Entry 3: A little girl named Candy

She had been sleeping in the Athena cabin when it had happened. She had heard strange thumping noises coming from outside, so she had decided to investigate. By the time she had gotten outside, however, the noises had stopped and there was no one in the clearing where the cabins were located. She began to look around the camp, trying to find the source of the noise. Finally, she checked the dining pavilion. A little girl was standing in the center of the pavilion, munching on some chicken. She turned around and saw Willow. She let out a small yelp, and took off like a shot.  Willow began to chase after her, which was extremely difficult, because the girl was faster than a startled rabbit. Finally, she caught up to the girl, and she grabbed her arm. The girl fought to free herself, but Willow wouldn't let go. The girl looked to be about 10. "Tell me your name." she said kindly, trying not to frighten the little girl.
    "My name is Candy. Candy Dean."the girl said, looking frightened.
" I ran away from home a few moths ago, because my family hated me for being a....a..... demigod. That's it. yeah. A demigod. There's a place I've heard of , called Camp Olympus, that's supposed to be a place for demigods. Do you know where it is?"Candy said.
"Candy, you're already at Camp Olympus." she said kindly.
The little girl smiled and said: "I am? I didn't know that. She paused for a minute, then said,  Can I stay here?"
Willow laughed and said:  "Of course! But, I need to ask you. Do you know who your godly parent is?
Candy paused, then said: "No."
Willow frowned, then said "OK. Let me show you your cabin."
 She'll have to be put in the Hermes cabin. She thought as they walked together towards the cabins. And with that, they walked of together, underneath the stars.
