This chapter takes direct excerpts from The Last Olympian (by this I mean word for word phrases stolen from the book)

I own nothing

The following weekend I had to get together with Andy at the library (of all places I had to do schoolwork it had to be the library!) after a bit of convincing Annabeth let me go.

She was only against it because we were supposed to be going on a date that night... but I promised Annabeth some kind of compensation when I got back to camp that night so she agreed...

On the downside, she had a glint in her eyes that meant she had a plan on how she was gonna make sure I didn't screw anything up... obsessive? No, more like territorial.

But I had no idea how she was going to do it... not that I was trying to cheat or anything... but people spying on me makes me nervous, especially at libraries.

So I met Andy at the entrance at noon, we walked in and moved to the section on Ancient Greece (it had been a bit of an argument between me and Andy but finally I convinced her to stay away from Roman myth, (mainly cause I didn't know diddly about the Romans except that their god of doorways [Janus] is really, really annoying.) by talking to her about the love story between Ares and Aphrodite and a couple others I made up because I forgot the names.

But then of course that night Aphrodite showed up in my bedroom right before I went to bed and started telling me every little detail about her love story... and ugh... sometimes the monsters aren't the worst part of being a demigod. Monsters youcan at least hit them a couple times with a sword and they go away... but gods... not that easy to lose.

So Andy and I started running through some of the basic Greek myths like Heracles, and Theseus, and Jason, and all of the boring things I had heard a million times.

"Wait let me see something." She said, taking the paper that had the grading criteria from my hand and reading it furiously.

"What?" I asked, flicking my paper football over the books I was using as goal posts. (when you're bored, you need something to do)

But the football hit some kind of barrier in the seat to the right of me... like someone was sitting there.

There were 3 possibilities:

1. Aphrodite spying on me.

2. Monster

3. Annabeth spying on me.

My hope was that it was the monster, and that it would incinerate the entire library (I'd have to keep everyone safe but itd be worth it to get out of this assignment) but as far as I knew, there were no Invisible Fire-Breathing monsters in Ancient Greece.

And Aphrodite would have made it a point to reveal herself.

Which left my least favorite option.

One, particular, 16 year old girl, with curly blonde hair, near 5'10, was wearing a cap of invisibility to spy on the study session.

This left me 2 options:

1. Make it a point to ignore her.

2. Make her mad.

Anyone in Camp Halfblood would know better than to make Annabeth mad on purpose, but the awesome thing about being her boyfriend was it got me out of trouble (plus she has the weakness of the all powerful ticklies!)

So I decided to tease her a little bit.

"So... Andy you have a boyfriend?"

"hmm?" She asked not looking up from the paper. "Oh no... kinda needed a break from guys."

"I know that feeling... I need a break from some girls too..." I pointed the word girls to Annabeth... hopefully she caught it.

"What about you?" She asked, looking up at me.

"Nope no boyfriend." I said, losing my nerve to make Annabeth mad. (For 2 reasons, she was invisibe and could get away with double murder, and I didn't think about the possibility of accidentally leading Andy on.)

"I meant girlfriend silly." Andy said, giggling.

"oh... oh yeah. Her name's Annabeth."

"That's a cute name." She said, looking back at the paper, obviously dissapointed.

Way to go Jackson, just be a jerk why don't you?

"Yeah." I agreed.

"I don't think I know her."

"You wouldn't, she doesn't go to Goode..." I explained.

"Oh." She said setting the paper down.

"So what'd you find?" I asked.

"It says we're supposed to write a script using information from Ancient Greek times... so I was thinking why not use the strongest Greek hero of all time?" She asked.

"I guess that makes sense... but he had a lot of wives... didn't he?"

"No, Hercules only had 1." Andy explained.

"Heracles." A voice out of nowhere said... a girl voice.

"What was that?" Andy asked, looking up from the paper.

"Heracles. Hercules was Roman... Disney kinda screwed it up." I explained.

Andy went to the nearest bookshelf and grabbed a book on the gods... she opened to the H section and saw that it was, in fact, Heracles.

"I can't believe I've never heard of that..."

"Yeah it means the Glory of Hera... it was the King of the Gods way of appeasing his Queen because he was unfaithful... then the Romans came along and changed his name to Hercules because Hera wasn't their goddess... her name was June... or something like that."

"Zeus' way to appease Hera?"

"Yeah... Glory of Hera... get it?" I asked awkwardly.

"Oh.. well anyway he had that one wife... what was her name...? Meg?"

"Megara." I said, suddenly remembering. (in reality I had looked at the book, part of it was in Greek, and read the Greek part about his 4 wives which was right next to the cause of death and how he became a god) "Heracles had had 4 wives I think... Hebe that was his last one... the one when he became a god... and Oompa Loompa... no wait... Omphale... and Deianira which was his 3rd and the one that got him killed." My greek wasn't too perfect but it was enough to show her I knew something.

"I'd never heard that Hercules... I mean Heracles had multiple wives..."

"Yeah he was a total jerk... one time..." I bit my tongue... I almost brought up the time he left Zoe Nightshade, and old Hunter of Artemis... and a couple other rumors around the Camp.

"One time what?"

"He killed his kids." I said, looking at the book real quick.

"Hmmm I see... so no Heracles." Andy said, closing the book. "What about Achilles? He was really powerful wasn't he?"

I had actually met this one, and I hope I never have to again.

"Umm... let's pick someone else."

So we went through the names and by the time the library closed we didn't have a single name.

"All right, here's an idea. Why don't we make our own hero and war/love story? That way Mr Blofis can be surprised and we can bring Greek Mythology to life." Andy suggested, as we walked out of the library.

I had had a lot of experience with Greek myths coming to life... not to fond of doing it again... but we had to do something, and at least this idea could get us an A on itself.

"We can do Perseus Junior... the most powerful child of the gods to ever live!" Andy said confidently...

I would've added but she was on a roll.

"And he'll lead a group of people just like him, to war while he is torn between 2 beautiful heroins and must choose all while saving the world as we know it!" She said, speaking faster and faster. "And when all hope is lost... Perseus weilds his mighty sword and charges the enemy a hundred ninety-nine to one slicing through his enemies while laughing like a madman and completely destroying the enemy forces." Now she was starting to scare me because she had just described the fight after I killed the Minotaur the second time. "And when its done... Perseus and his chosen heroin retreat to a beach where they kiss and begin their relationship."

Okay... I was scared about how accurate it was before... but now... it was too far.
