Heie Yukianesa  Heie finally arrived at the lake, There were a lot of people here and they looked to be having fun, Maybe this is why they all just seemed like normal human, They neglected their training to go swimming. He didn't want to keep reece waiting with all his pointless thinking.
I'm going to go and purchase some swim trunks, I'll meet you back at the lake Reece Heie said as he slowly took off towards the shop to buy a few items to prepare him for so fun swimming.
On the way Heie caught a whiff of something that smelled awesome, It was the shops special soft served pretzels, heie was a fit young man but one thing he couldn't help was his intake of junk food, And right now after such a tiring battle a pretzel with melted nacho cheese sounded great.

 People say beauty and brains don't mix,Reece followed closely behind Heie. So many demigods, but every one tried to be just a teen at the lake. The clicks were obvious though even if there were so many kids. She was beckoned by some of the Greeks she knew and she saw Heie being beckoned by the Romans. Neither group would want the other to tag along with those they summoned though, so she started walking towards a more secluded area of the lake. After all, if this was fun, why not just try to avoid a headache from the petty feud?
'I finally met a kid who just didn't wear the bathing suit underneath their clothes or let alone own a suit.' she thought to herself as she watched him take off towards the little shop the Hermes cabin ran. They always had everything one needed, and always something to catch your eye out whenever you went. Not half bad prices there, but then again those little fun thieves liked their drachmas almost more than the Aphrodite kids. Those kids loved to spend money to look uber chic at all times. Though the boys were nice to look at, they were too uppity for even her tastes.
Sighing, Reece tightened her pigtails as she found the right spot for her and Heie. Stripping her outer clothes, she was left in a magenta bikini. It matched the rubber bands she kept her hair held back in. Stretching slightly, and only slightly because of the match she just went through, she waded into the water before diving in. The water was cool on such a warm day and it cleaned the last traces of mud and sand from her person. By now the arena would be sand filled once again and the damage no longer seen. Just a perk to having a magical arena. Gotta love it. but I'm the girl that will prove them wrong.

Heie Yukianesa Heie had finally found the proper swim trunks and went to meet Reece at the lake. He had a piece of the pretzel in his mouth and all the others Romans laughed at him as he walked to get through to the lake. a sad expression, for only a moment, and then it went blank as if to hide it.
Getting through to the lake, He finally saw her and walked over to her. He was already in his swim trunks. He sat at the edge and sat down, Wading his feet into the water, looking down to see his reflection in it. He couldn't manage to get that awful blank look off of his face, And he distanced himself, Not in body but in presence. Ever since he has been here Heie has never made a friend, Be his own fault or others He was always alone. even his own sister pretended to have no relation with him.

 Promise me you'll always remember:By the time Heie had returned, Reece was floating on her back looking up at the sky with a complacent look in her pale blue eyes. Her hair floated around her like seaweed, occasionally brushing against her body before it returns to floating listlessly. She knew she looked nothing like her father, but took after her mother. Though average as their lives might have been, her mother's beauty could have made her famous. But she chose a humble life when she married: to be a mother and caregiver to her children. Reece didn't want that life. Adventure and the thrill of adrenaline coursing through her veins is what she craved.
'Lucky for me that monsters love to hunt demigods or even this life would be boring as well.' she thought to herself as she finally took notice to Heie at the water's edge. She saw in the distance the Romans laughing at him, which she knew because of their pointing. 'So they weren't beckoning him after all.' she thought to herself as she began to swim towards him. When the water became shallow, she walked to the point where the water was below her knees. Sitting, it was enough cover from the wind so she wouldn't chill.
"You know, it's more fun if you actually enter the water instead of just sitting there like a bump on a log." Reece said with a sweet tone. She was slightly concerned that he tried to hide the sad look from his expression. The tricky thing about expressions is that the eyes can ruin what one tries to convey. "What's wrong?" she finally asked as she beckoned him to join her in the water. Water was calm, serene, and would hopefully make him feel better. Being down in the dumps was not a fun place to be of course, so the natural thing was to try to cheer him up so they could have some fun at the lake. You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

