An Unexpected Party [EVERYONE]

[Alexia Knight]

A Little Party Never Killed Nobody

So We Gonna Dance Until We Drop...

The Nosi were becoming more and more threatening around camp. Spreading mental, emotional and physical pain. Alexia hadn't left the infirmary in what seemed like months. Alexia had taken it upon herself to help out, more and more campers were being effected by the sickness. Now the Apollo cabin were capable of healing the physical pain. Dionysus' cabin played an important role too though, they helped clear the mental pain. However for the emotional pain, they were on their own. It was very draining, the work that Alexia and her sister, Abi had been doing. Abi and Alexia were the only children of Dionysus at Camp Half Blood. Well there were two others, Jason and Samantha...but they hadn't been seen in months and Alexia and her sister were getting worried. Jason and Sam are very capable demigods, I'm sure they're just fine she would tell herself from time to time when she couldn't help but imagine the worst.

Both the Dionysus girls were having less and less time to themselves lately, so when those precious moments did come, they weren't to be wasted. A Party. Their dad was known for throwing the best ones, why couldn't they do the same. It was an end of the Summer Jam, so to speak. It was to be held t the Fireworks beach and everyone would be there. They had been planning it for weeks and now the time was finally upon them.

The Fireworks beach was done up to perfection. Lights twinkled in the nearby trees and tables were set out on the beach holding food and non-alcoholic drinks. It was a sight for sore eyes. The water and the waves helped her relax. The beach was empty and Alexia closed her eyes for a brief moment before opening them and continuing to walk down the beach, checking to make sure that everything was to perfection and Hermes proof. Later the annual fireworks were going to be displayed and organized by the Hephaestus cabin. It was always such a great distraction from the tragedy that seemed to surround this camp. Lost in her thoughts she shook her head and focused on her party planning.

Alexia was good at keeping others spirits up which is why she was always needed in the infirmary she was the ray of sunshine. Maybe that was thanks to her dad, being the god of drunks and parties and all that fun and happy stuff. Swiftly, she moved over to a table with the deep purple tablecloths that draped over every table on the beach. Raising a hand in the direction of the table, she closed her eyes and began to grow grape vines that entangled the legs of the table. Giving it a wonderful look.

Satisfied with her work she looked around. All done. Just in time too, campers were just starting to arrive.

[Devin Sampat]

Devin had never been one for parties, especially parties at Camp Half-Blood. They were far too noisy and chaotic, often degenerating into a massive brawl thanks to the overabundance of weapons and sugar-spiked foods. And if he wasn't trying to avoid being drawn into an impromptu swordfight, he was attempting to dodge immature Hermes campers who were always on the lookout for victims to prank. Why couldn't people understand that no good ever came out of a demigod party?

So when Devin had heard that some Dionysus campers would be hosting a party at Fireworks Beach, he had resisted the urge to walk out of camp right then and there. Instead, he'd settle for the next best thing: locking himself in the Demeter cabin, where he could relax, perhaps learns a new chord progression or two or just read.

Unfortunately, his cabin mates had other plans for him. Just as Devin was starting to get comfortable in his bunk, a few of his siblings confronted him, arguing that he needed to be more social before practically dragging him out of the cabin with them. Why couldn't they just leave him alone? He didn't want to be stabbed, pranked, or made deaf tonight. But they wouldn't take no for an answer, and Devin finally acquiesced, sullenly following them towards the beach.

Thankfully, the party hadn't really kicked off yet, so it wasn't too crowded. Perhaps he could just grab something to eat before slipping out. Yes, that's what he'd do. With this plan in mind, Devin left his brothers and sisters, heading for the snacks. Hopefully, they'd stop paying attention to him now and go off and get injured have fun without him.

Devin snagged a bottle of water and some cookies off the table before inspecting the seal on the bottle. It appeared to be intact, but maybe the Hermes campers had figured out some way to reseal bottles after spiking them? One could never be too careful. Spotting a Dionysus camper, Devin approached her and asked, "Excuse me, are these safe to consume?" He held out the water bottle and the cookies. "Have any Hermes campers touched the snack table yet?"

[Mia Clifton]

When news had gotten around that there would be a party at Fireworks Beach, some of the other Huntresses had insisted on not going. After all, it was bound to be filled with boys and annoying Aphrodite girls. But Mia didn't particularly care about the presence of those things, not when there was a party to be had on the beach, aka one of her favorite places in the world. Besides, she was hoping she'd see Nathan and his "friend" here, so she could embarrass him a bit because that's what any good older sister did, right? He'd had the nerve to grow taller than her, so he deserved some gentle teasing.

