Thalia's tree

"Aramis was, without a doubt, fighting only to play. You would have known if he was serious if he didn't speak, and had this flash of absolute anger in his eyes. He almost looked like that when he was fighting you, Morgan. I can tell you that you need to work on your skills if you ever want to get to his caliber. Aramis could have handed your butts to you in a nicely wrapped box if he wanted to, and you can trust me on that." He told the girls, trying to say it as nice as he could.

- I don't care about him. He wants to play around with powers? Well, he's gonna have nice dreams this night.

I sat on a rock and looked at the sun. I loved the way its rays where touching my face like hot fingers. Thinking of Océane, my eyes got dreamy and I nearly forgot I was there.
I mean, I didn't really care for either of them. I wondered if I should go. Let the two deal with it alone. I chuckled quietly as I mumbled a Corsican song.

"Nice dreams tonight? What does that-Oh, right. Hecate. Goddess/titaness of nightmares." He answered himself. Abby had spoke and he turned to her.

"So, Abby, do you wish to train, then?" He asked her.

It would be cool to have a pupil under my wing...

But if I have a student, that means I need to have a teacher. I'm not the best. I'm just really good.

Who could train you? We're all campers, not-

Chiron.

That's a...pretty interesting idea. It wouldn't hurt to try.

"If you do, though, it will have to be a different time. Something has come up where I need to work on it now. It was wonderful meeting you both, and I pray I meet you again." He bowed, calling over his eagle and heading to the big house.

I nodded assent, and got up as well.

- I'm leaving, I told her. To my cabin. See you later, perhaps.

I quickly ran down the hill, passed Zack and entered my cabin.

Marianna, covered in dust and dirt, stomped up the hill. She trudged up to the tree, and sat against it, letting the gears cool down. She was burning, it felt. The gears were about to fuse, and the pulleys were already failing. Next time, she wouldn't walk a thousand miles without rests. "Owwww," she mumbled.

Marianna looked up at the boy that just seemed to appear in front of her. "Hello," she said, quietly, in her twinkly voice. G, B, A, she recognised. Thankfully, her body started to cool down, and she was able to move a bit. She wondered what this boy wanted with her. Especially in her unruly state.

"I could use all the help I could get,"Marianna said, smiling a bit. "What's your name?" she asked. "I am Marianna Naranja Tupecul." She was proud of her name, could you tell?

"Di Angelo. That is an amazing name."Marianna said. "Can you tell me where exactly I am?" she asked. She really was lost. She felt like she was in the in the right place, but she wasn't sure.

"Demigod? What's that? I'm sorry if I'm being difficult, but, you must understand?"Marianna said.

Marianna thought about this for a minute. A god... and a human. Maybe she WAS lost. She shook her head. "Thank you for your help," she said, standing slowly. "I think I'm in the wrong place. It was very nice to meet you." [color=#fcfccc]Well, now where does she go?
