"Are you sure you want to get off here?" the taxi draver asked, "There isn't anything here."
"Yes," Pine replied, "Thank you." She handed him some mortal money and stepped out of the taxi, limping over to allow room for Alex and Alexa to get out.

Alex And Alexa stepped out and looked around then turned to Pine. "Yeah that cab driver was right, there's nothing here exept that tree on the hill" Alex said walking a little ways up the hill before stopping."Well Pine where to?" Alexa stepped next her brother eyes asking the same question.

"This way," Pine told them, then paused, her jeans were getting sort of uncomfortable, "Actually, would you hold on for a moment?" She glanced around and saw the forest close by. "I'll be right back." She limped off towards the trees to take her jeans off. She may be a saytr, but she was still a girl.

Alex and Alexa just shrugged and sat down on the grass. "So what do you think of the "camp" so far Alexa?" Alex said smirking. Alexa smiled in reply "Oh it's wonderful Alex." They both laughed, it felt good to do so finally.

Pine emerged moment's later. She left her pants in the forest because she didn't want to carry them and trotted over to the twins. "Ok, this way," she called, heading up the hill.

Alex and Alexa both looked at Pine. She had taken off her pants revealing her goat legs. But for the twins they didn't really mind, they had recently just seen a professor turn into something. They got up with the packs and set off after Pine.

"Hurry up," Pine called behind her, she was standing on the top of the hill, no longer limping. She gazed out infront of her. The camp, from here, because of the Mist, would look like a strawberry farm to them.

Alex looked up. "Hey were not part goat you know" he and his twin hurried up until they were level with Pine."Why are we at a strawberry farm?" asked Alexa she took a step forward curious as always.

"What do you mean 'you were not part goat?" she asked, turning to him and tilting her head, "We are at Camp Half-Blood; let's go." She started slowly down, so the twins could keep up with her and so she could hear them.

"Doesn't look much like a camp to me" Alex said following Pine down the slope, Alexa trialing right behind Alex. They didn't know what to expect so they kept close to Pine.

Pine kept on, and soon they were at the Big House. If they looked now, it would probably look like what it is: a four story building. Close by were the tables where the camper's ate; walless and roofless.

OOC:: Mind if I join in w/ Falke? If not I can just delete this post.
--x--
"Pine, back so soon you little hairy goat?" Came the a welcoming call from a man sitting in a chair astride the Big House, seemingly as if he'd been just waiting there anyway. Hurriedly shoving himself up from his chair, and tottering down the steps to go forward and greet the Satyr at the half-way point. But was stopped short, his walking stick grinding into the dirt, as a thoughtful air and mused expression lighted up his face. A deep, ragged breath was taken in, nostrils flaring slightly, as if scenting them out, which he was. "With new Demigods too by the smell of it. Er-... Welcome `dears..." Falke spoke, raising his hand to vaguely wave a greeting to them before continueing onward. "I hope nothing bothered you to much on the way here, /seeing/ that you all seem to be in one piece."[/size][/font][/center]

The twins blinked as soon as the camp really came into view. The looked around their eyes glancing off of everything."This place...is awesome!" Alex said looking around still. Alexa however was looking around but for a different reason."I want to know where we'll be staying, i don't feel like sleeping outside." then both twins looked forward to the newcomer who had seemed to smell them. "Hello" The twins said together.

"Twins? My, my... Lovely how the gods seem to shine upon certain individuals; I wonder which lucky God or Goddess has given birth to you both." The boy mused, glancing skyward with a thoughtful sigh echoing from his grizzled maw. "Honor to meet you both. Falke Jeremias der Herrscher, son of Janus, at your service."

The twins both smiled before replying. Alex spoke up first. "I'm Alexander Arnold, but you can call me Alex" Then Alexa Spoke up. "And I'm Alexandra Arnold, You can call me Alexa" They both laughed before quieting down."Nice to meet you" Alex said nodding.

"Yes," Pine replied, greeting Falke, then turned to the twins, "We don't now who your father is yet, so you'll be staying in the Hermes Cabin. It's this way, if you wish to see it."

"I guess i would like to see it" Alexa said, her brother looking off towards the direction of the arena, he of course didn't know what it was."Hey whats that big thing over there for?" he called walking over to where the others were.

