The next day at camp Ally is cornered by Clarisse, and the Nemesis daughter glares at her, " I am so not in the mood for this. "
" You're the new camper, you have to go through initiation. "
" I'd like to see you try and make me, girlfriend. Where I'm standing, you ain't got the chops enough to get the job done, so eith'ah step up or step off, ya got that. " Ally snaps.
" Ohh, the new girl thinks she's all that. "
" Oh, shove off, I'll be going on my way now. " Ally states and steps around Clarisse. Clarisse grabs her arm and Ally instantly tosses her and drops down into a battle stance.
Clarisse grins ferally, " So, the newbie's got game. "
Ally smirks back, she was not about to lose to this girl, she'd faced scarier things at home. Hell, NYC thugs were scarier than this girl. Clarisse charges and Ally leaps into the air and performs a full twist to be facing Clarisse's back and launches into a snap kick that sends Clarisse sprawling. By this time Jason has come to investigate and sees Ally send Clarisse packing. " Nice, where'd you learn how to do that, Ally? "
" My dad paid for all sorts of lessons, knowing that I would need all sorts of skills in order to survive in life. I could have just shadow traveled away from her, but this chica needs to learn some respect. " Ally replies.
" Gee, you must have a dad who loves you. " Jason says.
" He does, very much so. " Ally says and stretches.
Jason takes her on a tour of the camp and invite her to his table for breakfast. Ally gives an offering to her mother and then sits down, " Sixty half-brothers, what in the name of Hades did I do to deserve that. I mean seriously, none of them know how to act with a girl in the cabin now, except Evan, I have him well trained and he's going to get the others trained up as well. "
" You act like their disobedient puppies. "
" I've discovered that most males are like puppies. " Ally quips.
" Such a high estimation you have of my gender. " Jason says.
" I said most, you and Nico are exceptions to that rule. " Ally says.
" All right, but still, how do you like it here so far, aside from the brothers thing? "
" I'll let you know better after a week. " Ally says.
" That's cool, you up for a spar later. " Jason asks.
" What weapon? " Ally asks immediately.
" Swords. You in? "
" Oh, I am so there, I haven't gotten any decent sword practice since Evan came here. " Ally says.
Nico wanders over just then, " I heard about how you schooled Clarisse, a daughter of Ares, nice job, though you've made an enemy of her now. "
Ally shrugs, " You think I care, Nico. I've faced tougher punks than her in a street fight. "
Nico sighs as Jason nods for him to sit down, " Girl, what am I going to do with you? If the monsters don't' kill you then the normal street punks will. "
" Such little faith in my skill, Nico, you wound me. " Ally says, smiling.
" I seriously think you would just walk up to Cerberus and pet him, like he was a normal dog. " Nico says, shaking his head at her.
" He is, he just has three heads. " Ally says.
Nico just laughs, " Is it any wonder I started dating you? You're just the right brand of insane, I like it. "
Jason shakes his head at the two of them, " I shudder to think of what any kid of yours is going to be like? Probably will have an insanely warped sense of humor and you two will have no one to blame except yourselves for how seriously disturbed your child or children end up. "
" Hurtful, Jason. " Ally says.
After that they head to their days activities, Nico tagging along with the Nemesis cabin, seeing as how he was the only one in his cabin.
