Chapter 4: Welcome to the Hermes Cabin
I wasn't exactly sure where I would be staying until my Godly Parent claimed me, but Mckenzie must have read my mind because she stated that I would be staying in the Hermes cabin. Great, I thought. Out of all the cabins I get to spend the night with the thieves and the pranksters.
Mckenzie must have seen the worry on my face because she said, "Don't worry you'll like the Hermes cabin. Just make sure you watch out for pranks and keep an eye on your things."
I nodded and followed her to the cabin, she opened the door and I stepped into the Hermes cabin.
The cabin was nice and it would definitely be cozy, but it wasn't somewhere I wanted to spend the rest of summer or life for that matter in. There weren't that many people, but only a few bunks were left. I immediately took the one farthest from the door.
"Hey Mckenzie. We got a new cabin mate?" A boy asked. He looked about my age and had sandy blond hair that went down to right above his ears, he had blue eyes that seemed friendly enough, but held the mischievous gleam all the kids in the cabin had. He wore a camouflage T-shirt and jeans; a sword was tucked in his sheath, the gleaming golden handle shinning in the sunlight. He grinned at Mckenzie, who blushed. I smiled the boy was cute, but I thought Nico was cuter.
Stop, I thought to myself. You don't like him. I mean you're only 12. Mckenzie is older then you, she's 13!
I glanced towards Nico, he was standing uncomfortably in the door way, but when he saw me he flashed me a grin, his eyes seeming to light up from their normal dull attitude. I blushed and turned away.
Out of the corner of my eye I saw him frown and look back at Mckenzie, I did too and saw her talking to the sandy haired kid.
"Hey Logan," She said simply. "Actually she's undetermined." A few groans followed the statement, and I glared at them. I wasn't that bad.
"It's okay, right guys? That's what this cabin is for, besides she looks almost 13. Am I right?" He asked turning to me.
I nodded, "two weeks, in September."
Logan nodded, "well then you get to stay here at least till then. Then you'll be claimed. Oh by the way I'm Logan." He stuck out his hand and I took it.
"Kyja," I replied. Making sure to let go of his hand, I didn't want a repeat of what I did with Nico.
"Well bye, guys," Mckenzie said looking around. She stopped to look at me, "You know where to find me. The Aphrodite cabin." She smiled kindly and turned towards the door. She didn't seem that bad, but she still seemed a little girly and there was no way I would go to the Aphrodite cabin, it looked like the type of place where I would get ambushed with make-up. Plus it was pink.
"Bye, see ya later Mckenzie," Logan said waving.
A boy wolf-whistled from the back of the cabin and Logan yelled, "Oh shut-up Mark."
I giggled at the boy, Mark's comment and the glare Logan was giving him. The both looked at me surprised which only caused me to laugh harder. Finally I got the whole cabin laughing, eventually Logan and Mark even joined in. Then a new laugh joined the chorus and every one stopped and looked to see Nico laughing.
Logan blinked like he couldn't believe what he was seeing; Mark pinched himself and muttered something that sounded like, "I need to wake up." I just stood there, did Nico really not laugh enough that it was amazing when he did.
I watched him walk away as soon as he did, Logan looked at me and asked, "How did you do that? Nico, he never smiles."
I shrugged, "I don't see why, he's really nice."
Again Logan blinked, "You know he's a son of Hades right?"
I nodded, "Why?"
"Nothing," Logan said, but his eyes said otherwise. His eyes were afraid, afraid of the son of death, but I didn't care. Nico was my friend and nothing would change that.
"Well everybody," Logan finally said, eyeing me carefully. "Let's get to training, we have captured the flag tomorrow and Kyja needs a knife."
I looked at my claw and held it in my hand the way I would a knife, then I looked up at Logan and said, "I already have one."
He glanced nervously at my claw, eyeing the pitch black surface and then asked, "Are you sure?"
I nodded and said, "This is my weapon and I won't use anything else."
Logan sighed and nodded, "Okay then Hermes fall in, were going to train."
I took my place at the end of the line and followed them. I needed as much training as I could get, because I knew I had to save Percy.
Okay People I'm Sorry to those who don't like my whole Nico/OC thing, but trust me it will make sense later. (It has something to do with him being a son of Hades)
