I'm a WHAT!?!
Chapter 1
A/N: I don't own Percy, Grover, Annabeth, or Thalia or even Camp Half-Blood. In fact, the only things in this story I do own are the characters below and the plot line. Depressing, isn't it.

I sighed and played with my long, blonde hair as I sat in my mom's Latin class. This nine weeks was basically cake for me because we were just studying the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses and myths… I already knew all the information. I'd been addicted to mythology since I was old enough to read. I grinned over at my best friend, Audrey Henson, who was only slightly less bored than I. She smiled back and nodded to my desk. There was a little slip of paper on it and I quickly snatched it up, even though my mom really didn't care if we passed notes or not. It read:
"So Luce, what do you think of the newbie?"
I scribbled a quick reply. "OMG! It's like we were separated at birth! Annabeth is so sweet and she loves reading and mythology! She and I will get along great, I'm sure! Though she'll never take your place!"
"Ha, I know. I'm irreplaceable! But so are you! You about comatose yet?"
"Definitely! Urgh! When is 8th period again?"
"Shoot, you know I have no idea. But I think you should invite Annabeth over for the party Friday." I grinned at Audrey, nodding my head, and stuck my tongue out at her. She turned away from me, grinning, and flipped me off nonchalantly. I smiled and grabbed a new sheet of paper.
On it, I wrote:
"Hey Annabeth, Audrey, a couple others, and I are having a sleepover Friday at my house. A few guys are coming over too. Wanna come?" I tossed it onto Annabeth's desk in front of me and she turned and smiled at me.
In a few minutes, Annabeth had scrawled a reply and tossed it back. "Sure! Mind if I bring along 3 more people? They're new too and they really need to meet some of the other people around here."
"No problem! Who do you want to bring? And if you have a cell I'll need your number so we can arrange everything."
"I don't have a cell, sorry… If it's okay with you, I wanna invite Percy, Thalia, and Grover. They're all really nice and they're the only people I really know here. We all used to go to the same school in New York." I smiled as I read it. I already knew they were nice. All four of them were in Band with me, Percy and Grover were in my Art class next period and Thalia was in my Geography class 4th period.
"No problem! I have next period with Percy and Grover so I'll invite them then. Chanda ought to be cool with a few more people over. It's close to summer break so she's expecting a lot of kids over."
"Chanda?"
"Mrs. Sullivan. She's my mom, but her first name is Chanda."
"Oh! Why do you call her by her first name?"
"A lot of my friends call their parents by their first names too, so I fell into the habit."
"Oh, lol that's cool. Hey, the bell's about to ring. Shouldn't we start packing?"
"Nah… She'll call our next class for us if we're taking too long. Plus it's just gonna be 8th period… No body really ever counts tardies this period."
"Oh okay. Oh dang! I just remembered! Thalia has a cell! Her number is 1-459-3368! There's the bell! Bye Luce! We're all staying with Thalia right now, so just text her and you'll have us all taken care of."
I smiled again. "Bye Annabeth! Bye Audrey!" I called as I walked ever so slowly down the hall towards the Art room. I grinned when I saw my friend Mitchell already in class, playing with clay as he talked with Percy and Grover. I sat down in front of Mitchell and beside Grover and started putting the finishing touches on my vase. It was turning out better than the last one so far. I ran around the table and hugged Mitchell, getting clay dust all in his spikey hair, making him turn red and Grover and Percy laugh hysterically.
"Knock it off would ya Lucy!" Mitchell growled, still red.
"Sure thing Mitch." I growled back.
"I thought I told you never to call me that again." he hissed.
"You did, but I told you to never call me Lucy. I consider it payback." I grinned. Then I threw an arm around Percy too and smiled at Grover. "Which reminds me, somehow… You three are all invited over to my house Friday for a party. Annabeth and Thalia are invited too so no worries you two." I said grinning at Percy and Grover.
"Awesome. Who else is coming?" Grover asked, smiling at me from under his Rasta hat.
"Well… Let's see…" I said, ticking off names on my fingers as I spoke, "Clarissa Michaels, Audrey Henson, Mitchell Collebri, Jay Jones, Sam Rockwell, Thalia, Damien Kingsley, Annabeth, you, Percy, and Zoey Reed. So that's twelve of us!" Percy whistled under his breath.
"That's an awful lot of people…" he said tentatively.
"Nah… I've had bigger parties. Anyway, I have Thalia's cell so we'll be able to arrange things easier."
"Oh cool. Annabeth tell you that we're all staying with Thalia?" Grover asked.
"Yeah…. I think that Audrey's gonna drive her car and help me pick up some people. I'll pick you guys up plus Mitchell and Jay, so Clarissa and the others will ride with Audrey." I yawned as I moved back around to my seat, but was grabbed around the waist by Mitchell, which made me squeal. "Engh! Mi-Mitchell! Lemme' GO!"
"NEVERRRRR!!!!!" he shouted.
"GROVER! PERCY!!! HELP!" I screamed, my arms waving frantically as he began to tickle me mercilessly.
"Not it!" Percy and Grover shouted. Grover was just a bit late though.
"Dang!" Grover said, sighing.
"Sorry, but it's your turn, Grover." Percy said smiling. As you can probably tell, this was a regular occurrence with us.
"C'mon Mitchell, you gotta let her go. Hamilton is gonna freak if this keeps up much longer." Grover said, trying to reason with the boy who was bringing tears to my eyes.
