Jonas adjusted his backpack straps, and tucked his drumstick in his back pocket. He wore somewhat quest-like clothes, and was ready for anything.
Thomas was walking around camp, making sure everyone was ready.
Tony leaned against a tree, his newsboy hat pulled over his eyes. He didn't want anyone to recognize him.

River pulled on a pair of jeans, a white shirt and his blue hoodie/armor from the gods. He put his arm guards on and and covered them with the sleeves. He then put on his rings, and his lips formed a small frown as he did so. He then pulled out the bracelets from Poseidon and slipped them on. He put on his Vans and slipped his cell-phone in his pocket. He shoved his laptop in his bag and then slung his backpack over his shoulder and picked up his duffle bag. He smiled, very small at the now empty building that only a few hours before was the sacred temple of Odin. He walked outside and took in the European landscape, and the other campers bustling about making sure everything was where it should be. He'd made friends, despite being an outsider, and when he left them, he would miss them. The son of Poseidon sighed. It had been at least a day since he'd seen Kyle and he wondered where he'd gone off to. Well, I shouldn't worry about it. Kyle can keep himself hidden from everyone in this mess. Better go find Jonas, Tony, Vivi, and the other Council members before we shove off. He walked down the hill and to the fire pit where he'd establish they'd meet the night before. He sat down in one of the Council member's chairs so he could look over the camp. Most of the campers were all packed and were making their way to the docks where the cruise ship would be waiting. "Feeling comfortable, deserteur?" River turned around, sword in hand before he blinked and saw it was Xan. River grumbled to himself before sitting up straight and taunting Xan, "Quite, thank you Norse Boy." Xan clenched his jaw and said, "If you are going to be at this camp, respect it's rules. Get the hell out of my seat. You are hardly a camper and you are certainly not Norse. Only true leaders like myself, Ethan, Nick, and," he paused and swallowed his curse down, "the nominated Vivi, can sit in the High Council Chairs. Punishment will be your reward if you do not listen to this camp's leaders." River shrugged like it didn't matter to him and hopped down, eyeing the younger kid, his sword very close to Xan's cheek bone, "You know Norse Boy, it isn't wise to threaten a Greek. We have the best sword combat skills. So good that the Romans followed in our footsteps. Or at least tried to." Xan swallowed as River drew his sword away form his face and he managed to swallow down some bile that was rising. River smirked, knowing that Xan knew his place when it came to River. The Son of Poseidon raised his hand in a greeting when Nick walked in with Shawna. Nick gave Shawna a kiss on the cheek and she left to the docks. River grabbed the boy's arm in greeting. Nick nodded slowly to Xan and took his seat on the end of the High Council Seats. River gave a small sigh and looked up, waiting to see someone not from the Council come over. Xan watched Shawna as she left and glared at Nick. That should have been him.

Vivi had awoken early, knowing there would be a bit to do before they could leave. She dressed quickly in a pair of denim jeans, tennis shoes, and a t-shirt. She pulled on her jacket from where she had left it at the end of the bed. She slipped a few basic pieces of her armor and stuck the rest into her dark purple duffel bag. She retrieved the few belongings she had and stowed them in the bag as well. She fasted her weapons on her securely and then grabbing her bag, strode out of the cabin and made a quick check around camp to make sure everything was in order before heading to the fire pit.
She helped out a couple campers before she walked over to the High Council chairs, overhearing Xan's and River's conversation. "Don't think I can't guess what you were about to say Xan. If you think I'm less competent than the rest of you, you've got another thing coming." She said shortly, dropping her bag on the ground. "Morning River. Anyone seen Kyle?"

Jonas boarded the ship and took his place at the highest point. He pushed his bag to the side, and rested his head on his knees, gazing at the demigods below.
Ethan came up behind Xan after he was finished talking to River. "Have some honor, Xan. No need to pick fights with guests. If you had your head screwed on straight, you would worry about more important things than Greeks."
Tony boarded the ship behind a large group. He kept his head down, and his hands in his pockets. Bumping into someone, he muttered an apology, and scampered off. Once he found River, he stayed rather close. He was the only person he trusted. "What's up Geeky Greeky?" He pulled his hat down more, and lowered his gaze.

Xan just muttered a few words and gave a nod to Ethan, "Whatever you say. I don't like Greeks, and I don't like Americans. But you're right. Ever since Ricky died I've been...off."
River smirked as Tony came up to him, "Hey Tony. You all packed up and ready to ship off?"
Nick glanced at Ethan and Xan and suggested quietly, "Maybe you need time off the Council. All it does in increase stress for you, it's not going to make your condition any better. We can always find a temporary sub for you."

Ethan nodded. "I have to agree with that. Being a council member can be stressful."
Tony nodded. "Yep, all packed." He fiddled with the straps on his backpack, his fingers moving a mile and minute.

