Cahira: Work was crazy today. Cahira had to clean kennels, swipe and mop the floors, feed the animals, greet people, help bring drop offs to the exam room; adopt animals out, gets animals meds. Too, much to handle in just two messily hours she normally works five hours a day but on weekends they allow her to work two hours so that way she can get some schooling done or allow her to have a life other than work all the time. Cahira doesnâ€™t mind working at the animal shelter it keep her on her feet and moving around. Cahira has ADHD and dyslexia; everyday life can be hard, especially, when you get bored too easily after twelve minutes. Cahira made her way to the arcade to meet up with some friends. She made plans with them to head to the movies. Thereâ€™s a new movie that her friends want to see. A gust of wind blew. Cahiraâ€™s strawberry blonde hair covered her face blinding her. As soon as that happened she felt someoneâ€™s hand cover her mouth, then grabbed one of her arms pulling her somewhere. Her heart pounded from fear then instinct kicked in. She whirled around and did a karate kick towards the kidnapperâ€™s face at least she thought that was where she was kicking towards. But her foot went through a wooden crate she heard shatter. The person gave out an impressed whistle, who was obviously male, before she could move the hair from her face so she could totally kick butt she felt something sting her neck. The next thing she knew he legs went numb and caved. She fell but she was caught before she hit the ground. â€œYou are dead.â€ She managed to say before blacking out.

Once I went downstairs I immediately heard someone's voice. It seemed angry and tense and by the time I got downstairs I could see Silas pushing past two guys that were just coming in. "Silas!" I started after him but something got in my way. At first I was convinced it was a stubborn horse then I looked up. It had the body of a horse but instead of a head and neck there was a torso of a man maybe in his late forties or early fifties. "I am sorry Miss Bianci but I have to talk with you." The man-horse said. I racked my brains for what history called something like him. A centaur, half-man half-horse and all freaky. "What?" I hissed. "I assume you have questions." The centaur continued noting my bad attitude so far. "Yeah just one." I stopped, "Do police have an orange jumpsuit that can fit you?" The centaur looked confused. I rolled my eyes as Jackie gasped once she caught on. "You know kidnapping is a crime right?" I said matter-of-factly. "But we haven't kidnapped you, you came to us." The centaur went on. "Your keeping me here against my will, I think that qualifies as kidnapping." I said before detouring around him and out of the barn-style house. I heard Jackie as she ran after me. "Wait! You can't leave!" She may be older but I have a zero-tolerance for my "elders". I turned around to face her. "I can't exactly leave with someone tailing my every move now can I?" I continued walking dodging as many people as possible. "Wait, can I at least show you around?" Jackie asked oh so politely. I nodded. I didn't have anywhere else to go to. Then out of nowhere an annoyingly familiar ringing came to my ears. I patted my pockets and pulled out my little outdated Razor. How? That crazy Ares chick threw it to its death! I flipped my cell open. On the screen was a picture of fresh baked bread followed by a number. Ricky. I put the phone to my ear and immediately could tell this wouldn't be so great. "Ash! Where on earth have you been? I've been trying to get a hold of you for hours! Your mom said you weren't at the house. Where are you?" "Calm down Ricky, I'm alright. I'm-" That's when Jackie ripped the phone out of my hands. "Are you crazy?! You know this is just a way to get monsters here right?" Jackie whispered looking up at the clear blue sky. "Give me my phone." I said threateningly. Jackie just shook her head and raised the phone as high as she could before throwing it, into the lake. "What the hell? That was my phone!" "You have to be careful. Now come on!" Jackie barked and started off. I followed her fuming. Jackie showed me around camp. I was seriously mad at her about throwing my phone away until she showed me the Apollo cabin. It could be called basically my "heaven". Guitars, paints, easels, and everything an artist could ever want! "Come on you have to sleep in the Hermes cabin until your claimed." "Claimed? Like by your-" "Godly parent yeah." Jackie lead me to a plain almost normal looking cabin except that it was crammed full of people. "Chose any free bunks and put your stuff there." Jackie said before going out. I weaved my way around kids and teenagers to get to a empty bunk in the corner. I piled the clothes I got from the box onto the top bunk. "Lemme guess newcomer?" A guy asked. I looked down at the bottom bunk to see a guy maybe 16 with light brown hair and pale blue eyes. "Yeah. I'm Ashley." I hand my hand out. The guy got out of his bunk to stand. He was easily a head taller than me. "Dan, I'm the camp's best prankster." He said with a mischievous smile. "You wish Dan, I have to be the best." a girl from a bunk near us yelled. I took that as my cue to leave so I escaped around the piles of stuff on the floor. That's when my imagination kicked in. I had just barely made it out of the cabin when I saw something. Instead of the rest of the camp I saw the city in ruins underneath the ocean. I began walking blindly finding my way to some art supplies. I walked into the Apollo cabin and thankfully it was empty. I picked up a paint pallet and started painting. When I heard a gasp I stopped my frenzy and looked up. Jackie was in the doorway. "I'm sorry I just-" Jackie cut me off and took a look at my painting. It was New York City I could tell by the skyscrapers and stores and such but something was wrong. It was completely underwater. "How did you draw this?" I shrugged. "I paint. I just saw the image in my head and I had to paint it. It's sort of a crazy habit of mine. "But your eyes, they looked like they were glazed over. We need to see Chiron."

