Two updates in one day? Man, I am on fire! I don't know if the Pothena story is actually real. I made it up. So please don't put me on blast!
It took Travis exactly four hours to get Connor out of the Hermes cabin. Connor had his head buried in his sheet, bawling like a baby. The hottest girl that ever came to camp, a Mary-Sue called Sunshine Rainbow Sparkle Gorgeous something or other, had died from glittery spontaneous combustion. That girl was to be his date. Or at least his one-night stand. He figured her Disney princessy personality would make him want to murder her.
"Come on, Connor. I know she was the hottest girl at camp but still," Travis said, trying to comfort his brother.
"No, Travis. I've seen my share of hot girls. But Sunshine was the hottest and now she's gone," Connor moaned. Travis rolled his eyes.
"Connor, did you actually love that girl?"
"Love?" Connor scrunched up his nose at the word. "Are you crazy, dude? She was just hot to me."
"Then why are you acting like Annabeth when she's PMSing?"
"Because…everyone has someone but me. Percy has Annabeth. Jason has Piper. You even have whiny Katie Gardner. I'm lonely."
"Thalia doesn't have anybody."
"But she's a hunter. And if she wasn't she would get some crazy emo punk dude. Face it. I'm never going to find anyone to love."
Travis felt bad for his brother. He knew that Connor fell in love with every hot girl that walked his way but that he could never find anyone for him. Travis sighed and patted his brother on the back.
"It's okay, man. You can stay here. You don't have to come with me," Travis said. Connor didn't reply. Travis walked out of the Hermes cabin, feeling almost as sad as Connor.
Travis met up with Piper, Jason, Leo, Percy, Thalia, Annabeth, Katie, and the gods at the Big House. They'd decided to skip the next chapter of the story they were already reading and go on to another one. Hopefully one that wasn't terrible and cliché.
"You found a story?" Travis asked Katie.
"Yeah," Katie answered. Then her big green eyes got sad. "How's Connor?"
"Depressed." Piper sighed.
"Well, um, let's get on with the story. It's about some pairing named Pothena," Piper said. Poseidon and Athena raised their eyebrows.
"Poseidon and Athena," Athena guessed. Well not really guessed. She'd figured it out the moment Piper said it.
"We're not reading that," Poseidon and Percy answered at the same time. Aphrodite groaned.
"Come on, now. It may be interesting," Aphrodite encouraged. "What's the summary, Pipes?"
"Uh," Piper started, "It reads: Poseidon's a player at Olympus High School who gets any girl he wants. Athena's a hot know-it-all bookworm. When she comes to school Poseidon is determined to get her. Only problem is she hates his guts."
"Sounds interesting," Aphrodite cooed. Athena glared at her.
"Read it," Athena commanded. "But only because it sounds interesting." Piper nodded and clicked on the story. She cleared her throat and began to the read the first chapter.
"Chaper 1: Player," Piper read.
"This should be interesting," Katie mused.
Poseidon Godly looked in the mirror and checked out his perfectly hot reflection.
"Godly is my last name?" Poseidon asked. Percy shrugged.
"I guess it fits," Percy said.
He looked amazing. As always. Maybe that was the reason he got so many girls in his bed. His amazing good looks. Poseidon exited his room and raced down the stairs, meeting his brother, Zeus at the breakfast table.
"Woot, woot, I'm mentioned!" Zeus exclaimed.
"What's up, man," Zeus greeted his brother.
"The clouds, the sky," Poseidon answered.
"I love that joke," Travis said.
"Whatever, smart aleck. We're almost late for school so hurry up," Zeus snapped. Just then, their father, Kronos walked in.
"You two knuckle-heads were about to forget your school bags," Kronos said, handing them each their bags.
"Thanks, Dad," Poseidon said. Kronos winked at him. Zeus felt a pang of jealousy. Kronos had always preferred Poseidon to him.
"Not true," Zeus complained. "I was Kronos's favorite."
"No, I was," Poseidon argued.
"Need I remind you that Kronos tried to destroy us all? No one was his favorite," Athena reminded them.
"Oh yeah."
Poseidon hopped in his car and strapped his seat belt on. He waited for Zeus to come outside.
"Remind me again why you drive and I don't," Zeus grumbled.
"Because I'm your hotter and older brother," Poseidon answered cockily. Zeus groaned, rolled his eyes, and hopped into Poseidon's car.
"Man, I am so psyched for the new school year," Poseidon said.
"Why?" Zeus asked. "School stinks."
Athena gasped. "How can anyone say such a thing?"
"Artemis told me some new chick, her best friend, is coming," Poseidon answered.
"So what?"
"So? What if she's hot?"
"Then you'll get her in your bed, of course." Poseidon smiled at the thought of getting another girl in his bed. They arrived at school quickly, thanks to Poseidon's rapid driving.
As soon as Poseidon walked in all of the girls' eyes were on him. He spotted Aphrodite, some really hot girl (the hottest in school) that he'd screwed a few weeks ago. Unlike most girls, Aphrodite still clung to him after he'd done her. She was a major slut.
"I HATE WHOEVER WROTE THIS STORY!" Aphrodite screeched.
Aphrodite saw him and waved. Poseidon waved back. He then began to make a mental list. He put all of the girls he thought were hot on his "Do" list and all of the girls he thought were ugly on his "Don't" list. This was going to be an awesome year.
Poseidon met up with, Artemis. Artemis was his sort-of-friend that he hung out with once in a while. Artemis was good-looking with long auburn hair but Poseidon knew he would never get her because she was a man-hater. She seemed to be PMSing ALL the time.
"I hate this story," Artemis said.
"What's up, Arty?" Poseidon greeted her. Artemis smacked his arm.
"I told you to never call me that," Artemis snapped.
"Whatever, Arty. Where's your friend?"
"Why do you care?"
"Cause she might be hot. I could get her in my bed." Artemis snorted.
"Please, she's way too smart to fall under your spell."
"Whatever. In case you don't know I'm Poseidon freaking Godly. I get every girl I want. Well, except you because you're scary." Artemis glared at him.
"If you must know, her name is Athena and she's in the library," Artemis answered. Just as Artemis said, Athena burst out of the library door and greeted Artemis. Poseidon's jaw dropped looking at the seriously beautiful girl standing in front of him.
"We're not reading the rest of that," Athena declared. Katie nodded in agreement.
"Good grammar and everything but it was terribly boring," Katie said.
"And why do I have to be such a jerk?" Poseidon complained.
"On this website, a "jerk tries to win the nice pretty girl" story is a total cliché. There are so many of them," Travis replied.
"Let's go on to another one," Annabeth suggested. She exited the story and began to scroll through the pages. She found one that caught her eye. It was titled "Artemis Has a Baby".
"Did you find one that seems interesting?" Thalia asked.
"Yeah, but you're not going to like it," Annabeth answered. Thalia shrugged.
"Please, how bad can it be?"
"Very bad."
"What's the title?" Artemis asked curiously.
"'Artemis Has a Baby'."
"How about we pretend we never found this website?" Artemis suggested. Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Great idea," Thalia said.
"But hold on. I have to do something," Artemis said, she pulled out an ax and zapped away.
