Oh boy, here we go. The songs being used in the performance are from series belonging to Hannah Barbera, Hasbro, Warner Bros, Marvel, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, 4Kids, Disney, and other companies that would cause us to be here all day if I listed them all. This little bit is for the next six chapters. If I did not mention a company that you feel should have been mentioned, pleas say so in the corresponding chapter holding the theme of the series belonging to said company.

Just so you know, italics in quotes means the character is singing.

While everyone in both clubs got into costumes, Percy put a suit on. Since the performance was his idea, he had been chosen to the Host/Guide/Announcer for the whole thing. Rather than being a dark blue, like his Gala tux, this suit was a classic black. He peaked around the curtain as he fastened one of his cuffs. He spotted his family all together in the fifth row. He had promised the other members of both clubs that their families could take the front seats, as his was so large now.

The fifth row was compromised entirely of his family, with Poseidon and Zeus sitting, begrudgingly, beside each other and their respective queens on either side in order to stop the two from causing a scene. Percy spotted Anita playing with Marina. It made him happy to see his sisters getting along. He then saw Selene as she let out a big yawn. He didn't blame her. He had expected the show to be scheduled for the the afternoon, but it was changed to the morning at the last minute and he had to ask Artemis to rush to get the news to everyone. He was glad to see everyone here, even Triton, who sat at the end of the row, beside Tyson, ready to leave at any time.

"Listen up people," Andrea said, getting the attention of everyone backstage, "I know this little change in time is a little unnerving, but we can't let it affect the performance. Is everyone ready?"

"We are," Percy said, fastening the other cuff, "but you need to hurry up and do your hair. The Scooby-Doo franchise is being done in it's entirety after the Jetsons theme. So it won't be long before you're on."

Andrea returned to the dressing area to finish with the Daphne costume she was wearing.

"Ok." Percy looked over the groups, "Flintstones, Jetsons, places. We start in ten minutes."

Percy looked over everyone else and spotted Thalia dressed as Scarlett from G.I. Joe.

"Hey," he put his hand on his cousins shoulder, "thanks for the bringing the Hunters over to help. We had nowhere near enough people to fill up all the character slots. You girls are making this quite a bit less painful for us."

"You're just lucky I'm keeping an eye on you to make sure Zoe doesn't do anything." She responded.

"Thanks for that too."

Artemis sat next to Annabeth for the sole purpose of talking to her. She leaned over and spoke quietly so no one would overhear.

"So, do you know if you're pregnant yet?" She asked.

"It's too soon to know," Annabeth replied, "the soonest I'll know is next week."

"You would think that the privacy I gave you two would have let you got at it so fiercely that there wouldn't be a single chance of you not pregnant."

"I'll have you know that it was the first time for both of us, and he was already half asleep. So excuse me for not having godly stamina. But it was intense. It's like he's a completely different person when he isn't entirely awake."

"I'll keep that in mind for the honeymoon," Artemis smirked as the lights dimmed and Percy stepped onto the stage, "looks like it's time."

Percy stopped near the edge of the stage, close to the string players in the band club. The band club had apparently volunteered to play the tunes of the music in the performance so the glee club wouldn't have to strain their vocal chords by doing possibly a whole morning full of Acapella. Percy held a wireless microphone in his right hand. He turned it on and held it up to speak.

"Ladies and gentlemen," he began, "we in the drama club, the members of the glee club, the members of band, and the guests who have volunteered to help us, are very pleased to have you here to join us in this trip through the ages to revisit the songs that introduced is to the very families and friends that have influenced our childhoods, our teen years, and even beyond into adulthood. Please allow me to start this journey by reintroducing the family that, arguably, started it all." The curtains behind Percy separated as the stage was lit with colored lights, "then again, the only introduction they need is..."

The brass section played the iconic start of the tune as students dressed as characters from the Flintstones came onto the stage in a prop version of the Flintstones family vehicle.

"Yabba-Dabba-Do!" The boy dressed as Fred Flintstone called out before he and the others started singing over the cheers of the audience.

"Flintstones. Meet the Flintstones. They're the modern Stone Age family. From the town of Bedrock. They're a page right out of history. Let's drive with the family down the street through the courtesy of Fred's two feet. When you're with the Flintstones, you'll have a Yabba-Dabba-Do time, a Dabba-Do time. We'll have a gay old time!" The students waved as they fake drove across the stage and behind the curtain.

