The plans for the next project were done at last. It had taken Luna three days and four night to finish them. Once they were done Luna had fallen asleep nearly right after, just to be woken up by one of her brothers telling her she was late for Archery Class. Luna remembered with a smile how she rushed down there, but had forgotten her shoes, and with irony, the archery bow Luna had made for herself. Understandably enough, Luna decided to take the rest of the day off from the Forge, though had to put up with jokes the rest of the day, to which Luna just laughed along with.
Luna didn't think what she had done was to great, though it made her extremely tired by the time she was done. For the most part it was just new weapon designs and extra arrow supplies, a ton of them actually, but still not to amazing none the less. So many people at camp, including the Hero of Olympus himself, seemed to be getting extremely nervous about Phobos, Luna herself hasn't gotten to much information yet, but she knew Phobos was involved. That is what had inspired Luna to work on new weapons and extra arrows, she figured they made meed them.
The daughter of Hephaestus tried to get into her work once she had began. Luna didn't figure it a good idea to worry about Phobos while she was working. If Luna had learned one thing since she learned Hephaestus was her father, it was thoughts of any kind blocked concentration. Though Luna couldn't help still having Phobos on the edge of her thoughts while she worked. It turns out Phobos distracted her to much. While her thoughts were elsewhere, Luna ended up cutting a bit of her arm on a sharp blade.
Luna jumped back and swore. She turned of the machine and sat on a workbench. She put her mouth to the small cut on her arm. It may have been small but it really hurt. Luna began to suck the blood off it, a habit she's had with small wounds since she was little. Luna decided to just sit for a few minutes. Once she took a minute to look around Luna realized noone else was there. It made Luna wised she had someone to talk to. She just sat back and hoped someone to show up before she decides to start working again.

This had to be the very first time in her two going on three years at camp that Sophie had ever come to the armory. There was so much going on and though she hardly had the time practice with a small knife in her hand, she thought she go and make sure it was perfect. As she sat there for a minute on the rocks by the lake, she studied it. Honestly, she wanted to know why and how her step-father had sent it to her. It was really beautiful and he perfect shape and such for her but still? One, she, and he knew she would only use a bow and two? Well why would he send it at all. He never talked to her or anything. But someone back up the Big House said it was fine and safe to use… alright then.
As her bow and arrows where safely on her back, and her new knife by her side. She wondered if someone wanted it or not? Honestly she was happy with her bow and arrows. They were hard to damage and because of her father it was hard to lose them as they kept coming back to her. With that they really have came in handy. Hopefully they wouldn’t let her down, when she went on the quest with Gavin and Harper and they wouldn’t let her down with it came to the next war coming up. Though nothing had been said, she had this feeling that something big was going to happen thanks to one of the minor gods. Hecate? Phobos? Eris? They all seemed smart to start something bad as another war. And with the thought of that… who would be the so called seven? She wouldn’t know what she would do at the top of her head if she was one…
As she made it to the armory, Soph looked inside and saw someone in pain. Blood. She looked away for a moment. “Hello. Do you need help? I never was good at the whole healing thing from my father, but I could give it a try?” she replied going over and setting her things down. “I’m Sophie. Daughter of Apollo. You’re Luna right?” she asked. Though Luna was only a year or two younger then here, Soph remembered that Luna was one of those she saw only two years ago when she came to camp at the age of sixteen.

Luna was just about to give up on someone showing when she saw a head from brown hair. She looked at the girl to find that she recognized her, though it took her second to think of who she was exactly. Sophie. Cabin Seven. Great at Archery. Luna prayed she was right and didn't end up looking like a complete idiot. "Hello." she said,taking her mouth off her small cut. Luna noticed it was still bleeding a bit. Luna listened as she asked about the wound. "Oh no, just a little thing, nothing to really worry about." she said. Relief washed over her as the girl introduced herself to be exactly who Luna thought she was. Sophie, daughter of Apollo. Well, Luna usually was a luck guesser.
"Yeah i'm Luna." she said. "Nice to meet you Sophie." Right then Luna realized this was the first time she had ever seen this girl at the Armory. It made her wonder what brought her here in the first place. Now see, Luna can be a blunt person, and she decided to be that moment. "What brings you down here Sophie?" Luna asked. Her mind began to wonder a bit while waiting for an answer, but Luna was able to stop that fairly quickly.
That moment, Luna thought of something. Maybe Sophie knew something about what was up with Phobos? Maybe, Luna didn't think she wanted to risk looking nosy. Then they might not tell her anything. She was conflicted on what would be best to do. After a couple moments she came to her decision. Luna never cared what the consequences were before, why start now? It would be unlike her. "Do you know anything about what's up with Phobos?" Luna asked with a stab at airiness that she was sure that failed. Now Luna could feel herself being nervous.
"Not as if it matters though..." was Luna's poor attempt at a save. Still studying the girl, Luna realized she had a knife at her side. Right then Luna's imagination took over. She had a sudden vision of Sophie pulling back the knife and stabbing her. Luna gave an almost inaudible giggle and shook those thoughts away, they were not helping her here. A sudden feeling of awkwardness came into the room and Luna realized how awkward this situation turned out to be. Luna tried to find a way to turn the situation back around.

