First Day Back at Camp Half-Blood

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

Whitney decided to suck it up. Although she was able to escape last year as soon as Summer ended, she pretty much knew she would be her for most of her life, so why not enjoy it? But suddenly the feeling of being in prison crept over her. Yes, that's what this place seemed to her a the moment. Prison. Whitney tried to shake the feeling off of her and return to her old cabin. Last year she had much enjoyed her time with Trinity, although she seemed to be a little closed off. Whitney now looked forward to seeing her this summer, being as they have been apart now for nearly a year. As soon as she walked in, Whitney knew she was in the right place. Herbal fragrences filled the room a rose petal lay lifeless on the floor, but her friend was nowhere to be found. Once she set her luggage down on her bunk, she took out a journal her dad had given her before she left and began writing.

Dragon wandered around the cabins, wondering what to do. She seemed to growl as she walked past the cabin that smelled like medicine. She never really liked it, so about half her life she walked around with wounds simply wrapped with a bandage and broken bones with a strong stick for a splint. Like now, for instance, she had a ripped white shirt wrapped around her leg, she walked with a slight limp for the moment.

OOC | Hey, shimmer shimmer. the cat and the fiddle...xD [/epic's moment of WTF]

BIC | A bright screen blared even in the daylight. The clacking of keys pressing down as her fingers tapped them was the only sound, other than the occasional shift of position and the chirping of birds. Camp was a bit quiet today. She sat solitude on a wooden bench, face just about buried in her laptop. Roleplaying. Mm, yes. One of her favorite pass-times. After a few minutes, the young demigod had her laptop in its case and was standing up, ready to retire to her cabin, at least for a little while. All threads were replied to and taken care of. She shuffled slowly to the place, somewhat dreading it. But, when she saw what she saw, it wasn't so depressing anymore. Trinity placed her laptop gently on the ground, completely oblivious to Dragon, who was eying their cabin with dislike, and went in for a hug."Long time no see, Whitney!"

Whitney stood there embracing her friend for a long time. After being apart for so long, she never wanted to let go. But sadly, she felt Trinity's akward stare and quicklylet go. "Oops, sorry," she murmured softly, a light rose color coming to her cheeks. "So, how've you been? by the way, sorry 'bout not returning the letters after a while. I just sort of got busy. Ugh, give me another hug!" Whitney gave one last hug, then showed a little more restraint afterwards. She couldn't help but smile around Trinity.

Dragon continued, limping along and suddenly tripped on a branch, falling forward, her leg wound reopening. She stood up carefully, and made her way to the nearest cabin, Cabin #28 ~ Panacea, Iaso, Hygieia, Aceso, and Aglaea, landing with a thunp on the wall. "Great," she muttered, examining the wound and taking off the blood soaked ripped shirt and putting in the dirt, "Never use that again."

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

"Hey Trinity, I think i heard something outside," said Whitney a little nervously. As she stepped through the dorr, she gasped. "Oh my gosh are you ok Dragon? Uh, Trinity, a little help here! Just stay put, I'll go get her!" Whitney said to the wounded Hermes camper. "Trinity!" She hollared as she turned to go back into the cabin.

[♫iSilk♫]

"I could use some bandages," Dragon replied, her teeth clenched together in pain, though she felt like saying, ' Im fine', she didn't. She did, however, add, "A shirt will be fine, I don't perticularly care the color." She slide down so she sat, and layed her leg out flat. The wound had opened wide, and even got worse; it extended along the outer side of most of her leg.

[.the epix of epics]

Trinity grinned and gladly received the second hug."It's okay about the letters...so long as you're here now." She backed off some, still in shock. What a pleasant surprise. But the thud on their cabin wall distracted her for a moment. Just as Whitney was asking for her help, Trinity was already rushing out of the building, a faded green scarf trailing behind her. Gods, it was one wound after another...first Miley, now Dragon."Whitney, do you think we still have any bandages?" The memory of stuffing a blanket on Miley's gash was still fresh in her mind. If there were no bandages...her scarf? Trinity looked at it, held it in her hands. Dammit, she loved this thing. She didn't want bloodstains all over it.

