Trick or Treat: Thalia's Bad Mood Gets Her Attacked By a Vampire
A/N: Sorry for the long wait guys, I sort of fell of the face of the fanfiction earth for awhile… (did you know it's not round?) I'm back for now though! Don't know how long it'll take me, but I'm attempting to update all of my stories! So yeah… Yay!
Disclaimer: I do not own… yet….
Nico's POV:
So yeah, okay, I might have been a bit hyper on Halloween night. I don't know what the others have told you about it, but I swear it wasn't as bad as they say it was. I mean, I just had a few pieces of candy, and a couple of Monsters, but other than that I stayed pretty calm and collected… Oh, and I might have had a couple of those 5 Hour Energy shots before heading over to Percy's house. I stored a few more in my bag, and forgot all about them. In fact, I pretty much forgot everything except the amazing taste of sugary-sweet-kill-ya-in-thirty-years-candy. Who could blame me?
A few good things actually did come out of that night though. We got a few great stories out of it, and I gained more respect as a person… kind of. I mean, if it wasn't for me that vampire would have sucked the life out of Thalia. She had just finished dragging Annabeth out of the street, and yelling at Percy for eating the grass, (don't ask,) when she decided she would start targeting me. Of course, I wasn't doing anything wrong. Actually… come to think of it, I don't really remember much about what I was doing that night except for the fact that the candy was tasty and everyone else was being mean to me. I was dressed up as a Ninja, which by the way is a seriously awesome costume, and I was waving my plastic sword around at Connor and Travis, when Thalia just comes up and starts yelling at me. She was in a seriously dangerous mood.
"NICO! How many times do I have to tell you to stop hitting people with that thing." She yelled, "You are getting on my last nerve. One of these days I'm going to snap, and you are NOT going to be happy."
"What are you doing now?" I countered, in the innocent tone of voice that I just knew would annoy her endlessly. A Ninja's gotta have some fun. "Urgh!" She screamed in frustration, and of course Percy had to butt in with a funny comment. "Look!" He said, "I think Thalia is planning on being a Troll for Hallowing! She's making sound effects, and she doesn't even need a costume." That was the last straw for her I guess. She started lashing out on everyone and everything. Some little girl dressed as a princess was walking down the street, and Thalia grabbed the girls candy and started shoving it in her mouth as the poor kid screamed and ran away. It was actually pretty funny now that I think about it.
"Why did you guys even get me to come out here if you were planning on acting like this? Why am I the only one around here acting responsible! Good gods, you guys are acting like candy is a gift from Zeus himself!" She yelled. Suddenly, Annabeth jolted awake in time to say, "Here here!" before falling asleep again. Thalia continued ranting. "And you two!" She shrieked, pointing at Connor and Travis, "I don't even know what y'alls problem is!" Using my raptor hearing, I heard Connor ask Travis if Thalia was from Texas. "No!" Thalia screamed, because I guess she heard them too… or something like that… "I am not from Texas, I just need some respect!" The rant was beginning to bore me, so as she yelled and screamed, and shrieked and choked, ranted and weirded everyone out, I let my mind wander on other things.
I thought about butterflies, which made me think of caterpillars, which made me think of that smoking one in Alice and Wonderland, than I thought about how creepy that movie was, then I thought about The Wizard of Oz, then I thought about witches, and that brought me back to Thalia again. Apparently, everyone else had let their mind wander too, because no one really noticed that some punk looking teenaged kid had snuck up and was standing behind her looking extremely creepy. She must've been really, really angry, because no one can normally sneak up on Thalia. Needless to say, it kind of freaked me out a bit. I kicked Annabeth a little on the ground next to me, and when she saw the vampire she said, "Ahhh. Look. Vampire. Scary," before falling asleep again. "Huh?" Thalia said, calming down a bit, but once she turned around, the vampire laughed and hit her over the head with a cooking pan. Yes, a vampire with a cooking pan.
Now, normal Nico would have been freaked that some punk dude hit Thales over the head with a cooking pan, and was now kicking her repeatedly on the ground. Candy filled Nico got really distracted again. I thought about cooking pans, which made me think about pancakes, which made me think about regular cake, which made me think about birthdays, which made me think about parties, which made me think about piñata's, which reminded me that Thalia was being attacked… Then I started panicking. I looked over at Connor and Travis, who were doing some sort of weird hand-clapping game. "Guys!" I snapped at them, "Don't you realize that Tree-face over here is being attacked!"
"Naw." Travis replied, "She's Thalia. She'll make it okay." Obviously, this answer was not good enough for Nico the Ninja. I turned toward the Vampire, and screamed "NO ONE MESSES WITH MY THALIA!" While repeatedly hitting him with my plastic sword. The guy was a real weakling, because all he said was "Ow! Dude, you're gonna rip my cape." So I asked him why he was hitting Thalia. Apparently, his sister was the princess that Thalia stole candy from, and her brother was not happy. Once he straightened his cape again, he tried to attack me too. I didn't like that so much, so I might have had the ground swallow him or something… I'm not exactly sure, it's all kind of fuzzy. Of course, the whole encounter was totally not my fault. In the end, we can blame it on Thalia for getting all angry and stuff. So see, there are plenty of good things about my hyper Halloween… At least, most of it was pretty fun until we ran into Drew showed up….
