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.

[attr="class","THREAD1CONTENT"] Rubbing water out of his eyes he shook his head like a dog, spraying even more water everywhere around him. He let out a sigh of relief, considering he was still alive. That was an achievement to celebrate. He could have drowned but he didn’t. His ability, or lack thereof, had catapulted him into a sticky situation and out of it. For a moment he completely forgot about the other person, barely remembering what happened to them underwater. Oops.
Immediately Skylar slapped his hands together and rubbed his palms against each other in an apologetic manner. “Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry,” he said repeatedly and out of habit. The number of times he had to apologize because of situations like this, perhaps not as wet as this one which was a first, was way too high. It could have been considered a miracle that none of the children of Mars or Bellona had killed him, although, there were a couple of attempts he could not deny had happened in the past… the very recent past.
“Well, technically since you’re a demigod it should be what the hades or maybe what the pluto since you’re here at Camp Jupiter. But it doesn’t sound as good as the greek one I suppose,” the brunet said, running a hand through his wet hair. He took in the sight of the pink-haired girl. Oh boy, she looked mad, he thought, crawling closer to the wall. His back was pressed against the tiles and he held out his hands in a gesture that would hopefully portray his defenselessness in case she was thinking about murdering right now, right there.
“Umm sorry. I really didn’t mean to do that on purpose. I sometimes run… and forget to brake.” He chuckled nervously, wiping water out of his face. Skylar tilted his head to the side and shook it in an attempt to get water out of his ear. Her voice was slightly muffled but he could still hear her accusation just fine.
Scrambling into a standing position he pushed himself away from the wall, his wet clothes slightly sticking to the tiles and freeing themself as he moved towards the edge of the pool. “Besides, it’s not so smart of you to out yourself as a Greek right away.” Skylar pressed his lips together, narrowing his eyes at her as he looked down and held out a hand to help her out of the water. “Uh- you… you got something on your face-” he started and paused, blinking at her. “Are you bleeding pink?”
[attr="class","THREAD1CONTENT"] Skylar was taking a stroll around the Principia, watching the guards and trying to figure out their daily routine for the day. They had already caught up with him and decided to switch up things every single day. He wasn't sure if they were fine with it or if it annoyed them even more. Either way, he was amused by it.
The son of Mercury was just about to take his chance and sprint towards a column near the entrance door when he subconsciously shifted gears and basically flew towards somewhere else. Oops. He did it again.
Skylar just couldn't get used to the speed traveling... especially since he just couldn't get a hold of it. After all these freaking years, he still wasn't able to get any control over it. It's like his dad knew he was going to cause trouble and cursed him. Maybe he was afraid his son would end up becoming a bank robber like Flash. Well, Skylar definitely wouldn't mind.
SPLASH.
His feet had dragged him to the bathhouse and the pool within a second. He didn't even want to know how he made it past the walls or if he had opened the door. He couldn't even stop himself in time. His feet came to halt the moment he was already falling towards the water - what he didn't know was that he accidentally dragged someone down with him.
Skylar was sure he lost consciousness for a moment if only a brief moment. He opened his eyes, confused about why he was somewhere underwater until he remembered speed traveling and hitting the water’s surface. That’s where his memories ended but apparently nothing much happened in between those seconds.
He was losing air to breathe, his cheeks already puffed up to full capacity. He wasn’t the most innocent person out there. Anyway, he tried pointing upwards to tell them to go up and tried mouthing a SORRY but as he did so his mouth filled with water and his reflexes kicked in, his left leg involuntarily swung forward and may or may not have hit the person.
The next second he found himself on the other side of the room - by the gods... again. Today was not a good day and he still had more than half of it left to suffer through. Might as well speed travel to the Underworld.
It was until the age of 13 when a prank went wrong. Skylar was on a field trip with his schoolmates. His parents had sent him to a boarding school with the rich kids. They owned a lot of nice things his grabby hands just couldn’t resist stealing - or borrowing. Anyway, the class went to Paris for their trip. At night the whole class would sneak out of their hotel but everyone was leaving for different things. While most of them were out and about to get some fine french wine and champagne he and his two best friends sneaked out to visit the Eiffel Tower again. They had already seen it shortly after they arrived but it was too crowded. So they decided to try at night unsure if they would get past security. Lucky for them there seemed to be only one security guard and a dog.[break][break]
Little did he know it wasn’t just a dog. The trip tried sneaking past the guard who was sleeping in his booth and they managed to get to the entrance but as soon as his friend touched the metal construction of the tower sparks started flying and it lit up in its complete glory. Welp. The security guard woke up in an instant and his dog started barking. Skylar couldn’t believe his eyes when the dog seemingly shifted and transformed into a much, much, much bigger beast. He and his friends ran for their lives but Skylar suddenly found himself on the very top of the Eiffel Tower… he honestly didn’t know why or how he ended up there but the bigger question for him at that point was how to get back down.[break][break]
There wasn’t much space for him to move on the tip of the building and as he tried to move as slow as he can he attempted to climb down but as the sudden roar of the creature blasted through the night he lost his grip and plummeted down - well, that’s one way. He had shut his eyes and was awaiting his certain death but the next second he found himself standing on top of the security guard’s booth. He attempted to take a step forward but ended up sitting on the monster’s back. What the Hades was going on with him? After a rodeo session on the manticore, he was thrown off and crashed into his friends. He subconsciously grabbed them in hopes this weird teleporting thing he was doing would get them away from the trouble - and it did. They found themselves on the river banks near their hotel.[break][break]
The next morning the three of them gathered to discuss the events of the night before and figured it must have been some kind of hallucination. The next two days of their trip were normal and nothing happened so it must have been something in the food or their drinks they thought. The trip ended without any further complications and they arrived safely at home.[break][break]
After three days at home, his best friends disappeared.[break][break]
Two months passed before he accidentally found himself speed traveling to the Wolf House.[break][break]
He really sucked at everything Lupa was trying to teach him. He was stuck for almost a year before he was deemed worthy enough of being sent to Camp Jupiter. Skylar didn’t have any control over his speed traveling ability and always found himself transported to random places by accident. A trip to the bathroom? You mean the one in LA right? Plopping down on his bed? Ah, you mean the grass field somewhere in Oregon right? Finding his way to camp was easier said than done. But he became very good at running - away from monsters.[break][break]
Once he finally somehow ended up at camp he found his friends again - who apparently don’t suck as much as he does - and he was placed into the 5th Cohort after finishing his Probatio time.[break]
SPEED TRAVEL - Skylar inherited the ability to speed travel from his dad, however, he has absolutely no control over it just can't get a hold of it properly. This ability usually kicks in during the most random times and it's like his feet drag him somewhere he doesn't want to go. He can't stop it most of the time. It's like being Flash but on drugs. Because it's unexpected most of the time he ends up feeling nauseous and dizzy, throwing up from time to time.[break][break]
Other than that he is a very skilled thief and nothing is safe from his fingers - especially not important praetor documents. Do you need to get rid of your name on the punishment list? It's only 5 denarii. He's also very good at running away. Weapons aren't really his thing but he sometimes can be found playing around with a gladius.[break]
Ave, demigod! Over the next month, all new threads created may be attacked by the Fates at any time, unless specified in the subheader. All random events will be based on prompts from the randomizer.
