Hi. I'm back. Again. Sorry if the last chapter wasn't the best. I was writing it at two am this morning, so I wasn't at my best. Also, I might have trouble updating frequently because my life has been getting hectic recently.
Shur'tugal Daughter of Artemis: It's a good guess that Penny's a legacy of Apollo, but she's actually not. I'm really not sure how they're going to find out who she's a legacy of, though...
gallaghergirlathogwarts : I'm really not sure how old Penny is, though I have decided she will be somewhere around ten years old when Percy disappears.
Thanks to everyone who reviewed!

Penny wasn't sure when she fell asleep, but she was pretty sure she hadn't fallen asleep in her own bed.
When she woke up, Percy was sitting on the end of the bed, watching her. It was kind of creepy.
Then again, she had been doing the same thing to him last night.
He smirked at her and she glared at him.
"What are you doing in my room?" She asked him.
His response was immediate. "Waiting for you to wake up."
She wasn't quite sure how to respond to that. So instead she responded with another question.
"Are you feeling better this morning? You had a really high fever last night."
Nodded, and Penny noticed that he still looked rather tired, but not nearly as much as last night.
He grinned again. "Breakfast's on the table. It's bacon."
She sat bolt upright in bed. "Bacon?"
Percy smirked and stood up. "Race ya."
And so they did.
Penny won by a few seconds.
Percy, however, had enough control to grab the plate of bacon while she was still disorianted.
His only comment was, "I win."
Penny made a grab the bacon. She ended up with the plate. Whan she looked up, Percy was holding a fistful of bacon.
Now she was really wondering about him.
Sally walked in and sighed at their antics.
"Come on you two, share it." She said.
Percy gave her puppy-dog eyes.
All he got was a stern look.
Sighing, he handed Penny one slice of bacon.
She snatched it and made a grabbing motion with her hand, indicating for more.
He shook his head.
Sally walked over and took the bacon from Percy, splitting it evenly.
Penny stuck out her tongue and grinned cheekily.
Percy poked her with a slice of bacon.
And that was the start of the bacon wars.
The bacon wars, as the would later come to call it, was a bit like when you fight with straws or pencils, just with bacon, which made it a lot harder.
Once again, Percy did the seemingly impossible.
He disarmered her of her last slice of bacon, grabbed it, and popped it in his mouth, still with a full plate of bacon in front of him.
While he was chewing, Penny snatched his plate and stood up, walking slowly into the kitchen. Right before she went into the kitchen, Penny glanced over her shoulder. Percy was giving her a look like "What did I do?"
Penny laughed so hard she could barely breath.
When she caught her breath again, she noticed the plate was gone.
Then she looked at Percy. He was back at the table, smirking, eating the last slice of bacon.
Percy Jackson was one strange kid.
Yay! That was fun! I think I might put future battles of the bacon wars on other chapters. And add more people to it. Like they say, the more the merrier! I think I might make Percy win every time. With a different strategy each time. Hmm... I think I'm getting on to something.
Please review!
