I sat on the shore of the lake. I watched the waves lap at the shore. The sound of the lake was soothing. It calmed me down a little.
Shade was back. And there was something wrong with him. He always seemed ready to snap. And how he had tried to punch Terry...
I sighed. Gods, I wished Gaia was never returning to power. I just wish that it was normal. As normal as a world with demigods can get. Just the killing monsters, monsters killing demigods thing. Like that normal.
But now that you've added Gaia to the equation, the world is falling apart. Hmm, what to do?

Castor trudged beside the lake, hands in pockets, eyes on the ground. His gray eyes never strayed from his feet. But once he looked up, he noticed a girl. He moved some stray hair out of his face and approached her. "Hello." He called, as he walked up to her, his voice quiet.

"Hi," I sighed. I didn't look up to see who it was. I absentmindedly fingered a strand of my curly hair.

(Sorry, should have put "Castor" at the beginning. But it's Castor, not Ethan)
Castor
"I'm Castor, Castor Jones." He said, sitting down beside her.

(lol I modified.)
Caroline
I turned my head to look at him, my green eyes taking in his presence. I pushed some stray hair out of my face. "I'm Caroline. Caroline Miller." I smiled slightly as I used the same tone he had. "Nice to meet you." I shifted so I could sit in a more comfortable position and talk to Castor.
"Who's your godly parent?" My eyes searched his. They were gray. Minerva. I thought. Or maybe he was greek. So that's...Athena, right? I waited for his answer.

Castor smiled at her. "Athena. So...watch'a doing out here?" He wasn't really one to talk, but something about her just seemed different.

I turned my green eyes to the lake again. "Just...thinking. About life." I paused, then smiled. "Gods, that sounded cheesy." I laughed softly. I turned back to him. "What are you doing out here?"

Castor focused on his hands, fiddling with his nails. "I like to get away from it all, you know. Be in my own little world."

My eyes slightly widened with surprise. "Me too." I smiled slightly at him before looking at the lake again. I loved the lake. It was usually calm and peaceful, but when bothered, it could have a mean temper. I thought about that as I pictured the waves thrashing. It was like me. Actually, the lake was a part of me. Water.

"So, who's your parent by the way?" Poseidon, maybe? If not then a minor god of water?

I glanced over again at him. "Neptune. I'm from the Roman camp," I explained.

"Ah." He exclaimed. "You know, this is one of the only times Greeks and Romans have been friendly. I'm mean, you're at our camp."

Carry
"Yeah," I agreed absentmindedly. My gaze turned sharp and focused again. "It doesn't make sense that we haven't known of each other for this long. Then again, we proba bly have, but it was just the mist messing it up."

"I ran into a roman once, a nasty little child of Mars. Tried to kill me." He smiled at the memory replaying in his head.

I raised an eyebrow, slightly amused. "Oh, really? What was their name? I think I might know them."

Castor
"Um, I believe his name was Thomas Williams." Castor replied.

I had on an amused look. "Ah, yes. Tried to beat me up. Failed."
