she only received a shrug from her brother who was talking to his friends

"That's the kid. I think he's the one who killed the Minotaur" One of Luke's friends said as she followed her brother

"Look if you want to give me a hard time, just do it tomorrow" Percy regarded them as his eye's fell onto Asteria's who only gave him a smile

"Heard what happened on the hill, Just wanted to say im really sorry" Asteria snorted at her brother it was clear he was only pretending to be nice

Her brother and his group walked away after introducing themselves, she stood there awkwardly
"Hey, percy right?" She spoke catch the boys attention as he nodded "Im Asteria Castellan"

"Sorry im not really good at introductions" He told her as she raised an eyebrow "I can show you around later if you'd like? Im sure Grover hasn't showed you yet"

He only nodded and started walking with her "How do you know Grover if you don't mind me asking" He turned to look at her

"Grovers been around camp before, we became friends" Percy's face looked almost relived hearing that they where only friends "I'll let you get some sleep you'll need it for later" She told him as he walked towards his bed

"Already becoming friends with him?" Luke questioned her "Yeah" She mumbled watching the boy from afar "Good." He stated before walking away

Percy didn't last long being asleep as he abruptly woke up, searching around the cabin which was all empty besides the group of teens

Everyone turned their heads "You okay?" Luke was the first to speak "Super" Percy got of his sleeping bag "It happens" Asteria added talking about the way he suddenly woke up it was obvious the boy had a nightmare "We all have them intense, recurring nightmares, That's normal"

"Some have them more than others"

"Demigods just process reality differently than humans do" Luke continued as Percys eyes lit up with curiosity "So are you also- Do you also know who your-" Percy was cutoff

"Are we nclaimed?" Asteria finished what Percy was meaning to say "No, Hermes is our father" Luke admitted pointed at himself and Asteria

Percys eyes widen "It dosent mean much" Asteria mumbled loud enough for them to hear

"But the sooner you stop worrying about that you can enjoy what this place offers Glory" Luke cocked his head to the side signaling for them to follow

Asteria followed behind as Luke continued with his stupid Glory talk - she's heard him repeat it so many times she almost had it memorized

Asteria noticed Clarisse group before quickly moving to the side "And they think twice before messing with you" Was the last thing Luke said before Percy fell to the ground "How original Clarisse" Asteria told her before rolling her eyes

"Knock it off, it's his first day" Luke stood up for Percy which shocked Asteria - Luke had never acted like this especially not infront of Clarisse

"If you want attention dummy, you better be ready for it when it comes" Clarisse told him before scaring him "Gosh they always have something to say"

"Sorry for the way Clarisse acted, those are Ares kids"

Even though Clarisse and many other children disliked the boy already, Asteria didn't understand why. It wasn't at all his fault. He didn't deserve to be treated like an outsider when he didn't have any control over what happened with the Minotaur.
