Magic Upon Magic: Allison's new home

"Whoa." I mutter. "What are you doing here?" I stare at her. Allison giggles. "I'm here for your next quest: Hogwarts. Mother said I had to help you. I'm registered, not to worry." She adds when she glances on the look on my face. "Oh. Phew. Hogwarts starts on September 1st, but we need to get in Britian, get checked in and all that by the beginning of August." Allison nods. "Got that. But for now, take me around CHB. I'm a bit new to it." She confesses in a smaller voice so the others wouldn't hear, or find out that she was a Camp Jupiter kid. "Where's you SQUR thing or something?" Allison points at upper arm, and quickly pulls the sleeve. "Does Chiron know you're here?" She nods. "Huh." I rub my chin, looking up to the sky. "Uh, you went to Hades or something?" I question her. She nods. "Mother went to Hades to bend the rules a little, and he accepted. If I could, I could try for the Isles of the Blest." Allison thoughtfully added. "Hey! Who are you????" A person suddenly asks. It's Elaina. I see her holding Demigods and You book. "Oh uh, Elaina, this is Allison, Allsion, this is Elaina. She was one of the people that helped me on my quest. Same for Allison." Elaina nods and leaves as if nothing happened at all. Allison looked at her with a small trace a hatred, even though they just met. Strange. Oh well. I show Allison the pegasus stables, the archery range, all that. Jackson gives her a stiff smile and a forced nod when he sees her. Andrew was still in his suspicious way, looking at the dryads for some reason, warily. Allison and I laugh as we pass the lake. "So, Camp Half-Blood." She says, looking around. I carefully shoot my next question.

"Did you like Camp Jupiter or Camp Half-Blood better?" I say after a pegasus lesson. "Hmm." Allison wonders for a moment. "Uh, I'd probably have to say Camp Half-Blood." I stare at her. "Really? Why?" She thinks for a moment. "Camp Jupiter was work, work, work. It seemed like it was old, and CHB seems so new and refreshed. CHB also has fun activities. We sleep in barracks, at least, I had to, and CHB has bunks." I rub my chin thoughtfully. "Huh. That does seem better." Allison shrugs. "Honest opinion." Wow. I think. Is Camp Jupiter really like that? "No." Elaina explains when 
Allison is off my sleeve. "It was a bit better than that." I eyed the snowy blue snowflakes in my Elsa hair. The braid was swept behind me. I turn beck as Elaina started to recall her time at Camp Jupiter. She spoke quietly so that the others wouldn't hear. I nod, but add in, "Allison actually was a camper. You guys were just prisoners hanging around when we got there." Elaina shrugged and did a I-guess-so look and action. "Oh, we better get to our next activities." I suddenly say, looking at my watch. Elaina nods, smiles, and strolls quietly towards the archery range. We have canoeing at the lake next. I concentrated on trying to get across the lake, when someone, or something, shoved me into the lake.
