Adam: Chapter 10

Sylvio looked stunned. That just proves another point. Helios didn't fade, he's still in here, in hiding. But we don't know from who he's hiding.

"I am, the son of Helios?" Sylvio asked. "I thought he faded?"

"Well, you just proved that Helios didn't fade." Chiron said. "So welcome, son of Helios, to camp half blood."

Sylvio looked stunned, and just then, Gary and Melina walked past by. I decided to hang out with them.

I caught up with them. They move quite fast when they're walking.

"Hey guys!" I called.

They stopped and 2 silver eyes stared at me. "Hello there," They greeted. "I forgot, what's your name again?" Gary said. "Adam something if I could just remember...."

"Adam Sinise." I said.

They looked at me, and I decided to bring up the capture the flag stuff.

"You're doing very well there, I had a feeling that you're more capable than..."

"It was nothing..." Gary said flatly.

"Nothing???" I punched him in the arm. "You call that nothing? You took on Josh and took him prisoner, how was that for nothing?"

"But he's small," Melina started. "He couldn't have..."

"Oh, don't underestimate him. Even he's small, if he's on the other side of the team, we're done for."

Gary stared at me with his silver eyes. "Oh really?"

"That's right. Whenever Josh is on our team, we always win. That's why people liked to pick him in their team."

Just then, Josh jogged his way towards us.

He put his hand on the twins back. "Hello guys. I see you've been talking about me."

"Josh! We're just talking about how great you are in combat." Melina said. "That's why people wants you on their team so bad, right?"

"Actually, you're mistaken." Josh said. "People wants me so bad on their team because they think without me they cannot win. But it's the winning spirit that you need to have. Without winning spirit, then you're just gonna be a loser."

"So, are you saying that we had to have a winning spirit inside us?"

"Yes. That's one thing that demigods need to have, the will to win. Of course not all people will win at the same time. But whatever you do, try your best. That's how you win."

"But not always, right?" Melina asked.

"You can't expect to win everytime you know. There will be some time where you lose, but that's just another barrier for you guys to break through. The best thing you could do is find your enemies weaknesses."

Then he jogged away to the woods.

Melina and Gary stared at each other. "He sure is smart.

We laughed, and I jogged towards the campfire.
