Going Out With A Bang {Open}

[Veronica Stilinski]

With the party going on slightly down the beach, Veronica stood about 100 yards away.  The fireworks that were due to be set off as soon as the camp was plunged into darkness, or near the end of the party, were just about ready.  Ronnie was finishing up those touches, after telling Katerina that she could go party til the sun goes down.  Figuratively of course.  When they set of the fireworks she might need an extra bout of fire power, so her sister would have to come back.  She looked at all the mechanics and grinned.  It had taken her a bit to set up, but once done, it was a marvelous thing.

There were all the varieties that were due to set off.  But, not only that, she had a special sort of firework for the finale that would take on each of the gods and goddess.  Not their figures of course, but the outcome would look like the god(dess) symbol and take on their color.  As soon as she heard the party was going to have fireworks, she had set out to make them.  After many tries, she was glad to say they worked flawlessly.  She let herself fall back on the sand as she set next to all the beautiful work.  Someone had to watch over it and make sure that no one touched it, messed with it, ruined it, or set it off early.  Who Best than one of the main creators and someone who wouldn't be afraid to use a little fire power to protect her investment.  

As she sat, her foot tapped to the beat.  Her stomach growled, but she couldn't risk leaving everything to go and eat.  So instead, she tried to focus her mind on something else.  She produced a small ball of fire and tossed it back and forth in her hands like she was juggling.

[Daniel Collins]

You know I'm just tired of the weight of
the world on my shoulders.

You know I'm just human...Human after all.

The Zeus cabin was empty, as usual. Daniel stood in front of the cold stone statue of his father. It wasn't an unusual occurrence. Daniel sometimes tried to talk to his father, pray to him even. He couldn't help but want an answer sometimes and he prayed that he could be normal sometimes. It was hard, to feel like an outsider, to be ashamed of how you were born, to have to hide who you are. It's lonely to know you're special and have to live like a shadow. Daniel never used his powers, they felt dangerous to him. But these were thoughts for another time, there was a party to get to.

Arriving at Fireworks beach, Daniel went directly to the food. He nodded greetings at Alexia and Abi, Nathan Lockwood, who looked as if he had just seen a ghost. Daniel hadn't eaten all day and so he filled his plate with an assortment of junk food. He took off on a stroll. He heard that one of the Hephaestus campers were out here off of the beach guarding the fireworks. Daniel walked for what seemed like 10 minutes.

Daniel reached a sort of clearing in the woods. Emerging from one of the bushes he saw the girl he had heard about. Her name escaped him but he knew she must be starving. "Hi...I brought you some food" he said smiling. "I mean only if you want some" he added hesitantly. "I'm Daniel by the way."

[Veronica Stilinski]

As she heard a sound behind her, the flame that Ronnie had been tossing back and forth went out like a light. (Get it, fire is a light. I'm punny) She looked over her shoulder and noticed a boy walking towards her. An eyebrow rose, was he here to cause trouble? Maybe it was good one of them stayed behind and watched the fireworks. He looked familiar, but she couldn't place where exactly she had seen him, until he said his name. Ahhh yes, Daniel. The only son of Zeus currently at camp. Knowing who it was, she relaxed. He was no threat, at least to the fireworks. Well she hoped, she had never really spoken to him.

At the mention of food, she nodded her head, almost too quickly. "Yes please. I skipped out on lunch to make sure this was all set up properly. Took awhile but it's perfect." Her voice had a hint or proudness as she talked about her accomplishment. She patted the spot on the sand next to her as an invitation for Daniel to sit. She waited until he did before holding out her and for him to shake. "Veronica. Or Ronnie. Or V. Either one of those works." She waited for him to shake her hand before snatching a little vine of grapes. She popped one in her mouth before speaking again.

"So, what brings you all the way out here instead of staying at the party?" She could vaguely hear the music. Just enough to know it was a good dancing beat, but she couldn't hear the words and idly she wondered what song it was that was playing.
