chapter 3
We met the gods outside a tall (well, duh) building in Times Square. Our taxis showed up just about 2 minutes apart; so as we (Annabeth, Percy, Clarisse, Connor and Travis Stoll and I) all attempted to move the revolving glass doors, a stretch hummer pulled up on the curb.
Out first came Percy's Dad, Poseidon. All 5 of us shrank out of the way as he put a muscular tan hand on the door, and slowly set it moving. He turned around and winked at us. I could have sworn I smelled and heard waves crashing on a beach.
Next came Zeus, my father. He was wearing a charcoal gray business suit, with his silvery white hair pulled back into a ponytail at the base of his neck. He also made to move the revolving door, but as he passed me, he rested a hand on my shoulder. I smiled, I could feel a little shock going through me as if my father had just scooted his feet across a carpet.
Without thinking, I followed Zeus into the building. I could see Percy's nervous head ahead of me, occasionally glancing back. I smiled reassuringly at him.
The snapping of Poseidon's flip flops and the clicking of various heels across the gold floor were the only sounds in the echoing lobby. Well, that and the disapproving huffs coming from an annoyed Hera behind me. I could feel my back tense up, and I blushed self-consciously.
Zeus cut ahead of Poseidon and swiftly made his way to the front desk, and I took my place next to Percy. "Olympic party. Room 600." He said in a commanding (and somewhat terrifying) voice that echoed around the extravagant room. The guy, he couldn't have been a man for very long, quaked in his oversized uniform. Eyes wide, he grabbed a card from under the desk and, with a shaky hand, gave it to Zeus.

I'll skip all the boring and long details. So the elevator ride was a bitch, for lack of a better word. All the gods were really tense, so in a short span of time, Poseidon turned the emergency fire sprinklers on twice, father managed to turn off all the lights in the elevator, Demeter made little thorn bushes melt out of the wood (which gave Travis some pretty interestingly colored welts on his arm), and don't even get me started on Aphrodite. I'm still amazed that we could all fit in the elevator, and get out alive to boot.
When the doors pinged open, all us demigods sighed in relief. It looked like we were top floor, and the only room on the floor too. Athena seemed to have snatched the keycard from Zeus, so she and Annabeth strode into the room, followed by Aphrodite, Ares, Percy and his Dad, the Stoll brothers and their father (Travis rubbing at his arms selfconciously) and then came me, my father, and the rest of the gods who left Olympus.
The room was built much like a conference room. There was a long, mahogany table set closer to the window, and a lot of space between that and the opposite wall, where camera crews from various news stations were beginning to set up. Most of the men and women setting up looked at us in horror. I guess someone filled them in. maybe this wasn't such a good idea…
A man with black-and-silver speckled hair turned to us. I recognized him as the news anchor for the local evening news. He didn't seem that scared. He held out a hand to my father. "Mr…Zeus, is it? Wonderful, simply wonderful to make your acquaintance! Simply amazing, isn't it? We mortals, as I guess you call it, not knowing, eh? Not knowing for the longest time at all. Amazing. What a scoop!" I didn't realize how obnoxious this guy was, but it didn't seem to bother Dad. He didn't get as pissed as I thought he would, at least. "yes yes, wonderful. Well, when your done with setting up," he motioned to the newspeople, who all cringed (at the same time! Their mothers must be so proud), "we can begin."
"Of course! Now, why don't all of you have a seat and I'll get these men and women back here to close their mouths and get to work! Heh heh."
k there it is~! sorry once again for its shortnesss!

Athena goddess of wisdom: good point, i never really went into that. She was sorta the first god that popped into my head (that made sense) so i just put her down. do you have any suggestions? i was thinking about it, and maybe its an Ares & Aphrodite joint project, she provided the sparkles and the yummy smell and such, he provided the speed, strength and bloodthirstyness? thanks so much for the feedback!
