The first thing we had that day was sword fighting and Percy was there helping. "Today for our new campers, you will learn the basics of sword fighting and I know most of you already know how to, but remember we have new campers here!", said Percy enthusiastically. He pulled out a pen? How was he going to fight with a pen! Then he pulled the cap,of it to reveal a sword. He then had us each pick up a training sword to practice with. Sword fighting was hard and after a few hours we were all tired and sweating. I saw Percy dump a bucket of water on him. It looked good, but didn't trust water apart from the water I drank and used to brush my teeth with. Instead I fanned myself off and felt my fatigue go away. I saw that Laurence also thought it was a good idea to dump water on himself and did the same thing. "So who would like to practice fight with me?", asked Percy. No one was willing to, but Laurence raised his hand. Being new to sword fighting Laurence should have been taken down in a matter of seconds, but actually was able to knock Percy's sword out of his hand. For a while no one spoke. I heard Percy murmur to himself something that I couldn't make out, but it was time for our next activity, archery.

On the way to archery I walked with Garrroth, Laurence, and Zane because they were my friends and the only ones in the Hermes cabin I knew. Once we had gotten there we discovered that Chiron was teaching the class. Archery was hard. I was able to get the arrow into the air, but well let's just say I was lucky not to hit anyone. Laurence, Garroth, and Zane weren't having it any better than I was. Chiron said that not everyone is as good as the Apollo cabin and the hunters of Artemis at archery. Oh the hunters of Artemis is a group of girls that follow Artemis and are the only ones to use her cabin because she is one of the maiden goddesses.

"Don't worry, you're not that bad at archery, you're better than Percy at least!", said Chiron trying to cheer me up. What was that even supposed to mean. Well it probably meant that Apollo wasn't my dad. So far I had only done two activities and I wasn't very good at either of them. I was terrible at archery and only somewhat good at sword fighting. What did that have to show? Maybe I'll be better at arts and crafts.

Ok maybe I let my hopes up too much! I was kinda bad at arts and crafts, compared to everyone else's. Mine was supposed to be a small bust of Zeus, but I got the proportions all wrong and looked really bad. I guess this means I'm not an Athena, but that wouldn't make sense at all because I had my mom, my godly parent had to be my dad!

As the day went by I still wasn't claimed yet and I matched none of the skills of the male gods,

I wasn't fast like Hermes,

I wasn't good at archery like Apollo,

I wasn't tough like Ares,

I couldn't make anything in a forge like Hephaestus

And I didn't have a way with vines like Mr. D thank goodness.

For all I knew I could just be a Hermes, Jack of all trades and master of none.

It was late so the Hermes cabin has heading to dinner at the mess hall. As we were heading there Zane was snapping his hands, I guess he was in a snappy mood. One of his snaps were really loud and it caused the ground to open up. Six skeletons jumped out, their glowing eyes fixed on me and Laurence. "What the! Make them go away!", exclaimed Zane and just as he said that the ground reopened around them and they fell in. Everyone looked at Zane and Garroth two symbols glowed above their heads, Zane had a gray skull and Garroth had a gem. Chiron who was nearby came over to announce who their parent was and we all bowed.

"Hail Zane and Garroth, sons of Hades God of the underworld!", exclaimed Chiron. 

Zane and Garroth were then directed out of the Hermes Cabin to the Hades cabin which only seemed to consist of one person. A guy standing next to me started saying things and got into an argument with Percy and Annabeth. He said things like big three children were dangerous and should not be allowed and Percy was saying that if he weren't there then he'd not have a cabin, whatever that was supposed to mean.
