"Hey look its a food la--" Matthew covered Henry's mouth. "What he means is, it's the wonderful Roman goddess of war and plenty." He bowed and shot Henry a warning glance.

"How is minor god an insult?" Henry said too loudly. Matthew glared at Henry. He smiled at the goddess, laughing weakly.
"Sorry! I didn't- I-- I'm new! I already have enough gods and goddesses who hate me, please don't add to that list!"
Eurus lead the questers down the golden hallways. "Two people in each room. Sort it out yourselves, I have other matters to attend to." Eurus trodded back down the hallways to his royal bedroom and gently closed the door with a gust of wind.
((Righto, Dawn is forever alone! xP))"Hi I sort of exist like over here in this lonely corner! Who am I rooming with? Or am I alone? If so, fine, but I want my teddy bear."
"I'll throw balls of lightning at you." She grinned at a little bit of lightning began to appear in her hand.
"Oh come on it was a joke." Dawn said, rolling her eyes and closing her fist around the lightning so it disappeared.
Dawn let out a little yelp as she hit the ground. "Ooooooowwww... That was mean." She scowled as she got up. She pointed at December and shocked her a little.
"Hey I never actually did anything, you started it." Dawn blew her a playful raspberry.
Dawn yelped. "EVIL!" She shivered then sent another shock at December, this one a little more sharp. "LET THE WAR BE OVER!"

((dawn's with kira, tari, or sophia))
Sophia walked into the room with Kira. "So, your dad's a titan, eh? So's my mom. Feels kinda lonely joining the quest late."Henry yawned. "Well good night. Long day tomorrow." He crept into bed.
Matthew climbed into bed and stared out the window at the purple and silver clouds. He reached for his pocket and pulled out his golden quill, twirling it around absent mindedly. He turned around and faced Avalon. Seeing her back to normal made his heart warm. He couldn't describe how terrified he had been seeing her as a five year old girl, clinging to his shirt. Lord Matthew, what's going on? She had looked so much more helpless and afraid than what she had grown into. He had never known Avalon had so much fear and pain in her life. He had always seen her as strong, quick, and fearless. Seeing her as a little girl made him realize she had had just a terrible past as he had, with a story and a fear.
Dawn climbed into her bed, flinching at the coldness from her wet clothes, December. She tried to get to sleep but only looked restlessly at the ceiling. What on earth was she doing with all these hard core demigods. They knew what they were doing. She didn't She'd almost died in basically all the fights and didn't even make a difference. Yeah, when she got to camp half-blood she had a lot of training to do before she would leave.
Matthew stared at the lamp, trying to sleep... and failing. He had too much on his mind to close his eyes and relax. ((i'll be back soon... i hope))
*next morning*Henry awoke to a gust of wind in his face. "Get up! Dressed! You have a long journey to Texas, and you have to start early! Three more days until Tari dies. Wouldn't want that to happen now would ya?" Eurus barked. Henry sat up groggily, rubbing his eyes. "Yeah... sure. Ok, so... Texas? From Chicago?" he jumped out of bed and ran to the dresser, which was fully stocked on clothes. He pulled out a black long sleeved shirt and silver jeans. He put them on hastily and shoved his feet into some old black sandals. He snapped his fingers, and instantly December awoke. He glanced at the alarm clock. "9:00! We're losing time!" He clapped in her face and ran down the halls to awake the others.
Matthew was jerked from his sleep like a magical force was waking him. "Was that you? I was having a good dream! Well... for a demigod." "Too bad. It's already nine, and its like a 6 hour trip to Houston unless you've got anything faster than moonbeams and flying cats! That means we'll get there at what, 3? Then we'll have to find the guy which will take at least an hour, taking us to four. Then, of course, we fight him, taking us to around five. Then it we have to fly to California, find a place to eat, and then go to sleep again. Then that leaves us one more day to find the last evil, fight him, find Prometheus, and fight him! And by then all Hope might be lost from the world and Tari might explode!" Henry shouted, waking Avalon. Matthew grabbed a long, golden, silk shirt and baggy black jeans and ran into the bathroom. Why was Henry so... energetic?
"You might explode and we might fail the quest if you don't get dressed RIGHT NOW!" He ran out of the room. He sat in the main room of Eurus' palace, relaxing a little. He wasn't going to fail yet another quest. He would surely die. He had to convince Zeus that he was a good, brave demigod. He had felt so pathetic yesterday. He wanted that to change. No more pathetic Henry.
Sophia awoke to a certain twelve year old boy stomping down the hallway of the East Wind's palace. Not something that happens every day. She stood up and stretched. She snapped, and her pajamas transformed into black and silver robes. She walked out of the room, ignoring Kira, and sat next to Henry. "How was the daily winding yesterday?" She asked Eurus, reaching for a scone and trying to act nice.
