"The Australian government as said that we all have to now social distance and follow the COVID laws to keep the virus from spreading. Now who do we have to blame for this?" asked an annoyed Percy.

"Yeah, it's just sad that APOLLO had to do something like this. I mean come on dad! Did you really have to release a plague on the world?" asked will who was sitting next to Nico opposite Percy.

The assembled group all made noises of agreement with Annabeth rolling her eyes from where she was sitting and Silver and Alyss laughed a bit before turning back to their game of speed.

"I'm not even upset that we have to social distance from people much, but the thing I'm most upset with is that Dad is begging me and Silver to help him out with the paperwork because there is too many people dying and there is too much work for us!" moaned Nico.

"Amen to that!" yelled out Silver from her game. Alyss laughed again at Silver's plight. "Stop laughing," grumbles Silver just as she and Alyss flipped the cards again. They continued that while the rest of the group continued complaining about the virus.

\\\\\\Timeskip bought to you by a new wave of COVID coming to Australia ///////

"Day I have absolutely no idea of the quarantine and us staying in the cabins." Breathed out a raspy voice from under a mountain of blankets. "All activity has ceased and I am now binging a lot of anime and need help." The voice was soon revealed to be Alyss who decided to do this because she wanted to have this as a memento.

"Hey Alyss! The food's here!" called out Percy from the door. The harpies had come to give the plates for breakfast. Camp had changed to fit with the laws so now all people were stuck in their respective cabins with the Apollo cabin running all operations as they are all automatically immune to all sicknesses. They started running a small clinic in the community to help ease the workload on professional doctors and the activities are now rostered.

Silver and Nico had gone down to the Underworld to help their father out with Hazel visiting to help sporadically. Camp Jupiter also had a small clinic and are continuing to treat cases in New Rome as the virus had reached there. The borders are all closed and new demigods are put into the Apollo cabin screening before they are integrated into camp. Basically all meetings are now online and Everyone misses each other.

The Apollo cabin is basically chaos at this point. "Where on hades did you keep the testing kits Kayla?" yelled out Will from one of the screening points.

"Next to the temporary treatments!" yelled back Kayla from where she was preparing another testing kit to be sent out. The other members of the cabin were all rushing around and even those of the cabin who aren't really healers were all helping by cleaning and sanitizing everything. All of the Cabin was tired. 'I miss Nico,' thought Will as he packed up, the kits and organised the new screening site.

The underworld was no different. There were suddenly lots of new dead and they had to be sorted. Charon was not happy with his new orders as he carted lots of the newly dead across the river with little waiting as they needed to let the virus be sanitized before they could be sorted so they all gathered at the new COVID death lines and the other lines were not stopping. Nico and Silver were practically asleep on the desk with Hades as the servant ghouls set stack after stack on their desks.

"That's It!" yelled out Nico suddenly, "We are taking a break and I want to talk to Will."

"Yeah I think now's a good time for the break the pap- work seems to be stopping for a bit and I think we can do the last 20 piles after we eat agreed the weary Silver. "I don't think I've slept in days!" Nico agreed with her as their eyebags seemed to be deeper and heavier than Hitoshi Shinso's. Hades could not comment as he seemed to be drooling on the desk fast asleep with more stack than Nico and Silver.

So far anyway it seems thatthis whole COVID mess was one to blame all on Apollo.

Hey! 

So I haven't updated in a while but I was sitting bored in Geo so I decided to write this on a whim. This is basically a slight character study for Camp Half blood and a few individuals so sorry it this is really trashy. I am on a roll anyway because check out my other story "It started with a pair of wings" and please comment! I am always open to criticism and compliments (Yes I said that) so please do so. I'll probably update something else later so please tell me in my messages what You would like me to focus more of my energy on as I am writing all these new chapters in class when I am bored so I don't really have any other time. I don't actually know where I am going for Earthshaker anytime soon so expect more special chapters here rather than story chapters(Sorry).