OOC | Happy Easter! We should do a site-wide activity for Easter or something. Maybe an OOC scavenger hunt thing, or IC we could do an egg hunt xD

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

"Oh, that's ok Trinity, I luckily brought some bandages with me, you remember how prepared I always was, anyways, could you get them out of my suitcase please? I'll stay here and comfort Dragon."

[♫iSilk♫]

"Thanks," Dragon smiled, putting her hands over the cut to try to stop, or at least slow, the bleeding.

OOC: That would be fun!

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

"Oh, no! Don't put your hand there! You could get it infected, considering you're just laying on the dirt here. Oh, duh! Here, I'll help support your weight and help you inside. Take my hand." Wow, she hadn't even been at camp a full hour and there was already a lot of action!

[♫iSilk♫]

Dragon silently moaned. She hated the scent, but complied." She took Whitney's hand and stood up with her help, leaning on the wall as well. "They didn't really touch the ground, though," she replied.

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

"If we can just get you to hobble over to that empty bed inside, we could have Trinity bandage you up and you'll be good as new. Except for the fact that you might need to stay off that leg for a day or so. Just to be sure it will heal correctly." Whitney helped her patient over to an unoccupied bed and set her down. "There, just lay still for a minute until Trinity can help you with the bandages, K?" she said in an angelic ton. For some reason when she was around kids who were sick or injured, she became someone else. Her tone softened, she was lighter on her feet than normal, and all other thoughts escape from her mind. In a wierd way, Whitney enjoyed when this happened, and longed for this feeling to permanently stay, but when she had things under control, it would vanish. "Uh Trin, do you have those bandages yet? Dragons starting to bleed all over the sheets, which won't be very comfortable after a while."

[.the epix of epics]

Trinity couldn't take her eyes off of Dragon for a while, but finally nodded to Whitney with a grateful smile. She swiftly unbuckled the suitcase locks and sifted through the contents, finally discovering a roll of bandages. The red-head stood up and walked over to their patient, who was now bleeding on one of the cabin beds. She almost sighed out loud, but refrained. The daughter of Aceso wrapped the bandage around her upper leg and then continued on down to her knee and calf. What a long cut...When she'd finished, she laid the half-used bandage roll onto the bloodied bed, and stood up to examine her work. Looked good enough."I think that should take care of the bleeding. We should've put disinfectant on it first, or maybe cleaned it out...but I guess it's too late now."

OOC | We should've done that xD Easter's gone noaw! D:

[♫iSilk♫]

"I can do that," Dragon replied, thanking them and placing her hand on her now bandaged leg. She probably wouldn't disinfect it, but she would clean it out. She just hoped that the two girls didn't know her well enough to tell that she would put any medicine on it.

OOC: Darn! XD Where's Thaila?

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

"Uh, how do you plan to clean it out? Maybe you should let us take care of it, unless, you know an efficient way to clean it out that won't infect your wound. By the way, that looks pretty big. Not that it's any of my business, but how did you get such a large gash?"

OOC: Yeah, an Easter thing would've been fun. Maybe the next holiday, whatever it is, we can all do something special, like, out of the ordinary special!

[♫iSilk♫]

"It wasn't that big," Dragon replied, "Untill I tripped and reopened it again...." She let her voice trail off. "And I'll probably wash it with some water and cloths," she added, "I'll be sure to get allt he dirt and such out."

OOC: Sounds fun, I'll suggest it in the Staff Corner

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

"Oh, well how did you get it in the first place, like originally? Were you in some sort of fight" Whitney questioned further. She didn't mean to be so nosey, but she just wanted to know what happened to her patients.

[♫iSilk♫]

"I was training in the forest," Dragon explained, "I fell in the river and cut it on some sharp rocks."

[*S*H*I*M*M*E*R*I*N*G*]

"Oh, ouch. Well, don't worry. You're all fixed now, you just need to stay off of it and it'll be fine. Maybe don't do any heavily battling until we say so, ok?" Whitney said in her sweet tone. "When do you think she'd be able to get back to her normal routine Trinity?"
