Chapter 2: The Party
It was the morning before the party and Percy di Angelo was freaking out.
"Oh gods! I forgot to invite the Cages! Malcolm is gonna kick my ass! And the Masons! There isn't enough room at our place! We have no food or drinks or entertainment! Oh gods, what am I gonna do?" Percy panicked.
Luckily, he had a Nico to calm him down.
"Shh, it's okay, bello. You'll see Malcolm today for the meeting. Invite him. I'll IM Will and invite them. We can host the party at Persephone Park. It is just around the corner. We don't need food, drinks, or entertainment. But if it bothers you so much, I can shadow-travel to a store, or send Donny. Calm down, love. It'll be fine. Don't worry." Nico soothed.
He kissed his husband, who melted into it. Percy's breathing gradually got slower. He calmed down and rested his forehead against Nico's
"Thanks, Nick. I'm glad to have you here to calm me down." The Sea Prince murmured softly.
"No problem, Perce. I'm always there for you," whispered the son of Hades. "You better get ready for the meeting. It's almost time, love."
Percy glanced at the clock. "Oh gods! It's almost time to go!" he yelped and rushed upstairs to change. Nico chuckled softly. How was he so lucky again?
"Hi dad," yawned Donny and hugged his father. "Need some help?" The teenager gestured to breakfast. The Italian smiled and nodded. One thing he shared with Donny was their love for cooking. And his son was a great cook. The boy smiled softly and started flipping the food. He was a sweet boy, always trying to make things easier for his parents.
Percy ran downstairs to give his husband a quick kiss and ruffled Donny's hair before he bolted outside.
"Hey," greeted Thess as he walked downstairs. "Is it time to eat yet?"
Nico chuckled. Thess was more into baking with their mother, and didn't really like to cook.
"No," said his brother and rolled his eyes. "It'll be ready in like thirty minutes."
The water-bender groaned and sat at the table, relishing being with his big brother and father.

"Hey Malcolm," says Percy as he walks into the coffee shop.
"Hi," Malcolm responds in a short, clipped tone. Percy frowned. So the blonde must've heard about the party. Why else would he be acting like this?
"I have something to ask you," starts the water-bender. The younger man grunts in reply.
"Do you wanna come over to my house later tonight? We're having a reunion."
"Yes," says Malcolm. "If you hadn't of asked, Miranda and Katie would've kicked your ass. So would I."
"Well then it's a good think I asked," grins Percy. The blonde nodded in agreement and sipped his coffee. They started talking about the kids and the dojo.
/Line Break\
"Will Mason," says Nico, and throws the coin into the fountain. The rainbow seemed to shake it's head in warning before showing him Will. Oh gods! Nico didn't need to see that!
"Put on some pants. No one wants to see that," he grunted.
"Nico!" yelped Will, and ran over to get some sweatpants. Jake covered up himself with the sheets hurriedly.
"Dude, nobody wants to see you two doing the naughty," the Italian informed them.
"Well maybe you should give us a warning next time!" Will practically shouted in his face.
"Whatever. I was just calling to tell you to come over to my house tonight. We're having a reunion. Bring your children," invites Nico.
"Okay, we'll be there," responds Jake. "Now leave."
"Kay. Resume whatever you were doing," said the son of Hades, and made a face. He swiped through the rainbow.
"Donny," he calls. "I have an errand for you to run."
/Line Break\
Sam grinned into the mirror as he got ready. He couldn't wait to see everyone again! Especially Sander. Since Trend and Derek have been spending a lot of time with him, the son of Ares had no time to spend with his trickster!
The blonde beside him smiled softly at the boy. He's never seen Sam smile so much until a few weeks ago. Him and Derek must really make Sam happy. So does his friends. Ever since Leroy...
Trend shook his head and frowned. He promised he was never gonna think about the little bastard again. Derek took care of him.
Said person wrapped his arms around Sam's waist. He looked at the boy behind him expectantly. Trend chuckled and stepped up to his two lovers. His huge arms intertwined with them. Sam sighed in happiness. They just stood there for a while.

