A Chimera!

Normally the face of a goat was nonthreatening but when it was conjoined to that of a furious dragon it became more intimidating. The creature had three horrible heads which all stared at the tall naked girl menacingly; in the middle was the face of a huge lion with a raging mane which flowed backwards, to it's right there was a terrible scaly dragons crown with a tongue which flickered in Reyna's direction and lastly was a confused looking goat which let out a hearty bleat.

Reyna was not scared but she was alarmed. This scenario was not in her advantage. She had no allies, no weapons and also no armour. The fact that one blow from this monster would kill her unprotected bare body instantly was not lost. But what could she do? Finding help was not an option, she still had to keep her dignity even if it could likely cost her life.

She tried to remember as much as she could about the Chimera, quickly remembering that it's tough hide was nearly impervious to Celestial Bronze. Which meant fighting with her fists would end a lot worse. She had to be clever, calm and collected.

So she ran. She sprinted her nubile form as fast as she could through the meadow barely managing to jump out the way of a quick snap from the dragon's sharp fangs. She leapt past the great beast, landing a few meters away from it and dropping into a roll as her nude body swept past the blades of grass. She quickly pushed herself upwards to her feet and continued her dash towards the woods. The creature powerfully roared in frustration having narrowly missed it's prey.

"Shut up you big oaf!" Reyna yelled at it, hoping that nobody heard the Chimera's shout and chose to investigate finding her in the process.

She had made to it to the lining of trees and felt a lot safer instantly once she had entered the small forest; the lumbering figure would have a much harder time manoeuvring here than her skinny body. That didn't seem to stop the beast from smashing through a few trees which instantly fell to it's strength, crashing down onto the group creating more noise. Somebody had to notice at this point.

Reyna already had a plan. She knew that she had to somehow get to more advantageous terrain because fighting this monster naked and weaponless was not a wise idea. But as she guessed the Chimera's furious movements had upset a few forest druids, while most hid in fear there were a few brave ones who went over and used strange nature magic against the creature distracting it briefly.

What now? Well Reyna guessed she could lead it to the camp and if she managed it correctly she could use the Chimera as a distraction to stop the campers from seeing her. If they had their attention kept on the monster it could allow her to sneak past and find some much needed clothes. The Chimera would easily be taken down by a group of prepared demigods who actually had their weapons and gear.

She continued running through the forest towards where she assumed the Greek camp was. Her idea was risky both because she might get eaten by a goat and also because it had the possibility of her olive skin being completed exposed to an entire legion of demigods. Was she blushing? Zeus, this wasn't the time for that. The crazed Chimera was getting closer as it furiously ran after her ignoring the small druids. She didn't know if she should feel complimented by it's complete focus on her.

She ran her naked body throughout the woods ignoring the pain when she stepped on the wrong thing; she'd be in a lot more agony if that thing caught up with her. Occasionally she had to weave direction when the creature bounded forwards managing to get closer to biting her bare butt each time. She couldn't sprint much longer as even she only owned a limited amount of stamina.

Eventually the view changed from endless forest scenery to the clearing outside of Camp Half-Blood where a few demigods gathered but Reyna didn't let that distract her even if she was moments away from being seen nude. The beast charged once more and Reyna knew she couldn't run forwards into the open. She grabbed a sharp branch and activated the final part of the master plan.

She pushed her bare foot off the confused goat's snout and swiftly bounced onto it's back. She then stabbed the stick into the goat's snout causing it to bleat loudly. As the beast tried to turn to face her, she sneakily slid off to the side and silently headed backwards towards the woods. This left the monster bewildered to where she had vanished to and also the goat screaming from the wood lodged up it's nose- attracting the attention to the many demigods of the camp.

Reyna glanced back to see that her ploy had worked and felt relief when the Chimera stopped looking for her upon seeing the charging demigods. She'd normally be worried for their safety but when she saw Jason there she knew they'd all be fine. When she saw her fellow ex-praetor she also realised she had to move quickly; her face going incredibly crimson at even the chance of Jason seeing her uncovered body.

She knew those demigods would only be preoccupied for a little while and she still needed to find some clothes without even being glimpsed. But where could she go now? Of course this happened in the Camp she'd only recently arrived at, where she had little time to memorise her surroundings. This had been the worst quest of her life!
