Hey! I decided to do a one shot where, it's Thalia's birthday. The ending is surprising. Zeus bashing, and a little bit of Thalico and Percabeth. Sorry, if any character is Ooc
It was almost the end of summer and since Thalia quit the hunt (she didn't want her friends to die, while she lived on,) it was her birthday. Annabeth decided she needed a party. And thanks to Dionysus, who claimed it was his present to "Tina", the party had music, snacks, and drinks. On the beach of Camp-Half Blood, Annabeth and the Hephaestus cabin designed and built a stage and other stuff. The whole camp was invited, and people were playing in the water, or the sand. Everything was perfect, except for Thalia's expression...sad. Nico walked over to Thalia.
"What's wrong? Don't like the party?"
"Oh,no. The party's wonderful, you can obviously tell it's Annabeth's work. It's just, don't you think Zeus would remember his own daughter's birthday . Poseidon came for Percy's, and Hades came for yours. But it's okay, he probably doesn't care, then added, "I love this song, come di Angelo, I 'm not going to let my over dramatic lightning obsessed father, get in the way."
Nico wasn't convinced, but let Thalia drag him to where the rest of the gang was.
"Time for presents," said Annabeth
"I want to go first, I want to go first!" Percy said jumping up and down. Thalia rolled her eyes. Percy gave her a blue bag. Inside was a t-shirt that had 2 stick figures, with one holding the other's back. But Percy demigod-ified It said "I got your back in a fight."
"Thanks Kelp head."
Next Annnabeth pulled out a box. "It's a bracelet that turns into a dagger"
"Thanks Annie, I love it."
Rachel gave her 2 paintings, on of her pine, and another of Nico, Annabeth, Percy, and Thalia.
"Thanks."
Last was Nico who whipped out, from gods knows where, a bouquet of different flowers. Thalia instantly blushed, as did Nico.
"From Persephone's garden."
"Thanks"
"Oh and here," he said, handing her two Green Day albums. 21st Century Breakdown and American Idiot.
"Thank you so much Nico! These were the two I didn't have."
Thalia was then very surprised when Sunny, a 6 year old daughter of Apollo came up to her and gave her a hand drawn card.
"Happy Birthday 'Lia." Only Sunny could call Thalia that.
Suddenly, Iris flashed in. "Hi Thalia, here's a satchel with skittles inside."
The satchel said R.O.F.L, but instead of Rainbow Organic Food & Lifestyle, it said Rolling on the floor laughing.
"Ummm, thanks Iris." With that Iris flashed out.
Next Artemis and Athena came.
"Hello Thalia," Artemis didn't resent Thalia because she didn't quit the hunt of a boy, "This is a sculpture of a deer, I thought you might like it."
"Thanks Artie."
Artemis half-heartedly glared. Athena came up to Thalia and gave her a sculpture of an owl. Then walked over to where Percy and Annabeth were and said
"You better watch out sea-spawn," and flashed out. Artemis also, then Aphrodite and Hephaestus popped in.
"Thalia! Happy Birthday darling, here are some new outfits," seeing Thalia's face she quickly added, "they're your style, just see."
Thalia opened the bag and sure enough the clothes were her style. Then Hephaestus presented her with a what he called "monster-proof cellphone"
They left and Hestia flashed in, and gave Thalia a scrapbook. "for your camp memories, they are the best things."
"Thank you Aunt Hestia," Thalia said while giving her a hug. Hestia seemed surprised but happy nonetheless. Thalia was very surprised when Ares came gave her a spear, then walked up to Clarisse, and told her, "Kid, I really care, just hard to show." Clarisse was to shocked to answer.
Demeter came in, handed Thalia a bag of Cheerios and left.
"well then," Percy said.
"Seaweed Brain," Annabeth muttered
"But your seaweed brain" He replied.
"Oh like gag me a spoon," Nico said in a girly voice
"Agreed," Thalia said laughing.
Then Hades and Poseidon came, saying that their gift would arrive later.
Apollo and Hermes came, Hermes gave Thalia super fast combat boots. Apollo said "You're gift will be here in a moment." Then three dudes appeared, and Thalia and Nico's jaws dropped. Percy being a kelp face said, "You guys look familiar, wait, your faces are plastered over Thalia's cabin." Thalia's face went red.
"Ummm, I'm Billie Joe, you know*", Thalia started screaming like a fangirl.
"OH MY GODS! IT'S GREEN DAY! THANK YOU SO MUCH APOLLO!"
"You guys are demigods?" Annabeth questioned.
"Yup, sons of Apollo, you know." Billie Joe answered.
Green Day then asked Thalia and Nico to come sing with them on the stage. Needless to say, they said yes. Thalia picked a song, Homecoming, but just parts of it.
