    The wood was cracking joyfully in the fire, the changing flames dancing while casting a baking-hot aura around it in a perimeter of thirty centimeters as well as crooked shadows that looked like harpy hands. Several Hunters were gathered around the fire pit, warming themselves in it's invigorating temperature while chatting and laughing, like a family - well, they kind of were a family, since they were all sisters-in-arms.

    Aria was sitting cross-legged between Brianna and Juliette, listening to their conversation rather silently. The black-haired girl was wearing a pair of white, slightly ripped jeans as well as a black shirt and a silvery ski jacket that glistened faintly in the fire light. The flames were casting flickering shadows and moving light on her facial features, making her turquoise-blue eyes shine at changing intervals.
    Aria's gaze was moving from Hunter to Hunter, following the conversation, while a sphinx-like smile played on her dark lips. For once, her black hair wasn't braided, but fell over her right shoulder, the strains slightly creased at the end, getting strangely blue highlights in the fire light.
    Earth covered her army boots as she slightly moved her feet in order to have a more comfortable cross-legged sitting position, and took a sharpening stone, starting to sharpen one of her two long silver hunting knives.

    Soon, Nymeria, Aria's she-wolf, came up and lied down behind her mistress; the daughter of Apollo absent-mindedly scratched her silvery ears and white-and-grey head, putting her sharpening stone down.
    As she gazed around the Hunters gathered around the fire pit, all of their silvery aura glistening faintly like moonlight, Aria realized she was the oldest here - and by far. All of the Hunters here were born in the late twentieth century, while she was born in 1701. She had been a Hunter for a wee bit more than three centuries now, and if she had been given the choice again, Hunt or Camp, she would choose the same.

    ~Juliette Cai~Looks 16 but 20~Child of Nike~Hunter of Artemis~

    Watching as the flames were flicking about, dancing a bit with the wind, and then fighting each other, crackling the odd time, it was a bit of a mesmerizing thing, and it locked you in a trance if you weren't careful. Fires of their own were the beast that was never tamed, and sometimes if not careful you could get caught up in it or it'd go out of control. Although fires were least of their concerns these days, and they always had them in a controlled manner.

    As she blinked her eyes, Juliette came back to reality, and she could hear some of her fellow hunters talking. They were laughing, mentioning things and just having a good time. Being a hunter, to some girls who hadn't been one and thought about it, they'd say anyone who joined was crazy, because of their lust for the male species. Juliette on the other hand hated the male species besides her own father and grandfather. Family didn't count, they were always just there for you, but other ones, were cunning, back stabbing, and often times only wanted one thing. Juliette was never really interested in any of those relations either. Although it wasn't to say she didn't think about her options during her five years of training she did with her father and grandfather, but when it came down to it, she knew the hunters was always her place, she had a better chance of fitting in, and she had looked up to them in a way.

    The fire crackled again, and Juliette could feel small paws slightly tapping against her, and she looked down and smiled. Seeing her little Nen. He was so adorable and basically her baby. Jules petted Nen's belly and then tried to play with him a bit and she was smiling and laughing. Nen and Argent were part of her family too. Argent being th mother of Nen, and sitting beside Jules. Juliette remembered when she found the two, of course Nen wasn't a pup anymore, but he still acted as one and was absolutely adorable.

    Sitting there, she brushed some strands of hair back and behind her ear, she had, had her hair up in a half pony tail today. She had managed to have woven in some braids as well, she had always liked to keep her hair nice, although she knew in hunts and stuff, that never mattered. Juliette had on a nice pair of black leggings and a blue and black plaid shirt. She didn't go for a nice and polished look, but a comfy, and cute look suited her just fine. Especially nice she was just sitting around the fire with the other hunters. Juliette then turned to Aria and gave her a smile. Despite the rough exterior she had sometimes, she was softer with her sisters-in-arms, they were apart of her knew family now. Jules knew she was one of the youngest hunters here. Some being born in the 17th century and such on, meanwhile she was born in 1992. By now if she had picked, camp over this, she'd be a camp alumni, and that scared her in a way, Juliette liked having some where to be at all times, and being needed somewhere, it was just how she had been.

