Dear Readers,
Happy New Year my lovelies! Thank you for all of your reviews. Your enthusiasm and comments inspired me to keep going. I have some shout outs I'd like to do so here it goes:
OMGDemigodishness: Thank you! Your suggestion will be featured in the next chapter. The only reason I'm not doing it now is because someone else's idea fit in better with the plot line. I am so glad you like my fanfiction. Your support has inspired me to continue with the story. Love Ya!
Hawk04: Thank you for your constructive comment. This chapter is bloody action, as promised. I am not embarrassed; I was just busy yesterday with New Years and all that jazz. Thank you for helping me not make it too fluffy and I hope you enjoy this chapter. Please tell me what you think because as you can tell I don't really write action :]
Thanks to tissue729 for making me laugh and inspiring me to write my longest chapter yet!
I forgot this the last few times: I don't PJO. I kinda wish I did. But I don't. So yeah:[
So after I woke up and ate breakfast and ya know, relived what was probably my finest moment [for those of you slowpokes out there, it was the fact that Cal kissed me! And didn't throw up. And wasn't forced to. Score!] Anywho, I was so confident in myself right about then that I decided I was going to spar with the Ares cabin. I was pretty much like, look at me, I'm Super-Leo, the guy who can fight meanies in the Ares cabin and kiss girls! The looks are just icing on the cake. So I step up to the plate to start sparring with Mark. A word about Mark. He is a flipping linebacker, the strongest guy in the Ares cabin, and also happens to have a big crush on Calypso. He outweighs me by about 35 pounds. Guess I picked the wrong partner. Oops.
Mark approached with hatred and fury burning in his eyes. To say this was a bad idea is the understatement of the century. All my confidence was gone, to be replaced by a deep-seated fear of getting hacked to pieces. As Mark continued to walk forward, I thought about the kiss. I decided I would confront her in a few days, to give her time to come out and tell me herself. In the meantime, I would have to have a little talk with my friends in the Apollo cabin [A.N: That's you, OMGDemigodishness!]. "You kissing my girl, Val-dork? 'Cause word on the street is that you did. Huh, you little punk!" he screamed, slashing open my shirt with his sword in the process. "
"She kissed me," I stuttered out with I voice that belonged with a five year-old girl.
"Yeah, and why do I find that hard to believe, you geek" he retorted.
I cant 't really believe it myself" I said nervously laughing and trying to lighten the mood. But Mark would have none of that, So, I resumed the old stand-by: cowering in terror. The Leo Valdez special. I decided that I would less of a chance of getting sliced to ribbons if I just confronted him. With no armor, no shield and oh yeah, no method of defense whatsoever, I charged Mark. His sword found my stomach and it did not miss its mark [Ha, Mark, mark, huh, oh.]. As my insides flowed freely from my body, I remembered my one defense mechanism: fire. Although it was pretty agonizing, I lit my entire body on fire and charged Mark again.
It was pretty much all over after that. I chased him around the room a few times and he ran like a scared little girl. He took a deep breath and regained his confidence and tried to engage me in combat again by sticking his sword right through my chest. Did it work? Don't all you dear people wish that? Well, for the record it didn't [cue awws]. Instead, Marks sword melted from the heat of the fire radiating from my body. "I guess fire trumps strength, Markowitz" I said teasingly. He yelled in anger and muttered curses that would have made you gasp under his breath, but he didn't attempt to commit a homicide against me. Again. He just sorta slowly backed away and then ran away in fear. You know, typical Mark-like behavior. " I am never doing that again." I said to myself, thankful for my life. Now to put Operation Find-Out –If-Calypso-Likes-Me–And-Is–Willing–To–Tell-Me-She-Kissed-Me-While-I-Was_Asleep into action. Or, as I refer to it: FOICLMAIWTTMSKMWIWA. I went in serch of the Apollo cabin. This should be interesting.
So that's the chapter. Hawk04, I hoped you liked it! Please give me your feedback. As I said before OMGDemigodishness, your idea will be featured in the next chapter. On that note, I say goodbye. I might not update as often because of school and all. You know the drill!
