Okay, so I saw SO MANY one-shots where everyone took quotes from HoO. Which is TOTALLY cool. But...they were only one-shots. So what am I gonna do? I'm gonna make a COLLECTION of one-shots, where the seeds will be direct (ish) quotes from HoO. I think I'm gonna start off with BoO, because it's beside me. XD Enjoy! And if you made a oneshot/story with a similar plot, IT IS COINCIDENTAL. So PLEASE don't go in the reviews saying "You copied me/someone else!" cause I'd never do that. Please and thank yous! :D

NOTE: None of the one-shots are related to each other, and no references will be made. If you see me add Pt 1, THEN you know it'll be continued. Just saying.

EDIT: The summary above and the summary below will be different. (Please don't) sue me. The summary above is shortened just to catch your attention. The summary below is...oh whatever. Bottom line, both summaries are different.

Quote of the Chapter: As for her [Piper McLean] charmspeak, she'd gotten so powerful it made Leo nervous. If she told him to eat his vegetables, he might actually do it.

Summary: Piper McLean has had enough. It's been going on for too long, and she's putting her foot down. Be careful Leo...

Book: Blood of Olympus, Paragraph 5 (I think), sentence 5 (I think), page 96.

Set: Somewhere in BoO. Before August 1st.

POV: No one in particular.

Everyone was tense. Sure, they all battled all kinds of monsters, titans, giants, and all those crazy things. They all thought they'd seen it all.

Oh, how wrong they were.

Because before them, there was a much more challenging battle. A battle no one could foretell.

Except, maybe the Fates. Because...it was Fate who was going to decide who would win this battle.

A battle of willpower.

As the Seven peered into the mess hall, they could see Piper McLean, with her hands on her hips, facing one of her most difficult problems. And they could see Leo Valdez, with his hands on his hips, his face a little pale, but his eyes filled with insane determination.

"Leo Valdez, you can't live you're life eating Fonzies and junk food. Sit down and eat your vegetables."

Their eyes turned to Leo, and his face paled a little more. It was like a Ping Pong game. Their eyes switched demigods with every comeback.

"I...I refuse to eat my vegetables, Beauty Queen. You might as well stop trying, because the day I eat my vegetables is the day...uh...the day I lose my fire. It's not going to happen."

"Don't say that, then you'll lose your fire." Piper said, straining to be calm.

"Okay then. The day I eat my vegetables is the day I lose my ability to be super freaking awesome. Impossible." He stuck his tongue out at her, acting childish (which is typical because, well, it's Leo.)

They all looked at Piper, who was fuming.

"Leo, if you don't eat that carrot right now, I will personally shred all your Team Leo shirts."

If it was possible, Leo paled more. Everyone had the same thoughts.

When will he crack?

Leo slowly reached for the carrot. The orange carrot that would be the cause of Leos death. Poisoned by the orange food of healthiness (ew). Piper smiled with satisfaction. He took hold of the carrot and was about to eat it, was about to take the smallest bite...

...until he accidentally dropped it.

"Oops! Sorry Beauty Queen, but not today! Oh, would you look at the time? Time to check up on the engine!"

Before Piper could say anything, he dashed out of the mess hall, with incredible speed.

"LEO VALDEZ! You come back here THIS INSTANCE!" she screamed, running after him. The rest of the crew rushed after both of them, wanting to see the end of the argument. And also to be there if someone was severely hurt. Which was likely.

"How long do you think Leo will be able to handle her charmspeak?" asked Hazel, her eyes filled with worry.

"I don't know. Pipers charmspeak is incredibly powerful, but so is Leos willpower and determination. But...he's been hit with a lot of charmspeak. I don't think he'll be able to hold out any longer." replied Jason, his voice also filled with worry.

They all then saw Piper banging on the doors of the engine room, yelling curses and demands. Hazel nearly fainted at the sight.

"Leo Valdez! Open the BLEEPING door before I BLEEPING beat you to a BLEEPING pulp! OPEN THE STUPID BLEEPING DOOR! DON'T YOU BLEEPING DARE LOCK YOURSELF IN THERE! I WILL BLEEPING BREAK THIS BLEEPING DOOR IF YOU DON'T BLEEPING OPEN IT!"

Hazel then actually fainted. Frank caught her, and carried her to her cabin. Bridal style. Frank didn't notice until he put her in bed. He didn't talk to Hazel for the rest of the day, always red in the face.

Also, due to circumstances, we have bleeped some words for your sake. Thank you.

"Not listening! I've got something in my ear. Oh no, I've got wax in my ears! CAN'T HEAR YOU! What a shame, am I right?"

Piper slowly turned around, and everyone saw deep purple flames that weren't there flicker around Piper. Her eyes shone with scarlet light. Even Percy was scared, and he went through Tartarus itself. Nothing is more traumatizing than a daughter of Aphrodite angry. And when we mean angry, we mean angry.

"Guys..."

Then they all ran away. Like men.

She sighed. Where can you find any good help? Piper thought as she turned to face the locked door.

"Hey there, metal door..." she started, feeling awkward. I mean seriously, who else speaks to inanimate objects.

"Isn't it a nice day to just unlock yourself? Yes, it is. Would you oh so kindly unlock please?"

It worked. She heard clicks, and (for a dramatic entrance, since she is, after all, a daughter of Aphrodite) she kicked the door open.

Empty. She found a voice recorder, and a note.

Beauty Queen,
Ha, sorry for not eating my vegetables.

She scoffed. No way Leo would be sorry.

Okay, not really. Actually, I'm glad I didn't eat it. I would've died!

Now she rolled her eyes. Yes, she was still mad, but Piper couldn't help it that her anger was draining while reading the note. But it was draining very, very, very slowly.

I have to check up on the engine. Like,the deeper part of the engine. Won't be back until I remember to eat, or I just have to go to the bathroom. Whichever comes first. So sorry, but it was fun- uh, I mean not fun fighting with you like that.

Yours in demigodishness and all that,

Leo Valdez, Supreme Commander of the Argo II, Bad Boy Supreme

Peace out! :D

Piper chuckled.

"Well played Leo, well played. I'll get you, sooner or later."

How was that? Review me quotes or ideas so I can update faster! Do the three R's! Read, Review, and...uh...Recollect? XD I dunno... How about you Follow and Favourite while you're at it? ;)

Anyways, see ya later, my fellow demigods!

No flames please! Constructive criticism would do better, thank you. Instead of complaining, tell me how I can make the story better and I'll do my best! :D :D :D
