Hello there! Sorry if it took really long. I was busy and our internet was down...it was the most agonizing week of my life. Well, here's chapter 2. Hope you enjoy :)

Characters: Percy Jackson, Jason Grace, Leo Valdez, Frank Zhang & Nico di Angelo

Leo was feeling quite elated today. "Hey bro's!" He said as he walked towards Percy, Jason, and Frank who were talking to each other in hushed tones. "Uh, yes, Leo?" Jason raised an eyebrow. "Oh nothing. So what's up?" Leo grinned. And suddenly out of nowhere, a voice behind him made him jump. "Excuse me." Leo turned around to find Nico – thirteen year-old Nico di Angelo, son of Hades, behind him. Dressed in his usual emo outfit. "Don't you ever wear anything bright?" Leo asked, out of curiosity. "Not that it's any of your business." Nico sighed.
"Nico, have you talked to your dad?" Frank chimed in. "What – oh, no…not yet." Nico frowned ruefully. "Why? Did you and Hazel fight?" Jason asked, a bit protectively. Hazel was like a little sister to him. "What? No!" Frank answered, shaking his head. "Hades doesn't approve of you?" Percy guessed. Frank turned red. "Kind of…he said –" Frank cut off and cleared his throat. "Well, father told me to keep an eye on him and Hazel and make sure that I keep things between them rated PG." Nico continued for him. Frank turned even redder, and Percy, Jason, and Leo burst out laughing. "PG? Seriously? It's not like those two go five thousand miles an hour." Percy rolled his eyes. Hazel and Frank were sometimes shy around each other. (You get it? Well it's not like Hazel & Frank take things fast. =)) ) "Exactly. I don't know. He suddenly pops out of nowhere and gives me the lecture and a litany of things not to do. It was the most embarrassing moment of my life!" Frank threw his arms up in exasperation. "I know how you feel, Frank." Percy patted his shoulder. He really did. He'd been cornered by Annabeth's mom, Athena, countless times and always nagging him. "Hylla almost broke my arm when I tried going a little closer to Reyna…" Jason mumbled. "You mean flirt with Reyna." Frank corrected. Jason's ears turned pink, but his face remained nonchalant. "Well, how about we all sit? I think it's getting awfully hot in here, talking about your lovey-dovey problems under the sun." Leo suggested.

"No thanks. I think I'll rest over there." Jason said, pointing his thumb towards the praetor houses. "Liar. You just want to cuddle with Reyna." Nico pointed. Percy and Frank were like, "OOOOOOH!" Jason just got served.

Jason's left eye twitched. He was ready to pounce any second now and wring this kid in the neck. "You're one to talk about keeping things rated PG." Jason replied, controlling the emotion in his voice. "Heh. Who cares, really?" Nico rolled his eyes. "Pfft. I care. You like my sister." Jason eyed Nico. His pale face turned beet red. "Tell that to Leo." Nico denied. "Mhmm. You too Leo. Well it's not like he has a chance or anything…" Jason turned to Leo. "No offense." Leo exaggerated a step back. "Well excuse me, but I'm the definition of fire, Mr. Sparky." Leo pretended to look offended. Frank winced. "He just said the F-word." Frank shuddered. Nico's eyes widened. "The F-word?" He asked. Well there was only one F-word he knew that existed in the 21st century…

"Fire. He means…fire." Percy said, raising his eyebrows at Nico. "Oh…" Nico trailed off. Well he was kind of hoping to show that he was blending in with today's slang and style. "Oh shizz. I forgot I was supposed to meet Hazel in Pluto's temple. Catch you all later." Nico said, running.

"Any day now, I will strangle him down to the Underworld." Jason clenched his fists. "I've felt the same. But, he's just a kid." Percy shrugged. "Technically, he's older." Jason said. Frank cleared his throat. Age was a sensitive topic in between him and Hazel. "He's like our grandpa's age." Percy nodded. "AH AHEM!" Frank exaggerated the clearing of his throat. "Oh. Hi Frank." Percy said. Frank sighed deeply. "And there goes my feelings." He said. "Yeah, there goes your feelings." Jason pointed.

None of them even noticed that Leo went away and there he was, flirting with Hazel. He would step closer, and make her laugh. Frank's mouth dropped. "Why that little –" Frank knelt down, and slowly, his ears pointed, his teeth sharpened, and he was covered in fur. He transfigured into a wolf. He snarled and ran after Leo.

Percy and Jason were just laughing. "Yep. Defend your girlfriend by turning into a wolf. Completely normal." Percy chuckled. "Speaking of normal, you wanna play?" Percy suggested. "By 'play', do you mean trying to stab, electrocute, and drown each other?" Jason grinned. "Game on."

Oh well. Just another normal day and a typical conversation in the lives of five demigod boys.

So was it...okay? Nice? Just fine? Please review! Be cool that way. Thanks :)
