"Pass me my stick, Marie!" Lee yelled. Marie paused mid-conversation with Austin and Louis and threw Lee's drum sticks over. Lee caught Will's eye and grinned. Their cabin was filling up quite nicely, so his dream of finally having a band would be realised. Will was happy for him, but it hurt a little to see how many siblings he had- and around his age too. He loved all of them, that was true, but the fact that his mother had been one of Apollo's conquests was a little too much for him to stomach. Still, he wouldn't lose any of them for the world.
"We've got a sister over here!" The door swung open, letting in a stream of light as well as Michael and a new girl. Will had seen her last summer, but she had been in the Hermes cabin the whole time. Her hair hung in dark braids and she had a pack of cigarettes peaking out of her shorts pocket. "This is Kayla." Michael announced, shutting the door behind him.
The rest of the cabin called out names and introductions as the girl grinned and settled down on one of the empty beds. Will noticed the guitar strung across the girl's back as she pulled it off.
"You play?"
"Obviously." She laughed as she set it on the bed. "Do any of you guys play? Anything?" She grinned as she leaned against the wall.
Lee took a deep breath and held up his drumsticks. Everyone groaned. "We all do! And since we finally have someone who does electric..." He paused, waiting for a response. Will snickered as everyone kept quiet. "Ah fuck it, we can finally have a band!"
Everyone burst into a round of applause, because they actually liked the idea.
"I'll start!" Louis shouted as he stood up and started to sing, "Wildcats in the house!"
The whole cabin erupted into a series of boos and flung pillows at the boy who sat down in surrender.
"Whatever, man," Lee chortled, holding up a sheaf of papers and tossing one of them at each of his half-siblings. "Learn this shit, you hos, we'll be playing it soon."
"Country roads?" Will looked up.
"For you, country boy." Lee winked.
"I actually like this song." Will laughed.
"Well, whatever it takes to start us off." Michael said. "Children of the Sun, everybody!"