"This song's for Thalia! Happy birthday!"
They started singing.
"My heart is beating from me
I am standing all alone
Please call me only if you are coming home
Waste another year flies by
Waste a night or two
You taught me how to live" Billie sang
"Well, nobody cares
Well, nobody cares
Does anyone care if nobody cares?
Well, nobody cares
Well, nobody cares
Does anyone care if nobody cares?" Thalia sang
"Somebody get me out of here
Anybody get me out of here
Somebody get me out of here
Get me the heck right out of here" Nico sang
"I fell asleep while watching Spike TV
After 10 cups of coffee and you're still not here
Dreaming of a song but something went wrong
And you can't tell anyone 'cuz no one's here
Left me here alone and I should've stayed home
After 10 cups of coffee, I'm thinking
(Where'd you go?)
Nobody likes you
Everyone left you
(Where'd you go?)
They're all out without you
Havin' fun
(Where'd you go?)
Everyone left you
Nobody likes you
(Where'd you go?)
They're all out without you
Havin' fun
(Where'd you go, go, go ,go)" Thalia and Nico sang
The members of Green Day, had to admit that Thalia and Nico were really good singers.
'Here they come marching down the street
Like a desperation murmur of a heart beat
Coming back from the edge of town
Underneath their feets
There time has come and it's going nowhere
Nobody ever said that life was fair now
Go-carts and guns are treasures they will bear
In the summer heat
The world is spinning round and round out of control again
The 7-11 to the fear of breaking down
So send my love a letter bomb and visit me in hell
We're the ones going
Home
We're coming home again
Home
We're coming home again" They all finished.
And they went to the next song which only Green Day sung.
"This is for Thalia, again, you know."
Little girl, little girl
Why are you crying?
Inside your restless soul
Your heart is dying
Little one, little one
Your soul is purging
Of love and razor blades
Your blood is surging
Runaway
From the river to the street
And find yourself with your face in the gutter
You're a stray for the salvation army
There is no place like home
When you got no place to go
Little girl, little girl
Your life is calling
The charlatans and saints
Of your abandon
Little one, little one
The sky is falling
Your lifeboat of deception
Is now sailing
In the wake all the way
No rhyme or reason
Your bloodshot eyes
Will show your heart of treason
Little girl, little girl
You dirty liar
You're just a junkie
Preaching to the choir
Runaway
From the river to the street
And find yourself with your face in the gutter
You're a stray for the salvation army
There is no place like home
When you got no place to go
The traces of blood
Always follow you home
Like the mascara tears
From your getaway
(Gloria!)
You're walking with blisters
And running with shears
So unholy
Sister of grace
Runaway
From the river to the street
And Find yourself with your face in the gutter
You're a stray from the salvation army
There is no place like home
After a few more of Thalia's (A/N: mine too), favorite songs, like Boulevard of Broken Dreams, and 21st Century break down, and Holiday, Green Day, Apollo, and Hermes left.
It was almost the end of dinner when a sign appeared over Thalia's head. A trident, with a faint outline of a helmet. Gasps and whispers were heard.
"Isn't she already claimed?"
"Poseidon and Hades?"
And Annabeth gasped,"Their gifts."
Suddenly a flash of light appeared and the big three were standing there.
"You dare claim my calmed child?!" That was Zeus
"You didn't care!" Poseidon
"Yes, you even forgot her birthday!" Hades
The campers were watching them like a tennis match
"What?"
"Yeah," said Nico and Percy, "you did, even Hera didn't, she sent her cow poop, but at least she remembered!"
"There's nothing you can do father, it's an ancient law." Athena said popping in, for once siding with her uncles, rather her father.
"She is is right," Chiron stated, "the ancient laws say that if a demigod is 'abandoned' and openly states it, any god has the right to claim him or her, if they are at the age of 16."
"Yeah Zeus, can't argue with ancient laws." Poseidon said childishly
The camp laughed
"Thalia Grace, you know are the adopted daughter of Poseidon." Chiron said.
"And Thalia I will let you date Nico without objection, as you are my 'honorary' daughter." Hades said
"More like daughter-in-law" The Stolls whispered.
Zeus flashed out with a 'humph'.
"This really is the best birthday present ever." Thalia said.
"Even more than us?" Billie Joe said popping in from who knows where.
"That's a hard question, but I going to have to say yes, it's better than you."
"Crap" He said
The gang, Poseidon, and Hades all went to the beach, for the rest of the day. Chiron didn't even object.
How was that? Tell me in a review.
*If you have seen any Billie Joe Armstrong interview, you will know he says "You know" a lot. So I emphasized it.
Oh and I love Green Day's music!
Please review!
