Me(Annie): I guess I have to say this. I, sadly, do not own PJO.
Percy: Thank the Gods
Me: What was that seaweed brain?
Percy: Nothing.
July: Anyone have any caf-pow?
Me: July, remember what happened last time you had caf-pow at a party...
July: It was awesome!
Me: You're right *Hands July caf-pow*
July: Sweet *Starts slurping caf-pow*
Me: Now as I was saying, I do own July, Annie, and Bob. Now to continue...

"Okay, the person going first is Cee Giagini! Costumes and props are allowed and will probably give you more points."
"Yes! I've always wanted to see how she can sing!" cried Annie. "What, I wanna know how good she is!" she said in response the weird looks.
"Sorry, to burst your bubble Annie, but the Drew tricked you. She meant they could make you over whenever they want, not just one makeover. They're in the closet, for some strange reason. We'll have T.V.'s set up so you can see what's going on" Piper admitted, with an apologetic look.
"Fine." Annie grumbled as Drew came and led her to the closet. Phase one of plan Annie is in session. Thought Drew. "Here's Cee!" Announced Zeus. Cee came on stage with an acoustic guitar and a stool and wearing a dress like the singer wore in the music video (I don't know her name sorry). There was a single spotlight on her. She sat on the stool and began to sing:
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
oh oh oh oh
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Oh oh
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
There was much cheering and applause as Cee stepped off the stage.
"This song always get's to me." Sobbed Hades, silently.
"Thank you Cee. Next up Nico Di'Angelo!" Zeus announced.
More cheers as Nico ran on stage, wearing black jeans, a red teeshirt, and a black jacket. Before he started Percy and Jacob ran onstage. They were on plan Annie and had agreed to help. "This song is dedicated to Annie!" The hollered then ran off. It's a good thing that was when the girls in the closet were still trying to get Annie to sit down, or she would've blushed redder than a strawberry. Finally, Nico began:
I'm hot
You're cold
You go around
Like you know
Who I am
But you don't
You got me, on my toes
I'm slipping into the lava
And I'm tryin' to keep from going under
Baby you turned the temperature hotter
Cause I'm burning up, burning up
For you baby
I fell (I fell)
So fast (so fast)
Can't hold myself down (down)
High heels (high heels)
Red dress (red dress)
All by yourself, gotta catch my breath
I'm slipping into the lava
And I'm tryin' to keep from going under
Baby you turned the temperature hotter
Cause I'm burning up, burning up
For you baby
Walk in the room
All I can see is you
You're staring me down
I know you feel it too
I'm slipping into the lava
And I'm tryin' to keep from going under
Baby you turned the temperature hotter
Cause I'm burning up, burning up
For you baby
I'm slipping into the lava
And I'm tryin' to keep from going under
Baby you turned the temperature hotter
Cause I'm burning up, burning up
For you baby
[Big Rob rap:]
Burning up in this place tonight
Brothers singin' live
And we're feeling right
Get up and dance
Don't try to fight it
Big rob for real
And that's no lie
Stop drop and roll
And touch the floor
Keeps on burning up more and more
I got JB with me
Laying it down
Come on boys lets bring the chorus around
I'm slipping into the lava
And I'm tryin' to keep from going under
Baby you turned the temperature hotter
Cause I'm burning up, burning up
For you baby
Burning up, burning up
For you baby
Applause.
Then Percy whispered to Jacob "Wasn't high heels and a red dress what Annie was wearing when he walked in on her?" (A/N I didn't plan that)
"I think so."
"Now for Bob! Bob. Bob! BOB! Where are you Bob?" No answer.
"OOOOH!" July, finally taking her mouth off the straw of her tenth caf-pow. She'd had so much of that red caffeine she was shaking. "Bob had to go to the bathroom. He'll be back in a few minutes" She grabbed another caf-pow and began drinking. "Can I go run around outside? Thank you!" July rushed out of the room.
"In that case, Piper, you're up!" Announced Aphrodite.
"Okay." (look up the end of confessions of a teenage drama Queen to see what she was wearing, just without all the fringe). "Mom! Why'd you change my clothes?" She whined.
"Just get up there!'
"Fine" As Piper started to sing, the stage lit up:
There was a girl I knew who always wanted to be the one to stand out from the crowd
Always believe that she was gonna live her dreams..
That what when down was gonna come around for all the
Doubters non believers the cynical that once were dreamers...
One of these days you'll open up your eyes and you'll realize...
Those rainbow lights that spin all over the stage came up.
That girl was a one time teenage drama queen
A hot, tough everyday wannabe...but she'll have changed her destiny...now she's a somebody.
That girl was a wild child dreamer but she found herself.
Cuz she believes in nothin else and you'll look back and you won't believe that girl was me.
Lights went back to normal.
Armed with an attitude that she knows how to use.
She's gonna get there any way she can.
Now she knows what she wants no one is gonna stop her nothings ever gonna hold her down.
For all the doubters non believers the cynical that once were dreamers..
One of these days you'll know that you were Wrong..(who would know)
Rainbow spinny lights.
That girl was a one time teenage drama queen
A hot, tough everyday wannabe...but she'll have changed her destiny...now she's a somebody.
That girl was a wild child dreamer but she found herself.
Cuz she believes in nothin else and you'll look back and you wont believe that girl was me.
Solid colored lights that change color every second.
Life is a work of art you gotta paint it colorful,
Can make it anything u want don't have to stick to any rules
You don't need a high IQ to succeed in what you do,
You just gotta have no doubt just believe in yourself.
Doubters, non-believers...once were dreamers.
One of these days you'll open up your eyes...and you'll realize
Rainbow spinning lights.
That girl was a one time teenage drama queen
A hot, tough everyday wannabe...but she'll have changed her destiny.. now she's a somebody.
That girl was a wild child dreamer but she found herself.
Cuz she believes in nothin else and you'll look back and you wont believe that girl was me.
The lights turned off. A lot of applause after that. Especially from Jason
"Now Annie's turn. Annie? Annie!"
"I'm coming!" Then Annie came out of the closet. There's a link at the bottom of the page to a video that'll have Annie's costume in. Just Annie has blonde hair and blue eyes. Annie also had one of the mic's that go on your face, so she didn't have to stand by the mic. Instead she knelt on the floor looking off into the distance, with a single spotlight on her the entire time.
Maybe far away
or maybe real nearby
he may be pouring her coffee
she may be straightening his tie
Maybe in a house
all hidden by a hill
she's sitting playing piano
he's sitting paying a bill
betcha' they're young
betcha' they're smart
bet they collect things like
ashtrays and art
betcha' they're good
why shouldn't they be?
their one mistake
was giving up me!
so maybe now its time,
and maybe when I wake,
they'll be there calling me baby, maybe...
(Instrumental)
Betcha' he reads
Betcha't she sews
Maybe she's made me
a closet of clothes
Maybe they're strict
As straight as a line
don't really care
as long as they're mine!
So maybe now these prayers
the last one of its kind.
won't you please come get your baby, maybe...
There were a few tears from...wait a minute...the gods at the end of the song. Everyone else was just quiet.
"I always tear up during that song!" Aphrodite sobbed, blowing her nose on an embroidered handkerchief.
"That song kinda explains you Annie." Realized Nico. "You know, a girl with no parents wishing they'd come back for her, perfect choice."
"Thanks." Annie was about to walk off stage when suddenly-