    The vibrant flames danced around in the pit they were held in. Strange how they were in a hole, as if it was a prison. It made sense, since she had always heard the expression saying that fire was a wild beast that cannot be tamed. Jessica folded her knees under her, causing a more comfortable sitting position. She held a marshmallow over the flame, causing it to slightly burn. She pulled it out quickly, not wanting to ruin her snack. She broke a graham cracker before sticking the delicate marshmallow into the middle of the two. She slid a square of Hershey's chocolate in between the crackers, biting into the small little sandwich she had made. Crumbs stuck all over her face, and she giggled slightly when she wiped it off with her sleeve. Luna had managed to squeeze right next to her, licking the chocolate off of her fingers. She pulled her hand away, not wanting Luna to get sick. A whimper was heard from the wolf before Jessica had glanced at the other hunters.

    An eerie silence was among them, and Jessica hated silence. She was patting the top of Luna's head, making her sort of forget about the silence that filled the forest. It didn't do much, but Luna comforted her. Jessica looked around once more, feeling a little bit of confidence; she was usually very shy and didn't talk in silences like this.
    "So, how are you guys...?" She asked loud enough to be audible, yet quiet enough to still be shy.

    Aria caught Jules's smile and responded in the same way, showing a bit of her teeth. Nymeria put her head on Aria's right knee, quite heavy against the girl's leg, but it didn't bother the Hunter, who put her hand behind her ears, digging her fingers into the wolf's soft, fluffy fur. Nymeria closed her honey-colored eyes.

    There was a silence in the conversation as Jessica made an improvised sandwich with a roasted marshmallow, crackers and chocolate, and tried to eat it. Chocolate ran down her fingers, which she licked, giggling, while her wolf, Luna, tried to get some of the sweet brown liquid too.

    Aria smiled innerly even though she didn't betray it on her outside - she wasn't quite the type of showing her feelings openly.

    Jessica noticed the silence, patted her wolf's head and looked around.

    "So, how are you guys?" she asked, clearly embarrassed.

    This time, Aria allowed her sphinx-like smile to come onto her dark lips. She brushed a strain of black hair behind her ear and gazed at Jessica with her turquoise eyes.

    "Is the chocolate tasty?" she asked with a grin.

    Bri sat in between Jessica and Aria, carefully making a s'more with a serious face on. She had no intention of really joking around at the moment. She carefully put the pieces of chocolate and marshmallow on the graham cracker and put it through a stick. She then hung it over the fire, waiting.

    She then heard giggling from one of the girls beside her. She figured it was Jessica, since she was sort of the goofiest out of all of them. Bri pulled out her s'more and took a small bite out of the melted chocolate with sticky marshmallow and burnt crackers. She hadn't had one for a while, since she never came to the campfire events anymore.

    Sighing, she replied to the question Jessica asked her with a "Fine," and then munching on her s'more once again.

    Juliette Cai - Sixteen years old - Daughter of Nike

    Juliette had sat there and continued to play with her wolf pup. She enjoyed playing and making him get all excited, it made her smile and have a sense of ease, it was the only thing that made her soften up a bit. Soon she heard some giggling and her eyes shifted over to Jessica who had made a s'more. Jules wasn't really one for s'mores these days, they were too messy and high in sugar, she had to keep in top shape for training and their was no doubt  about that. Jules cleared her throat a bit and she went back to being silent and staring at the flickering flames.

    It was chilly out tonight, but there was always warmth radiating off of the fire, and somehow trying to warm up the whole lot of them. Although camping out like this, you were used to the cold most times rather than none. That was when the whole group was almost silent at once. Juliette felt part responsible for it but it was a two way street after all. Soon the smell of marshmellow, camp fire and the pine trees were flooding her nostrils and she exhaled out; they were the smells of home to her now. She heard what Jessica asked to them all and she thought upon it or a few moments and then gave a reply, "I'm alright, Jessica, how about yourself?" She asked the girl. Jules wasn't always one to socialize but these people were part of her family, it never hurt to try.

    Juliette had a fire stick in her hand now and she had began to poke at the hot embers making the fire stoke up a bit, and she was giving it more life while moving around some logs in the fire and then she set her stick down. "Anyone do anything interesting lately?" She asked addressing everyone in their little group.

