Even though the sounds of birds chirping was peaceful, Harmony couldn’t help but jerk awake at the sound. Her sleep that night had been rough, plagued with different nightmares, each scarier than the last. And it was always the same thing. The camps being attacked, blazing fire so high that the sky looked like a crimson red, screams of terror that pierced through the crackling, the gods being chained and forced to watch their children die in a blaze. She could still remember that day, she had been so cranky that day, looking back it was almost humorous. The monsters had come all too quick. Too quick for anyone to really defend themselves. There were so many that it was practically impossible to even think of trying to defeat them all. So they fled into the forest. Harmony remembered running so fast that she thought her legs were going to snap, but she didn’t stop. The smell of blood and smoke lingered and made her gag and cough as she tried to take in any clean air. Minerva, a counselor she didn’t know, had yanked everyone together and tried to flee. But once they made it to safety, she was nowhere to be found. Swallowed up by flames, monsters, and blood. Just thinking back to that memory left her shaking a little, but she couldn’t let others see her being weak. Not now.

Taking a deep breath, she sat up in her sleeping bag. Her head pounded from little sleep, and her back ached from sleeping on the ground, but she ignored it and stretched. Yawning, she couldn’t help but yearn for a hot bath and some makeup. She probably looked like a mess. Harmony sighed. Her mother wouldn’t be proud. She looked around at the others sleeping as the morning finally came. They’d probably all be up soon. Only a few of them she got along with pretty well, the rest she didn’t really know, or just rather avoid for the time being. She noticed Klaus was up, probably from keeping watch. At the thought of the young man, she could feel her insides go a little sour. Despite their parents getting along pretty well, they didn’t really like each other all that much. Harmony could only figure it was because he didn’t like someone standing up against his manliness. Typical. The other person already awake she had completely different feelings for. Myles was definitely the next guy she had happened to fall for. She couldn’t help but feel all flustered and giddy when he was around, which was embarrassing to say the least. He was just different than the usual guys she liked. Meaning he wasn’t total trash. And by the smell of things, he was currently making breakfast for the twelve here.

Putting up her brown hair in a ponytail and brushing her bangs with her fingers to avoid looking like a complete disaster, she pushed herself out of the sleeping bag and made her way over to the fire where Myles was cooking. She could feel her stomach start to tingle and her cheeks start to gain a faint pink color, and she groaned internally. She could practically feel her mother scolding her in her head. You’re the daughter of the goddess of beauty for Zeus sake. You could make any man fall at your feet in three seconds, pull yourself together! Blocking out her thoughts, she cleared her throat, and spoke softly, careful not to wake the others. “Good morning,” she said gently, her voice still filled with sleep. She peered up at him but frowned as she noticed the dark circles under his eyes. She went to touch his face but then pulled her hand back and just hoped he didn’t notice. That was smooth. “Uh..I-well have you been getting enough sleep?” she said, stumbling over her words a bit. She felt like taping her mouth shut after that. This was so stupid. She could easily talk to anyone else on the planet, so she didn’t have to be all shy just because she liked some guy. Swallowing her nerves, pulling her shoulders back, and putting a confident smile on her face, she looked him straight in the eye and waited for a response.

indentThe early morning sun woke up Shiram from a rather unpleasant dream, but nothing could be worse than the situation the group was in. His whole body ached, he hated sleeping on the ground in a terrible quality sleeping bag but it wasn't like they could afford anything better not if they wanted to continue to survive. His slowly opened, wincing at as the sun hit his eyes, the small demi-god sat up in his sleeping bag and stretched his worn muscles. His eyes fell to his shoulder, pulling aside the fabric of his t-shirt to check on the large bruise that had covered it. A soft He was lucky that's all the destruction of camp gave him, well besides the trauma of seeing the slaughter of other demi-gods. His dreams were already haunted by dead strangers and now the faces of his deceased friends joined them. The night before he barely managed to fall asleep and stay that way, at one point waking up and suffering from an episode of sleep paralysis. It was difficult at times for him to discern whether the things he saw were the dead or simple hallucinations. This time he knew for all he could see was the crying face of the demi-god that had caused him to get the bruise on his shoulder, the male's face is what kept him awake for a good portion of the night.
indentRam had been just getting ready for the morning when the screaming started, he had barely closed the cabin door behind him when a body slammed into his. The demi-god was heavily bleeding but it was clear to him that the male was a footstep away from death. He held him against his chest, wiping the dying man's tears and whispering what he hoped was soothing words, "May your soul find peace in Elysium." Shiram lowered the male's eyelids when his last breath left him. Tears were in his eyes when he was suddenly yanked up and told him to join the others and run.
indentShiram reached for the sword his father gifted to him and traced the gold on its hilt with a sad smile on his face, his father hadn't communicated with him in weeks. It wasn't like his father talked to him often but he liked to think that Hades held some affection for him, he had least expected to receive some concern from and hadn't. Perhaps his father didn't care for him as much as he had hoped. The small demi-god sighed as he stood up, he gripped the hilt of his sword before slinging the red rope fastened to it over his left shoulder, Ram adjusted the sword so it would rest flat on his back. Another day of being on the run for their very lives, oh the joys of being a demigod. He glanced to his right and gently tapped the sleeping form with his foot, wearing a bright smile on his face as he did so, "The sun is up and so should you."

