The next day they went apartment hunting, the girls were thrilled. Percy and Nico, however, were just shy of complaining, the only thing that kept them from doing so was their violent girlfriends.
They were looking at the last apartment of the day when Chiron appeared in an IM, "Annabeth…Percy? Nico? Thal…"
Thalia snapped, "yes, we don't need to be told our names!"
Nico put a hand on her shoulder as Annabeth turned to Chiron, "what is it you need, Chiron?"
"we have found a demigod, but cannot spare a satyr to pick her up, I was wondering if you would mind helping us out."
Annabeth paused and considered for a moment before asking, "how much time do we have?"
"well, I can give you about three days, any more than that and I might as well send a satyr, why? Usually you all jump to my aid when I need anything."
Percy and Nico glanced at each other, both with the same thought in their heads. Percy turned back to Chiron and said, "Nico and I can do it right now."
That got a slap form both girls, Annabeth snapped at him, "no, we have five days of break and that's barely long enough for us to find a place as it is! Besides, don't you want to have some part in choosing an apartment?"
Percy glanced at Nico for support, who only shook his head, luckily they were saved by Chiron, of all people, "you're apartment hunting? For all of you? I might know a place for you to look at."
Annabeth was silent for a moment before asking, "really?"
Chiron paused as well, as if fighting with himself, "yes, and I'll give you the address and even try to talk the gods into giving you a loan if you do me this one favor."
The four demigods glance at one another before Annabeth sighed and resigned, "fine."
"great, the address is…"
After an hour long drive across the state the four young demigods pulled up at a small suburban house.
Annabeth double checked the address and proclaimed, "this is it!"
"finally," Nico grumbled, "I would have rathered apartment hunting."
Thalia glanced at him and mocked, "weren't you one of the people trying to get out of apartment hunting?"
Nico glared at her for a second before silently turning and getting out of the car.
The four demigods walked up to the door and knocked.
A young girl with stormy gray eyes and blonde hair answered the door, "yes?"
Annabeth looked down at the girl and said, "hi, my name is Annabeth, are you Ashley?"
"yes?" the girl answered in a suspicious tone, fingering a necklace.
"ash, who is it?" a man's voice called from inside the house.
"some weird teenagers, they know my name!" the girl called back.
A man walked up and regarded the teens, "who are you? you're not trying to sell me something, are you?"
Percy looked the man in the eyes and said solemnly, "we're from camp."
Annabeth slapped him and snapped, "you make it sound like such a bad thing!"
Percy sighed, "can we come in?"
Ashley glanced up at her father, still fingering her necklace, "who are these people?"
Annabeth, always aware of her surroundings asked, "what is that necklace?"
Ashley clutched it and said, "it's God's symbol."
Nico raised an eyebrow and asked, "really, which one?"
Ashley took a step back and asked, what do you mean which one? God! It is His symbol!" she held up the necklace to show them the cross on the end."
Thalia buried her head in her hands and cursed, "Chiron, there's a special punishment in Hades, just for you."
Ashley glanced up at Thalia and asked, "what did you just say?"
Annabeth sighed and said, "never mind, umm… Thalia I agree one hundred percent!
Let's see… do you know anything about the Greek gods?"
Ashley snorted, "of course not, why would I want to learn anything about those false truths?"
Percy had a rare stroke of genius, "ok, then, if you're so convinced that your God is real, kill me."
Ashley snorted, "My God? He is the only god!"
Percy smirked, "fine, sir, would you mind stabbing me in the chest?"
Ashley's father was struck with horror, "what!"
Annabeth was loosing her patience, "gods! I'll stab you!" she took out her dagger and smashed it into Percy's chest.
It slid off.
Ashley snorted, "that's obviously at fake knife!"
Annabeth took Ashley's hand and cut a gash across it, "THERE! Now get packed and come with us we'll get the details hammered out with your father."
A half an hour later as they left Nico said, "I hope this apartment was worth all of that."
Ok, this is one of the stand alones a wanted to write, I though that it would be awesome to have a hyper Christian be a demigod, I wish I could have made this chapter longer.
So, that's about it.
