Luci P.O.V
I'd just like to say that today did NOT go how I thought it would.
Okay let me start from the beginning like- the very beginning. My name is Lucinda, I was born December 21- yeah the winter solstice. Pretty ironic me bringing a daughter of Khione, though I don't really like to talk about that if a I can avoid it. Yeah forgot to mention, I'm a demigod, offspring of a Greek god/ goddess and a mortal, weird huh? I have straight, dark brown, waist length hair and coffee brown eyes. I can control snow and ice and sometimes make snow storms, though it tires me out and I basically pass out for 3 days when it happens, everyone has their limits, even half gods with frost powers.
I see my self as quite a calm person most of the time, yet I get stressed easy and me when I'm stressed? Well not a pretty picture.
But really lets get to the real interesting part huh? Well it all started as a normal day at the day of camp, at least as normal as a camp full of power godlings can get...

"-And then he has the nerve, the audacity to say that! Of all the all the campers I have to get partnered up with that-that- I don't even have words to describe how ignorant he is!" A blonde haired girl protested as she paced angrily across the floor of the forge.
The blonde haired girl stomping about is my best friend, her Name is Isabelle Romerez, daughter of Hephaestus and she is a bit upset. See the reason she was all worked up was because she had gotten partnered up for the chariot race with her rival Ryder Richardson, a very cocky son of Apollo of whom she despised . She stopped and looked at me for a second her eyes flaming with an un-tamed fury.
I watched her as she raged around. She was wearing cameo-print tights and camp half blood T-shirt cut like a tank top. She had her dirty blonde hair pulled back into a loose bun with her choppy bangs hanging down over her forehead and framing her face. She had black, laced up, steel toe boots and leather gloves with rounded bronze studs on them.
"I can't believe he said that! 'I'll work out the details and you just try and stay out of the way Tinkerbell. ' And I mean Tinkerbell really!? What is that even suppose to mean!" She asked me furiously.
.
"Well your a daughter of Hephaestus and when you work with machines you 'tinker' right? Plus your name is Isabelle, hence the 'Bell' part." I said trying to be helpful though it didn't seem to help as much I though it might."So what your saying is he's making fun of me?" Se replied while she crossed her arms in front of her, her green eyes blazing with irritation.
See, I really wanted to say yes but I knew that would just set her off even more so I just decided on playing the 'I told you so card'.
"See this is why I didn't sign up for the race, I knew if you couldn't chose your partners then it would be a big mess. but now you're into it so you can't quit, you should've just listened to me when I told you not to enter." I replied.
She rolled her eyes and slumped down on the bench next to me, rubbing her temples in exasperation, all the fight gone out of her.
"I know, I know I just thought it might be fun you know? Building is my thing! I had me heart set on building a kick ass battle chariot and now its gotten all spoiled by him having to be my partner and everything."
I smiled reassuringly and placed my hand on her shoulder.
"C'mon it will be ok, maybe you can try compromise with him somehow? Just keep you calm and try and to talk to him. Anyways we have cabin inspections to do, we get to go around and judge cabins and you can give Apollo cabin a big ol' zero if its messy!" I said warmly as I helped her to her feet.
"Yeah I guess that would cheer me up." She replied as she rolled her eyes and grabbed the clip boards off the table and handed me one as we headed out the door.
Since we have so many new cabins at camp for the minor gods and goddess's we have more then just 2 people go around and do cabin inspections. Today we were just one of many 'lucky' campers that get to do cabin inspections. We split ourselves up between the cabins. Isabelle took 1-6. I took 7-12. Isabelle was slightly irritated that she didn't, in fact get to judge Apollo's cabin.
"Hey what about cabin 13?" Isabelle asked gesturing to a cabin to the side.
Cabin 13, hm well how do I explain it other than..creepy? Cabin 13 is a tall, ominous building made completely out of solid obsidian, with heavy columns, there was no windows and the only source of light visible are torches with green fire. I wouldn't be the first to say that it gave you shivers.
"Um ill do it, it cant be that bad right?" I replied trying to sound convincing but it came out as more of a question.
'Uh- yeah, ill meet you back here in an hour then don't be late!" She said as she ran off.
I walked off and did cabins 7-12 most of them getting about 4 I gave Hephaestus cabin a 3 and I was being pretty generous too, Isabelle and her cabin mates really have to learn to pick up there tools when there done with them. Hermes cabin ranked there usual 1 standard, and I also gave Apollo cabin a 4, even though everything was in perfect condition, I don't think Isabelle would like it if I gave them full marks.
I gulped and stepped in front of the last cabin on my list. Cabin 13. I shakily walked over and stood in front of the door my hand raised ready to knock on the door. Its not like its different from any other cabin right? it cant be that bad I sure, I told myself as I knock hesitantly on the black wooden door with a skull above the frame.