After Mia arrived at the beach, she surveyed the party. It was still rather early, and there weren't too many people but that would surely change soon. She didn't see Nathan anywhere or his "friend", which was a bit disappointing, but she was sure they'd show up eventually. In the meantime, she'd just enjoy the party herself as it was a welcome relief after everything the Camp had been through over the summer. Grabbing a plate of junk food, Mia settled down on the sand, away from the mass of people, and just observed, letting the music and hum of conversation wash over her.

A Little Party Never Killed Nobody

So We Gonna Dance Until We Drop...

The summer sun was setting just below the horizon and the lights were taking their full effect. The lights sparkled in Alexia's eyes as she looked at them and smiled. The party was slowly gathering occupants. Excellent. Alexia grabbed a goblet full of purple liquid, about to take a sip when words came from beside her. 

"Excuse me, are these safe to consume?"

Alexia nearly choked on the non existent liquid in her throat and had almost grabbed for the dagger safely stashed at her side. When she realized that it was just one of the other campers, Demeter she assumed. "Yes." she said eyeing the water bottle in the boy's hand. "If you don't believe me...try it." she said taking a sip from her own goblet. "If it's poison, then there are plenty of Apollo kids around" she added with a small smile. "They will save you...i'm sure" 

"Have any Hermes campers touched the snack table yet?"

Alexia looked around, no Hermes campers were at the party yet, but she never ruled that out. She pointed down to the ivory plants that tangled up the side of the tables. "See these?" she asked. "They are enchanted to sense Hermes trickery, apparently, it has a sent or a feeling in the air." she gestured her hand in the air. "Abi and I have thought of everything." she said smiling.

A Million Feelings.A Thousand Thoughts.

A Hundred Memories.All For One Person.

Party Time!! Nathan had been sitting around in the Apollo cabin tossing a ball at the wall when he heard about the party. He had a half thought that maybe he should go to the Poseidon cabin first and get Sara...No...she'd think he was weird and way to clingy. He ran a slender hand through his hair, as he often did when he was nervous. Maybe he should stay back. No he couldn't he couldn't be this nervous around her all the time.

Nathan walked the cobbled stone paths of camp, he saw the loom of the lights in the trees and the small flickers of lights from candles or whatever was placed on the tables. Smiling he entered the festivities. Nathan walked around for a while, Sara wasn't there yet. Oh well. She was supposed to be there eventually. He was about to grab some food off the table when he spotted a girl sitting in the sand, she was unmistakable. Mia Clifton. Nathan's sister.

He sat in the sand next to her and grabbed a piece of something off her plate of junk food. "Hiya" he said munching on the chip he ended up snagging. "Having fun?" he asked stupidly. The party had just started. Nathan looked around the party once more, impatient for the moment that Sara would walk through the metaphorical gates of the party. Returning his gaze to his sister "Are you waiting for someone?" he asked

[Mia Clifton]

It didn't take long for someone Mia knew to show up, and it was none other than Nathan himself. Unfortunately, his "friend" was nowhere to be found. Maybe she was sick? Or maybe they had broken up before they had even gotten together? However, before she could consider the matter further, Nathan reached out and grabbed a crisp off her plate. "Oi!" She swatted at his hand. "Get your own food!"

At his second question, Mia smiled. "Yeah. This party's pretty nice." She paused before pretending to scowl. "Well, as nice as it can get when there's a brute stealing my food." Her scowl broke, and Mia laughed lightly. However, it seemed as if Nathan had stopped paying attention to her, instead choosing to glance around distractedly, and there was only one thing (or rather, person) she could think of that he could be searching for.

Finally, he turned towards her. "I'm not, but I know someone who is." Mia gave him a wicked smirk. "Who're you looking for?" she asked, raising an eyebrow.

[Abigale North]

Abi had made sure that everything was in order a couple hours before. Of course, she knew that Alexia would be able to handle it, so she showed up a little late. She was glad to see the party starting to get into full swing by the time she walked in. Cody being the DJ, her sister at the food table, people talking and dancing. The perfect type of non-alcholic party they could have. She quickly walked over to Cody, reminding him once again, that if someone complained to him about a song being played to just change the song. It wasn't worth a fight. Plus, a fight would just ruin the whole night.

Nodding to him, she turned back around and couldn't help but grin slyly when she saw a certain Hermes boy start sneaking up on the table. Logan was sneaking around the back and it looked like he had a vial of something. Instead of raising alarm, Abi stood and watched. And sure enough, the vines around the legs of the table shot out and grabbed Logan's ankles before flipping him upside down. The vial falling to the floor. Abi jumped with excitement before rushing over to Alexia, and another boy she believed was named Devin. "It worked! It's full-proof! This'll save us the trouble of keeping an eye out all night." She picked up the vial and tossed it in a nearby trashcan, earning a complaint from Logan.

