"I'm really bored, " Kayla announced, falling backwards onto her bed. Will rolled his eyes at her and sat down on the sofa.
"You're so dramatic" Will replied, stretching. Kayla mocked him as Austin got out his saxophone, laughing. For a few moments, the cabin was calm; the only noise being Austin playing the saxophone. Kayla hummed along under her breath before being glared at by Austin.

Sighing, she got up from her bed. She picked up a random rubber ball and began to play with it. Kayla threw it against the wall and caught it when she got an amazing idea. Turning on her heel, she grinned at her brothers. Austin stopped playing and eyed her suspiciously. Will, hearing the silence, glanced up and narrowed his eyes at Kayla.
"What?" Kayla exclaimed, grinning wildly.
"You look like you're planning something, " Austin replied, carefully putting his saxophone away. Kayla shrugged and smiled.

"Hey, Will, " she said. "Have you ever heard the sound of a rubber ball breaking a window?" Kayla began to casually play with the ball in her hands.
"No..." Will's voice trailed off with uncertainty.
"Would you like to?" Kayla asked enthusiastically.
"Don't you even-" Will's voice was cut off by the sound of glass shattering. Kayla turned to face her brothers, her hands empty.
"Oops, " she grinned sheepishly. Will clenched his fists and took a deep breath.

"Kayla, why did you think that would be a good idea?" He asked, picked up the larger pieces of glass.
"Bold of you to assume she knows the answer to that, " Austin knelt next to his brother and helped him.
"I told you I was bored, " Kayla admitted. She turned to walk out of the cabin.
"Kayla, aren't you going to help?" Will said.
"Uh, yeah, " Kayla replied. "I'm going to ask the Hephaestus cabin to fix the window. Duh, " She turned and walked out the cabin. Will turned to Austin, who shrugged.
