Okay PJO fans. Grab your The Demigod Files book and turn to page 65. You see where Travis and Connor mention their best prank ever? Well, I wanted to know how it all played out. Hence, this story (duh!). I think I'll have the time be the summer just before The Last Olympian. And I know I have another story to be working on, but I'm having a bit of writer's block, so just bear with me. Also, I have another story in mind. It also has to do with The Demigod Files. But for now… ON WITH THE SHOW! :D

Disclaimer: I don't own anything. (Translation: HURRY UP AND FINISH WRITING YOUR BOOKS RIORDAN! I'M DYING HERE!) *ahem* anyways…

"Hey Travis?"

Travis looked up from his book, Pranks: What a Hermes Child Needs to Know. It was a gift from their father, all the newbies were required to read it. Some of the old-timers just read it for fun once in a while- it helps refresh your memory whenever you can't think of a prank. (I know, I know, a Hermes child reading? But when anything had to do with pranks, you can bet a Hermes child will be near it.)

"What's up Connor?"

Connor had to lean over his bed to look at Travis. They shared a bunk bed; Connor got the top bunk and Travis got the bottom, though Travis was currently sitting on the chair by the bed.

"I'm bored." Connor sighed drastically to express his boredom.

"Go prank someone." Travis went back to his book. Not ten seconds later Connor bothered him again.

"But I can't think of anything."

Travis laughed. "You mean to tell me a child of Hermes, not to mention my own brother, can't think of a simple prank to do?" Travis actually fell out of his chair he was laughing so hard.

"So not funny Travis!" Connor whined.

Travis kept laughing. Some of the newer kids gave him strange looks, but the older ones just knew to ignore him.

"Fine. Why don't you just give me an idea."

Travis looked up at his younger brother. His arms were crossed over his chest, his eyebrows were scrunched together, he was sitting crisscrossed, and his lips were in a pout. Travis laughed even harder- his brother looked ridiculous.

Finally, once Travis calmed down, he began to think.

"Well?" Connor asked impatiently.

Travis just continued thinking. He had realized the moment five seconds had gone by that he had nothing. Travis was only pretending to think so he could hold off on telling Connor that he couldn't think of a prank. That would result in Connor laughing at him. However, his ADHD got in the way, and Travis' mind had gone from pranks to porcupines to pies to blueberry bushes to bouncy balls and to I wonder how painful high heels can get before Connor broke the ADHD spell.

"Um, hello? Earth to Travis, do you read me? Helooooooo?"

Travis blinked; suddenly there was a hand waving in front of him.

"Right sorry," Travis shook his head. How on earth did I end up thinking about high heels? Of all the things I could think about… "What were we talking about again?"

"We were talking about…" Connor trailed off. He was smirking at his brother and soon, he began to laugh. "Wait, weren't youwere yelling at me earlier? And now, you can't think of anything either! Oh this is gold!" Now it was Connor's turn to laugh uncontrollably.

Travis quickly tried to get back his reputation, "No, no! I was just thinking! And I do have an idea!"

"Oh, really?" Connor's laughing calmed down…slightly.

"Yes, it had to do with, um," he looked around the room. His eyes landed on a single object and he, stupidly, blurted it out. "Mango!"

Connor rose as eyebrow, a clearly confused look on his face. "Excuse me?"

Travis started rambling, but soon, a plan formed. "Ya, mangos. I just thought that, you know, mangos are delicious and that we could trick the Demeter cabin or, like, paint the mango. Ya, paint the mango. And we can hold a contest and saying that the mango is real gold and whoever is the, um, bravest and goes after the Ares cabin will get it or…" Travis suddenly jumped out of his chair and leaped air, almost hitting his head on the side if his bed in the process. "Or we could paint it golden and give it to the Aphrodite cabin saying whoever is the most beautiful gets it!" Travis' grin was so broad you could practically see his wisdom teeth.

Connor stood dumbstruck for a moment before grinning wildly. "That's actually a great idea!"

They both did their happy dances around the room before Connor suddenly stopped. "Hey Travis?"

"Ya, Connor?"

"Nice save."

Travis smiled again. "Hey, I'm a son of Hermes. I told you I had a good prank idea didn't I?"

Connor just rolled his eyes and sighed, "Sure you did, Travis. Sure you did."

The brothers began walking out of the cabin, heads bent down in excited whisper and a single mango in the eldest hands.

Suddenly, the eldest asked, while looking at the mango, "Connor… For the love of everything prank-worthy, why in our dad's name do you have a mango?"

Connor just shrugged, "I don't know. Why do you have an enormous crush on that Katie chick?"

Travis scowled at his brother, giving him a not-so-playful shove. However, Connor just laughed as he fell on his butt, crashing into another camper who didn't think it was quite so funny.

"Sorry," Connor helped the dude up, still laughing. Turning to his brother he added, "Let's go and plan the best prank ever. Operation Ognam."

"Og-what?"

"Ognam. It's the backwards version of mango." Connor smiled, pleased to come up with such a great (in his opinion) codename.