the air smelled sickly sweet of honeysuckle and native wildflowers. as she awoke, her fingers swirled the soft, cool sand. olympia's eyes had focused on an ant that was crawling through the sand with her head resting on her arm. oh to be an ant in spain, with no obligations to the outside world. at times, it was oddly comforting to realize how easy these small creatures live, especially now. her chest felt hollow, mostly when it was quiet with nothing to distract her from her own emotions. she had felt that way since leaving the camp. the travesty had left a hole in her that could not be filled with silly banter or vengeance. the hollow feeling was a reminder of what had happened. how a woman who she did not know the name of had saved her and yet she had not gotten the chance to say thank you. now, she never would.

deciding it was best not to allow herself fall any deeper into her own thoughts, olympia propped herself up on her elbows. looking around, she could see klaus standing at the edge of the clearing with his back to her. she wondered what was going on inside of his head in that moment and took note of the deep gashes in the wood. the breeze flowed through again and this time it carried the scent of eggs and bacon. her mouth watered and her stomach convinced o to stand up. carefully, she tread across the clearing before coming across an awake ram. "good morning ram. it's a nice day for fighting some monsters, isn't it?" she spoke softly to the man who she felt she had an odd obligation to protect. "make sure to get some breakfast. who knows what we may run into." she spoke this time a bit more seriously before flashing a small smile his way and turning to go check on the others.

her attention was drawn to where breakfast was being made, the hunger gnawing at her stomach was pressing on her mind. she was determined though to ignore it. the thought of eating before the others was heavy on her heart. brushing the stray strands of hair that had fallen out of her braid, she looked at harmony and myles. olympia waved towards the duo from afar, not wanting to disturb the others' sleep with her words. myles was one of her rocks in the sea of her problems, sturdy and reliable. he was a friend, a great friend to say the least. harmony and olympia were very similar though there were some differences that blocked any meaningful relationship. o trusted the woman though, which was enough for her.

after crossing the clearing entirely, she had arrived at the edge. she spoke lightly as she approached klaus before standing next to the man. "i'm assuming nothing went bump in the night? unless you count the helpless rotting wood." olympia looked out at the scene before her. it really was beautiful and it was a shame that she had to visiting spain under such circumstances. she closed her eyes as the sun hit her face. it was warm against her skin and the woman allowed her shoulders to drop. "myles is making breakfast so based off of that it should be ready fast. don't skimp out on it."

