Lorelei
I stiffened. "Nothing is wrong. That's just normal me."

"What's wrong? I heard screaming." Ari jogged up to everyone, noticing claycob. She resisted every urge to hug him, "Hey." She simply said, then turning her head to the bloody corpse. "What the- how the- What the fuck?"

Lorelei
I remained silent. I shifted so a layer of my fiery hair covered my face.

Katie stood there, her knife still in her hand. "What the-what-Jacob-but-butyou-" For the moment, that was the only thing that the daughter of Aphrodite could stutter out. HAdn't Jacob left Camp Half-Blood? She'd assumed he'd joined Gaea...but why was he back? Katie thought it was a bit strange, and after she'd regained control of her own voice, Katie managed to form an actual sentence. "Jacob? No way...We thought you joined Gaea or something!"

Lorelei
I remained silent, slowly inching towards the cluster of trees. If I could disappear...

Katie saw Lorelei out of the corner of her eye trying to inch away. She crossed her arms, and without turning, she snapped. "Lorelei! Come back here."

Lorelei
I froze. I didn't move though, and just stood there.

Katie sighed. "I said get back here-well, 'come back here' but it's the same thing-, not 'stay where you are'. Lorelei!"

I looked up at Katie. My eyes were hard.

Claycob stood nervously trying make sense of everything that happened the last 5 minutes. He scratched the back of his head and looked at Lorelei.

Lorelei
I stiffened when I felt someone was watching me. I turned to see Jacob.

Claycob noticed Lorelei watching him. "Hi," he said sheepishly. HHe gave a tiny half-hearted wave to add to the quirkyness.

"I never left! I swear!" he said. Jeez if the people with Gaia wanted to kill him... or the other him...or the original....whatever...

"I got lost in the forest! I'm sorry," he said. He noticed that was a horrible lie, so he said, "I went to visit my father for a while," Shit! he thought. But no one knows he's dead. I never told any one here... Did I?

Katie kept raising her eyebrow higher. Finally she sighed. "Look, Jacob, it's obvious you're lying. Spit the truth out."

I was glad everyone's attention was off me. Mainly.

Jacob sighed. "I'm really a bounty hunter. I was sent to retrieve a rogue demi-god. It took a while. You can't tell anybody. Promise?" It sounded very convincing.

"Bounty hunter? Really, Jacob? You couldn't be a bounty hunter if you tried. And you said your father was dead. You're a terrible lier. Now where the hell were you? You barely said goodbye."
