We're done. Hades has a cabin under ground remember? *wink wink* Of course you do don't be silly. We're full. Lukas8u is joining possible as a satyr but we can start now. Boltageman, you want to do the honors?
We're full, I'm only letting Lukas8u in. Sorry.

i looked at my watch, it read 8 o'clock so i got out of my bed. As usual the Cabin was empty, i was the only Zeus here and it was lonely, but at least i got to train with people who did not have the same powers as me. The big three kids were alone in the cabins so they trained together, and it was fun. But now it was breakfast time so i sat at my big empty table taking away a portion of my meal to give to the Gods. Then i went to sword training with Chelsea and Keira. I brought out my two swords then waited for the girls battle to end.

Keira rolled to avoid Chelsea's attack. Chelsea snapped back before she lost her balance. Keira eyed her watchfully. Chelsea lunged again from a different angle. Keira jumped back, ducked, and twisted around to position herself behind Chelsea.
Chelsea spun around. Keira lashed out quickly at Chelsea, who deflected the blow. Keira withdrew back into a defensive mode, waiting for another opening to emerge.
Chelsea feigned a high attack and knocked Keira off her feet. Keira tumbled to the ground and quickly rolled away to avoid Chelsea again. Chelsea moved in for another attack. Keira shot upward and lunged toward Chelsea. Chelsea blocked and attacked again.
Keira feigned a downward attack and jabbed toward Chelsea's torso. Chelsea dropped to the ground to avoid Keira. She swiped at Keira's legs again as she went down. Keira tumbled down again. Chelsea shot up and lunged for Keira.
As she tried to roll away, Keira quickly twisted her ring. Chelsea slowed, her eyes narrowing.
"Not," she panted. "Fair."
Keira, invisible, jumped up from the ground. "How is it now fair?" she shot back, circling Chelsea. "In a real battle, I would have this advantage..."
Keira twisted her ring again when she was behind Chelsea. Chelsea spotted her out of the corner of her eye, and moved to attack Keira. Keira placed the side of her sword against Chelsea. Chelsea froze, scowling.
"I still say that wasn't fair," she snapped.
"Perhaps not fair, but realistic," replied Keira reasonably. She turned to the sound of footsteps behind her.
"You know," said a boy's voice. "By all practical terms, that wasn't fair..."
Keira saw Chelsea smirking. Keira shrugged.
"Am I hearing an echo in here? I still say that it was realistic. You can't deny that..."
"Challenge you to a rematch tomorrow," I sighed wistfully as I shook her hand as a sign of defeat and acceptance.
"It's lunch, race you there," I smirked.
I sat down at Poseidon's table after making an offering to my father. All alone. I absolutely detested this. I was the only child of Poseidon and had to sit alone and resort to tapping morse code to Keira who's table was the nearest to mine.
Chiron came onto the stage, "This Friday is the game of Capture the Flag, alliances are yet to be made."
We all cheered.
I planned to join Athena for this game.

** Okay - from what you've posted I'm going on under the impression that Chelsea and Keira are friend-ish people? That okay?
Keira
Keira smiled when she heard Chrion's announcement. She liked Capture the Flag. Quite a bit, actually...
Keira glanced at Chelsea, who mouthed 'Athena' to Keira. Keira nodded, and popped a tomato in her mouth. She chewed it slowly.
The only reason Keira liked capture the flag was because of the strategy behind it. She also was renoun for her ability to get the other team's flag. It came down to Keira's ability to dodge attacks. On the offensive side, Keira was of normal talent. Keira could avoid an opponent's blows with exceptional talent, however. This helped her make a beeline for the opposing team's flag.
I quickly scarfed down my lunch. It was Friday today and i just remembered i had to chose between Athena and Ares for the game. I knew Chelsea would be with Athena and Keira with Ares. So i had to think which one to fight with. I eventually flipped a coin to see, and went with Ares. It would not be fair for Athena but with three of us we had to favor one side. then after i ate i went to the Ares gave them a Nod and then to Athena's a shook my head. Then before i felt there gaze left for the training grounds.
I picked out a metal dummy i used for lightning training then began to fight. Using my twin blades i brought down a blast of lightning that went through my blades and hit the dummy. It left a dent, and i screamed out slightly. Then i tried again and again, but i couldn't get a hole in one hit. I usually could, but today i was off. But i just got bored after a bit and turned my swords back to the rope bracelet they were. * i changed what they appeared as*. Then i ran to the camp store. As usual a group of Hermie's kids ran it and i was able to get my ice tea like i asked for. Then i checked my watch, soon the night would come and bring the game. I was ready to win this and so i went to Keira's cabin under the volley ball court to discuss a bit of strategy.

I saw the Ares kids bickering and the sighed. I didn't want to be here, this was th bone head guild. And with that i left writing a note which i left for them. Then i strode over the Athena cabin.
"is it okay if i join you guys, the ares are real bone heads" i asked
Lizzie the head of the Athena cabin began to think about this. Then she smiled. "of course,all three of the big three in this group would be a great group."
"cool" i said and sat down. "what's the plan"
