Stealin' Fashion (OPEN)

[Kevin Cook]

Kevin was not one to use his Hermes thievery skills. However, there were times that it called for it, like now: he was in needed of a new shirt. Now, he really didn't need a new shirt, per say, but he couldn't wear his favorite flannel shirt anymore after an Ares kid challenged him to a duel and Kevin lost badly. This was the only justifiable reason why Kevin was sneaking behind the cabins making his way towards the pink one.

Aphrodites had more clothes than what they knew what to do with. All he needed was to snag one flannel shirt. He doubt anybody would miss it. He stopped behind the Aphrodite cabin and ducked into a bush. He checked to make sure that nobody was around to notice him before he got up to peer into the window of the cabin. It was their bathroom, but nobody was in it. And nobody should have been in the cabin either, since the Aphrodite cabin was supposed to be at the archery range.

Kevin smirked a bit as he reached up and started getting the window unlatched and slowly sliding it up.

[Ebonie Hazle]

Ebonie screamed and ran as fast as she could away from the Ares cabin. Those. Kids. Were. Mean! She had just been wanted to say hello to somebody, anybody and she chose the wrong place. As soon as she got a safe distance away she back flipped behind a bush, sadly she knocked right into some guy trying to open a window. "Hey!" She called loudly before straightening herself out and turning to face him. Great. Another Demi-God. They're all Demi-Gods, obviously. She frowned and raised an eyebrow at him, "This was going to be my hiding place." She tried to sound brave.

[Kevin Cook]

Kevin missed the scream that seemed to echo through camp. Then again, with him being one of the Ares' favorite target, he seemed to phase out screams anyway. He was too focused on opening that window as quietly as possible that he didn't notice the girl until she hit him. Kevin was blindsided as he stumbled to the side and let go of the window which made a loud crashing sound as it slammed shut. He swore underneath his breath as he looked over at the intruder intruding on his intruding.

He hadn't seen her around before, but that wasn't anything new. Lots of new campers came in all the time, but he would think he would notice a cutie like her. A cutie that was trying to be brave. He cocked an eyebrow at the brunette before a slight smirk crept onto his face. "Well, your hiding place is about to be the scene of a crime." He nodded his head towards the window. "I was about to go in there before you decided to bump into me." The smirk grew a little bigger as an idea popped into his head. "So you either run away forgetting you ever saw me or help me with my little heist. What do you say?"

[Ebonie Hazle]

"So... that's not your cabin then?" She asked slowly. Of course it's not you idiot, why would he use the window if it was?She chastised herself for asking such a stupid question. As his smirk grew wider she knew he was getting a crazy idea, and she would probably agree to it. When the idea was presented she nodded, "I'll help you, why not? It's not like I have many enemies yet... or friends." She shrugged.

She glanced over the bushes to the Ares cabin, they seemed to have decided that she was beneath his notice at this point. She let out a sigh of release and turned to her new partner in crime. "So, what's the plan?"

[Kevin Cook]

"Do you really think that pink is my color?" Kevin asked with a slight chuckle as he observed the girl. She definitely was new to camp; she still had that... freshness about her. And that freshness made her pretty dang cute. He was expecting her to run the other way and forgot all she saw, but he couldn't help but look amused when she accepted the position as his partner in crime.

"The plan..." he said as he licked his lips a bit as he glanced towards the window. "We're going to sneak through that window into the cabin without being caught." He chuckled a bit as he leaned towards her. "And do you like clothes? Because you're going to stumble upon the Cave of Wonderful Clothing. I know what I need, but you're welcome to what you want without taking too much." He looked at him as he cocked his eyebrow a little higher. "So you're still in?"

[Ebonie Hazle]

"No, I guess pink doesn't really suit you. Put you could probably manage it if you wanted to." She said matter of factly. It was true, most people could pull of pink if they really tried. What were they doing? Discussing fashion? No, he was obviously joking around. She needed to get better at the whole joking thing. She decided she'd play a game herself and figure out who his Godly parent was.

