Third Person:
It was normal at Camp Half-Blood. Normal in demigod standards. Demigods were at the Dining Pavilion for dinner. During the little feast, two bright lights appeared in the pavilion. It grabbed all the campers attention as two gods appeared. Apollo and Aphrodite. The Apollo campers waved at their dad while the Aphrodite children, minus Piper, checked on their clothes and make up to make sure they look beautiful/handsome in front of their mother. Other campers continued eating but stared at the god and goddess. Apollo stepped forward and spread his arms out.
"Hello Camp Half-Blood! Aphrodite and I teamed up and decided to do an activity that involves you guys!" We are screwed. Those three words were in everyone's head. Apollo put his arms down as Aphrodite stepped up. "We decided we should do-" enter a random drum roll that no one knows where it is coming from "KARAOKE!". Mostly, besides the Apollo campers, groaned. Aphrodite spoke up again. "We changed the campfire into a stage. You can sit anywhere on the grass and watch your fellow campers sing." More groans developed. An Apollo girl raised her hand. Apollo saw her hand and smiled.
"Yes Kayla?" Kayla put her hand down. "Are we going to choose our own song to sing?" Apollo clapped loudly out of no where. "Which reminds me, we are going to choose your songs!" Everyone groaned again. "ALSO! Your god parents will be watching you!" Then there were many arguments and yelling at the god and goddess. "QUIET!" Aphrodite yelled. Campers became quiet after Aphrodite's outburst. The goddess sighed in relief. "Better. All the yelling gives me headache. Anyways, I think dinner is over. Head over to the campfire. Your god parent is sitting down waiting for you." The campers grumbled and stood up. "Also-" Aphrodite started, "for the children of the minor gods, only Iris, Hebe, and Tyche were able to come. We are very sorry, we tried to get the others but they refused. They said they were busy." Besides for the Iris, Hebe, and Tyche children, the other kids for the minor gods were relieved since they don't want to embarrass themselves in front of their parent.
Demigods grumbled as they make their way to the campfire. They saw a long table that were seated by fourteen people. Automatically, they knew it was the gods. The twelve Olympians, minus Hera she didn't want to come, and the three minor goddesses. Demigods sat down on the grass in front of the stage. The stage was a big, rounded, wooden platform that has a small set of stairs from the right and left.
Apollo and Aphrodite appeared on the platform. "Now. Aphrodite and I are going to choose a demigod. I get to choose a song for the boys and Aphrodite get to choose a song for the girls." The females, besides the Aphrodite cabin, groaned. They bet Aphrodite will make them sing love songs. Aphrodite understanding the groans, she spoke up. "For the females, I am not going make you ALL sing a love songs. I will make you do love songs but not all of you." Groans turned into sighs and reliefs, but they still remembered she said 'not all'.
Apollo put his hand on his chest. "I am going to choose first since I made up this event. The first guy of this event is...PERCY JACKSON!" Percy looked up at Apollo and glared at him. Apollo looked away as the other campers snickered. The campers think highly of Percy if it's about strength or battle, but when it comes to other stuff like singing, cooking, or even to girls trying to make a move on Percy, yet he is oblivious to see that, they think low of him. Annabeth smiled and patted her boyfriend on the back as Percy groaned, stood up and walked up to the stage. He really wants to flip that sun god off. Apollo smiled as Percy glared.
"Okay Percy, you are going to sing this." Apollo gave him a flashcard of the song and artist. He made a microphone appear in his hand and handed it to Percy. He sighed and took it.
Aphrodite made two director type chairs appeared on the grass. Apollo and Aphrodite walked over to the chairs and sat down. Apollo snapped his fingers as the music started.
Percy inhale and exhaled as the first line of the song came up.
Some nights, I stay up cashing in my bad luck Demigods were shock that he sings very well than they thought.
Some nights, I call it a draw
Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle
Some nights, I wish they'd just fall off
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know anymore...
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah oh oh
Percy became more confident. Knowing the next line, he marched around the stage like he is a sergeant. This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for?
He stopped marching and stopped in the middle of the stage. Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype - save that for the black He points to the left side of the crowd and white and points to the right.
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked, but here they come again to jack my style He pretended to be angry
And that's alright; I found a martyr in my bed tonight
She stops my bones from wondering just looks around clueless who I am, who I am, who I am
Oh, who am I? mmm... mmm...
Well, some nights, Percy walks around the stage, looking like he is having fun. I wish that this all would end
He stops and put his free arm out. Cause I could use some friends for a change
And some nights, I'm scared you'll forget me again He made a sincere look and put his free hand on his heart.
Some nights, I always win, I always win...
But I still wake up, He pointed to the sky I still see your ghost
Put his hand down and shrugged. Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know... (come on)
So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?
(Come on)
No. When I see stars, when I see, when I see stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like this one, so come on
Oh, come on. Oh, come on, OH COME ON!
Well, that is it guys, that is all - five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands Percy shook his head, looking hopeless
This one is not for the folks at home He shook his head Sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
Knowing the next line, he acted all pissed and angry. Who the fudge wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?
My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she call "love"
When I look into my nephew's eyes... Percy closed his eyes and put his free hand on his heart
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible lies...ahhh..
He removed his hand from his chest. Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh
Oh woah, oh woah, oh woah, oh oh
Percy opened his eyes and looked at Annabeth in the crowd. The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about He pointed to Annabeth you and me then to him
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen Annabeth crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow when he sang that line
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance... oh...
After the song ended, the demigods cheered for Percy. Poseidon looked at his son with a proud look. Apollo got up from his chair, walked up to the stage, and stood next to person. "THAT WAS PERCY JACKSON EVERYONE!" Everyone clapped and the demigods cheered. "And you guys think he was going to suck." Some people rubbed their neck or looked away. I am feeling the love here, Percy thought. Apollo patted him on the back and motioned him to sit down. Percy walked off the stage and went to sit next to Annabeth. "So about the last couple lines of the song..." "Apollo chose it!" he quickly said in panic. Annabeth chuckled. "Seaweed Brain."
"NOW! It's Aphy's turn." Aphrodite looked at Apollo with a 'really?' look. "Really? Aphy?" Apollo shrugged. "It's shorter than Aphrodite." She sighed. "Now which female should I choose?" The girls groaned. "How about..."
That's it.
Hope you liked it
Which female camper do YOU want to go up on stage and sing?
See ya and BYE!
