A/N: If you're wondering where this idea came from, I am a sucker for cheesy PJO stories. And after reading azhou1's take on this situation, I just had to try it out for myself. WARNING: Seriously cheesy story, but you might find yourself grinning from time to time. Hades knows I did. Read and review! All rights go to, of course, our favorite uncle, Rick Riordan. Takes place after the events of Blood of Olympus, back at Camp Half-Blood, but disregarding the events of the Trials of Apollo, since those events sort of ruined this idea (not to mention my heart). Just picture a happy ending to Blood of Olympus and that's where this would be happening.
"Hmmmpf."
Lady Aphrodite sat upon her grand Olympian throne, overseeing the pesky mortal endeavors in the world below. She was terribly bored, what with the huge war against the shrew Gaea being over, and it seemed that her favorite heroes had settled into a state of contentment. Which was fine and all, especially with a few of her personal favorite couples creeping closer to that sought after happy ending, but oh how she missed the excitement of the unknown, the thrill of unrequited love. She just had to keep things interesting. And if interesting was what she wanted, she knew just the goddess to talk to.
Hecate was just beginning to enjoy the Olympian view of the untarnished world when Aphrodite appeared. She was a bit stunned by the approach of the goddess, if she was being honest. Her relationship with Aphrodite had always been a bit shaky, considering Hecate was a virgin goddess, and Aphrodite, well, wasn't. Still, she knew the power Aphrodite held, and had no intention of crossing her. "My lady. What is it you need from me?"
"Oh stop with the pleasantries. What I need is your help concerning a few demigods." The goddess of love and beauty had a grin that Hecate noticed was more wicked and sly than lovely or beautiful.
"Would these be the same demigods who helped us put Gaea to sleep, restored our conflicting personalities, and stopped another world war from happening?"
"Yes, those demigods. I have an idea involving them that could benefit us all." Hecate listened patiently as Aphrodite explained her plan.
"And how exactly will that benefit any of us?" Hecate asked, wondering just what this goddess had up her sleeve.
"Oh you'll see!" was her only reply. Hecate gave in with a shrug. It wasn't like she had anything better to do with her afternoon.
After getting the specific potion she was after, Aphrodite left the throne room and headed to her favorite spot to look for teenage drama: Half-Blood hill.
