I'm {Already} .T.H.E.R.E.

[Serenity]

Serenity was walking around the camp thinking, when she spoted a group of people she had never met before. She joged over, her sea blue hair bouncing in each step.She was panting when she reatched them. "Are.are you.." she spotted the girl and he eyes widened. "Is..she okay?" she said gaining her breath back. She looked to the horse who looked really tense. She knew she wasn't as good with horses as Percy, but she knew she had to try to calm her down. She inched closer and started by resting her hand on it's flank.

[Caitlan]

Daisy pinned her ears and went for Serenity. She wasn't a naturally mean or aggressive horse, it was just mothering instinct taking over and protecting Cate was her goal right now. 'Don't touch me...' she snorted.

Riku petted Stryker calmly. "Easy boy..." He said calmly before looking at Cate. "Names Riku.... I'm only trying to help...." He said as he flinched a little when she grabbed his left arm. "Your at Camp Half Blood..." He said as he placed some of the gel on her wound and placed the container on the floor. He grabbed a bandaged and softly placed it on the wound. He was used to using one hand, so he let her just have a hold of his arm.

Cate sighed and flinched a little when he applied the gel. "Daisy.... Stop.... Be nice..." she asked.

Daisy sighed and gently nuzzled Cate. 'Why should I?' she asked. 'We don't know them....'

"No... They are like me.... Demi-gods.... Can't you tell?" Cate said, dropping her hand. It moved toward the wound slowly.

'I don't trust the dog...' Biscuit muttered, crawling up Daisy's neck.

Cate chuckled. "Don't.... make.... me.... laugh...." she said, holding in her laughter.

[Serenity]

//It's okay// Serenity tryed to assure the horse. "I see. Do you know what happened?" she asked her hand laing on her flank anyway.

[Caitlan]

Daisy watched her, ready to lung again. 'Don't bring it up...'

Cate nodded, the laughter drained from her face. Her eyes held a somber look as she looked down. She started to move her free hand in the grass.

Biscuit sighed and looked at Serenity. 'We all know...'

[Serenity]

She looked to the squirrel, "Know what?" she asked aloud.

[Caitlan]

'What happen to Cate...' Biscuit said.

"They should know.... I don't want them to get in trouble for my actions...." Cate said softly.

'Are you sure? They might turn you in?' Daisy asked.

"Why would they?" Cate asked, snuggling closer to the mare.

'We don't know them.' Daisy said.

"But they seem nice enough...." Cate said, looking at Riku, her hand still playing with the grass.

[Natalie Horler]

Riku looked at Serenity and nodded a hello to her. "This might explain it..." He said tossing her the bullet that he took out of Cate's wound. He started to put away the things he took out.

[Caitlan]

Cate sighed and put an arm on Daisy as she tried to stand up.

Daisy used her nose to help her up. Once Cate was on her feet, Daisy stood up as well.

Cate looked at Riku then to Serenity. "It wasn't a random person shooting randomly....." she muttered softly, gazing at the bullet. Pain and hurt filled her eyes, looking like those of someone who had been betrayed by someone they knew.

[Natalie Horler]

Riku went to Cate's side calmly just in case she collapsed. "Then tell us... But only if you wish.." He said looking at Cate calmly. His voice was sweet and soft.

[Caitlan]

Cate sighed. "My adopted dad is in the army.... Both of my adopted parents work for the BLM with the mustangs... My dad just returned from battle and right before he came home..... I.... I let a herd out of their pen.... My adopted mom didn't care.... She knew I loved those horses.... I guess my adopted dad had enough of the stress and broke... I ran on Daisy with Biscuit.... And.... and he... he shot at me...." she said, looking down and leaning on the mare.

'It doesn't help her biological father stopped visiting her when they got me for her....' Daisy nickered softly, nudging Cate.
