A Sunny Day Near the Creek [Yume]

(I'm going to try in first person. This is Riley.)

I walk out to the creek, and smile. It's a completely sunny day! I absolutely love sunshine. Maybe it has to do with me being a daughter of Apollo. I love how the sun reflects on the creek, making the water turn a yellowish pink color. Still having a wide smile across my face, I sit down in a dryer area, near the shore of the river. I look up to the cloudless sky and the beautiful sun. I absolutely love today!

( Ok xD and this is kanda... jsut in case.)

I waked up the creek, thinking it would be calmer than anywhere else. Mugen at my side, I stay in the shadow. It was too sunny, and I hated it. If I could, I would steal the sun. But that's impossible. I sat on the ground and started meditating. Just before I even start, I saw a girl. I sigh and whispered " Why was I forced to come here, uh? Living in the streets or being an experimantal subject was that bad."

I was still staring up at the absolutely beautiful sunshine, when I realize there was someone next to me, meditating. You didn't see that everyday. I smiled brightly. After hearing what he said, I looked at him, blankly. I was confuzzled; what did her mean? "...Huh? Living on the streets? Experimental subject...?" I cocked my head to one side, expecting an explanation.

I look up at the girl, my usual dark look staring at her. "Childhood. Nothing you really need to know." I replied, pretty coldly. She was reminding me of Yuki, in a certain (weird) way. I sigh and explained shortly " Before I arrived at camp, I was living in the street with my brother and my sister. Then, people found us. You don't want to know the rest" I closed my eyes, and kept meditating.

I was still kind of confused, but I just smiled, "Ohhh, M'kay," I said, cheerfully. I looked at him with my yellow tinted eyes. It wasn't very obvious who his god parent could be. Why was his hair weird? "Your hair's blue? Why?" she asked, curiously, but with enthusiasm.

" I was born like this" I simply answered, passing a hand through my hair, absent mindly. I simply stopped doing anything, knowing I wouldn't be in peace right now. I'll just do it later, or before sleeping. " What's your name anyway?" I asked politely. I didn't liked talking, but if we were going to stay here, as well start to know each other.

ooc: omgs... I feel so bad that kanda is actually being so mean and all.... but I can't change it since he's like that D8

OOC: Switching back to third person POV. It's just role-playing; your character can be as mean as he wants xD

Riley smiled, thinking, why was he born weird? "Blue hair is cool!" She continued to smile. Blue hair was pretty interesting. Riley liked blue. It was like the sky, and the the sky was pretty. "My name is Riley. I like my name," she said proudly.

" Well then. Nice to meet you, Riley." I replied, calm. I got back on my feet. I put my back against the nearest tree. I took out my hand so she could shake it " Yu kanda." I told her my name. Like I said before ,this was only to be polite. And since I was kindda bored.

Riley nodded, slowly, "Yu?" She thought the name was kind of silly. "That's a... ummm... unique name," Riley said, putting a wide smile on my face. "My dad's Apollo! The sun god. Who's your parent? The god one?" she asked.

" Hermes. And my name sounds weird to you because it's japanese." I replied, seeing on her face she was finding my name kind of... silly or weird, or whatever. I was used to the reaction " Oh and please, call me kanda, not yu." I hate when someone call me yu. That's one of the reason I hate that guy bookman so much.

"Oh, kay!" She said, cheerfully. She smiled, happily, but then frowned. Something felt wrong about being here, talking to this other camper, but she just couldn't put her finger on it. Confused, she brushed the odd feeling aside, and smiled, "How long have you been here? Not like right here, but how long have you been going to camp?"

" 3 years. How about you?" I asked back, looking from the corner of my eyes at her. The ambiance was kindda weird. But I didn't really care. I pass a random hand through my hair. I removed the one that were in my face.

Riley smiled, ignoring whatever was making her feel like she should leave, "Hmmm. 2. Ya, 2 years," she said, still holding her wide smile. She looked up at the bright blue sky, and said, "So, Kanda?" then she blurted out, "Do you like green? I don't know why; I just always associate Hermes kids with that color but... I don't know... so, ya. Do you?"

I had a small laugh, kindda sarcasitc. " Not really, no. Do you?" I replied, crossing my arms around my chest, holding mugen, the blade toward the ground. Like that, I would be ready if anything (like a monster) would come and attack us, out of nowhere.