ky awoke from his deep sleep as he felt someone lightly tapping his body. he immediately felt need to be submerged in water. he felt his muscles tense, skin tighten, and a slight headache forming. these were all the signs that he had before he was about to pass out. he quickly anchored himself on his elbow and looked around the field where he and the group had fallen asleep. he saw some of them were awake, but the rest were still in a disturbed slumber. he did not envy the nightmares and terrors that plagued their dreams. he was not one to dream. he was rather plagued the memories that haunted his thoughts, and made him see hallucinations of what had happened the day everything had truly gone wrong. for the past few weeks the hallucinations had mostly been of his half-siblings- covered in blood, burned, or both- screaming out his name. that was mostly all he could remember that day. he was by the lake with his half-siblings sparring and practicing their abilities, then after that he only remembers their screams and the roars of the monsters killing them. he hoped with everything in him that some had escaped like him and the group, but he knew deep down that they might all be dead. he also remembers running till his legs almost gave out. he didn’t look beside him or behind him, only forward. in that moment there was no rage, the only thing he felt was a fear that he had never felt before.
ky rubbed his eyes to get rid of the sleep. he then looked up to see ram. he smiled slightly at his words. ”well, at least i have some manners, unlike the sun up there.” he gave a small chuckle. he lifted himself off the cheap sleeping bag they had gotten. he didn’t like how the material rubbed against his chest and legs, so he had slept with the front of his body exposed to the bug infested air. luckily, his blood was too watery for bugs' taste, so he usually had no bites or bumps to deal with. he then ran his hand through his hair hoping it didn’t look too awful. but it honestly wasn’t his biggest issue at the moment. he looked at ram. ”want to head to the river i saw west of here?” ram then agreed in his own words. ky then slipped on his worn in flip-flops. as he did so, olympia walked by. he gave her a quick two-fingered salute as a greeting. he would catch up with her later after he didn’t feel like passing out. he looked over to the others that were awake. he honestly didn’t care awfully too much about letting them know where he and ram were going. they knew the son of poseidon and the son of hades could handle any small inconveniences that could come out in these mostly secluded woods.
ky started walking west and made a hand movement encouraging ram to follow him. ky didn’t walk too fast or too slow. he couldn’t keep a fast pace because he knew he would probably pass out, but he was in enough of a hurry he couldn’t afford to be slow. he hoped ram would catch on with his pace. they walked across the clearing and into the thicker cover of the forest. luckily for ky, the river wasn’t too awfully far from the clearing. ky’s face filled with relief as he saw the water. he managed to bring his pace to a jog to get to the water’s edge. ”feel free to hop in! he said to ram before taking off his unbuttoned shirt and his shorts. ky then jumped into the not-so-clear river before hearing what ram had decided. immediately after he hit the water, his eyes turned light blue and his body absorbed the power the water gave him both physically and mentally. his muscles and skin relaxed and his headache dissipated. he floated under the water. it was rather deep for a river, but ky was able to swim and wasn’t worried about the depth. his eyes returned to their natural deep brown. he then saw a hallucination within the water of his half-brother, darius, dead and floating. ky froze. this was one of his more calm hallucinations. however, ky was anything but calm. he stared at his dead brother. his heart was beating faster than myles could move. he knew it wasn’t really him, but ky still reached out hoping it was. the body then disappeared. ky’s eyes turned light blue once again as he twisted the water into a funnel where the body had been. he then rose to the surface of the water with a few kicks of his feet. he took a big breath of oxygen, wiped his eyes, and then pushed his hair back out of his face.

spacethe first few rays of sun had only begun to dapple the leaf-strewn ground as reese began to stir.

spacehe felt his muscles ache and his head groan as he shifted into a sitting position, fingers pulling gently at the bags beneath his eyes. sweeping his gaze over the wooden floor of the cabin, he briefly acknowledged the resting forms of a few of the group members. the last few weeks had been rough, and the struggles each of the demi-gods had overcome so far were displayed in the fading bruises and closing gashes that littered the faces of a select few. the sight made reese sick to his stomach, and though he had an idea that there was an ulterior motive behind the attacks on the camps, he wanted to put off the fighting for as long as possible.

spacehe had seen enough bloodshed in the past few weeks to last him a lifetime.

spacereese's head spun as he propped himself up onto his knees, shifting his weight to his haunches. he'd been finding it difficult to sleep soundly for more than an hour at a time. his dreams were plagued with raging infernos and screams torn from the throats of his half-siblings. he could hardly bring himself to get out of his sleeping bag anymore. because of this, he was often drowsy in the mornings, but he was usually back to his usual self just before mid-day.

spacewith a yawn, he brought his arms above his head in a stretch, trudging out of the cabin and out into the clearing.

spacea few others were already awake; reese's attention lingered on klaus for a moment, following the shards of bark that shot away from the tree as the axe became submerged in the wood. his nose scrunched up at the sight of the tree's rotting interior, and quickly turned, scratching at his collarbone. myles and harmony were cooking something in the corner, and the salty aroma of eggs and the fatty smell of bacon had reese's mouth watering. despite this, he felt bile lurch up into his throat at the thought of eating, and in an attempt to escape the pungent scent of sizzling breakfast, he rushed off into the trees, a hand clutching his stomach.