“Are you sure? I maybe only good at archery and not the best healer but I could always give it a try?” Luna seemed like she was sure, so Soph dropped it, which was not really like Sophie. Sophie always kept going on and on, making sure everyone was okay and fine, always. Sophie was not really surprised to see a child of Hephaestus here. Every time she just would be walking by it was always the guys down here, never Luna, Soph thought was the only girl.
“You as well. I’m sorry we haven’t actually met before. I mean I’ve seen you around but I think this is the first time I’ve actually met you” she replied looking at the girl. Though this is the first time they actually met the girl seemed much like Sophie: super kind, trustworthy, caring and collected. And yes, Soph got that just by looking at the girl. Sophie was just that good at reading people. Mortal, god and demi-god alike. “Honestly? No reason. I was just bring down this knife down here, in case anyone wanted to use or have it. My step-father sent it to me but I honestly have no use for it” Soph shrugged, setting the knife down on the table. She didn’t have to ask why Luna was down here. A child of Hephaestus was always here.
It seemed Luna, like Sophie knew there was something up. But Luna seemed more up to speed then she. So maybe Luna knew more, and could maybe give her a couple of answers. AND maybe it could help Soph recalculate her dreams. Though that might be better to know and get answers from a son or daughter of Morpheus? If that was the god/ goddess of dreams. “Phobos?” Sophie find herself asking out loud. Well there was an obvious answer to all the rumors going around camp. About a minor god or goddess wanting to finish was Kronus started (well finished), what two years ago? The truth running through Sophie’s mind? Yes and no. But if she answered yes she wouldn’t be able to describe it, would she? No. “To be honest, I don’t really know. I mean I have heard the rumors going around camp and such, but that’s about it,” she replied honestly. “I really do wish I knew what was going on though. I hate being in the dark.”
"Not as if it matters though..." “Yeah,” Soph found herself saying. Truth be told it probably mattered a lot. Now so many thought went through her mind. “Have you heard anything? I mean about… you know things going on?” Soph knew better then to speak about different god. Especially the really terrible ones. And she knew better not to say there names out loud. Though even though she just said his name out loud, she would take it back, if she could. Sophie was not known to make enemies with anyone, not even gods or goddess, as she had befriended a couple of them. But Phobos? No comment…

Luna smiled when Sophie asked again. She seemed to be the kind of person that would care enough to ask again. As well as she seemed smart enough to know that Luna wasn't going to accept the help, so had dropped the subject. Luna gave her credit there. She probably wouldn't have gone as far to ask a second time. Luna let her head rest on one hand while letting her eyes drop a bit. Luna was still a bit tired. Though it wasn't like Luna was going to fall asleep on her or something though.
After a moment, Luna listened as Sophie said of how they never met before. "I've seen you a few times, but your right, we've never talked before." she said, the smile disappearing slightly. Luna tilted her head a bit when Sophie said about her knife, then a huge smile broke out on her face. This could be fun. "If you let me borrow it, I could make it into something completely awesome. Just give me the details and i'll take care of it." Luna said, eyes twinkling. She was always looking for opportunities like this and she has since she came here.
Sophie definitely knew something was wrong, as Luna did. Though it seemed most of her knowledge came from rumors. Not the most reliable source, though can be entertaining. At that thought, Luna's smile got big again. "All I really know is that Phobos is the ring leader of whatever is going on." She said with confidence that she didn't have very often. If her recent dreams made anything sure it was that Phobos is involved. Most of the dreams were fuzzy, leaving Luna with a headache by the time she woke up. But everything that Luna did remember she told Chiron, who had simply nodded with a grave face and thanked her for letting him know.
It turns out Luna fail save wasn't needed, Sophie seemed ready to do information back Phobos. "What have you heard?" Luna asked. Maybe she could do something with enough knowledge, maybe even talk Chiron into a quest. He might met her to, if someone asked her if Mr.D would she would have laughed, or maybe her would let her go, her wants them all dead anyway. She was suddenly aware of her necklace from Hephaestus around her neck. It may have been her imagination, but it seemed to be becoming warmer around her neck. Luna wondered what she that was about, or if Hephaestus was trying to give a message to her.