She nodded as he explained the plan with the window. It seemed simple enough but, "Are any of the campers in there who live here?" She asked. He leaned in towards her and she leaned away, habit. "Uuuh, yeah. I guess I like clothes. Might not take anything though." She said slowly. All of this to steal some random campers clothes? Then a light bulb seemed to go off in her head. "This is the Aphrodite cabin, isn't it?" She mentally facepalmed herself. "Yes, i'm still in. What can these kids do to hurt me?" She smirked too.

[Kevin Cook]

"They shouldn't be," Kevin said as he tried to confirm his answer by peeking into the bathroom window. Of course, this didn't give him much of an answer. "They should be in the archery range if they stick to their schedule today." Now that the girl was here with him, he was starting to second guess his plan. He hadn't really thought about what would happen if one of the campers stayed home stick. That was a risk he had to take, he guessed. "But they didn't check on the window when it slammed shut, so we're good." He chuckled a bit as his confidence grew.

He looked over at the girl when he asked if this was the Aphrodite cabin. "You really are new, aren't you? Probably didn't study Greek mythology in school either." He glanced around before standing back up to open the window when her next question stopped him. He shrugged a bit. "Not much, unless you don't like getting glitter thrown at you." He opened up the window and made sure that it stayed open before he hoisted himself in silently and turning around to lend his partner in crime a hand.

[Ebonie Hazle]

"Schedule? Seems like a useful thing to know as a thief. How do you get your hands on those?" She decided she needed to know the Ares cabin schedule, and needed to stay away from them as much as possible. Ebonie had gotten on their bad side because she wouldn't tel them who her 'Godly parent' was. Little did they know she didn't even have one. She was going to have to come up with a story pretty quick if she wanted to blend in around here. So far she hadn't thought of any good ideas. "Yeah, that makes sense. They would've come running at such a loud noise. Or just thought that someone was peeking on them, which they wouldn't mind," she guessed.

"Actually Greek mythology is the only thing I really did study," and it was true. The stories had distracted her from her messed up mob boss family life. She shuddered at the thought and was brought back to reality by him climbing in the window. She was a quite a bit shorter than him so she was grateful when he offered his hand, she took it and climbed into the window behind him, but the smell of perfume almost made her want to climb back out. "That is awful," she exclaimed, using her free hand to plug her nose.

[Kevin Cook]

"It's posted up in the Big House and the cabin leaders happen to have a copy on them." Kevin shrugged a bit. He managed to nab his copy from Marius before he left on his quest. He doubt his cabin leader would miss it too much. Kevin glanced around the bathroom as he scrunched up his face a bit. There was potpourri in little bowls all over the place along with bottles of perfume cluttering the counter. It reeked and his companion happened to point it out. "Wait until you see the rest of the cabin," he muttered as he went to the door and cracked it open.

He peeked outside before completely pushing the door open. The stink of perfume and potpourri was lingering in the air, but with the bigger space it was more spread out. "And welcome to the mother-load of clothing." He smirked to himself as he went to a bed he assumed was a guy's and started shuffling around in the drawers.

[Ebonie Hazle]

"Oh, that's cool. Are you a cabin leader?" She asked. Ebonie tried to avoid knocking over any of the hundreds of perfume bottles as she followed him out of the room. Ebonie groaned, "can't wait."

As the door was pushed open, Ebonie froze in amazement. She had never seen so many... clothes. There was an entire wall dedicated to shoes alone. She let her jaw drop as she stepped into the room behind Kevin. She watched him search through a guys clothes and walked over to the shoe wall. She touched a few pairs of shoes on the tip and then began to laugh. She turned to face him, "I'm pretty sure my mother had every single pair on this shelf." Out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of some more Mexican styles. She walked over and picked up an incredible well knitted poncho and stared.

She thought back to her lesson with the Oracle this morning. It had made some freaky 'guesses' about her past. She set the poncho down and walked over to Kevin, sitting on the bed beside where he worked, "found anything you like?"

[Kevin Cook]

"Cabin leader?" Kevin snickered a bit as he shook his head. "Not quite... But maybe soon." Him and the other counselors were taking bets and doing contests to determine who would be the next cabin leader if Marius didn't come back alive. At that moment, Kevin was a close second, but he was going to change that soon.

