Lexie: Sometimes I really hate car rides. Yep I'm still in the car starting the second chapter for this trip. And I just looked at the clock and I still have another FOUR HOURS. Ugh! I might even get a third chapter done. On the bright side my feet haven't fallen asleep!

Grounded: Chapter 6

"Sean wake up."

"Five more minutes Malcolm."

I rolled my eyes. "I'm not Malcolm. I'm your favorite sister! Now wake up!"

"Five more minutes Aasha."

Now I just glared at my older brother. Well, he had his chance. I thought, and shoved him off his bunk. When he landed he scrambled around for a few seconds before sitting upright to glare at me; I couldn't help the smirk that came to my face.

"What the Hades did you do that for!?"

"I tried to be nice, but then gave up and decided that just pushing you out of bed would be the best and fastest." I explained smirking, "Oh and let's not forget the funniest."

"Why couldn't you just let me sleep in!? That's the only benefit of all of this! No morning training equals extra sleep! I thought you were good at math!"

I rolled my eyes at his complaining. "First off, I did let you sleep in! Why do you think it's only you, me, and Annabeth in here? Secondly, I'm not good at math I am amazing at math. And finally, I got you up because we have some investigating to do."

"And she's modest too." He mumbled sarcastically while rolling his eyes, "Wait what investigating?"

"Gods you're slow in the morning, but I'm not much better; it took me nearly thirty minutes to just get out of bed and – What am I doing we're off topic. Investigation. Percy and Annabeth. Someone cursed them; we need to find out who."

"Oh that. Well where do we start? There are so many people who could have done it."

"Will you two shut up!" I looked over to see Annabeth sitting up with an annoyed look on her face. "I'm trying to take advantage of the one benefit of being grounded. Sleeping in." Sean gave me a look that said, See! She gets it! I sent him one in response that said, Not now!

"Well someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed." Sean joked, weather it was directed at me or Annabeth I have no idea.

"Annabeth just wondering, but have either you or Percy really pissed off someone recently?"

"There are too many to count." She replied while rubbing the sleep out of her eyes.

Sean appeared to have caught on to what I was doing and joined in. "Well more specifically anyone who could say curse you with a potion or something?"

"Well there's Drew because of the inner girly-girl thing, I'm on good terms with all the Hecate cabin kids, oh there's Hera of course, maybe the Stolls for yelling at them the other day when they pulled that spider prank on us at breakfast. Percy always has some god mad at him, one specifically being our mom. Oh yeah and moms pretty mad at me too. Why?"

"Oh no reason." She narrowed her eyes at us. "Oh look at the time we're going to be late for Ancient Greek! Come on Sean." I started walking towards the door pulling Sean by his wrist.

"But I still need to change! And I thought we were going to have Annabeth teach us that class." He said as soon as we got out of the cabin.

I was about to respond when we were both launch back into the room. "What the Hades?" I groaned. "I thought mom said we had two hours out of the cabin."

"She did." Sean groaned while rubbing his head.

"The why—" I was cut off.

"That was hilarious!"

"I know man! Why didn't we ever think of this before!?" I'd know those two voices anywhere.

"Stolls!"

"The one and only." Travis said appearing in door.

"Wait there are two of us so wouldn't it be the two and only?" Connor asked appearing next to his older brother.

"I dunno… Hey brainiacs what do you think?"

"Well—oh never mind! What do you two want?" I questioned.

"Rumor has it that you all got grounded." Connor answered.

"How did you know about that!?"

"Our two favorite little brainiacs told us." Travis replied smirking.

"Aasha and Devon are so going to get it later." I mumbled.

"So we decided to come see for ourselves, we got a little distracted by this force field though, but it was totally worth it seeing you two shot back in there." Connor finished.

"So that's what happened, wait then let us out!" Sean demanded.

"Ah-ah-ahh, we're going to need to get something for your passage." Travis said while Connor put his hand out.

"But—" Sean started to say but I cut him off.

"Sean will give you twenty bucks and five drachmas." I said, Sean looked at me in shock.

"We're going to need a little more than that." Connor said.

I sighed and thought for a second "Are you guys still collecting locks of girl's hair?"

"NO!" The both exclaimed, blushing furiously.

"I'll take the blush as a yes. What if I get you some of my hair and Annabeth's?"

"DEAL!" They both exclaimed.

"What!? No deal! I'm not giving them—" Sean started but shut up after I sent him a glare.

"Okay so here's the money and drachmas," I said handing it to them, "And I'll be right back with the hair. Hey Sean will you come help me?"

"Um, sure. Why?"

"I need you to pin down Annabeth."

"Oh dear gods." He said following me and leaving the snickering brothers behind.

After five minutes of wrestling Annabeth, Sean and I finally managed to pin her, and cut off a piece of her hair.

"Okay," I gasped, I was holding down Annabeth's shoulders, while Sean was holding down her legs and arms. "I'm going to go give this, "I held up Annabeth's piece of hair, "to the Stolls so they will let us out of here, while you stay down here and keep Annabeth from killing us." I didn't stay around to let him argue and ran off leaving him to the wrath of our sister.

"Oh you two are so dead!"

"Lexie!"

Lexie: I promise to have a new chapter up soon, I know this was mostly a filler chapter. Tell me what you think. Until next time!