"Families received a lot of laughs from that family," Percy said over the audiences applause, "but the only question is, "Where could we possibly go after such a huge success in the Stone Age?" The answer? How about the future?" The band began playing the start of the Jetsons theme as the next set of students came onto the stage.

"Meet George Jetson," the boy dressed as George did a quick bit of interpretive dancing before striking a pose, "His boy Elroy," a young Hunter dressed as Elroy followed suit. Artemis noticed that she didn't want to be there, at least not dressed as a boy, "Daughter Judy," a girl dressed as Judy put more flair into her bit, "Jane, his wife." the last one put an insane bit of sass into hers. For the final portion of the song, they all did a synchronized dance before huddling close for a group pose on the final flourish. The Hunter looked like she wanted to throw up through her fake smile after being pressed so close to the boy. She seemed to leave the stage faster than the other three.

"Well, we each have our own opinion on who the better family is, but there's one thing we can all agree on. When it comes to solving mysteries, there's only one group we'd want on the case." The next group, dressed as the characters from Scooby-Doo, walked out onto the stage to the beginning of the theme. The boy dressed as Fred Jones began to sing the theme.

"Scooby-Dooby-Doo, where are you? We've got some work to do now. Scooby-Dooby-Doo, where are you? We need some help from you now. Come on Scooby-Doo, I see you, pretending you've got a sliver. But you're not fooling me, 'cause I can see the way you shake and shiver. You know we've got a mystery to solve, so Scooby-Doo, be ready for your act. Don't hold back! Oh Scooby-Doo, if you come through, you're gonna have yourself a Scooby Snack! That's a fact! Scooby-Dooby-Doo, here are you. You're ready and you're willing. 'Cause we can count on you, Scooby-Doo. I know we'll catch that villain."

"We're not done with those meddling kids yet," Percy said, "you wouldn't believe how far they've come along."

,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,..,.,..,.,.,.,..,.,..,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.

Nira had a hard time following the map of the school that Artemis made for her. She was completely lost. Asking for directions didn't help her one bit. If she didn't hurry, she would miss seeing Percy on the stage, which was the only reason she even came to the school. She was about to give up when, just barely, she heard music. She followed it, keeping at a brisk pace without breaking into a run. When she reached the point where the music was it's loudest, she spotted the demigod claimed by Iris at the Gala drinking from a disposable cup.

"Hey," Nira said, getting her attention, "it's Aurora, right?" She received a nod in response, "What are you doing out here?"

"No food or drinks allowed in the auditorium," she explained.

"Want some company?"

"You'd willingly miss a chance to see our mutual crush just to wait for me to finish a latte?" Aurora gave her an inquisitive smirk.

"It's called sportsmanship," Nora stated, "Lady Artemis told me that it's an important part of being in a harem."

"Well we're not in yet, are we?"

"Best to practice before we are."

The two giggled. They seemed to be the only ones who actually enjoyed being on the "Harem Waiting List" as they called it. At the Gala, the only thing they did together was guess who would back out of the waiting because they were impatient.

"By the way, did you hear?" Aurora asked.

"Hear what?"

"Annabeth took Percy's virginity Saturday night."

"Really?" Nira was awestruck, "I would have expected the Dragon to take it if not Lady Artemis. But, somehow I'm glad it was his first love to take it. It makes it all the more satisfying."

"Yep," Aurora threw her empty cup across the hall, getting it in the garbage bin, and stood up, "shall we?"

"We shall," Nora stood up with her and entered the auditorium.

They found their respective seats while trying to watch the performance.

"Nanananana. Nanananana. Nanananananana. Nanananana. Nanananana. What's new Scooby-Doo?" The students finished their performance as Percy stepped forward.

"All right! A final round of applause for Mystery Inc. everyone," Percy clapped as well as he could while holding a microphone along with the applause of the audience as the students go backstage, "next up, let's meet the organization trained to protect the world. If you're wondering which one, they have a certain catchphrase, as most animated teams do. So let's all give a big hearty "Yo Joe!"."

"Yo Joe!" Some members of the audience shout when Percy holds the microphone out.

"I can't hear you!" Percy called, "Come on! Louder!"

"Yo Joe!" More of the audience shouted.

"A little more! You can do it!"