"Alex and Alexa, both lovely names. Greetings, greetings." The boy murmured softly in the direction of the two twins. Barely was he there, obvious hidden in depths of his own mind, chewing over something perhaps a second time `round. His attention only returned to the others when Pine spoke again, a dulled snort ringed from his nose at the mere word of 'Hermes', a frown darkening up his facial expression. "The god of thieves... Rutty good ones he produces with his kids. So, I ought to warn you before even heading toward that Cabin, always remember to keep your dearest possessions close at hand, otherwise they may just go poof." Finishing, he raised a hand to rub his temple. "Though that would mean getting past all the lovely Ares children. Even if they can't smell out your fresh blood, soon enough you'll be spotted... Shall be fun with just two good eyes between thee and Pine. You don't mind be tagging along do you?" Rambling onward, he'd finally stopped, realizing what he'd just mentioned to the lovely people about his utter lack of sight. Ahh well, they would have found out sooner or later anyway. Turning to the other boy, Alex was it not, his voice slightly distant before coming to join the group of them, mentioning the big 'thing' over yonder. "I believe your pointing toward the Arena. Where we do all our battle training to prepare for quests and the like.... I believe Chiron is over there now. Perhaps after you two get a bunk secured in the Hermes cabin, you could go over there."

"That would be a wonderful idea," Pine smiled, "And you can come with us if you'd like." She started towards the cabin area, setting her hoofs down a little harder for Falke.

The purposefully harder hitting of hooves on the well-beaten road, caused a grateful smile to light up his facial features, with a short thankful grunt in following. The ragged staff that had stayed near the boys side swung ahead, prodding the ground tentatively, before the boy's body followed in a slow, ambling gait.

The twins obviously had no idea where to go so they stayed behind Pine, behind them came the steps of Falke. They peered around the camp as they headed towards the cabins, taking in all the sites for the moment.

Pine wandered through the rows of cabins, ending up at the Hermes Cabin. "Here we are," she called behind her, glancing back at the twins and Falke, "I can show you in and find you a bunk or two, if you'd like. You might have to share one because all of the campers that arn't determinded go here."

The twins both shrugged. "We can share a bunk for now, I don't mind." Alexa said moving to the entrance of the cabin and stepping inside. Alex followed as well rolling his eyes. It seemed that Alexa made all the decisions. In a few moments they had set their packs down on their respective bunk and had came back out. Alex in his shorts and tank top with no shoes and Alexa in her shorts long sleeved shirt and Sandals. "Well i think we should get a tour am i right?" Alex said smiling

Pine nodded. "Yes, you will get a tour," she began, but glanced over at their bags, "But, as Falke stated eariler, Hermes is the god of theives, and his children make wonderful ones."

A small grunt left the boy's throat, whom had been quite quiet before hand, content at looking toward the sky with a thoughtful expression on his face, returned to watching the group intently. "You can drop your bags at my cabin for now if you want too keep any of your personal possessions safe from them. But only if you want too. A two-faced man is all that my father is, two heads stuck to one another from the sides, doesn't have very good forward or backward vision I'd say. Though being the son of the god of doorways does come with the many good things; One being even if Hermes deiced to come into are cabin to steal something from one of us, it would definitely twist him in a bind." Falke finished, looking quite proud of himself. He turned away slightly, glancing in the vague direction of his cabin.

Alex raised an eye brow before replying smoothly." Well if all they want is some clothes then that's fine with me. The only possession that i actually like is my lucky arrow head." he said holding it up from his neck. Alexa looked at her bag and shrugged."nothing of much value, we have some old clothes to be honest" she murmured looking down at her own clothes and let out a little laugh. "Now then on with that tour! oh and thanks for the offer Falke, but yeah we got nothing of value." Alexa shrugged moving to stand beside her brother.

Falen walked near the new campers she had heard about and said " Hello! I heard your new here my names Falen Ridgeway, daughter of Athena. But call me Falen." she messed with her long black hair and pulled it out of her face and said "hey Pine how are you? I wonder about Jay she works in the schools to but she's a demigod, a daughter of Poseidon. Have you seen her there?" she looked at the new campers it was aparent that they were twins.

"Hello, Falen," Pine greeted the daughter of Athena, "I'm fine; you? I haven't seen her..." She answered all of the demigods questions as they were given, and she thought about Jay. She must not've been around. "Ready to start the tour, Alex, Alexa?" she asked then, turning, "You can come along if you'd like, Falen, but I'll let them introduce themselves."

Falen smiled and shrugged her shoulders and said "Sure why not!". She lookeed Alex and Alexa they looked cool. Wonder who there parents are she thought. She started walking.

Alex looked at his sister before walking up beside the other new comer." Umm hi, the names Alex, thats my sister Alexa" he said smiling a bright smile. he looked back towards his sister and waved for her to walk up. She moved so that she was on the other side of Falen."Hello, I'm the smarter of us two" She said giggling lightly while alex just rolled his eyes.
