Disclaimer: I am really tired of doing this. But... I ;;l;;;lcssdo not own the series. Or characters. Or the school. Mr. Rick Riordan and Ancient people do, but Annabeth and Athena owns Percy and Poseidon. Katie owns Travis, Clarissee owns Chirs, Metis or Hera owns Zeus, and stuff and stuff.
Third Person Point of View:
Finally, it was Friday. The last day of the week. Everyone was in a good mood save one goddess, perhaps.
Hera did not know what to think. She felt safe knowing that her husband will no longer be cheating on him... but at the same time, he will. With his first queen, the first Queen of Olympus. Hera was his third... the one he cheated on the most, no. The only one he cheated on. Just that thought made her burn with anger. But she knew it was irrational. Why should she be jealous? She is the current queen, not Metis. But there was a voice of doubt in her mind. After all, Zeus was only joined with her around three in the morning.
Meanwhile, Athena, Poseidon, Artemis and Hermes have still not join the others at the breakfast table.
"Should we go call them?" asked Annabeth.
Metis scowled, thinking of what she saw yesterday... "Definitely not. At least the bell stopped ringing, so we know that they are awake."
"Probably makeing-out," Ares sighed, wolfing down his waffles and bacon.
Metis pushed her unfinished scrambled eggs away. "Excuse me. I need to finish up my homework."
Everyone's jaws dropped, besides from the 4 that were absent, herself, and Zeus.
"YOU DIDN'T FINISH YOUR HOMEWORK?!"
"Shut it," Metis snapped. "In my defense, I think it is the stupidest thing ever and will take me two minutes at most. Very easy."
Everyone nodded in understanding.
"Now, aunt." Apollo said, winking. "Were you really that busy?"
A blush crept up the titaness's face, making Hera burn with jealousy.
"Just joking!" Apollo laughed.
Athena and Poseidon chose that moment to walk in.
"What's so funny, Apollo?"
"Oh! Uncle P! What were you doing? You missed all the fun! Aunt Metis here," he pointed to the retreating women. "Did not complete her homework! And so we asked her what she was doing."
"I was taking a shower," Poseidon answered, gesturing towards a nymph to get him his breakfast and took a seat.
"You, Athena?" Zeus winking at her daughter.
Athena's mouth was suddenly a thin line. She took a seat and ate her bagel. "Iris Messaging someone." She turned to Annabeth. "About the Chase family reunion tomorrow."
Annabeth groaned and pushed her bowl of cereal away. "Do I have to go?" Her voice was just above a whisper.
"Yes you do." Athena's voice was stern, betraying none of her emotions. In her mind, she was laughing.
The daughter of Athena scowled but then smirked. "Alright, mother. Since this is a family reunion, and you are my mother, I believe you should be there too."
The goddess almost choked on her coffee. "WHAT?!"
"We have a date planned," The King of Seas tried to save the women he loves.
"Oh? To where?" Annabeth asked, crossing her hands.
"That's not the point! A goddess attending a mortal family reunion? That is just simply absurd!"
Annabeth frowned. "But still, you are my mother. You can't watch me suffer."
Athena sighed, giving in. Okay, so maybe Annabeth did have a point.
"She has a point, darling. Annabeth is in the Chase family, and you are her mother."
Now Athena can't go anywhere. "Fine!"
She glanced at the clock and finished her coffee. "I'm taking a walk in the garden and then leaving in the Ferrari."
Wisdom nodded and leaned back in her chair. "What are you staring at? Yes, I am done with my homework, got a problem?"
"Um... I will be training in the arena." Clarisse spluttered and got up to leave. Chris left soon too. And everyone excused themselves until only three remained: Hera, Metis and Zeus.
"So..." Zeus cleared his throat. "While they are at the family reunion, what will we be doing?"
Hera shrugged.
"Homework." Metis answered, clearing of the table and using the plates as frisbees.
"Ugh, you two are boring!" Zeus groaned.
"Then what do you want to do?" Hera asked.
"Family bonding," Zeus said.
"Without our daughter and grandaughter? How will it be called family bonding?"
"Well, Metis, dear." Zeus leaned forward. "I heard from Athena that the family reunion is very close to the mansion, on a farm nearby. And that is near a beach that the Chase family would go on Sunday. How about on Sunday we crash the reunion?"
