Hey guys! No reviews yet. :-( Anyways, everyone in this story is human. I though I should put that out there. I mean, sure they have powers but no one is immortal.

Chapter Four

Bianca

"Thank goodness there's a dishwasher," Thalia muttered as she loaded the plates. "If I got stuck with the chore of washing dishes—"

"Hey," Jason interrupted. He sat on one of the black swirling chairs at the kitchen island. "Should we assign chores?"

Percy scrunched up his face, "I don't know. Like what?"

"Like laundry," Hazel suggested. She was sitting on the counter. "Although…I didn't bring my luggage. I didn't expect to be here so long. And there may not even be a washer and dryer."

"Yeah, that sucks," Nico agreed. "I don't have anything to change into."

Bianca sighed. She didn't bring anything with her. Well, she did have a brush in her pocket like she always does but that was it. How long were they staying, anyways?

"Hello?" A voice called from the living room. It was Chiron. The six children headed into the next room.

Chiron took up the screen from the waist up, like always. Behind him appeared just a blue background.

"Hi, Chiron," Bianca greeted. Everyone else contributed their welcomes.

"Hello everyone," Chiron replied. "Have you settled in yet?"

"No," Thalia huffed. She crossed her arms. "We have no clothes."

"No toiletries," Bianca added.

"No other shoes," Percy gestured to his leather loafers. "My mom forced me to wear these for the 'special occasion.'"

"We'll discuss that in a minute but first we have more important matters," Chiron said. "Would you guys be okay with starting your training tomorrow?"

"You never even explained that. What are we fighting?" Nico asked.

Chiron's eyes shifted off screen, "Should I tell them?"

"I guess so," another voice replied. The voice was masculine.

Chiron must of saw our confused faces because he laughed and said, "This is my colleague, you can call him Mr. D."

Another person joined the screen. It was a man with black hair, a very loud purple Hawaiian shirt and a potbelly. He held a diet Coke. "Hello," he greeted. "So let's see, we have," he pointed to Jason first, "Jackson."

"No," Percy interrupted, "that's me."

"I thought you were Peter."

Percy exchanged a look with Jason.

"Then little Hailey, Nicole, Beatrice and…Theresa."

Thalia glared hard at the screen, "its Thalia."

"And I'm not a girl!" Nico cried.

Mr. D shrugged and went out of screen.

"So, what are we fighting?" Nico asked again.

Chiron's eyes turned cold, "There's this man who is trying to take over America. We're trying to get into the system and shut it down before he can takeover."

"Takeover what?" Percy asked.

"Have you ever heard of Olympus?" The six shook their heads and Chiron went on. "Olympus is owned by three extremely powerful and wealthy brothers. The three brother's own the main three parts of the company and those branch into smaller companies. Everything they've ever done is on a computer. If K, the bad guy, gets in and steals these files, he could take over entirely. The three brothers basically run this country. Everything comes from them and their companies. K stealing this…he could stop anything from coming in or out of the country. We'd run low on supplies, for instance. Most of the people who join K were promised a part of it. We're just trying to make sure this doesn't happen without letting everyone know of it. If they did, well, it wouldn't be good."

"Now that I think about it, Olympus has this little logo doesn't it?" Percy recalled. "That logo is on everything. Furniture, phones, computers—"

"Exactly. We could lose all of that to greed and jealousy."

"So we're going to fight him?" Jason clarified.

"No, not exactly. He has accomplices all over America that run these little businesses. We're going to try and fight them at the source."

"So, I'm guessing our dads work for them?" Nico said.

"Um, something like that."

"Chiron, what happens if we die fighting?" Thalia asked.

Chiron frowned, "It's very unlikely—"

"But it's not impossible," Hazel pointed out.

"It's only ever happened once so our knowledge of it is very limited but," Chiron sighed, "If you die here…it's like you never existed."

"Wait," Jason said. "If I die will Thalia still remember me?"

"Of course but your mom wont."

"That…really sucks," Nico said.

"Another thing, how long do you plan on us being here?" Jason asked.

Chiron looked away like he was thinking, "The whole thing can take up to five years—"

"Five years!" Bianca yelled. "What?"

"We suspect K will be attacking in two or three years but another source says five. There's no way we can be sure."

"I think my mom will notice if I come back out 17 almost 18," Percy said.

"No worries, once you're out your age will return to twelve."

"Good, so back to our first question, we have no clothes or anything."

Chiron smiled, "You guys ask way too many questions. Have you even checked your bedrooms?"

"Um…"

"Go check," Chiron instructed.

"Let's check out the girls' bedrooms first," Thalia suggested.

Of the two doors on the left side of the living room they tried the left one first. Inside was a cubicle with four doors. Three on the left and one on the right. The first door led to a room painted red. It had a large bed against the wall, a dresser a nightstand with a lamp and across from it was the closet. Bianca went towards the closet and opened it. To say the least, the clothing wasn't very colourful. Bianca knew it wasn't hers.

"These must be my clothes," Thalia said poking her head in the closet. "None of my real clothes but things I've wanted. All here."

The group all shuffled into the next room. It had mint green walls and they discovered it was Hazel's. The last room was Bianca's and it had light purple walls. The fourth door led to the bathroom. Inside were three showers, three sinks, a very large mirror, a toilet and a towel rack. It held six towels: two red, two mint green and two purple. Back in the living room, the door beside the one that led to the girls' bedroom led to their bathroom. It was the same thing on the boys' side. Nico's room had grey walls, Jason's had green and Percy's had blue.

When they went back into the living room a new set of words flashed on the screen.

All six children assigned to bedrooms.

Step Three: Accomplished

After watching a movie with Hazel and Percy, Bianca retired to her bedroom. Nico had chosen to stay in his room and play with his cards and Jason and Thalia had both decided to stay on their phones all night. The phones didn't call or text their friends but they all found one on our bedside table. Bianca passed Thalia and Hazel's room before reaching her own. Once there she quickly changed into her nightgown. Before going to bed she passed through the living room and into the boys' dormitory. Once she stood in front of her brother's room she knocked gently.

"Who is it?" he called.

"Bianca." She opened the door and entered. Nico sat cross-legged on the bed with one earbud in his ear. "Your music is so loud I can hear it."

Nico sighed and turned off his music. "Hi."

"Hey," Bianca replied as she sat on the edge of his bed.

"So…why'd you come in here?"

Bianca shrugged, "I just wanted to talk."

Nico got under his blanket. "I'm still not sure if this is a dream or not."

"I don't know," Bianca combed her hair with her fingers. "I mean, it is real Nico, I'm just worried. What if we die? We're like in another dimension."

"Bianca, I really hope we don't die."

"Me too, Nico."

She opened her arms, "Let's hug it out."

"No, Bianca—stop."

"Please?"

Nico sighed, "Okay."

Bianca wrapped her arms around her brother.

"Aww," came a voice from the door. Percy stood their smiling.

"Percy, you creep!" Bianca threw a pillow at him which he dodged. "'Night," he said before walking off to his own room.
