(( Well Iced... It should have been in your app. You will have to Rp your claiming whenever you want. ))

Axel looks down. "A failed suicide attempt."

~

Skale nods slowly and ruffles his hair a bit in thought. "Well... Sometimes you don't get what you wish for. I was lucky, I am the son of the one the strongest gods, but people look up to me... I hate letting people down or letting them get hurt. Its a terrible feeling..."

Yuuki smiles. "Its alright man.... Your friends aren't dead, you did good." Yuuki turns ti Tyril and cannot help it, but his smile widens. "Its always good to have someone who is happy that they are a demigod. I was happy myself and Skale was fine with it too... Its sad to see others who hate it,

"What's up Darren?" Myrine says curiously.

I reach out and touch axels shoulder,"thanks for everything. You don't have to tell me but if you want, I can be a good listener," I pull back and lean against the trunk of the tree.

"Yeah.I think we're all pretty lucky.I mean,our parents are gods..I don't know why they'd hate it." Tyril shrugs and looks at all the cabins "So,this place is the only safe place for demigods?"

Axel thinks for a second and decides to talk. "Well... Up until the age of thirteen I was happy, but I always dressed darker than other kids my age. Black, grey, sometimes a navy color, I just did it. I felt compelled to and I never knew my mother... People thought I was a cursed child. I grew up in a rather religious community." He pauses and takes a deep breath. "As I got older, around the age of twelve and thirteen, I began to get bullied by those who grew up knowing me as cursed, or an evil devil child. The other kids said I killed my mother, they called me a freak and I eventually gave in. One night I climbed to the top of our city hall and threw myself from the building. Before I hit, I felt an overwhelmingly powerful presence and when I opened my eyes, I was in my bedroom. As I looked around, I found my mother... I was so surprised, but I was also very happy. She told me who I was, who she was and I couldn't be prouder... My beautiful mother Nyx. She told me of this place and I came here, hoping to find those who would accept me, but I was the only one, the only child of Nyx for a few years. Eventually though, others came and realized I was truly home." Axel cannot stop himself from telling the story, he just needed to share with someone and it made him happier. He took another deep breath and it felt as if a ton of weight was lifted from his shoulders.

Skale and Yuuki nod simultaneously.

"These powers are awesome..." Skale says as the water nearby begins to swirl into a mini whirlpool. Yuuki nods to that too and his hands ignite with fire. "I love being here and defending my friends.... So.... What is your name?"

"I don't think we asked her that... Did we?" Yuuki shrugs answering his own question.

Myrine looks at Darren slightly confused. Wow I got picked. "Yeah of course I'll go." Myrine exclaims. "When are we leaving? And who else is going?" Myrine had so many questions. He tightens his axe on his belt and adjusts his shield. I'm ready.

Myrine pauses and thinks for a second. "It's not like I have a choice on going anyway now do I?" Myrine says slightly grinning. "It's better to go into a situation ready, then scared." Myrine gets up and starts walking out of the arena. "Just tell me when you're ready to go." He says at the bottom of the bleachers.

"Nice power."Tyril smiles "And the names Tyril.Guessing you're a Hephaestus kid,Yuuki?"

"You know, I found this out only recently as well. My dad seemed to have left me to the world, my family died to the point where all I had was my twin, she's gone, now I have only my dad. He got me here to my other family. Now I don't want to have to be the one that everyone has to help and take care off. I want to be the helper and saver for a change." I look at him, "bullies are stupid, what you wear shouldn't matter. All that stuff is stupid and I know how you feel a bit."

Axel nods. "Sometimes being the savior or the helper isn't a good idea... Just sitting back and watching is sometimes just as rewarding. Trust me... Enough Olympians do it and most of them are very happy to do it." He leans up against the tree trunk, on the branch besides Syras.

Skale and Yuuki nod once more.

"Love using them... I think its a way to honor my father Poseidon. I am going to the beach... Good luck, or you can come. I don't mind." Skale heads in the direction of the beach, whistling yet another tune from the Little Mermaid.

Yuuki follows him, whistling in sync.

"Yeah I know, but people have died to save me. Have you heard much about the child of shadows recently?" I wonder what the plan for him is other than destroy the item. It can't be that simple.

Tyril nods,and then makes her way to the cabins,admiring each one.As she reaches the Athena cabin,an owl appears over head.Looking up,she swats at it.After a few minutes,the owl disappears and she grins. Tyril runs down to the beach,trying to catch up to Skale and Yuuki while yelling "I got claimed!"

Axel nods his head. "My cabin is well informed on all of the events... I understand what you are saying, but running out to violence is not the answer. It would be better just to hang back. If it was up to me, I'd never fight, but it isn't. I have friends and family I must protect. Something most people don't understand..." Axel shakes his head and stares up at the NIGHT sky.

Skale turns and smiles. "That's great!" He stops and turns completely. "What did you see above your head?"

Yuuki was cut off just as he was about to ask and crosses his arms.

Tyril still smiling replies "An owl.Which god is that?

Yuuki steps forward and holds up a hand. "Shut up Skale..." He turns back to Tyril with a smile. "You are a child of Athena. Congratulations... You are basically the smartest person out of the three of us."

Tyril laughs "Doesn't seem like it.Well,who else is an Athena kid?I'd like to meet some of my step brothers and sisters."

I smile sadly and realize he's right. I shouldn't want to risk my life for a chance to be even with people, I'll just watch and wait from now on until I see how people need help. "Axel, thanks, you really helped clear my head about everything. I really am not the huge fighter as much as others, I'd rather be a peace keeper now I guess. I'll let you guys talk, if you need me I'm gonna go find another tree to practice shooting from up here, I think it would be good. Later Darren," I say jumping from the tree and walk slowly looking for a good tree.

Axel turns to Darren and raises an eyebrow. He drops down from the tree and leans up against it while studying the face of the boy, Darren, before him. "What is it?" He asks with a neutral expression.

Skale thinks for a few minutes. "Well... They are actually your half brothers and sisters. They all have your moms blood, just not your fathers." He smiles and rubs the back of his head thinking.

"Well, there is Darren... And I don't know the rest." Yuuki says. "Oh yeah! There is Melissa, your cabin captain person."

I feel curious about what the guys have to say and consider spying on them but am pretty sure that Axel would hear me. I keep walking until I find a sizable tree and climb as high as I dare and shoot at knots in the roots. I think I hear a rustling and pause, it's dark now and the only light is a while away at camp. I'm hearing things I reason and continue shooting.

Tyril nods,as she also thinks about it.Then her eyes widen "Oh gods!Dad!" Tyril quickly takes out her phone,and begins to text."What am I supposed to tell him...I can't tell him the truth...He'll think I'm insane.."Tyril sighs,and thinks,trying to think of a good lie.As she thinks,she puts her phone back in her pocket and messes with something else in her pocket.
