A/N: So here we are. Around six months later, and you finally get the final chapter! To all the people who have stuck with me all this time, throughout this crazy crack-fic of a story, I thank you. You are way more loyal to me than I am to you. It really does mean a lot. Wow. This was a randomly crazy story, was it not?

Quite the adventure. So once again, I thank you, and I hope you've enjoyed my tale!


Nico's POV:

My mind was racing at a trillion miles a second. What can I say? I don't react well to sugar. It was addictive though; the more I ate, the more I wanted. That wouldn't do, though, because when they locked us up in jail… our candy was confiscated.

Sometimes, when I look back on the night, I get almost embarrassed at my crazy behavior. Macho men weren't supposed to act hyper! But I must stress once again the fact that I drank five-hour energy, monster, and buttloads of candy. Yes, I just said buttloads.

Sue me. Percy gaped at the scene unfolding. Thalia hadn't run out of fuel quite yet, and was still taking her sweet time screaming at everyone who annoyed her in the slightest. I knew it would go on for a while, and I was pretty sure we weren't getting out any time soon, so I did the only logical explanation to help us solve the problem of our imprisonment.

I began to sing.

"Here's a llama there's a llama and another little llama fuzzy llama funny llama, llama llama duck. Llama llama cheesecake llama tablet brick potato llama. Llama llama mushroom llama, llama llama duck. I was once a tree house, I lived in a cake, but I never saw the way the orange slayed the rake. I was only three years dead but it told a tale, and now listen little child to the safety rail."

"Nico? What are you doing?" Annabeth whispered, stirring from her sleep. I ignored her, in true Nico fashion.

"Did you ever see a llama kiss a llama on the llama. Llama's llama tastes of llama, llama llama duck. Half a llama twice a llama not a llama farmer llama llama in a car alarm a llama, llama duck. Is that how it's told now? Is it oh so old? Is it made of lemon juice, doorknob ankle cold. Now my song is getting thin, I've run out of luck. Time for me to retire now, and become a duck."

"Guys…" Annabeth called out to the general group. "I think Nico's finally lost it."

"Finally?" Percy asked. "I don't think he ever really had it in the first place."

"I think it went out with the ninja costume." Travis guessed.

That was when I realized. I WAS DRESSED LIKE A NINJA! YES!

"Ninja ninja ninja ninja ninja!" I chanted, running around kicking things.

"NICO!" Thalia yelled, in typical Thalia fashion. "CALM YOURSELF DOWN. THIS IS SERIOUS. Has everyone forgotten where we are? We. Are. In. Jail! Come on guys. Brainstorm." I could sense a lecture coming on, so I quickly started humming to myself again.

"Ick!" Drew complained. "How could I forget! This place is disgusting. There are no mirrors, and no sparkles, and no closets, and no anything good! Are they even going to give us a trial? Ugh. I'm too exhausted to think. Can anyone think for me?"

Connor sat moping in the corner. "Come on Drew! Why couldn't you have just charm-speaked the guy into giving us the pizza! I mean, seriously. Pizza makes everything better."

"Amen to that!" Travis shouted.

"Charm speak… charm speak… CHARM SPEAK?! How did we not think of this twenty minutes ago!" Annabeth yelled, the stupidity she felt broadcasted on her face.

"Charm speak charm speak charmy charmy charm speak." I said. "Charms. I like Lucky Charms. That leprechaun is so cute. Almost as cute as the Trix rabbit. Honestly, those commercials bug me. Day in and day out, I can hear those voices… taunting him…. 'Silly rabbit! trix are for kids!' Well you know what I say? Just give him the darn cereal already! He only wants one thing… and he's the mascot! If people can buy their way into the American Government system, then surely the dang rabbit can buy some cereal."

"Nico!" Percy snapped. "It doesn't matter." Well someone is mister irritable. It was his idea to go trick-or-treating after all!

Annabeth however, had her mind churning out ideas one by one. She was muttering about how "unbelievable" it was, and how she "couldn't believe she didn't think of it." Girls… I'll never understand them. I'm not sure Thalia even realized Annabeth had ideas, she was still going on my llama song rant, not even realizing I wasn't even listening.

Percy's POV:

Once Drew got a hold of Annabeth's idea, she immediately started working on the guards.

"And that's why I really think you should let all of us go right now"

The guard looked dazed.

"Uh… okay…"

"And," Drew spoke, her voice like honey, "You should really get rid of all of that paperwork that says we've been here. Sound good?"

"Uh… okay…"

It still creeps me out how she could do that.

I was slowly getting more, and more sleepy. Every hour we spent made me wish more and more that I had just stayed home and watched Troll 2 with my mom. Or maybe watched Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog…. Man. That video never gets old…

"Thanks to me, we can all go home now!" Drew said, flipping her hair. I rolled my eyes. Typical Drew behavior. She's one of those people I wouldn't mind running over with a bus… In a friendly, heroic way of course.

"How do you run over someone in a friendly way?" Annabeth asked me. Oops. Guess I said that out loud.

"Doesn't matter." I said, threw a yawn.

As we all walked away, in one long line of rowdy half-god teenagers, I think the absurdity of the entire night finally seemed to sink in. Suddenly, I'm not even sure why, but I just started laughing. It started out as a chuckle, but soon spread into something more, and something bigger. One of those deep laughs that warmed up every inch of me, which was a good thing, considering that by now it was November 1st, and bitter cold. The laugh first spread through me, into Annabeth. Then Thalia loosened up, and started laughing too. I think she finally realized how weird she was acting. Next it was Connor's turn to laugh, then Travis's. Nico laughed next. Then, finally, even Drew loosened up and began to laugh. And we were all laughing, together. It sounds really cheesy and weird writing it down, but even though it was around five in the morning and we were all totally out of it, I think it was one of those moments where I truly felt alive. And real.

I felt the least normal I have ever felt in my entire life, but for the first time in a while… that wasn't a bad thing…

"We probably won't remember any of this tomorrow." I whispered to Annabeth, when the laughter died down into a calming silence. Even Nico was quiet, and that was definitely saying something.

"I don't know… I think you'd be surprised. This is a pretty crazy night." Then we stopped. The rest of the group moved ahead of us, barely noticing we'd stopped, or at least not caring. She leaned in close to me. "Between you in me," she whispered, "You're the prettiest princess I've ever seen." Then, right as I thought our lips were about to meet, she reached up on her tip-toes and plucked the tiara off my head. So much for romance.

We walked along side each other, and it was really cute. She leaned against me, still really tired, and I was acutely aware of our very obvious height difference.

Suddenly, we were at my house. "Well…" She said, reluctantly. "This is your stop."

"Isn't the guy supposed to walk the girl home?" I joked.

She hushed me, and said, "Look at the others." I did, and it provided me for one, last, final laugh before the end of the night. I thought I had it reversed, but then I saw Thalia giving Nico a piggyback ride to my doorstep.

"He's going to crash here for the rest of the night. That okay?"

"Yeah, sure." I said. Then she left too.

And that was it. My night. The whole thing. Start to finish.

It seems a lot less interesting when I tell it back.

As I carried Nico inside, I noticed my mom waiting up for me.

"You're still awake?" I asked.

"Shh. You'll wake Nico. It's no problem, they had a Scary Movie marathon on HBO. Did you guys have a good time?"

"Uh… Yeah. Yeah mom, I think we had a really great time."

"Did you stay out of trouble?" She asked, with a knowing smile.

I grinned, and said, "No more than usual."

And that's when I solved the question of the night. I then knew exactly how I had gotten myself into it.

I'm Percy Jackson, and I don't react well to sugar.
