I'm SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry for making my wonderful readers wait. I had so much going on *read: homework* and I was really busy. So busy I hardly had time to go to the school library. Which is totally not me cos i literally go to the library EVERY SINGLE WEEKDAY :( . But I am surviving...barely.
So, on to the story! Hope you peeps like it!
Disclaimer: I do not own the PJO or HoO series. Or the really bad movie.
Everyone snuggled closer to the warmth and softness of their recliners, some yawning, some grumbling.
It is midday when Sally, Percy and Grover are driving to the camp.
Percy: Where are you taking me? What is this 'camp'?
Sally: Camp. This camp is for special people.
Percy: What, you mean I'm crazy or something?
"That can be certified" sniggered Jason
Sally: Percy, this is about your father
The image fades and then shows the car heading along a dark deserted road.
Sally: Percy, your father was like no other guy I had ever seen, and he was just dazzling...
Grover: Pffffff...They're always dazzling
"Wait guys, backup" Annnabeth interrupted the groans the demigods from Grover's comment "How come Sally says that it's about Seaweed Brain's dad in the day and only talks about it at night?" Annabeth's comment made the others produce 'oooooooh's and 'aaaahhh's from the others
"Only Wise Girl can spot those details" Percy boasted and swung an arm around Annabeth's shoulders. Leo was silently laughing in his head. He couldn't wait to see their expressions later on.
The car continues to drive on and the screen shows a dark, large humanoid figure behind the fence where cows are grazing.
"Beef Boy" muttered Percy, and then brightened up "At least they put this part in! "
This time, Leo and Nico didn't laugh. The other boys had their eyes glued to the screen, but the girls looked at the son of Hades and son of Hephaestus curiously. The truth was, that the two boys didn't find anything wrong with that scene, and Nico was pretty sure that Percy still had the Minotaur's horn in his cabin.
Percy: Why did my father have to leave? Why?
Sally: Because he-
Grover: Sally! WATCH OUT!
Something large nearly lands on the car, but Sally veers to the side, causing the car to flip over and land on its hood
All the girls shrieked and clutched at their boyfriends' arms. Will was also slightly startled, and jumped a bit. Later on, he would never admit that he snuggled closer to Nico, when a smirking Leo (who was waiting for everyone's reactions) asked him about it.
Percy: Mom? Grover? You alright?
Grover: Is it me, or is it raining cows?
"There is a very big difference between a cow and Pasiphaë's son. For one-"Annabeth was interrupted by Jason snorting with laughter at Movie Percy expression
Percy is staring at the distance, where he sees a bull-like creature is charging towards the car.
Percy: What it that?
Grover: Oh no!
Sally: Get out! Get out!
Sally and Percy are banging ar the doors of the car, trying to get out, but Grover is trying to take off his pants
Percy: Dude! Why are you trying to take your pants off?
Grover: It's my job
Percy: Dude!? You're half donkey?!
"The technical term is satyr" chorused everyone loudly, then cracking up.
"Dude, this is messed up! Like, totally messed up!" Frank laughed incredulously.
The demigods all silently agreed with Frank and continued to watch. The screen showed them running up the Half Blood Hill, while the Minotaur threw the car at them, but missed.
"You know, I never really did like that Camaro" mused Percy
The three reached the top of the Hill. Sally can't get through and Percy doesn't want to go in without her.
"Wait, Grover was meant to be unconscious at that time" commented Will "I remember healing him in the infirmary, with him grovelling into the blankets, groaning 'FOOOOOOOOOOOOD'" Will did a crude imitation of Grover, before Nico punched him on the arm and told him to shut up.
Sally is suddenly grabbed by the Minotaur, to Percy and Grover's horror. Sally turns into golden dust and Percy, ready to avenge his mother, approaches the Minotaur.
Grover: Percy! Use the pen!
Percy: What?!
Grover: Uncap the pen!
Percy uncaps the pen, which turns into a sword, and nearly skewers Grover.
"Why can't Beef Boy attack when they're just standing there? And can't they just go into camp and be safe, rather than being in danger?" Piper sighed
"Ha, they simply adore my bull-fighting skill, that's why" Percy put in. Nico snorted. If you said that Movie Percy's fighting skills were good, that would be a downright lie.
Percy makes a few bad swipes at the Minotaur, then loses his sword, before it charges at Percy. Percy moves at the last second and the Minotaur lodges its horn into the tree
"Ha!" Percy stood up and shouted at the screen "Take that Beef Boy!"
"Calm down, Seaweed Brain" Annabeth smiled "It's just a movie"
"It's more than a movie, it's the movie of my life" Percy shot back, sassily
"Someone get camera! Quick! Annabeth is being sassed!" Leo teased, but was quietened by Annabeth's glare. If looks could kill, Leo would have been dead for the second time.
