I took a death breath. Chiron lead me through the door.
When my adjusted, I saw at last 20 kids sitting on their sleeping bags. They had sad expressions on their faces like than were so unloved. A boy (ew) about 17 stepped forward.
"Hi. My name is Luke," he said. He had sandy blonde hair. He smiled. I loathed it when boys tried to get me to like them because it was never going to happen. And I mean never. I would be content if I never got married.
"Hi," I forced myself to say.
"You must be Artemisia. Annabeth told me about you," Luke said. Great. I thought I could maybe trust Annabeth. Well not any more. She actually tells things to boys.
'Luke. you can probably take it form here," Chiron said to Luke. I realized that Chiron wasn't inside the cabin with me. He was right outside of the cabin door. He was to tall to get in the door. That was actually kind of funny.
"Bye Chiron," I said.
"OK let's find you a spot on the floor," Luke said as he lead me farther into the cabin.
I had to step over people and step on the ends of sleeping bags in order to get the back of the cabin. There were bunks but each one was filled.
"Here you are. you can take this spot," Luke said.
I sat down. No one was talking to me. Maybe ten minutes later, Luke came over.
"So. Whose your parent," I asked trying to be a sociable like my teachers always told me to be. 'Go be sociable Artie. Why don't you go be with your friends?'. I'm the only one in my whole school that actually understands how stupid boys are.
"Hermes. God of thieves and messenger to the gods," Luke muttered as if he wasn't happy about his father being the god of thieves.
"Who is my parent?" I asked. I have to know sooner or later. I would preferably NOT learn it from a boy, but I would take it.
"Annabeth told me had her suspicions," he muttered. He keeps muttering. I don't know why, but he needed to talk louder.
There was a horn in the background.
"it's dinner time. Come on. Fallow me," Luke said as he stuck out his hand. I guess it was to help me up. I just looked at it with disgust. "Well OK then."
The whole cabin walked out side to an outdoor pavilion. There were 12 tables, just like the cabins.
I sat down where the Hermes cabin was sitting. I barely had enough room for my hand. There were too many people at this table, yet there were empty tables.
We got through dinner, which was very uneventful. We went to cabin. Luke got me a sleeping bag and a few Camp Half-Blood T shirts. I spread my sleeping bag out on the floor.
