Confused and not alone(open)

I stumbled for moment looking around. I had just fallen asleep in my bunk at the Apollo cabin and when I opened my eyes, I ended up here. In the middle of what seemed like a forest. I stumbled out of the patches of dense forest to find a creek. I went to the edge and splashed some water on my face. It was nice and cold. As I felt the droplets drip down my neck and soak my blonde hair, I felt as if eyes were watching me. I turned quickly and saw nothing. “Who’s there?” I heard nothing but still felt the eyes. I began to panic as I screamed “Who are you? What do you want?”

When the girl turned around abruptly, I spun behind a tree, hoping she didn't notice me. She began to call out and ask who was there. I considered showing myself, but I decided against it. I'm not a stalker, I just saw her wake up here. I was curious why. She couldn't be a mortal, we were still in the borders. She looked a bit familiar, but I didn't get a close enough look at her or her clothing to tell if she was from camp. I held my breath and closed my eyes, hoping I would blend into the tree and all the plants around me.

I thought I had heard a faint breath but I wasn’t sure. It was too dark for me to see anything and I had only one way to see. I dipped my hand in the water and brought it out as the water shown gold and brightened the area around me. I saw the tip of a foot peeking out from behind a tree and I quietly unsheathed a knife that I kept in my boot. I crept quietly and smoothly up to the tree and cornered the watcher with my knife poised at the throat. Once I saw it was just a girl near my age, I relaxed and put my knife away. “You scared me. I am sorry. I am Stella, by the way.” I said as I held out my hand.

I was walking down the forest, trying to clear my head from what was real and fake about this world. How could all of this be real? I asked myself silently. I made my way through the trees when I heard a panicked scream, "Who are you? What do you want?" Adrenaline surged through me and I ran towards the voice.

When I reached the voice, I noticed two girls. "Hey, is everything all right?" I asked.

"Sorry," I said nervously when she introduced herself. "I didn't mean to scare you. I'm Sam," I turned the the girl who had just walked up. "I think we're okay," I said quietly. I looke at Stella. She could answer the question for herself too.

I smiled at Sam reassuringly so she wouldn’t be scared of the knife I had held to her throat not moments before. I turned to the other girl and smiled in a friendly manner. “Hi. Yes. I believe we are alright. I just got a little scared when I felt her watching me. I am not good in the dark. I prefer sunlight. I’m Stella. You are?” I asked.
