'The rules are simple.' Nicola said. 'Repeat after me. Right now.'
'Right now.' The newbies chorused.
'I swear by the Styx.'
'I swear by the Styx.'
'To answer my truths truthfully.'
'To answer my truths truthfully.'
'And die quickly.'
'Huh?' Percy asked.
'She meanth that thou shalt doeth thy dare without question. Eth.' Cecil said.
'We promise to do our dares without question.' Everyone said.
'Because protesting is allowed.' Nik said.
'Because protesting is allowed.'
'That's all.'
'That's all.'
A boom of thunder later.
'Rule number one—'
'No killing.' Nik said. 'Rule number two; for the sake of the minorities, no one is allowed to kiss anyone their in a relationship with.'
'Aw.' Everyone clamoured.
'So break up with them right now.' Nik ordered. 'You have twenty four seconds.'
'Percy; I'm breaking up with you.' Annabeth said.
'Frank; this isn't working out.' Hazel said.
'Jason; we need to talk.' Piper said.
When everyone had finished " breaking up" the game was called to order.
'As the official murderer,' Nik said. 'I elect that Percy Jackson goes first.'
'Jay; truth or dare?' Percy asked.
'Death wish.' Julia corrected.
'Surprise me.' Jason said.
'Fly to Thalia's tree and sing the chorus of I Believe I Can Fly to Peleus the dragon.'
'Cecil,' Nik called.
The boys went on their merry way.
Jason's P.O.V
I landed by my sister's tree.
'In a once. In a twice. In a thrice.' Cecil said.
'Do you always have to talk like that?' I asked.
'Yes, sire Grace.' Cecil said. 'Or the maiden of curiosity will haveth my head.'
'Literally?' I asked.
'The maiden of curiosity is quite cruel; whether she meanth to really doeth so or not.'
I cleared my throat and turned to Peleus.
He's a nice dragon, I thought as it stared at me with those creepy eyes.
'What brought me into this again?' I asked myself.

'Welcome back.' Nik said. 'You're next.'
I smiled. 'Truth or death wish?'
'You already know.' Nik said.
'I don't.' I said. 'You say it.'
'Death wish.' Nik said.
'I dare you to wear all your underwear over your pants and only answer to Wonder Woman for the rest of the game.'
Her eyes held fear and embarrassment; but her voice was brave. 'That all you got, Superman?'
'Once you come back, if you have to stand up, your hands should be on your hips.' I added.
'Pfft.' She did the pose as she walked into the bathroom.
Once she came out she was wearing a bra over her Camp Half-Blood hoodie she always wore and a thong over her shorts.
'Nice look, Wonder Woman.' I said, trying not to laugh.
'You're lucky I don't want us throwing this back a lot.' Nik seethed. 'Bad Boy Supreme?'
'Present.' Leo said.
'I dare you—'
'What if I want truth?' Leo asked.
'You're a bad guy.' Nik said. 'You'd never lose a chance to die.'
Leo nodded. 'You speak the truth, Wonder Woman.'
Nik rolled her eyes. 'I dare you to go to Demeter cabin and sing Guy On Fire. It's Girl On Fire with a twist.
'Oh. And with your hair on fire.' Nik said. 'Don't forget it.'
'Someone was going to dare that anyway.' Leo walked out.
