Annabeth's POV

"So, what should we do first?" Silena asked with way to much enthusiasm.

Silena decided that the girls needed some bonding time so she invited Katie, Thalia, Lou Ellen, Piper, and me to a mandatory sleepover in the Aphrodite cabin. Beckendorf had created and underground room for her where we were staying.

No one answered. "Well I guess I'll choose for us, karaoke it is!"

I mentally groaned. I can't sing to save my life.

"Who's going first?" Lou Ellen asked.

"Thanks for volunteering Lou!" Silena smiled. Lou frowned.

"Fine. I'm singing Brave by Sara Bareilles."

You can be amazing
You can turn a phrase into a weapon or a drug
You can be the outcast
Or be the backlash of somebody's lack of love
Or you can start speaking up
Sometimes a shadow wins
But I wonder what would happen if you
Nothing's gonna hurt you the way that words do
And they settle 'neath your skin
Kept on the inside and no sunlight

Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

Say what you want to say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

Everybody's been there, everybody's been stared down
By the enemy
Fallen for the fear and done some disappearing
Bow down to the mighty
Don't run, stop holding your tongue
Maybe there's a way out of the cage where you live
Maybe one of these days you can let the light in
Show me how big your brave is

Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

Say what you want to say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

And since your history of silence
Won't do you any good
Did you think it would?
Let your words be anything but empty
Why don't you tell them the truth?

Say what you wanna say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

Say what you want to say
And let the words fall out
Honestly I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I wanna see you be brave

I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you
I just wanna see you

I knew Lou took choir in school and hated singing alone. She was awesome!

"Okay Lou! Nice job! Now you get to pick your next-"Silena started.

"Victim," Piper interrupted.

"Well that's one word for it," Silena jokes. "I was going to say performer but victim works too."

"Well whoopty-doo." Lou says with an evil grin on her face. I pray to the gods she doesn't pick me. "I choose…"

First multi-chapter story. Woot woot! So I'm hoping to make this about 10 – 15 chappies. Hope you like it!

Me: Hey Annabeth… Can you do something for me?

Me: Could you say the disclaimer?

Annabeth: Yeah sure. WILDFLOWERSXANDXCUPCAKES DOESN'T OWN PJO OR ANYTHING ELSE SHE MENTIONED!