The Minotaur gets its head out of the tree, and Percy goes to the tree, trying to get the horn out. The monster charges once more, but Percy gets the horn out just in time, and stabs the Minotaur in the stomach. It falls back to the ground, dead.
"Oh...my...gods" said a gobsmacked Piper and Annabeth
"Oh gods! Pause it! Right after Percy kills it" shrieked Hazel. Leo did as she asked and looked at the screen, looking at Hazel apprehensively.
"This, is an offence to my entire being...our lives..." gasped Piper.
At this moment the boys were looking at their girlfriends rather worriedly, until Will let out a screech.
"Oh my gods, Nico did you just see-" started Will but he got interrupted by his boyfriend's growl
"I swear, whoever made this movie, will get one hell of a punishment when they die..." Nico, Annabeth, Piper, Hazel and Will were all glaring at the paused screen.
"Can someone just tell us WHAT EXACTLY YOU ARE STARING AT?" Frank questioned rather impatiently.
"The screen"
"A terrible mistake"
"An offence...a personal offense"
"An immediate sentence to the Fields of Punishment"
"Hell, even Echidna and Typhon would be crying if they saw this!"
"Okay, guys, I'm gonna get Chiron, he'll know what to do" Leo started to get up, but Calypso grabbed his arm and gasped, horrified.
"Oh gods! Leo, I see it now! I knew mortals were stupid, but not to this extent!"
"Errrr, Sunshine, you feeling all right?" Leo asked, wincing at the strong grip that Calypso had on him.
"Dude, I think there's something wrong with the scree-OH MY GODS! WHAT HAVE THEY DONE?" Percy exploded along with Jason, Leo and Frank.
"Okay, peeps, finish the sentence: When monsters die, they-" Piper said calmly
"TURN TO DUST!" screamed everybody in the room
"Now that we've got that out of our systems, we can continue watching this" Annabeth said
"Not before I do this..." Percy took out Riptide and was going to uncap it, but Leo jumped in front of him
"Whoa, calm down, buddy! I spend three hours working on this baby, just to make it monster proof. And you won't damage her just 'cause they didn't make a monster turn to dust!"
"Wait, your TV is a she?" Percy asked
Annabeth pulled the distracted Percy back down and Leo played the movie once more.
Exhausted, Percy collapses against Grover. The screen changes to show an old fashioned place, with many beds and people rushing around. The camera zooms in on Percy. He groans then wakes up.
Percy: Argh...where am I?
"The most common words used when someone falls unconscious" said Calypso said dryly
Grover: The infirmary
"WHAT?" shrieked Will "I literally live in the infirmary, and they turn it into...into...that..." Will shuddered, while everyone else giggled at the Head of the Apollo cabin's distress.
Grover: Do you...remember anything?
Percy: Nah...Just a crazy dream about barnyard animals...yeah, you were there too, as were this weird hybrid goat-man THING!
On the last word, Percy looks down and sees Grover is satyr form.
"Okay, guys, this is a really random thought, but do satyrs wear underwear?" asked Leo, truly intrigued
"EWWWWW!" chorused all the girls
"Remind me to ask Grover next time he comes back...I don't know why I didn't think of that before..." Percy grinned
"Who would've know that my boyfriend had such a dirty mind?" Annabeth sighed
" Well, I do know a lot more..."
"Seaweed Brain isn't completely clueless" put in Piper
"Yeah, Annabeth!" said Percy "Piper is right!"
But everyone was too busy giggling at what Piper said - and how Percy took it.
"Wait...you said...'isn't completely clueless'..." Percy realised, but Jason started the movie again, before Percy could do anything.
Percy: Oh no, no, no...So that was real?...so my mom is...?
Grover: I'm sorry Percy...but there is bigger news.
Percy: What now?
"Dude, he didn't even act like he lost someone...especially his mom" said Frank pityingly
"I know, right?!"
Grover led Percy out of the infirmary and took him outside. They are in the middle of a forest, and many teens around the same age as Percy are there. They are learning to fight, using, spear, swords, bow and arrows and wearing some weird armour(according to Percy).
Grover: Percy. This is your new home. Welcome to Camp Half Blood!
*dodges spears, swords, Greek fire, arrows and traps*
Well, I'm so sorry for the cliffhanger, but...I had to do it! I can see why Rick like cliff hangers :P You'll see their reaction to Annabeth in the next chapter! Again I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO for for making you guys wait...but I tried to make up for it for the long chappie.
Sorry if the characters seemed OOC, but I think the best bit about killing monsters (if I was I demigod..or am I?) is the satisfaction of turning them to dust. And I'm pretty sure all demigods feel like that. So, guys you know the routine: Review, replies favs, follows and advice is always welcome! :P
