~Roslyn POV~


I stare at the ceiling, I remembered the symbol floating above my head 'Daughter of Demeter...' how is that possible? I don't even know. I'm nothing like the rest of the cabin, they spent their time gardening and weren't much fighters, I was into fighting when needed and I spent my time playing lacrosse or weightlifting. I went to sleep when I had a dream, it was in a dark dank warehouse with water dripping down Marceline was wearing a helm, cuirass, gauntlets, faulds and greaves with bone motifs, she was facing a lady with platinum blonde hair who had to be middle aged, Marceline took a sword, blade first and shoved it through the lady's chin and skull, then forces the handle up, snapping her neck backwards. She rips the sword out and stabs the lady in the abdomen, breaking their spine and several ribs, the lady took a knife and stabbed it in Marceline's neck, Marceline calmly pulled the knife and shoved it down the lady's throat "Saskiya...remember when you did this to me? You left me too die. I'll return the favor" Saskiya was spilling blood from her mouth, choking on the knife "I don't care whether you live or die" she threw Saskiya to the ground, Saskiya quickly took out the knife "Marushka..." she kicked her in the face "No one can call me that loving nickname besides my father that you killed"


"I never laid a hand on him!"


"Don't tell me such lies you filthy maggot"


"Listen...I never meant to do all those things..."


"Liar"


"I only hoped that you wouldn't be an albino forever"


"...Hope only brings disappointment" Marceline said sadly looking at the sword, the warehouse stayed silent, until Marceline became alert her eyes were different, pitch black sclera with bright red pupils, "Yes...master" she looked at Saskiya, slowly she raised her sword, Saskiya shook her head rapidly "Time for bed..." Marceline made a clean quick cut "Now sleep forever..." she crouched down the lifeless body and wiped the sword clean, she checked for tiny specs "Words of a loser are meaningless aren't they?"


I woke up by falling out my bed, head first "Ai ai ai. Kurat, mis teeb haiget" I cursed in Estonian "You ok?" Katie asked helping me up "Yeah. So what are we doing today?" I ask Katie thinks for a second "Maru tells us you're a fighter so we should find you a weapon" she said fixing my hair "Hey how tall are you?" She asked "5'5.5" why?" She shrugged "You look pretty tall"


"Marceline is taller"


"True. I think she's almost six feet" the conch horn signaled it was time for breakfast "Cabin Four fall out!" She yells everyone follows her to breakfast while I stayed behind, I went to the arena, Marceline was training using a scythe, a 6 feet long with a 3 foot long curved blade, she was cutting straw dummies like it was second nature, she looked normal, her hair tied back, wearing a muscle shirt that showed off white bandages, shorts and armor for her arms and legs only like she wasn't worried about dying. I watched as Marceline raised her scythe to finish the last one when she saw me "Tere hommikust. Kuidas magasid?" She asked walking towards me she was breathing heavily probably from how tight she did her chest bind "Fine, you?"


"I got a bitch hangover from drinking 30 shots of vodka, 3 glasses of absinthe, and I had three cups of Rüdesheimer Kaffee this morning"


"No water?"


"No water" I patted her shoulder "So what did you need Roslyn?"


"I need a weapon" Marceline scratched her head "Ok but you want a weapon right now?" I nod she sighs pulling off her armor, "Let's go". Marceline cracked her fingers, I did the same, the sound resonated sounding like a gun going off "Oops......" I say she laughed, as we headed to a shed where they had apparently all the weapons. "What would suit my friend?" Marceline said aloud she picked up a dagger before shaking her head, I picked up a bow "Remember the business card incident?" I put it down remembering that incident involving my bad aim, a business card and a school official's eye, after hours of searching I was going to give up when something caught my eye it was a giant axe I grabbed it "How about this?" I asked Marceline looked in worry "It'll slow you down with your attacks" I shrugged picking it up, it was perfect "I'll call you Kõva töötaja" I said I felt Marceline put a hand on my shoulder "How about we take it for a test run then?" I didn't show it but I secretly smiled from finding this perfect weapon

I don't know why but I love franchises where a small/medium height girl uses a giant weapon
