(Avery Summers)
Avery walked towards the building not quite sure what it was. She had been left off here real early this morning by her father leaving her all the time in the world to explore. She had seen this place earlier but didnt really feel like waking anyone up. Its not exactly an everyday thing that your dad tells you that your a hero in waiting and that your long lost mother is really a goddess. She took a deep breath hoping that she didnt catch anyones attention.
As she reached for the railing she felt a chill crawl up her spine like something was out of place. She wanted to do nothing more than scream at her mother and everyone in the near by area. She had to be having a nightmare but when she touched the door handle and got shocked she knew deep down everything that had happened to her was real. She sighed and mumbled, "Great i'm crazy and now im part god because of moms weakness to stay away from mortals. Yep I'm definatly crazy to be buying any of this. I bet they are just pushing to see how much i can take before my meds are useless...." She couldnt help a nervous giggle as she pulled the door open to the big house. She slammed the door shut once she disappeared into the house not even realizing she had done it.
((I hope this was an okay place to start cause i wasnt sure where to begin.))

Acturius Gale
Acturius cautiously walked towards the Big House. He could see many trails of light leading to, from, and across the house. Granted, there were not as many as at the top of the Empire State Building, but it still glowed quite bright, and it felt a lot more... 'welcoming' than the Empire State Building. He was tired after his 2 week journey to New York, following the various trails that lead there. When he reached the city, he understood that the blazing beacon he had been coming towards was not the place for him, and yet there was another place nearby that was. Like a campfire, as opposed to the sun. And so here he was, wandering around in a daze not quite sure what he should be doing. He entered the house, extremely confused about where he was, yet not questioning for a second that it was where he was meant to be.
As he stepped inside, he noticed a girl in the room. She seemed somewhat angry, and confused at the same time. He could relate to that. She had a slight glow around her, gold flecked with red, an aura that projected a feeling of victory. " I take it that you're new here..." He asked with trepidation. He already was pretty sure of the answer, but it was always polite to ask. "Do you know anything at all about this place?" He sat down on a chair and started his routine maintenance on his crossbow.

(Avery Summers)
Avery jumped slightly when she realized that someone had actually been in the Big House. How long he had been there she wasnt sure but the point was is that she had been careless about her complaining. She blushed slightly though she was still angry about everything she still felt like she owed this person an appology, "Yes i am new here though im not really sure why I am here though. It seems like a nice enough camp but why my dad would abandon me here and tell me the story he did is beyond me. I was told by my aunt that my mother died in a blaze of glory. That definatly isnt the same story my dad told me." Avery took a deep breath feeling like she had just rambled to much, "I'm sorry about that and my earlier rant. I'm Avery Summers one of the newest people to join this camp. What about you?Are you a new person to this camp?"
Avery watched the boy with the crossbow as he cleaned it. She felt herself tensing up knowing that out of flustration she had just told this kid way to much information about herself. She cursed under her breathe thinking that they were definatly going to throw her into the padded room for this outburst. She sat on the chair opposite of this boy. She looked at the wall and seen a spear leaning casually like it belonged there but something about it made her feel like it was waiting for an owner.

Acturius Gale
Acturius seemed a bit shocked at the sudden outburst from this girl. He felt honoured that she had chosen to confide in him, but was at a loss for how to respond. He didn't have much experience with socialization, so decided to just answer the question. "So this is a camp? I honestly have no idea what this place is, so I guess I'm even newer than you... My name's Acturius by the way."
He noticed that he girl seemed to be examining a spear leaning against the wall. It looked like it was probably the same material as his crossbow and bolts, and had a faint magical glow around it. "So..." He asked with caution, "Any idea what we're waiting for?"

Avery looked at the ground and giggled at Acturius comment about being newer. She shook her head and took a deep breath and said, "I-I dont honestly know. My dad told be this was a camp for kids like me and that i should go to this big building and wait. I only did what dad said but im thinking that someone will have to come here eventually. Then maybe they can help fill in some of the blanks." Avery looked up at Acturius watching him curious then she looked back at the spear. She thought to herself for a moment then she huffed out an angry sigh.
"Well what do you think of this place?" Avery asked as she tried yet another attempt to calm herself and make a good impression on a fellow new camper who was just as edgy about this place. She took another deep breath and watched the spear wondering if it was anyones. It had a beauty to it that made her only want to go pick it up but what kind of summer camp would allow kids to have weapons at all. She shook her head then looked outside hoping to see someone coming towards the house.