Percy smiled at his husband, amazed at how calm and amazing Nico was. Instead of panicking, the demigod had taken charge. He invited all the missing people, set up Persephone Park, and even sent Donny out to get food and drinks! The son of Hades always knew what to do and was always there for him.
"Anything else, mio bello?" whispered Nico and hugged Percy from behind. Percy turned around to place his arms on Nico's shoulders. He started into dark brown eyes.
"Yeah," responded the Sea Prince. "I have to IM one more person."
"Who?" Nico's curiosity piped up, and the taller man stared at Percy. The green eyed boy smiled slyly.
"You'll see," he replied. Percy started to walk out of the room, adding an extra sway to his hips. His husband's eyes stared at the ass swaying slowly. Tartarus eyes darkened in lust.
"Little tease," the man growled once the son of Poseidon was out of the room. He wondered who Percy was going to IM.
/Line Break\
If Nico knew who Percy was calling, the taller man would've never let the son of Poseidon do it. Percy smiled a little guilty. He hated going behind his husband's back, but the Ghost Prince would never allow Percy to go through with this.
"Octavian Simmons," he told the rainbow softly. It started to shimmer, than revealed a grumpy blonde. His daughter, Sedanur was visiting. Her face broke out into a grin.
"Uncle Percy!" she waved enthusiastically. Octavian smirked at the Greek.
"If it isn't Percy di Angelo. Is the Hades brat not keeping you occupied? Are you bored, because I can show you a good time," leered the Roman.
"Well if it isn't the human equivalent to Arion," muttered the raven haired demigod. "I was just wondering if you had any plans tonight?"
The other man frowned thoughtfully before shaking his head. "Danny and I have nothing going on. We were just gonna have dinner with each other and catch up. Why?"
"Well if you don't have anything important, both of you are invited to the reunion tonight."
"Your husband won't like it," drawled the blonde.
"I don't dictate my life by what my husband likes and doesn't like," came the unimpressed answer. "They influence it, but this is my decision. I'm inviting you, Tavy. Like it or not, you're apart of my family. Because all of my friends are considered family, and I consider you a friend."
Octavian would never admit it, but he liked it when Percy said he was family. The Roman never had a loving family because his family is crazy and lived all the way in Britain. The blond got a warm, fuzzy feeling in the pit of his stomach when the other demigod said he considered Octavian a friend. But he would deny it if you asked him.
"Are you sure?" Octavian asked. "I'm sure your husband won't like it."
"What did I tell you before?" sighed Percy, exasperated. "Tavy, get your ass down here tonight, or I will drag it from New Rome to my house. Do you want me to do that?"
"No," snickered the Roman as he thought of the images. "But can I have your ass tonight?" The Sea Prince blushed.
"Perv," he muttered and swiped through the connection.

Donny grinned at the people trickling into the party. Dad had been a genius to bring it to Persephone Park. What were they thinking, trying to fit this many people into their house!?
The half-Italian looked around for his boyfriend. Where was he?
The boy found Sander by the food. He was talking with Sam, Herc, Trend, Marshall, and Derek. Having bro time, Donny guessed. He silently walked over there.
"Buonasera, mio eroe," whispered Donny in the brunette's ear. Sander closed his eyes. The older boy turned around and laid a passionate kiss on soft lips.
"Ew! PDA!" stated Sam and wiggled his nose. Trend chuckled and kissed his forehead. Derek wrapped Sam into a hug from behind. The son of Ares yelped and started wriggling around.
"Sweetheart, if you keep wriggling around like that, I'm gonna have a small problem," the boy said softly to Sam. The brunette turned to face Derek, his eyes wide.
"And I don't want to leave this party to ravish you, no matter how tempting that is," grinned the son of Demeter will wickedly. Hercules heard this and grunted, making a face. He left in favor to go talk to Thea and her friends.
Sander and Donny were still kissing, and it was turning heated. Marshall shook his head, amused.
