The Smith and the Shadowwaker Cont.

I was lying on the beach with my katana's beside me. I was wearing an orange pair of swim trunks with a black flame pattern at the bottom. My vest was open and my scarf around my neck. I had my fingers interlocked behind my head. Through my eyelids I saw a shadow over me. "Could you move, you're blocking the sun." I grumble.

"Funny, but then again, most of Hades kids don't like the son. I reply looking at her with an eye open. I resumed my peaceful nap, snoring lightly. Gods was I tired. I usually go for 2-3 weeks with out sleep, running off of Coffee and the energy drinks I get some of the Hermes campers to buy for me, I in turn pay them back with Fixed/new weapons.

I continued sleeping even as I feel a weight on my chest, so I assume Luzia got tired and decided to use my chest as a pillow. Funny thing is when you're asleep, you don't realize much, but since i didn't feel hair, but sand, I decided to play a joke on Luzia. I lazily moved my left hand out from behind my head, grabbing a handful of sand and then dumped it down her cover. I placed my left hand behind my head, still sleeping.

As Luzia's cover hit's my face I grin. "That got you from brooding." I say, my voice muffled by the cover. I pick it off my face, and drop it on her towel. I prop myself up, and look at her, my jaw drops a bit, she had a beautiful figure, that i found incredibly attractive. "Are you mad because I dumped sand down your back?" I ask.

I grinned. "Well that's good. Now, let's swim!" I shouted, stripping my Vest and muffler off. I sprinted forward and leaped into the sea. I sighed in joy as the sea water steams against my hot skin. "Come on, the waters fine." I said facing the shore touching the bottom.

I groaned from where I was, waist deep in the water. I fell back into the water and sighed. "We are here to relax. So you must come farther, besides, i'm certain that Hades and kelp face aren't that angry at each other, I think it's more Hades and Zeus." I say floating in the water.

I looked a little bit confused, but shrugged. "Our problems, and theirs' are on a differant scale, I still stand by what I said about Thunder Beard and yor dad, Lu." I say, happily

*OOC: Natsu makes nicknames for people at random

*IC: I know her name, but i like the sound of Lu, after all, I like making nicknames for people. It's fun. "I want to meet more campers like me, ones with pyrokinesis, but that's a rare gift from Hephaestus anyways."

"Once every Several Hundred years, Hephaestus will gift one of his kids with the ability to control fire, but i cant even come close, all i can do is increase my body tempature and usit to shape metal and breack handcuffs." I say, after hearing her mess the sentence up. "listen Lu, I don't speak to many people, so I'm disconectted from mostly everybody. Fact is, you're the first person I've spoken to since coming to this camp."

"A broken family, a shattered home and a devastated child... that is why i don’t talk to barely anyone at the camp. I have no reason to; I have only had brief conversations with the other campers. You are the first person to have a long-standing conversation with me, Lu, and what I don't get, is how you are not put off by it. That scares and confuses me, yet it excites me at the same time. My dreams are shattered, my family in ruins, and my friends stabbed me in the back, but i hope that i don't turn on the camp, it, well, it would cause a confliction within my soul, tearing it in half till i make the right choice.” i say, anger coursing through my veins. The water starts bubbling due to my anger, and my sadness. I take a series of deep breaths and calm down. ”Sorry. I should leave.” i get into a standing postion and start walking out of the water.

"I... I do... I don't like talking about it, even thinking about it make me sick." i reply. I feel the cool seawater splash my body, and get a tad bit angry. As much as water can cool me down, my anger and pain have been bottled down too long. ”Lu, don’t splash me with water, ever again.” i said my voice low and my face shadowed by my hair.

”Lu, I’m sorry, but if there’s one thing i know too well, it bottling emotions. The longer the emotions are bottled the worse the mental pain is when they come out.” I say, grabbing her wrist. ”Lu, what i said, it was in anger, because I’ve never spoken to anyone about my past, and i don’t know who to talk to it about.”

”You’re right, i don’t feel the same way, but everybody has their demons. Me, i have the temperament of a dragon, and yet I’m still human, so why do i feel angry right now, it’s because my demons, are bigger than i care to admit, I’m nothing more than a coward. I’m running from my demons, instead of fighting them.” I say depressed. I turn around and walk until I’m up to neck in the water. ”Maybe you’d be happier if i died. After all, i am a coward, and dying is the coward’s way out of life.”