Heie Yukianesa Heie could here them making fun of him for being with a girl born of a Greek god. Heie honestly didn't care how they felt, But he wanted to do something about them looking down on her. He could here them calling him a drop out and a loser, suddenly Reece spoke out to him.Oh! umm...There is nothing wrong. Let's swim He said with a covered smile as he slowly dipped himself in the water, slightly allowing the water to rise across half his face.
He decided to just ignore the jerks and focus on someone who was worth it. She was his first real friend in the world, Moping around wouldn't be very fair to her, He looked at her and lifted his head above the water. Hey Reece? I'm sorry about earlier, I guess I kinda spaced out. He said and gave her a big honest smile. He made a promise to himself that after today, That was the last time he would stand for that kinda treatment. He utilized his wind ability to make the water give a massaging bubbling effect

 I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. "Heie, I'm not an idiot, I know they're making fun of you on my account. If you want, I can stay here and you can go join them." Reece said with a smile on her lips but a glare at the other kids. The Greeks were too far away, but she knew that they would gossip unless she was around. Making fun a camp counselor who would gladly kick their butts tended to keep mouths quiet. Except Aphrodite kids. They just liked hearing their voices though. She's met a good Aphrodite kid before, but they're a rare handful.
Sighing, she followed him further into the water after he declined her offer. Taking a deep breath, she dove underneath the water and swam as far as she could before having to rise for air. There were naiads in the water, but they were always light and playful spirits and would mean them no harm. "It's ok Heie, we all have those moments." she said as she pushed her bangs back and began to float on her back. She seemed relaxed, but when he was close enough, she kicked her leg and sent a spray of water at him.
Laughing, Reece dived and grabbed his leg to drag him under before swimming away. If it was one thing she excelled in, it was making people forget about the worries of life by just being her playful self. Though her breath was held underwater, she began laughing the moment her head surfaced from the water. Wiping water from her eyes, she tried looking around to find where Heie was. That's deep enough. What do you want, an adorable pancreas?

Heie Yukianesa After talking to her a bit Heie decided to have a little fun of his own and focused his wind power on a certain spot to make her think he was about to surface, Instead he came up from a spot behind her and gave a big yell saying Boo! his intent was to scare the crap outta her

 The greatest pleasure in life isReece was still looking around for Heie and soon she found him. Splashing beneath the water, she was partially worried he was drowning. Then again, he could be faking it just to lure her near and then drag her under. With a stifled laugh, she slowly began to wade her way through the water towards the splashing. 'Dun dun... dun dun... dun dun dun dun...' she thought to herself as she kept moving forward inching little by little. If he was drowning, he'd be dead by the time she got there at her pace. Luckily, the next few moments proved he wasn't drowning.
Soon Heie came up behind her and screamed boo. Reactions to go through: fight or flight. Being a demigod, she chose fight. No weapon or anything, she simply spun and slapped whoever was behind her without thinking about it. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry!" she said as she tried to check his face. There was a red mark that she could see, but it made her feel guilty. "Never sneak up on someone at this camp, it never ends well. It's like starting a phrase with 'This one time at church camp'." she said as she tried to make him laugh. doing what people say you cannot do.