    Seraphina Jessel was a bubbly, optimistic girl who could normally be seen straying away from a given task. She had a wandering, clever little mind and was rarely seen without a smile plastered to her pale face. The Hunter of Artemis emerged from her tent, tugging on her light hair as she wove it neatly into a fishtail braid. She wore a light periwinkle hoodie and a pair of bright white jeans. She grinned seeing her sisters and began to skip toward the fire where she bounded next to her tent mate, Aria. She sat next to her, and crossed her legs clumsily, nearly rolling onto her back in the process.

    Sera's pink cheeks grew warm as she absorbed the heat from the fire. One of her favorite pastimes. From a small, canvas bag, she produced a sealed package of hot dogs. She held it out in front of her and grinned widely. "I've brought sustenance!" She sang, as she opened the package, only to stab one with a stick. "I have enough for everyone, but if you'd like more, I guess you'll have to fight over it... wiener take all." She grinned stupidly. "Get it?!" She laughed, clearly proud of her observational humor. Her laughter subsided and she paused and awaited her sisters' reactions, expecting the usual disapproval for the terrible pun.

    A great smile spread Aria's lips as she saw Sera emerge from their tent. Her sister-in-arms might be physically one year younger than her, they had the same height; Aria laughed politely as Sera almost ended up on her back while trying to sit down cross-legged.
    When the daughter of Harpocrates produced the package of hot dogs, Aria kissed her cheek.

    "Darling, you are amazing!" she smirked and picked one of the sausages before facepalming jokingly at her pun. "Go to sleep, Sera," she laughed as she passed an arm around her sister's narrow shoulders and hugged her a little.

    It was more of a very friendly, almost sororal gesture than a hug; Aria was still after three hundred years a bit cold physically. But with Sera, that just melted away.
    She put her sausage to roast over the fire, watching as it got browner.

    Thalia almost wished the hunt wasn’t over.

    She had spent the last twelve hours chasing a giant Hydra in the depth of Vancouver’s woods, running through the tall trees, and trying hard not to get her new recruits eaten or killed in their first days as immortal hunters. It was actually really fun. She could almost recalled every single moment in Vancouver as she walked back to the Hunter’s camps. Remembering the new hunters’ expressions back in the hunt made Thalia smile. She sighed. She just had so much fun in this hunter world.

    However, as she took her steps back to the headquarters, she couldn’t help it but to feel a little bit dissapointed. Going back home was good, alright, but fighting more monsters were better. She had to admit that she wished someone would come running to her and give her some news like, ‘some monsters are seen lurking around in New York City!’ or ‘New recruits are coming in a few minutes, and you ought to accompany them in their first mission’ sort of things. But alas, nobody came to her with such news as she entered the area. The camp was quite peaceful that day.

    Thalia sighed and looked around. She saw some hunters sitting near the campfire, and having nothing to do at the moment, she walked to the small group and asked to the nearest person beside her, a black haired girl with a black shirt and white jeans, “Hey there, do you mind if I join?”

    Aria looked up to see Thalia, the leader of the Hunt under Artemis. She had short, spiky black hair, a pair of black leather trousers and a shirt that was hidden under her silvery jacket. Skull-shaped earrings graced her earlobes.

    The older Huntress smiled and made space for Thalia next to her; at first, she had had mixed feelings for Thalia. She was sensitive to people who took dead people's place since Anna's death. Anna was a Hunter she had shared a tent with during twenty-one years, and who got beheaded by a strix. Some days later, the Hunt recruited Sera, who had been assigned to Aria as her cabin mate. They had had a stony relationship at first, because Aria treated Sera harshly. It was unconscious, but Sera's presence painfully reminded her of Anna's absence.
    But after a difficult Hunt, their relationship healed; now Sera was Aria's favorite sister-in-arms.

    She had felt the same feeling towards Thalia. After three centuries of hunting with Zoe, it seemed impossible she was gone. Zoe had been like the big sister Aria had never had. And she had been replaced by young Thalia.
    However, after numerous Hunts and the Battle of Manhattan, Aria had forgotten that and seen Thalia as real leader. In addition, she was one of the most fun people Aria knew.

