The camp was huge. Olivia showed me around before we went to the Wolf cabin. The were a lot of cabin. There was the Falcon cabin, Eagle cabin, Jackal cabin and so on. Olivia told me that the predator cabins were the best in the camp. Then you'd get the prey cabin like the Bunny cabin. When the tour ended, we headed to the Wolf cabin. I think that was the biggest cabin. We got inside. I saw some other camps there. Three girls and 4 boys. I didn't know I'd be sharing a cabin with boys. And I think Mom didn't know either. "This is your cabin. I advise you to go get the best bed," Olivia said. "How did you figure your way around this camp in such a little amount of time", I asked really confused. Olivia laughed. "I'm the counsellor for the Wolf cabin. I've been here for a couple of years". That made sense. She did look older than me. She looked like she was 18. Olivia waved at me and turned away and left. I went straight to the bed near the window. I set my bags down and sat on my bed, with the brochure in my hands. I might as well know more about this camp if I'm going to be here for 3 months. There were a lot of activities. But the one that caught my eye was archery. I love archery. Dad taught me how to use a bow and arrow when he and Mom was still together. If only I knew they had archery. I would've bought me bow and quiver. As I was reading, some bloke decided to come stand next to my bed. I looked up to see who it is. It was one of the guys. He had blonde hair, tall guy and had a screen on his cheek which was faint. But the thing that axed me was his eyes. They were multicoloured. They were hazel with a tinge of grey. I couldn't help but stare at them. But I didn't want to be those girls who fell for guys that easily. "Hi", he finally said breaking the ice. "Hi, I'm Blaire Levesque", I said, reaching my arm out to shake his hand. He just looked at my hand. "I'm Liam Adler", he told me without shaking my hand. Ouch. I put me hand away. "I just came here to greet you since you're new here". "Oh that's very-", I didn't even finish my sentence. He turned away and went to his bed. Rude. "I knew this was a bad idea", I grumbled before continuing reading the brochure.

We were told to wait for our counsellors. We sat in the cabin for an hour until Olivia showed up. "Sorry I'm late. I had to deal with a situation. Something about a skunk in the boys' bathrooms. So I'm Olivia Adler, your counsellor", Olivia introduced herself. Hold up. I looked at Olivia then at Liam. It can't be. Are they siblings? But how? They shared nothing in common. Olivia was so optimistic then you get Mr Dark-And-Mysterious over there leaning against the wall. They were probably related . "How about we introduced ourselves, shall we", Olivia suggested. A girl with brunette hair and green eyes stood up. "Yeah. The name's Stephanie Cohen, losers. If you touch my stuff you're dead. If you get in my way-", then she remembered Olivia was standing looking at her with a grim expression. "That's all you need to know about me", Stephanie smiled and batted her eyes lashes at Liam. Gross. We went in a circle. There was Carol Jackson, Aurora Smith, Ethan Carter, Zach Watterson and Caver Anderson. Everyone was shocked when they heard that Liam and Olivia shared the same last name. "Must be a coincidence", I heard Ethan whisper to Zach. "Well, now that we got that out of the way, we gotta go to the mess hall. Come on. And be careful of the skunks".