05-22-2011 at 2:46 AM

Silas began to walk again. Ashley followed behind obviously trying to keep her mouth shut. "Hey I need to show you guys around camp. Considering you must be a half-blood as well since you got through the magical barrier that protects the camp." A girlâ€™s voice shouted from behind. Silas and Ashley both turned around to face her. "Can't I just go back to D.C?" Ashley asked almost sounding bratty. The girl shook her head. "Katie said she found you near a couple of hellhounds. That would mean being outside the camp wouldn't be a safe idea." After the girl had said that Ashley looked up Silas looking right at his neck then she looked at her cloths which were covered in mud and dried blood. "I can't go anywhere in these." Ashley proclaimed. â€œGirls,â€ Silas snorted. "A package arrived just after you got here. It was sent for you." The girl said immediately. Then the girl led Ashley to the huge barn. Silas decided to follow he kept his distance for he has a feeling that there was a powerful person somewhere near the barn. When Silas entered the barn cautiously he saw Ashley disappearing upstairs. â€œHi. Iâ€™m Jackie.â€ The girl who spoke to them not even two minutes ago introduced herself. The tone in her voice seemed wary. She seemed to be paying attention to Silasâ€™ left eye. â€œHey,â€ Silas replied quietly. He isnâ€™t the type of person who really likes conversations. So, heâ€™s trying to act like he wasnâ€™t interested. â€œWhatâ€™s your name?â€ Jackie asked. â€œItâ€™s Silas.â€ â€œSilas,â€ She repeated. â€œNice to meet you, Iâ€™ll be taking you and your friend to Cabin Eleven as soon as Ashley comes back.â€ She grinned. â€œNo thanks, I would rather sleep in the woods.â€ Silas protested. There was no way he was gong to sleep in a cabin. Several days ago he happened to come across a camp ground and he snuck into one of the cabins and nearly passed out by the horrid smell of mold and rotting wood. â€œOh no, no, no the woods are dangerous, the only time anyone is allowed to go in the woods is when they get permission to train or when we play capture the flag!â€ She said warning Silas waving her hands in front of her. â€œWhatever, I am not like everyone else here!â€ Silas didnâ€™t mean to shout. â€œOf course, you arenâ€™t no one here is normal.â€ Jackieâ€™s check flushed pink; obviously she was starting to get upset. â€œThatâ€™s not what mean you little runt.â€ Silas said harshly looking down at the girl who was five inches shorter than he was. â€œI am NOT a demigod!â€ Jackie looked surprised. She wasnâ€™t expecting him to tell her that. â€œThen what are you!?â€ She asked madly. Silas was starting to feel feverish like the time he had transformed into his true form and accidently killing Ashley. Just then a sound of hooves appeared along with some foot steps of two people. â€œPlease no arguing in here or you two will wake Mr. D.â€ A man, or Centaur Silas should say, spoke. Silas glanced up at him. The Centaur was standing directly behind him. â€œYou are one of the two that were brought here?â€ He asked Silas. â€œYes, I am,â€ Silas said annoyed his fever was getting worse. â€œAh. Good I needed to talk to one of you, I am Chiron Iâ€™m the mentor of Camp Half-Blood.â€ He said giving a welcoming smile. Silas looked away. He figured he should go before he does something heâ€™ll regret. â€œI am not exactly on the mood to talk.â€ He began. â€œAlso, I am not safe to be around with.â€ He admitted. Then he quickly left the barn passing the two that came into the barn with Chiron. Those two were beefy looking kids they also had smudged look on their faces like they wanted to fight someone. â€œAresâ€™ kids,â€ Silas told himself once he was outside of the barn.

