She was about to snap back at him, but the look in his eyes stopped her. "Yeah, yeah, I got it." She said. "Can't a girl have a little fun once in a while?" She muttered before looking back towards the Hermes cabin. "Come on Ares!" She called, and with one last look at Cory, disappeared off towards her cabin.

Cory watched her go then said through gritted teeth, "Anabelle, get me out of here...and hurry." His whole body was stiff as a light glow started to emanate from him.

Nicole nodded at Anabelle, then smiled at Cory for getting the reference. She watched as they went to handle the situation, not really wanting to be a part of it. Once it seemed that it was resolved, she headed back to her cabin, glancing back to see Cory light emanating from him. I hope he'll be okay. A lot of weird stuff has been going on around camp lately...
Akito quickly back away from Jack's swing and glared back at him when he was threatened. He glanced over at Kara, to make sure Liam wasn't going to hurt her, and went back to his bunk. He slid the sword under the mattress, pulled the sheet over to cover the front, and went back to sleep. Definitely not doing that again.
((I think I might of missed/forgotten the posts about it, but what's wrong with Cory?))

She glanced at him and nodded. "See ya Nicole." She grabbed Cory's arm and dragged him off towards the woods. Once they had gotten past the first line of trees, she asked, "You okay?"

(It's hard to explain but Cory went to Greece to find out about himself. His father is actually Uranus (the first lord or the world, and known as the sky) so he is part god part extremely powerful being. Uranus gave him something that gave him the ability to access the powers given to him by Uranus through blood. However this made it so Uranus faded and his energy was kinda abosorbed by the closest living thing: Cory. So Cory has the powers of a demigod and Uranus. He has to take special medicine to keep his body and soul intact because the energy is so strong. And when he gets worked up, his powers and emotions get out of control, much like Aang in the Avatar state.)
Cory gasped as Anabelle led him toward the woods. The glowing became more noticeable the farther away he got and he let Anabelle hear his thoughts, since he was unable to speak, "Destract me, get me to calm down. Do something or talk to me about something otherwise you might just want to get out of here before I can't control me anymore."

She smiled. "That I can do." She kissed him softly and wrapped her arms around him. "Remember the Northern Lights?" She murmured, to get his mind onto another subject.

The glowing started to fade, but it still seemed like Cory was struggling to move his own arms. His dark eyes started to return to normal and after a moment he managed to wrap his arms around her waist. His body was aching, but he wouldn't let her see that, she didn't need more to worry about. Getting his mind stable was all that mattered. He blinked, telling her to keep going; he still wasn't fully there.

Anabelle continued talking, not stopping for even a moment. She talked about everything from the capture the flag game, to the time everyone had gone swimming down at the beach, to the camp prom a few months back. She watched Cory closely for any signs that he was calmed down and okay.

The glow around the son of Nyx subsided and he wobbled slightly before falling to his knees and letting out a gasp, "I-I hate when that happens." He hated people seeing him so weak and uncontrolled. He looked up at Anabelle, "C-can y-you stay with me? Please?" His eyes were so sad and weak as he leaned back against a tree.

She gave a smile. "I wouldn't leave for the world." She slipped an arm around him to steady him.

Cory smiled and rested his head on her's. His dark eyes searched through the shadows. out of habit, for any danger. After all, he only felt safe in one place in the entire world. He smiled at the memories of his home: The Library of Nyx. He hadn't been there in almost a year, but his mind hadn't traveled to the thought of it in about the same amount of time. He shifted ever so slightly so he could look at Anabelle, "H-how long has it been? Since we've been in the camp, training, teaching, and being normal demigods. How long?"

Anabelle was still a little concerned for him and her eyes didn't leave his face. She looked slightly surprised by his question and thought a moment. "Several months maybe?" She guessed. "I'm not exactly sure. Why?" She hid the worry from appearing in her eyes as she looked at him.

Cory just shook his head, "You know, and I know...that I really don't belong here. Children of the Underworld...don't belong here. I may be liked and respected by other campers, but that's only because of what I've done with campers like you and River...if I were just a normal child of Nyx, would it be the same? Would I even be here? Would we...be together if I wasn't so powerful?"
He couldn't stop a small tear from falling and he said, "I've always questioned why I'm really here, and not off doing what I did before I met all you guys. My friends. I just...I wish I was just a normal demigod. Not given the title "Child of the Underworld'. I don't want the power I have. I just want to be...me." His eyes were closed as he let his thoughts flow from his mind to his mouth and then he said, "It's been so long, since I've been to the Library of Nyx...."

Anabelle looked at him for a moment. "Of course we would be. I met you before all of this happened, remember? Back in the library? Your powers have nothing to do with us. I love you because you're you, not because you're powerful. I'd love you even if you weren't a demigod." She replied softly with her hand gently on his shoulder.
"You're here because you have a reason to stay." She said firmly."Before, you didn't. Now, you have everyone else and...me." She paused for a moment. "Maybe you should go back then, at least for a little while."

Cory gave a small nod, his eyes still closed. He thought for a long time before saying, "Come with me. We both need time away from camp. Though...it might get crazy without you here to control the fights." He chuckled quietly and continued, "Maybe you shouldn't come then. Unless I can get Percy or Annabeth to come back for a bit, you should probably stay. Just forget I asked. It was a stupid question." He sighed and placed his hand on her's, waiting quietly and patiently for her reply.
While he waited, he remembered everything about the Library. Every detail, every memory. The library itself, his living wing, the closet. The closet. He thought to himself. That's one thing he wasn't looking forward to about his visiting.
