Hey everyone! Okay, in this chapter Rachel appears to be jealous of Annabeth which, I know, doesn't happen in the end of the books. So, I'm pretending that she slowly got jealous after the war, and asked Percy out. However, he was already in a half relationship with Annabeth (Which would become more real after Annabeth finds out that Rachel asked Percy out) so he said no. Now Rachel is a ball of pure, red, jealousy. Yay…

So What (Rachel)?

Rachel sat backstage, her legs crossed and her back straight. Her forehead was sweaty, and she couldn't help but twiddle her thumbs as the camper before her wrapped up his version of Grenade.
She groaned. She was next.
She pushed her red bangs out of her face and fanned herself with her lyric sheet. Apollo had now taken the microphone and was congratulating his son on a good performance. He was now announcing Rachel and she knew she had to go onstage any minute. She breathed in through her nose and out through her mouth a couple of times before walking onstage.

"And here she is, everybody!" Apollo called patting Rachel on the back. "We're ready when you are, dear!"

Rachel gulped and walked up to the microphone, her eyes spinning wildly in their sockets. Her palms were sweaty and she thought the microphone would slip out of her hands. All of the lyrics she had practiced over and over again seemed to have escaped from her brain and exited through her ears. She took a few more deep breaths, trying not to stare at the crowd. She reminded herself that in this song she was supposed to sound angry. She put on a frown and made her eyebrows all mad looking. Yeah, this was alright, She could do this. The song began to play and she sang along, slightly more confident than before.

So What?
By Rachel Dare

"I almost had a boyfriend
I don't know where he went.
I'm gonna deny it happened,
Forget all the time I spent.

I've a got a brand new attitude,
And I'm gonna prove it tonight.
I'm gonna be a Half-Blood,
I'm gonna learn to fight.

Na na na na na na na
I wanna learn to fight.
Na na na na na na na
I'm gonna learn to fight!"

As she screamed the lyric the curtains opened up to reveal a single sword and shield lying on the ground. People whispered to each other: What is she doing?

"So,
So what? Now I'm the Oracle.
And you were horrible,
And I don't need you!

And guess what!
I'm having a good time
And you're not on my mind.
I'm gonna fight you tonight!

It's alright.
You'll be fine
I'm not a pro so

So what?
I'm still the Oracle.
You still are horrible.
And I don't want you tonight.

Unh Check my flow Uohhh"

She walked over to the sword and shield on the ground and picked them up. People laughed as she stuck the microphone through the top of her shirt so she could hold the armor and shield at the same time.

"Last night I got my own sword,
And armor and shield as well.
(Yeah!)
I tried to lift the blade up
And I nearly fell.
(skatá!)

I practiced for a few hours
And learned a thing or two."

She swung the sword back and forth 'practicing.'

"So when it's time for us to fight
You won't know what to do.

Na na na na na na na
You won't know what to do.
Na na na na na na na
Percy I'm coming for you!"

She took a running start before jumping off the stage. She felt a burst of energy go through her. This wasn't scary, it was fun! And she was going to show everyone how she felt. She sang the chorus, swinging wildly at demigods as she made her way to one bench in the back.

"So,
So what? Now I'm the Oracle.
And you were horrible.
And I don't need you!

And guess what!
I'm having real fun
And you'd better run.
I'm gonna hurt you tonight!

Not alright.
You will die!
I'm not too bad so

So what?
I'm still the Oracle.
You still are horrible.
And I will fight you tonight."

She finally made it to Percy and stood in front of him, her eyes crazy.

"I was always there
You never were
You wanted her but that's not fair"

She motioned to Annabeth.

"I saved your life
Hair brush and all
You'd let me die, you'd let me fall."

She suddenly grabbed him by the arm and pulled him after her. Ignoring the infuriated look on Annabeth's face, she yanked Percy onstage and told the crowd to sing the first part of the chorus.

"So,
So what? Now I'm the Oracle.
And you were horrible.
And I don't need you!"

Rachel began swinging her sword at Percy, and belting out the lyrics to the song at the same time.

"And guess what!
Babe, you're done for
Your battle skills are poor.
I'm gonna hurt you tonight!

Not alright.
You will die!
I'm really good

So,
So what?
I'm still the Oracle.
You still are horrible.
And I will fight you tonight!"

Percy tried to run away but Rachel just kept grabbing him and pulling him back, pretending to stab him. He was screaming in fear that was almost completely real and the crowd was laughing harder than ever. Rachel smiled as she continued beating Percy up.

Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, I will kill you tonight

I was always there!

But I don't need you tonight.
Not alright!
You will die!
You're such a fool!

So,
So what.
Now I'm the Oracle.
Your girlfriend's horrible.
And I just killed you tonight!"

She tied up the song by pushing Percy on the ground and stabbing the ground right behind him, making it look to the audience like she actually had stabbed him, and Percy froze.

(Wooohooooooo!)

"Ba ha ha ha ha ha pffftt"

Rachel raised her arms in victory, sticking her tongue out to Annabeth. The audience clapped loudly and Annabeth looked as if she wanted to murder Rachel. Rachel, however, being Rachel, just ignored her and turned to Apollo.

"That was beautifully done, dear. Beautifully." He pretended to wipe a tear from his eye as Rachel thanked him and jumped off the stage. Apollo turned around and stared at Percy who was lying on the stage, still pretending to be dead.
"Percy," began Apollo, "You were a champ, man. A real champ." He helped him up and gave him a high five.
"Alright campers, tomorrow, the first person to perform will be…"
While Apollo called out names from his hat, Rachel walked over to the benches where her friends were still laughing.
"Dude!" yelled Clarisse, "You rocked it!"
Rachel just smirked and sat down next to an angry looking Annabeth.
"What'd you think?" Rachel asked her, a big smile on her face.
Annabeth just ignored her and stared off into space.
"Come on, Annabeth, you have to have thought something." Rachel insisted scooting closer.
Annabeth let out an angry growl before scooting away. Percy came up to them now, pretending to limp.
"Jeez, Rachel, I never knew you were so fierce!"
Rachel laughed and they hugged.
This only made Annabeth even more inclined to kill her.
"But," said Rachel, turning back to Annabeth, "Annabeth is refusing to tell me what she thought of my song." Rachel pouted and turned back to Percy. Percy sat down next to Annabeth and slung his arm around her.
"Come on, babe, what'd you think?"
Annabeth ignored him.
"Come on, Annie." said Rachel, smiling, knowing she hated it when people called her that.
Annabeth suddenly whirled around towards Rachel, grabbed her by the shirt and held her up so that she was looking her in the eye.
"You want to know what I thought of it, Dare? You want to know what I-"
"Annabeth Chase!"
Annabeth suddenly dropped Rachel. Did Apollo just call my name? She wondered. Sure enough, people were pushing her back, trying to get her onstage. Well, she thought, I guess I'll be able to get back at Rachel, now huh? She turned back around to where Rachel was brushing herself off. Annabeth flashed her a smile and a wave before skipping along up the steps to the stage.

Wow, Rachel's mean, huh? I know she's a little ooc, sorry! Anywho, I was trying to come up with some ideas for Annabeth to sing, but I just couldn't come up with something perfect. What do you guys want her to sing? I was think Britney Spears but I'm not sure how I can turn any of her songs into 'I'm going to kill you, Rachel!' We shall see…
