Electra stepped into the Hermes Cabin. So this is the great Cabin number eleven.. home of the rejects and unwanted.. Great. Electra is a daughter of Hestia, the goddess of fire and home. She was told to stay in the Hermes cabin since her mother didn't have a Cabin of her own. Sleeping bags were laid out all over the floor and every bunk was taken. Conan stood beside her not liking their situation anymore than Electra did. Two boys and a girl came up to greet her, she eyed them with a look of disgust and pushed past them. She found an open area in the far corner of the room. It obviously hadn't been occupied in a while and it was the only space open. Spider webs had formed and it looked as if a mouse was living there. "You can't be serious." She muttered. "I liked my spot next to the tree way more than this little corner of despair!"
Finally, after about 30 min of cleaning, and setting things up. She finally had the area the way she wanted. Electra reached into her bag and pulled out a thin traveling sleeping bag. and laid it out against the wall. Conan sat down next to the sleeping bag looking up at her with wide eyes. Electra sighed, and turned around, imediately spotting a blanket in the opposite side of the room. Turning to Conan she said, "Watch my things, I heard the Hermes kids are big on stealing." Electra spun around and walked over to the bunk with the blanket. She grabbed without a second thought and was back at her corner of despair within 30 seconds. When she returned she saw Conan standing over her things, growling. A tall muscular looking boy and a lean girl stood side-by-side trying to reach her bag without getting bitten by Conan. Electra grabbed the boy's shoulder and spun him around, "Back off, kid! This stuff is mine, get lost."
The girl turned around and scowled. "No, we aren't leaving until we get that bag of yours. Rumor has it that you have some items worth stealin."
Electra pushed the girl into the wall and pulled out Thanatos. "I told you to leave."
The next 30 seconds were blurry for Electra. The boy ended up grabbing her shoulders, trying to hold her in place while the girl pulled out a dagger and put it to her throat. "And I told you, that we weren't leaving until we got your bag!" By now, there was a fairly large group of kids watching the fight unfold. People were betting the outcome and several people even looked as if they were going to join in. Electra brought her knee up and hit the girl in the stomach, she yelped and dropped the dagger. Electra the pulled her leg back and kicked the boy in the crouch. He went down whimpering in pain. Conan stood on the boy's chest not allowing him to get up. Electra pulled the girl to her feet and growled, "Get out." The girl was about to object, but Conan snarled and brought his teeth dangerously close to the boy's throat.
"Fine! We will go, but you can't possibly be allowed to keep that wild animal in here. It isn't safe." She spat, scrambling away from Electra. Conan stepped away from the boy, who crawled after the girl. The crowd let them pass and then looked back at Electra with shocked expressions on their faces. Electra scowled. "Show's over!" The crowd imediately despersed, leaving Electra and Conan alone.

Just then Percy hears some commotion in the Hermes cabin. Percy peeks through the windows and sees the new camper and two Hermes kids, and the dog in a fight. "Whoa." Percy opens the door, but by that time, the fight had already cooled down. "Hey, what just happened in here?" The new girl clears her throat, "Nothing." Percy tells the girl to come outside. "Wait a second, are you claimed by your god parent?" "Yes." She says. "Who is your god parent?" Percy asks. "Hestia." "And what's your name?" "Electra." She says. "I have something to show you." Percy says.
Percy leads Electra to a campfire in the camp. At the campfire, a girl was sitting near the fire, making the flames go up and down. Percy bows. "Electra, this is your mother." Then out of of nowhere, Electra faints.

Electra watched Percy come in. She rolled her eyes and followed him outside, but before she left she told Conan to guard her things once more. She chose to bring Thanatos, her sword, just in case she got jumped or someone tried to pick a fight. Percy led her outside and Electra saw a girl sitting near the fire. She heard the words, This is your mother.. All of a sudden, Electra's vision went blurry and her legs went numb. Then, everything was black.
Electra woke up to see the girl standing next to her. Hestia. You could tell that they were related. They had almost identical faces, except Electra's was harder. Slowly, Electra got her feet. Clearing her throat, Electra managed to mumble, Mom? She glanced at Percy, who was standing off to the side. She grew uneasy and slowly rested her right hand on the hilt of Thanatos.

"Yes, this is your mom." Percy says. "She usually sits here and watches the fire." "Oh, okay." Electra says, still freaking out. "Hello." Hestia says.