With a twist of her hand the vine released him and Logan fell in a crumpled heap, but quickly stood up, glaring at her as he dusted the sand off himself and walked off. She turned back to her sister and the boy with a grin. "How are things here?" She turned to Devin and held out her hand. "I'm Abi, by the way."

[Cody Thompson]

Cody of course had showed up before anybody else. This being because setting up the musical equipment and making sure it all worked took a little bit longer. He showed up so early in fact, that Abi and Alexia had been there finalizing the finishing touches. With iPod in hand he quickly looked through the list of music that was playing tonight. He had started taking requests for the party a couple weeks in advance so that he was able to get all the wanted music. Of course, he also had the music that was already on his iPod. Being the DJ of the party was just fine with him. He didn't like dancing with random people, and if he didn't handle the music, someone who didn't know the equipment as well as he did would probably be in charge.

He couldn't have that. He watched as all the people started to walk in and nodded enthusiastically to Abi's rule. Of course. That was only common sense. He also made sure to get the non-explicit versions of songs just in case Chiron happened by. Wouldn't want vulgarity flying around. The music that first started the night off was upbeat with no lyrics. People had to talk to find one another and he didn't want words getting in the way. But once he saw that people had stopped filing in, the requests started. First on the list? Can't Hold Us by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis. Cody shook his head, but ended up smiling as the fast paced lyrics flowed out of the nearby speakers. Loud enough for people to hear, but still just quite enough to not have to yell over it if you wanted to speak.

[Summer Frost]

Before she headed to the party, Summer had to make one quick pit stop. The Hades Cabin. After bagging on her brother and making excuse after excuse, she finally was able to tug him out of his cabin. But of course, the young son of Hades complained the whole way to the beach. In a way, Summer did feel bad. He did still have slight bruising, but at the same time, she knew he couldn't just sit in his cabin moping around. He needed to get out. Who knew, maybe the party would put him in slightly better spirits.

Finally arriving at the party, her eyes scanned the crowd as she let go of Mitch's jacket sleeve. Leave it to the son of the Underworld to still come fully dressed to the beach of all places. She rolled her eyes and looked at him. "Look, just please, for me. Go interact. Go find new friends. Move on." She knew that he couldn't just move on but she really wanted him too. She turned back to the crowd and saw her siblings sitting a bit from the party together. With a smile she headed over to Mia and Nathan.

Upon arriving next to the two siblings, she sat down next to Nathan so he was in the middle. "How are you two enjoying the party so far?" A grin settled on her face as she leaned over Nathan and grabbed a cookie off of Mia's plate. She put one hand in the sand behind her and leaned back slightly so she could see the party, Mitch, and her other Apollo siblings.

[Mitch Frost]

Mitch had been woken up, from his fifth nap of the day, to his sister, Summer, hovering over him and tapping him repeatedly. Of course the young man just glared at her when she said that he needed to some with her to the party. Yeah, arrive with her at the party only to be left behind as soon as she got there and found her friends. It's what happened at the last party. But, after some moaning and groaning, his end of course, she finally talked him into getting up and going. But, she couldn't make him change. The girl that he had fallen for wasn't here. She'd never be here. He let out a sigh as he was almost drug to the beach.

When they got there, it was only a couple seconds before his sister turned to him and spoke in such a tone to him that he gaped at her. She had the audacity to tell him to move on. He glared at her back as she walked over to where Mia and Nathan sat. Vaguely he wondered if Mia knew that Katrina was dead because of him. But it wasn't like he was going to go up to her and tell her. With a final glance, he looked down at the ground and headed over to the food. He was quite starving, but it was only to be certain thanks to sleeping almost all day. He grabbed a plate and filled it up with as much junk food as possible before heading over to the tables. He quickly sat down and without another look up started eating the food as his mind raced with his thoughts.

[Devin Sampat]

The Dionysus girl Devin had addressed finally turned around and confirmed that the food was safe. He narrowed his eyes and glanced down at the water bottle he was holding. Was she telling the truth? The girl seemed to read his mind and took a sip from her own cup, proving that the beverages-- or at least whatever she was drinking-- were safe. The girl then quipped that there were Apollo kids here who could save him, and Devin resisted the urge to scoff. "I'd prefer not having to rely on a bunch of teenagers to save my life."

In response to his question about the Hermes kids, the girl pointed out the vines wrapped around the table. He had thought they were just for decoration, an homage to Mr. D. "And what exactly do-" He suddenly stopped, noticing a boy with elven features being held upside down by a vine. Another girl, presumably the "Abi" the first girl had referred to, bounded up to them before manipulating the vines and letting them drop the boy on his head. Devin gave a nod of grudging respect. "Impressive."

The second girl introduced herself and held out her hand, so Devin gave her a firm handshake, trying to remind himself to remain civil. "I'm Devin. Nice to meet you."

