Hello! I'm back, with a new chapter! I only have a couple of things to say to one thing before the chapter commences.

To Guest (unknown): Stella (not me) is not another Mary Sue. She is just a legacy who has been granted the powers of all gods, as will be revealed in the chapter. If you think Stella is a Mary Sue, then I'm sorry, but for your information, she's hardly going to be there; she will join the Hunters of Artemis, be the Lieutenant, in fact. And, no, there is going to be nothing bad happening, and no quest. And, please do tell me, how can a normal demigod or legacy snap her fingers and make the world alright, when the gods themselves can't do it? Hm?

Okay, I want to make some changes in the schedules.

Athena, Poseidon, Hades, Zeus and their kids (therefore, Stella, Ashley and Christina): Homeroom, English, Greek, Math, Science, Study Hall, Lunch, PE, Elective.

Hera, Artemis, Aphrodite, Hestia and Hephaestus: Homeroom, Greek, Math, Science, English, Study Hall, Lunch, PE, Elective.

Dionysus, Demeter, Ares, Hermes and Apollo: Homeroom, Greek, Science, English, Math, Study Hall, Lunch, PE, Elective.

Third Person's POV

The gods and demigods stared at Stella, who continued to smile serenely at them. At last, Artemis managed to take her jaw off the floor and said, 'How did you learn to fight like that? You defeated the whole army on your own!'

Stella said, 'Oh, well, I was taught that by my parents. My full name is actually Stella Diana Anderson.'

All the gods paled, and Athena spoke. 'Well, Stella, you might be surprised, but we are the gods and demigods. Percy, Annabeth, Thalia and Nico are the demigods, and the rest of us are the gods.'

To their astonishment, Stella looked only mildly surprised. 'I suspected it, you know. I doubted you as soon as I saw you. I wasn't granted your deduction powers for nothing, you know, Lady Athena.'

Stella bowed to Athena, who started. The demigods puzzled: the gods had not revealed their true selves to her, but yet, how did she know who they were?

Seeing the demigods' puzzled faces, she said, 'Well, I'm a legacy, of all gods (many demigods married into my family) and I am almost a mortal, 'cause my godly ancestors all date back to Ancient Greece. Apparently, the gods decided to enhance all my sleeping godly powers by gifting me a tiny bit of their powers. For example, I can breathe underwater, and I can manipulate the currents to swim faster when I am under, but not use it when I am outside. I also get wet underwater.'

The demigods made gestures of understanding. Artemis turned to Stella and said, 'My girl, would you like to join the Hunters of Artemis?'

Stella's face lit up with happiness. She kneeled in front of Artemis, and said, 'My Lady, it has always been my wish to become a Hunter. I would love to join you in Hunting. But first, please do tell me what all I shall be granted.'

Artemis smiled and said, 'You will be immortal, unless you fall in battle or let go of your Oath. I assume you know of the Oath? Well, you do, and as Thalia has left the Hunt, you shall be named my Lieutenant, as you are the oldest. Any questions?'

Stella had only one. 'I will be allowed to wear whatever I want, won't I?'

'Yes, yes you can wear whatever you want; I'm sure you don't want to give up the wardrobe you were gifted by Aphrodite/Angelina. Do you agree?'

Upon Stella's nod of consent, Artemis said, 'Then repeat after me: I pledge myself to the goddess Artemis.'

Stella repeated, 'I pledge myself to the goddess Artemis.'

'I turn my back on the company of men, accept eternal maidenhood and join the Hunt.'

Stella repeated the lines, and Artemis said, 'I accept you as my Lieutenant.'

Several changes were wrought. First, Stella glowed silver for a moment, then became normal again, except for a small silver shimmer around her. Her dress changed to silver, and her high heels did too. A small circlet on her hair glowed, and the circlet which marked her the Lieutenant of the Hunters appeared on her head. Her different jewels also adopted a silvery glow, though they were still turquoise, or in case of her anklet, diamond. She stood up, her eyes pulsating with raw power.

'I feel stronger,' she said, almost to herself.

'Welcome, sister,' Artemis smiled. Stella smiled back.

Annabeth broke in. 'Whoa, I want to ask a question. How do all your weapons appear, and how many do you have?' Stella seemed astound for a moment, then said, 'Oh, it was the gods here; when they granted me bits of their powers, they also gave me weapons. I even have a spear, but it only activates in major emergencies; like when all my other weapons get exhausted. It comes to my hand whenever I summon it. I actually own only one pair of clothes; like one top, jeans, one dress, one skirt, etcetera. Aphrodite granted that to me. I can ask for whatever I want to look like. But I'm not that lucky, you know. I have also got all the gods' fatal flaws. Do you know how unlucky that is?'

The demigods all looked horrified at the prospect.

'Oh well,' Stella sighed. 'Anyhow, I would like to introduce you to Ashley Liliana White, legacy of Poseidon, and Christina Carter Williams, daughter of Aphrodite.'

Ashley smiled at the surprised looks. 'My great-grandmother from my mother's side was a daughter of Poseidon; she died just before the pact was made. My mother told me about my heritage on my fourteenth birthday, and gave me this locket. It's been in my family for ages. The pendant becomes a sword and the chain, a shield.'

'As for me,' Christina said. 'I was also fourteen when I came to know my heritage. We were at Stella's place, getting ready for this prom thing Stella had invited us to; it was at her cousin's school. While we were getting dressed, this hellhound came in, and Ashley fought it, seeing as Stella was in her bathroom, doing her makeup. When she came out, I started glowing pink, and I wore this really beautiful pink dress and perfect makeup. I didn't even have to dress up. Then Dad came in (he was the one dropping us to the prom)and saw me glowing pink. He looked really sad; he could see through the Mist, and he told me what was going on. Apparently, Mom thought I'd be really powerful (as much as a daughter of Aphrodite can be), and she left me my watch and ring. My ring becomes a dagger, and my watch becomes a shield.'

The bell rang. Everyone started, realizing they were still in school.

'Oh man, I do not want to study more!' Hermes whined, Apollo following suit.

'Don't worry, we only have PE and Elective now,' Athena said, taking charge. 'Okay, let's decide which Electives we should go for.'

'Why don't we go for Drama? We gods have only one Elective in common with the demigods, which is Drama,' Aphrodite suggested, displaying a rare sense of intelligence. Everyone stared at her, but agreed to it at once. Then as one, the gods worked and put the cafeteria as it was before, and changed everything that had happened to different stuff by using the Mist. They all left, heading towards the locker rooms, to change for PE.

Stella: And the chapter's done. By the way, Merry Christmas!

Santa: Merry Christmas to you too, Stella!

Stella: Oh my gods! Why are you here Santa?

Santa: It's my job to look after the Christmas presents, and this chapter is a Christmas present to your fans!

Stella: Oh, yes, so it is. Anyhow, do enjoy your Christmas present, won't you, and tell me how it was. Till New Year! By the way, Santa, can you do the disclaimer and help me with my Christmas presents?

Santa: Of course, Stella, for both. Stella here does not own PJO (she will not repeat it now).

Stella: Bye for real, guys!
