Chapter 1

Third Person Limited: Katie

It was a beautiful summer day at Camp Half-Blood. The birds were chirping, flowers were blooming, the bee's were buzzing. The cabins were at their usual activities, the Ares cabin was practicing their battle moves, the Aphrodite cabin was fan-girling over Justin Bieber (the girls), the Apollo cabin was flirting around with the Aphrodite girls, the Athena cabin was studying, the Hermes cabin was pranking or stealing, and so on. It was such a calming summer day even the Ares kids weren't beating up anyone, until...

"Stoll!" Katie yelled from the shower room. Yep, normal day. She stomped out of the shower room, her face red in anger, or blue. She knocked roughly on the Hermes cabin.

Chris Rodriguez opened the door, and suppressed a chuckle once he saw Katie.

"Where are the Stolls?" she growled.

"Stolls!" Chris called.

"Who is it?" Connor asked.

"Killer Smurfette!" he yelled. Katie fumed in anger.

"Your turn..." Connor told Travis.

"But it's always my turn!" Travis whined.

"Exactly," Connor smirked.

Travis hesitated before he walked towards the door, where an impatient blue Katie was standing at.

He smirked once he saw her. "Hey Katie-Kat, or should I say Smurfette?"

"Blonde hair dye, really! And why in Hades name, would you put blue coloring in my lotion?" she exclaimed. That's right. Katie's skin was blue and her hair had been dyed blonde. The worst part is that she had decided to put on a white summer dress. Therefore, she looked like Smurfette.

"Aww come on Katie, why are you being so... blue?" he chuckled. Katie contained the thought of murdering him.

"You are a despicable jerk!" Katie screamed in frustration.

Travis only smirked, "Thanks."

"Ugh!" she exclaimed pulling her hair. She stomped away from the cabin, towards her own cabin. Campers chuckled while she passed, but Katie only send them dirty looks which made them shut up.

"Hey Katie..." Miranda noticed her appearance. "Your looking a little blue..."

Katie glared at her. "Stolls..." she muttered angrily.

"Come on let's get you cleaned up," Miranda tried not to chuckle.


It was around 6 PM, and the Aphrodite cabin had arranged a party at the lake for all the campers. Katie had finally managed to remove the blue color off her skin by taking an excessive number of showers and washed off the blonde hair dye. Miranda and her were planning to go to the party, as most of the campers were going.

"Come on Katie!" Miranda screamed impatiently as she waiting for Katie outside the bathroom's. "Were going to be late! Everyone is already heading there."

"Coming!" Katie screamed. She finally exited the bathroom. Katie was wearing a cute, green fringed bikini, with a white, transparent skirt over it. Her hair was held by a clip, creating a cascade of dark-brown wavy hair on her right shoulder. Miranda, on the other hand, was wearing a cute, pink polka-dotted bikini with a green skirt over it. Her dark hair was in a braid that fell over her shoulder.

"Why did you take so long?" Miranda exclaimed as they walked towards the lake.

"I still had some blonde hair," she rolled her eyes at the two Hermes' son's immaturity.

"You know, you look pretty cute with blonde hair," Miranda suggested.

"No way," Katie retorted. They both walked towards the dock where music was blazing through the radio at full-sound. There was a few campers dancing, others were swimming, playing volleyball in the lake, and some Aphrodite girls were sunbathing.

"Hey, I'm going to go play volleyball, you wanna join?" Miranda asked.

"Nah, I'm tired; I'll just enjoy the warmth of the sun, I'm not planning on going in the water anyways," Katie said as she placed her bag next to a chair that was perfectly placed next to a shadow, but in the sun.

"Suit yourself," Miranda replied and ran towards the volleyball game.

Katie lied down on the chair and closed her eyes enjoying the cool breeze, and the warm sun. Suddenly, a shadow blocked the view of the sun. Katie opened her eyes and a bucket of water was thrown over her head.

"What the..." she looked around and saw Travis running away next to Connor laughing. "Stolls..." she growled and started chasing them. "You guys are so going to pay for that!" she screamed after them.

That's when they both ran opposite directions. Katie was running so fast that when she tried to stop she slipped over the water and fell into the lake with a squeal. Once she resurfaced she turned to see two laughing Stoll brothers along with some other campers who were chuckling. She gritted her teeth in anger.

"Oh Katie..." Miranda chuckled and helped her out of the lake. "That was hilarious."

"Shut up," she snapped. Smiling Miranda handed her a towel and she covered herself.

"I hate them so much," she muttered.

"Come on now that your wet why don't we go for a swim?" Miranda suggested.

"I guess," Katie sighed glaring at the laughing twins. The other campers had apparently lost interest in the situation and now the brothers were laughing like maniacs alone.

Katie and Miranda swam around the peaceful lake. There was around nine campers swimming and playing around.

"Hey you wanna race?" Miranda asked.

"I just want to get to relax a bit, I've been so stressed out lately," Katie muttered closing her eyes.

"Alright, be right back, I'm hungry," Miranda said and swam away.

Katie relaxed in the water for a few minutes. She felt so peaceful. Then she felt something nuzzling against her leg.

"Miranda stop I know it's you," she muttered, but it kept nuzzling against her leg. She opened her eyes and saw a shark fin right in front of her. Her eyes widened in fear. She couldn't process everything because she instantly screamed 'shark' and swam towards land. Everyone looked at her in confusion. She sat down panting once she reached land. She then processed the fact that sharks only lived in the ocean, and she was in a lake. This could only mean one thing.

"Katie... are you alright?" Miranda asked. She was holding two plates of apple pie on her hands.

Katie didn't answer. Her face was red, not in embarrassment, but in anger. Everyone started laughing when Travis exited the lake smirking with a shark fin on his back. He high-fived Connor and joined in the laughing. "Stoll," Katie muttered in anger.

She got up and grabbed the apple pie from Miranda, who was staring at her in astonishment. Katie stomped over to Travis and Connor who were still laughing. Everyone else was now staring at Katie, knowing she was about to do something. Katie stopped right in front of Travis. He finally stopped laughing and looked at Katie.

"You. Are. A. Jerk." she muttered before throwing the pie at Travis' face. He stood frozen in shock. "Hope you enjoy your treat," she smiled and stomped towards her cabin. Everyone else watched as she walked angrily back to the Demeter cabin.

Miranda was the first to recover from her shock. "Katie!" she screamed and ran after her.
