Thalia's tree

I scale Halfblood Hill, aiming to go to the great pine I had seen at my arrival to Camp.
A soft wind was breathing around me, making my long brown-black hair fly. I finally arrive under the tree, and immediately backed away.
A giant dragon was wrapped around it.
But then I recognized Peleus, the dragon. I shyly stroked it, but backed away again.

Abby walked up to Thalia's tree and petted Peleus. "Hi," she says to a girl that walked in.

OOC: Didn't they say in the rules a post must be at least 3 sentences long?

BIC:
- Hello, I say and frown. How come your hair's black and red?

She was quite pretty, and I noticed we quite looked like each other.

- Who's your godly parent? I asked, forgetting my previous question.

"I don't know why my hair is black and red," Abby replied. "I'm Abby Black, Daughter of Hades," she said and sighed. She looked at the girl "And you are?" she asked.

I nodded in respect.

- Daughter of Hades, I said respectfully. I am Morgan, daughter of Hecate. People call me Morgan le Fay.

"Nice to meet you," Abby says to Morgan. She backed away 7 inches from from the dragon and sat down.

Aramis walked up the hill to see two girls there, but ignored them nonetheless. He quietly looked over the hill, wanting something to do, and hoping for a monster attack or something. Unfortunately, the fields beyond the hill were just plain normal. Aramis looked over at Peleus, who seemed quite content at the moment.

"The name's Aramis, son of Gaea." He told to the two girls, still looking hopeful out in the distance.

"Abby Black, Daughter of Hades," she said getting up. She rubbed Peleus's head. "Nice to meet you Aramis," she said looking at the dragon.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 6:10 pm

Aramis nodded his head in acknowledgement to Abby. Aramis walked over to the dragon and stroked it, though he rolled his eyes knowing he should actually speak to the girls.

"How are you?" He asked them, though he personally couldn't care how they were doing. Why should he? They were just random people. One child of Hades and the other he didn't know. Big whoop.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 6:16 pm

Abby looked at him "Do you really care?" she asked. She looked at Morgan then back at Aramis. She petted Peleus What a nice dragon. she thought.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 7:03 pm

"Of course," He lied. He just wanted something to do today, and it looked like talking to these people was the only thing helping him. The dragon looked like it was enjoying Abby's attention.

"A daughter of Hades, huh? Have you met your dad before?" He inquired. Aramis was just trying to pass time, anything would do, really.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 7:32 pm

Abby studied him "No, I have never met my dad," she admitted. "And I'm doing good, you?" she asked Aramis.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 7:50 pm

"I'm horridly bored. No one wants to fight and I already did a couple of rounds on the rock climbing wall." He answered, sighing. He ran his hands through his hair and sat down next to the tree, close to Peleus.

"I would ask you guys if you fight, but that would be a waste," He chuckled. "I could probably beat you both blindfolded." Aramis smiled, shaking his head. He had no clue what to do, usually there were people to challenge. He hated fighting the dummies because they didn't fight back at all.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 7:56 pm

"Excuse me!" Abby yelled at him. "A waste of time!?!" she asked, she was clearly mad. She looked at him she tapped Peleus on the head, trying to calm herself.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 8:04 pm

"You heard me right," Aramis smirked, hoping this would turn out the way he hoped for it to. He relaxed on the tree as if sleeping under it. "Are you going to do something or just repeat what I just said in a louder tone?" He smiled wide now. Perhaps he could get a easy fight out of the girl. If he did he would have to make sure he didn't beat her too bad, that is unless she wants to wake up horribly sore the next day.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 8:15 pm

Abby looked at him she went for her sword "Are you asking for a fight?" she asked. She kept looking at him, she looked down at Peleus. She grinned and looked back up a Aramis.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 9:25 pm

"I would expect any average human being to assume that, but then again I can't say you look to have an average IQ. It's probably 50 or something." He laughed, still eyes closed relaxing on the tree. He could hear Peleus breathing. He assumed the dragon knew what was going on, for some reason. It just seemed to know.

