CHAPTER TWO: THE OTHER PRANK THAT STARTED IT ALL
The three of us go into Nemesis's cabin, to find Alexander Vengaza. He once tried to literally kill the three of us, cuz Lou was dating him, he hit on me, I told Percy, he told Lou, and she broke up with him.
"Razor, check. Drew's choice of an awesome outfit, check. Magical makeup, check. Jewelry, check. Nail polish, check. Quilted toilet paper, check. Bra, check. Hair bows and clips, check. Tiara, check. Hair curler, check. Body jewels, check. Itching powder, check. Sharpie Permanent Ultra Color Set, check. Rainbow hair dye, check. Whipped Cream, check. Mirror that will be coveniently next to his pillow, check. And feather, check. All set." I whisper.
WARNING! Do not read the next paragraph if you do not like criminal mischief, or imagining hilarious, and kind of digusting things in your head. You've been warned.
We start with his clothes. We remove everything but the underwear. I pour itching powder in that, and stuff the bra we have with itching powder covered toilet paper. Lou puts that on him, as I ruffle the dress. It's a slim, one-sleeved, pink one with ruffles. Percy puts that on him and Lou and I slip on black tights and white, six-inch heels. Percy paints little flowers on his nails while I put transparent gloves on him. Lou puts many rings, necklaces, bracelets, anklets, and a pair of earrings on him. I shave the right half of his beard, mustache, and hair. On the bald side of his face, Lou draws pictures of us beating him up, doing this, and eating hotdogs with the Sharpies. Percy applies makeup and mascara with an expert hand and I almost laugh out loud. Lou curls random streaks of remaining hair, and Percy dies them rainbow. I put bows in his beard, clips in his mustache, pull his hair into a braid, and put on a tiara. Our masterpiece.
I cover a feather with itching powder (gotta love it), while Percy sprays whipped cream into his palm. Lou drops the feather on his face, and we make a run for it.
"HEY EVERYBODY! WATCH 'N' LEARN WHAT'LL HAPPEN IF YOU MESS WITH THE POSEIDON TRIPLETS!" Lou screams. The whole camp gathers in front of the Nemesis cabin, as we hear a scream.
Alexander runs out and the whole camp laughs. He turns scarlet and looks directly at us. Lou and I blow kisses, and Percy stands there, laughing as, everyone pulls out a cellphone and takes a pic. I start a video of him. He starts trying to push through the crowd to get to the showers. Iris created a cellphone for demigods where it doesn't attract monsters. It charges by making a rainbow and putting it in, and the texting, data, and talking plans are paid for with drachmas and denarii.
I put the video on YouTube and go back to our cabin.

IN AN EVIL LAIR NOT SO FAR AWAY:
"I will not be laughed at!" Alexander screams at the dark figure on the computer screen.
"Relax, Vengaza. You will get your revenge, and we shall get the triplets." The dark figure replies in a deep voice.
"Why do you want them, my lord?"
"Because, they have powers unlike any other demigod. I will torture them, as they are also trusted with more information. I will then take their DNA and make a potion to give me their powers, and take over the gods, and therefore the world."
"How do we bring them to you?"
"By torturing their families, video-taping it, and sending the videos to the demigods. Each time, giving them clues to where they are. And when they come, they will witness the execution, and when I have their information and powers, I will let them live just long enough to see the end of the world."
"Wow, the author couldn't have come up with a better plot?"
"Don't break the Fourth Wall Venganza. You know how much I despise it."
"Sorry my lord."
And with that, he headed back to camp, to kidnap the ones spoken of a minute earlier, and put the plan into action.
