| I was running, I had to run, I Always ran, not something I always told people, just something I did. I ran. Running down the soft, cool morning sand, it felt oddly cold under my feet. Kicking up and splashes behind me. My ink black hair was tucked in a cap again, were short shorts, a tee shirt, and a sleeveless hoodie, made me look like a serotype jogger. I kept my pace steady, then slow to a stop in a random spot. Taking a few deep breaths. My muscles ached, my lungs sore, and My face beaded with sweat. My face was serious, yet somehow still happy. My green eyes closed, as I took a drink from a warm canister filled with something very dangerous to some ADHD demigods here, doubled sugared, chocolate cameral frappe. Warm and sticky it ran down my thought, leaving steam in the crisp autumn air. You would think I had something to do, other then waste hours running, I didn't need to be in shape, I wasn't a running, I wasn't like I had nothing. But it was just me, I ran many mornings, maybe I would get halfway down the beach one morning I then pass out, or fall sleep, as the night's energy ran out of me. Then one day, I would still be running until 7, when I started at 3 or 4 in the morning. But you would think I had Somthing. But no I ran, I never ran from something, because I ran from it at night. When the shadows hide me, how they create illusions, it hides me as I run. So I take advantage and I run

| I sat on the sandy beach. A large board lay on my lap. On the board rested a piece of paper. This paper was covered in the pencil marks of my half finished drawing that I was working on. Chewing on the end of my 5B drawing pencil I studyed it intently. The sand I hadnt put much effort into yet. I was working more on the water and sunset I had seen the day I started the drawing. I always enjoyed drawing. It let me express whatever emotions I was feeling at the time, somthing that was all too important for a child of Eros. My eyes squinted with focus as i stroked my pencil on the paper to build more waves in the water. Then I tossed the pencil and board to the side, into the sand. ADHD made it hard to concentrate on my drawings for too long. I looked further down the beach for somthing to grasp my attention. For once there actualy was somthing down there. Not too far away was a jogger going down the beach. She stoped suddenly, she seemed out of breath. I tucked some of my orange bangs behind my ear, as I so often did. "Want some company?" I hollared to her. She wasnt far enough away for me to shout, but i did need to elevate my voice slightly. | |

| I looked up and seen someone I smiled, and nodded at her question, I walked over, while putting my bottle in my sholder bag As I moved closer, I started brushing sand off my shorts, and legs. I moved over,"Yes sure" I said as I sat down a few feet away, and removed my cap, My long black hair tumbled down myback in small knots of frise here and there. I my face pulled into a small smile, and offered her my hand in greeting, "Colby" I said nicly | |

| I watched the young girl walk over and sit by me. Her long dark locks made me slightly jealous, but that feeling quickly subsided. That was one of the troubles of being a child of Eros, emotions came and went really quick, or they stuck around for too long. Bipolar was a word I heard wispered behind my back all too often. I took her hand in greeting "Jennie, daughter of Eros. Who is your godly parent?" I asked curiosly. | |

| My eyes widened and my eyebrows raised when i heard her responce. "Nyx?" I said with a little surpise in my voice. I had no idea she had ever mated with humans. "That makes us really closely related then doesnt it?" I continued remebering that Eros and Nyx were directly related in some form or another, most likely siblings. Which made Colby and I much closer cousins then most of the other kids at camp. "So do you go running often?" I asked, trying to keep the conversation going. | |

| I nodded, "Often, not everyday or anything, normaly If I stay up long enough at night, it's almost like getting drunk, clueless, fun, hyper. Only with better relexes,so I run, maybe ten steps, maybe ten miles" I said like it was normal. I drew siggy lines in the sand. My ADHD mind wonderfreely. Thinking. About everything really, just little things, no one ever thinks about. I wondered, if we were all really doomed to a bad ending. Could we really? | |

| I nodded in agreement with her. I totaly understood were she was coming from. It was like my drawing or gutair playing. It was a release for her. When she started drawing in the sand I couldnt help but feel a little insulted. Was I not interesting enough? I thought. But i quickly calmed myself, writting it off to my quick and touchy emotions. She has ADHD too, I had to remind myself. As the older one in the conversation I took it upon myself to keep the conversation going. "So how long have you been coming to camp?" I asked with a bent head, trying to meet her eyes. | |
