A/N: *Warning: Hints of Uranus' jokes ahead.* READ AT OWN RISK!

~Sahara POV~

Our "quest" was literally about two hours long, it was pretty boring honestly, we just took a page out of Gaia's book and boom done. Like really is that all?

It was pretty boring.

And now boredom was killing us.

So we decided to go to the Land Where Bad Things Happened. Aka; The former camp grounds of Camp Jupiter. That's right. California.

We texted the rest of us. (ooh that sounds like a good book title; lemme write that down.) And that's how we got into this situation. We're always in bad situations but this took the crown of the worst situation ever. Ok you want the situation?

Fine.

This is how we got into the situation:

"Are they here yet?" Daniel groaned. "I just texted them." I responded back. We were waiting outside a Sta b s. Just the usual after all who doesn't love Sta b s! Actually I do. That's not important. We were just chatting like normal teens, not like there were any. Amy and Zack arrived later and met us at the Sta b s. Maybe when they teleported to us that the gods detected something was wrong. Who knows. Whatever the case, Apollo, Ares, Athena and Hermes came down and started looking at us, probably wondering how we were the kids causing "trouble". "I'm surprised, don't they know that their kids are on our side?" I murmured to them. "Who knows? They're gods they'll accept the outcome either way. They'll just be a bit pissed that we took over the world. They won't assume anything's wrong 'till we make it very clear we aren't on their side." Zack said, coldly. We never knew why he hated the gods so much but we knew that it was a very sensitive subject for him. We laughed and pretended he said a joke. Out of the corner of my eyes I spotted Hermes and Athena coming towards us. I didn't even need to tell anyone that they were coming because we could feel it. Hermes made the first move and said "Hi." "Hello Lord Mercury," I said, using his Roman form to throw him off. It did indeed work because Hermes -now Mercury- looked a bit surprised and astounded that we "were Romans" "What brings you here? I would be surprised if you and Minerva just came here for Starbucks." "Why aren't you at Camp Olympia?" Minerva said. "Well some of us did not want to go to Camp Half-Blood so we left, Lady Minerva." Zack said. Minerva nodded "One more thing, have you detected any surges of power in the last few hours?" "No, but than again San Francisco is right next to Mount Tam(A/N: Is that correct?),maybe you just detected that." Amy said airily. Minerva And Mercury went back to Apollo and Ares—who was still in his Greek form.— they talked about something and than went to search the rest of the city, I assumed. "I'm surprised, I thought that they would drag us to Camp Olympia or at least ask us to help them search for it." Daniel whispered to us. "You might just jinx us." Zack warned. We talked and acted like everything was normal but we all knew that they were going to come back. And so they did. And they were quite mad.

"You lied to us." Athena said, coldly.

"I don't know what you mean." Amy said.

"And yet, you still lie to our faces." Hermes said.

And so we were back to back each facing a different god. I was facing Ares the dumbest brute of them all. Ares was the first to charge. I snapped my fingers and the dirt rushed up at Ares turning him into a dirt statue. I pointed at him and the dirt solidified into stone, making him quite a nice statue.

Amy had Athena in chains, Hermes was in quicksand and Apollo, well Apollo was gone. We didn't have any clue where we went but probably for—

"Reinforcements." Zack said. "Let's go, I am not wasting my time fighting reinforcements." I said. We vanished and reappeared in The Court Of The Sky.

We told Ouranos what happened and he scowled, "They came? Be more careful, besides you can not walk around like your usual selves they will be on the lookout for you anywhere around the world."

We nodded respectfully. "Yes, Lord Ouranos." Amy said, cheekily. "And stop doing that! There is no need to call me lord!" Ouranos grumbled. Amy smirked, and we went towards my room. "I don't wanna be cooped up all day!" I complained.

"Than we out." Zack said. "But where!" I grumbled. "Well, Ouranos does have his pseudo planet." Daniel pointed out. "You mean you want to go to Uranus!" I half-shouted half-whispered.

"Of course!" Amy said. "One small problem," I said. Everyone turned and looked at me. "We've never been there." "No problem." Amy said dismissively, "There's a portal to Uranus."

"And where the heck did you find a portal to Uranus?" Zack stage-whispered. "Your anus." Amy snickered. Zack looked like he was a second away from stabbing Amy, and I knew from experience it hurt, a lot.

"Guys, don't kill each other, not right now," Daniel said. "Let's just go to —"Your anus." Amy said again snickering.— Daniel just shook his head and said, "Well lead the way, Amy. You know where the portal is." Amy nodded and we got up.

Amy lead us through two walls, ten hallways, through another wall and into a room with swirling portals in every single colour imaginable. Sky blue, vibrant purple, I-can't-believe-it's-not-cloud-white-white, blood-red, maroon, poop—

"Wait—what?" I said, looking at the portal, sure enough it was as brown as poop could be. "Oh dear gods, why—just why." I said, "Let's...Let's just not go towards that." Zack decided. Even so, Daniel had to drag me away from it.