Metis held a hand up. "Afterwards. We'll talk about it after school." She got up and left for school in a porsche.
"Crashing the family reunion on Sunday?" asked Annabeth after school.
"Yep!" Zeus beamed.
Hermes and Apollo cheered, only to have Artemis hit them both.
"Doesn't sound like a bad idea," said Poseidon, high-fiving Zeus.
Hades nodded.
"I guess," Percy said unsurely, glad that he won't have to suffer that much. Annabeth had thought that it would be a great idea to ask her father to drag him along too. Obviously, Frederick Chase agreed, despite his wife saying no.
"Not a bad idea," Athena admitted. "But you will only have one fourth of the beach to play with. They are renting the rest."
"Even when the weather man said it was going to rain?" Travis asked.
"The weather man is a clear sighted mortal. Besides, it was only a 10% prediction." Katie said softly.
"The adults in the family knows my identity, which is why even the ones that loathe me want me along. I don't think my own grandfather will be cruel enough to drench me." Annabeth slumped into her chair. "I don't want to go though."
"If I am in a bad mood," Zeus shrugged. "Yea, that will happen."
"It can't really be that bad," Hera said. After the war, Hera had swallowed her pride and apologized and tried to be a good step-grandmother."
"Worse than my relationship with you after the Labyrinth." Annabeth said seriously. "So bad that I had to run away at the age of seven."
Hera frowned. "That's not a good family."
Annabeth shrugged. "My father's wife thought I was endangering their family. She was okay when dad was home. When he is at work? Not so much."
The air was tense. "Dismissed!" Zeus finally concluded.
"When did you start liking me, Hermes?"
The couple was sitting in the garden's bench. Well, the Goddess of the Hunt was sitting on the lap of a certain god.
"One day after I became a god," Hermes played with her hair.
"Already?" asked Artemis.
"You are the most beautiful creature I have ever seen," The god lifted his companion's chin. "But once I thought Aphrodite were you when she was bathing. So I stole-"
Artemis chuckled. "Cheesy."
Hermes smiled and stole several kisses.
"Ahem!" Apollo cleared his throat loudly.
The couple jumped and Artemis quickly slipped down from his lap.
"I hope you are still a virgin, little sister."
Artemis frowned and slapped him. "I have not lost my virginity. And I am older."
"No, you are not."
"I am."
" Am not!"
"Yes!"
"No!"
"Yes I am!"
"No you're not!"
"Yes!"
"NO!"
"YES!"
"Hermes!" The twins said in sync.
"I don't know, I am younger than both of you, remember?"
Artemis fumed and threw a coin in the air to make an Iris Message.
"Iris! This is Artemis! Show me my father!"
And they did. But they saw Zeus on top of Metis...
Zeus whipped around and scowled. "Is there a problem?!" He thundered.
"Father," Apollo complained. "We want you to prove that I am older."
"Now, Apollo. Let's be rational about it. Since I am the older one here, it's obvious that father will be proving that I am the older one."
"Okay, enough, both of you. You are twins, damn it!"
Metis used Zeus's neck to pull herself up. "Okay, you guys have an age difference of ten minutes. Artemis is older from what I know. That is why she is the goddess of childbirth too."
"Oh." Apollo shoulders drooped.
"But don't be too upset, Apollo. I doesn't really matter. You are hot enough after all."
"HEY! I thought I was the hot one here!"
Metis sighed and waved a hand through the Iris Meassge so that it disappeared.
"I told you so," Artemis said.
"Metis said it does not matter."
"Okay."
Meanwhile:
"I thought I was the hot one." Zeus pinned Metis's arms on the bed.
The said titaness rolled her eyes. "I never said you aren't hot."
Zeus grinned and claimed plundered another kiss. "It's been so long."
"Just don't impregnate me." Metis joked.
Zeus laughed. "We both know that Athena will be our first and last children together."
"Mhm..."
The King sighed and sucked on a spot under her ear.
Metis had to bite back a sigh. "Damn you."
The male responded by unbottoning her shirt. "Not now, Zeus..." And ignored her lover.
"What about Hera..."
"You worry much."
"I don't. Just don't make her too upset."
"She isn't. Trust me, I know. She would much rather me be with you than I go off with another woman."
"Mhm... tomorrow, I am going shopping with her."
"Where does that leave me?"
"With your brothers."
"Meany."