Vivi glanced around, but still not seeing Kyle, she shrugged, assuming he was already on the ship or would be here soon. "Let's move out." She said, picking up her bag. She glanced down at the campers still messing with their stuff. "Let's go! Get your stuff and get to the ship!" She shouted, sending a few kids scrambling.
She paused and looked over the camp, remembering all the memories that had happened here. She wasn't one to get sentimental, but she had grown up here. With one last look, she headed towards the ship, glancing at the others to see if they were following.

Xan's mouth dropped open but it was too late to disagree, Ethan had already agreed with Nick. He frowned then stood and gave a nod, "The least I can do is find a sub for myself. When we get on the ship and head out to sea, I will let you guys know who it is." He walked to the ship and after he past Vivi he turned back and gave her a scowl then turned back around and jogged to the ship. It was one of the moments that made you wonder if Xan and Kyle were actually brothers.
River watched Xan go and stood walking over to Vivi, dragging Tony along with him, and said, "Don't worry about him, he's not going to be a problem anymore now that he isn't on the Council. Hey, have either of you seen Kyle around the past few days? I've been needing to talk to him about some stuff for when we get to camp." He had turned to Tony too, directing the question at both of them.
Nick sighed and turned to Ethan, "What are we going to do with him? As long as he has people against him, and people that aren't Norse in the camp, like River, he's going to be like that."

Vivi ignored his scowl and glanced over at River. "Oh, I'm not. He's nothing I can't handle. No, I haven't. I've been wondering where he's gotten to."

(They still don't know about Kyle, right? Camp wise)
Tony shrugged. "He couldn't have gotten far."
Ethan sighed. "He's gonna have to learn to get over it. If he wants to be a good leader, he's going to have to set his differences aside."

(Correct)
River just shrugged and gave a smile to Vivi before saying, "Come on. That boat needs a captain and a captain needs a crew. We should get this show on the road right? We can't wait to see if Kyle's gotten on, we just have to assume he has."
Nick gave a nod and stretched, "We should make sure everything is ready for the ship to depart. I'll see you up there." He jumped down from the chair and headed towards the ship.
Kyle was off in the woods, cursing repeatedly and gripping his side as he ran as fast as he could to the ship. He stopped for a moment by Vivi's cabin to see if she was still there and he muttered, "Crap, crap, crap..." He pulled his hand away from his side, it was covered in his own blood. He ran into Vivi's cabin and grabbed a sheet from her bed and ripped it. He tore of his bloody and dirty shirt and wrapped the ripped part around his stomach and sides to cover the wound and then glanced around. He managed to calm himself down and straighten up a bit, his side burning like a thousand flames.
The son of Odin threw the shirt in the trash and looked around for anything he could use to cover his upper body. He swore when he saw nothing and then sighed. He sat down on the bed and put his head in his hands and gave a small grunt whenever he breathed out, his side painful to even move. He stood back up and went to jog out of the cabin only to stop, spotting one of his old hoodies from when he wasn't proclaimed dead. It must've been moved from Vivi's old stuff into here. He grabbed it and pulled his arms threw the sleeves, wincing when having to stretch out his arm. He zipped it up and gave a small frown, now no one could see he was injured. Better that way. He walked out of the cabin and shut the door behind him. He made his way to the Fire Pit, hoping he hadn't missed the boat already.

Vivi nodded but hesitated. "Still, If I hurry, I have time to jog around camp just to make sure. I won't miss the boat." She said, and ran off before he could stop her. She couldn't leave without checking one last time.
As she neared the Fire Pit, she spotted him and waved him over. "Kyle! Hurry up, the boat's about to leave! You okay?" She asked, not sure if something was off about him or not.

River was about to yell at her to stop then sighed. He would've done the same thing if he were in that situation. He turned to Tony, "Come on, lets get up to the controls. I'll need some help making sure everything is all ready to leave."
Kyle slowed down when he neared Vivi and gave a weak smile, "Well hello to you too! Yeah, you could say I've been worse...but -erm- I'm fine. I just had some business to attend to before we left and it took me a lot longer then I had hoped it would. Sorry for not being around the last few days." He gave her a small kiss on the cheek then wrapped his good arm around her, making sure that she couldn't take a close look at his other side. He started to the boat and said, "This is a huge moment for the camp, and I wan't everything to go really well. We are the last camp to move to America. this will never happen again to another camp of demigods."

Vivi gave him a smile back. "It's ok, I've been busy anyway too." She still wasn't completly convinced everything was fine but she let the matter slid...for the moment. "Yeah, it is." She agreed. "But definitly the right one."

Tony nodded and followed right behind him.
(...well that sucked. I hate fillers)