"Are you ready to stop asking the obvious now?" He asked, smirking. He assumed she would go for a surprise hit, in which case he was ready to jump up and take his sword out with swiftness at the first sound of stepping on the grass.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Sun Mar 25, 2012 9:29 pm

Wait, if he is a son of Gaea can't he sence if I walked around? Abby thought to herself. She stepped back and she pulled out her sword. She looked at Peleus.

OOC: Is it me or is Aramis slightly copying Isana? XD

BIC: I had heard the conversation, thought looking at the sun. But he had insulted me by saying I wasn't worth a fight.
I walked up to him and took a handful of hair and pushed his head back.

- Know what, little boy? I asked him, my face close to his. I am Spartan. Ever heard of Thermoplyae before? Three hundred Spartans against one million Persians. The Persians barely won.

I bared my teeth, threatening.

- You want a fight, baby? Then, molôn labe!

I pushed him back again, took out my four-colour-ballpoint pen, Apokryphos and pressed the blue colour, stroking at the same time my leather bracelet on my left arm.
My sword and spartan shield unfolded.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Mon Mar 26, 2012 5:33 pm

OOC: I guess I never realized it, but, yeah, I guess so. Although I envisioned Aramis to be somewhat of an a** anyway.
"Ah! A real challenger!" Aramis smiled, being surprised that a girl that looked like she could hold a shield right. He got up and stretched, knowing this would be short, but interesting.

"Don't fool yourself, though. Notice the whole army were males. I can see why they didn't use female soldiers, you can barely hold that sword," He pointed and laughed. He lazily took out his claymore and held it menacingly with both hands.

"Though, since you're so fool-hearty, why don't you make the first move?"Aramis suggested. He knew anger blinded people from logic, in which would be this girl's failure.

- Since you seem to be knowing alot about History, let me teach you Spartan girls were trained like boys. And so I might just beat you, got it, girlie?

I raised an eyebrow at him, pushed his head back with the hair I was holding, and, without letting him any time to react, I punched him with my shield and aimed a blow at his neck.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Tue Mar 27, 2012 5:09 pm

Aramis very quickly recovered from the shield bash, and before the sword had reached his neck he parried it away with relative ease.

"I highly doubt you can beat me. In fact, I know you can't." He sneered to her. He would attack her harshly, for her to know the power he had, but not kill her, no. Just bloody her up a bit. After all, she did call him 'girlie'. She would need to pay for that.

Aramis, to make this girl more mad, acted like he was yawning.

"Let's get a move on, shall we?" He asked, like he was about to do chores or something. He still kept a very discrete eye on the other girl, who would probably try and help this one.

I realized he was trying to get me angry. And he was succeeding.

- Yeah, get your fat *ss moving, I snarled. 'Bit of exercise would do you good.

My shield raised, I waited for his blow.

Subject: Re: Thalia's tree Tue Mar 27, 2012 6:32 pm

Aramis smiled at her. "Oh! You wanted me to make the first move. Well, alright." He said, waving his hand sleepily.

Aramis, through his years of experience, knew that hitting the shield from an underhanded strike gave you more time to make a move. It was a simple tactic that most didn't know, and yet it seemed so obvious for Aramis.

With a very quick strike, he hit the shield upwards, it being at her shoulder now. He quickly followed up with a small cut at her waist.

"Are we seriously fighting right now? I can't tell, you're starting to bore me." He told her, bringing his sword swiftly by his side to defend himself, he knew she would be lashing out on him with all her might, what little might that was. He was also ready to trip her with his powers. That would be funny. He noticed an eagle flying above, seemingly towards the strawberry fields, but ignored it.

Abby lowered her sword and gave the dragon something. The dragon sniffed Abby's hand then looked at Aramis. "Take it I insist," Abby tells the dragon. The dragon eats a treat from Abby's hand she looked at Aramis. "Now don't be calling me weak or wait and see what I actually can do," she says and glares at Aramis for a second then look at the dragon.