05-20-2011 at 7:51 PM

(( I'm back people!!! yep my brain has finally decided to work again and things have calmed down a bit at my house)) â€œIâ€™m alright. I am just thinking.â€ A likely excuse. I walked with him trying like crazy to just keep my mouth shut. I felt like I was in a trance, I was walking I just didn't know why. I didn't like it here, mainly because I kinda was in denial over the whole I'm half god thing. I mean no way is that even remotely possible. I walked in silence for about three seconds when Jackie caught up. "Hey I need to show you guys around camp. Considering you must be a half-blood as well since you got through the magical barrier that protects the camp." Jackie said to Silas. I rolled my eyes I didn't want to stay here but I didn't want to go home either. "Can't I just go back to D.C?" I asked trying my best not to sound bratty. Jackie shook her head. "Katie said she found you near a couple of hellhounds. That would mean being outside the camp wouldn't be a safe idea." I remembered Silas got his neck torn apart by that hellhound. I looked at Silas then tried to see the back of his neck, I couldn't his hair was to long but it didn't look like he had a bandage around his neck. I looked down at my pants they were covered in dried flecks of blood and mud. "I can't go anywhere in these." I said trying to get most of the caked on mud off. Jackie nodded. "A package arrived just after you got here. It was sent for you." Jackie lead me to the Big House as she called it. I went inside and to my right the ping pong table stood although this time no one stood around it. Jackie picked up a good sized box from in front of the big fireplace and opened it up. Inside were some clothes from my closet, I recognized the vibrant skinny jeans and the artistically paint-splattered plain shirts. I dug out a pair of purple jeans and a bright white shirt that was dotted in brightly colored splatters. This was definitely my stuff down to a T. "Who-" I started by Jackie cut me off with a shrug. She didn't know either. I went upstairs to the room I slept in last night and changed.

05-17-2011 at 2:00 AM

(Awwww, *Hugs Ashley* Hope things get better!)

05-16-2011 at 7:12 PM

((I am not going to be able to reply for a bit due to 1)having my mind being unresponsive and 2)Someone in my family just died so that may be a reason for not being able to think straight I'm sorry, I'll be back as soon as I can))

05-14-2011 at 7:53 AM

"Silas! Are you alright?" Silas heard a familiar voice nearby. He looked away from the Satyr and saw Ashley running towards him. He stopped in his tracks and then looked away. He was feeling stressed. Being surrounded by slayers would do that to a person or hellhound in this case. Ashley slowed down to a walk when she was inches away from Silas she stopped a look of concerned. â€œIâ€™m alright. I am just thinking.â€ He grinned though he was half lying.

