We reached the Mess Hall and sat down at the Hermes table. On the table was a basket full of fresh bread and scattered on the table was jelly, peanut butter, regular butter, cheese, and nutella. I sat next to Connor and a large, hispanic boy with black hair and brown eyes.

"Hey, I'm Brooklyn." I introduced myself. Make friends in the beginning. It makes everything easier.

"Chris. Rodriguez." I smiled at him, and he smiled back, but that was it. Okay, fine then.

"City Girl! Connor helped you get here?" I looked across the table and saw that Luke had taken the seat in front of me.

"Yeah."

"Did you just call her City Girl?" Conner asked Luke.

"Yeah. Why?" Luke was confused.

"Cause that's my nickname for her."

"Since when?"

"Since I met her."

"I met her before you."

"Your point?"

"I also came up with her nickname when I met her."

"Your point?"

"I came up with it first."

Boys. What can I say. "Okay, seriously guys, does it really matter who came up with it first?"

"Yes!" Both Luke and Connor said simultaneously- Luke, jokingly, and Connor, seriously.

"Well in that case, I give the copyright rights of my nickname to…" Luke and some other Hermes kids was laughing. Connor was looking at me with a look that said "Pick me!"

"Hey, City Girl!" I turned around to see Noah walking (what do you call goat-walking?) towards me.

"Noah!"

"NOOOOOO! City Girl, how could you do this to me!" Connor whined.

"Did anyone tell you you are annoying?" I smirked.

"Nope." Connor gave me a big goofy grin.

"Then I get copyright rights on branding you one of the most annoying people I ever met!"

"Who was the annoyingest?"

"Annoyingest isn't a word, bird-brain!" A blonde-haired, tall, fit, girl commented as she passed by our table.

"Who's that?" I asked.

"Annabeth Chase. Daughter of Athena." Luke looked over to where Annabeth sat. I shrug my shoulders, and turn back to a very animated (and annoying but in a good way) conversation.

After an...eventful breakfast, Luke lead us back to the Cabin for a quick cleanup.

"Hey Luke." I walked over to him. He turned to face me.

"Yeah? What's up?"

"I don't exactly have anything to clean, because everything I have is at home. So I was wondering if I could go to the camp store? To get a couple things?" I looked at him with a hopeful look, trying to convince him to let me go.

"Yeah, sure. Just don't get lost." He then proceeded to tell me the directions. When he finished, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a couple of deformed penny's (they were also gold.) "These are drachma's, the demigod currency. Pay for your stuff with them."

"But I won't be able to pay you back." I looked at this guy as if saying "Are you for real?!"

"Yeah, don't worry about it!

"Thanks!" I smiled at him and left the cabin. It's strange. People are actually nice here. Well, I'm not counting Clarisse and the Ares cabin, but still. Luke and Connor, I would consider them… friends. People I've known for less than 2 days are closer than anyone has ever been. Maybe I will like it here…

A/N: So Brooklyn mingled with the Hermes cabin. And capture the flag is tomorrow…

Wonder what is going to happen?
