**My first fight**

Jessica pushed me forward so I was close to Nicholas. "Hey Nick, why don't help Autumn find of weapon."

"Sure. First let us start with the sword." Nick handed me the sword that his opponent had used. "You might want to put some armor on." He commented.

Jessica helped me put on my armor. She strapped me in tight. I couldn't breath or move in my armor. Now everyone that was training was watching me. Which made me feel under pressure. Then all of a sudden that gasped. What once was a sword in my hand turned into a big glob lying in the grass. I melted the sword in front of everyone, how embarassing.

"Calm down Autumn." Jessica looked at me. I felt at peace, calm, and I took a deep breath. "Nick will go easy on you."

Nick scoffed and handed me another sword. "Maybe."

The sword felt too light for me to carry it. It was like holding a feather. "Ready Lava Girl?" Nick asked.

Great I had a nickname already. "Yeah. Bring it on." Then Nick moved forward and so did I . He swung his sword and deflected it with mine. A crowd of demigods began to watch me and they cheered. He swung his sword a second time and it sliced through my armor. Then he kicked me in the ribs and I went down. Nick stood on top of me.

"You are not good with a sword." He stated.

"Really I didn't notice?" I snapped.

"Here." He kneeled down. "I have a better idea. My friend is known to be the best weapon maker there is at camp. He is the son of Hephaestus" He pulled me up off the ground. "I think you might be a daughter of Hepheastus."

Jessica intruded. "I think Autumn is the daughter of Apolo. She has this glow that's inside of her."

Nicholas walked me to the Hepheastus cabin. Steam and smoke came out of the cabin. To my astonishment, there was a 40 ft. Metal dragon resting on the roof of the cabin. "Hey Leo," Nick yelled.

A boy who looked like he was 17 years old came out. His skin was tan, he had curly brown hair, and he was cleaning off grease of his hands. He had a tool belt around his waist "Hey Nick, my man." Leo high fived Nick. Leo looked at me. "Wow Nick, you found yourself a girlfriend. Congrats." He had a cocky grin on his face. "What is your name?"

"Autumn Mitchell." I say.

"Leo, she's not my girlfriend and also she would like to talk to you." Nick added.

"Well, what do you to talk about?" Leo asked.

"Um...... could you make me a weapon? That's heat proof." I asked.

"Why heat proof ?" Leo's grin turned into a confused smile.

Nick started, "Well Autumn has the ability to project heat waves and she can melt things with her hands. She's kinda like you with your fire powers."

"Awesome! Okay Autumn hit me with your best shot." Leo challenges.

Was he serious. Does this guy have a death wish or something? "I don't want to you to melt you into a puddle."

"Girl, I've been through way worse. Trust me. I am also fire and heat proof, so heat doesn't bother me. See." Leo snapped his fingers and a crackling flame danced across his fingers.

"Okay." I nod. I breath in and out. Heat passed through my veins. The heat traveled to my hand. My hand started to glow bright yellow. I placed my hand on Leo's shoulder. After a minute I felt weak, my head started to hurt.

"Wow. That was impressive." Leo nods. "Now what weapon would you like me to make?"

"A bow and arrow." I say. A scream echoed in the back of my mind.

Leo gasped as he placed a hand on his heart. Dramatically. "A heat proof bow and arrow. Now that's just wasting my talent."

"Okay then surprise me." I smiled. My headache started to decrease.

"On it." Leo ran back in the Hephaestus Cabin. "Oh and Autumn, welcome to Camp-Half blood."

Nick spoke. "Leo just came back. With his girlfriend Calypso from Ogygia."
