Allen and Annabeth became good friends, she helped him learn the sword and even helped with his lack of education. While he would provide her his Cabin and laboratory and his powers so she could experiment and research in peace. They developed around two poisons effective against monsters with strong regeneration. Though it took a long time to even create a bottle of it.
Dan, Pete and James would invite both sometimes to hang out in the woods or going swimming with nymph's. All in all he made great progress in everything and had a ton of fun. But one day while both Annabeth and he were training, they could hear some people talking about a wounded boy and a Satyr arriving. The Boy seemingly defeated a Minotaur, a horn being his trophy.
"What do you think?" Annabeth asked as she heard the Rumors. "Probably a lucky strike, otherwise i see no other way, after all you were the one who thought me, how hard defeating a Minotaur can be." Allen said and readied his shield as Annabeth strikes at him with her sword. "I thought the same." She stated and Allen blocked the strike.
"Tomorrow is a Capture the Flag game, the Hermes Cabin, Apollo Cabin together with the Athena's cabin, against the Ares, Hephaestus and the rest of cabins. Only your Cabin has yet to choose a side, do you want to join our side?" Annabeth asked and made some puppy eyes. "Sigh, i have no other chance right?" Allen asked and she grinned. So he agreed and Annabeth hugged him.
"We are so going to win and shove it into the Ares Cabins face!" Annabeth said happily. "Seems like we are to late, so we need to beat up Allen after all tomorrow." Dan said as he came over with Pete and James. "Or maybe i am the one to beat all three of you!" Allen said with a cheeky grin. "Don't forget i will also be with them on a team!" Charles said and petted Allen's head.
"Shit! i completely forgot! But hey at least let me beat up Dan! He spread rumors that i was hiding beautiful gem like eyes under my bandages and ever since, there have been people from the Aphrodite cabin trying to seduce me or distract me, so they can get a peek." Allen said a bit angry. "How about it, we three will hold him still so you can beat him up? we also suffered from some nasty rumors he had spread." Pete, said with a smirk.
Dan stepped back and shook his hands "Guys you wouldn't right?" he asked, but Charles, Pete and James just smiled at him. "Who told the Hermes cabin again that i was a ballet dancer and own a pink tutu?" Charles asked and raised a eyebrow at Dan. "Who was the one that spread the rumors that i can only sleep, if i have a bunny plushie in my arms?" Pete asked and James just said "Who was the one that wanted to spread rumors, that i was giving free blowjobs in the boys toilet?" As James said it, everyone looked at him. Never having heard the Rumor.
"Guys, it's just fun! Really!" Dan avoided the looks of resentment and took a step back. "Beating you up is also just fun, really!" Allen said and the others nodded. "And if i am not wrong, you were the one that started rumors about Annabeth, how she and Clarissa were in love." Allen added and he could feel killing intent coming from Annabeth and landing on Dan. "Beat him up in the Capture the Flag game, strip him naked and bind him to a tree, while stuffing his mouth with his own underwear!" Annabeth commanded and us four did a military salut accepting the Order.
"I feel sick, i think i can't join the game tomorrow!" Dan said in a woeful voice and held his stomach. Faking a stomach ache. "Ooh don't think of not going. Or we will tell Clarissa about certain rumors you spread!" Pete said with a devil like grin! Dan pointed at us "You are all evil, devil's, worse than monsters!" and rushed off. We had a good laugh at his leaving figure. "We are still gonna do it right?" Charles asked and we all gave a nod.
Around dinner time, Percy was put into the Hermes Cabin and was seen eating with them on Thier table, talking with Luke. Annabeth herself was still friends with Luke, but not really in love or anything. Thier friendship even started to grow apart as she had spent more time With Allen and the Others. Allen was once again eating alone, but he got used to it.
He also started enjoying his alone time, after hanging out with his friends everyday. While eating he looked a bit from Luke to Percy and then Annabeth. Knowing that the plot about the stolen thunderbolt would soon start. He knew that Luke was the Thief and knew where the Lightning bolt was hidden. He could expose him anytime, but didn't really want to.
Exposing Luke early, would mean to destroy the entire row of events that might happen. Allen didn't want to take any of such risks. Not to mention how he wanted to join the Adventure for this lightning bolt himself. He trained with Annabeth exactly so he could go on to adventures and protect himself.
He ate everything on his plate and walked to his Cabin, still somewhat in deep thoughts, going over the Events that will happen in the Future. Closing the Cabin door behind him, he went upstairs to his bedroom and laid on the bed. Tomorrow Percy would reveal his powers over water and that he was the Son of Poseidon. With it would come the Angry Zeus accusing Percy of stealing the bolt and his journey to find said bolt and his mother that was captured by Hades.
Hades who will want to exchange the bolt against Percy's mother later on.
