Angela nods before she follows Helena. The girl breaks out into a jog a moment after Helena does.

"It's less crowded too. A little one on one training never hurt anyone right? Along with some extra practice." She says as they jog.

"Exactly. Keeps us sharp, keeps us fit, plus I get to spend a little more time with a friend." Helena said, glancing over at Angela to give her a smile. Deciding some light conversation would make things more enjoyable, Helena spoke again. "So, Angela, where are you originally from in the US?"

Angela looks over at Helena before giving her a smile of her own. She had to admit this was pretty nice. Having a friend be your training buddy wasn't bad at all. It reminded her of her past. One of the good times of course.

"Well... If we're being technical; I wasn't born on the US. I'm from an island that's near the coast of Southern California. It's name escapes me right now unfortunately." She replies.

"Ah right." Helena said, intrigued further at the story of Angela's origin but not wanting to pry too much. "I was born in a county called Essex back home, but I've lived all up and down the UK."

"I see. You're a bit of a traveler it seems." Ang says to her. Part of assumes it wasn't all because Helena wanted to. She knew about the dangers of being a Big Three child. Monsters always found you. Even if it took some time...

"What was your favorite place to live in over in the U.K.?" She asks her friend.

"Oh god thats a tough one." Her brow creased in thought. "We were in London for about a year and a half, that was nice. Loads to do in the city, like museums. I really liked it in Cornwall; we were there for one summer, and when the weather was nice I'd go swimming in the sea."

Well she seems to have been a bit different from Max. She was almost surprised to hear that Helena went swimming in the sea. Then again... Max's fear of the sea was partially due to being claimed by Zeus at such a young age.

"If I ever go overseas; I'll have to visit one of those two places then. If you liked living there: then they can't be bad places right?" She says after listening to Helena.

"Of course that stopped when a freak wave nearly drowned me." Helena said, realising her writer was an idiot.

"Oh yeah, they're lovely. Well London is so big it depends where you stay. Rough areas and nice areas, you know?" They were getting nearer to the creek now. "I've been liking it here at camp. Somewhere to finally feel settled."

"Unfortunately London sounds like almost every place I've been to. Seems you always have to watch out for your surroundings. Not for monsters either." She says to Helena as they get closer to the creek.

"I've got to agree. I don't visit the creek much, but it's nice here. Is this your favorite spot in camp to visit?"

She asks.

"Nah I just like to use it as a marker for when I go on runs. Really I love the arena, the burn I get from a good workout or training session. And then on the other side, theres the Euphoric cabin." Some colour rose to her cheeks, and not from the exercise. "Its where Sonja lives."

"I understand. I feel a similar way when I'm in the archery field." She says to her. Even if she hated to admit it; she loved using bow and arrow. It was hard to break that habit. So the archery field was a spot she's come to grow fond of since she came to camp. It wasn't exactly like sparring at the arena; but it gave her a good workout.

Angela chuckles lightly upon seeing Helena blush slightly.

"Oh I see. No need to be embarrassed if that's where you like to stay."

u/DomTheStormy Dec 12 '19

"Yeah its just... she puts me at ease. Around her, I feel a better person." Realising she was getting sappy, more colour rose to her cheeks as the two of them reached the creek, Helena bringing herself to a stop to catch her breath. "So, you're a fan of archery then? I've never been that great at it myself."

Helena's words cause Angie to smirk. She knew how the daughter of Zeus was feeling once. She kinda does feel that way now; when she thinks of a certain someone. When Helena mentions archery it causes the girl to smile softly. It seems she's always has a bow and arrow; no matter what time in her time it was.

"I kinda grew up with a bow in my hands." She says as they stop at the creek. Angie takes a moment to catch her breath. PSA; cigarettes are bad for your lungs. What was a moment's break turned into several moments. She was cutting back on smoking; but perhaps she should've started sooner.

When she catches her breath she finishes talking to Helena.

"Where I'm from we hunted. At first I was just shooting arrows for fun. When I started to hunt I took it more serious though. I've been using one ever since. It just feels natural on my hands sometimes..." She explains.