“Yeah I find that sad. Though I’m an all year round camper it seems like I never get to talk to a lot of people I see. But then again I’m always at the archery fields,” she sighed silently to herself. A lot of people here, minus the Ares siblings, seemed really nice and kind. It was a shame to know that but never getting to actually talk to people. A lot of the people here seemed smart too. Yes even the Aphrodite siblings, despite there minds being all-about-me-and-my-beauty, they are pretty smart. Sophie thought that was maybe why she liked it here so much and she thought maybe that’s why she could fit in so easily. Sophie smiled and pushed the knife over to Luna. “Nah go ahead and take it. I honestly don’t need another weapon other then my bow and arrows. It may not seem like they would be faster then a knife or sword, but I honestly think I’m one of the fastest here. I think that’s because I’m always practing though.” she replied.
Phobos. Out of all the gods and goddess he seemed to be up to the most. Then again he always was. Sophie really hoped that he wouldn’t interfere with Harper’s quest. That would totally be not cool. Nodding, Soph stood there in thought. So Kronus was gone, wasn’t he? So wouldn’t that convince all evil, don’t even try? That would be the smart idea to not try…so what now? “Honestly I have not heard that much… just that Phobos might be behind it is all. I myself have my own thoughts…. she explained. There was a brush of warmness on her neck and that meant one thing. Something she knew well by now. She looked up at the sky to feel the sun. Whatever was coming was going to be there sooner then later then what they all had been expected.

Sophie was starting to remind Luna of herself, on counts of sociability anyway. She couldn't have agreed more about how they should have talked to a few more people here. They'd have to hang out sometime. "Yeah I know, trust me." she said. Her mind seemed to slip away again, focusing on other things. It decided to stop when Sophie passed her the knife she wanted to change."Yay!" Luna said and grinned. This weapon she might keep for herself. "Thank you!" Luna said. Only a Hephaestus kid could be this happy about some thing like this.
Phobos lingered in her thoughts, not even the ADHD would keep him away. It seemed that was the only thing that stayed on her mind regardless of it. Maybe she would get herself a quest soon as she thought before. She was sure she could manage talking one of them into it. Luna would probably invite Sophie along, and maybe one her brothers. That thought made her think of how friendless she really was, then decided not to give herself a pity party. A lingering feeling of sadness stayed with her though.
Her necklace felt even warmer now, it hurt a bit. Luna decided that she would put it in her pocket. Gently, Luna reached her hands up to the back of her neck and unhooked the necklace and just held it in her hand for a second. That's when she noticed something near it's name. Luna turned it over and looked and nearly dropped it. Next to the word Flame was the word Fear. This confused her. Was it a message from Hephaestus or Phobos messing with her. Luna stuffed it in her pocket and tired to act as if nothing happened.
Sophie heard rumors?As said, unreliable, but amusing to any point.What have you heard?
Words: 310 My god this is short, sorry. [/center]

“Anytime. Its really no big deal. As I said I prefer my bow any day. Its a lot faster for me,” She smiled a bit. You would think that a bow would take longer. Wrong. Sophie was fast. Then again she had started archery when she was about ten so eight years now. And coming to camp made her one of the best after training two years straight pretty much twenty-four seven. So what if she was a perfectionist? When it came to being a demi-god that could be a life saver. Really. It did come in handy. She hoped it would come in handy when going with Harper and Gavin on Harper’s quest. What would happen on the quest? If something did happen, what if it happen to her? What of her and Hayden then? Why of all reasons now was she thinking negative thoughts of all times NOW of the quest? Especially when they were leaving in a day or two? Darn ADHD mixing her thoughts around. Blah she would blame Phoebes later for these feelings of nervousness. Sophie swore that he better not try anything or he would have her to listen to. Sophie of course had her own fears but she would put everything behind in to look out for her little sister and her little sister’s boyfriend.
There it was again. That sudden brush of warmness on her neck. It was a bit warmer. You’re time will come were you will have to choose a side she heard the familiar voice in the back of her head. “What the heck is that suppose to mean?” she accidently replied out loud. No answer. She looked at Luna. “Sorry… that was not towards you or anything…” she quickly looked to the sun then back. “Honestly that’s about it. I’m hoping to learn more when I go on a up coming quest with my little sister and her boyfriend. she explained.
