New story! Co-writing it with Celia, hope you enjoy it ^.^

Chapter 1

The day started out like any other school day. The random mornings that were full of ramblings that never made any sense, registration, where certain people talked about Brendon Urie and Mark Hoppus having a fight with trombones, assembly, which was 10 minutes so you could sleep, and then first class. But that's when it all began.

Elvarra and Shakra were sitting in Latin, making fun of the pictures in the books, and saying which Roman looked like which Fall Out Boy member. There was a knock at the door, and the school secretary walked in. "Could Shakra Flame and Elvarra Blythe please come to the principal's office?" she short blonde woman said to the Latin teacher (who was having difficulty trying to keep the class calm). No one really cared that people had to go to the principal's office, because really, they were more interested in finding out who was stronger by having arm wrestling matches. Elvarra was just about to win one, before she was made to leave.

"damnit! I was just about to win! I'll get you one day McCullough!" she called to her opponent, as Shakra dragged her out the door.

"what do you think the principal wants?" Shakra asked as they sat down and waited for the principal to call them in.

"I really have no clue…" Elvarra shrugged and threw a few Skittles into her mouth, "you didn't kill anyone again?"

"NO! I swear!" Shakra replied, looking shifty.

"girls?" the secretary's new assistant said wearily, "the principal will see you now."

"woohoo," Elvarra said sarcastically and they both went into the office, only to see their very good friends Blaise, Harmony and Flaring sitting in front of the principal, who Flaring and Shakra had so kindly nicknamed 'The Velvet Slug'.

As the girls walked over to the two empty chairs in front of the desk, Shakra started singing the 'Velvet Slug theme' quietly. This caused Flaring to nearly fall off her chair laughing.

"Girls, please, take a seat. And do it without causing a riot," the principal rolled his eyes.

"aye, aye cap'n" Shakra saluted him and sat down.

The principal took a deep breath, and waited a few moments before speaking. "Girls, now I have called you five here to talk to you about your outstanding grades." Blaise and Elvarra looked at each other, and burst out laughing. "Anyway," the principal continued. There was a soft click coming from behind them, as if a door was being locked. The principal smirked as the five girls turned their heads to look at the door behind them. When they turned back, their principal, had been replaced by a ten foot, wait for it, slug. All five girls were nearly in tears with laughter, and all started chanting the Velvet Slug theme.

The slug, which was once their principal, shot green slime at Harmony, who was able to dodge it.

"DON'T YOU THINK MY HAIR EATS ENOUGH?" she yelled at it.

The slime burnt a hole in the floor.

"it's like acid!" Elvarra exclaimed, "AWESOME."

"we need to find a way to stop it," Shakra said, looking around the room.

Blaise looked up at the slug "this seems very familiar, it's quite similar to-"

"WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR YOUR BOOK REFERENCES!" Flaring cut her off.

Elvarra dug around in her blazer pocket, until she pulled out her phone. She took out the battery and then a pocket knife from her bag.

"you have a pocket knife?" Harmony asked skeptically.

"this dude on the bus gave it to me!" she replied back, and dodged some slime. "think of something, Shakra!" she tossed the pocket knife and battery to a confused looking Shakra.

She just stood there for a second, then her eyes lit up. She stabbed the battery with the knife and threw it at the slug-thing. Which immediately exploded, and it's guts went everywhere.

"ewww!" Harmony looked disgusted.

"awesome!" Flaring grinned.

The door flew open, and one of their friends, Grover, stumbled into the room. "We have to get out of here. The school is gonna blow up!" he yelled at them.

They ran outside, after Blaise dragged them to the music corridor, so she could get her bass, named Spencer. After Spencer Smith. They sprinted down the street to the main road, then there was a sudden explosion. Debris flew at them at startling speeds, causing both Grover and Harmony to fall over.

"I blame the velvet slug…" Elvarra mumbled.

"Yeah, well I blame Elvarra," Shakra laughed.

"HEY! It wasn't my fault!"

"this time…" her friends corrected her.

Grover made them walk, and walk, and walk. Three of the girls' most hated things. "where are we GOING?" Flaring moaned.

"you'll see," Grover replied.

They walked, and walked until they got to a taxi place. "you couldn't have just CALLED a taxi?" Shakra asked.