"So. What's she gonna do? Hamilton won't do anything." Mitchell said, tickling me harder.
"M-Mitch-ell! I-if you d-don't st-stop it, an-and let me go, I-I'll bite you!" I screamed and took a snap at him.
"Dude! Don't test her! We don't want her to go all cannibal on us!" Grover said, his arms waving frantically in the air.
"Keh! Like she's gonna do anything! Hey! Ow!" Mitchell yelled as I bit into his arm a little hard. He let me go then and I smiled at him and went back around to sit by Grover.
"That was awesome Grover!" I laughed as I held out my fist. Grover touched my fist with his and laughed.
"Hey, are you gonna have some vegetables there at the party? I'm a vegetarian…" Grover smiled.
"Sure dude. Chanda was gonna buy pizza so we'll order a few veggie pizzas too." And then the dismissal bell rang. "Bye guys!" I grinned and ran for my tiny car. Regan and I met up at the local gym and worked out for a solid hour before going to her house, showering, and doing homework. When all that was done, I jumped into my car again and headed home.
Later that night, I sat on my bed and picked up my cell phone. I dialed the number that Annabeth gave me and waited for Thalia to pick up.
"Hello?"
"Thalia?"
"Oh, hey Luce! Annabeth said you might call."
"Yeah, did she tell you about the party?"
"Yep! I already got permission for us, so it's all good."
"Haha cool. Well you guys make sure to bring swimsuits. And this is gonna be a co-ed slumber party, so they guys need to bring all their stuff too. All the boys are staying in the guest room and the girls will be with me in my room."
"Sounds awesome, but Grover can't swim."
"Oh, that's too bad… We don't have to go swimming though."
"That would be great. So, who's picking us up?"
"Well I'm gonna take you guys, Mitchell, and Jay to my house straight from school in my car and Audrey's bringing the others in hers."
"Great! Well I'll see you tomorrow."
"Okay. You guys bring your stuff to my car in the morning and we'll pack it in the trunk."
"Sounds good. Bye Luce."
"Bye Thalia." I smiled as I hung up and got ready for bed.
With Thalia and the gang ~ Thalia POV
I grinned at my cell phone. "So it's all set you guys." I smiled around at Percy, Grover, and Annabeth.
"Grover, are you sure the others are Half-bloods too?" Annabeth said, looking at him with an eyebrow quirked up.
"I'm positive, Annabeth. Everyone that's coming is a Half-blood. It's really quite odd how all the Half-bloods in the entire school banded together without realizing it." he said and smiled at her. "They just made our job tons easier."
"You can say that again…" Percy said and wrapped an arm around Annabeth's shoulder. She smiled at him.
"So…. Let's get packing you guys!" I said, enthusiastically.
"What's to pack? We just need to take a few things out of our suitcases and we're set." Grover grinned.
"I wonder if Luce's mom knows that she's a Half-blood…." I said, quietly.
"Pfft. I'd be surprised if she didn't. She's the LATIN teacher, Thalia. Of course she'd know. How could she not?" Annabeth said.
"Okay, okay. It was a stupid question. Sue me." I scowled.
Back to Luce POV
The next day, I waited beside my car, chatting anxiously with Audrey while the others slowly walked over to us with sleepy steps from the van Grover drove. They were all weighted down with luggage. I smiled at them and grabbed several armfuls of bags as Audrey helped them load everything into my small trunk.
"So, you guys ready for Friday to be over so we can party or what?" Audrey laughed as she watched Percy rub the sleep from his eyes.
"Yeah!" Thalia said happily. She seemed the only one really awake.
The day sped by and it seemed like all that we could talk about was the party. Before I knew it, it was time to gather everyone up and head home. I had to skip the gym today, but I figured I'd get in the exercise any way. Mitchell climbed into the passenger seat as Jay, Thalia, Grover, Annabeth, and Percy squished into the backseat. We were home in 15 minutes and we all burst out of the car with relief just as Audrey drove up behind us and they repeated our little scene.
"Well…. Welcome to La Casa de Sullivan." I said, grinning. All my friends who'd never been over, gushed for a bit but then settled down. "Okay, so let's all get inside and I'll show you guys where you'll be sleeping." I led them all into my house and stood in the half hallway that separated my room from the guest room. "All the girls go into my room on the right and all the boys go into the guest room on the left. In between them is the bathroom." I smiled as everyone went as I directed and then came back out.
For a while we all just hung out, listening to music, watching TV, walking around, or just talking. About 20 minutes later though, Chanda came home with the 12 pizzas. 3 were pepperoni, 3 cheese, 3 were veggie, and the last 3 were dessert pizzas. We all attacked them fiercely and were chowing down on them when Grover spoke up. "So… Do any of you know who both of your parents are?"
"Well…Um… Yeah…" We all nodded.
"No, you don't. I guarantee it…" Grover said not looking at us. Thalia, Percy, and Annabeth looked down and away too.
"W-What do you mean, Grover?" I asked, getting an odd feeling in my chest.
"I mean, all of you only know HALF of your parentage…" he said, looking up at us all with serious brown eyes. He swallowed hard. "You're all the half human children of the Greek gods and goddesses. Also known as Demigods or Half-bloods. Percy, Annabeth, and Thalia are all Half-bloods too… While I'm a Satyr." He looked at us gravely. "We've come to take you to Camp Half-blood."
