[greekchorus]

[Well, it looks like the Lady Artemis has heard little Arin's prayer, and has decided to exact retribution on Ares' son - as well as everyone else who did nothing to stop him - in a big way.

Despite falling asleep in their beds last night, no cabin will be filled except the Artemis cabin, who have been pardoned. In fact, for a moment, campers will probably be confused as to where they've come to. They certainly didn't go to bed in the forest.

Once they look around, though, they'll notice some different things. Maybe they're much lower to the ground than usual or have extra limbs or appendages. Maybe they can smell better, or fly into the sky.

Regardless, it won't take them too long to realize that they've been turned into some sort of animal, bound to the forest by an invisible wall, and forest natives won't be able to understand their cries for help - only other campers-turned animals will. Your mission, campers? Survive the day, and try not to get eaten.

[Jill's tired of animals. Tired of being one. A bird lands and she stays perfectly still, watching with black eyes as her skin turns a more mottled brown, the green slowly disappearing.]

[renegadehero]

[Deciding that it's probably time to get serious, she looks out at the forest from her spot, narrowing her eyes in an attempt to see if there are any... Out of place animals. Of course she's still going under the assumption that this is a camp-wide curse.

... It's a pretty good assumption seeing as she knows she didn't do anything to offend the gods. When she doesn't though she let's out a sigh.]

Maaaaan, if I were the others where would I go?

[Probably back to camp Sojourner.]

[staysthesame]

[She knows that voice! It settles Jill's reptile nerves as she creeps forward, scaly lids blinking slowly over her eyes.] Sojourner, is that you?

[Otherwise, she's going crazy and just making up the fact that a sparrow is talking.]

[renegadehero]

Jilly?

[She blinks, looking this way and that not noticing the chameleon.]

Where're you?

[staysthesame]

[Oh, right. Camouflage. She takes slow, easy steps forward.]

Sorry, just working on my blending skills.

[renegadehero]

[Her eyes lock on the chameleon.]

Dude! That's so cool. I didn't even see you!

[There's a small twitter of a laugh, not entirely different then her normal laugh.]

So, any idea what's going on?

[staysthesame]

Defense mechanism, I think. I don't know what from, though. [What eats chameleons, anyway?]

Not a clue. One moment, I'm passed out in my bed. The next, I'm in a tree and have the urge to eat flies.