"If you guys keep that up, Mr. di Angelo will behead you, Sander," informed the dark skinned boy. Sander's eyes grew wide, and he turned to look at Nico. The Italian was glaring daggers at him. If looks could kill, the trickster would be dead any second now. Then Sander's eyes widened even further. Uncle Nico's looks probably could kill! The legacy buried his head into Donny's shoulder.
"Your dad is going to kill me," he whimpered. The younger boy grinned.
"My dad would never do that in front of all these people," he said.
"That's reassuring," muttered Sander.
Trend was laughing at him. Ah, poor Sander. Going to suffer blue balls till he's married. It wasn't going to be long though. They were all ready engaged. Heck, Donny and his mother have already started planning the wedding!
His eyes shifted to his two lovers. The son of Athena knew they were the ones he wanted to spend the rest of his life with. Derek and Sam would call him cheesy, but the boy wasn't playing around. He wanted to marry them. He wanted the full package too. The proposal, the engagement, the wedding, the honeymoon, and the children. Yes, Trend knew he could produce children. He hoped the other boys knew too. Trend wanted to come home from work to see his lovers and his children. The blonde wanted to see Eli and Cornelia. But first, he would have to propose to both of them.
"What ya thinking up there, blondie?" teased Derek. Trend smiled softly at both of them.
"You two," he replied. Each of them had a big grin going on.
"You already have us here, Khan," said Sam. "Enjoy it."
I will, Trend thought. And I will for the rest of my life.

"Let's go to your room," whispered Kitty into Sally Persephone's ear. The witch bit the earlobe. The legacy of Hades moaned softly.
"Not right now," she said with difficulty. "Later tonight. My mom and dad worked hard for this reunion, and I want to enjoy it. Even though it is very tempting to go with your idea."
Kitty groaned and started pouting. Looks like she wouldn't be getting any right now. She walked over to get a glass of punch, then walked to her girlfriend, who was by the table, talking to other people. Kitty slumped into her seat, still pouting.
Percy leaned down to her. "If you're good tonight, you'll get a treat," she said and motioned to her body. "But if you're gonna be all pouty, then no treat for you."
Her girlfriend's face lit up. "Let's have some fun," she said with renewed energy. Percy chuckled and went back to her previous conversation.

"Ciao, mio amare," said a dark voice behind him. Luke jumped and glared at the di Angelo behind him.
"I thought I told you to stop doing that," he murmured before scooping Thess into a hug and giving him a long kiss. The other boy practically melted into the blonde's chest.
"Do I strike you as someone who follows the rules?" smirked the water-bender before capturing his boyfriend's lips again. Luke bit Thess' bottem lip. The raven haired boy growled slightly before he opened his mouth. Their tongues danced.
Suddenly, Luke felt a hand clasp his shoulder. The blonde turned, annoyed at the person for interrupting him and Thess, before he got a glimpse of the the person.
"Lucas," Nico's voice was quiet. "Please come with me."
Luke's eyes were wide. He glanced at Thess for help. The boy glared at his dad and took Luke's free hand.
"I told you before, you can't threaten my boyfriend," stated the half-Italian, annoyed. His father glanced at his son for a moment before shaking his head.
"Theseus Paul," warned Nico. "I am going to talk to your boyfriend about certain things."
Thess stared at him, unmoving.
Nico sighed. "I won't cause any bodily harm to Luke." The younger boy was reassured, but still reluctant to leave his dad alone with Luke. He knew his dad always kept a promise, but he could do many that isn't harming Luke.
"If he's not back in five minutes, I'm coming to look for you," warned Thess before walking away slowly. Nico's grip on the blonde's shoulder was like steel. The man led him to a more secluded area with a bench.
"Sit down," said the son of Hades. It wasn't a question, more like an order. The legacy of Aphrodite quickly sat, his hands fidgeting. Luke charted down the possible escape routes in his head.
"I better not see you doing anything with my son other then holding hands," said Nico firmly. "If you hurt him, I'll send you you to the Fields of Punishment and punish you myself. Is that clear?"
