"So you're saying there's a whole conspiracy thing now?" Will asked.

A large group of demigods were sitting in the rec room of the Big House, with an IM hovering to one side. The Greeks were sitting around the Ping-Pong table (clockwise; Grover, Percy, Annabeth, Piper, Jason, Nico, Will, Rachel, Thalia, Leo, and Calypso, and their Roman friends in the IM were sitting in the Senate's large hall (Reyna, Frank, and Hazel). Magnus, Sam, and Alex had been invited to sit in as well and were sitting in the corner, where Nico often kept looking. A few more campers were also in the mix (but didn't really need to be named for this story). None, even Leo, looked very cheerful. (Chiron was busy greeting a few new campers)

"So just because I made some cool demigod-style cellphones we're in trouble. Great." Leo grumbled.

"Let's just go over what they've got and you can all decide for yourselves." Annabeth suggested. "Right, so apparantly a bunch of people went looking and found out that Percy, Grover, and I were mixed up with some kidnapping thing and they also noticed Percy was the guy that blew up the St. Louis Arch. Then they found out that Percy and Rachel knew each other and that a bunch of my family died in mysterious ways-Magnus was in the newspapers for dying by being blown up, his mom died by wolf attack in the heart of Boston, Uncle Randolph's whole family dead. And Alex is from the Fierro family, so that made headlines too, kind of. Hard not to ignore."

"Thanks."

"That wasn't a compliment. Not really, anyways. Anyways, a lot of us have skipepd classes and ran off for random periods of time-Percy during finals, Sam practically every other week, and so on. We all pretty much have only one parent, or none at all. That are alive, anyways. And, well, I guess they went through our social media pages and started seeing that we had all these group pics and normally people like us don't usually mix. Piper is Tristen McLean's daughter. Thalia and Jason, also Hollywood kids and both of you guys disappeared from view no less and then randomly appeared 14 years later. Reyna and Hylla disappeared from their home in Puerto Rico with little trace, Nico's got almost no records anywheres-though that's kind of fixed with Westover Hall but not really-Will's the son of a famous Texan singer, Leo's got a record, Hazel's not even on the map, not within the last 60 years anyways. Some old-timers actually recognized you, apparently they think the New Orleans "witch girl" went into hiding, had some kids, and you just look a lot like the Hazel they knew and you don't have records because of it." Annabeth addressed this to Hazel, who blushed and groaned before cussing in Latin.

"And so forth, I'm guessing." Jason frowned.

"Yep."

"And the conspiracy is..?"

"That we're in some secret organization or something. There's a lot of theories."

"The Mist will cover it, though, right?" Percy asked.

"Usually. But..." Thalia trailed off.

Reyna finished for her. "This is big, Percy. We could manipulate the Mist but it would be a large-scale thing and might not even be enough. It's all already out there."

"So what do we do?" Alex twirled her wire around, coming close to loping off Rachel's hair. Rachel glared at her, then turned back to face the others.

Frank frowned. "We could...clear up any traces?"

"Too much work and they already have the pieces of evidence, they just have to put it together." Will said. "I talked to my mom earlier, she said it's everywhere. Even if we manged to get all of it off people have copies, they'd have printed stuff out and filed it away just in case."

"Well that's not gonna work then. Anyone else got ideas?" Magnus asked.

"We play dumb and just say we met online and stuff?" Percy asked.

"I mean we could always confuse them more..." Alex said, a bit of an evil glint in her eye.

Annabeth and Reyna exchanged looks as Annabeth threw in a drachna to keep the call going.

Leo fiddled with a brass screwdriver. "I could hack the internet?"

"No. Remember what happened last time? With our YouTube channel? Which we need to do a video for, by the way." Rachel reminded him. "That's one of hte reasons-"

Jason shot up. "That's it!"

"What?" Percy asked.

"We do a series of videos explaining how we met...and we say the truth. But a white lie truth." Jason grinned.

"Explain." Will leaned in. "I want to hear details."

"Well, here's a rough draft..." Jason started talking. Soon, heads were bobbing, arrangements were made, and when Chiron came back an hour later the room had been vacanted save for Nico, Will, and Will's brother, Austin, who were filming something in the corner.
