So that was something new. She could always just ask instead of being mean enough that people would leave her alone. A small bit of surprise flashed over her face, then was replaced by her normal mean exterior. "Good."
" ok" Connor got up, readjusting his swords and continued walking down the path.
Honey watched him go for a couple seconds, then jumped down from the tree. "Wait... Who are you?" she asked.
" names Connor" He kept walking. Not really thinking she wanted him to stop.
"The Ares kid, right?" she asked, jogging up to him.
" yeah." Connor looked at her. " you almost said that like you don't like ares kids"
"Yeah well they aren't exactly the best people in the world," she said with a small roll of her eyes. "They are sometimes worse than monsters."
" well I won't argue with that. Some of my brothers or sisters can be very mean" Connor smiled
"They're a bit more than mean in my opinion," she said and pushed a strand of black hair from her eyes.
" well that's true as well" Connor shrugged. Smiling. He kept walking, keeping at a slow enough pace for her.
"So I'm guessing you're gonna go back to camp now. Not that I'm complaining, but I mean this has been so wonderful," Honey said sarcastically.
" I am not going back yet" connor chuckled. " I don't run away from monsters so why should I run from a girl"
"Would it make much of a difference if the girl was a monster, killing wise, I mean?" she asked before realizing how stupid she was.
" no. Your not a monster, your just a simple girl." connor smiled. Trying to be nice to her.
Well she was lucky that she was talking to him instead of some other Ares kid. "Whatever you think. Anyways, what do you guys mostly do in camp?"
" me.. Well I am never really at camp. I am normally either on vacation or always sent away on some quest" Connor looked at her.
"Hm. Personally I don't like the outside world, I feel much safer in here than outside the borders." She looked up at the quickly darkening sky, the sun was setting. She shivered slightly as she was beginning to get a bit cold.
Connor noticed her shiver, stopping for a second. Taking off his swords he takes off his jacket. Handing it to her. " the outside world to me. Is fun"
She froze for a second, surprised that he would do something nice for someone who had been so mean to him. She then began to walk again. "You've probably had less happen out there to you then I have."
Connor walked after, still insisting on her taking the jacket. " try Me" he smiled. " my childhood was never anything to smile upon"
She took it with a small smile -the first that he had seen from her, might I add- and wrapped the jacket around her shoulders. "I sincerely doubt that your past is worse than mine."
((Ugh I ship them I'm sorry but they're so cute.))
Connor was shocked that she had actually smiled, but he enjoyed it. " well then tell me about yours?"
"I grew up in a poor house and being the youngest of seven children I was kicked out onto the streets to fend for myself. It was horrible. People would just do whatever they wanted with me, like I was nothing but a toy. Monsters attacked. Then I came here, expecting for people to like me, but they didn't. Then one thing led to another and..." She looked down at her combat boots, not smiling any longer.
" well your not alone. A lot of kids here are treated poorly. And the reason why most kids are mean, is because they are jealous of you" Connor looks at her.
She shook her head. "It wasn't jealousy, I promise you that."
" you would be surprised. But we came here to get away from all those people." Connor smiled.
She smiled again slightly, bumping him with her shoulder. "Stop it, I'm supposed to be sad."
" well you don't look as sad now as you did earlier" Connor smiled again.
She was about to say something when she heard a sound that she knew all too well. It was the sound of a monster approaching, judged by the low growl. Honey, on reflex, turned into a bird and Connor's jacket fell to the ground.
Connor heard it too. But smiled. " can't ever just do it the easy way" connor put his hood up. Nodding his head down a mask covered his face now. Pulling out a sword and leaving another sheathed, he was ready for what was coming.
Honey flew up into a tree. She was a small bird and really couldn't do anything. A hellhound jumped from the bushes nearby and growled at Connor, baring it's teeth.
Connor spun his sword in his hand, " a hellhound.. This is going to be fun"
The hellhound jumped at him, unaware that what it was doing was incredibly stupid.
Connor sidestepped, bring up his sword and chopped. It was a death blow but maybe he could play with it first.
The hellhound dodged the chop, still growling. It's red eyes flashed.
Connor grabbed both swords from his back, twirling them in his hands. " come on beast"
The hellhound ran at him once more, attempting to pounce on the son of Ares.
Connor let the beast pounce, bringing his swords up while he fell back. Hoping they would cut open its stomach.
The swords did cut it's stomach and the beast jumped back from him and stumbled a bit. It wouldn't die for a minute or two, but it would definitely die.
" come on. One last strike to kill you"
Connor taunted the beast. Waiting for the right moment.
Connor taunted the beast. Waiting for the right moment.
The monster let out a low growl and stumbled again.
" come on!" Connor taunted again. He wanted to show what he was made of.
The hellhound ran at Connor one more time, knowing that it was going to die anyways.
Connor turned and found a tree their, running up the tree a few feet then jumping off, turning in midair and brining his sword down on its head.
The hellhound exploded into golden dust, covering Connor. Honey shifted back into a person and jumped down from the tree. "You know, that would be scary but now you look like a fairy princess," she said with a smirk, wiping some of the dust off of his cheek.
" yes.. This fairy princess is pretty good with his swords" Connor chuckled, sheathing his swords.
Her smirk grew. "And you better not get any of that crap in my hair, it'll take me years to get it all out." She wiped the dust on her hand onto his back.
Connor smiled." It's not the bad. Here try it" he rubbed some on her cheek.
