Percy:
Jason's chest heaves with effort. His blue eyes watch me intently.
"Oh gods," he grunts, "I'm exhausted. Nico, you're up."
"You know the water is kind of cheating," Piper states.
"He's just jealous because my powers are awesome," I retort.
"Your head's getting too big, Percy," Annabeth smirks, leaning against Reyna's shoulder.
I take a mouthful of water and grin at my ex-girlfriend.
"Please," I state, "I'm fabulous. And everyone knows it."
Nico's blade arches. I block his strike with riptide just in time.
"Well," Leo remarks, "He's not all talk."
I swing my blade around at Nico. A small smirk lights his face as we spar.
"TRAVIS!"
The bellow startles both Nico and I. I flinch backwards as the Nico stumbles forward, the tip of his sword scratching my forearm. I feel the warmth of my blood on my flesh as I look up at the Stolls chuckling madly as they run, chased by Hecate's daughter Olivia.
"Hades!" Nico's face loses its little bit of colour, "I'm sorry!"
"Nico," I chuckle, "I'm fine!"
I wipe the blood away; it's not too deep at least.
"Give me that potion back!" Olivia yells.
The brothers dance around Nico and I, avoiding the girl easily. Olivia ducks between us and catches Travis.
"Chuck it here, Trav!" Connor calls.
The small flask of clear liquid is flicked towards him. The glass slips from his fingers, twisting it's path. The bottle smashes against my ear.
"NO!" Olivia screams, "YOU IDIOTS!"
The liquid burns where it touches, enveloping me in thick, purple smoke.
"Percy!" I hear Hazel call in alarm.
The smoke fills my lungs, choking me. My knees grow weak and I collapse onto my hands. My head spins, swapped by toxic cloud. The strength vacates my whole body, I squeeze my eyes shut. I feel a gust of wind.
"Oh gods!" Frank exclaims.
Air floods my lungs and a chill runs down my spine. I open my eyes to see nothing but a curtain of black hair. I sit back on my legs. I part the hair with…. My hands? These aren't mine.
I stare at the tiny fingers before shifting my gaze up. Nico is still the closest to me. His dark eyes are wide and staring.
"Nico-," I break off startled.
The voice from my throat is high pitched and sweet.
"Oh gods," I mutter, looking down at myself.
The first thing I notice is I'm naked. The second is the fact I now have breasts.
"What the hell happened?" I demands.
"Percy?" Annabeth steps forward, "it's okay, we'll work something out."
"You idiots!" Olivia starts to cry, "I told you I didn't have the antidote!"
"I'm stuck like this?" I demand, hysteria threatening to take me.
"I'm sorry!" Olivia sobs.
I take a deep breath before pushing myself to my too small feet. I spy out Travis and set my jaw, standing up straight.
"Give me your shirt," I say calmly.
His eyes look over my body before he even registers what I said.
"My shirt," he repeats stupidly, "Why? Oh Hera, are they real?"
He extends his index finger and pokes my left breast.
"You made me turn into a girl," I growl, "what do you think?"
My fist slams against his jaw, making him stagger.
"Hades!" Jason says, "Woah! Percy! Stop!"
I feel a set of arms wrap around my body, stopping me from ripping the son of Hermes' throat out.
"Look," Jason tells me, "let's go sort this out, Chiron will know what to do."
I pull myself away from Jason. My long hair falls in front of my breasts and I feel my face burn with embarrassment.
"Give me your shirt," I say to Travis again.
"Why?" he asks, holding his jaw.
"because you're the jerk who got my turned into a girl," I fume, "There's no way in Hades not going to walk to the Big House naked!"
"For now," Chiron sighs, "We will hope the potion wears off."
"I'm stuck," I conclude, "Fantastic."
"The Hecate cabin will find a solution," Annabeth assures me.
"In the meantime," Chiron shifts, "I think it's best the girls take care of you. Annabeth, perhaps you and Piper and Hazel should er… enlighten Percy about womanhood."
"Of course," Annabeth says, "Come on Percy, how about we go find you some clothes?"
I stare at Chiron mortified.
"Oh gods," I stutter.
"Percy," Piper says, laying the charm speak on thick, "It will be fine, I promise. Now, let's go find you some gorgeous clothes."
