Chapter 10 : Henry Gambles With The Hermes's Cabin

Alex

I had to say Cabin 11 wasn't the worst to stay in.

After playing a eternal game of Jeopardy with the others they allowed me and my brother to finally get some rest.

A boy with brown hair and an elfish face showed us around Cabin 11.

It was large old looking cabin due to it being home to reckless teenagers and kids. The brown paint was chipped off {which in my opinion needs to be repainted ASAP} and on there was the marking off Hermes {the caduceus} over the door which made Henry go completely nerdy and he gushed over it. I couldn't' do anything but smile. For once my sixteen year old brother was acting like a normal kid.

On the inside it was packed with kids. It had a least one bedroom with two twin beds, a wooden nightstand in between the two beds with a Grecian urn on it, and trunk at the end of the bed.

There was also winged shoes hanged on a hook, a wooden desk and a chair and curtains on the windows which the boy told me was for privacy.

Along with a map of the Camp and calendar's hung on the wall.

The boy had me and Henry stay in the back. We shared a bunk bed together. He got the bottom bunk and I got the top one.

The boy said while everyone else got ready for lunch we could stay and check the place out.

I nodded and said in a low voice "Thanks, I guess." and with that him along with all the others left.

I turned to Henry who was looking amazed at the winged shoes that hang on the hook as I crossed my arms and said "You know, it's not that cool Hen."

"To you there not, but to me there so cool." as he poked them as I rolled my eyes at my little brother.

"Get dressed."I said throwing him clothes as he caught them and said "After that can we go eat ?"

"Sure, I mean we haven't eaten in a couple of weeks."

"Alright." he said as he took of his jacket his shirt following next.

Even if my brother was scrawny he had a bit of abs. Key word a bit.

He put on a black t-shirt and a black jacket and his sat on the bed and tied his shoes.

"Wait for me ok ?" I told him as I went to the other room as I changed.

I took off all my clothes that were sweaty and drenched with rain as I saw they had a hair brush and  brushed out my hair.

I put my hair down and put a braid into it.

Along with changing my clothes

I got ready as I meet with Henry as I said "Come on so we can eat." as we both walked outside.

I noticed that there were kids some my ages and other's not and even some older kids. They were wearing the orange shirts either with jeans or shorts with sneakers.

"I guess that's the lunch hall." I said seeing other campers eating as we both walked over.

The pavilion was framed in Greek columns on a hill that overlooks the sea. There were no walls or roof that cover the mess hall. Torches blaze from the columns and a central fire burning inside a bronze brazier the size of a bathtub. Each table has a white cloth with purple trim.

I looked around as Henry said "Where do you want to sit ?"

"It's whatever." I told him.

Until I heard someone call our names "Al ! Henry !"as I noticed it was Zoe, Priscilla and all the others.

I cussed as Henry said "Language."

"Whatever." I told him as we made our way towards them...

Zoe

Once I noticed Alex and Henry I guested for them to sit next to us.

I noticed Alex's rolled her eyes wanting to sit alone with her brother but Henry grabbed her hand and the two were sitting next to each other.

"Hi !" Henry said to us. We all said hi back to him while Alex's just sat there.

"I don't think we've meet." I told him as he said "Oh I don't think we have. I'm Henry Santiago." as he extended his hand to mine as I shook it and said "Zoe. Zoe Grace."

"Zoe, that a pretty name."

My cheeks got red hot as I could tell I was stuttering "T-Thanks." as I removed my hand as he did the same.

"Anyway, how are you enjoying Camp ?"

"It's really cool." he told us as he smiled bright.

"That's good. I wonder who are godly parent is Al." he asked his sister who shrugged her shoulders while sipping on a pink smoothie.

"Who ever they are just know that Camp your home." Jason told him.

"Ok." as he nibbled on strawberries.

"H-Hey Hen how about you go talk to Travis over there we want to talk Alex." Percy said to Henry.

"Ok" he said as he kissed his sister cheek before walking off.

"What now ?" Alex asked us as I chew on a grape and said  "Does Henry know ?"

She removed the smoothie and asked "Know what ?"

"That he's a half-blood."