Metis stuck out her tongue.
"Very mature."
Hades, Demeter and Hera were drinking tea on the rooftop.
"Are you jealous, my dear sister?" Demeter smirked.
"No. Why would I be?" Hera was very honest.
"You are taking this situation better than most women would." Hades smirked at a memory. "Minthe was flirting with me and Persephone turned her into a plant."
Demeter glared at him. "You better not make my daughter upset!"
Hera sighed as Hades mocked surrendered. "Of course I am. Metis was the reason why I even became a queen. Besides, it is not like they would have any other children... although I wouldn't mind. My sons are disappointments." She paused. "Besides... I would much rather have them together than see Zeus with other women."
Demeter nodded in understanding. "I see. Even Aphrodite can't be jealous of her beauty."
"Duh. Metis is like a mother to her." Hades grumbled.
Demeter widened her eyes. "And she fights with Athena?"
Hera shrugged. "Everyone fights with everyone in the family fights with each other," Hera sighed. "With demigods, immortals, monsters, you name it."
"That's a dysfunctional family for you," Hades yawned and pulled a shade down.
With the Demigods:
"I'm bored," Nico complained.
"Truth or Dare," suggested Poseidon, who was chatting with Athena.
Athena grinned evily and walked over the microphone. "Attention, people in the house," Her voice echoed through the many speakers. "The demigods have suggested a game. If you want to play Truth or Dare with us, come to the main living room in ten minutes. You have 9 minutes and 58 seconds!"
*Ten Minutes Later*
"We will be going in a circle," Zeus said. "So that everyone has a turn. But you cannot choose a person if she or he have already went once per round. That's the rules. If you refuse to do a dare or answer a question, you have to remove an article of clothing. If you refuse to say the truth, then you have to..."
"Give a lap dance!" Aphrodite squealed.
"Okay?" Athena looked at her weirdly.
"Everyone swear on Styx that you will say the truth for this game." Ares declared.
Carisse frowned. "Put that means you get punished if-"
"The goddess of the River Styx, whose name is Styx happens to be a friend of mine. I'll make sure this is a friendly game." Metis assured the group.
Everyone nodded and made a circle.
"Who wants to go first?" asked Zeus.
"Me! Me! Me! Me!" Apollo exclaimed.
"Suit youself," said Artemis, shrugging.
"So... let's see who is my first victim... oh! Hera, truth or dare?"
"Truth." Hera said, holding her chin up, proudly.
"Are you jealous of Metis?"
"Nope!"
Many waited for the boom that never came.
"Dionysus, your turn," Metis sighed. "You must not choose Hera."
"Perry Jahnson, truth or dare?"
"I see no Perry," Poseidon growled.
"Fine, Perseus Jackson, truth or dare."
"Dare."
"I dare you to slap Athena."
And there goes his sweater.
Athena smiled smuggly.
"Truth or Dare, Athena," Hephaetsus leaned back on the couch.
"Dare."
Hephaetus glanced at Ares. "Smite Ares."
"HEY! Why do you hate me OUCH! so OUCH! much?! OUCH!"
The goddess of wisdom smirked and sat back down.
"Truth or Dare, Annabeth?" Aphrodite emphasized on dare.
"Dare..."
"How long have you gotten with Percy?"
"Second base..."
Aphrodite pouted.
"Most of us are at second base, mother," Piper said.
She sighed. "Should have realized."
"Truth or dare, punks?!" Ares roared.
"Ares, be nice and which one are you talking about?" Hera scolded.
"Sorry mom." He did not look very sorry. "Valdez."
"Dare." Leo did not want the god of war to think that he was a coward."
"Set a god on fire."
Leo chose Ares.
"Why you-"
"Shut it, Ares." Aphrodite sighed. "You asked him to do the dare, don't forget it."
Ares growled but said nothing.
Zeus looked around for the next victim, er... player.
"Ah... Poseidon, truth or dare?"
"Dare." The king of Seas automatically said after Zeus finished his question.
"I want-"
"Dare," Thalia corrected.
"Fine. I dare you to jump into a pot of boiling acid."
Poseidon gulped but got up slowly. Ten minutes later, he came back and did not look so good.
"It would be wise if we stop playing," said Metis softly. "We cannot continue this game no more. It'll be too dangerous."
"Agree?" asked Zeus, to which everyone responded by nodding.
