He had been waiting years to do this. Death. Resurrection, years had passed. Years had to have passed for this to work right. It hadn't been easy to get the seven not to completely and utterly hate him anymore. They weren't exactly friends, but Octavian knew them well enough for his little stunt to be able to be put into action. He shuddered excitedly. This had been his plan since day one.
Okay not exactly but it had been his plan since being brought mysteriously back to life. Percy Jackson had never been able to stop griping about Octavian's murder of that silly Panda Pillow pet. He loved that thing so much? Fine. Octavian would give it back.
Percy and Annabeth had just moved into their cozy new home. They were married and still madly in love. Whatever, it didn't matter.
Octavian just needed to make things happen.
He filled a moving van with boxes.
He had the moving van drive to Percy and Annabeth's house when he knew Percy would be home. Curious and suspicious at the moving filled with boxes he took the first one out and opened it, probably hoping it wasn't a trap. It wasn't It definitely wasn't.
It was a prank. A beautiful prank.
Each box in the Moving van was filled with Panda Pillow pets.
Percy's reaction?
Priceless.