05-14-2011 at 7:29 AM

I awoke early even though I so desperately wanted sleep. The rays of the sun were just penetrating through the curtain over the bedroom when I got out of bed. More like dragged myself out of bed. I felt grimmy in my muddied jeans and t-shirt but there wasn't much I could do about it. I walked out of the room and down the stairs. I went down another floor before seeing a group gathered around a messed up ping pong table. There were maybe twelve or thirteen people gathered around the table. Most had knifes out or embedded inside the wood. Their augmentative voices lowered as I came into view. A girl about my age but really short, with short black hair approached me with a smile. "Hello my name's Jackie, you must be our new arrival." She held out her hand for me to shake it. I have a bad quality for trusting strangers but I wasn't about to take her hand. Instead I stared at it until she lowered it. "I'll show you around camp and explain things, I'm betting your all freaked out by all of this?" She asked a bit concerned. I gave her a warning look. "I''d say that would be an understatement. I need a phone, I need to call my mom." I said probably sounding like a whiny brat. Jackie nodded and went outside. "Now we don't use cell phones in camp, the only way you'll be able to talk to her is by IMing her." I raised an eyebrow. "Instant message?" Jackie slapped her forehead and laughed. "No so forgot your a newbie. IM; Iris Message." Iris? "Wait the Greek goddess of rainbows?" I asked confused. Jackie nodded. "You'll see." Jackie grabbed a gold coin from one of the passing teenagers here. There were a lot of people here and all over them seemed to have some kind of armor on. Jackie then went to a car wash sprayer. She stood next to the wheel that turned the water on. "Now what you do is when I turn the water on I want you to throw that coin into the created rainbow and say your mom's name and address okay?" I nodded and gripped the coin. Jackie turned the water on and the rainbow came from the spray of water. I threw the coin in just like she told me to expecting it to just fall to the ground but instead it disappeared. "Um, Bianca Bianchi, 2064 Olympus Drive Washington D.C. please." The rainbow changed from the water spraying to the view over my art room. The art works were all over the walls but mom was sitting in front of particular painting. It was the one I was going to take in as a substitute for my essay. It was a very well done painting of a sculpture. It looked like most of the pictures of the Greek god Apollo that I'd researched after I'd done the painting. "Mom!" I yelled happily. She seemed to have been spooked but when she saw my face poking out of a rainbow. "Ashley! I figured you might have been taken to the camp." I looked at her with my usual puzzled expression. "You knew I'd come to this camp?" I asked horrified. Mom nodded. "It was only a matter of time before the monsters caught up with you." She said a bit sadly. I blinked in surprise. "So you knew, you knew all along?" Mom wrung her fingers and nodded, "I can't believe you! You kept my history from me? How could you?" I stalked off away from the image in the rainbow. "Ashley!" I heard Jackie yell as she turned off the water. I continued walking away holding back any emotion from the talk with my mother. That's when I saw Silas following a satyr. Oh no, I remembered last night he said something about wanting a juicy Satyr. I walked after him ignoring Jackie. I actually couldn't believe he was even up and walking after losing so much blood. "Silas! Are you alright?" I asked as I caught up with him. His expression was tense and alert like any of these kids could gut him like a fish in less than a minute.

05-14-2011 at 5:39 AM

Silas: Silas didnâ€™t know what was going on. He felt his body being lifted after he felt himself falling most likely he hit the ground. After that he didnâ€™t know what was happening. What felt like hours he finally woke up fully aware of every thing; hellhounds heal fast so he wasnâ€™t surprised to see the sky starting to brighten. He felt the back of his neck. There was a bandaged and he took it off and then felt his neck. No wound no scars. He sighed somewhat relieved. Silas slowly climbed from out of the cot he was in for he knew he had lost quite a bit of blood. So, moving slowly wouldnâ€™t case him to have a dizzy spill. He sniffed the air he smelt the strawberries and also he smelt humans. Not so many humans like the city more like a very, very small town. But these humans have a particular smell. They were demigods. Like Ashley and that one girl who they came across with the curly hair. He stood up and walked to the door. He didnâ€™t stagger and his head didnâ€™t feel dizzy at all. Once outside he saw kids around eight to nineteen-year-olds going about their day. Most were wearing orange t-shirts with words printed on them. Camp Half-blood,, he sighed when he realized that he is at the demigod camping and training ground. â€œPerfect.â€ He said annoyed for these kids could kill him when they find out what he really is. Just then he heard running hooves on wooden flooring Silas glanced to his left to see a satyr coming his way. Silas mouth watered but he let the Satyr run past him and he left him alone. If he attempts anything he would be done for. He wondered where the Satyr was going in such a hurry so he walked in the direction the satyr had gone.

