The Greek Civil War

Astrid Ashbourne

"Woo! Yeah! Team Two best team!" Astrid teleported into the middle of the yard where the flag was planted and yanked it out of the ground. Thrusting it into the air she yelled out, "Alright bitches, let's gather round." Slowly the group of demigods circled up around her. Gesturing at the other team, who had also gathered around, she began to talk. "That team over there thinks they have us beat already. They've got two of the big three on their side as well as the Ares and Hephaestus kids. They've also got those great looking Aphrodite kids and the one weird Nemesis kid."

She paused for a minute trying to remember where she was going with this speech. She hated speeches, never could get good at them. "Anyway we are not going to fail. If we fail, there won't be a whole lot anyone else will be able to do. What I'm trying to say is that failure at this point isn't really the smart move to make. We are not to fail, do I make myself absolutely clear? Failure is bad, it won't help us in the short term and certainly won't do us any favours in the long run, and I think I've lost track of this speech, and I'm not too sure where it's headed. But I know where it started and that's what you've got to keep in mind."

Astrid could see she had lost most of the people so she just threw the flag into the surrounding people and said, "Alright hurry up, let's get this damn thing hidden. Artemis kids, you're used to the hunting shit, so you hide that flag quick and get on the front ASAP."

Quote: "Hello? I'm on fire."

Name: Astrid Ashbourne

Age: 21

Gender: Female

Height: 5'7"

Weight: 135

Ethnicity: Caucasian

Sexuality: Bisexual

Religion: Atheist

Occupation: College Student / vigilante

Ability: Pyrokinesis

Personality: Egotistical and boastful, Astrid thinks of herself as a clever strategist and one of the most powerful "evolved." She is constantly complimenting herself, showing off, and making jokes at other expense. This is not to say that she doesn't have an appropriate reason to be so confident. Her sharpened wit is in constant use when around her, as she is always thinking ahead of the situation.

Background: Before Astrid discovered her power she was nothing. Not that she was really nothing, she was of course something. But that something wasn't really something, it was boring. Two normal parents living in the suburbs, college life studying for a degree in business, and that was it. Nothing big, no exciting relationships, no big business opportunities. She didn't even get mugged, not that she wanted to get mugged, but it would have made things a lot more interesting.

Then she caught on fire. Everything changed, her life, her story, her everything. It became... significant. She was significant and she wanted to show it. She wanted the world to know who she was. What she was. More than that she wanted to show them how great she was. Let them revel in her power, whether it be of fear or respect she didn't care.

Watch out world, things are about to heat up.

The Greek Civil War

Astrid Ashbourne

Astrid left Ray, standing like a numbskull holding the pills, in a cloud of dust. She teleported out of the camp around the world. It was her favourite passtime. Seeing different events firsthand. Not too long ago she had run with the bulls in Spain. That was fun, though when they got close she did cheat a little bit. To say the least, the spaniards were a bit surprised when she rode through the end of the race on the back of a bucking bull.

Currently she was in Afghanistan, helping out the locals. With a war raging its way through the country many people got caught in the cross-fire. She was using her power as much as she could to save everyone. Anytime she heard about a raid going on through a village or a town, she would teleport in and teleport out as many as she could. Over her time spent in the area she had built up a reputation. She was called a Dead Man by many because she had saved so many in impossible situations. From suicide missions to defusing bombs and mines, Astrid was a real hero.

She didn't really consider herself to be a hero. She did her fair of bad as well as good. Selling drugs and stealing happened just as often as she saved lives. At camp she tried to keep her activities a secret. She didn't want people to find out that she was using her power out in the mortal world. Lots of Half-Bloods would probably look down on it and not understand. Not that she gave a shit.

Astrid teleported above Camp Half-Blood. 15,000 feet high she could see for miles. As the wind whipped around her she soared around in circles. This had become a recent hobby of hers. It was like skydiving, but she never had to jump. If she really wanted she never even had to touch the ground. She could just teleport up when she got close to the ground. Laughing out loud she did a backflip in the air. The sound was ripped out of her mouth, but she kept laughing anyway. When she came into 1000 feet of the ground, she teleported onto her feet on the ground.

People were walking in groups towards the pavilion of food. It looked like they were preparing for an event, because everyone was walking with a quickness in their step. Were they going to play capture the flag on their first day at camp. Awesome, she loved the game. Though it was kind of like cheating when she played. Scouting the enemy was so easy, she had tried to make it more difficult by refusing to wear armour and carry a weapon. If she was caught out in the open outside of camp, this was exactly how she would be so she might as well practice for it. Whoever was on the other team was going to have to create some pretty unique defences to prevent Astrid from grabbing the flag. She smiled at the thought of a challenge.