"Operation Ogno, Oogname, Ogame, uh… How about Operation Omelet instead? It's way easier to say. Plus they kinda sound similar."

"What? No way! I like my codename better!"

"Well, what if an Athena kid heard you and figured it out, huh? Omelet is less conspicuous."

The brothers were nose to nose and having a stare down. After about a minute, Connor blinked.

"Ha ha! You blinked! You blinked! I win! I win!" Travis was jumping up and down. Some campers that were passing by just rolled their eyes. They were used to the random and odd behavior of the Stoll brothers.

"That's not fair! You were always better at not blinking!" Connor whined.

Travis didn't hear him; he was going around Connor doing his happy dance while chanting, "Operation Omelet. Operation Omelet. Yea. Operation Omelet. Oper-"

"What are you doing?"

Travis and Connor looked up.

"Oh no!" Travis squeaked. "It's scariest,"

"Most terrifying," Connor looked equally distressed.

"Most ferocious," Travis and Connor were holding each other tightly.

"…Twelve-year old Nico!" They shouted and fell down together laughing their heads off.

"Hey," Nico protested. "I'm thirteen now."

"Oh yea?" Connor looked at Nico, "Since when?"

"Since I decided to be." Travis and Connor began laughing again. Nico had to shout to be heard, "What's Operation Omelet?"

"What's this about an omelet?"

"Yea, I'm hungry."

Travis and Connor looked up again to see, Annabeth and Percy walk up. They were each in full battle amour and seating like crazy. Now they are what you call scary, terrifying, and ferocious. Even if they looked like they were slobbered on by Mrs. O'Leary.

Annabeth looked at Percy, "Mrs. O'Leary just gave us the most disgusting dog kiss in the world and you're hungry?"

Percy just shrugged, "I like omelets. Especially if they're blue."

"That's just weird."

"I hate to interrupt you guys, but," Connor interrupted, "My brother and I have some business to attend to."

They began to turn when Connor felt a hand on his arm.

"Wait." Connor turned his head to see Nico. "What is Operation Omelet?"

Travis and Annabeth narrowed their eyes. "Why do you want to know?" Travis asked at the same time Annabeth asked, "What are you guys planning?"

"Look guys," all heads turned to Percy, "I understand that you guys are Hermes kids and you need to pull some pranks. It's part of your character. I understand. But we're getting ready for a war, okay? A war. A flat out war against the Titans. I don't think a prank is the best thing right now. We all need to be focused and preparing for it. Maybe after it's all over you can do whatever you want to the omelets, okay?"

All was silent as everyone stared at Percy. Finally, Annabeth broke the silence. "Wow Percy. That was…"

"Amazing?" Travis suggested.

"Cute?" Connor asked. Annabeth glared at him for that.

"Un-Percy-like?" Nico thought.

"Hey!" Percy protested to Nico. "I can be smart sometimes!"

"But not smart enough to realize Annabeth likes you," Travis whispered to Connor, who snorted in agreement.

"That's it!" Annabeth exclaimed. "That's the most intellectual thing I've heard you say!"

"Uh, thanks?" Percy gave Annabeth a 'was-that-a-compliment?' face before continuing on. "In that case, I have another intellectual thing to say."

"Is that so?" Travis asked.

"Yes." Percy turned his head toward Annabeth. "We need to take a shower. Like, now."

Annabeth looked down at herself, "Ugh, I agree."

Nico looked at Percy and Annabeth. "Together?" The funny thing is, Nico looked truthfully innocent while asking that question.

Travis and Connor were laughing again while Percy and Annabeth both blushed fiercely.

"No!" they shouted.

"Oh," was all Nico had to say.

Percy and Annabeth glared at Nico a bit longer (still blushing a deep red) before walking towards their cabin avoiding each other's gaze.

"Nico," Travis breathed, "For asking a question like that,"

"You're still twelve." Connor finished for his brother.

"No," Nico looked at the Stoll Brothers. "I just like making them flustered. Plus it's obvious they like each other. Well, obvious to everyone but each other." Nico smiled. It was actually pretty scary. "Did you see how much they blushed? That was hilarious!" He walked away laughing.

The Stoll Brothers looked at Nico as he walked away, each thinking the same thing. That is definitely a son of Hades.

"Hey Travis?" Connor asked a few minutes later.

"What's up Connor?"

"You were right. No one suspects a thing."

Travis grinned. "Operation Omelet in under way."

So how's that for the first chapter? I know that I had said that it was going to be a one-shot, but the Percy-Annabeth scene popped in my head and I had to write it. I'm not sure when I'll be updating, but I hope to update it at the same time as Camp Half-Blood, Oh Fun. Unfortunately, I think I only have one chapter left on that. I really enjoyed writing it. If I can think of any more to write, don't worry, I'll put it in! I'm open to ideas! Just PM me or review them. (not about the 'I'm a goddess thing. Any other problem that could arise is what I'm asking for.)

Oh, BTW, as you've noticed, this is no one's POV (so I guess its third person?) and it will probably continue that way for the rest of the story.

Read and Review :)