 {Jasmine Haze} Jasmine walked into the registration office. With Jola gone she kinda took over as assistant. She walked around and sat behind the desk. "Sorry to keep you waiting. The current Director is dealing with border problems." She leaned forward with her notebook in hand. "I am Jasmine Haze. Stable Master and daughter of Thanatos. God of death and lieutenant to Hades." She leaned back and smiled. "You two are clearly new and so I will start your papers. Names and has any god currently accepted you."

Acturius Gale
Confused, Acturius took a few seconds to form a coherent statement. Did she just ask if any gods have accepted me? What does that even mean? He thought to himself. "Er my name is Acturius Gale..." IDIOT! I should be sounding confident, composed, unfazed, yet here I am flubbing up a simple question. This he also thought to himself. "If you don't mind me asking, what do you mean by 'accepted by a god'?" He asked as collectedly as he could.

{Jasmine Haze} Jasmine looked at the boy. She was speaking english. "Did your godly parent claim you? If so then you weren't paying attention." She put her hands in a dominate way. Tapping her fingers slowly. She could see why Jola got frustrated. "And what of you?" She looked at the girl with a smile. The guy was just driving her crazy. "And don't get any thoughts Acturius Gale. I don't go that way."

(Avery Summers)
Avery watched the girl not sure how to react. She felt her head starting to spin as the story her father told her began to sink in.
"Please dont take this the wrong way but is this like a mental evaluation? I mean my dad told me a story on the way over here but if its true then...." Avery felt her face flush with anger, "So my mother may be a goddess who decided to abandon me with my dad and is the reason my aunt...?" Avery was trying hard to comprehend what Jasmine had just said and what her father had told her.
She looked at Jasmine once she felt comfortable with talking and tried again, "Im Avery Summers. I dont know if i have been claimed but if what your saying about us having godly parents is true my dad told me about her...."

Acturius Gale
"I honestly wasn't thinking anything of the sort, believe me." Acturius said. He felt kind of affronted that this person who seemed like she was meant to help them was so oblivious to the problem. "Don't accuse me of not paying attention, I have payed more attention in the past few weeks than in my entire life, because I've been trying to figure out why I keep being attacked by creatures that shouldn't exist!"
He tried to calm himself again. "Let me start again. My name is Acturius Gale, and I've lived in an orphanage all my life. Nobody has ever 'claimed' me, especially not a god. A few weeks ago I started to walk towards New York, following the vapour trails, and then I saw this place, and came here. So could you please explain what's going on?!" He had never mentioned the trails before, but he supposed that if these people were as different as they seemed, they may be able to see them too.

{Jasmine Haze} Jasmine looked at the boy. "You silly boy. Your godly parent did that. As to the monsters its because of your god parent." She looked to Avery. "It should happen soon. Always does. Rare if it don't" She wrote a few notes down. "You Act must give up your cross bow for now." She pulled a knife out and threw it between his feet. Not even looking at him. "I am a daughter of death." She kept writing and drawing. "As to Avery I think it will be soon. Considering you didn't bring a weapon."

(Avery Summers)
Avery looked at Acturius understanding how he felt. She had been the same experiance over the past few years and possibly even longer than that. She wanted deperatly to give into the clawing desire she felt to grab the spear off the wall if for no other reason to make her feel safe. She shook the thought out of her head clearing it further so she could speak, "Thank you Lady Jasmine. However where will we go now that we are here and why would we need weapons if we are here?"
Avery looked over at Acturius then back to Jasmine, "I think we both are very curious as to how we have godly parents and didnt even know. I get that things happen but why would that mean monsters attacking us? I also want to understand why when im attacked or angered why i can not quite remember everything and why whoever is usually in need of medical attention." Avery hoped that Jasmine could help her without being angry that she didnt fully know or believe this was all real.

{Jasmine Haze} Jasmine kept writing. "Weapons brought usually bring trouble. Mostly for thieves like the Hermes kids." She didn't look up and kept writing. "And just Jasmine. Gods have been having kids with mortals forever. They have kids but godly laws keep them from staying. Like my dad couldn't stay. And monsters love our auras. Dante, son of Zeus, gets the worst monsters because of his dads scent." She looked up a bit. "It usually depends on your god parent is your main traits. Me I'm kinda cold and heartless at times. Ares kids are belligerent. Hermes kids like to steal. Hypnos kids sleep. Muse kids are artistic." She looked at Avery, deep in thought.
