Chaos

Ophelia found her clearing not to far away from the camp but far enough that she wouldn't be heard. She sat down and pulled her guitar into her lap. She strummed it a few times, checking the tune before she started to pluck at the strings. Very quietly, she started to sing to herself. There wasn't much to the guitar as she sang. As she got more comfortable and the song grew, she sang louder. She always felt at home with something to play, something to sing. She loved it, it always brought a smile to her face.

He could have climbed up there. But she knew that that was an advantage that she had and like you said she used it to her advantage. It would have been unfair if she stayed on the ground and went head to head with him. She knew it was probably best to avoid that. So she did.

Chaos

Ophelia laughed and placed her hands on her hips, "Of course it was. You guys don't know the forest like we do. Not to mention, we play... a lot."

When he told her where to look where she landed, not wanting her to break anything. She smirked, "No, I suppose we don't."

She turned away from the fleeting boy and started to put her gear away ignoring looks, if any, from her campmates. She then made her way back to her cabin. She only shared the cabin with a few other siblings and sighed when she walked in. She didn't want to go to bed yet. So, instead, she grabbed her guitar and left the cabin again. She slung it over her shoulder and snuck out of the cabin area, not wanting to tell Chiron that she'd be out after curfew.

Chaos

Ya sorry >.< I knew it kind of wasn't that's why I threw in that the romans weren't far off the border. Also, after the amount that the Romans have trampled the Greek, I think they deserved a win ;P

Chaos

Ophelia closed her eyes, expecting the impact to hurt... and hurt a lot. However, it didn't... She opened her eyes to find that she was in Seth's arms as he told her to be careful. She blushed a little, as not only was she curled up in his arms but everyone was watching. She brushed a few stray hairs out of her face and smirked, "I would have been fine if it weren't for Mr. Incredible Hulk," She looked at the guy and laughed a little, "And a rotten tree branch..."

She cleared her throat, "Excuse me," she wrapped her arms around his neck before lifting her legs up and out of his hold and released him. Once one her own two feet, she straightened clothes, "Umm... Thanks for catching me..."

Chaos

Ophelia glanced over her shoulder for a moment to see Seth still following behind her. She smirked though, as it seemed that he had little interest in getting into the trees. She kept hopping from tree to tree when noticed the net, she cursed. She stopped moving, not wanting to draw attention to herself. She spotted her own flag in the hand of a Roman not to far from the creek. Slowly, she drew an arrow from her quiver. Quickly, she untied flag from around belt loop and to the arrow. She set it up when she felt the tree shake. She gasped and gained her balance looking down to see a strong and burly boy, holding the tree trunk, "She's up here!" He yelled as he shook the tree again.

Ophelia quickly released the arrow. It shot through a gap in the Imperial Gold net and into a tree trunk on the other side of the border. One of the Greeks ran over and grabbed it waving it in the air. Hulk, however, was still shaking the tree. She quickly caught herself of a branch as she fell of the branch she stood on. Hulk stopped shaking the tree as it was useless now, they won, but the branch was rotten and gave out under her weight. She couldn't help but scream as she fell from the tree.

Chaos

Haha sorry!

Chaos

She had the flag tied around her belt loop. Him grabbing it not only would have ripped her out the tree but it also wouldn't have untied the flag. He'd have to do that manually.

Chaos

The guy looked at him and shook his head, "No... I think she has the flag... She tore off when I saw her but she was on top of it... There wasn't much other reason for her to run."

All the same, he turned to leave Seth to the task.

Ophelia gasped when the spear landed in front of her. She leaned back against the trunk of the tree and took the flag and tied it around her jeans' belt loop. She had almost lost it when she swung on the tree branch, she wasn't going to do that again. She looked through the tree branches at Seth, not know where she was, he couldn't see her. However, she could. She slowly removed her bow from over her shoulder. She took out an arrow and pulled back. Then she shot it at his knife, hoping the force of the unexpected arrow, would not it out of his hand. She ran again, to the next tree while he was slightly distracted.

Chaos

Ophelia heard the sound of battle, she had been running along with the Hephaestus kids, she assumed they met some resistance. She on the other hand, had not. She was running alone, meaning she didn't really draw attention to herself. She used softer ground below her to hide the sounds of her footfalls as she searched the forest.

That was when she stumbled upon a Roman. She didn't attack, in fact, she quickly ducked behind a tree and hid herself. The Roman was scanning the area, he was clearly on guard. Raising her hands into the air, she jumped and grabbed a branch before she pulled herself in. As an archer, she had gotten good at climbing trees, she could even tree run if she paid close enough attention to her feet. She took a deep breath and quickly and quietly hopped to another tree. She spotted the other guard, they were required to be ten feet from the flag at all times, which meant that she was in the centre. She scanned the area before slowly climbing down the tree. She spotted the flag and sprinted for it. One of the guards heard her and turned, "Hey!" he yelled.

Ophelia smiled, "Hi." Then she tore off through the forest. Ophelia was nimble and quick but the guy behind her was pure muscle. However, he also didn't know the forest. She ran over to the pile of rocks and ran at it. With ease, she jumped from rock to rock before she soared into the air. Her hands caught a tree branch and from there she was in the trees, running from branch to branch. The guard ran passed the fighting Mars kids and looked at Seth, "She's in the trees.... I think..."
