Yes. You read that right. Greece has fallen...or at least the camp that has catered to Greek demigods for over three millennia has fallen. Camp Half-Blood had a traitor in their midst. A traitor with powerful allies who quickly burned the camp to the ground. Some were lost, some killed, and the rest who remained began the long trek across the country to the only place where they might be safe: Camp Jupiter.
Chiron banded what campers they had left, told them of the other camp and sent word to Camp Jupiter pleading for shelter. Chaos now threatens the camp daily with the arrival of new Greek campers to this foreign camp. This camp with strange customs and rules. While on the Roman end the Praetors are forced to hold up a balancing act of providing sanctuary while also trying to find the traitor before their home suffers the same fate as Camp Half-Blood.
New alliances are forged, new enemies are made, and these two worlds have to find some way to work together for the future of them all. Which side are you on? Which position will you take? It's time to jump in the fray because Greece has fallen.

Life in the Roman camp was much different from the life that many Greeks lived. They were tougher, meaner, and maybe a little better when it came to battles. She wasn't complaining, though; maybe their lifestyle was something many of the Greeks needed. Perhaps that fracker would learn how to keep his teammates alive while living among the Romans. She laughed at the thought; she doubted he would learn anything. He'd just get the next bunch of Greeks killed, or maybe, the next quest he receives will include Roman demigods. She'd love to see them abandon him to die instead of fighting to keep him alive.
Was she a little angry? Maybe. Did she wish for the death of a fellow demigod because of it? Yes, yes, she was. And she didn't care one bit. They may be family from some weird god-point of view, but she hated his guts. It was his fault that Alessandra had died, and she wasn't going to let him forget it. Because if she had to have nightmares of her sister dying over and over again while he laughed or stood shell-shocked, she was going to kill something. Maybe a little electric zap to his gluteus maximus would state her thirst for his blood?
She grumbled to herself, seated in the mess hall, pushing her dinner around the plate. There were a few empty spots around her; most of the campers knew to avoid her when she was in one of these moods. Then again, when wasn't she in a mood? The table shook a little as someone sat their food down and seated themselves near her. She glanced up, seeing a familiar face, and grimaced, "What the Hades do you want?"
On TV they always made a big deal out of selecting which clique you sit with in the cafeteria. Sienna had always been the type to jump from group to group, but this instinct had been amplified her arrival at Camp Jupiter. If you were a Greek, even if you had never spoken before, there was a strong chance that Sienna would sit next to you and strike up a conversation. The transition to Camp Jupiter had been a difficult one, and new refugees from Camp Halfblood were arriving every day. Sienna wanted to do her part to be welcoming and make sure her fellow Greeks were okay.
Usually if she saw someone sitting alone she would just plop down next to them and strike up a conversation. The person she saw sitting alone gave her a moments pause. There had been a time when Sienna couldn’t get enough of spending time with Alessia; but was a long time ago, and Alessia had been a very different person back then. Sienna understood immediately why no one was currently sitting next to Alessia, she did not appear to be in a good mood.
In that moment Sienna realized that she had two conflicting impulses. 1. Though she no longer had any romantic feelings towards Alessia, she did still care about her well-being. Checking in and seeing how she was doing was the right thing to do. 2. Sitting down with Alessia was undoubtedly going to annoy her. Few things in life gave Sienna as much enjoyment as pissing someone off by being overly sweet and friendly.
Sienna too keep seat right next to Alessia, and was treated to a grumpy response. ”I saw you eating alone, thought you might need some company.” Sienna settled herself and stabbed a piece of tofu with her fork. ”So, how has Camp Jupiter been treating you so far?”
It would be a small miracle if Sienna made it through the meal without getting electrocuted. Still this was going to be fun, and Alessia probably could use someone to talk to.
The last time she had seen Sienna Watson up close, they had been breaking up. Alessia knew the reason that the other woman had broken things off, but at the time, she had nothing to say to her. Their relationship hadn't been the worse thing that happened in her life, but the fact that the woman had broken her heart during a tough time made her hate her more. But she didn't blame her. Alessia would have done the same thing if Sienna had become a cold-hearted Hellhoundess before her eyes. She didn't hate Sienna like she hated him, but she did find annoyance in her presence. It brought up the past during her time of peace, and she didn't always want to set things on fire. Sometimes she wanted a level head, doesn't everyone?
She growled out her question, narrowing her eyes as her appetite disappeared. She started pushing the food around, staring at the woman that stood before her. There were no romantic feelings between the two of them, at least not on Alessia's side. 'I saw you eating alone, thought you might need some company. So, how has Camp Jupiter been treating you so far?' A bitter laugh broke free from the reddish-brown hair as she threw her head back.
She held in the snort, bringing her attention back to the woman. "You didn't think that I was alone because I want to be?" she questioned, raising an eyebrow. She rolled her eyes, shrugging her shoulders at the second question that broke free from the woman's lips. Should Alessia humor her? She thought against it but found herself answering. "It's been treating me splendidly," she said, her tone bitter, and she didn't even ask how it was treating Sienna.
”I mean, you are kind of putting out those I’ll murder anyone who sits next to me vibes.” Sienna admitted. ”But, I kinda feel like no one from Camp Halfblood should be alone right now.”
Wanting to be alone and needing to be alone we’re two separate things. Humans were social creatures, everyone needed company once in a while. The transition from Camp Halfblood to Camp Jupiter hadn’t been easy for anyone. Loosing a sense of home and safety in such a brutal manner was traumatic. Alessia had already suffered through a great trauma before the fall of Camp Halfblood. In Sienna’s opinion, Alessia hadn’t handled the trauma of loosing a sister very well.
