Munching on a saltine cracker, Kendall sat on a bench near the Artemis cabin, gazing off at nothing in particular in the distance. News had spread through the Ares cabin of the immortal girls' return, and the subsequent rumors of a Capture the Flag game in the making against them. Camp had lost many, many times; the Hunters were infinitely more organized and in-sync with each other than any cabin in camp could claim, except maybe the smaller cabins or the war-like Ares cabin.
But this daughter of Ares didn't think for a minute that the Hunters of Artemis had returned for mere fun. It was probably the looming threat of the Romans, or the Giant War, that brought them back from their wanderings to this place, uninteresting though it was to them.
Kendall chuckled to herself, wiping cracker crumbs off her shorts and onto the ground, where her boar Mars lay by her feet. "What do you think, lil buddy? Are the Hunters here for fun?"
The only response she got was a snort, and a bit of shuffling from the little thing. Poor thing was probably asleep; his owner's half-siblings had made such a ruckus that night straight into the morning in their excitement for the rumored CTF game, even though Chiron had said nothing of the sort was being scheduled for the camp. And why would he, anyway? They needed to prepare for war, not games.
