Percy Jackson
And the
The Giant Cookie
By: Patty Green
"There!" a girl named Winnie said.
I opened my eyes along with a dozen of other campers. What I saw was the weirdest thing ever to come to Camp Half-Blood, and trust me there have been some weird things. This was a huge, gigantic, monstrous-
"Cookie?" asked the camp trainer Chiron (yes the real one who trained Achilles, blah, blah, blah.)
"No", continued Winnie. "It's a big cookie!" I really wanted to say, "I really don't think 'big' covers it." But I didn't, because Winnie kinda scares me. She would scare you too if you knew her!
"Uh Winnie dear, please explain to me why you did this because I'm dying to know."
"Well I really don't know why"-
"Oh boy"
"But it was fun!"
"How did you make it?" Nico asked suddenly appearing from the crowd.
"I baked it of course." Winnie answered.
"No I mean where did you bake it?"
"An oven."
"What oven is big enough for you to bake that large of a cookie in?!"
"The oven on mount Olympus."
"You went to Olympus?" Annabeth asked. Annabeth is my friend… well… actually girlfriend; we've been going out for a few months now. Mostly outside of camp- because we started dating at the end of camp-, but we were called here for a special surprise. Now I know what that meant. And why it was Apollo who sent out the message. You see Apollo is Winnie's father, and he is so very proud of her, because she can read. We're told that when Winnie was a baby the doctor dropped her on her head, and messed up something in her brain causing her dyslexia to disappear. If you knew Winnie, you would start thinking-like most of us here at camp do- that that wasn't all the dropping on the head messed up. Any way she scares a lot of people including Hera.
"Ye"-
"What is this?!" As soon as I heard that voice a cold chill ran down my spine. Mr. D was our camp director forced to be here by Zeus because he broke some rule that I don't really feel like going into.
"It's my cookie!" Winnie answered him proudly. R.I.P Winnie.
"And it looks delicious, but what is it doing at my camp?"
"It's for everybody at camp Half-Blood!"
"Ah. And why did you decide to make this rather large dessert?"
"I got bored."
"And when you get bored, you bake big cookies?"
"Yes I do!"
"Uh-huh. Well now that that's settled let's play this flag game and go to bed"
So we played capture the flag. I was on Annabeth's team, along with the Demeter, the Hermes, and the Apollo cabin. Nothing fun happened except that we won. Addie- a girl in the Athena cabin- snuck around and got the flag back to the finish line, while the rest of us created a diversion. And then we all went to bed.
Gods, I really hate Demigod dreams. It was about Winnie's giant cookie. Yeah, I know weird. It was attacking camp and stepping on the cabins. I bolted upright in my bed and ran for the door, in my pajama pants and t-shirt. There was a lot of screaming as a large cookie rolled onto the Hecate cabin. Well just goes to show never fashion the chocolate chips on a cookie into a face, it may make the cookie come alive into something so evil you won't even believe it.
Yo, boss what's happening? My Pegasus Blackjack asked
"I don't know but it can't be good."
Just then the evil cookie destroyed the arena, the only place I could go to relax.
"Come on Blackjack" I said climbing up on him. "Let's go make this cookie crumble!"
