It was a nice, quiet morning at Camp Half-Blood. The birds were chirping, the campers were waking up, everyone was calm-
"STOLLS!"
... until four screams of rage cut through the air, scaring the birds into the air.
Percy looked up and shook his head exasperatedly. "They are in deep schist now..."
Indeed they were, but it was not the fact that two of the screams were a daughter of Aphrodite, a son of Apollo, and a daughter of Hecate; nor the fact that it was a quadruple prank; but the fact that the third scream belonged to a very pissed off, very pink, Son of Hades.
*I am a line break*
"They've gone too far," said Nico.
"I agree," said Lacey, "but what?"
"You know how everyone, especially new campers, gets them mixed up?" At the nods the other two gave her, Lou Ellen continued. "Dr. Seuss."
Matching evil grins formed on all four faces as it sank in.
"Nico, can you get us into the Hermes Cabin?"
"I'll take care of the rhymes," volunteered Will Solace.
*I am a line break*
In the middle of the night, three figures snuck over to the side of the Hades cabin, where a fourth figure was waiting. Within moments of reaching the fouth figure, all of them disappeared.
In the Hermes Cabin, the partners in crime went to work.
*I am a line break*
The next morning it was again a nice, quiet morning at Camp Half-Blood. The birds were chirping, the campers were waking up, everyone was calm-
"WHAAAAAT?!"
... until a pair of identical voices cut through the air.
At the Dining Pavilion, four people looked up with satisfied expressions on their face and pulled out cameras, getting some weird looks from their cabinmates... until two Things stumbled into the Dining Pavilion.
It was the Stolls. They were each wearing a red onesie, Travis with a white circle on his saying "Thing 1" and Conner with one saying "Thing 2". Their hair was bright blue and spiked out in all directions. They had expressions of utter despair on their faces.
Nico, Lacey, Will, and Lou Ellen smirked and started taking pictures.
"Please, please! Get rid of this! We can't take any more of it!"
"NO!"
Defeated, the Stolls turned and walked away.
Later, when some new campers came in, Percy introduced them as: "Travis Stoll is Thing 1. Conner is Thing 2."
