Mila-is-a-bookworm-101 - Don't worry about it, I'm sure no one knows, and they are just writing them for absolutly no reason. Well no, it'll be explained, I don't want to give away to much, either way here is a cookie for admitting you couldn't give me an answer. (::)
PJoHoOFan - I'll see what I can do. Don't die, breath in breath out. I wil don't worry
Just-Kiss-Her-Peeta - I really do't like the book (hunger Games) because it didn't make sense to me (probably beause I fell alsleep in class when we were reading it) but I'll see if I can read it again, just to give it a second chance.
Thanks for your wonderful reviews, I really appreciate it.
Me: I'm so sorry, It took me so long to update, I've just had a lot of things to do and I'm a much more busy than usual.
Audience: Let this be the last time
Me: I'll try, besides give me a break, today is my special day? (he, he that rhymed.)
Audience: *nods head then looks at me* what's today?
Me: guess
Audience *glares* well tell you when we think of something, now do the disclaimer
ME: Hello, Rick Riordan is my dad, I am his daughter that no one knows about, and he has given me the rights of all his books.
AUDIENCE: Liar *throws tomatoes and boos at her*
Me *Dodges a tomato then another one hits her on the face* fine, I'm a liar
Audience: do the disclaimer right.
Me: I am not Rick Riordan's daughter and he has not given me the right to the books, so I owe nothing except the Single Hades' song and Percy's mortal friends besides Rachel. Also, everyone's schedule is the same except for 3rd, 7th, and 8th period. Now shall we go on.
I hope you appreciate that I updated earlier then normal.

Percy's POV
Maybe it was just me, but I felt my hands shake as I drove. I decided to pay a visit to my mom, then I would go with Larissa, Destiny, Lola, AJ, and Jack. (Kevin wnet somewhere with his parents for the weekend.)
I parked my car in the parking lot. I walked to my apartment. I took my keys out and tried to open the door. The problem was that I was to shaken up, literally and not. I put my keys in my pocket and knocked.
My mom opened the door "Percy, why didn't you use your keys?" she asked as she moved a little so I could go in
"Sorry, I'm just not feeling the need to use keys today, I couldn't even put the key in the car"
She smiled "so how did you sleep last night?"
"Besides the dreams, great"
"Did you use it?"
"Use what?"
"Prote-"
"Oh, mom, nothing happened"
"I Iris messaged you with Thalia and you were just wearing your boxers and Annabeth had your camp shirt on"
"That doesn't mean anything" I said as I sat down on a chair in the kitchen
"You sure?"
I nodded
My mom seemed to notice my shaking hands and handed me a glass of water "thanks" I said
"You're welcome"
I grabbed the glass, I could barely hold it. Why had that dream shaken me up so bad?
"Percy, are you okay?"
"Yes" I said "why would you think that I'm not?"
"Well, you're shaking, so bad it looks like there's an earthquake only around you"
"Nice one mom, you need to teach me how to make puns on the spot, I'm feeling a little... punny."
She laughed. "You don't learn, you inherit."
"Where's Paul?"
She put a hand on my forehead and moved it to my cheeks "he went to a teacher conferences, Percy, are you sure your okay?"
I put my hands on her's "yes mom, I'm fine?"
"Then why are you shaking so much"
"It's just a demigod dream mom, it shook me up a little"
"A little, have you seen how bad you're shaking, I'm sure that if we put milk and eggs and chocolate powder in your hands you would make a milkshake, add a little ice and you make a smoothie"
I laughed "I see where I got my humor from"
"Partly" she smiled "so any plans for the weekend besides sleep"
"I have the weekend off, so I'm taking Thalia and Annabeth with me to camp for both days"
My mom nodded "say hi to your friends for me when you get there, also, I don't think you want to go in your work cloths, do you?"
"No"
"Well then, go change and go pack"
"After I pack, I'm going to go see my friends from school"
"Alright, just don't keep Thalia and Annabeth waiting to long"
"Okay" I said as I got up and walked to my room. I got my extra back pack and put some cloths in there, I zipped it up and put in a corner of my room. I went to the bathroom and took a shower. I got out and changed into a plain black shirt and a pair of jeans.
Sadly I was still shaking. I threw my backpack over my shoulder and walked to the living room. My mom was sitting on the couch watching TV, she turned to look at me and smiled. "Are you ready to go?"
I nodded
"Enjoy your days off" she said as she kissed my forehead
"Will do" I said "love ya"
"Love you too" and I walked out.
I got in my car and examined my hands. They were still shaking. I sighed and carefully put the key in and turned it. The car roared to life and I drove out. I went to central park, which was our usual hang out.
I parked and got out. I walked to the lake and my friends were there, sitting in front of it.
"Hey guys" I said
They're heads turned "hey Percy" they said
"What are you guys planning on doing today?" I asked them as I sat down, finishing the circle
"Follow you around" Lola said
"Oh, you can't, not today"
"Why not?" Lola asked.
