Nico had left before anyone woke up the next day. His siblings mentioned that he'd said something about "needing to go chew out the human flamethrower and slap him upside the head before Kelp Brains gets back to strangle me". But he'd managed to teach his siblings enough that soon, nno one felt safe going anywhere,for fear that the two children of Hades would pop out and jumpscare them, or start brining in McDonald's, or disappearing without a trace for weeks on end (Chiron was the one to mention this in private to some of the otther head counselors, remembering well how Nico had done the same thing several times and given several campers a fright, often sneaking up behind a new camper just for the sake of a laugh).
But for now, Cabin 13 was more then satisfied.
It was night 9, and it was the Hephaestus cabin's turn to pick. The head counselor pulled out from the bag a peice of paper with two name, "Rachel Dare" on it.
From her corner, Rachel spoke up. "May I tell this one, Chiron?"
The centaur nodded, and Rachel got up, walking out to where Chiron was. "Alright ,so it all started when I was visiting the Hoover Dam with my class. I went off to the bathrooms, and was on my way back to rejoin my clas when Percy Jackson came up, pretended his sword was a pen, slashed it through me for blowing my nose, then ran off while I had to make up a fib to save his butt."
The campers roraed with laughter. "Totally Percy." the head of the Poseidon cabin laughed.
"Then the next year, I went to Goode High for the freshman orientation and saw Percy again. We got a particularly annoying snake lady to blow up the band room, then I ended up going on a feild trip into the Labyrinth. With the boy I liked, with the girl he liked., who also really didn't like me much."
The Aphrodite kids swooned at the love triangle.
"So of course the means I'm a member of the "Used to Crush on Percy club, which by the way di Angelo is another member, not that he'll ever admit it again. Anyways, we survived, then the Battle of Manhattan happened, I at first tried to get Percy to come with me to my family's vacations I wouldn't be on my own, but Percy ended getting called to go blow up a cruise ship-yeah, the same quest that killed Charles Backendort, Silena was totally not happy when she found out-well, anyways, the Battle of Manhattan happened while I was away on vacation. I actually found out through a dream, then I heard it on the news and convinced my dad to let me come back to New York by agreeing to go to Clarion Ladies' Academy. So yeah. I pretty much crashed into the thick of the battle via hellicoptor." Rachel grinned. "Oh, and Annabeth and I made some amends, too. Which was probably a good thing."
Chiron shook his head. "I still think that was a very unwise decision to do what you did, Rachel.."
"Yeah, but Percy was influencing me." Laughs from the campers. "Anyways, we won the battle, I stole Blackjack, took a trip to Camp, and became the then survived through the Giant War, delivering the news of Percabeth in Tartarus to Reyna, and then survived Apollo becoming human and having to deal with Nero. And pretty much everything else, like meeting the Norse and the Egyptians and curses and goodness knows what." Rachel finished triumphantly, amidst cheers from the campers.
