A/N Ugh, I hate the title. I just kind of modified the old 'Cheater, Cheater, Pumpkin Eater.' If you have any suggestions, please tell me. This is an AU Thuke, so I hope you like it. Have you noticed that I hate Percabeth? That's one of the only things I haven't written yet. That, and Rachael/Apollo. I do have a One-Shot idea for them though. But I digress. Hope you like it!
Disclaimer: This goes for the whole story, by the way. I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympians or its characters.
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
The trio stood in a triangle, representing their element perfectly – Sky, Sea and Underworld.
The Sky laughed a malicious laugh, something the Sea and the Underworld hoped they would never have to hear again.
"You never could beat me, Kelp Head," The Sky grinned.
The Sea smirked in return. "There's a first time for everything, right?"
The Sky smirked at the Underworld next. "And you; I was always stronger than you, Death Breath. Both of you, really."
The Underworld rolled its eyes, and then spoke in unison with the Sea, "Prove it, Pinecone Face."
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
"Is that what you want, Thalia?" Luke sneered. "To go back to the Olympians in triumph? To please your dad?"
They stared each other for what seemed like an eternity. To the others, it seemed like the situation was just that; a staring contest. To Luke and Thalia, however, it was a secret conversation. The kind that only the two demigods could have with each other. Even Annabeth didn't know. No one around noticed the signs: A slight nod, a quirk of the eyebrow, a series of coded blinks. In the end, they agreed.
Luke made what appeared to be a desperate grab for the spear, and Thalia kicked in response. Some might say involuntarily, but the two knew it was completely by her own will.
"No!" They heard Annabeth scream, but right now it was just the two of them that mattered.
Luke put on a façade of terror, and let himself fall.
Everyone rushed to the edge, and most saw the lifeless, motionless body of the traitor Luke Castellan. Thalia was the only one to notice the twitch of the finger, the slight curl of a grin, the miniscule movements that signified that it was on.
OoOoOoOoOoOoO
A/N Gasp! What are they doing? Oh, well of course I know! I know it's short, but this is just the prologue. And yes, I did bring that scene straight from The Titan's Curse, but I changed most of the words. Anyway, I especially loved writing the beginning. It's a scene from the future, and will probably come up in the fic later. I love personifying the cousins as the elements! And if you couldn't figure out who it was in the beginning, Pinecone face should've given it away.
Peace, Love, and Pokémon-