"Yo Joe!" Nira joined the rest of the audience, only then noticing that Artemis was holding Selene up on her shoulders so Percy could see her shouting.

Nira was shocked to see Thalia and some other senior Hunters dressed in costumes among the students who marched on the stage as the music started. One student in military gear marched forward so he was ahead of everyone else and sang.

"He'll fight for freedom wherever there's trouble. G. I. Joe is there."

"G. I. Joe!" the boys in the line called.

"A real American Hero!" The girls called, "G.I. Joe is there."

"It's G.I. Joe against Cobra, the enemy, fighting to save the day. He never gives up, he's always there. fighting for freedom over land and air."

"G.I. Joe!"

"A real American Hero! G.I. Joe is there."

"G.I. Joe is the codename for America's daring, highly trained Special Missions Force," the student up front explained, "It's purpose, to defend human freedom against Cobra, a ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world. He never gives up. He'll stay 'til the fight's won. G.I. Joe will dare."

"G.I. Joe!"

"A real American Hero!"

"G.I. Joe!" They all sang together as the song ended.

"Woo! Now those are some top notch protectors," Percy cheered as the group marched backstage, "Now who could possibly be next? How about the literal Giants of Hasbro?" A drummer in the band started playing a rhythm, "I think you'll find that these guys are a little more memorable than the Joe's."

A guitar joined the drum as students in prop armor came on stage. The designs were unfamiliar to Nira, mainly because she had never watched TV in her life. A boy in red armor with a flame pattern on the chest and what looks like a car spoiler on his back stepped forward. He pulled out his own microphone as the guitar grew louder. He raised his microphone and began to sing.

"Transformers!" the others went into a dance routine that looked like a mock battle as the music swelled, "Something evil's watching over you. Coming from the sky above, and there's nothing you can do. Prepare to strike, there'll be no place to run, when you're caught within the grip of the evil Unicron! Transformers! More than meets the eye. Transformers! Robots in disguise! Strong enough to break the bravest heart. So we have to pull together, though we can't stay worlds apart. To stand divided, we will surely fall. Until our darkest hour, when the light will save us all! Transformers! More than meets the eye. Transformers! Robots in disguise. Transformers! Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the Decepticons! Transformers! Transform!" a guitarist plays a solo as the boy in red and blue armor and the in all grey armor engage in stage combat rather than mock combat, even Nira knew the difference. "It's judgement day and now we've made our stand. And now the powers of darkness have been driven from our land. The battle's over but the war has just begun. And this way it will remain, 'til the day when all are one! Transformers! Transformers! Transformers! Transformers! More than meets the eye! Transformers!" The boy in the red and blue armor struck the boy in grey armor down as the song ended.

"Another victory for the Autobots." Percy cheered as the students went backstage, "now, as we say farewell to the alien heroes, let's introduce our final guest for today. Now, whether you watched this show or not, I know that this theme is so iconic that you all must have heard it at least once. So if you feel inclined to sing along, go ahead. But before we start, I want to say that he won't be singing his own theme song. Instead, he's asked me to sing it for him so he can focus on showing his moves. So everyone, please bear with me."

The trumpets blared as a boy dressed as Spider-Man backflipped onto the stage. The audience cheered as the cello's joined in. Nira noticed Percy take a deep breath. She held her own, excited that she would get to hear Percy sing.

"Spider-Man, Spider-Man. Does whatever a spider can. Spins a web, any size, catches thieves, just like flies. Look out, here comes the Spider-Man. Is he strong? Listen bud. He's got radioactive blood. Can he swing, from a thread? Take a look, overhead. Hey there, there goes the Spider-Man. In the chill of night, at the scene of a crime. Like a streak of light, he arrives just in time. Spider-Man, Spider-Man, friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. Wealth and fame, he's ignored. Action is his reward. To him, life is a great big bang-up. Wherever there's a hang-up. You'll find the Spider-Man!" the boy in the Spider-Man costume jumped and performed an aerial tuck, landing next to Percy. He put his arm around Percy's shoulder and waved with him as he said, "Thank you for coming everyone. We hope to see you all again tomorrow."

The two backed up so they were behind the curtain when it closed. Nira joined the audience in applause. Now that she knew where the auditorium was, she wasn't going to miss the start of the other shows.

Whew, that took a lot out of me. One down, five to go.
