Sorry I just really liked the pic above...
I was guided to the Hermes cabin by Emily as the moment Dionsyus had welcomed us, Abhijit was attacked by owls. It was quite the scene to watch the birds peck the heck out of Abhijit. For a full five minutes.

The Hermes cabin had sleeping bags all over the floor, for the unclaimed kids. The bunks were for Hermes kids. Clothes were strewn around the bunks and a couple of boys seemed to have started to throw rolls of toilet paper at each other.

Emily cleared her throat before yelling.

"Attention!"

A couple of heads turned towards us but the others seemed very caught up in their toilet paper wars.

"Attention!" Emily screamed. Everybody in the room turned our way. "We have a new camper! This is Ria!"

A toilet paper roll hit me in the face.

"Ethan!" Emily scolded.

"Sorry! It was meant for Connor!"

"Anyway... Make her feel welcome." Emily continued. "Peace!"

The moment Emily left the room, havoc broke.

I just sat next to a girl named Jessie and prayed that dinner would be here soon.

I scraped a pice of chicken off my plate into the flames and went to go sit back at the Hermes table.

I couldn't get over the fact that I could choose whatever drink I wanted by just saying it to the goblet. 

I was about to put another spoonful of jello into my mouth as I heard a thunderous sound behind me. I jumped from my seat as the rest of kids did. I ran a safe distance away from the cafeteria area to the mob of kids readying the weapons that seemed to have appeared on a table in front of us. I just stuck my hand into the pile of weapons ,in a very stupid manner considering there were blades in the pile, and grabbed something. I pulled it out of the pile and examined it. It was a bow.

Nothing by silence haunted us for ten minutes. The suspense was on the rise. My ankles were starting to itch from the long grass. Just as I had moved my foot to relieve it from the uncomfortable position it was once in, a tree fell and crushed the tables, sending rocks and debris into the air. The instant it hit the ground the area caught on fire. Smoke clogged my lungs. Coughing was now the only thing you could here. I could barely look up without wanting to gouge my eyes out. The smoke was stinging so badly.

The Poseidon kids rushed forward using their voodoo magic or whatever to summon water to put out the fire. Water from the nearby pond flew into the air and crashed down on the fire. Though the fire should have been dying down, it seemed enraged by the fact we wanted nothing to do with it and grew to a larger size until more trees were turned to ashes.

But the fight wasn't over yet...
