And I'm back. Lol. Of course, I update the most pointless story the most.
"I can literally set things on fire!"
Leo stared incredulously at his friends. "Flaming whirlwinds, blasts of flame that can melt your skin, and I'm immune to all of it myself!"
Frank shrugged, thoroughly unimpressed. "So? I can just dodge all that by transforming into a bird and flying away!"
Leo stared, his face the physical version of '-_-'. "Funny. Yes. The dolphin man beats the nuclear powerhouse."
Piper, who had been ignoring the conversation until now, spoke up from across the mess table. "Guys. You wouldn't be doing anything but grovel if was there. I'd just tell you to stop."
Frank laughed. "Come on Piper. It's cool, but even Leo's power beats…"
"Punch yourself in the face."
Frank's fist flashed, and suddenly he was leaning forward, groaning, "Point made. Ow."
Piper's grin was infectious, as the rest of the group started laughing before bringing their own powers into the game.
"That's impressive Pipes," said Jason. "But you'd have to finish the order before I dropped you off a hundred feet into the air… or electrocuted you."
Nico's dark smile creeped Leo out as the son of Hades intruded, "And even if you told me to kill myself, you think that would do much? Underworld…been there done that, right?"
Hazel seemed a little nervous. "Well, you guys could probably beat me in a fight…"
"Are you kidding?" Percy cut across her. "You're badass! Remember the Amazon warehouse. Seattle? You kicked ass!"
"There was a box of necklaces right next to me!" she argued. "And a supersonic horse!"
"So," Percy smiled. "He's your supersonic horse. I wouldn't want to fight you. Although…"
Percy turned to Jason and Piper. "Good luck beating me. Literally the earth-shaker. I can summon hurricanes and tsunamis at will."
"And when I charge it up, you're screwed!" Jason shouted back.
Percy stared. "Dude. The water never touches me. Bone dry. It has to touch me to get zapped. You just gave me an extra weapon. Not that I need it… the storms I can summon also create lightning."
Leo laughed. "Can we all agree Percy's a little OP?"
A short burst of laughter rippled across the table. But one person had remained silent throughout this entire exchange and hoped no one would notice her.
Annabeth sat there quietly eating her toast, hoping desperately that no one picked her. Unfortunately, Leo was Leo. Ugh.
"What about you Annabeth? What's your power?"
UGH. She could see his smirk! He was doing that deliberately. Suddenly, however, a plan formed. The smirk she showed instantly sobered Leo's attitude, and it was a look Percy recognised. Annabeth might not be supernatural, but his girlfriend was probably one of the most powerful here.
"I'm super smart. I could own your fire powers with brains."
Leo's smile returned, and he scoffed, "Yeah of course. How?"
Annabeth suddenly looked terrified. "Oh my god, what's that!" She thrust a hand, pointing behind Leo.
The son of Hephaestus whirled in his seat, panic flaring. Annabeth plucked an apple from the bowl on the table and lobbed it at him. As Leo turned, it caught him across the face, instantly marking a bruise across his cheek. As the table burst into raucous laughter, Annabeth muttered to herself, a wide grin,
"Like that Repair Boy."
Lol. Annabeth is actually super underrated. The Seven are morons!
