I decided to update now. Hopefully I can try to update daily, but I am really sorry if I can't get to the computer for a long time.

Thalia placed Nico gently on her bed, and turned to Percy. A small smile tugged at her lips, even though she was confused about everything. Little kids could just do that to you.

Percy studied her seriously. Then he hugged her again.

"You're going to take care of me, and Nico." He told her.

"I guess that's right." She told him. "We should probably tell Chiron. I'll go ask him to set up a meeting."

"Who's Chiron?" Percy asked.

"A centaur." Thalia answered. She picked up Nico and rewrapped his blanket around him. She held out her hand to Percy. He took it firmly.

"What's a center?" Percy questioned.

"Half horse, half man." Thalia shut the door to the cabin.

"Oh. Half hearse half man because he's Chrone and he has half and he's hearse. La la la la la." Percy broke off his nonsense talk to begin singing loudly.

Thalia winced. "Percy, please stop. There's no one around right now because its lunch, but we're going to get some looks."

"Lunch?" Percy yelled. "I'm hungry."

"Yes, we're going to lunch." Thalia started patiently, but it was starting to wear out.

"No, let's go to dinner." Percy decided. "Yes dinner. Dinner, dinner, dinner! La la la la la la la la."

Thalia gritted her teeth and glanced at Nico, who was slumbering away peacefully.

As soon as they were in sight of the pavilion, the campers immediately shut up to see this hilarious sight, Thalia Grace, lieutenant of Lady Artemis, huntress, holding a baby, and the hand of a very loud little boy. She could feel the amusement building even in her own huntresses. She could tell Artemis had already told the entire camp about it. Or maybe Chiron had.

Keeping her head high, she walked over steadily to Chiron. Percy was silent, clutching her hand. As soon as she stopped walking, he let go and grabbed her leg.

"Ah, Thalia, we have heard of the test. I am assuming this is Nico and Percy… is-" Chiron broke off.

"Percy is right here." Thalia looked down to see an empty area where Percy had been standing.

"Oh, great. Five minutes in and I've lost him already. Percy? Percy!" There was no answer.

Thalia groaned. "PERSEUS JACKSON! YOU COME HERE RIGHT NOW!"

"I don't want to." A small voice sounded from the Athena table.

Everyone turned to see Percy standing underneath it. He disappeared and grabbed Annabeth. Slowly, using her as a support, he pulled himself onto the table.

"What's your name?" He chattered excitedly. "I'm Percy Jackson. My real name is Perseus, but don't call me that because I don't like it. That's my cousin, Thalia Grace. Do you know her? She told me we get to have lunch, but I want dinner, so we're getting dinner. Right, Thalia? Nico is my other cousin. He is small. So small! But I'm bigger. I'm three. La la la la la la la!"

"No, not the singing!" Thalia moaned. She rushed over to the Athena table and grabbed Percy, who immediately began screaming. "No! No! I want to stay with Annabeth!" He yelled. He gripped onto Annabeth's shirt.

Thalia stopped pulling. "She told you her name was Annabeth?"

"No, I didn't." Annabeth said suddenly. "Percy, how did you know my name was Annabeth?"

Percy suddenly felt shy with every eye on him. He buried his face in Annabeth's shirt and didn't answer.

"How did you know?" Annabeth asked gently, pulling him away from her.

He shrugged. "Annabeth Chase. You were here when you were seven, which is older than me. I'm three. Nico is one and a half. He is small. So small!"

"How do you know that?" Annabeth inquired.

Percy looked scared. "Thalia!" He yelled.

"What?" Thalia grouched.

"Carry me." He begged.

"I can't. I'm holding Nico." She pointed out.

Nico at that point woke up. He burst into tears.

"Shush." Thalia bounced him up and down and rubbed his back.

"Carry me!" Percy screeched. Tears began to pour down from his eyes.

Thalia handed Nico to a frantic Phoebe, who rushed to help, and picked up Percy. He quieted down.

"I like Annabeth." He announced to everyone.

Annabeth blushed.

"That's wonderful. Now, let's have some food." Thalia suggested.

"Dinner?" Percy asked.

"Absolutely. Here, Annabeth, would you feed him? I'll feed Nico." Thalia pleaded.

"Sure." Annabeth smiled.

"No, Thalia." Percy shook his head.

"Fine, then Nico?"

Annabeth nodded.

Percy saw that his new friend was about to take Nico. "No, Annabeth!"