The Aphrodite cabin is crowded with dressers. Pink is the dominate colour.
"First thing's first," Piper proclaims, "I'm curling your gorgeous hair."
"No." I say flatly, "You're cutting it."
"But it's gorgeous!" protests Piper.
"I want clothes, Piper," I state.
"Fine," She grins, "Clothes first then your hair. Let's see, underwear first I think."
"Please," I huff.
"Here," Piper says, handing me a set of lacy underwear and bra.
I feel my face heat at the sight of them. The dark blue silk feels smooth and the black lace contrasts effectively.
"You like them?" Annabeth giggles.
"They're ah… very pretty," I respond.
"I brought them for Annabeth," Piper admits, "Back when you two were together. But I got the wrong size."
"Do you have just some jeans?" I ask, "And a tee- shirt?"
"But Percy!" Piper whines, "You'd look beautiful."
"Piper, please."
I look up at her.
"Oh gods," she sighs, "You're adorable."
She turns to burrow through a draw.
"Lacy won't mind you borrowing her clothes," Piper says, producing a pair of jeans and a black shirt.
"Thank you," I say, taking the clothing.
I slip into the bathroom before Piper registers her missed opportunity.
"We finally found something that can outdo your charm speak," Hazel giggles, "Percy's puppy-dog eyes."
"How are you going in there?" Annabeth asks me.
By this point I've wriggled into the underwear and jeans. I pull the bra in place and unlock the door, the straps too tight.
"Can you help me?" I ask, looking up at my ex-girlfriend.
Annabeth's face softens dramatically,
"Oh gods," Annabeth smiles, "Of course!"
Her nimble fingers release the straps and I thank her.
"No problem sweetie," Annabeth smiles, kissing my forehead.
"Hmm," Hazel states, "it's not quite big enough."
My breast bulge over the cup of the bra slightly. I blush at it and pull the shirt over my head.
"Okay," I say, "Now can we cut my hair?"
"Come on," Hazel smiles, "Let's go outside and cut it."
"What length?" Annabeth asks, taking out her dagger.
I take it from her hand and swept my hair into my left hand. I raise it to my hand and press the blade against the strands.
"PERSEUS JACKSON!" A voice screams, "DROP THAT DAGGER THIS INSTANT!"
The bone dagger in my hand grows hot. I hiss in pain and drop it. I see stomping her way towards me is the love goddess herself. I frown at her and release my hair. Behind her I see my father. Campers have gathered around the cabins to see the commotion.
"You are beautiful!" Aphrodite declares, pleasantly.
"Who is that?" Drew demands.
"It's Percy," Leo explains, "Olivia's potion got him turned into a girl."
I feel my face flush pink.
"Is that my shirt?" Drew demands.
"It's Lacy's." I say.
Drew's nails dig into my flesh as she literally rips the clothing from my body. I hear wolf whistles as my new bra is exposed. I steady myself as I hear the plumbing rattle.
"Don't fuck with me today, Drew," I growl at her, "I'm already pissed off."
Drew's palm slaps across my face, nails scratching across my cheek. My fist connects with her jaw before I register the fact.
"Percy," my dad says, catching my arm, "Stop. Sorry Aphie, you know how my daughters are."
"It's quite alright," Aphrodite smiles, "I love your girls. They're always so beautiful."
I look up at the love goddess, annoyed.
"Oh my," she squeals, "Aren't you just adorable?!"
She wraps her arms around and I look to my father for help.
"Dad?" I squeak softly.
"Aphie," he says, "you're scaring Percy."
The love goddess kisses my cheek before stepping away.
"Absolutely no cutting your hair," She grins, "Or I'll curse you. Ta-ta!"
I fold my arms across my chest, feeling very uncomfortable.
"I'll speak with Hecate," My father promises, "I'm glad you were born a boy."
"Thanks?" I say.
"I have enough trouble trying to keep Apollo from you as it is," he grumbles, "But now-."
He breaks off at the look on my face.
"Go get dressed;" he clears his throat; "Annabeth and the girls will keep you safe."
"I don't need them to keep me safe," I state.
"Oh you will," He disagrees, "See you soon, Percy."