spacehe made sure not to stray far, as the group had had a few run-ins with some rather unpleasant beasts. it definitely wouldn't have been wise to venture much further. though, he wouldn't have had to, as the smell of eggs had been replaced by the much more pleasant smell of morning dew and wildflowers.

spacethe man's shoulders fell forward as his back slid down the trunk of an oak. he rested his elbows on his knees, picking dirt and dried blood from beneath his fingernails. being alone gave him some time to think and reflect on the mess of events that had led up to the group's arrival in europe. it was a blur, really. reese found that it was difficult for him to recall a lot of the tiny details, but he mainly blamed his loss of memory on the exhaustion that constantly lingered in the back of his mind.

spacedespite the fact that it was his father who was being held captive, reese felt as if he were the one tied down in chains. a tightness rested in his chest, which would squeeze at his heart and claw at his lungs. he felt like there was a parasite inside of him. a parasite that wouldn't go away until whatever was wrong was fixed. he wasn't sure what exactly was happening, but when he considered the fact that someone, or something, had targeted the camps, he figured that it definitely wasn't good.

spacejust the thought of the attacks made reese's vision go red with anger. it was the kind of red that he didn't experience often. it was the kind of red that was often accompanied by random spouts of pure, unfiltered rage. it was the kind of red that made his fingers itch for a cigarette.

spacehe slipped his fingers into his pocket, pulling a single stick out from a half-empty box. it, along with a lighter, was one of the few things he had managed to swipe from his nightstand before his cabin had been burned to cinders. he was ashamed that the cigarettes had been the first thing he had grabbed. if he hadn't gotten them, perhaps he could have saved someone's life? maybe, if he had actually been thinking properly, another demi-god would still be breathing.

spacereese gently bashed the back of his head against the tree, clearing his head. the last thing he needed on his plate was unnecessary guilt. his shoulders felt heavy enough, after all.

spacelighting the cigarette, he twisted it between his fingers, watching as the filter began to glow a warm orange. the heat felt good against his skin as he brought it to his lips, coils of smoke curling over his cheekbones as he exhaled.

❀ Rosalie Akar ~ Daughter of Demeter ~ nature Manip ~ Tagged: Myles, Harmony, Olympia ~ Mentioned: ❀

Rosalie, all hardships aside, woke up in a relatively peaceful state. It took her a couple of minutes to actually take a look around, re-familiarizing herself with the riverbank not far off from where their flimsy sleeping bags were. Slender fingers gingerly ran over the one that had been deemed as hers, curling around the material as she yawned. The smell of the flowers, however, caused her to gently close her eyes upon sitting up, managing to pretend for a moment she was in a better world than this one. Back at camp, maybe.
She stayed put for several, long moments. The first instinct was to glance around, assessing who was where and hoping all was going considerably well.It was clear about half of the group had managed to pull themselves from slumber already, and Rosalie was one of the later ones. The strawberry blonde gingerly rose to her feet. Ram was close by, as was Kyros, rising to his feet. She didn't follow them right away, taking in their departure with still heavy eyelids. She offered them a small wave in light of their departure, however still managed to keep herself put. Her palm gingerly rested over the divide between sand and dirt, letting a small dandelion sprout between her fingertips. Fingers were as gentle as one could be in plucking it from the group, uprooting what she had grown no more than seconds later with a soft apology. Her mother had always found it endearing how she would talk to the plants with exception to mint, even though she insisted they couldn't be heard. Since she was young, Rose still had not died away from that habit.
Nonetheless, she plucked the flower off it's stem and de-rooted it, peeling away the first layer of the root while chewing on the flower itself. Tying its stem in a knot, Persephone balled it and the root in her hand, beginning to walk in the direction of several voices she'd heard. Just as she'd begun to officially be ready for the rest of an inevitably rough day, she heard the distinct voice of Myles ringing in her ears, picking her head up at the sound. It was what she needed to really kick start her movement and got to her feet. Each stride was long and graceful, light on her feet as she approached the trio and offered them a smile. "You guys are amazing," She spoke unintentionally soft, gesturing towards the plates and eggs, however didn't make any advancement towards the plates as much as she did towards the water at the sound of his suggestion, giving a small nod. "The water looks so beautiful, too," She noted, although still turned her head towards Myles, Harmony, and Olympia, waiting for one of them to begin walking before she did.

