Chapter 4 - Rule #68; While Sally Jackson Is Very Nice She IS NOT All Of Your Mothers! You CANNOT Go To Her House Whenever You Feel Like It!
Chiron shook his head. He couldn't find Katie Gardener, Will Solace, Lou Ellen, Cecil Markowitz, or Damien Marshall!
Where were his missing campers!? Oh, and Nico Di Angelo was missing too, but that was normal.
At about 1:30pm he got a phone call. "Yes, this is Mr. Brunner speaking."
"Chiron? Is that you?"
"Sally? Oh, hello, how are you?"
"Fine thanks. See, I don't really know how to say this, but… are by any chance missing 6 kids?"
Chiron froze. "Describe them please." He had to keep a growl from his voice, what the heck were those idiots doing!?
"Well on is a very polite young lady who just informed me that my azalea bushes need more water.
One boy hasn't left the shadow of my book shelf since he showed up.
While another boy seems to be… sunbathing? On my couch, by the bay window.
There's a girl waving what looks to be a purple stick at another boy screaming at her that she isn't being 'fair'.
I also cannot find the other boy who was here a minute ago, and I would say that I hallucinated him, but it's just that I think that he stole my wallet."
Chiron groaned and rubbed his face. "I'll be right there."
A few minutes later he was at the Jackson's apartment.
"Welcome, come right in." Chiron assumed that this nice man was Sally's husband.
"Thank you." Chiron glanced around and it confirmed his suspicions, or really, dreads.
"Cecil, get off the chandelier!
Katie, put down the plant!
Nico, Will, get over here now!
Damien, shut up!
Lou put that thing away before you take someone's eye out!" The half-bloods froze.
"C-chiron!" They all cried.
"Yes, now we are going home! Cecil, give that nice woman her wallet back! Say thank you, all of you!"
"Y-yes, Chiron… Thank you Mrs. Jackson, thank you Mr. Blofis."
"Of course, children." Sally smiled softly.
"I am so sorry about all of this."
"It's quite alright, demigods are very… unique, aren't they?" Paul struggled to find a wording that wouldn't be offensive.
"They're all idiots, just say it." Paul snorted at Chirons words.
"Well we have to go! 5 out of our 6 little adventurers are Camp Counselors, and have younger siblings to look after!"
As soon as they were all settled in the car Chiron got to berating the kids.
"Katie, Will, what were you thinking?! You two are more responsible than everyone else, what the heck!?"
"We needed a day off! Kayla and Miranda said that they'd cover for us!" Will defend.
"Aye yae yae." Chiron shook his head.
"Hey! I'm the only Italian here!" Nico cried.
"Technically you're Greek like the rest of us." Damien muttered softly, plucking the petals off of a flower that he had gotten from Zeus knows where.
"Hey, stop hurting that flower!" Katie screamed.
"It's already dead, idiot!" Lou rolled her eyes.
"SHUT IT!" Everyone did as their mentor said.
"You are all on kitchen duty tonight! Cecil, I'd say that I'd leave your punishment to your head counselors," Cecil perked up from where he had been pouting before.
"-but knowing your head counselors, I'm leaving your fate in the hands of Chris."
Cecil hit his head on the head rest and continued pouting. Chris was stupid, and no fun, he'd make him clean the whole Cabin 11!
As the car pulled back into camp Chiron took out his ever growing list. "Rule #68…" He whispered as his demigod students got out of the car, and ran off.