Heie Yukianesa Obviously sneaking on her was not a very good idea, He learned that when he ended up upside down in a bush after being slapped by her. Her humor at the moment didn't really get through to him as his head was still spinning from the sudden B**ch slap across the cheek.
When Heie finally gained his sense back Reece was standing over him looking to make sure he was alive. The joke had finally registered in his now recovered head and he randomly started to laugh a little. Geeze Reece, I think that slap was powerful enough to knock the wing even outta me! He said in a painful chuckle as he held his face. He stood to his feet and started to slightly hover off the ground a bit as the wind completely dried him off. So lesson learned, No sneaking up on a Demigod He said as he touched his feet back down to the ground and smiled at her to show tha he was okay

 Whatever women do they must do twice as well as men to be thought half as good.'He so totally added to that punch. There's no way I could have slapped him all the way over there. That's just ridiculous.' Reece thought to herself as she started to get cold. There was always a pleasant breeze around the camp and Cacia, but coming fresh out the water in a breeze was always a bit less than pleasant. She'd have to handle it though till she knew Heie was okay. It technically was her fault for why he was all the way over here with his butt in a bush. Kinda funny, but concern had to be the first thing she showed.
"That totally wasn't my fault, you scared me! Hopefully you'll stick to the lesson." she said with a laugh as she wrung out her hair. The breeze already began to dry her body and she assumed their little relaxation was over. What to do next, though, was unknown. She wanted to learn a bit more about that creepy Egyptian boy, but she didn't want to involve Heie with her odd hunches she got at random. He'd think her crazier than he probably already did. She did tend to have that affect on people, just another one of her funny little quirks that made Caprice into Reece. Luckily, this is not difficult to achieve.

Heie Yukianesa Heie seemed to get a little distracted with though as a little time went on so he decided to ask Reece about the distracting thought. Reece? May I ask you a weird question? saying it like that he would probably make her worry, but she was a tough girl so it would most likely be fine.
It was all now a matter of " Should I say this directly or should I see what she thinks about it first" Type of thing. Being himself he would decided to ask her about it directly.

 Never look back on your past, for what happened then can no longer be changed.Reece was in the process of taking her hair down and sitting on the floor to brush it with her fingers as Heie got distracted. Her hair always got too heavy after swimming so she always needed to take her hair down before her scalp turned even more white."Hmm....?" she murmured at him as she continued to run her fingers through her hair. He wasn't the only one who could become distracted. It took a few moments for her to process what it was that he was saying. "Wait, what?" she asked as she let her hair fall and her attention was given to him.
Reaching her hand out, she let him help her up as she waited for him to ask her what he wanted to know. Weird questions, though weird she may be, was never something someone wanted to here. It was like someone saying "We need to talk" during a relationship making it a definite red flag. Pushing her bangs out of her face, she gave him a funny look and tried the patience thing. Never really suited her, but it never hurts to learn a new trick. Look forward towards your future, for that is what is in your control.

Heie Yukianesa He held his hands out to help her dry her hair by giving it a gentle concentrated breeze. His power did have some uses he thought to himself. By her tone of voice he could tell she was a little confused so he went ahead and asked her. about earlier while we were sparing. did you notice that strange Egyptian boy with that crazy lust for blood? He said as he stopped from drying her now dry hair and walking over to grab hold of his shirt, slipping it on.
She would probably think him crazy for asking such a random question, But if proven to be for real they both could have a problem on their hands.
He walked back over to her after a few seconds to here her reply.

 Curiosity killed the cat,"Thanks" Reece said as she pulled her hair back up to its natural pig tails position. Moving to her clothes, her arm froze as it was sliding into its sleeve. She knew exactly who he was talking about and was surprised he took notice of the boy as well. Sliding her shirt on, she bent down to pick up her shorts as she spoke. "Yeah, I noticed him. He's probably just like the other Egyptians: stuck up and hates us because we're 'beneath' his culture." she began as she buttoned her shorts. It might have been considered weird getting dressed in front of a boy, but then again they had just finished swimming.
"Maybe he wants to cause some trouble here in Cacia, even if the gods made a pact to keep this place clear of our feuds. There's always that one kid, ya know?" she said as she finished getting dressed and strapped Amynta to her back. Once secured, she moved to stand by Heie as she looked in the direction of the arena. That's where they had last seen the boy and maybe they should go check it out. "Wanna play good cop bad cop with the boy?" she asked with a smirk as she began to walk backwards towards the arena. but for a while I was a suspect.