He glanced over his shoulder as he smirked at his companion as she looked at amazement around the room. "I think we can easily check off the list that you're not an Aphrodite," he said with a chuckle as he returned back to the cloths. He had stumbled across someone who had a thing for muscle shirts that made Kevin cringe. He quickly closed the drawers and went to another dresser. "So was your mother an Aphrodite then? Then what does that make you?"

Kevin focused on getting his plaid shirt and was not finding anything so far in this set of drawers. "Nothing so far," he muttered as he opened a new drawer and his eyes widened. "Hello sweet mama," he said as he pulled out a plaid shirt that was almost an exact replica of the one the Ares kids destroyed.

[Ebonie Hazle]

"Oh," Ebonie suddenly realized she had not idea how you became a cabin leader. Did that mean that this kid would have to... kill the current one? She decided not to ask but she was sure her face was getting pale. She tried to subtly move a little farther away from him. She was alone in the cabin with a possible murderer after all. Not too mention the way to talked with his eyebrows was sort of freaking her out.

He then crossed over to another drawer and she let herself relax a little. Though, that smirk he gave her seemed friendly. She needed to stop judging these people so much. She needed to stop thinking that everyone was trying to hurt her, but that was a difficult thing to do. She sighed and stood up to follow him as he searched the room. "Definitely not Aphrodite. My parents weren't Demi-Gods either." He was going to figure out her secret too. Maybe she could confide in him about how freaky it was talking to the current Oracle, she was such an old lady and she just sat around in that attic. But she was almost ready to go, which meant Ebonie was about to take Delphi all for herself. Yaaaaaay.

Ebonie started to laugh, "I didn't know you were looking for a specific shirt this whole time!" She exclaimed.

[Kevin Cook]

Kevin paused for a minute when his companion mentioned she and her parents weren't a demigod. He glanced over at her before he gave her a once over with his eyebrows raised. "And you don't have goat legs..." he muttered underneath his breath before he looked up at her. "Now how in the Hades did you get here then? Even mortals who can see through the mist can't get past camp borders... Is Chiron trying to do that dumb exchange again?" That horse man was always trying to pull something stupid in Kevin's opinion.

Kevin softly fingered the plaid shirt that he had in his hands as he tried to figure out her secret. When she pointed out the shirt, he chuckled a bit as he stood up straight to put it on. "I was hoping for something similar, but I'm glad someone had the exact one." He put it on over his shirt as he mumbled, "The Ares cabin is so mean to my wardrobe. He glanced over at the door as he shut the drawer. "We probably need to get going before someone walks in and finds us... And I prefer not to have another nice chat with Chiron."

[Ebonie Hazle]

Ebonie shook her head and put her hands up in surrender, "No, no! No exchange! Well, sort of. You know that old lady who lives in the attic and bakes a lot of cookies?" She shook her head sighed, "I'm learning stuff from her-weird stuff- but i'm with her every morning for a few hours." She Shrugged. She hoped he wasn't freaking out inside as much as she was. She was freaking out every second of every day and she had to pretend like nothing was wrong. But for some reason she knew all this craziness was right, in a way.

"The Ares cabin! Yes, I want that camp schedule so I can avoid them. They've turned the game of 'who is her Godly parent' into 'let's make up Godly parents to insult her.' It's getting old." She walked towards him to help him pull the shirt the rest of the way down his chest and nodded, "looks good. Let's go." She was not anxious so see Chiron either.

[Kevin Cook]

Kevin raised his eyebrows as the girl when she said Chiron wasn't putting her through an exchange. "Then why the Hades are you here?" he asked before she went on about what was going on in the Attic. He knitted his eyebrows together as the pieces were slowly falling into place. "Wait? You're hanging out with the Oracle?" He chuckled a bit as he relaxed against a bunk bed. His eyes slowly scanned her body as a slight smirk crept onto his lips. "It was about time we got a cutie for an Oracle. That old hag needed to go."

He couldn't help but chuckle when she told him of how the Ares cabin were also tormenting her. "Well, that means we have something in common then." He glanced at the door as his gut went on alert. They were making themselves too at home and he had a feeling someone was going to walk in at any minute. "C'mon," he said as he walked over to grab her arm and steered her back to the bathroom where they had their escape route.
