Demigod Camp
What would happen if Percy and Jason met at a huge camp for demigods in the summer? Will the camps clash or will sparks fly?
PERCY
Percy was squashed on a seat on a bus next to Grover and Annabeth. They were on their way from Camp Half Blood to go the international demigod camp. There was going to be hundreds of demigods attending this one camp this summer. However, Percy wasn't exactly feeling the excitement whilst on the bus. Ever had 60 ADHD kids all trained to kill monsters on a double decker bus?
"Whose idea was this to get the bus to camp?" asked Percy but there was no reply. Grover was hunched over his phone, holding it like it was the most precious thing on earth. Annabeth, of course was engrossed in a book. Some things never change.
Hearing yet another message beep on Grover's phone, Percy finally fed up of the noise, leant over and grabbed his phone.
"Give it back Percy!" argues Grover, his voice getting more and more high pitched. Percy rolled his eyes and tossed it back to Grover. Once again he huddled up to the screen, every now and then casting Percy deep looks of suspicion. Geez, defensive much?
There was shrieks from all around Percy.
"Give it back Chris," yells Clarisse menacingly. Her boyfriend laughed and waved the item in front of her face. This of course only made her more mad and her screams louder. Leo Valdez and Piper Mclean were sat at the back. Irritated shouts of "Beauty Queen" or "Repair Boy" could be heard.
Percy groaned and pushed his hair out of his eyes. His dark brown hair always seemed to flop messily in front of his eyes. This action, made Annabet glance up from her huge reading novel. Percy couldn't belive anyone would want to read it, but he knew if Annabeth wanted to read it (despite being dyslexic) she would read it. She threw him a grin.
"Now what's up Percy?"
Percy looked at his girlfriend. Her curly blonde hair was tied in a messy ponytail and her eyes had dark rings underneath them but Percy thought she still looked as amazing as ever.
He returned her grin half-heartedly. "Honestly, I'm not so sure how much more of this bus journey I can take." He explained. Annabeth raised her eyebrow.
"Percy, we are going to be there in a minute, it's not like your going to spend the rest of your life on this bus."
Percy stumbled, "No, I meant its so boring-"
Annabeth cut him off, "I know what you mean Seaweed Brain. Besides we're actually here! We can see the signs!"
Percy sat up straight, whacking his elbow into Grover's arm.
'Hey Perce, what the heck dude? I was text-"
"Texting Juniper, we know," choursed Annabeth and Percy in unison. Grover had asked Juniper to go out with him a few weeks ago and the two had been inseperable ever since. Juniper wasn't on the bus with them as she had to attend her parents wedding but she would be arriving at the camp in a few days.
Percy looked out the window and gave a satisfied grin. Outside was sunny and bright, with huge fields and assault courses loomed in the distnce. There were demigods everywhere. With so many camps attending, there was an array of colours.
Percy jumped through the bus doors with Annabeth and Grover close behind him.
"FREEDOM!" Percy yelled, causing many demigods to turn and give him a strange look. Percy didn't care, he was that glad to be off the bus. He could feel his energy returning to him and suddenly, his bad mood from before was gone. Hey, maybe the bus was diminushing his energy! Maybe it was slowly draining all the energy and used it for an evil plan! Percy shivered. An evil bus! Yes, that's what it was. Well he would teach the bus a lesson, he would go and stab it so it wouldn't take his energy, he would…
"PERCY!" snaps Grover, interrupting his train of thought. Percy blinked and looked up confused.
"Sorry man, what were you saying?"he asked sheepishly. Grover just loked at him and rolled his eyes.
"Have you not been listening to a word that I've been saying? I give up! You're hopeless! I have no idea how Annabeth puts up with you!"
Speaking of Annabeth, where was she? Percy scanned his eyes around the room, searching for the mop of blonde curls. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw her talking to Piper and Thalia. Thailia was dressed in dark jeans and black hoodie on top of her orange camp t-shirt. She saw Percy staring and smirked knowingly, towards Annabeth. Percy could tell they were planning something. That much was obvious.
Just then, a loud gruff voice came through the speakers. Percy expected to see some really tall gruff man but in fact the person holding the microphone was…
"Coach Hedge?" asked Piper in surprise. "I didn't know you were running this camp. " It was a well-known, fact that the five foot zero, Coach Hedge worked for Piper's dad, Tristan Mclean. Yes, THE Tristan McLean. Percy was surprised Piper put up with all the attention she got from her dad. She hated being the centre of attention. Yet despite all this she was the head councellor of cabin 10, Aphrodite. He supposed she'd gotten used to it.
Coach Hedge grinned and raised his fist towads the campers at Camp Half Bood. They all cheered in response. A group of demigods in purple t-shirts looked at them strangely as some did to Percy before. Percy immediately felt defensive of his camp. So what if they were a little loud? It was better then being too serious. The cluster of demigods in purple t-shirts were all stood up straight, eyes forward.
They look like they're going to march into battle thought Percy wonderingly. He realised he must have zoned out again. Well short attention spans do that to you. Everyone was now pushing and racing towards a big white tent. He grabbed Grover's arm and pulled him towards Annabeth, Thalia, Piper and Leo.