Kara plays with Mrs. O'Leary for a couple hours and watches as Mrs. O'Leary slowly tires out. "Alright girl; have you had enough?" She pats Mrs. O'Leary's head then walks off to go to her cabin. Baaaaaaaa! The conch horn is blown. Kara hops off of her bunk and races to go eat. Once she's gotten her food she goes up to the fire and slides a juicy piece of meat in. "To Athena," She murmers, "Help us win our battles." She then returns to her table and eats the rest of her food with her cabin.

Kara walks around the camp; looking for something to do. I've looked at all of my battle strategies, she thinks,so what else is there to do? Sword fight - no one would want to practice on a gloomy day like this. Climb the wall? - beaten it a million times; I've got nothing to prove. UG! I'm SO bored! Chiron walks up to Kara. "My dear, if you're looking for something to do just go see Mrs. O'Leary. She'll help you do something." "Of course! Thanks Chiron!" Kara rushes off to find the old hellhound. "Mrs. O'Leary! Want to play girl?" When she reaches the sword arena, Mrs. O'Leary bounds up to her and tackles her. "Hey, whoa there girl." Kara grabs a nearby sheild and tosses it for Mrs, O'Leary. "Go get it girl!" Mrs. O'Leary bounds off to get the sheild. (Hows that? Better?)

I have never before ridden a pegasus and nor I have I ever ridden one with an unconscious guy bleeding to death. That part kind took a little of the thrill away considering I was getting blood all over my shirt from flyaway specks.Not fun at all. His neck was still really really bloody and shredded and there wasn't anything I could do as we flew out of D.C. Just as night fell I looked back, in the distance I could still see the Washington Monument way off in the distance and sighed unhappily. I wasn't home anymore. D.C had been my home for as long as I could remember, though I've moved around D.C a lot due to being kicked out my school after school, I was still in D.C with the White House and the Monument. I just couldn't believe I was leaving. Somewhere around ten o'clock I felt a vibrating in my pocket. I took out my old out-dated phone to see someone was calling me. I also saw I had five bars up here. Wow I get really great reception in the sky. I recognized the number: Mom. Mom was calling, unfortunately due to the sound of the howling wind this far up I wouldn't be able to call her. I ignored the call and tried getting the phone back into my pocket when Katie flew over and noticed it. "Can I see that?!" she yelled over the wind. I nodded and reached out as far as I could to drop the phone in her outstretched hand. Once the little metal phone was in her grasp she threw it with all her might back down to Earth. "What the heck? That was my phone you idiot!" I yelled at her. "I'm sorry but using cell phones are like putting up a neon sign saying,'Hey look nice tasty demigod buffet!'" Demigod? Where have I heard that term before? Oh yeah we covered Greek heroes last week in class. Some claimed to be demigods, half mortal half god. "So wait, your saying I'm a demigod?" Katie nodded, "Your insane! That's impossible!" I yelled. She laughed, "Have you ever known both of your biological parents?" I opened my mouth to speak but it was pointless, I knew my mom but I had no clue who my father was. Mom didn't like to talk about him, especially in front of Charly. She promised that if I went to Greece with her she'd tell me what my father was like. But now I didn't even know when I was going back home again. We continued to fly through the night until the pegasi went into an unexpected dive bomb to the ground. Right when we were about to land I saw Silas's eyes open for a second and he opened his mouth and said something. â€œLamb chops sounds tasty,â€ He slurred, â€œOr, a tasty Satyr would be nice.â€ Satyr? Before I could ask if he'd like it fried or boiled we leveled out to touch the ground. Soon we hit level ground. I jumped off the horse and fell to my knees. Never in my life was I so happy to be on the ground. Of course my moment of joy in being on land ended when I heard a thump. Without me making sure Silas stayed in an upright position he fell to the ground with a horrible thump. I got up and quickly rolled him back onto his side to check his neck. The blood flow had started again so all I could do was press the soiled jacket piece to his neck. I probably looked crazy with my hands stained red from his blood. My once clean neon yellow jeans were now a muddied yellow with what looked like paint splatters of red. "Just stay here and I'll go get some help okay?" Katie said jumping off her pegasus. I nodded and kept wiping away the fresh blood from his neck. Katie sure took her dear sweet time. I was still sitting on the slope of the hill a few minutes later and still no one was here. Thats when she and three other people came into sight. A guy with the same sun kissed blonde hair as mine knelt down by Silas, while a girl pulled me up. I was tired and hungry and on the point of fainting considering I have had way to much freakish things happen today. Knowing that Silas was in some degree safe I allowed myself to be led to some kind of house. It was tall and painted a shabby blue, nothing I was used to. I didn't pay attention to the inside just followed someone up to a room with a bed. I plopped onto the bed and then curled up in the center. I fell asleep immediately.