((I almost have a thousand comments on this group *fist pump* yessssss!))Matthew pulled out a box of Special K from his bag, which had appeared next to him on the couch. He reached into the box and grabbed a handful.
"It was quite calm yesterday. Turning to Spring, so my brother is more active now. In the summer I get to relax." He sighed and smiled. "It's nice only working in North America. It used to be that we had to blow for the whole world. Too chaotic and iring. Now we have other gods to do it for us: Shu, Njord, even Aeolus helps a bit." He took a bite of a bagel.
Dawn rolled around in her bed trying to ignore the yelling voices but rolled a little too far aaaaand *bang* Dawn yelped and jumped up. "Owwww..." She said, rubbing her back. She sighed and grabbed some clothes from her pack then ran to the bathroom.
"Oh come on! Cheer up! We could die any moment! Isn't it fun?" Dawn grinned.
"How fantastic and positive." Matthew turned toward the rest of the group. "I assume you heard Henry's yelling about our limited time. Although it was quite loud and obnoxious." He glared at Henry. "It was also true and helpful. If we leave in an hour, that's a six hour flying trip unless we find a private jet available, which would make it four. Then finding and fighting the next evil could take us to around 5:45 ish. Then we gotta have dinner around 6:00, fly to San Fransisco for two hours, then find a another resting place around 8:15. Then we have one more day to find two people and kill two people."
"Trust me, you'll get tired of it. It's not the legit stuff we did on the way here. It's more like a fast boring car ride... on a panther."
"Well, that's positive. Why not say oh yeah it's a load of fun, or something? Sheesh."
"Oh yeah, it's a load of fun!" Matthew said with a facetious positivity.
Dawn sneered at him and grabbed a bagel.
Matthew created corn, popped it in the air, and threw it in his mouth. Henry looked at him weirdly. "Hey, I like to use my powers for food! Wouldn't you too if you could control your bread and rice krispie treats?"
Dawn looked sadly at Tari. "Don't worry."
"Ok, its absolutely no fun at all. Down right useless and boring." Henry said sarcastically, but he wasn't really that far from the truth. Flying was the worst type of travel he could possibly imagine. Not the in-an-airplane kind, but the all-by-yourself-could-plummet-to-your-death-at-any-moment kind.
((i can't write depressed. HOW DO I BE DEPRESSED!))
((that was amazing!!!!!! still, i am forcing my self to correct the tiny mistakes: *eye of the tornado (instead of hurricane) *i wish it weren't (instead of wasnt) and you stole song lyrics! but other wise... THAT WAS AMAING! YOU SHOULD WRITE DEPRESSING BOOKS!)
((erm... hurricanes have eyes... are you sure... well tornadoes definitely do too cause its like swirly grey wind and then the middle where it isnt hitting is the eye... but i guess i have heard " eye of the storm" so i guess hurricane... hermm... well, ill just go with you))
"Do we all have to come!" Henry groaned.
Dawn shuddered. "Shadow travel, creeeeeeeeeeepy!"((When do I get Tali back, by the way? ): I miss her!))
((she can come any time you want as long as she is here at the beginning of the third quest))
((Really? So I can make her magically appear out of nowhere?))
((well... i guess if you have a reason of why she happened to find us and why she is here and how she got here))
((Ahem, she found you because her father came to her in a dream and told her you needed her help, she's there, well, cause her dad told her to come, and she got there by shadow travel. She met another Hades kid and he taught her how or something. :D PLEEEAAAASSSSEEEE?????))
"Okay, how about Avalon goes looking for Prometheus with... how about you Sophia? Then when she finds himshe can shadow travel back to us while Sophia stays there, then transport to Sophia's shadow. Perfect! Any objecters?"
"Awesome! Avalon, you ok with... going with Sophia?"
((oops that was an rp stopper, she's not on. heh. heh. heh.))
((YAY! Tali time! :D And now I have a character to make stupid and not serious she can be all serious and dark. At least until the next quest. Will Dawn be in #3?))Dawn opened her mouth to make a rude remark but heard someone approaching behind her. She jumped to her feet and pulled her bow out. Emerging from the shadows was a girl with lots of scars, black eyes, black hair, and dressed in all black. Emoooooo.... The girl looked at them all and smiled. "Tari! Avalon!"
Talissa had been gone so long, and finally was back. After her talk with father she'd known her role wasn't over. It'd taken her a while to perfect shadow traveling, and a lot of mistakes, but she was finally there. She'd encountered tons of monsters, which sucked, but she was so happy to see them all again. There were tons of people she didn't know too, and a girl was pointing a bow at her... That was a downer.
