Everyone was silent in the infirmary. Nobody moved. Percy was really hoping Chiron was going to laugh and shout "April fool's!". But there were two problems. One, it was July, and two, it was past twelve. The conch horn sounded in the distance. "Dinner," Annabeth said.
"You kids can go have dinner. I can take care of Piper."
Everyone nodded and left. Percy walked alongside each other. Percy looked over at her. She looked really beautiful in the sunset. Light bounced off her golden, spring hair and her eyebrows scrunched together as she stared at the ground, as if trying to calculate something. No, Percy thought. She has a boyfriend who is missing and she must love him so much to go everyday searching for him.
He returned his attention to the pavilion which was now only a few feet from them. It's posts rose mightily, towering over people as they entered. Percy was in awe. Although he had never understood architecture and angles and all those things, he knew a good building when he saw one. Annabeth grinned. "You know, I never told you, but I designed this." Percy looked at her, gaping, then the building, then her again. "Wow," Percy managed.
"Wow indeed. Well, I have to go to the Athenian table." Percy nodded and went to find his table. Some people were sitting on an overcrowded table, while Leo was sitting with people who had grade on an apron, and smelly like oil. Children of Vulc-Hephaestus. Hephaestus.
A girl who was on the overcrowded table beckoned him over. She had straight, midnight black hair, and sky blue eyes. Percy came and asked, "There are lots of spare tables over there, you know. Why don't you sit there?"
"I can't. Since we haven't been claimed we have to sit on this table. The table of Hermes. Travellers, thieves, cattle-herders, and dice-rolling. I am pretty sure those two-" she pointed at two identical brothers, "- have asked me for a date, in about thirteen different ways." Percy looked at the twins. They looked exactly the same, but one of them were taller than the other. They noticed Percy and grinned maniacally. The shorter one beckoned him over. "See you," Percy told the girl, before walking to the twins.
He sat between them. He knew these were children of Hermes. So he knew they were going to steal something. There was a lump in the taller one's pocket, so Percy slowly slipped it out, and replaced it with a stone from the ground. He looked at the two twins. "I am Travis, and that is Conner." Cover greeted himself and Percy smiled. "Well, Conner, if you're trying to steal my wallet, you're going to have to try harder." Conner scowled and muttered, "Dang it."
" But I can give you advice."
"But we're Hermes' kids! Nobody steals better than us." Travis said. Percy showed him the wallet. "But there just might be, Mr I-Stole-A-Driver's-License." Travis and Conner just gaped at the wallet. Percy walked back to the girl. "Mind if I join you?"
"Sure." The girl moved up a bit, then gestured for Percy to sit down. A plate and a cup appeared in front of him. "Think of anything you want to eat, it drink. It will come."
"Seriously?" The girl nodded. Percy thought of a cheeseburger. And Viola! A giant cheeseburger appeared. "Oh my gods." Percy thought, blue cheeseburger, and the bun colour changed. "Blue food?" The girl raised an eyebrow.
"I have no idea. What's your name anyway?" Percy asked.
"Lisa," she introduced. "Lisa Cach."
"Percy. Percy Jackson." Percy smiled. (A/N: There will be no Percisa
"So, you might need to know about the camp director. His name is Mr D. Which really is just short for Dionysus."
Bacchus, Percy thought.
"And listen to Annabeth. She always is right."
Percy and Lisa talked. Percy learned that Lisa's mother worked at a jewellery shop, so she had learned how to steal gold, metal, silver, bronze, plastic and stone objects from there. Percy told her that he couldn't remember anything. The sun soon set, and this obviously drunk man walked into the pavilion and said, "We have some new campers today. Please welcome Peter Johnson, Leon Valkyrie and Printer McCain." People rolled their eyes and clapped. "Now, off to the campfire." Children cheered and rushed off.
Lisa, after meeting Leo and Piper, took them to the campfire, a scowling Annabeth following them. Percy slowed down so Annabeth could catch up to him. "You okay?"
"I'm fine," Annabeth insisted. But Percy could see that she wasn't okay. Percy frowned. "Annabeth... please tell me what is wrong. I'm your friend, right?" Annabeth stopped and looked at the ground. "Yeah, I guess so... but I still won't tell you." Percy grinned. "Okay then, come on. We have to get to the campfire. Race you?"
"You're on." They rushed past Lisa, Leo and Piper, who looked at them as if they were Cray-Cray (Get the reference?). But they ran. Annabeth was in the lead, just half a meter away. Percy put on speed. He was now just behind Annabeth. He put his hands on Annabeth's shoulders and said, "Boo!"
Annabeth laughed and kept running but now Percy was right behind her. The campfire was in sight. Percy could win. All he had to do was flip Annabeth around. He grabbed her waist and turned her so now she was behind him. Annabeth shouted something about that being unfair, but Percy still ran. Annabeth was following him. She was glaring at him, but the smile told Percy that she wasn't actually mad.
"That was cheating." Annabeth stated.
"You're just jealous I won."
"Not."
"Too."
"Not."
"Too."
"Can we stop?"
"Okay." They sang songs and are marshmallows, along with the other campers. It was going great. But then it happened.
Ooooh. Wonder what's going on? You'll have to wait a bit longer. Obviously, I added a bit more Percabeth in this. So... question of the day; What is your favourite flavour of popcorn?See you later-Anaklusmos3000