Quickly, he leaned over to her and clambered into her lap as soon as Thalia let go.

"You look like a mother already." Connor stood up and applauded her.

"Do you want to die?" Thalia snarled.

Connor sat down immediately.

Thalia took Nico in her arms. Two small bottles appeared in front of her. One was black and had white skulls around it, and the other was just a bold pink.

Thalia reached for the black one, not sure why there was a pink one.

"No, Nico, take the pink." Percy ordered.

"Pink!" Nico nodded.

Thalia nearly dropped him in shock.

"You want pink?" She gasped.

"Pink." Nico confirmed.

The entire pavilion roared in laughter.

"Nico likes pink!" Connor yelled. "Next thing you know, he'll be calling Thalia Mommy!"

Percy listened silently. As soon as the laughter died down, he turned to Nico.

"Call Thalia Mama." He jumped up and down in Annabeth's lap.

"Mama." Nico happily complied.

Thalia plopped down in between Malcolm and Annabeth and stuffed the pink bottle in Nico's mouth.

Percy giggled. "Mama, Mama, Mama!"

"Percy, eat your food." Thalia told him.

"No. I'm not hungry." Percy leaped off of Annabeth and ran to the other end of the pavilion. He turned to see if Thalia was following him.

Thalia groaned again. She finished feeding Nico calmly, and then gently set him down. He got up and staggered around. Everybody kept an eye on him, and another on Percy.

Thalia made a face at him, which resulted in him giggling. She jumped up and began chasing him. Luckily, since she was bigger, she caught up to him faster.

He screamed bloody murder, but Thalia carried him back to the Athena table and stuffed a spoonful of spaghetti into his mouth.

"I don't want spaghetti!" Percy screamed. "I want chocolate!"

"I'll give you chocolate after you eat dinner." Thalia compromised.

"Mama, chocolate." Nico ran over.

"Give me now!" Percy struggled against Thalia's second spoonful, this time of soup.

"I'll eat by myself!" Percy decided.

Thalia let him go.

"Okay, but I am going to count to three and you should have that soup and spaghetti finished." Thalia warned him.

"No, don't count to three, count to one hundred." Percy ordered. Then he paused. "Can you count that high?"

"One." Thalia began.

"Mama, chocolate." Nico grabbed her leg and pulled.

"Nico wait!" Thalia sighed. "I'll give it later. After I get some."

"Give me! Give me! Give me now!" Nico shrieked.

"Two." Percy reminded Thalia. "Five, fifteen, eight, nine, ten, leven, twelve, A, B, C, D, LEMON, N, O, P Q, R, T, V, U, W, Z."

"Percy, eat your food!" Thalia snapped. She pulled up Nico on her lap. "And call me Thalia. I'm not your mother."

"Mama. You are Mama." Nico patted her face.

"Done!" Percy pushed his empty plate away.

"You ate all of that?" Thalia looked at him doubtfully. Then, she looked at his sauce covered face, and soup spilled clothes and realized that he had eaten something.

"Annabeth, could you hand me some napkins?" Thalia asked

Annabeth handed them over silently. Thalia wiped off the sauce on his face, and then sighed.

"You're going to need a bath." She moaned. "And how did you get cheese in your hair? How did you even get cheese?"

"Mallie gave it to me." Percy said.

Thalia turned to Malcolm, just in time to see Nico flip Malcolm's plate all over himself.

"Nico!" Thalia scolded.

"Chocolate!" Percy suddenly remembered.

"Give me chocolate." Nico added.

"I'm sorry, Malcolm." Thalia apologized, grabbing some more napkins.

"It's no big deal." He blushed.

Suddenly, laughter erupted from nearby Chiron. Mr. D clapped his hands gleefully.

"Oh, this is lovely." He snorted. He clapped his hands, and chocolate descended into the eager hands of Percy and Nico.

"That is your reward for being such excellent dinner entertainment. Oh, I certainly hope you'll be trouble for this demigod. Terry, isn't it your job to make sure that these two learn their manners?" Mr. D turned to her.

"What do you two say to Mr. D?" Thalia prompted, glaring at the god.

"Thank you Mr. D." The two boys recited in unison before digging into their dessert.

Thalia sighed as she looked at the mess the two had created. At least her huntresses could clean up the actual pavilion if that was a problem. She still had to give the two devils baths.

What do you think? This one was a pretty good long one, I think. I tried to update as soon as I could get to a computer since I saw all the positive reviews.
