Chapter 6
Disclaimer: I do not own PJO. If I did there would be some major changes...:D
Percy's POV:
After Nico left, I just decided to stay at the tree. I needed time to think. Things were changing so fast. I know that if Annabeth were here right now she would probably be here, sitting with me but she's not. I miss her. I'm not sure but I think that I might have a crush on her. Well, anyway, I knew Nancy could change a lot at this camp. I knew that we were also enemies but that was a couple of years ago. People can change...right? I needed someone to talk to. Grover wouldn't understand. I just decided to go talk to Nico again. I'm pretty sure he has a pretty serious crush on Thalia.
Once I got there I saw him running into the shadows, trying to disappear. "How's the shadow traveling coming?" I asked him. He was so surprised he tripped over his own feet. I started cracking up.
"Not funny, Percy. Not funny at all," He scowled.
"C'mon, Nico, I'm just playing. Plus I needed someone to talk to," I grinned.
"Weren't we just talking like ten minutes ago?" He asked.
"Yeah, but I didn't know who else to talk to," I answered.
"Well, here I am. What do you want to talk about?" He questioned.
"First, I"m going to ask you a very serious question," I answered solemnly.
"Um, okay?" He said hesitantly.
"Do you have a crush on Thalia?"
"What? Um, what, no! Of course not," He stammered.
"Nico, you're blushing," I laughed. "I think I know what the answer is."
"Am I really that obvious?" He asked.
"Do you really want me to answer that?" I gave him a pointed look.
"Ummm, no it's ok," He said.
"That's what I thought," I answered.
"So, what else did you want to talk about?" He asked.
"It's about Nancy," I answered.
"Okay, got it. Shoot," He said.
"Why wasn't she tracked by monsters by now? I mean, she is probably as powerful as me and I was tracked down by monsters by a ripe age of seven," Nico snickered, "She should've at least had a a mental break down or something by now!"
"Are you done?" Nico asked. I nodded. "Good, my turn to talk. Nancy was probably not tracked by monsters because Hestia didn't even want Nancy to be a demi-god! You, however, were tracked by monsters because for the first few years of your life, didn't have anything to cover up your scent. Right now let's just let Chiron do the work while we hang back and relax and let Nancy get settled in here."
"Wow, Zombie Dude, that was well thought out and deep. I've never seen that side of you." I said awed.
"Percy, it's a gift. A gift that you obviously don't have. It's obviously in the godly side of the family, it just must have...skipped you." Nico joked.
"Gee, thanks, Nico. At least I know I inherited the sarcastic gene of the family," I countered.
"Whoa, Percy, you used the word 'inherited'. Congrats, you now how to finally use a word that has more than five letters!"
"Shut up, Death Breath, at least I don't have a crush on a...hunter!" I yelled.
All of a sudden two skeletons came up out of the ground and pinned my arms behind my back and held a knife to my throat. "Take that back. Now, Percy!" Nico shouted. I can't believe I forgot about Nico's anger problems.
"Fine, fine, I take it back," I said, trying to move my head as little as possible in order to avoid my head being cut off.
Nico took a deep breath and snapped his fingers. The skeletons disappeared. "I think I'm going to take a nap," Nico whispered. He looked like he was a ten-year old again.
As he walked away I said, "Hey, Nico," He looked back, "Don't feel so bad about what just happened. I get it. You were frustrated. Just try to keep your anger in check, okay?" He nodded then walked up to me and gave me a hug.
"Thank you," He whispered.
"No problem. Now go nap before you faint," I gave him a little push in the direction of his cabin. He gave me a small smile as he walked up.
I decided to go back to my cabin. On my way there I saw Travis Stoll chasing Katie Gardner around camp. They weren't dating yet but everyone knew it would soon be coming. Then I saw the Hypnos cabin walking down to the dining hall, almost as if they were in a trance, then again, they probably were. As I got to my cabin I saw someone waiting there. As I got closer I saw that it was a certain blonde. It was Annabeth! She fell asleep on my porch swing, waiting for me no doubt. Wow, I think that comment alone just doubled my ego. Oh, well. I walked up to her, knelt down, and shook her lightly. "Annabeth, Anna, Wise Girl," at that she woke up.
"Hey, Seaweed Brain, I've been waiting forever," She mumbled as she was trying to wake up. I gave her a light kiss on the lips. She shook her head. Apparently that woke her up.
"Oh, Percy," I looked at her. "Don't. Call. Me. Anna."
"Whatever you say, Wise Girl," I said as she hugged me. I smelled her lemon soap.
"So where were you?" She asked me.
"Oh, you know, the usual," She looked at me. "Just broke up a fight between major gods, teased Nico then faced the wrath of his Skeleton warriors, and then faced a younger, sadder Nico. Just the norm for me."
"Why did you break up a fight between major gods?" She wondered aloud.
"Oh, Wise Girl, let me tell you from the beginning," I told her in a calm voice. Me and her entered my cabin as I began to tell the story of what she missed.
Soooo, what did you think? I'm really sorry I haven't updated sooner. I probably would've even updated later but I have a small reminder voice living right next to me...Yes I'm talking about you RACHEL! Anyway, I hope you liked this chapter and please enjoy the rest of my stories.~ Demigirl606