"I'm not ready to tell him just yet."

"So your just going to let him not know." Annabeth said as Alex rolled her eyes and said "And why do you care !"

"Because he gonna need to know."

Alex rolled her eyes and said "Your not his sister so you tell him and I'll kill you."

"Try me Alexandra."

Alex's growled as she scoffed and she extended her middle finger toward Annabeth as Annabeth rolled her eyes.

"Guys enough." Priscilla said.

"Alex. All Annabeth trying to say is he's going to find out sooner or later."

"I know he's going to find out and start asking questions."

"Has he ever ask questions about his farther before ?"

Alex's sighed and said "It would come up in tiny conversation but I would just avoid it."

"Smart." Phoenix told her as Alex rolled her eyes and said "Hush it Tool Girl."

"Oh were giving each other nicknames now. So I think I'm going to call you Ally."

Alex's rolled her eyes as she sip her smoothie again and gave her the finger as Phoenix smiled.

Alex looked over noticing her brother playing cards with a couple of Hermes's Kids.

"What are they playing ?" Phoenix wonder as Alex said "Poker."

"Poker ? Those Henry even know how to play poker ?" Priscilla asked as she sighed and said "Probably not."

Alex faced back to us and blew out her cheeks and went back to sipping her smoothie.

Spencer

I decide I would go step out of my cabin for a while since I was always stuck in there anyway.

I got dressed and put on a new set of clothes.

Ever since I helped Zoe and the others I started to become more open with my siblings though they were afraid to talk to me.

All expect Lou Ellen.

I was pouring some cereal as Lou Ellen walked towards me.

"Wow you outside your room that's news."

I gave her the finger as she said "Telling me to f off ins't going to solve your problems."

"It work sometimes."

"So Zoe and the others your friends now ?"

I shrugged as Lou Ellen said "Zoe's nice. You could learn a lot from her."

I rolled my eyes at her as I put the box away and ate my cereal.

"You know. You can catch Zoe training during 2:30"

"And I should know that because ?"

"So you can talk to her and get closer."

Spencer rolled her eyes as she walked away from her sister as she was about to go out the door before Lou Ellen said "Try talking to her."

While walking away Spencer held up her middle finger up high so her half-sister could see it. Lou Ellen rolled her eyes and mutter "That girl." as she closed the door to the Hecate Cabin.

Spencer was on her way towards the Sword Training Arena

She had to say she hadn't been outside her cabin since forever. She shut herself out from the whole world all because she didn't want to be hurt again.

While walking towards the training arena she saw Zoe dressed in her training wear while dueling on a straw dummies as the Daughter of Hecate just looked at her.   

Zoe was using her power of Aerokinesis to help herself fly as she struck down ever straw dummy one by one as she stabbed one through the chest with her spear as she clenched her spear causing it to blaze with lighting as she aim it at one of the dummy as Spencer noticed that it began to rumble with lighting.

Spencer's eyes glowed a bright purple as she looked straight at Zoe as her eyes faded.

"She's in rage."

Zoe then rose her eyes at the Daughter of Hecate who was looking at her.

"O-Oh Spencer." Zoe said as she rested her spear and said "Your outside your cabin such as surprise."

Spencer chuckled as Zoe walked towards her. "What are you doing here ?"

"O-Oh Lou Ellen told me you trained around 2:30 so here I am."

"Oh, I see Lou Ellen has a tracker on me." as Spencer laughed and said "Yea kind of."

Spencer sighed as she said "Z-Zoe when you were training a couple of minutes ago I noticed you were a little aggressive."

"Aggressive ?"

"Yea, so I use Empathy and read your emotions."

"So basically you read my feeling ?"

"Yea. You were scared and uneasy but you were also angry."

Zoe eyes dropped as she her spear vanished as she took in a sigh and said "I-I guess I've been a little uneasy for the last couple of weeks."

"I can tell." Spencer told her as she two sat on the grass as Zoe brought her knees to her chest and said "S-Spencer, how did you come to Camp ?"

Spencer's eyes went large as she said "W-Well- she took in a deep breath and said "The Heck, you deserve to know." as Zoe looked at the fifteen year old.