Luke nodded weakly and gulped. His mouth and throat were very dry.
"Thess has the ability to fall pregnant. You're aware of that right?" Again the blonde nodded.
"If you two ever have sex, which you better not, do it protected. Percy will explain the full length of the powers. I came here to tell you to treat Thess very well. My children deserve the best. Are you the best, Lucas?"
Luke grew a little angry. He would never do anything to hurt Thess. He may not be the best, but he'd damn well try.
"I will never hurt Thess. I may not be the best, but I'll try for Thess," stated the blonde firmly. Nico nodded his head in approval for the boy. He knew Lucas was a good boy for Thess. He just wanted to make himself clear.
"Good," says the son of Hades. He claps Luke's other shoulder. "Now go find Thess."

Silly frowned at the forms of Jimmy and Basty. The stupid magician took her Jimmy again! She walked up to the pair, remembering the promise she made. She grabbed Andy Cage's hand and pulled him over there.
"Hi Jimmy," she smiled brightly. "Hello Basty," she nodded in a greeting. Basty's face grew confused, then disbelieving. Silly said hi to him?
"Hi, schwester," replied Jimmy.
"Hello, Silly," Basty said reluctantly. Silly gives him a polite smile. She looks prettier when she does that, noted the brunette. It was certainly better than being yelled at.
"Hi," says the blonde behind them. "Just pretend I'm not here." Silly grins at her best friend and pulls him by her.
The girl turns to Basty slowly. "I'm sorry I yelled at you today," she said very reluctantly. Her mama said to apologise though. "I just don't like it when Jimmy gets hurt, and whenever you two do something like a prank, Jimmy gets hurt."
"Believe me, I don't like it when Jimmy gets hurt either," muttered the witch. "I dunno how he does it, he just does. I'll try to stop it next time."
Silly gives him a bigger smile for that. "I'd like that. I'm sorry I yell at you all the time. Jimmy is prone to get hurt whenever you're around, but I know it's not your fault." Basty smiles at her.
"Ah yes. I'll try to keep him out of trouble though!"
/Line Break\
Jimmy stares at two of his favorite people engaging in small talk. He turns to Andy.
"Am I missing something here," he asked and gestures to Silly and Basty. The child genius frowned.
"They're just talking," he states. Jimmy shook his head.
"That's the thing! They're not yelling at each other at all. They're even having a normal conversation."
The other boy nodded. "I admit, that is a little weird." Jimmy frowned. He was happy that they were getting along now, but they weren't including him! A weird feeling he had never felt before bubbled in his stomach. He had never felt that because he always had Basty or Silly there. But those two were over there, excluding him. The raven haired boy started to get upset.
"I'm gonna go find mommy," he mumbled and took off into the crowd. The blonde boy stared after him, a little confused. What just happened?
"Where is Jimmy?" asked Silly as she walked back toward Andy. Andy shrugged.
"I dunno. He just said he's gonna go find his mom." The other two exchanged a glance.
"I'll look over here while you look over there," said the girl, pointing in one direction.
Andy watched the other two children, a little lost again. Not until years later would he realize the Jimmy was jealous of Silly and Basty.

Hayden Hood peeked out from behind a tree. He looked around for two children, and was satisfied when he found none. The boy yelped as he felt a hand on his arm.
"Found you," said Hunter, giddy. The younger boy groaned.
"Did you find Jacky yet?" His twin shook his head.
"I saw him go into the forest," said Hayden. "Do you think he could be hurt?" Hunter's eyes widened.
"He isn't allowed to go in there! It's dangerous! We need to find him," says the older boy. He stole his sword from the car. A demigod should always have a weapon with him. Hayden had a dagger attached to his waist. The boy unseathed the weapon and let Hunter take the lead.
Hunter took small quiet steps into the woods, both of his hands on his sword. They needed to find Jack.