    "That one Hydra was fun," she commented as she looked into the fire, her turquoise eyes gleaming faintly.

    Thalia let out a faint smile and sat next to the girl—Aria.

    “Oh, it was not just fun,” she started, looking at the fire dreamily, recalling the memories of her hunt. “It was extremely exciting. You should see the new recruits’ faces when they saw the hydra. Priceless! They’re pretty tough, though. The team I accompanied was a strong one, alright. Add more hydras and the hunt would be perfect. It was still a good mission, though. You should’ve come along, you know.”

    Thalia’s blue eyes shone with excitement as she told Aria her last hunt. She had to admit that she liked Aria quite a bit. Despite the fact that she was about a hundred or more years older than her, she was really, a great hunter, a wonderful team member, and a cool friend. She was one of the oldest hunters here, no less. She had experienced all sort of things, things that Thalia hadn’t experienced yet, and she also respected Aria for that.

    Thalia cleared her throat, and her face was a mask full of calmness. “So, Aria,” she said, studying her. “How is life treating you?”

    Aria nodded in delight, listening to Thalia as she described the hunt; she loved Thalia's way of narrating because she always included funny details which left them all laughing. As she said it was a pity that there were no more hydras, Aria agreed.

    "It's so dumb there is only one hydra, the hydra of Lerna," she sighed. "They should've written about more, whoever wrote the mythology."

    Yes, more hydras and less striges, Aria thought as she recalled Anna. The pain had dulled over the last century, of course, and now she felt just a bit sad. Centuries could really make feelings fade away. Sometimes it was for the better... like with John, or sometimes for the worse, like with Anna.

    Aria decided she had thought enough about her past life for this evening and looked at Thalia the moment she asked her question.

    "Life?" she smiled. "Oh, life is treating me good, apart some bad puns (she eyed Sera jokingly), but I could definitely bear a new hunt. It has been two days I haven't had some action," she added with a hungry smile.

    Thalia nodded in excitement as she listened Aria’s comments.

    “Oh, yes, you’re definitely true,” she answered back, smiling even bigger. It didn’t take her a long time to realize that like herself, Aria loved hunting. Since they liked the same thing, Thalia felt that talking to Aria was easier...and much, much more exciting.


    But then, as she looked closer at Aria, a chill went to her spine. Aria’s appearance...she almost looked like a twin to her. She hadn’t realize it before, and now as she finally recognize their similarities, they looked so obvious that Thalia mentally slapped her head. But that wasn’t the only thing that startled her. She just realized that Aria had what it takes to be a great hunter. Thalia looked at her left and her right. The number of hunters were growing real fast...and Thalia could use a help from an experienced and energetic helper....

    “Aria, can we talk privately?” Thalia asked, looking at Aria, trying to be as dignified and formal as possible.

    Aria looked a bit surprised, but nodded. She wondered what Aria might have to tell her that was so important they had to talk about it privately. Perhaps a new Hunt? Had Artemis sensed the trail of a new monster, and they would send a part of the Hunters off to track it down? Did she have to lead the next Hunt with the new recruits? It wouldn't be the first time she was entrusted with such a mission.

    "Of course," she replied and stood up in one liquid movement, her silvery aura shining faintly around her.

    She walked off next to Thalia, Nymeria, Aria's she-wolf, on her right. Aria passed her hand calmly in the wolf's soft fur.

    I watched intently her head shooting to each person speaking. Then, Thalia and Aria went somewhere to talk. My she-wolf was laying beside me and I was sitting with my back against a log at the fire. I watched the flames. I glanced over to where Aria and Thalia went to talk. My hair was braided and some hair strands for lose and were hanging in my eyes. My pale,blue eyes glimmered in the pale moon light.

    She pulled her legs up her chest and absorbed the warmth the fire let off. "How are you all?" I asked the people that were still here.

    ooc: That's sort of the same situation with the Roman centurions -- some are named and some aren't, but that doesn't mean a person with a canon with a position of power (ie: Percy as praetor (?) or such) should be handing out those roles to non-canons without asking an admin.