"Cause I'm going to camp with Thalia and my girlfriend"
"Right, the one you photosho-" Jack was interrupted by AJ
"Actually guys, she's real" AJ said "I kind of called dibs on her yesterday when I went to talk to Percy at subway, then it turned out she was already taken"
"Got that right" I murmured
"We wont believe it, until we see her." Jack and Larissa and Lola said.
AJ shrugged "I wont push"
"So how long are you going to stay?" Destiny asked
"A half an hour or maybe more"
"Cool." And the most awkward silence started.
"Would you guys be so kind to remind me where Kevin is?"
"Well, he was supposed to be at a beach by now but his mom wasn't feeling to good." Lola said.
"So why isn't he here?" I asked.
"Perce, he has a sister and brother who were very excited to the beach, where do you think he is?" Destiny asked.
"The beach?" I guessed.
"Nope, better."
"Water park?" I guessed again.
"Close." Jack said.
"Oh for the love of my dad, just motherfudging tell me." I whined.
"Six Flags." Larissa said.
"That son of a mother didn't invite you?"
"He only had money for three Perce, besides, he barely gets time alone with his siblings."
"True. You know for an October day, it's pretty warm." I pointed out.
"Winter is just setting in." Larissa said.
Then a phone rang, Lola took her phone out and answered it, when she hang up she gave it to me "can you hold onto it for a little, I'll be back in a few minutes, it's turned off, just so you know."
I nodded and put it in my pocket and she ran off to gods knows where. After about half an hour of talking (man she is taking long.) and playing the same game over and over again, an Iris message appeared behind Jack.
"My turn," AJ said "Perce what are your favorite words"
"Accept Iris message, or before you talk, read, write, show" I said.
Annabeth understood and wrote something on a piece of paper that said 'let's go, where are you?'
I nodded my head.
"You okay Perce?" Destiny asked.
"Yeah, I just felt something buzzing around my head.
"Okay..."
"Don't stare at me like that guys, you are making me feel like a weirdo."
"You are a weirdo." They chorused.
"Hahaha, what time is it?"
"Almost four." Jack supplied.
"Crap, gotta go, bye."
"Bye"
"Bye" I said again. I ran off towards the direction where my car was and got in. My hands weren't shaking as much, I was a little calmer now. I got out the parking lot and drove to Annabeth's apartment.
"Hey, Percy" Annabeth said as she got into the shot-gun seat
"Hey, sorry I'm late"
"It's okay"
"Where is Thalia?"
"She had to use the ladies' forest"
"Oh"
"Percy, what's with that scar on your arm, the big one"
"Oh, uhm-"
"Sorry, I had to take care of my bitness"
Saved by Thalia.
"It's okay, you guy's ready?"
"Yeah" I started to drive
"So, Percy, what's with that scar on your arm, you didn't really gave me a truthful answer" Thalia said
My hands started to shake again, even more than before, so much it seemed like I was driving recklessly.
"Percy, are you okay?" Thalia asked
"Yeah, maybe you should drive"
"You sure?"
I nodded
"Okay, just park somewhere so we can switch spots"
I nodded and stopped at a gas station. I looked at the gas meter.
"Hey, let me put some gas in the car first, or else we'll be stranded"
Thalia nodded "just hurry up"
I walked inside. The guy looked to be in his twentys.
"30 bucks, pump number 13" I winced, sometime, I hated that number
"Alright, will that be all?" the voice seemed familiar, I looked up to see Gabe's face. That couldn't be, he was dead. The guy waved his hand in front of my face, I blinked and he was back to normal "sir, are you alright?"
"Yea- yeah, hey do you have anything that calms down nerves?"
"I heard chocolate calms them"
"Alright" I got nine baggies of kitkats, three for each one of us "thank you"
"Anytime" I walked out and Thalia had the pump or straw like thingy in the gas tank thingy
"Percy, are you alright?" she asked "you look like you've seen a ghost"
"I'm fine, don't worry about it"
She didn't seem convinced but didn't push it
I got in and gave Annabeth her 3 packs of chocolate "here"
"What's this for?"
"I got some for me and I tought it was fair if I got some for you guys," I said "and besides isn't chocolate the candy of love" I whispered in her ear
Annabeth laughed and turned a little so hour lips could meet "you are so cheesy sometimes"
I grinned "my girlfriend deserves only the cheesiest"
She laughed "what would I do without you?"
"Dunno, be a loner"
"Why are you shaking?"
"Uhm, it's my nerves, I haven't been right since I woke up"
"The dream?"
I nodded "I rather not talk about it" I said
She nodded her head in understanding and turned around. I took one of my chocolates out and nibbled on it for a little, it really was calming my nerves.
"Alright, sit back and enjoy the ride" Thalia said and I handed her, her chocolates "what's this for?"
"I got some and I thought that it would be fair if you had some as well"
She nodded "thanks."
As she drove, I stared out the window, eating my chocolate bars and thinking about my dreams and my scars. Eventually, I fell asleep.