"Are we gonna have to portal hop through them? Like Minecraft: Story Mode?" I asked. "You play Minecraft: Story Mode?" Daniel asked me. "Yes, of course I do! Whoever doesn't is a disgrace to this nation!" I exclaimed.

"Ok, enough geeking about, we have a portal to find." Zack said. "Y'know how did you even find this place?" I asked Amy. "That's...actually a good question how did you even find this place?" Daniel asked Amy, "Well, I explore, don't you?" We shook our heads. "After we get back we will have an expedition of searching this place, I only searched through like a very small quarter of The Court Of The Sky." Amy said.

"But, which one goes to Uranus, it's not exactly like they have signs on them." "No, The your anus portal has a sign on it." Amy responded. I noticed that she emphasized on the your anus part. I looked at one of the portals and noticed that the portal part was white, and it was surrounded by what looked like some glowing stone.

I frowned and kept the portal in mind and noticed that we had stopped shortly after the glowing portal. It was the colour that people said Uranus was like. It was even more pronounced as there was a sideways hoop perfectly surrounding the portal. Sure enough there was also a sign that said "Uranus."

"This is it!" Amy said proudly, before jumping into the portal. I stepped into the portal and immediately my surroundings changed into a beautiful scenery. There was a beautiful blue sky and everything was blue; the trees had brilliant blue leaves and the bark on the tree was lapis lazuli blue. The ground was dark blue and the water instead of being the normal blue that it would be in Earth, was gold.

Probably because Ouranos' body parts were thrown into the ocean I thought.

Daniel and Zack appeared behind us and soaked up the scenery. "Wow..." I murmured. I turned around and saw a huge mansion identical to The Court Of The Sky, there was a sign next to it that said The Court Of Uranus. "D'you think Ouranos has mansions in all of the portals?" I asked. "What do you..." Daniel said, turning around to see the mansion.

"Maybe..." Zack said. "Seriously when we get the chance we have to explore all of the portals, even if they seem endless." I said. None of them argued with me. We walked for a while and it turned out that there was a city in walking distance. We walked and talked (accidental rhyme!) about nothing in particular; and just enjoyed ourselves.

There was a road if you could call it that; it was only a grass path, really. Plenty of people were walking just like us and they weren't aliens or anything. They were normal people just like you and I, they didn't seem to be going anywhere in particular. Some people also vanished at a certain point but we just shrugged it off.

Eventually someone noticed our confused looks and explained: "Y'see at that point it's a teleportation pad, you just imagine where you wanna go and you get teleported there, quite handy as you can imagine."

We nodded, and the man left.

As we walked towards the city gates there were a few guards but none of them with armour only swords. "What would happen if someone decided to attack?" I asked one of the guardsmen. "Oh, that's not possible y'see, the founder of this planet; Ouranos, experimented with humans trynna figure out why most of us started wars for our beliefs and changed us so we could never lie, be brave, have smarts ('ta not start wars fa stupid reasons.) and ta prefer peace over war. And of course to never do evil deeds, ya see? Perfect match. Since he created the first humans we have never had any war." The guardsman told us, before he continued to stare at the people approaching.

We went out of earshot of the guard and Zack murmured, "Wow, no war, ever." "Sounds like the perfect planet." Amy said. "It also explains why everyone's so nice." I pointed out.

"I like it." Daniel said. We nodded in agreement and kept walking before I suddenly frowned. "What's wrong?" Zack asked me. I shrugged and we walked up the street admiring the tower in the distance. It sort of looked like an isosceles pyramid and some god decided to put a huge cheerio on it. I frowned again. It was pretty familiar, weirdly familiar in-fact.

Zack noticed this and repeated "What's wrong?" "I don't..." And than it clicked in. The Cheerio Tower, why everything was so familiar, it couldn't be...could it? I ran towards a citizen ignoring my friends bewildered stares, and asked her, she gave me the city— no my cities name — and I nodded. "What is it?" Daniel asked me.

"..."

"What?"

"This is my home..."

"Oh."

"Which is?"

"Toronto."

No one really knew how to react so we went to an A&W and got some food. Eventually Amy said, "So you have a home here?" I nodded. "Why don't you like it?" I didn't respond. "Well, at least you can show us some awesome places in the city." Amy said optimistically.

That's Amy for you, always looking on the bright side.

We settled back into our usual groove and talked about the little things, no one talked about how Toronto was my home which was nice. "Is there anywhere nice to walk with a beach nearby?" Zack asked. I nodded and took them to Lakeshore. (There gods, they don't have any exhaustion so that's why they can do that.) "This is awesome!" Zack whooped running into the lake, Amy laughed and took after him, Daniel and I smiled and than ran into the lake as well, laughing.
