Title: Thaila's thoughts.

Series of one-shots about Thaila.

The freaking stupid, horrible, crappy claiming.

It was the day her mother went bezerk. It was a day that she likes to forget. But it was the day she figured out who she really was. Most kids would envy a day like this, but not Thaila. It was the day the world crashed down on her, and that's very hard on a 7-year-old kid.

(If you don't know what I'm talking about yet, you might want to notice how Rick Riordan never wrote about Thaila being claimed)

She woke up in her house in Los Angeles. Her room was fairly large, with some furniture here and there. She had an ocean-view, although she rather not. She smelt pancakes coming from the kitchen. Mother is cooking for once? Okay, something is wrong. Her thoughts started to trouble her. She knew her Father had started visiting her Mother again, but Mother NEVER acted like this, not even around father.

She started to walk towards the kitchen, and found mother cooking on the stove, singing some tune. Her dad was sitting on a stool in the kitchen, watching her mother with sparkling blue eyes. When he saw Thaila come in, he smiled briefly, as if to show that he cared, but had more important things to do.

"Hey, dad, why is mom cooking?" Thaila said to her father.

"HEY! Just because you're talking to your dad doesn't mean I can't hear you!" Her mother yelled.

Thaila rolled her eyes as if she meant to say that in front of her mother. She looked at her dad with studying blue eyes. He seemed a lot different to her. He looked more business- like, more mature.

He told Thaila," she's just happy, that's all"

Thaila knew there was more to this, but was interrupted by a plate with a pancake on it slam in front of her. The pancake looked awful, burnt everywhere and still had some parts that were still liquid-y.

Her mother looked at her dad, as if to say I'm so glad you're here, but if you leave me again I will kill you. Unfortunately, her dad didn't notice the look. He stood up; his eyes filled with… fear?

"My wife, I must go, she knows of my presence," he said.

Thaila stared at him with his mouth open. "You mean you have another wife, other than mom! And you are CHEATING ON HER!" she screamed.

He looked at Thaila sympathetically. "Many dangers await you, my daughter. And Marie, (didn't know what Thaila's mom name was, so I made one up) you must name our son Jason, for that is the only way to calm my wife," Her father said.

My mother looked at my father, her eyes filled with hate. "How could you do this to me!" she screamed at the sky, "What is wrong with you!"

Her dad looked at her mother. "Marie, I must go, now, and I want you to take care of Thaila," he said. Her father walked to the balcony of the house and turned to wave at his daughter. Then he disappeared into smoke.

She looked at her mother, eyes wide. "How can he do that? Why was he cheating? And I have a brother?"

Her mother stared at her and laughed a madman's laugh. She looked back at Thaila, "You don't have a brother, yet. He was cheating because he can, and he can get away with it. And how can he turn into smoke? I thought you were smart, Thaila, you should have already figured this out. Your father is Zeus, lord of the sky."
