Katie woke up to the sound of her half-siblings screaming; she opened her eyes to see the cabin's floor covered in soil and different types of flowers. She got out of bed and ran towards the cabin door, but before she could open it one of her half-sisters stopped her.

"Katie, don't!" her half-sister, Janet, yelled.

Katie turned, her back towards the door, and looked at Janet with confusion. "Huh?"

"Katie, this is the reason you are spending a week with them", Janet explained. "If you go now and make a mess—we all know you do—imagine what Chiron will do."

Katie thought about it, Janet was right, if she went now and tried to get revenge, Chiron would make sure she regretted it. She sighed, "Well, let's clean up this mess, I'll get the stuff."

She turned and opened the door but as she did so, a bucket full of iced water fell on her. She mentally screamed and went to get the cleaning utensils. She'll kill them, later.


After breakfast, Katie didn't immediately go to the strawberry fields. Instead, she went to the Athena cabin to ask her friend, Malcolm, for a favor. Knowing that she couldn't cause any physical pain to Travis and Connor, she then decided she would ignore them; she was following the rules Chiron gave her, which meant she would not get in trouble. It was the perfect plan!

Katie was also aware of her ADHD, which was lower than other demigods because, let's face it, Demeter is not considered very important. This is why she went to the Athena cabin She asked Malcolm to lend her one of her favorite books, "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" by Stephen Chbosky, so she would not be so bored.

She then went to the strawberry fields to find the Stoll brothers waiting for her. They were sitting with their legs stretched out in front of them, backs turned, so they didn't see Katie approach them. Katie cleared her throat, making her presence known. The Stoll brothers turned and stood up, a small smirk in Travis' face, and a look of pure terror on Connor's.

"H-hey Katie" Connor said, slowly moving behind his brother, using him as a human shield.

Travis' smirk grew bigger as he crossed his arms and said hello. "Sup, Kitty-Kat?"

Katie nodded acknowledging the brothers' presence, but she did not say a word, she just turned and started walking towards the Hermes cabin followed by two very confused Stolls.


Just as the day before, Katie sat on the floor, as far as she could from the Stolls, and the brothers each on their own bed. There was an awkward silence, for both Travis and Connor were waiting for her to explode, but instead of doing so, she simply sat there—reading.

Connor looked at his older with confusion, not knowing what to do, for that had never happened before. Shock was written all over Travis' face, but he merely shrugged and turned the TV on. Connor felt sleepy because he had woken up very early to play that prank on Katie, so he closed his eyes and wandered off to dreamland.

Travis watched as his brother slept and Katie read on. It was getting on his nerves that he couldn't get a reaction out of her—hers were always the best. Most days, she would go into his cabin in the morning, screaming her head off, trying to make him clean the messes he made, which by the way he never did. It was funny aggravating her, seeing her cheeks red from yelling and frustration; and now seeing her so calmly reading was significantly annoying to him.

He knew what he had to do to get her to even look at him. It was a very simple phrase, but he was Travis Stoll, and he was not going to give in.


Connor woke up only to see Travis glaring daggers at Katie, who was not reading anymore, but instead watching TV, looking quite relaxed.

Connor slapped Travis' shoulder slightly. "Dude, calm down."

"She's doing this on purpose." Travis said through gritted teeth.

"Of course she is," Connor said. "If it bugs you so much, just apologize."

"I am a Stoll. Stolls do not apologize."

"Well, this one should." Connor stated, pointing a finger at his brother.

"I won't."

"Okay." The younger Stoll then laid down and looked at the TV, "You will eventually though."

Travis doubted his brother's words with stubborn pride, but with every passing minute he was getting more and more frustrated. He checked the alarm clock he had under his pillow and saw that he only had a minute before the horn for dinner sounded. He sighed, his pride a bit wounded and cleared his throat.

"Katie, I'm sorry."

She looked up, surprised, she had expected an apology; but what amazed her was hearing her name said, years had passed since the last time her name had rolled out of his tounge. She liked being called Katie, she liked her name.

The horn sounded, signaling the end of the day.

Katie stood up and stretched, "I didn't cause any physical pain to any of you, in the whole day. Wow." Then she smiled deviously. "But the day ended. I'm giving you a five second head start."

He chuckled, rolling his eyes at her, as if he doubted she was serious.

"One." She began

"We're faster than you." Travis crossed his arms.

"Two."

"You'll never catch us."

"Three."

"Please, you don't even run that fast."

"Four."

Travis faked a yawn, and as Katie said 'five' he rushed out the door with a girlish scream, followed by Connor, laughing. Well, Katie had said she'd kill them later, hadn't she?
