(Continued from 'I''m 'movin in!) Caroline led the way to the arena. There were only a few campers, and most of them were just standing by the sides, watching a pair of demigods fight, so the group would have lots of space to themselves. Caroline whirled around to face them cheerfully. "Okay, so what's the plan?" |

I pulled my hair back into a ponytail and glanced at Jessie. "You said you didn't have a weapon, right? I can go with you, help you pick one out." I offered.

"Well.... What weapons do they have?
Rachel: "Well, pretty much anything. Knives, swords, daggers, guns, bow and arrows... You name it, they probably have it. Except for explosives, I'm not sure they have those.
Jessie: "Ummmm, in that case, I guess I'll go with you."
Rachel: "Okay." I headed in the direction of the forges, and Jessie followed. (Next time someone posts, I'll post pretending we went there cuz I'm too lazy to make a thread, and it would be pretty short even if we did have one, so just for the sake of time, I'm not making one.)

By the clump of trees at the back of the arena, the shade under the trees darkened. Int the next moment, a black haired kid and a taller brown haired boy with glasses tumbled out.
"Wah!"
Shade tumbled from the shadows onto the sandy arena floor. He shook the sand out of his long black bangs. He coughed out the dust, looking back at where Terry had landed. He laughed at the sight of his best friend in a knot.
Terry too lazy to log on and Shade too lazy to log off- The son of Minerva squinted after he landed. He rather disliked the experience of shadow-travel. It made him dizzy. He rubbed is dusty glasses, making sure they were clear so he could see before standing up. He looked at Shade who was laughing at him. Getting annoyed, the taller gray-eyed kid went over and ruffled his hair. It was what Shade hated the most, he knew. "What's so funny now, huh?"

Caroline giggled at Terry and Shade. It was evident that Shade disliked Terry doing that, so that's what Terry did.
"So how are we going to do this? Who's the most patient person here?" Caroline asked. That person would be very likely the most suited for training a new camper.

I jogged back to the arena with Jessie at my heels. "Okay, I think we've got a good weapon for Jessie." I motioned for her to take out her dagger.(I'm waiting for her to get home to post what it looks like.)

Terry grinned pulling his hand away from the other kid's head. He looked down playfully at his friend with his light gray eyes. "I know! Why not have Mr. Shy guy here do it? He's patient. You'll just have to get him to talk."
Shade~ "Since when was I too shy to talk?"
Shade complained, standing up and brushing off his black pants.
"Why don't you do it, Mr. Sunshine?"
Without waiting for an answer, he looked back at Rachle, then Caroline.
"Actually, I think any one of us is fine."

Jessie: I pulled out my dagger. It seemed like the dagger was made for me. It had a silver handle with engravings of Greek letters, which Rachel had told me spelled out, "The fight is never over." I thought it sounded kind of poetic, but Rachel got a faraway look when she told me what it meant. The blade itself was 7 inches long, triangular shaped, and bronze. I looked at the people there. "If you wouldn't mind, I'd like to train with Rachel."
Rachel: I blushed. "Well, I guess I could." I looked around at my friends faces for approval. (OMG ME AND MADDIE BOTH JUST GOT IHOMES FOR HANNUKAH AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!)

Shade shrugged, looking from Rachel to Jessie. Looked like they had become friends.
"I've got no objections."
Terry~The son of Minerva grinned, "I don't see why not. We can split to groups for now. We can all come back for a group training afterwards."

I nodded. "Okay." I said. I turned to Jessie. "Come, on, We've got some work to do." I grinned and walked to a section of the arena no one was in where we could train in peace.

(You mean iPhones?)
Caroline nodded. "Alright. And the three of us will train?" Caroline questioned, looking at Shade and Terry. "Or we all do our own thing?"

(Oh. I feel stupid, xD)
Caroline nodded, taking out her sword, getting in a position so she could see both Shade and Terry out of the corner of her eyes, ready if one of them were to attack. "Alright then."

Terry grinned, his staff spinning out of the air in a golden shimmer. "Shall we start?"

Shade reached out, only one sword appearing. He wasn't going to use both today. The right one which was longer fizzed to life out of smoke. He slid it out of its leather sheathe and he slid it out. The sheathe disappeared.
"Powers?"
He asked, afraid it would be unfair to Terry, but Terry was far more experienced and skilled than either of them.

"I don't really mind if not," Caroline shrugged, glancing at Terry.
While she waited for someone else to say something, Caroline looked over at where Jessie and Rachel were fighting, momentarily distracted.

Terry grinned at the sudden distraction. "Concentrate, my dear." He sang as he sprang forward like a panther, striking out a heavy blow at Caroline, hoping it wasn't too harsh.

Caroline's head suddenly snapped back to face Terry, instinctively raising her sword just in time to stop his staff from coming down on her. Caroline stumbled under the weight, and tripped over her own feet. When she hit the ground, she rolled to the side out of range, then came back up on her feet again.

Shade sprang forward the moment Terry attacked Caroline. Instinctively, he slashed at Terry's back, kind of angry that he had swung out at the daughter of Neptune that hard.
Terry turned around and stopped the attack, sweeping at the kid's legs.

Caroline~ As Terry tried to trip Shade, Caroline sprang back and slashed at Terry's back. She felt kind of bad that it had automatically turned into a two against one.