*Percy's Dream*
It was four weeks before school started. I was five. My mom was at work. I was in my room, looking at the ceiling hoping for some awesome miracle to happen. I was also hoping that Gabe wouldn't call me. But as fate wants it, he did.
"Hey, stupid kid, get your worthless little ass over here"
I gulped and got up, praying to God, that he wouldn't hurt me.
"Yes Gabe?" I asked
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"I got a new knife"
I felt fear run threw me as I remembered the cut on my arm "and?" I asked nervously
"I need a test dummy" he grinned
"Uhm, could you buy one online?"
"No, of course not, why waste money when I have one in front of me?"
My eyes widened "no,no,no,no, please, no" I pleaded
"I need a dummy, Perseus, you are perfect for the job, you should be honored"
"No, please" I took small steps back trying to get away unnoticed
"Come on, take your shirt off" he said
"What?"
"You heard me, take your shirt off"
"No, please Gabe, don't hurt me again" I was crying by then
"Come on kid, obey"
"No!" I turned around and ran, this time I did manged to set some distance between him and me, but not enough
He picked me up by my neck and threw me against the wall. My tiny body laid on the floor, my brain registering pain and fear.
"I told you to obey!" Gabe growled "now take your shirt off, cause if you make me do it, your mom will see your lifeless body, do you want her to see that?"
I nodded in a no gesture and took my shirt off "that's much better." Gabe hovered over me, knife in hand. I closed my eyes and prepared for the pain. "Now, don't you dare shout or cry."
I bit my lip and pretty soon I felt jolts of pain on my stomach. I put too much pressure on my lips cause pretty soon I tasted blood.
"Good boy, I expect you to move before your mother gets here, also don't tell her about this" and he left.
After a few minutes I grabbed my shirt and put it on my tummy. I stood up slowly and made my way to the bathroom. I put water on my wound and it stopped bleeding and it closed, but scars were left.
I didn't have much energy, but I knew that if I didn't clean the blood in the living room, Gabe would kill me. Literally. I grabbed my shirt and soaked it in water, I went to the living room and cleaned up my blood, I put my shirt in a bag and hid it under my bed.
I slowly laid down on my bed. All I could do was lay on my back and cry silently, letting it all out before my mom came home, then I would act as if nothing happened.
*End of Percy's dream*
"Percy, Percy, wake up, we're at camp" I opened my eyes and saw Annabeth and Thalia staring at me with concern
"What?" I asked
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah, why would you ask that?"
"Well because you were whimpering and crying in your sleep, you are sweaty and panting" Thalia said
She was right, my breaths were quick and my shirt was wet with sweat.
"It's nothing, just something I didn't want to remember" I said "come on let's go, Chiron must be waiting for us"
They nodded, I guess they understood that I needed some room. I got out and threw my backpack over my shoulder and walked to Annabeth. I grabbed her hand and we both walked up and down the hill.
The lights of the big house were on and a form was outside. I looked at my watch, it read 6:30.
"Hello, Percy, Annabeth, Thalia"
"Hi Chiron" we said
"It's good to have you here, even if it's for a day or two"
We nodded "we should probably take our stuff to our cabins"
He nodded "alright, after you do that, go do whichever activities you want"
We nodded and we left. I stopped at my cabin and gave Annabeth a peck on the lips "I'll see you later just let me put my stuff in my cabin"
"Okay" she kissed me and walked away with Thalia. I walked into my cabin and dropped my bag on the bunk. I breath in the fresh air of the sea and exhaled deeply. Same Ol' cabin 3.
Just as I turned around to reach for the door, I saw something out the corner of my eye, I turned around and saw something go under the bed. I got on my knees and looked, but there was nothing. I stood up and the first thing I saw was the minotaur horn, it had something different to it. It had something in it.
I frown and took it out. I looked at it, it was in a case. I took it out and I found myself holding a pocket knife. Again my hands were shaking, worse than before. That was the knife Gabe used to hurt me the second time. I swear on the Styx it was the same exact one.
I dropped the knife and took slow steps back. Blindly, I turned the door knob and kept walking back, I tripped and I fell to the ground outside of my cabin.
"Percy! what's wrong?" I heard Annabeth say as she put a hand on my shoulder
I couldn't talk, I just pointed at my cabin. Annabeth yelled "somebody, get Percy to Chiron or the infirmary." then said "Thalia help me look"
"Look for what?"
"Anything out of place"
A bunch of Apollo kids helped me up. I was still in shock. Call me a wimp, but I dare you to see the two first knife that your ex step-dad used to hurt you and stay cool and collected, oh, also add the dreams, the memories you hoped to forget and still stay sane. And don't forget the fact, that you thought you had gotten rid of all the knifes and add the fact that your ex step-dad is DEAD!
Alright, this chapter is fixed. Looks much better to me know. Do Not re-answer this question if you have answered it before. Thanks.

Question of the chapter - When is Thalia's birthday? (I need it detailed.)
You can ask me questions as well, it doesn't have to be PJO related.