Silas: Silas knew that he could easily have died, but he knew he was still alive for he didnâ€™t wake up in the Underworld. He could hear voices but he couldnâ€™t understand the words. Moments later he could feel a breeze brushing against his face. Just then he got a huge whiff of something sweet at first he didnâ€™t know what it was. Then he remembered coming across something in the food market, where he planned to steal some food, a sign had said â€œStrawberriesâ€ the smell was similar to the little reddish fruits. He managed to wake slightly his vision was blurry though he was able to make out an outline of a huge building. He let out a groan for his neck and side hurt like the River Styx, yes he did fall into it one time but that was when he was a pup. Hades was cruel when he punished Silas when he lifted his leg towards Hadesâ€™ throne. He had to go and no one was around to take him to the garden. Silas stayed awake until they landed though he couldnâ€™t believe that he was actually flying. His mind was all spinning. But before he passed out again he smelt something tasty. Goat! â€œLamb chops sounds tasty,â€ He slurred, â€œOr, a tasty Satyr would be nice.â€ He said aloud. Then he fell back into unconsciousness.

I tried to bare the girl's way for as long as possible but it only worked for a solid two seconds. I followed her down the alleyway and after a twist I saw the most horrifying site. A hellhound maybe a bit bigger than Silas was standing over something. When the hellhound switched sides I could see it was Silas. The back of his neck looked shredded and bloody. The girl gave me a warning look, one that said, You scream, we die. She edged around the twist out of sight of the hellhound. "Hey you still with me?" she asked. I think I had just started hyperventilating, but I nodded nonetheless. "Okay so here's the plan; I am gonna get the attention of the hellhound and once that beast charges at me you go and drag that mortal away okay?" I was about to say Silas wasn't a mortal, but the longer she knew Silas was the better. The girl got up and left to stand in plain sight in the middle of the alleyway. "Hell monster!" she yelled. That got its attention away just in time, for the hellhound was about to land a killing bite. The hellhound growled then started to charge at the girl. The girl unsheathed her knife and went at the hellhound. I swear that knife was probably made out a gold for it had the look of it. Once the hellhound and her were battling it out I slipped around them keeping my eyes on Silas and ignoring the grunts of pain from the middle of the alleyway. Once I was at Silas I knelt down by him. "S-s-silas? Please don't be dead, please don't be dead." I took off the thing jacket I had on and tore it into sections. I used some of the torn fabric to clean off the blood and most of the shredded skin, then used another to keep pressure on his neck. Once I was sure the flow of blood was somewhat controlled I dragged him away from the fight. Silas's eyes were still closed and his breathing was ragged. Soon the girl caught up. "What happened to the hellhound?" I asked continuing to apply pressure to his neck. "He's back in the Underworld. Now what's your name?" the girl asked ignoring the fact that there was an unconscious boy who was bleeding to death right next to her. "Ashley." I answered shakily. "Okay Ashley, now here's what we are going to do, we are going to clean up this wound as best we can and get him to New York." New York? "Why? Why not just get him to a hospital?" She rolled her eyes and removed the piece of jacket. "Do you really want to explain this? At least at the camp we'll have more skilled healers." I looked at her like she