Sitting near her now it was hard to see any glimpses of the girl she used to love. Alessia had been changed so completely by her grief and anger it was like she was a whole new person now. Admittedly Sienna had avoided being too close to her, but she still couldn’t remember the last time she saw a real smile from Alessia.
Whatever issues Alessia had were well beyond Siennas ability to help, that’s why she had left in the first place. Alessia put out some seriously negative energy, and Sienna didn’t like to be around people like that. Alessia had basically growled a sarcastic answer about Camp Jupiter being splendid.
Sienna raised an eyebrow ”Yeah, you seem like you are having a great time so far.” okay this was not the time for sarcasm she was here to play nice and gently annoy her ex not antagonize her. ”You were always really good at the fighting stuff. The Romans seem like they would appreciate having someone with your strengths around.”
It was a gamble. She wasn’t sure if the Romans were really being welcoming any of the Greeks. Still if they were to welcome anyone into their military ranks it would probably be someone like Alessia. The daughter of Zeus had strong and dangerous powers, even if she couldn’t zap people with lightning she was a skilled fighter. Maybe the Romans were being a little kinder to the people who would be an asset in a fight.
Sienna was a definitely a lover not a fighter. She knew her pacifist ways would not be accepted by the Romans, and she didn’t want to change her values just for the sake of fitting in. Still it would be good to know if the Romans were willing to accept the Greeks that were natural fighters.

'I mean, you are kind of putting out those I'll murder anyone who sits next to me vibes.' Sienna's admission almost made the young brunette laugh, but she kept it in. Alessia was sure that was the vibe that she was giving off; it had been since her sister died. The news had come to her not long after the quest went south, and it was all Nikolai's fault. While most people had forgotten about the fallen campers from that quest because they were forced to abandon their camp, Alessia couldn't. There were multiple ways for her to forget, let it go, and she didn't see any of them happening anytime soon.
But, I kinda feel like no one from Camp Halfblood should be alone right now.' Alessia shrugged her shoulders, not agreeing nor disagreeing. Unlike the rest of those that came over from their previous camp, she did not feel the need to be with others. She rather keep to herself; not that many enjoyed her company anymore anyway. Not even her fellow siblings liked to be around her since Alessandra died. It was one of the reasons that she and Sienna had broken up. And yet, here was her ex-girlfriend, trying to be there for her. It was one of the things that the old Alessia would have enjoyed; it was one thing that drew her closer to Sienna. It was one of the personality traits that had Alessia developing feelings for the crazy-haired daughter of Iris. She shook her head out of her past, out of the thoughts that didn't matter.
"I'm not like the others, though; I prefer to be alone. You know that Sienna," she breathed out, her words holding a little more bite than she intended. Whatever little she still felt for Sienna was buried beneath the surface, never to return. Maybe her demeanor towards the woman she once cared for was to protect her; Alessia knew that she couldn't handle losing another person that she loved deeply. Was her relationship with Sienna even love? Had they gotten to that point? Alessia had never said that three-letter word to Sienna, but had she felt it? She'd never know now.
The female did not take any of Alessia's hints to be alone. Instead, she continued as if the girl hadn't said anything to turn her away. She let out a bitter laugh, "I doubt they'd appreciate my strengths. They don't like any of us; they don't trust us. I don't blame them," she said, taking a bite of her food. Not when we have a murderer within our group, she thought to herself. A few of the Romans had been somewhat interested in her talents as a fighter, but there was only a handful. They'd never really be accepted into the fold, no matter how much they tried. The Greeks weren't fighters, not like the Romans.
Humans were social creatures, of course demigods were only half human. Yet judging by the number of demigods running around camp, the Gods were pretty social too. Everyone needed someone they could spend time with. Sienna didn’t quite buy the whole lone wolf act. Sure even a social butterfly like Sienna needed occasional alone time, but she couldn’t quite believe that anyone truly wanted to be alone in life.
No, Sienna was pretty sure Alessia didn’t really want to be alone. Sure Alessia had become mean and difficult to deal with, honestly Sienna wasn’t sure that part of her was going to change. Alessia had lost the one person on this earth that she loved the most. It was clear that Alesia’s anger was very real. But, on some level Sienna was pretty sure that Alessia kept people from getting close to her because she was afraid of loosing them.
Of course she couldn’t tell that to Alessia. It was fun to push her buttons and piss her off a little bit, but Sienna wasn’t ready to face death by electrocution. No, a criticism that deep and serious, wasn’t meant to be told to you by an ex.
Alessia was talking about the Romans not appreciating her. ”No, don’t be ridiculous. They are all about being angry and stabbing things, you would fit right in with them. I’m surprised they haven’t already recruited you into one of their fighting club thingies.” Sienna was only half joking.
Since coming to Camp Jupiter Sienna had to admit she felt unwelcome here. Sienna had assumed it was because she didn’t exactly fit into their military society, but maybe it went beyond that. It was a safe assumption that Alessia hadn’t been exactly friendly towards the folks from Camp Jupiter, but still it seemed odd that a group so obsessed with fighting wouldn’t welcome such a strong demigod.
”I don’t get the mistrust thing. I mean aren’t we technically brothers and sisters. I mean I’m still not sure how the whole two aspects of one God thing works out. But there are children of ...” she paused for a moment searching for the Roman name. “Jupiter. Right? We are still all part of the weird Olympian family tree. Shouldn’t they want to help us out?”
If the situation had been reversed Sienna would have welcomed the people from Camp Jupiter with open arms. What sort of evil plan did the Romans think the Greeks were plotting anyway?
”I mean, we’re just here trying to survive. What purpose could we possibly have in coming here beyond finding a safe place to stay?
