Ophelia spotted Seth leaving and quickly hopped to her feet. She dumped what was left on her plate into the fire, deciding give it as tribute to Mars and Apollo. She wasn't really sure if it would go to Mars or Ares but she didn't care. The two of them blessed her and let her get to and save Seth, that couldn't go unnoticed. If it did, they'd probably smite her. She ran after Seth and caught him at the beach, "Seth..... We.... You should..... um.... talk to m-.... someone... about what happened," If there was every a worse time for her to get tongue tied! She sighed, "It isn't.... you know... healthy and stuff... to keep it bottled up.... and... stuff."

She finally bit her tongue, the eloquent Ophelia had clearly left the building.

Seth glanced over his shoulder at Ophelia, but he didn't move from his current position. He sighed, "alright I guess," he took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "My mom was a museum worker she worked with all the battle stuff and talked about war in different opinions that's how she caught my dad's attention. Once I was born, and he left by the age of 8 I was being beaten by my mother when she was drunk, she would hit me with anything that was in reach. Some nights she had her friends over and they would take turns beating me. One day she had gotten a knife that was in reach and had almost killed me with it, if I had not ran away that's when I met Lupa that's when my training began." Tears were now flowing freely down his face and his voice cracked with every word he had said.

Ophelia's eyes widened, she hadn't expected him to tell her about his mother. She had expected him to talk about what happened at Camp Jupiter and she kind of expected him to say it to anyone but her. She walked over to him as she heard his voice crack. Tentatively, she took his hand in hers, "Hey... It's okay... That over now...." She bit her lip, she couldn't exactly sympathize, her time with her mother had been great. She looked at him, "I haven't seen my mother since she left me here.... I forget about her sometimes... What colour her eyes are... How her voice sounds... How she smelt..." She shrugged, "But... I haven't.... really missed her...."

Seth shrugged, wiping the tears from his face. His gaze never leaving the sea, "I know it's over it's going to take years to rebuild what we Romans lost at camp Jupiter. Camp Jupiter was awesome once you past Lupa's tests that you were strong enough."

Ophelia nodded and squeezed his hand slightly, "I think you guys will do fine... I'm sure that you guys are all welcome here while you rebuild Camp Jupiter..."

She looked down at their hands and slowly released his, "You Romans haven't given me a reason to doubt you yet."

She looked out the ocean as well, "Lupa is the Wolf Goddess that trains you.... right?" She shook her head a little at the thought, "That's... Different. If you can make it to Camp Half Blood alive... You are free to join our rag tag team."

Seth smiled a little, "she is the one that makes sure you are strong enough to join the Romans ranks or ou won't last long if you don't." He took a breath, "I don't know if we can stay here with you guys not with how I've seen a few Greeks give us a look of disgust I don't really care though it's mostly ares kids though."

Ophelia shrugged, "Kick their ass."

She wrapped her arms around herself and pulled her sweater around her tighter, "And... With Camp Jupiter as is... There isn't another place that any you of are safe. I'm sure families want to stay together... but that many demi gods together, always draws attention. You won't be wanted by everyone, just as I'm sure not all of you will want to be here....Greeks and Romans... Can be together right?"

Seth shrugged, "it depends really on what had happened to them or what they heard about the Greeks which wasn't much. That's why we keep to ourselves most of the time or just want to be accepted by the Greeks. I don't really care what the Greeks think about me or say about me I've dealt with it my whole life."

Ophelia gave him a small smile, "Well, you are accepted... by some of us at least," She took a step back, "Hey... if you need to talk more about anything.... Come find me. I trust you know where to."

She turned away from him and started to head toward the campfire.

Seth looked over his shoulder, watching Ophelia leave. He slowly got to his feet, heading back towards the roman camp. He sat down in front of one of the fires that were in the camp, soon though he had his bass in his hands he was playing on it.

Ophelia stopped walked when she heard the sound of Seth's bass. She smiled and changed her course back to him. She sat down across from him and closed her eyes, just listening to the sound of his bass.

Seth looked up from the cords on his bass to see Ophelia in front of him, he quickly changed the rhythm to the old victory song his fingers flying over the cords easily. He had been playing the bass for a few years since he had gotten to camp Jupiter. He kept track of the other Romans that were singing in english to the old song he decided to join in a little bit, "and today we bring victory victory we haven't failed. No matter how hard it gets we bring victory," he kept playing through the song.

Ophelia opened one eyes when she heard the tune change and laughed a little when she heard Seth sing. She looked around at the Romans who were also singing, she hadn't taken notice to them before. She spotted Jeremy and smiled, waving to him.

Jeremy nodded in her direction his arms crossed still, Seth soon finished the song, Jeremy sat down by his friend. "It's been a long time since I've heard you play that one. I wonder can you play the bass of crazy train?" Seth frowned for a moment then looked down at his fingers adjusted them to the right cords then started playing crazy train on the bass.

Ophelia laughed as Seth started to play the opening chords to crazy train. When he reached the first verse, she started to sing, "Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay."

She hopped to her feet as someone started to play the guitar, giving the song a bit more life. She danced a little to the music, clearly enjoying it, "Crazy, but that's how it goes."

She started moving around the fire, helping Romans who weren't playing along to dance, while she continue to sing. She made it to Seth and Jeremy to crouch between them, singing, "Mental wounds not healing, Life's a bitter shame, I'm going off the rails on a crazy train," She stood back up as she repeated and continued dancing around, enjoying the impromptu dance party.

Seth looked at her, he shook his head. "I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train," he kept playing through the song. He looked at Jeremy as he started dancing Seth laughed. "Mental wounds still screaming," he looked at Henry who was playing the guitar solo and got all of the cords right. Seth's eyes widened, "mental wounds not healing who am to blame I'm going off the rails on crazy train." They did the last few cords of the song till it ended.

Ophelia laughed a little again when she heard Seth sing. Jeremy stood to dance. Ophelia took his hands and started to dance with him, singing all the while. She was a little taken back when the guitar player played through the guitar solo perfectly. She decided to make a note and ask if he was a kid of Apollo. As the song came to an end, she sang the last of the words, "Mental wounds not healing, Who and what's to blame, I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train, I'm goin' off the rails on a crazy train!"

She giggled as the last chord was played and sat down next to Jacob, still giggling, "That was fun!"

Seth set down his bass by him, he smiled. "Glad you liked it," he looked at the other Romans. They were looking at each other, wondering what to do. Seth only shook his head, he took a breath then he picked up his bass. He looked at the cords, he played through the cords of the song he only written when he was a kid. When he had ran away and found the bass eventually it became his favorite thing. He had written this song when he was camping one night and he hadn't known Lupa was watching him that night a lot of the Romans knew the cords well because he had played through this a couple of times at camp.

Ophelia smiled at Seth. Everyone was a little quite, not know what to do now that the song had ended along with their dance party. Seth picked up his bass again and started to play a song that she didn't recognize. Which was strange for her, she normally only ever needed to hear a song once to remember it. This, though, left her at a complete loss.

She closed her eyes as he played, just listening to the song.

The Romans had there heads down, they knew who this song had been written for. They knew Seth had wrote down the cords for the base, it had been his last chance at keeping his hope up and it did the job. The guy that they were looking at only found his way out of the reality of things through the bass or he wouldn't be here now leading ten while tey waited on the rest of the Romans.