[Sara Winters]

Party. Beach. Two words that Sara loved. Even more so when they were put together. Sara couldn't help but let a huge smile over take her features as she walked from her cabin the the beach. She had never felt more excited for a party at Camp Half-Blood than she did today. Dressed in a plaid shirt, two sizes, too big and shorts, she didn't look like she was headed to an LA club. But this was camp and the party did say casual. But, of course she had to put her own spin on things. She let a little skip into her step as she hit the sand. Her eyes took in the scene and people and in the back of her mind she knew she'd have to tell Alexia and Abi that they did great! The two girls really knew how to decorate.

Her eyes continued scanning the beach and it wasn't long until she saw three people, two girls and a boy, sitting together. She immediately recognized the hair of the boy and was able to tell the two girls when they turned their faces slightly. Her heart picked up its pace for a minute until she hmph'd. She didn't want to go over there and intrude on Nathan's time with his sisters. So, she turned to the music just as one of her suggestions came on. Classic by MKTO. She grinned again and went to go dance. As she danced, she felt a pair or arms slid around her waist. She froze for a moment until she turned and saw David's face.

With a laugh she went back to dancing, her hands resting on top of David's, this time with one of her best friends. Her mind losing itself in the music and not realizing how this could look to some people.

The sun was setting, Nathan smiled at Mia as she yelled at him playfully and he crunched on the chip. “But it’s way over there!” he said, ignoring her swat. “And it’s just soo hard when I’m soo lazy” he added chuckling a bit. Nathan nodded in agreement with Mia, the party was really nice “Alexia and Abi have outdone themselves” he said admiring the Hermes security system. Nathan didn't take offense, it was Mia. “Hey! What happened to sharing is caring?” he added, pretending to look hurt. Nathan took the opportunity to try and glance around again but was stopped short. Turning to Mia he looked shocked "What..I-I'm not looking for anyone." he stammered out lamely.

He was soon saved by the arrival of his other sister, Summer. She had left her other brother, the Hades kid to wander around. She took the seat to the right of him and couldn't help but chuckle as she too snatched food from Mia. "It's really great" he repeated. He joined Summer in taking a look around again and seeing a bobbing (She was probably dancing) head of blonde. Sara! and....some guy?

The world tipped of it's axis. What was Sara doing, dancing with another guy? He thought they had a thing...he wasn't too sure what it was but it was defiantly something. Nathan turned away from the spectacle hastily, frowning. Even the groovy words of MKTO's song Classic couldn't brighten his mood. "My dear sisters" he began formally. "You both know Sara Winters..right? Good" he said, not waiting for an answer. "Who is THAT she is dancing with?" he asked, the jealous green monster hanging on his back like a rucksack.

A Little Party Never Killed Nobody

So We Gonna Dance Until We Drop...

Hermes camper 4 o'clock. Alexia smirked into her glass. "Watch our creations in effect then" she said to the Demeter boy. Taking another swig from her goblet. As Logan, one of the Hermes campers snuck up around the back, with a vial in his hands. Alexia watched in amusement as the vines shot out and grabbed Logan's ankles before flipping him upside down. Abi jumped in, out of no where excitement written all over her face. Alexia laughed "I know, that was the perfect way to jump start this party." she said "Now we can enjoy our night without worry" The boy fell to the ground and mumbled as he ran away. "Things are great. Party is moving swiftly along. Veronica and Katerina are setting up the fireworks now." she said smiling. OH SHOOT! Her name. "I'm Alexia" she added on after her sister.

Alexia rolled her eyes, smiling all the while. "Well there is always, Mallory and Chiron." Mallory was the counselor at camp, she was a daughter of Hecate and the Infirmary leader.

"Impressive"

She curtsied "It's what we do" she said glancing over at her sister. Devin...that was his name!

[Lindsay Roseberry]

Why you think I'm dancin' in these uncomfortable shoes?

I did it all, I did it all, I did it all for you.

A twirl to finish off her prep work. “There perfect” she said to her mirror that was hung up on the back of the bathroom door. Being the only child of Persephone meant that she had the cabin all to herself, all the time. Yeah it was lonely but it is what it is. Lindsay fluffed her hair checked her light pink lipstick again for the last time and headed out the door.

The party was beautiful, the Fireworks beach was done up to perfection. Lights twinkled in the nearby trees and tables were set out on the beach holding food and drinks. Moving gracefully across the room she reached the drink table. Lindsay grabbed an empty goblet, they were the goblets from the dining hall, and soon Lindsay’s cup was filled with pink sparkling liquid. She moved towards the tables, her heels were too uncomfortable to dance in, as of yet. She found one where a boy dressed in black sat with a plate of food.

“Mind if I join you?”