"Jacky?" Hayden whispered when they heard a noise. In return, they got a whimper. Hunter turned toward the sound and started advancing. Another whimper could be heard and soft sobbing.
Jack was in a clearing in the woods. He had a huge gash on his ankle from slipping down a steep hill. The boy had twigs and leaves in his hair. His clothes were all ruffled.
"Jacky!" said Hayden and started running over there to check the water-bender. Hunter followed him, but his eyes were glued on the trees. Something didn't feel right. He held the sword tighter. Haydn had dropped the dagger in favor of looking at Jack's wounds.
"Hunt, Heist?" the boy asked. The younger twin silenced the boy softly, looking at Hunter. The older boy was alert. He was peering around into the trees, his entire body rigid. A soft growl could be heard from the woods.
A beast emerged from the woods. It was half man, half bull. It had a huge stature and dangerous looking horns. It was a lot bigger than the three boys. It fixed it's stare on Hunter, it's beady red eyes looked menacing. Then it let out a terrifying roar. The monster advanced slowly, growling.
/Line Break\
Nico glared at the blonde that was talking to his husband. Of course, Percy had to have a big heart and invite him. Nico was having such a good time, until he came.
Octavian had arrived a little bit late with Danny. Since then, he had been talking to Percy non-stop. The Italian pouted.
Suddenly, an ear splitting roar could be heard from the woods. The tables started shaking. Everyone started muttering to each other. A monster? Nico stood up suddenly. There couldn't be! The wards were up! Did they stop at the woods? Where was everyone.
"Everyone!" yelled the man. "Gather up your family and make sure nobody is missing. We don't know what that is. Make sure everyone is safe." Everyone started nodding in agreement.
Nico rushed over to Percy. Jimmy was by him. The boy's eyes widened. He started wriggling in his mother's grip.
"Silly," cried the boy. He knew Basty was safe, Jimmy could see the Ellens. The Sea Princess ran up to them. She grabbed Jimmy's other hand to make sure he didn't run off. Donny appeared from shadow-traveling with Thess and Sally Persephone. Where was Jack though.
Everyone else seemed fine. Except the Stolls were running around frantically.
"Have you seen Hunter and Hayden!?" asked Connor, his eyes wide.
"No! Have you seen Jack?" Both men shook their head no. Nico glanced at his husband. Percy was mother henning the children, but spared the son of Hades a glance. Where is Jack, his eyes said.
A rise of screaming came from a part of the woods. It sounded like children. Jack and the Hoods! Donny's eyes widened. Jack was out there with the monster. Everyone started running where the screams where coming from.
/Line Break\
Hunter stared at the Minotaur. The other two boys had started yelling for help. He needed to protect them. The older boy grabbed Hayden's dagger and threw it the way he had been taught. It was off aim though. The weapon stuck to a tree. The beast started charging Hunter.
"Hunt!" sobbed Jack. The boy was terrified. Hayden's eyes widened. Hunter hasn't been training for long! There was no way he could beat this thing.
The Minotaur stopped running abruptly. The monster looked down. A sword tip poked from the stomach, and the beast wailed before exploding into dust. Donny di Angelo stood there, breathing heavily. He was covered in golden dust.
The boy had shadow-traveled to Jack just in time. Hunter was about to be mauled. The rest of the party had arrived a few minutes later. They were all relieved no one was injured too bad, and everyone praised Donny for the save.
The di Angelo family decided to call it a night, claiming everyone, especially Jack, was tired. They had gone to bed, Percy taking Jackson to his bed. It was going to be like that for a while. But Jack didn't mind. He just couldn't wait to see his Hoods again.
Author's Note: Last chapter! On the Jimmy line break, Jimmy was jealous. He didn't like that they excluded him and he felt left out and lonely. Sally Persephone's chapter was a bit short cuz i don't really know how to portray her. I adore the Hoods. I'm thinking about doing that Minotaur scene again, but Jack and the Hoods are older. Well, I loved writing this story and if you have any ideas, tell me in the reviews. Tell me what you like, think, and what I can fix. See ya.