"that's no fun!" Grover said and climbed into one of the taxis waiting outside. The five all tried to squeeze into the back seat and failed, so it ended up that Flaring and Blaise were sitting on top of the rest of them. Grover gave the driver directions, and soon they were on their way.

An hour into their journey, they heard a loud noise, which resembled thunder. Except it wasn't that. If you think it WAS thunder, then how to you explain the taxi being lifted into the air, and the five girls, plus Grover all being dragged out of it? There was a HUGE person standing in front of them. And when I say huge, I mean HUGE. "HEY!" Shakra gasped, "HE LOOKS LIKE GABE SAPORTA!" which he did, only, he was a LOT taller, and had one eye…

"what the HELL is THAT?" Flaring asked, "and why couldn't it look like Brendon or Skulduggery?"

"oh dear…" Grover sighed, "it appears that we've run into a Cyclops."

"a cywhat?" Elvarra asked, trying to work things out in her head, and failing.

The Cyclops swatted Harmony and Elvarra into a wall, the impact created a huge crater. It then lifted Blaise up by the collar and stared at her. "Gabe likes you," Shakra grinned.

"sh-shut up," Blaise replied, her eyes were wide, very wide. You could say that they were the size of the moon. Flaring burst into song.

"do y-you still have that pocket knife?" Blaise called down to Elvarra, who was trying to help Harmony get up off the ground.

"no! Shakra fed it to Mr. Slug!" she called back.

"great," Blaise rolled her eyes. She kicked the Cyclops in the forehead, right in the centre, which caused it to fall backwards. Blaise screamed as she plummeted towards the ground.

"no need to scream!" Harmony said, and both her and Elvarra burst out laughing at their private joke.

"HELP!" Blaise called and Grover caught her.

"I think you should apologize to Gabe," Shakra pointed to the unconscious Cyclops. Blaise hit her over the head.

"well, we better get going, it's just up that hill." Grover pointed towards a hill, where there was a really tall tree.

"looks….interesting?" Elvarra suggested. They began to climb the hill.

When they got to the top, both Shakra and Elvarra were out of breath. "NOT. Doing that. EVER. Again." they both agreed.

Grover pointed to a wooden gateway, "through there," he said, and led them through it, and to a huge three-story house. There were two men sitting at a table, one in a wheel chair, the other holding cards and attempting to ignore the two teenagers standing against the railing talking to them.

"Chiron!" Grover shouted, and the man in the wheelchair turned round.

"Grover!" he called back. The six made their way over to the table.

"Gah! I'm shorter than them!" Elvarra frowned, and looked at the boy standing against the railing.

"Elvarra, we will ALWAYS be shorter than people." Shakra patted her on the back.

"Chiron, who are these people?" The girl, who was also standing against the railing asked.

"This," Chiron said, "would be….Harmony York, Elvarra Blythe, Blaise Cipriano, Shakra Flame, and Flaring Rhythm. Am I right?" he looked at Grover for reassurance. Grover nodded. "girls, this would be Annabeth and Percy. They'll show you around the camp."

"camp?" Harmony asked, "cool."

Annabeth sighed, "follow me." They showed them around, introducing them to people.

"That's Clarisse," Percy pointed to one of the girls who was arm wrestling some other girl, she looked quite strong. She also looked like she could beat you up. Which she would. "I wouldn't mess with her," but of course, Elvarra, being Elvarra, ignored him and walked over to Clarisse.

"I could beat you any day." she said to her.

"oh, is that a challenge?" Clarisse sneered and slammed her opponents hand on the table.

"it appears to be…" Elvarra questioned what she was doing, but decided not to say anything about it.

"fine then, sit down and arm wrestle me." Clarisse rolled her eyes and Elvarra went to sit down, only to be dragged away by Annabeth.

"what are you doing?" Annabeth exclaimed. She just shrugged. They were introduced to a lot more people, but one person caught Blaise's eye.

"This, is Luke," Percy told us.

"why hello!" Blaise smiled.

"I'm Luke," he stuck out his hand and she shook it, "and you are?"

"she's your worst nightmare," Shakra smirked.

"dude, do you know how incredibly cheesy that was?" Flaring asked her.

"oh, I do." Shakra nodded, "doesn't make it any less true."

Blaise rolled her eyes, "I'm Blaise," she pulled her hand away.

"Well, follow me to Cabin 11. Make yourself at home."

Oh won't this be fun?
