Annabeth whipped her head around. The whole wall behind them seemed to have been blown away.

"Oh shit." Annabeth muttered as she reached for her knife. She looked at Percy and he was now holding a pen. What was he going to do? Write the big scary monster to death?

"Annabeth. Run." He said. No way, Seaweed Brain. If anything is going to kill you, it'll be me. She thought as the monster came into view. It was huge and scaly. One of it's heads shot fire towards Annabeth. She dodged it easily. Percy had always had trouble with hydras, he ran into a few of them when he was a teenager and it never ended well. Percy uncapped riptide and got ready to lunge at the hydra. Annabeth was holding a celestial bronze dagger and was about to attack the hydra.

"I got this." Percy said. He didn't know what she was seeing, but couldn't have been pretty. Annabeth completely ignored him. She was about to lunge at the hydra, but Percy caught her arm before she even moved a foot closer to it.

"Do you even know what that is?" He asked her.

"Do you even know what that is?" She asked him. The hydra blew fire at her, but she dodged it again.

"You see through the mist?" Percy asked as Annabeth got out of his grasp and attacked the hydra from the side.

"Daughter of Athena."

"I'm a demigod too." Percy was just standing on the sidelines and occasionally dodging blasts of fire.

"THEN DON'T JUST STAND THERE! HELP ME!" Annabeth yelled as she stabbed at one of the hydra's heads. Percy ran towards it and tried not to cut off any of it's heads. Where were Nico and Grover when you needed them?

"Wait...you don't have an aunt Bessie, do you?" Percy accused.

"Can we talk about this later?" She asked as she stabbed the hydra's eye.

"Does she go by a different name, maybe Aphrodite?" He continued.

"Are we seriously talking about this right now?" After fighting for who knows how long, they were finally able to kill it. There was monster dust everywhere, the kitchen and the living room were both completely trashed. Annabeth grabbed a scorched rag from the counter and started wiping the monster slime off her knife. Percy put the cap back on riptide and put the pen in his pocket. He opened his mouth to say something, but Annabeth cut him off. "Don't think that just because you helped me fight a hydra that you're off the hook." Percy frowned.

"Well at least let me explain." He pleaded. Annabeth motioned for him to continue.

"I was walking into my room, completely intent on going to sleep. But Maria was there and she just started kissing me. I tried to pull away, I really did but my body just wasn't following directions. So then my male hormones just completely took over and I couldn't stop myself and that's about when you walked in. But I swear that's all that happened. We just kissed thats all. So please, please, please give me one last chance. I promise I won't screw it up." Percy was just about on his knees, begging for her forgiveness. Annabeth wanted to stay mad at him, she wanted him to feel the way he made her feel. As much as she wished she didn't she said, "Okay. One last chance."

"So who's your parent." She asked.

"Poseidon."

"That explains so much. I finally know why I hated your guts the first time I saw you! And my nickname for you still works." Annabeth said excitedly. Percy laughed.

"But you know you love me."

"Don't let it go to your head, Seaweed Brain."

"No promises, Wise Girl." Percy had finally come up with the perfect nickname.

"Wise Girl?" She asked.

"Yes. Your mom is Athena and you are the smartest person I know, the nickname fits." He explained. Annabeth seemed to be thinking about something, so Percy waited for her to speak.

"I'll tell you what, I'll be your Wise Girl if you'll be my Seaweed Brain. Deal?"

"Deal." They shook hands making it official.


The TV network wasn't too happy about the portion of the house that mysteriously got trashed. They decided that it wouldn't be the best idea to have Percy and the girls living in that house. The producer went to the house to talk to Percy.

"Hey Perce." Dave said as he walked through the door.

"We were thinking that since pretty much the whole first floor of this house is trashed," Percy blushed a little bit. What was he supposed to tell them? Well you see all the Greek myths are real and I happen to be an insanely powerful demigod that attracted a hydra to the house and made a really big mess. Oh and did I mention that it's more than likely to happen again. Yeah that doesn't sound crazy at all. "That we could do a couple of segments in Disney Land." Dave continued.

"Sounds great." Percy lied. He didn't even want to think about the kind of trouble he could get into at a theme park of that size.

Annabeth was sitting in what used to be the living room, amazingly the couch survived the hydra. She was reading her architecture book yet again. She hadn't slept at all the night before and probably wasn't going to sleep any time soon. She was just about to loose consciousness when a shrill voice came from behind her.

"Oh my god! What happened?" Great I get a wakeup call from the skank. Annabeth thought as she turned around.

Percy was able to get a nap in after he was finished packing his things. He woke up and went downstairs to see if the refrigerator was still intact. The fridge was completely destroyed, but what he saw was way better than food.
