I laid in my bed and let only positively in my head. Within minutes, I was fast asleep.
~~~~~~~
At first, I slept peacefully and thought that I would have a clear mind when asleep. But I was wrong.
A huge cell appeared in front of me and ice was spreading through it extending down the hall which was pitch black.
'Oh my god! Is this the future?' I thought starting to get panicked when I saw the ice. I am the only demigod one that can summon ice at this camp, maybe even in the entire world.
Out of no where fire began to blaze through the entire cell but the ice still stood and didn't even come close to melting.
Before I could explore it more I woke up from the alarm clock they installed for me.
I stretched out on the bed and slipped my robe on. I walked to the shower to rinse of and threw on some clothes and ran out the door.
I always liked to have my hair in a Dutch or French braid but could not do it to myself. The only girls I knew who probably could were Aphrodite's daughters.
I knew they probably didn't want anything to do with me, but I can't just stand in the corner and hope they will come to me with open arms.
'Might as well try to make friends now, especially since I might be here for a while.' I thought.
I gently knocked on the door and Mayar opened it. "Hi," she said shakily. "Can I help you with something?"
"I was wondering if you could give me a Dutch braid?" I asked.
She hesitated. "You know what... never mind," I spoke up. "I don't want it make you feel uncomfortable."
I turned around and started to walk away from the cabin starting to regret going up to them.
"I'll braid your hair." Mayar shouted.
"Really? I said turning around. "Thanks!"
I entered the cabin and all the eyes were glued to me. It was very girly like I expected. There was posters of boys hung around everywhere.
Mayar sat me down at a vanity and released my hair form my lose ponytail I put it in. She began braiding and I fidgeted with the necklace I was wearing.
My dad gave it to me when I was young saying it was from my mom. It was a beautiful light blue topaz in closed in silver. I always wore it were ever I went. I would hold it whenever I felt uneasy like I do now having all these eyes piercing through me.
"All done!" Mayar said with a smile.
"That was quick!" I said. I admired the braid she did and it was really good especially considering the amount of time she took to do it.
We both walked out the cabin towards the mess hall.
"Do you want to head to breakfast with me?" I asked.
Taking a deep breath, she said, "Sure."
We started to approach the mess hall, and I remembered all the states I got when I was walking in and out last time. Everyone made me so uncomfortable and I didn't want it do it again.
So instead of going through the main entrance, I asked Mayar if we could go through the back. She nodded knowingly and we entered at the back of the kitchen. We walked through the kitchen to the the table filled with food and grabbed plates to put our food on. I only grabbed a little bit, like I normally do in the mornings.
Mayar directed me to the table were all her friends were sitting and sat down.
"Mayar! What is she doing here?" nodding her head to my direction.
"Come on guys, she is really nice."
"She is on her mom's side. We are not letting the enemy sit with us." Another exclaimed. "Stick to your real friends."
Anger started to boil inside me and ice started to form at the bottom of my feet. Mayar looked up to me with a sympathetic look.
"You know what," she said standing up. "If you are my "real friends" than you would accept my other friends."
"She is your friend?" Another girl asked sarcastically.
"Yes she is. And you should not have a problem with that. She was been treated terribly since she got her, shouldn't we would sympathy.
"Fine." Ella said.
Mayar smoked sitting down and gave me a spot to sit. The girls around me started inspecting my face and playing with my braid making me feel uncomfortable.
"You know you are actually really pretty." One said. "My name is Emma."
"Hi, my name is Rital." I replied.
My eyes grazed over the mess hall and spotted Jake staring at me. When I caught him he put his head down in embarrassment. I was still mad over yesterday, but I didn't want to hold an grudges. 'Just forget about it.' I thought.
All of a sudden a guy ran into the mess hall shouting, " A MESSENGER IS HERE!! HE WILL BE GIVING A QUEST!"
Everyone jumped out of there seats and ran outside to see if they were chosen. I walked calmly to the scene and saw a towering man made of icy clouds.
