Not nearly as many of you reviewed as I would have hoped so I guess I'm gonna have to put off the Superpower Idea until I get more Reviews. I'm feeling too lazy right now to try and make a funny and witty comment.

Chapter 10
The Stoll Brothers Fight Over Me
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"What's Project Floodstorm?" I asked for the second time in 10 seconds.
"Percy, have you been living in a cave for the past 3 days?" Asked Clarisse with an exasperating look.
"No, but I have been in my cabin for 12 Hours" I said thinking that might have something to do with my confusion.
"Yeah, but Annbeth was with you and she knows" Thalia pointed out.
"Oh yeah…Annabeth why didn't you tell me?"
"Slipped my mind?" She said embarrassedly.
"Umm Percy, why were you and Annbeth in a room together for 12 hours?" I heard my Mom's voice come from behind Nico.
"Sleeping"
Everyone's faces turned an odd color of pink and Nico and Grover just had their mouths open in a gape. I heard a wolf whistle in the background. I'm gonna kill Travis…
"Oh come on not like that!"
"Perseus Jackson did you…"
"Mom! Not like that!"
I was jealous of Annabeth as I saw her slipping away behind the group.
"Mom! Nothing happened!!!"
"Well talk about this later. Where's Annabeth?" Oh this is just lovely…
"Look, Guys can you just tell me what Project Floodstorm is right now?" Thalia took over and started talking.
"Project Floodstorm is an Intelligence operation"
"Umm, Huh?" She sighed.
"Look, 6 hours before the whole Drakon incident we saw on the news what had happened to Manhattan. When we saw what happened, the Athena cabin and my Hunters concocted a plan…"
"Concocted?"
"Made"
"Oh"
"As I was saying, they made a plan to learn as much as they can about Oceanus. For instance, his allies, what he wants, and most importantly what he's willing to do to get it"
"This is interesting and all but what does it have to do with me?" I couldn't help but feel like this was a cheesy remake of CSI.
"A Quest"
"A Quest?" I asked confused.
"An Intelligence scout. We need someone to go out and gather intelligence from Poseidon"
"Why me?"
"Why do you think!? I'm starting to get why Annabeth calls you Seaweed Brain! You're his son! You can breath underwater! You have perfect bearings at sea! You don't need any reason beside that!"
"Ok Sorry! Sheesh! Wouldn't it be better if we continued this at the arena with all the Counselors?"
"Fine. Lets go." Thalia obviously wasn't in that good a mood. She seemed really irritable even for herself. This "Project" must have been getting to her.
I followed her along with Nico, Clarisse, Grover, and Annabeth.. Mom and Rachel started to go toward the big house. I wonder why… Behind us Chiron, the Stoll brothers, Jake from Hephaestus, Erika from Aphrodite, and Thomas from Apollo got up from their seats and started following us.
"When we reached the Sword Arena it was empty. Deserted even. I guess everyone was busy with that "Project" We all sat down. In the stands.
"Ok, So first of all what do I have to do exactly?" Thalia replied.
"Simple. Go to Poseidon's Kingdom underwater and try to gather as much Info on the situation there as we possibly can."
"Why can't he just teleport me there like he usually would?"
"Well since the Kingdom is under siege by Oceanus's forces any way of entering has been closed off by Ancient defensive barriers put up by Poseidon a long time ago. There is only one 1 way in and out. Through the gate to the underwater city."
"So do I get a prophecy?"
"No need" this time Chiron said it. "We know exactly what we need to do so there's no need to ask Rachel" Wow, never thought I would think about asking Rachel for a prophecy.
"Do I take anyone with me?"
"Same as any quest. Chose 2 people."
"Grover and Annabeth."
"No"
"Good, I'll leave tom. Wait what?"
"They're both needed. Annabeths running the whole thing and Grover's working with Niads for info on the Atlantic Ocean." Thalia said.
"But…" I couldn't imagine a quest a quest without Annabeth. She was with me on every quest and the one that she wasn't on was to save her!
"No buts"
"Fine, you and Nico?"
"We cant come either"
"You're kidding"
"I'm working with the hunters on locating the other titans and Nico is talking with the Dead to learn more and recruit an army"
"Come on!"
"Percy! We can't! We need to be prepared! Do you want another incident like the Titan war again?!"
"It's already worse!" I was sort of glad Thalia wasn't coming. She was annoying me like crazy.
"So do you want it to get even worse than that?"
"Fine, Connor and Travis Stoll" I saw Connor wake up from his nap at the mention of his name. Travis just had an expression on his face that said "What just happened?"
"Only one of them"
"WHAT!" I was pissed now. "What do you mean only one!"
"I need one of them for spy operations"
"Pick me!" I heard Travis yell "I hate that job! I don't even get to kill any monsters!"
"Fine, Travis and…"
"No! Me!" Connor yelled! "I'm funnier!"
"You are not!" Travis said.
"Yes I am."
"No you're not!
"Who made mom laugh when uncle Bob died?"
"Me!"
"Oh yeah…"
"Oh my god! Shut up! Flip a coin!" I never thought I would see the day when two 16 year olds would fight like 4 year olds over a job like a piece of twizzler.
"Fine lets flip a coin" Travis said.
"Fine"
"Umm can I borrow a coin"
"I don't have one!"
I looked at the other counsel member. They were al watching the exchange with laughing expressions. Even Thalia who was acting like an old lady.
I took out a quarter and chucked it at the two fighting wonder twins.
"Oww what was that for!" Connor yelled.
"Hahahah!" Travis laughed.
"Shut up."
"No"
"Would you two just flip the coin already!" I liked them but they could be really annoying at times.
"Ok, Fine, but I call Tails!"
"No I want Tails!"
"Why do you guys want tails?" I asked.
"Cause It looks like a Horses A…"
"Ok! That's enough! Connor is tails! Now flip"
Travis flipped the coin.
It landed on heads.
"Yes!"
"No! The Horses buttocks failed me!" I sighed at Connors stupidity.
"The people I chose are Travis and Clarisse"
"Finally!" Thalia said. "You leave tomorrow"
"Why not today?"
"Because it's 7.00 PM? And also, there's a Capture the flag game tonight."