was crazy. "Camp? What camp?" "I take it your mom's never told you?" "Told me what?" The girl rolled Silas on his side to inspect more of the damage. "I'll let Chiron explain. Just come on hurry." She grabbed Silas feet while I was left to grab his upper torso so we could get him out of here. "How are we going to get to New York? A bus?" The girl laughed and continued along the alley. When we came to a dead-end she stopped and laid Silas back on the ground. She walked up to the brick wall while I knelt down to check the bleeding. I could hear her as she whistled,and wondered why on earth she was whistling instead of helping. That question was answered when two things dropped out of the sky. When more like flew out of the sky. Two pegasi landed right in front of the girl. "What the heck?" I exclaimed surprised. These were, like everything else I've seen today, just myths. But now they were as real as daylight. "This is how we are getting to New York?" The girl nodded. "I guess I should tell you my name huh?" I nodded, this girl was insane, she took on a hellhound and called two pegasi out of the sky. "I'm Katie daughter of Ares." Ares? "Chiron will explain when you get to camp okay?" I nodded, if I had to endure one more freakish thing today I was likely to explode. Katie helped me get Silas on the back of a pure black pegasus then I got on behind him. It was going to be my job to make sure Silas didn't fall or lose much more blood. Katie hopped onto the other dappled grey one and was off into the darkening sky. As we flew into the air I looked back at D.C. Mom and Ricky would be worried, Charly wouldn't care and I don't think I'll be able to turn in that essay for History. I smiled at that thought.

Silas: Ashley gave Silas a look he didnâ€™t take it for granted he knew she was still upset with him from what happened earlier. She then took off down the sidewalk. Once he was she was far enough he morphed into his original hellhound form. He walked out of the alley; luckily, normal humans canâ€™t see him in this form. The other hellhound was near but stopped when he saw Silas. Silas didnâ€™t recognize him and his scent was different. He must a rogue he figured. There have been cases of hellhounds venturing into the human world and roam about like a wild animal. â€œHah, another hellhound on the prowl, do you know that this is my territory pup!â€ The hellhound sounded old though he looked quite healthy. Silas snorted. â€œYou better watch what you say for you donâ€™t know who your dealing with.â€ Silas narrowed his eyes. â€œYoungsters, always think they can take anyone on well bring it you little runt.â€ The old hellhound began to approach Silas with his head low teeth bearing. â€œGladly,â€ Silas lowered his head as well. He then lunged at the older hellhound carefully making sure he didnâ€™t step on the humans though he was happy to say there was only a hand full of people walking the streets. Silas tired to chomp down on the hellhoundâ€™s neck but he was fast and dodged him. The hellhound dashed off down an alley way Silas followed, which was a bad idea for when he came around a bend the old hellhound ambushed him. Silas felt a sharp pain in his side but he didnâ€™t let out a howl or yelp though he flinched from the pain. Silas pushed the hellhound off of him then leapt to his feet. Silas let out a low growl bared his teeth then lunged again. This time he was able to bite down on the hellhoundâ€™s leg. He let out a howl of pain then immediately he bit down the back of Silasâ€™ neck Silas eyes went wide from the pain he was too stunned to yelp. Then everything went dark the last thing he remembered was that he felt his body morphingâ€¦.into his human form.

