I was so upset about Antonio's death.I sat under Thalia's pine and cried.Why did he have to die?It wasn't fair.Of course,we were all probably thinking that right now.

I walk up and sit aways on the hill. i still had tears in my eyes from crying but I looked at the ocean.

"Hello Halo." I said from a distance.I wished Antonio was alive.Life would be happier that way.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Sat Jan 01, 2011 10:10 pm

I wave but look back at the ocean. I was hugging my knees to my chest. "Hi"

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Sat Jan 01, 2011 10:12 pm

I smiled weakly.I felt this odd sensation.It was weird.Like a chill.I ignored it.

I let go of another tear. I got along with almost everyone. But me and Antonio fought alot and stayed cool every once in a while.

I cry myself.I hated life sometimes,but I didn't want to.It just happened.Why did it have to be Antonio?

I walked up Half Blood Hill my eyes bloodshot. I always had a tendency to hide my emotions, and I hid them well, but this time it was hard. I told Antonio I would miss him if he ever died, but I don't think he ever believed me. Now he was gone. I had no idea what to do. I wiped a tear from my eye and sat under Thalia's pine tree. "Hey Halo, hey Tobias," I said. I could tell they were still grieving from Antonio's death, and as their friend I wanted to comfort them. "Still upset?" I asked waiting for the obvious answer.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Sun Jan 02, 2011 8:14 pm

I nod."I see you are too.Kai's been summoning Antonio's ghost lately." I said.He kept disappearing.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Sun Jan 02, 2011 8:49 pm

I look at them. then looked back at the ocean. Another tear droped from my eye.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Sun Jan 02, 2011 8:59 pm

I nodded. "Atleast we'll have the chance to speak with Antonio," I said. "With Kai being a son of Hades, we might be able to talk to him whenever we want." I thought about the chance of being able to speak with Antonio again. Sure, it might be weird speaking to a ghost, or something like that, but atleast we'd get to tell him how we feel.

I over heard them talking. It wasn't like i was trying . But i was right there. Then i thought: Talk to Antonio. I would like that.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Sun Jan 02, 2011 9:50 pm

I thought about being able to talk to Antonio. It would be great. I'd be able to tell him how much I missed him. I mean, he was my half-brother, and I cared about my siblings. Even if I don't know them that well, I still care. "We should find Kai, and ask him to speak to Antonio's ghost," I said. I leaned back on Thalia's pine and crossed my arms behind my head. "Wouldn't it be great to talk to him again?" I murmured.

I got up and walked over. "Do you think i can...you know come?" I still had tears but i looked hopeful. the hope of being able to see Antonio.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Mon Jan 03, 2011 8:45 pm

"Of course, Halo," I said. I could feel her pain, and I was suffering through it too. We had to talk to Antonio.

"How about me?"

"What the-" Was that Vic? Yes, it is! Beside her stood another girl, about the age of sixteen. I think I remember seeing her around camp... Brown hair, striking green eyes that really do stand out. Daughter of Demeter, I think. Yes, Alex Moore. Now I recall.

"Mind if we come?" I asked. I haven't seen these guys in so long. Time for a family reunion!

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Mon Jan 03, 2011 8:48 pm

I smile a little, "Sure!" I looked back at the ocean. "hey bro can we go?" I hoped to get closer to my own brother. I seen him so little.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Mon Jan 03, 2011 8:56 pm

I smiled. Now all of us were together again. I remembered the day Vic and I came to camp, and Noah and Halo were there to support us. That was a while ago though, and now all of us have finally crossed paths again. "You guys are aware of me and Kai," I began, "Well, as an us now. I could try and talk him into letting us speak with Antonio."

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Mon Jan 03, 2011 9:00 pm

"Trust me i know about you and Kai. Right now Noah needs me more than anything..." I looked at my half brother. I try to act happy but it was hard i still had tears in my eyes

"So where is this Kai kid?" I asked, slightly confused. I didn't know anyone from this group except for Victoria. We met at the arena just a few days ago, and quickly became friends. We've been by eachothers side ever since.

"I"m not really sure," I replied. Although, I did know he was somewhere contacting Antonio. I just didn't know where, but I have a feeling he's talking to him as we speak. I had to find Kai, for all of us.

"Wait- What? You and this Kai kid? Wow, Melina, you already have a boyfriend? I'm two years older than you, and you're not even in high school yet!" I interupted, slightly jealous, but impressed.

Typical. While we're talking about something completly different, she rambles on about something completly off topic. I smiled, not because me having a boyfriend ticked her off, but because it was nice to have her back again, and lighten things up.

A little light twinkles in my eyes. I found this funny. "Lets find Kai."

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Tue Jan 04, 2011 8:48 pm

"I know where he is." I say suddenly.The chill I'd been feeling,must've been unnatural.As unnatural as summoning the dead."Check out Zephryos.I can get Noah and Ray,too,if you guys would like."

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Tue Jan 04, 2011 8:51 pm

"Please get them. I think Noah would want to see his brother again. I want to see my own brother too." I looked down I knew everyone too well.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Tue Jan 04, 2011 8:57 pm

"Okay." I made a bird call.Kai's hawk appeared.I pulled a piece of paper from my backpack,and scribbled two messages.I gave it to Kai's hawk and it flew away."They will meet us there."

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Tue Jan 04, 2011 8:58 pm

I nod and start to run. i couldn't wait. Noah would be so happy.

Subject: Re: Trees are a great place to cry. Tue Jan 04, 2011 9:01 pm

I looked at the other girls."You comin?" Then I sprinted away after Halo.I hoped Noah and Ray got the message.
