Valdez and the Kanes

DISCLAIMER: I sadly do not own PJO or TKC *sob*

Travis POV

It was April Fool's Day, and I was looking for somebody to prank. I scanned the crowd.

Eeny Meeny Miney Moe. Catch a tiger by it's toe-

"Hey Valdez!" Connor, sitting beside me, shouted. "Come 'ere!" Oh. First victim.

He winced. "Dude, you're probably gonna play some bloody prank on me."

Connor's smile faltered for a second, but it was on again after a few seconds.

"Wanna play dares?"

"Y-" He started to say, soon interupped by series of voices.

"Got your wallet!"

"Got your toolbelt!"

"Got your, uh, machine thing."

It was Connor's time to wince. "Dude," he told his half-siblings annoyingly. "That was for real." But there was a hint of mischeviousness that would happen in any Hermes child. Today was going to be fun. And it was only the beginning.

Leo POV

I followed Travis and Connor outside of the cafeteria.

"Now I dare you to walk across the archery pavement."

I jumped. "Seriously?" But I eventually did. On my first step, I tripped over a rope and landed flat on my face. "Ow," I wheezed. "Not a happy camper."

I wiped my nose. I could see blood on my finger. "Thank you so much for giving me a nosebleed." Sarcasm.

I continued, eyeing the archers as I walked. My feet stepped on a trigger, and a piece of rope tighted around my feet. I felt a sharp, upwards pull. "Crap you!" I shouted. Loudly.

In a smaller voice I added, "I fucking hate April Fool's Day."

Then Travis made a very bad impersonation of Piper. "Valdez, how many times have I told you not to swear or cuss?"

I rolled my eyes. "Ha-ha. Very funny. Now put this damn rope down."

Across the archery field, I heard a startling, "Leo?!" And a mis-aimed arrow came shooting just just above me. Don't hit me don't hit me don't hit me-

R-rip.

The rope broke, and I came tumbling down from 10 meters off the ground.

Sadie POV

"Now, brother dear, we talked about this." I was once again arguing with my extremely annoying idiotic brother. "Your lesson plans are bor-ing."

He turned red, muttering, "And you expect a guy to suddenly fall out from the ceiling to change them?"

I rolled my eyes. "Thank you for being very sarcastic about-"

I didn't get to finish my sentence because I was interupped by a scream.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The distant voice was much clearer now. A circle of red opened of from the ceiling, and a boy about 15 fell down, smashing to the floor and sending a few shabti flying off. He lifted his head with his nose bleeding wildly. He sniffled and muttered, "So much for a double-nosebleed." He glanced up to me and Carter and asked, "Please remind me why I'm here." He said, a hint of sarcasm in his tone. "I don't think I know you guys."

I sighed. "And here, brother dear, is your guys who just fell from the ceiling."


Ooh cliffhanger! The next chapter will be Sadie's POV, and I'm considering to add LeoxSadie here hmm. Sorry for not updating for so long new chapter here I come! :)
