Celina Dastal

Celina sat looking over the water, feeling calm and slightly tired, curfew at this camp was awful. She was tired all day and awake and pacing all night. She skipped a rock gently and watched the water move with tired interest.

The girl hummed a song she didn't know the name of underneath her breath. She was clad as usual in her dark blue jeans and black hoodie. Her converse glowed with the glow in the dark paint she got at the Hermes cabin. As she walked she saw the full moon hit the lake just right and she wished that she was an artist right then and there. She saw a girl sitting down and she thought it was the perfect picture. "Hello." She whispered not wanting to disturb the peaceful scene.

Celina glanced over her shoulder as she heard a soft gentle whisper to see a girl, she was dressed in dark clothes and glowing shoes. Celina smiled gently and stood, wandering over to the girl with a fluid motion that almost made her appear to glide towards the girl like a shadow. She brushed her black hair out of her face and smiled amiably. Her own voice was soft, though she was not whispering it was gentle and smooth.

"Hello, The night truly is beautiful isn't it? The lake looks its best to me when it is drenched in darkness, reflecting anything the moon touches."

As she spoke her eyes wandered back to the water, and she felt at home, here covered in the night. Hidden from the harsh rays of the sun, or the chaos of the day.

The girl is star struck for a moment as she watches the girl stand up. She moves like water and has a child like beauty around her. However she forces it down and brings forth a soft smile to her face and answers the question. The other girl speaks like poetry and "One of most beautiful I've ever seen." She watches as the girl turns to look at the lake and a question comes to her. "Do you ever just want to stay in moments like these forever?"

Celina nodded in response to the question. A moment like this, beautiful, dark, quiet... forever. She smiled and looked down for a moment with a quiet laugh. Unfortunately night did not last forever. This beauty was reserved only for the time when most creatures slept, this beauty was reserved for hunters, and other nocturnal creatures. She looked back at her new companion and said in the same gentle tone.

"I have always thought the world would be more peaceful if moments like this would never end, if the night was all there was. For most of the creatures that cause havoc sleep in these moments.... Oh! I never introduced myself did i? My name is Celina. Im a daughter of Nyx. And you are?"

The girl has this strange urge to bow to the young doll face child who was technically her aunt. She resists the urge to roll her eyes at Greek mythology and instead answers the girl's question. "I'm Zaria, child of Morpheus." Even though it was a beautiful night it was freezing cold. "What are you doing out here all by your self? Are you cold?"

Celina thought about the cold air breezing against the camp half blood t-shirt, and the light goosebumps that rose on her arms. The cold, at least at night, never seemed to bother her, it was a tingly sensation but was also incredibly pleasant. It was exhilarating and energizing, making her feel strong and awake. She wondered how she could explain it to Zaria, the way that the night and the cold air made her feel truly alive. She opted for a shrug and a simple response, although her usually tired eyes were alert and focused on her new friends face.

"The cold makes me feel more awake, at least the nighttime cold. I only really feel alive at night, for me, this is the place i feel most welcome, most safe and strongest. I cannot sleep for the life of me at night. Why are you down here if you think it is so chilly?"

The girl smiles at the younger girl. "Sometimes you have to do whatever it takes to stay awake." She looks around her hair blowing from the harsh wind. "Even if it means freezing to death out here." Staying awake was her goal and she would accomplish that goal. Even if it meant skinney dipping naked in the lake. She shivers at the thought.

Celina titled her head lightly, smiling with confusion. If Zaria's father was Morpheus, shouldn't she have control over sleep rather than being controlled by it? It seemed only natural. In the same way that she was able to thrive in the night. She gestured for the girl to follow her and walked back to where she had been sitting earlier and sank back onto the log with a sigh. She looked over her shoulder and said in a understanding voice.

"For me, I don't let my nature control me. Although i am most active at night, i can still function during the day. I have noticed your siblings have a hard time staying awake, and to be honest... that confuses me. If your father is the god of sleep, shouldn't you have control over it rather than it over you?"

The girl walks over to sit down before answering the question. Morpheus was the god of dreams sometimes she wished she was child of her grandfather heck she really wanted to be child of Nyx her grandmother. "Morpheus doesn't control sleep he does . . . dreams. It's not sleep I'm running from it's dreams." She looks out onto the lake. "Sometimes life feels like a dream and I hate that feeling." She froze why was she telling that to this girl.

Celina noticed as the girl tensed after her words and wondered if the girl had thought she had said too much. She smiled lightly and decided that she could give some information of her own away, to show her good will towards this girl. She did not have many friends here at camp, since she barley interacted at all during the day. She looked over the lake and spoke in a soft whisper, confiding a small truth of her own.

"I am afraid of light. Mildly, i can handle it. But it unnerves me in much the same way night makes most others uncomfortable. It is noisy and bright, and i'm always exhausted and paranoid. So i guess to some level i can understand. I always thought Morpheus was the god of sleep... Im glad you corrected me."

Celina jumped lightly as her black cat leaped up from a shadow in the stump she was sitting on, she had forgotten the cat was there. Though it was always with her. It was like her own personal shadow. She petted it and kissed its forehead before turning to face her new friend with a kind smile.

The girl jumped back slightly when she sees the cat. She swolllows hard. She understood why Celina reveled that about herself and so she leans back against the air on the log. She nearly falls off and laughs at her stupidity. Being afraid of light was one thing. Celina's mom was night, darkness, and the opposite of day. Her father was dreams, she shouldn't be afraid of it but she was. Taking a deep breath she began to speak. "My nightmares started about a year ago when I brought my brother to camp, he doesn't have my powers to drift so I was glad he couldn't see them but they've gotten worse and I'm trying to avoid them." She looks at the girl. "I guess in the same way you avoid light."
