AAAAAACHOOOOOOO!

Ugh... I hate colds. *sniffles* I know how we can get happier by-*violent coughing*- getting a new chapter-*sneezes*-and maybe some-*LONG sniffle* Delsym-? *COUGH* *COUGH* *COUGH*

All I heard was screaming. Lots of screaming.

"Meeting over. EVERYONE TO THE BASEMENT!" Chiron yelled over the intercom.

While we were running, I heard Percy ask why the Capitol was doing this.

"Because they think we captured a pawn in their games, and guess what? We did!" Annabeth answered. Percy flinched.

The only ones unaware of the bombs was the Stoll brothers, and they were trying to pickpoket unsuspecting campers. There is something so wrong with them that it concerns me...

The explosion, however, was what brought me back to the present. The arts and crafts building went sky-high.

"NO! It was so beautiful!" a girl from Apollo's cabin screamed, falling to her knees. She must really love arts and crafts. But then I noticed the clay figure in front of her. Oy vey! Wait. When do I "exclaim" in Yiddish...?

"Come on-!" Annabeth started, talking to her younger half-sister. "Oh no. Alex! Get outta there!" There was a hovercraft right above the Athena cabin, and ropes were starting to fall onto the roof. Peacemakers are going to be swarming the camp in minutes!

I might regret this later, but I ran to the Athena cabin, ignoring the screams of protest, and grabbed the girl's hand.

"Come on. We need to go!" I tried running back, but she can't run anywhere near my speed. And I almost tripped on a rock that I couldn't see in the darkness. Out of desperation, I stopped, turned around, and picked her up and ran as fast as I could, without tripping on random things, to the basement.

When I made it to the entrance, Annabeth grabbed the girl, and told her to run as fast as she could down the stairs with the others. Thank the gods the basement was at least twice the size of the Big House, because there are a lot of kids here.

"Come on. The older campers and counselors of every cabin are staying outside to see if we can hold the Peacemakers off." Annabeth explained. Oh, as soon as they find me fighting with the camp, President Snow will kill me. If his fight doesn't first.

"Freeze!" The Head Peacekeeper yelled as soon as he hit the ground, pionting his gun at us. The rest followed his lead.

"No. We will never surender to the wazbags that stand infront of us!" Good going Thalia. We're going to die before the Games are even over. Woo-pie.

"Then suffer the consequences!" He pulled the trigger, and the bullet came flying.

"Wait for it," Thalia mummbled. "Wait for it... NOW!" She dove to the side, as did the others, and lightning struck the bullet, causing it to explode. My hair flew infront of my face while I hit the ground.

"Couldn't have hit the Peacemaker!?" Percy asked.

"No! Not yet. I want him to suffer." Percy stared at her as if she'd gone crazy. And she has.

"Ho- how did- How did you do that!?" he asked.

"You don't know what kind of a place you hit, do you?" Thalia asked, rising slowly to make it dramatic.

"We hit an illegal camp outside the borders of District 12." We're outside of 12?

"No. You hit-"

"Thalia! Ixnay on the emigod-day." Percy mummbled, kicking Thalia on the shin.

"OW!" The Peacemakers just stared at her. "There was a... bug." They shrugged it off.

"I was told to bring destruction to this place, no matter who gets in my way!" he said.

"Funny. I was told the same thing." Thalia does not know when to quit. Oh, well. As long as it prolongs our death.

"By who?" he yelled.

"By a person you sure don't believe in, that's for sure!" Surprisingly, that came from Annabeth. All heads turned to her. "We are people you would never ever beileve in."

"What do you mean 'never believe in'?" he asked.

Annabeth looked to Percy, and he spoke up. "We're demigods. The children of mortals and the Greek gods themselves!"

There was a minute of silence, the the Peacemakers burst out laughing.

"Demi- demi- HAHAHAHAHAHA!" We just stared at them.

"YES!" Percy said, cutting the laughing short. "Demigods." He then raised his hand, and the water from the lake did the same. The Peacemakers went from laughing, to smiling, to staring with wide eyes, to screaming and running. Percy smiled.

"And now... My turn!"

I'll try to-*sneezes* update next Saturday. Oo look! The Nanny is on!
