Astrid strode into the armory, going to the spot where she normally kept her favorite weapons. Her sword hung by her side as usual. AS she reached for where her long handled knife usually was, she found it wasn't there.
She knew she had put it there yesterday after training. Her eyes flashed to the Athena boy that stood nearby. "You!" She snapped. He jumped and glanced at her. "You took my knife. Give it back if you want your head to stay on your shoulders."
"Uh, no I didn't." "You're the only one in here. Yes you did." Little did she realize that the knife had just fallen behind a few other weapons. She took a few steps towards him, her eyes furious. "Look, I don't know where your knife is, but I don't have it." "Oh yes you do." She came to stand right in front of him, and he started to look a little nervous. Astrid was known for her temper, and she'd knock down anyone who got in her way. "Astrid, I'm sorry, but I haven't seen it. Try asking one of the other campers that came in here." "You. Have. It." "I'll help you look for it." He offered, trying to calm her down. But she was way past that. She shoved, and he fell amongst a pile of swords as he let out a yell.

Drake heard a crash and some one yelp, so he ran in with his blacksmith apron on. "What's going on, here?" he asked before seeing Tony sitting in a pile of swords and Astrid standing over him. It was pretty clear what had happened. "Astrid!" he shouted while picking him back up. "How many times have I told you not to bully the other campers!?" This implication made 68, but she probably wasn't counting.

Joanna was bored, and being bored more often than not, led to practicing... And pranking.
She walked over to the armory in anticipation to practice with something other than her switchblade. Jo then heard some shouting about a knife and crashing, and immediately ran over to the armory. She was catching her breath as she watched another camper get helped up by Drake. She started to walk up to the three campers, but stopped short. She did not want to get on Astrid's bad side. At least, not on accident.
Passing the others with ease, she went to the pile of weapons. She started to dig through until she found what she was looking for. Astrid's knife. Jo rolled her eyes, a mischievous smirk on her face. Ares campers could be so dense sometimes. She pulled it out and carelessly twirled it in her hands.

She gave Drake an icy glare. "He stole my knife. It's not bullying." She ignored his question about how many times he had told her not to. "And it isn't really any of your business."
She rolled her eyes as Joanna walked in. "What is this, a public event?" Her eyes flashed again as Joanna pulled out her knife, and she glared at Tony. "Hiding it, huh?" She glanced back at Joanna. "As for you, hand it over if you'd like to not have your head on a spike."

Joanna tapped her chin with the hilt of the knife. She could give it to Astrid and be home free, but she was a child of Hermes and the chance was too good to pass up. "How about I keep it and you don't do anything to my head? I like this knife." She scrunches her nose condescendingly, continuing to play with the knife.

Astrid snorted. "How about I do? The knife is mine, and only mine. And if it's not back in my hand in 2 seconds, I'll get you, and the rest of your cabin just for fun."

"I can assure you that my siblings and I are fully capable of defending ourselves from a hot-headed daughter of Ares." Jo smirks, hanging the knife on her belt. "And I don't see your name on it. Finders keepers, Asty."

"Oh really? Then you and your siblings won't have a problem going up against me and the rest of my cabin." She casually drew her sword out. "First time, I'm annoyed. Second time, I'm very irriated. Third time, you're getting burned. Hand it over Tanner." Her eyes held a dangerous glint.

"Oh, I couldn't possibly do that, Astrid? I'm having fun, aren't you?" Upon seeing Astrid pull her sword, Jo became very nervous. She didn't show it, and she didn't want to. She moves her hand to her pocket and pulls out her switchblade, turning it into a sword. Better to be prepared, right?

"No, but I'm about to." Astrid replied, and instantly, her sword went flying through the air towards Joanna's switchblade.

Drake finished making sure Tony wasn't injured. He glanced nervously behind Drake, and the latter followed his eye. Drake saw that Astrid and Joanna had pulled out their swords. Clearly, Joanna had stolen the knife. Why did Hermes have to be the god of thieves? Astrid swung at Joanna's arm, but Drake grabbed Asttrid's swinging arm. "Joanna, her the knife!" he ordered.

Joanna flinched as Astrid went straight to disarm her. Luckily, Drake was there to stop her. Jo pouted at Drake after he demanded for the knife, asking for a bit more teasing. She sighed, knowing that this was either going to end boringly or badly. Throwing Astrid's knife to her, she sighed. "Fine, Drake."

She yanked her arm out of Drake's grasp, and neatly caught her knife when Joanna flung it at her. "Don't think this is over, son of Hermes. The woods, your entire cabin, Friday evening, along with mine. We'll settle this then."

Joanna scoffs. "You expect my whole cabin to just go to the woods? You obviously don't know Hermes campers." She smirks as she puts her hands on her hips, the handle of her switchblade against her. "We'll be settling this on our own time. No violence, just pranks. It's entertaining that way."

"Ares cabin doing no violence? You obivously don't know us if you honestly think we'd agree to that. Fine, throw in the pranks, but don't think there won't be some swords involved."
