NICO:

"How dare they! Take away my children like that! If they weren't already dead, I'd kill them!" Thalia had been ranting non-stop. I could see the reason behind the rant, the Gods did take her children from her, the eldest being only fifteen, but she had been ranting for over three hours, ever since we had came back from the campfire.

"Thals. I think you need to calm down, the kids are sleeping right under us." I said pulling her down by her waist onto the bed beside me.

"How are you not mad about this! I mean the gods who neglected me for half of my life just stole my kids away from me without so much as a warning!" She complained.

"Maybe it was because they knew you'd go berserk." I grumbled.

"What was that?" She demanded.

"Nothing. I'm going to bed, if you plan to continue, please continue it elsewhere." And with that I slid under the bed covers and turned of the lights.

ANNABETH:

"My daughter is a Goddess now." Percy was saying, still sitting in the same position on the same chair in the same corner of our cabin as he had been in three hours ago.

"Your son is a God too you know." I said as I tucked Ali into her bunk.

"No one cares about him." Percy brushed it off, so overprotective of his daughter he didn't care about his son.

He continued to grumble as I brought the Hannah and Ciera their hot chocolate. When I came back downstairs, Percy was still in the same position. "Oh my gods! Oh my gods! Noah is a god too!" He exlaimed.

"Oh my god! I hadn't noticed!" I said sarcastically.

"STOP WITH THE GOD TALK! IT'S LOUD AND IT HURTS!" Hannah yelled from upstairs.

LUKE:

"Honey? Are you okay?" I asked sitting down beside Kat on the dock.

"I...I don't know." She responded. "They took my baby girl away from me." She whispered.

I didn't know what to say to that, so I just wrapped my arms around her and pulled her onto my lap.

JAMES ("STEVE"):

"STEVE!" I was shaken awake. It was pitch black in the Hera cabin, but I could make out the figure leaning over me, and I knew exactly who it was.

Now, usually I wouldn't take advantage of this situation, a beautiful girl leaning over my bed thinking I'm asleep, but I'm King of the Gods now. Faster than the lightning she now controls, I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her down on top of me, our faces inches apart.

"Can I help you Lily?" I asked.

"Jerk." She muttered, looking away from me.

Keeping one arm wrapped around her small waist, I turned her face back to mine. "Now you and I both now you wouldn't sneak out of your family's cabin, come find me and wake me up just to call me a jerk." I smirked the entire time I talked.

"I...uh...I..."

"Spit it out DiAngelo!"

"I...uh...oh...I wa-was wondering what being King and Queen of the gods entitled..." She tried to look away from me, but I held her face towards me.

"What do you mean?" I knew exactly what she meant, but I wanted to hear her say it.

"Um, well, Kings and Queens are usually...um...involved?" She was doing all she could to avoid the word.

"I don't know what you mean."

"Married! You happy now? Are we supposed to be married?" She exlaimed.

"I am ecstatic. And that my little queen is a question for Chiron in the morning."

"Ok, then I guess I'll be leaving now..." She tried to get off of me.

"I don't think so. What kind of king would I be if I let his queen walk alone in the dark?"

"Does that mean you're coming with me?"

"Nope that means your staying with me." I pulled the covers out from under her and then over her. I slid her down to be beside me rather than on top of me.

"I don't think my dad would like this..." She muttered, but it seemed only half hearted.

"Your my little queen now, you answer to me only." I whispered into her ear.

"I'm not little." She said.

"Trust me, I know." I said wrapping one arm around her rib cage and placing the other on her butt.

WILL:

"That ass! What does he think he's doing! I saw her first!" I was ranting, pacing in front of my mother.

"Now William, Gods don't use that language." She scolded. "But I do have a plan. She will want nothing to do with the King of the Gods."
