I am so... STUPID!
I forgot to do Percy and Deuce's thing! UGH! Seriously, how did I make it to 8th grade?
Anyway, I already decided who's going to help me co-write! The person I chose is going to help me start writing the next chapter. Kay? Good. I'll PM you later today so we can start. But we're going to have to use the DocX thing.
Anyway, the co-author is... Laylaenchantix101! I feel that you'll be able to help the most because of your dad's sense of humor. So, my randomness plus your sense of humor equals AN AWESOME STORY! But you'll only help on this story. Not the trilogy. Okay?
Anyway, (wow I keep saying that) READ AND REVIEW!
Percy's POV
Hephaestus's office smelled like something burning and metal. There was a file cabinet labeled "Revenge on Aphrodite and Ares". Wow, after three thousand years, he still can't get over it?
"Okay you boys know how I create automatons?" Hephaestus asked. Deuce and I nodded. "Well, a few of them went berserk and won't listen to orders. Here they are." he pressed a button on his remote control and a video of some automatons came up.
They were outside of Hephaestus's Factory going crazy. Believe me, I've seen a bunch of automatons, and I mean a bunch, but I have never seen some doing the tango. I couldn't help but snicker. The next thing I knew was that they were sword fighting.
"See? Crazy, huh? Anyway, you two need to go and destroy them before some of my other automatons follow their example." he said. "Meanwhile, I need to attend to some business."
Deuce muttered. "Probably coming up with a way to get Aphrodite back."
"Excuse me?" Hephaestus asked.
"Nothing!" Deuce replied.
We left his office and went out near the trash can. When we got there, the automatons were now thumb wrestling. Weirdos.
"Hey weirdos!" Deuce called. They both turned to us. "Hephaestus told us that you're the weirdest and stupidest automatons he's ever had!"
They grunted, as if to say, "Oh yeah?"
"Yeah. And you know what else, you two are horrible at the tango!"
That really set them off. They pressed a button on their wrists and two celestial bronze swords came out from each of their robot hands. They charged at us. The first one's left sword came in contact with my left arm and shattered. Oh yeah, I think forgot to tell you guys that I'm invincible since last year. I took a dip in the Styx so now I've got the Curse of Achilles. The part of my body that makes me human is a small part in my back, just opposite of my belly button.
The first one looked confused, then it suddenly hit him. There was no way he'd be able to kill me.
As for Deuce, he was handling his automaton pretty well. Deuce was able to hit his sword to both of the automatons sword arms and brought it down. As soon as the automaton was on its back, Deuce stabbed it and it was destroyed.
Suddenly I got an idea. I moved my sword around like an idiot and the automaton was trying to hit his sword onto mine. Only he came a little too close to his left arm and it came off. While it was distracted, I killed it.
"Automatons can be so stupid sometimes." I said.
Zaira's POV
Once we were all done with our jobs, we met up in the girls room. Mason and I, being the healers we are, got to work on people.
"Never, ever, ever get into a fight with Phobos and Deimos." Jessica said. I gave her an ice pack and she set it on her right shoulder. "Ahh much better."
"Oh yeah? Well I'm aching all over! Cerberus is crazy!" Nico said, trying his best not to move. Mason had to cover his whole body with ice packs filled with nectar.
"Mason, how do you treat burns from being electrocuted?" Tinka asked.
"Since it went through your whole body, you're gonna need to take a bath in nectar." Mason said.
"That sounds so weird.." Jared said.
"Maybe, but it works." I said. "Who needs bandages?" I asked.
A few hands went up. Dang. Never thought that working for the gods would be this hard. I would've rather stayed back at camp and be turned into a can of coke by Dionysus.
One of Zeus's and Hera's servants came in with the hat. Time to choose who we'll have tomorrow. We went in alphabetical order by our parents. So Gunther and Tinka went first.
"Demeter." Tinka said. She and Gunther groaned.
Mason and I got Hades, Clarisse and Mayra got Hephaestus, Annabeth and Rocky got Aphrodite, Katie and Jessica got Apollo (lucky), Nico and Jared got Poseidon, Ty and Adam got Ares, Travis, Connor, and Flynn got Hermes (lucky they get their own dad), Percy and Deuce got Athena (I feel sorry for Percy), and that left Cat and Taylor with Zeus (luck they get their dad)

Okay. Still need ideas for the others!
Really, if I don't get ideas, I won't be able to update. I need ideas for all of them!
Anyway, in case you're wondering, I do choose at random for everyone. I write down the names of the god, put it into a hat, then choose. Kay?
AND, if you guys read The Complications of Technology, you'll know that I'm nominated for one of the awards! Please vote for me! So far I'm in the lead! Here's the link. Take out the spaces.
