Crystal sits up straight and glares at Summer, her hair blowing back slightly in the wind that is blowing in through the now-open window. "Go away," she growls.

I shook my head firmly. "There's something going on with you."

The ground shakes and Crystal stands up, her hands clenched in fists at her side. The sunlight shining in her eyes gives them an unnatural glint that makes her look evil. "Nothing is wrong with me," she hisses through clenched teeth. The fact her white blouse was stained in a dark, splattering bloody-crimson paint and streaked with dirt didn't help her angry image. "If you don't leave..." Crystal snarls, leaving her threat to hang in the air. Her black skirt was torn at the edges and Crystal had unusually long nails. She'd cut them so they had a sharp tip, joking she would poke someone's eye out with them. Crystal unclenched her fists so her green-painted nails glittered enough to catch Summer's eye, no pun intended [if you got it]. [/sup]

(No, I don't get it.)
I stared at Crystal. "Crystal, I-I'm worried about you. Where's the happy, prankster Crystal I know?" I tried to sound jokingly(?).

"She's gone. Went poof. Was never here in the first place, anyway," Crystal adds in a dark tone under her breath. Luckily she was always a good actor. She'd acted like she didn't give a care about the world, giddy, carefree, open, joking. Crystal had never been a giddy, joking girl, even before her mom died. She isn't. She just isn't. [/center]

I looked hurt. "Well, this new Crystal is being totally mean right now by not coming with me to get ice cream. Seriously, what flavor do you want?"

Crystal glares at Summer and snarls in a voice completely unlike her, "Get the hell away from me, Summer! I don't want damned ice cream!"

That made me take a step back. "Jeez," I complained. With one last glance at Crystal, I left the cabin.

{OOC: Ya know, might as well start the plot here. And depending on the outcome of the poll, we can see if Summer follows Crystal here or not. Oh, and she'll get a new name once she leaves CHB, she's 'Krissie' (get it? Crystal, sounds like 'kriss-tal', krissie-ah whatever.}
Crystal flops back in her bed again, glaring at the ceiling. "Thank the gods," she mutters once Summer leaves. Considering Crystal hadn't slept at all last night and it was around 9:30 at night {OOC: Just 'cause it would work right now, 'kay?}, she fell asleep after a few minutes, not even changing out of her dirty white t-shirt and ripped jeans.
{OOC |Blooper|: *frantic search* Where the hell is Gaea? CUT! *woman made of fake earth walks up* Huh? *facepalm* ON SET IN THREE, TWO, ONE-...
*later* CUT! OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD CRYSTAL YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO HIT HER! Well you try it! ARGH! TAKE 23 IN THREE, TWO, ONE-...
*later* CUT! I thought I said Gaea was supposed to come in from the left? That is the left. Crystal's left! *headdesk* Take 56!
*later* CUT! You're not supposed to fricking trip on the way, Gaea! There was a rock- I don't freaking care! Take 102, three, two, one-}
Dream [/size] " Where the Hades am I?" Crystal mutters, darkness swirling around her. " You don't think you have a reason to live..." Crystal whirls around [or she thinks so, at least, considering it's all darkness and she can't even see her hand in front of her], feeling slightly panicked. " Where the hell are you?" she demands. " You want your family back..." Crystal shivers slightly. " Who the hell are you?" she demands this time. " I know how..." Crystal perks up only slightly, and then frowns. " Stop pulling my leg and show yourself!" " Help me...I'll give you back your mom...your family...your sister...your half-siblings...your-" Crystal growls under her breath. " Who are you?" she asks again, but is letting her guard down slightly. " A friend..." " Show yourself." A dark figure merges from the shadows, a woman made of dirt, mud...earth. " Help me rise and I'll give you the dead," she says in an alluring tone. " You can have your mom..." Crystal scowls. " What's the catch?" she asks suspiciously. " What do you want me to do?" The earth-lady smiles. Her eyes are closed, like she's sleeping, which seems weird to Crystal but she doesn't ask. " Leave Camp Half-Blood-" " What?" Crystal interupts. " No way." Earth-lady is still smiling. " You don't have friends," she purrs. " You're out of place and fake your life. You-" " I get it," Crystal says miserably. " Go on." " The Olympians shouldn't rule," earth-woman continues, " They have no right. They overthrew a much better, though much more foolish, ruler. I will see to it they are destroyed. You...will help." For a moment Crystal is horrified. As if sensing the emotion, the woman continues quickly. " What have the gods done for you? I can give you your mother...your family. Will they? Never. I can give you everything you want...if you come..." the voice started to fade away. Crystal makes a hasty desicion on the spot. " I'll help," she blurted. " Where do I go?" Crystal sees the earth-lady smile strangely, and doesn't have time to regret her sudden choice because the woman says, " You'll be a sacrifice...leave the half-bloods and pledge your alience. You'll know what to do...Camp Half-Blood alone will not stop me." Then she laughs softly as if they shared a joke. " Pledge your aliegence to Gaea..."[/i] Crystal sits upright suddenly in her bed. Her eyes are slightly glazed over as she mutters to herself, " Leaving..." She checks the time. 2 in the morning. Not bothering to pack, or even to make her bed, she straightens out her clothing, hair, and silently opens the door. Cleaning harpies were no where to be seen, and Crystal makes her way towards the camp border. Suddenly she ducks behind a bush as a harpy bobbles by, screeching loudly. Her heart pounding, Crystal doesn't make a noise. When she is sure that the harpy is gone, she sneaks towards the border and steps across. Too easy, she thinks, and runs off into the night. {OOC: CUT! That's a wrap, guys. Next scene.}[/center][/sup]

(Check. I renamed the topic 'READ PAGE 6 AND 7' so people wouldn't be bored to death by our rambling conversations.)