Cahira: The girl looked at Cahira then told the wolf-dog to come. Cahira thought she heard her say â€˜Silasâ€™ though it wasnâ€™t clear. She and her wolf-dog ran off looked as though the girl was late for something. Cahira watched them disappear down the sidewalk before she turned around. As she did she thought she saw a glimpse of a huge shadow like someone had walked under one of the street limps. When she glanced over her shoulder to see who it was she saw no one. She raised an eyebrow in suspicion and decided to head home for she could stop by the store tomorrow. A few minutes later she reached the apparent complex. She walked in and went a few flights up and then unlocked her apartment door. Cahira than tossed her stuff on the couch closed the door and locked it. She made her way to her room got changed then hoped into bed for a good nights rest.

Silas lead me to an alleyway were he morphed back into his human guise. I almost forgot he was kind of human. He still had the collar hanging limply around his neck but he quickly unhooked it and gave it to me. â€œI suggest that you run. I might kill you again if you get in my way.â€ He said coldly. I rolled my eyes then started off back into the street at a run, he didn't need to tell me to get lost twice. I was dead scared as I caught a glimpse of him morphing into his giant hellhound form.I ran into the crowds of people that were going home after a long day's work and continued running. The hellhound stopped following me to pick up the scent of the other hellhound so I was free to run anywhere. Unfortunately fate had other ideas. Somebody amongst the crowd grabbed my wrist and pulled me out. I couldn't see who was leading me out but all I knew was that their grip was strong. Whoever grabbed me pulled me into a space between two stores. I looked back but I couldn't see Silas nor the other hellhound. But I could see the person that pulled me out of the crowd. She had fiery red hair and looked a bit stocky. "Where's the hellhounds?" she said sternly. "W-w-what d'you mean?" she rolled her eyes. "I know you can see them, now them me where they are?" she snapped. I pointed back down at the alleyway a little more than half a mile away. She took off. "Wait!" she stopped, "Who the hell are you?" She smiled but started off again. Then I realized if I've sent someone after two hellhound and she might be planning to kill them? I started after her quickly. I caught up just in time, she was still looking for them. "Wait, you can't one of them is my-" I was about to say friend but I couldn't really call him a friend exactly. "Oh boy. Listen, hellhounds, they can't be trusted. They is no such thing as a nice hellhound they all need to be destroyed." I was about to protest but she cut me off. "It's them are us. Get the picture?" She ran off again but I quickly cornered her pursuit. I was't going to let them kill Silas, never mind that he killed me.

I hid in a bush. I looked at a sign. Olympus Drive. What a coincadince. I trotted on the side walk. I was in no hurry. I was in my German Shepherd form. I was comfortable. A puff ball of a dog barked at me, it was more of a pitiful yip. I rolled my eyes. I decided I needed a place to hide. I flattened some grass and layed down. I saw a teenager walking her wolf. Wait, wolf? I din't know humans had pet wolves. I thoght they feared them. I sat in the street light. I somehow knew that wolf. I'm going insane, arn't I? I thoght to myself. But still, I knew that wolf.

Silas: Ashley didnâ€™t reply she just kept on walking. After a few blocks Silas started to sense that they were being followed. He sniffed the air, when he recognized the scent his fur stood on end along his back. The scent belonged to a hellhound. Ashley seemed to have realized that they were being followed as well. Donâ€™t look behind you. Silas thought to himself, but she did anyways. The way her face looked he assumed that the hellhound was near. Ashley quicken her pace which was also not a good idea. When they came close to an alleyway Silas darted towards pulling her into the alley. Making sure no one was around he morphed into his human appearance. He then unbuckled the collar and handed it to Ashley. â€œI suggest that you run. I might kill you again if you get in my way.â€ He said coldly.

"Who was that girl?" Silas began to ask. "For she had a similar scent as you do." I had no clue what he meant by that but didn't think to much of it. I walked a bit fast trying not to get noticed but soon I was running but for a completely different reason. Something was chasing us. And that something looked a whole lot like Silas when he completely morphed.It was a giant black wolfish creature although one difference was the glowing eyes.It was pushing past people who didn't even seem to notice it, it was also making a beeline straight for us.