indentShiram glanced gave Olympia a soft smile, "Morning!" He nodded his head before giving her a small salute, "Yes ma'am!" His eyes followed after the tall blonde as she walked away. She always behaved more like an older sister, at times, even like a mother. His head whipped back to look at Ky, realizing he had stirred from the gentle kicks he been giving him.
indentRam's smile brightened as Ky sat up, he tilted his head to the side as he observed the other demi-god's face. He knew that look on Ky's face, his smile momentarily faded but it brightened once more when the older man responded to his comment. The small demi-god considered the offer for not even a mere second, "Of course I want to come with you!"Shiram skipped after the much taller male with a smile on his face. He knew that he probably seemed too eager to be spending time with Ky, but the other man already knew what he felt for him and had for a long time. He felt no reason to hide his excitement of spending time with him if he tried to hide it, Ky would only tease him for it.
indentHe averted his eyes as the other man shed his outer clothes, only turning his head when he heard the splash of the other man entering the water. Ram was at first hesitant to get into the water, he wasn't the best swimmer especially compared to the son of Posideon. A soft sigh left his lips as he took off his shirt and shorts, no one was telling him he had to go the center of the river, he could stay in the shallower part of the river and speak from there. Shiram carefully went into the river, shivering at the slight chill of the water, he watched as the small ripples of the water turned large ones. His heart began to race in his chest, he knew something must've upset Ky for him to be creating them. He took a deep breath as he swam towards the location where he thought Ky was.
indentRam stopped when he reached the now resurfaced Ky, at this point he was almost dog paddling, he reached out for the other demi-god, "C'mere, what's happened?" He hated seeing anyone upset especially when it was someone he was close to. The small demi-god put his hand on Ky's bare shoulder and squeezed gently. He was no longer focused on anything but making sure that Ky was okay and that he would do anything to comfort him.
indentEven though he felt the urge to stick his feet down to stand, he knew he couldn't reach the bottom. He tried to ignore the slight fear that bubbled up, but he was with Ky and Ram knew that the other demi-god would never let him come anywhere close to being injured, especially not when he was in the water.

once ky opened his eyes he saw another pair of dark brown eyes. ky’s eyes returned to their natural color upon seeing ram. he looked to see ram doggy paddling towards him. ky lightly kicked his feet and stopped once he had hit the rocky silt slope. he felt ram squeeze his shoulder lightly for comfort. ky’s heartbeat slowed at the contact. he focused on slowing his breathing. in and then out. in and then out. it was just a hallucination. he told himself, however, the fact that it was a hallucination did not help that darius was dead. he shook his head making droplets of water scatter and cause ripples. ky saw that he had flung some water also in ram’s face. he looked at the droplets slowly falling down his cheek. he would rather look at the droplets than tell ram he had been having hallucinations since they fled. ky wanted to be seen as strong and chill, but his act was slowly crumbling as the days past. ky noticed ram seemed to be struggling to find ground to touch, so ky grabbed the arm the was holding his right shoulder and slung it to the back of his left shoulder and grabbed ram’s other hand and put it on his right shoulder. now ram was hopefully not struggling as he was before. ky didn’t turn towards him, knowing he would crack a little as he knew he had to tell ram what happened.
”ever since that day, ya know the day we fled, i haven’t been able to remember what happened besides seeing people dead, hearing all their screams, and running off of pure fear. i want to say i was strong enough to save some of them, but i wasn’t. i was just scared and i ran. and also since that day, i’ve seen countless hallucinations of my half-siblings and just unrecognizable kids. kids, ram, freaking kids. i don’t get to dream about them and keep it to myself, no, i get to see lifelike images of them.” ky stopped for a brief moment as a tear rolled down his face, but thankfully was disguised among all the other water droplets on his face. ”i just saw darius, under the water just floating. you would’ve thought he was sleeping since he could hold his breath longer than me and the others can, but i knew he wasn’t sleeping. i knew it.” he stopped to get ahold of himself. he walked a little farther up the slanted silt. he then gently took ram’s hands off of his shoulder and guided him to where he could stand in front of ky. ky then again wiped the water off of his face and pulled back his hair. he breathed out a long sigh. he felt relieved in a weird way. he felt like he hadn’t fully expressed how he felt about the whole situation yet, not even with olympia or reese. he looked down at the water rippling between the two of them to avoid looking at ram’s face. ”sorry, i just haven’t gotten that out.” he apologized to the other male, hoping to have not made him uncomfortable. he let out another long breath.
