I dunno if you noticed, but I deleted some stories. I deleted the fight between Percy and Jason since it wasn't my favorite story in the first place, and other people didn't like it either (although I explained why Jason was OOC like a bunch of times). And I deleted What If because I kinda lost motivation in the end, though I might rewrite the ending and reupload it. This is kinda late, but I wrote a oneshot called English. It's about Calypso learning the new language and stuff.

One last update on stories and stuff. I'd like it if you read this. I'm writing some fanfics for fun or something, but I didn't upload them yet. Here's what I'm writing. I just want to know which one you guys will like to see first (please just like review or PM me, it'd be a big help). Here's a (somewhat) basic idea of each of them.

1. The really cliche Chaos story- I'm most likely NOT going to upload this to FanFiction since there's so many of these and people just pass by it, and I don't wanna get any more hate from it. I might show people who want to see it, but unless a lot people want to see it (which I doubt 100%), I'm not uploading it (though I'm probably going to keep on writing it).

2. Pirate AU- Annabeth is the captain of one of the strongest pirates at sea, and Percy's the son of a king, but lives the life of a peasant. While spending time with his family, they run into Annabeth's ship, and get attacked. I kinda like it, though I'm not sure if you guys will.

3. PJO at Goode- This is kind of the back story and the continuation of my oneshot, Valentine's Day. But I don't like the idea of Goode just being a regular high school and people just crushing on each other and stuff. There's no real plot then, and it gets boring quickly, which led onto a different Goode down below.

4. A Different Goode- Goode is a boarding school for troubled children. Percy gets into a fight with his stepfather, Gabe, and sends him off to Goode, ruining his plans with his mom. He's convinced that he's not troubled, but he seems to blend in there easily.

VioletFan123- Percy has a special talent for receiving self-teleporting pens. 'nuff said.

PercyJacksontheChicken- LOL. That made me laugh a lot. XD One common characteristic with Percy!

Deaf Angel- His pens disappear into a whole new world where everyone are pens.


"I said hello to the poodle."

-The Lightning Thief


Annabeth had woken up the first—a habit since she was seven traveling with Luke and Thalia since they had to move quickly.

But she woke up a bit later today. It was about what, a bit past seven? She was a bit wiped out on her first quest.

"No, I can't be like that," she chided. "You should be thrilled. And if you can't handle this one, you won't be able to handle anything else."

Grover mumbled, "Foood," in his sleep and rolled on his stomach.

Percy, on the other hand, was drooling as usual. Boys.

…not that he was ugly. In fact, she was kind of guilty for crushing on the son of her mom's rival. Annabeth tore her eyes away from him and sighed.

"Annabeth?" Grover said, and rubbed his eyes. "You say something?"

"No," she said. "I'll go make some breakfast at Aunty Em's. You can go on, like a walk or something."

"Sounds good," Grover said. "But who's gonna watch Percy?"

She rolled my eyes. "They're not going to attack a drooling kid. It won't be long."

Grover walked along the trees and she jogged to Aunty Em's and made my way into the kitchen. She opened the refrigerator, and a nasty smell flew forth.

"Ew!" Annabeth yelled waving the smell away.

But other than whatever was making that smell, everything else seemed pretty fresh. She got out some eggs and butter and milk, and found some flour in the cabinet. She wasn't the best at cooking, but she learned from Luke and Thalia whenever they got access to a kitchen (they usually broke in, but whatever).

She started mixing and poured the batter onto a pan. She made three stacks of pancakes, the big one for one of the boys, a smaller one for her and the other boy.

She balanced the plates on her hands somehow and made her way back to the camp site.

Grover was already there… with a pink poodle.

"Hey Grover, I made some pancakes," she said setting them down. She took out some of the maple syrup in the small packets and threw them on the ground. "Who's that?"

"This is Gladiola," Grover said. "Gladiola, Annabeth."

Gladiola barked.

"Um, well," Annabeth said awkwardly.

"Say hi," Grover hissed.

"Sorry?" Annabeth said.

"Say hi," he repeated. "Seriously."

It slightly hurt her pride to say hello to a doll-looking poodle, but she said hi anyway, as it seemed like the smartest choice to do.

Gladiola barked, and Grover said, "Gladiola says hi back."

"Well… thanks?"

Grover looked at the pancakes with wide eyes. "Are those pancakes?"

"Yeah, it was there for quite a while now."

He opened the maple syrup packet and poured it over the bigger stack. Annabeth handed him a fork and he tore through the pancakes.

"These are really good," he said with his mouth full.

Before she knew it, he ate all the pancakes—including hers and Percy's share.

"Man, I'm full," he said.

"You should be," Annabeth said. "I'd be worried if you weren't. Looks like I'll have to get something for Percy." She glanced over. He was still sleeping and was talking softly in his sleep. "I'll get something for you too, Gladiola."

She ran back to Aunty Em's and scoured the cabinets for some food. She found some salad which didn't seem like anything they would eat. She found some moldy cookies, some dog treats for Gladiola (apparently Medusa had some pet customers too, and it made Annabeth a bit sad), and some nacho flavored chips. She looked in the fridge once more and grabbed an apple for herself.

"Here you go, Gladiola," Annabeth said giving him the treats.

Gladiola sniffed them tentatively and ate them quickly. Annabeth suppressed her smile.

She couldn't wait to see Percy's face when he had to say hello to the poodle.
