Tina dove franticly out of the way, rolling aside from the lightning and sparks. One stray bolt looked like as if it was about to strike her. She didn't want it to. She was afraid.... A wave of vines shot up out of the sandy ground, blocking the bolt. The charged plant grew long and spiny thorns, waving and entangling themselves around the little girl protectively with an ever moving and changing pattern.
Tina opened her pale blue eyes in astonishment. Plants! They spoke out to her in mesmerizing whispers, and to Tina, it was a jubilant time. Her powers had awakened, and her kindred soul gave her complete control over the plants.

Julien, while the other two began fighting, backed around the arena and took a seat, praying he would be able to stay out of the fight. Even though they weren't attacking him, directly, Julien was still a target. With each bolt of lightning that shot toward Tina, Julien jumped, ready to flee. He knew they weren't aimed at him, but electricity is dangerous. It has a mind of it's own.
When Silver created the wall of lightning, Julien nearly yelp, flinging himself back as a stray sliver of electricity came toward him. He got shocked, needless to say, but it wasn't enough to cause any damage beyond a little pain throughout his body for a few moments - like a static shock one would receive after shuffling across a rug and touching a doorknob. And when Tina summoned the vine, Julien nearly lost it. His little half-sister could do that? Did that mean Julien had that potential, as well? It was a truly amazing sight to behold. Julien backed up and leaned against the very edge of the arena, trying to keep his composure and act as if this were normal - which it probably was, around here.

Silver clapped "Sehr gut, let's take it to a new level then," she grinned making the clouds above rumble as they shot down electricity but instead of hitting the ground Silver shifted it making it move in a circle around Tina like a fence the energy closing in onto the girl. Now this may be painful. But if Silver had to she could shot it back into the clouds. The electric current rushing through the air around Silver and Tina. The clouds covering the sky slighly and making it dim.

Tina ducked, curling up in a fetal position from fear. She was scared of the electricity. Out of the corner of her eye, she had caught Julien's reaction from getting hit by a stray bolt of lightning. And it looked like it had hurt somewhat. This...this was...overboard? The plants lashed out defensively at the lightning. On contact, the air crackled sharply and the air smelled of ozone. Smoke rose, and the little girl raised her frightened head. The plants around her had collapsed, black and crusted from the shock. Tina looked up, kind of sad that she had used the plants for her defense like that. She gazed at Silver, wondering if they would have to continue. The fight had gone out of her, and she was afraid of summoning more plants.

Silver clapped "Good job. So now you've got a quick introduction lets start combat." picking up a nearby sword she smiled "My attacks will be slow and unnecessary simple," her warning coming two seconds before she lunged forward. Pausing she looked at Julien and beckoned him forward "Come on, this will do you good. You don't know when the camp will be attacked,"

Julien sighed, walking down. He really wasn't looking forward to this. He was more of a sit back and watch, hoping for the best person than a lunge and kill person. Not bothering to draw his knife just yet, he stood an equal distance from both Tina and Silver, forming a tip of a triangle. "Alright," he sighed, wishing he'd taken longer looking for his knife.

Silver snickered at Julien "I suppose I need to go easy on you as well? No problem." she lunged forward her sword lane as her grip remained calm. She wasn't even trying, it was a mere test to see if he can at least deflect a blade and not cowar away.

Julien, thinking quickly, dodged to the side and drew his knife in one motion. He held it up, defensively, to be sure she wouldn't hit him.

Tina watched, elated to see her big brother fighting Silver. She kind of looked up to him, and wanted to learn. She watched then carefully. Her pale blue eyes were wide with interest, the color of spring water running through a valley.

Silver stacked her sword into the ground. And decided not to even bother using it. "Julien," she said with a annoyed sigh "I was barely holding the sword, you could've ended the fight by deflecting and attacking, or knocking the sword out of my hand." sighing she then added "Julien attack me, do t worry I'm not holding a sword, just stay light on your toes and attack,"

Julien hesitated, looking at Silver as if she were insane - which she probably was, as far as he had heard - but decided he'd better attack. Running up to her, he swung his knife, quickly, and aimed for her arm.

Silver didn't hesitate. In one quick motion she slid under the knife and zapped his hand making it painful enough to him to jerk back or to drop the weapon. Standing up she said "If you dodge you better be quick enough to attack right after cause a monster isn't going to stand still and say 'hey Julien stab me with a sword right after I attack you because I'm gonna stand still like an idiot' no its gonna fight until you either have nothing left or it dies," her eyes flashing darkly but flashing back.

Julien yelped and flew back, his grip tightening on the knife until his knuckles turned white. Taking a breath, he nodded. He knew this would be true. It was common sense. Still, he didn't want to fight. He wasn't a fighter. He hated fighting. He'd rather stay back and watch. But there was no valid reason, other than him just not wanting to, to not fight. Bringing up his knife, he feigned another slice to Silver's arm, but dropped at the last possible moments and aimed for her leg.

Silver didn't need her powers for this. Dodging his first attack and rolling over him she picked up a random dagger and held it in offensive position "Faster, and this time do something I can't simply dodge or block my methods of escaping. Like this," suddenly a electric fence shot up surrounding Silver and Julien and leaving Tina out "And if we were fighting I'd send a bolt from the sky down on your head, lucky for you I'm the only Zeus cabin member at the moment and my father doesn't have many children that survive Hera's wrath and pose a threat to you. But their are other powers out there, when or rather if Kathrine Woods returns she can teach you more about your powers, she's cabin leader for Demeter and may I add she had more problem getting her powers to obey than you do currently but she had learned to control them and is now fully capable of growing flowers," a thin smile on her face. She found Demeter powers not as enticing as her own, then again she had Big Three added to her father's title...

Julien sighed. Even he wasn't as enthusiastic about his power's as he wished he could be. "Well, what do you want me to do? I can't use my powers and I'm just learning how to fight!" Midway through his asking for advice he was sure wouldn't come, he got an idea. As he said 'fight', he lashed out with his knife as unexpectedly as he could manage.
