Liam

After that saddening, very depressing speech, I went of to cabin 9, the Hephaestus cabin.

I stared when I got inside, bolts and lock's were everywhere it was amazing place, I could imagine myself in here forever.

Suddenly I saw a boy on clutches come up to me "Welcome to Cabin Nine, I'm Jacob, you can meet our counsellor soon".

We walked to the forge, it was huge everyone was making things and I saw a group of people sitting down with a boy with elvish feature's standing up, he was the centre of the attention and was loudly joking around, he was around 18 or 19.

"Leo, we've got a new kid" Jakob yelled, the elvish boy looked up and ran to us.

"Hi, what's your name?" Leo asked.

"Liam" I said, he surprised me and gave me a hug instead of a hand shake, I was even more surprised how warm he was, it was like his body was radiating heat.

At the look of my surprise, Leo grinned sheepishly "Uh sorry, I'm always like that, I'm can control fire, I'm a special boy"

Jakob snorted "You keep telling your self that"

Leo laughed and grinned as he looked me up and down.

"So what you good at?" Leo asked.

"Do you prefer building or working with wire's, stuff like that?"

I said "Wire's" Quickly with the fact building things I tended to forget my power's..

The thing is I have a secret, I'm strong like really strong, I've lifted a ladder up before with one hand.
I'm a freak, I hoped it would have a god parent who had super strength as one of there ability's, no such luck.

I never wanted to draw any attention to myself so I didn't use my super strength much and then I started to fiddle around with some wires that I found lying in the middle of the cabin, I hoped no one was using them and set to work randomly.

Leo came to see how I was doing "Nice lighter mate, although you could improve it by..."

He pointed to three wire's and I reconnected them somewhere else, just as Leo said, the disk shined a brighter light than before and started to change colours.

"How did you work that out?" I asked amazed, I herd changing colours of things light wise through technology took hours to do.

Leo shrugged "I guessed"

Man I didn't think much of Leo on first sight, not on what he looked like, it was the fact how he joked about when I first saw him, I cauterised him to be the clown, the one that never gets any work done but good for a laugh as we talked I knew there was more to Leo than he let on.

"So who's the one in charge?" I asked "Jacob said I would meet the counsellor, that's the one in charge right?"

Leo smiled, he looked like he was trying not to laugh.

"That's right" he said.

"So when do I get to meet him or her?"I asked.

Leo didn't answer for a while checking over my handy work, then looked up at me, his eyes sparkling with amusement, he held up his hand and a flame danced on his finger tips

"And what make you so sure you're not talking to him?" Leo asked slyly.
