Terry slunk into the clearing out of his cabin to take a breath of fresh air. His tall and thin figure was bent busily over a book. He was pale and probably needed some Vitamin D from the sun anyways. He looked up at the sky. It was still dark out. The sun was barely out yet, and the morning was cool and misty. Whatever, it was fine, he didn't need it. He glanced at the watch on his wrist, holding it up and squinting through his glasses. 6:30. He was an early bird as usual. It was a habit of his. His father had always worried about his lack of sleep.
He lowered his wrist and went back to reading the book in his hand. A small hand held encyclopedia on plants. It introduced a large variety of plants. Ones for medical reasons, some with edible parts or fruits, and the deadly poisonous plants. He payed special attention to the deadly ones, memorizing their leaves and colors. Some could be coated on weapons. The best reason was he didn't want to end up consuming one. He put the book down and looked around for a second.
It was really quiet, almost too quiet. This camp was so odd. Usually it was noisy and cheerful in the camps he had gone to. Even in the mornings. But then again, this was a half blood camp. Not one of those mortal camps.

Livvie walk out of her cabin, looking around for anyone she didnt see. Nothing? Strange. she thought walking over to a tree her 'How to speek Greek' book in hand. She sat at the other side and started to read, her stepes had been light and silent. She got lost nto it and didnt notice the other boy at other side of the tree.

He whipped around faster than lightning at the slight feeling of a prescence. He took a step away from the tree, no longer leaning against it as she sat down. He was too jumpy. He needed to stop thinking about it. His brother. Terry wasn't one to start a conversation or talk.
Terry noticed her book. How to speak Greek? What an odd topic. Well, he knew of both camps. The rumors spread quick and his keen ear caught these things. He looked away.

Caroline:
I pushed my cabin door open slowly, trying not to wake anyone else. There was a slight creek, but otherwise silent. I quietly shut the door behind me and sighed. The cool morning air felt good on my face after being in the hot, stuffy room for so long. I felt a cold breeze, and realized I was still wearing my pajamas. Oh, well.

The creak made Terry turn his head in a more calm manner. Ever since he had started living in the woods to recuperate (Read my history if ya wanna know why) he was extra wary of attacks and dangers. He constantly jumped at the slightest noises. At least he had gotten over the habit of morphing out his staff from a noise. He would probably scare the crap out of a camper. It was just another camper he didn't know. So he went back to his book, trying not to notice her pajamas.

Livvie turned her head at the sound of crackling leaves, she nodded in respect at the boy and got back to her book, It was a quit morning she liked it like that, the warm sun on her pretty blond hair. Hearing a creep, her eyes drifted to Carry, Livvie smiled and waved, laughing silenty at her pjs.

He nodded slowly back, not expecting the greeting. He decided to introduce himself, since he was the new kid. "Hi, I'm Terry Coleman, son of Minerva." He said, holing out a hand.

Juno. The queen of gods. The goddess of marriage. Often jealous of her husband- Stop! He felt like a nerd, stopping the sudden flood of knowledge he got. Words sometimes triggered his knowledge to flood whenever he thought of something for too long.
"Noce to meet you." He replied, pulling his hand away, uncomfortable at touch.

Caroline: Crap. They noticed. I waved, and glared at Lizzie. "I know I'm wearing PJs!" I laughed as I came over. What made it worse was that I was wearing pink bunny pajamas. Great.

He turned around with a smile. He was slightly amused with her get-up. It was early in the morning, and not everyone was a morning person. So he should have expected that.

Terry thought for a while, then with a small smile, replied teasingly. "The sky."

He raised an eyebrow and crossed his arms. He looked at her through his glasses. Terry dropped the smile. "Don't I look serious enough to you?" He asked in humor.
He had long cheered up since the soccer match with Zack. He told himself that he would get to know the people, no matter how awkward it was for him. He would be friendly.

"Um, actually, no." I joked. "Actually, you look kind of funny like that."

He uncrossed his arms and smiled. "Thanks. I feel so loved. A Minerva kid that looks silly." He set his book down and looked at her.

He smiled, feeling like a nerd. Embarrassing. "I'm just reading it to get to know some species. It might be useful later on."
He would know how to survive in the woods. And he would know medical herbs. And poisons you could put on weapons.
