Alicia entered the room rather timidly, as if afraid that an instrument would suddenly come alive and attack her. The music room was a rather new addition to camp, so Alicia had not yet been in it yet.
The blonde ran her fingers lightly over a few instruments, that were sitting on a nearby table, including the saxophone, violin, and a triangle. She smiled lightly. The temperature in the room was moderate so that the instruments wouldn't go out of tune, and it was sound proof. Those were two things that Alicia appreciated. Warmth, and silence.
Alicia let out a small sigh and walked over to the grand piano that was situated in the middle of the room. After hesitating for a moment, she poked the 'A' note. A small smile appeared on her lips when she heard the clear and in-tune note. After playing a few scales to get warmed up, she started playing a song that she had memorized a while ago for a concert.

As Lucas walked in, He heard the soft keys of a piano. He walked over and sat down on a stool in front of the drums. He started to play.

Alicia was so engrossed with her song that she didn't even notice Lucas had entered the music room until she heard the rhythm of the drums. She stopped playing, Lucas' music was making her go off beat. A sigh escaped her lips. She was probably not going to get any more practice that day.
After contemplating on what to do for a moment, Alicia shifted her body so that she was facing Lucas. If she could not play the piano, she might as well watch him play the drums. Alicia didn't say anything, she merely watched as Lucas played the drums, creating a rather beautiful rhythm.

Lucas heard as the piano stopped playing and he saw that Alicia was sitting beside him trying out the drums. He kept playing. It made him feel better when he had someone listening

Alicia smiled lightly as Lucas continued playing the drums. It was rather nostalgic to her, and brought back memories of her school year. She had many friends, most of them guys, who had played drums in bands.
Unconsciously, Alicia's hand began tapping on the piano chairthat she was sitting on. Slowly a melody began forming in her head. She turned around and walked back to her piano. Alicia closed her eyes for a moment, focusing on the little tune that was in her head. Then she started playing, her fingers moving swiftly and quickly across the keys. Her left foot kept on tapping the floor, trying to stay on beat with Lucas.
Soon Alicia found herself in a duet with Lucas. Although piano and drums was a rather different combination, in Alicia's opinion, it sounded rather nice.

Alicia continued playing the piano, her well practiced moving across the keys in the most skillful way possible. After a while, the song came to end. Alicia smiled, and after stretching her fingers a bit, she tuned her head to face Lucas with a smile playing on her lips.
"You played very well," she complimented, her eyes bright. It had been a while since she had heard anyone other than her half siblings play an instrument.

 Archad "Chad" Apollyon
Son of Hades, God of the Underworld
Chad came into the room, bored and very tired. He started strumming on his guitar the song, The Quiet Screaming, and sang along quietly to it:
"I'm missing your bed. I never sleep. Avoiding the spots. Where we'd have to speak. And this bottle of beast. Is taking me home..."((I'm seriously bored... So... Yeah. If you wanna know what song I'm talking about, here's a link it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVVFmZAZCf4NOTE: The intro is not the song~))

Alicia smiled, walking towards Lucas. Taking the drumsticks from his hand, she timidly played a few beats on the drums. She stopped after a few seconds, realizing that she sounded downright horrible. A small blush appeared on her face, Alicia was embarrassed. After all, she was a child of Apollo, and they were suppose to be good with instruments.
"I guess even the children of Apollo can't be good at all instruments," she said, laughing lightly. She handed the drumsticks back to Lucas, and then turned her head towards the sound of a a guitar and a beautiful voice singing. Her first thought was that the boy who was playing the guitar was a sibling of hers, but she quickly dismissed that thought. Alicia didn't recognize him as someone who stayed in her cabin, which meant that he was from someplace else.

Emily walked into the music room and immediatly heard voices. She loved music and hearing people sing was the best for her. She walked farther in, letting the music carry her. She sat down on a piano bench and rested her fingers on the keys. She hadn't played in a while, so she played a few chords and scales on it. They sounded good so she thought of some songs.
The song she had been singing eariler came to her mind and she began to play Vanilla Twilight by Owl City. Her fingers danced over the keys as she sang, "The stars lean down to kiss you, and I lie awake and miss you. Pour me a heavy does of atmosphere, cuz I'll doze of safe and soundly. But I'll miss your arms around me. I'd send a postcard to you dear, cuz I wish you where here."

Lucas took his drumsticks and started to play. He heard someone singing. To his surprise it was Emily. He walked over to her and quietly said "Hey."

Alicia smiled as Lucas started playing again. Unlike her, his drum playing skills were amazing. A few minutes later, Alicia heard a girl's voice singing. A curious expression appeared on her face as Lucas stopped playing to go over to her. A smile broke out on Alicia's lips. Lucas voluntarily walking towards a girl? Well that was new. Usually Alicia had to talk to be the person leading the conversation when she spoke to Lucas. She tilted her head slightly, wondering who the girl was. She didn't recognize her, but whoever she was, she was probably someone special to Lucas.
After sighing quietly at how loud and crowded the room had gotten, she started walking towards the exit of the music room. When she passed by the boy with the guitar, she tapped him lightly on the shoulder to get his attention. "Your singing is really good," she complimented, smiling. "It's as good as those in the Apollo cabin."
After complimenting the boy, Alicia waved goodbye to Lucas and the girl, and left for her cabin.

Oliza walked into the Music Room, startled slightly that Emily was there. Sighing, she moved over towards an empty seat. Her guitar appeared in a small burst of light. She started playing the song she had remembered a long time ago. Sometimes it fit to her mood, sometimes it didn't. (( song))
