Des walked behind the stables. Twilight had fallen over the camp, and she glanced behind her, squinting. Retrieving a spray bottle from her coat, she squirted it a couple of times, making sure it caught the light of Apollo's retreating chariot turned car.
"O goddess, accept my offering. Luke Castellan, the Princess Andromeda," she said softly, throwing a coin into the mini rainbow. It shimmered and then, slowly, the face of Kronos' vessel appeared. His eyes were blue, a rare moment Luke was himself, or what was left of himself. He looked weak, as Kronos was now the source of his strength.
"What is it Desdemona? Anything important?" he questioned. She hesitated.
"You can sniff out the rebel easily. It's a weakness. There's one girl- sir, she has wings. And then there are others, who question the gods. But I don't know how I should get them to join. Isn't telling to risky?" she said, nervously.
"Risks are the way we live our life. If they react badly, kill them. That's how it works here." Luke said. "Is that all? Then I bid you goodnight." And he cut off the connection before she could say anymore. Great, she just loved her situation right now.

Aleici patted the pegasus' side. "There you go, horsie!" she said cheerfully. Chiron had asked for her help in setting a pegasus' broken bone, and she had happily obliged. "The horsie's all better!" Aleici sang, bouncing around. The pegasus opened one sleepy eye and glowered at her. "Sorry, horsie!" she whispered, immediately quieting down. Then she heard a voice coming from the other side of the thin stable walls.
Aleici skipped around to see who it was. She was about to call out, "Hiii!" but then she saw that the girl was talking to someone through an Iris Message.
"You can sniff out the rebel easily. It's a weakness. There's one girl- sir, she has wings. And then there are others, who question the gods. But I don't know how I should get them to join. Isn't telling to risky?" the girl said nervously.
"Risks are the way we live our life. If they react badly, kill them. That's how it works here," the tall boy said. "Is that all? Then I bid you goodnight." And he cut off the connection before she could say anymore.
Aleici's eyes widened. As the girl turned around, she saw that it was Des, another camper. Who had she been talking to? The boy looked familiar...
And then it hit her.
"Luke, the traitor," Aleici whispered. "She was talking to Luke."

Des' hair stood on end, her eyes scanning the stables, it was dark... but she had sworn she had heard a high pitched, overall annoying voice. Her hand went to her pocket where her sword rested, all minutrized in the Mist.
"Who's there?" she demanded. "Show yourself or you'll just be making it worse!" Her heart had never beat quite so fast, her hands had never felt quite so clammy. "I swear it, I'll kill you."
Luke was going to murder her! Des breathed out slowly, calm yourself.

Suddenly, two people fell out of the stable loft. "Ouch! Damn it!" swore C.C. "I think I sprained my... something," said Bran, rubbing his jeans. "C.C., where's my shirt?" C.C. sighed. "You'll live. Where's my hairclip?" Bran blinked. "So a hairclip is more important than a shirt now?" C.C. twirled. "Earth to Bran, I think it's Desdemona and Aleici over there." Bran blushed. "Uh, sorry but..."

"Don't kiiiiiiiiiiiill me!" Aleici wailed, throwing herself on the ground as Des' feet. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'm too young to die!!!!" She stayed there, head bent, for several long seconds.

Three of them? This was bad, this was suicide! Backing up slowly she took in her surrounding. Shirtless guy... son of Hera? Girl annoyed about a hairclip... that minor goddess? Aleici, annoying little stalker. She shot a glance at the girl at her feet.
"Tell anyone what you heard, and you die Aleici. Understand?" Des asked, a lot calmer then she felt. Adrenaline was rushing through her veins at top speed. She glared over at Bran and C.C, watching to see what they had heard.
If worse came to worse, she'd kill them all. Yeah... "It was harpy Chiron, it came down at us suddenly. I tried to warn them but..." And that stupid pony would eat it up.

"Wait. Heard what?" blinked Bran. "You are such a guy," C.C. informed her boyfriend. "Aleici, right? What's going on? Who's killing who?" She brushed her disheveled hair. "Do I need a sword?" Bran sighed. "By my star charts, can't we get one MINUTE alone?"

"Nothing. No one heard or saw anything, got it?" Des said, breathing heavily. "And maybe make out sessions in a loft aren't the best idea are they?" She looked down at the girl, rolling her eyes.
"Please, shut up. Or rip out your voice box, whichever is easier."

"You better," Des said. And then she did what Luke would have dissaproved of, she ran.

Aleici watched as Des retreated into the distance. She suddenly felt the urge to follow her. An evil grin blossomed across Aleici's face... "Des, you're going to be my new favorite person!! Yay! I don't even mind that you just tried to kill me."

All Des heard was the buzzing of that annoying voice as she ran, trying to sort out her thoughts, why can't you just kill her?
((Want to start the RP with Koeset now?))

((Sure. Where should it start?))
"Des!!" Aleici yelled. "See you tomorrow!" She waved enthusiastically, all traces of fear gone.

((Aleici could join Des and Koeset at the Shallows, or maybe the Pavilion?))