Electra's eyes were wide as she stared at Hestia. Uhmm.. hey. Was all that Electra could manage to get out. She pursed her lips and sighed, trying to calm down. Electra closed her eyes and breathed slowly. And in a matter of seconds she was calm again. She stared at the ground not knowing what to say to Hestia. She didn't think about her much, in fact, she hardly ever thought about her at all. She didn't remember her and she had never bothered asking her father about her. And now that her mother was standing in front of her she realized that she had nothing to say to her. So Electra just put on a fake (but believeable) smile. She nodded to her and said, it was nice seeing you again. And with that final note, she left and returned to the Hermes cabin were she found Conan still guarding her things. however, people must have learned not to mess with Conan because nobody was by Conan. In fact, no one was on the same side of the room as Conan. Everyone else was crammed on the other side, trying to stay as far away from the wolf as possible.
Electra pushed her way through the crowd and reached Conan easily. Once Conan saw her, he relaxed imediately. He laid down on the blanket that Electra had stolen as Electra fell asleep inside her sleeping bag.

Jacob lumbered into the room, slamming the door. He started muttering to himself: "Stupid horse," "It's all Gorbin's fault for putting me in Athena cabin without getting claimed," "Just look at this place," and "I'm hungry". He suddenly realized how crowded this place was. There were two kids with bruises and cuts as if they messed with a wolf (Ha ha! Yeah right!), some other kids getting robbed by bigger kids, and a sleeping girl with a wolf by her side (maybe those two kids WERE messing with a wolf...) and many, many, MANY, more demigods squeezing in together. His second thought was: "Where am I going to sleep?" All beds were taken and he didn't have a sleeping bag. So he slung off his bookbag and tossed it to the floor and used it as a pillow. He shivered and sighed and fell asleep, unaware of the horror that would take place tommarow...

Jacob stirs a little before waking up. He'd been having a dream lately. In it he hears a female voice calling for help. He was trying to see her face but when he was really close he awoke to a girl about 13 was trying to wake him up. He was startled and his reflexes caused him to jump straight up(wich scared crap out of the girl). "Sorry!" Jacob said.

River walks in, his clothes dirty, his black hair ragged and his bright blue-green eyes tired. He searched for a bed and when he didn't find his he cursed under his breath and sat down near two kids, a girl (Val), and a guy (Jacob). He took his backpack off and examined the things inside and he grunted, his sword still hadden't come back, he had a few hundred dollars, and he had a picture of his dead brother, Peter. Who he knew was Roman not Greek. Then his eyes rested on one thing, a book and a key, he hadn't figured out the words to open it with so he just kept it with him. He zipped up his backpack and played with his crystal braclet and looked at the two kids.

Jerez peers through the window, walking quietly around the cabin to the door, careful not to stir the sleeping campers inside. He opens the door and it creaks "Shhh" he tells it...he creeps in and sees an assortment of demigods....and all with magic items for the taking, he thinks to himself.

River looked up when he heard the creak of the door and he pushed on a crystal on his braclet and it turned into a ceizal bronze sword with an unbrakeable crystal-like handle and he said, "Get out unless you are a son or daughter of Hermes, or you are unclaimed."

"Pfft" Jerez exclaims...."and what exactly, are you gonna do about it?" Jerez paces staring at the blade River wields..."Interesting sword ya got there" he sais "mind if a I borrow it?" Jerez gives River a devious smile, flips two coins and catches them as they turn into identical stygian iron blades with fiery red and orange runes on the blade, a skull at the hilt and the handle covered in blood red cloth. "lets dance..." Jerez sais his eyes radiating darkness...

River smiled and his blue eyes glinted and his crystal sword glowed for a moment and River got a tight feeling in his stomach and then it erupted into blue flames, now it was even. He had no idea how it always did that but his sword had special properties, that he still hadn't figured out.

"Fight fire with fire" Jerez whispered as he touched the pearl surfboard amulet around his neck. Suddenly a dark armor made of stygian iron materialized over him, it was decorated with skulls on the shoulders, wrists, belt, knees and boots. It also sported blood red pieces of cloth wrapped the odd chink between the armor and leather for extra defence...also a scarf and bandana of the same colour materialized on him...this was it...his new present form his father. Crimson flames radiated from Jerez as he stared at River... "So what are you waiting for pipsqueak?" He said "come get some" He swung his swords a couple of times and his ice blue eyes sparkled as he waited for River to come at him.
