Okay, this story is going to be in James' and Madison's POV. I'm not going to change the previous chapters, I'll just start putting James' POV and Madison's POV. And, I lowered Madison's age to fifteen and raised Nico's age to fifteen. I think you'll find out why…Oh and this chapter is going to be really really long. But, i think its mostly because of the talking. The talking is very important in this chapter because i have to introduce everyone , and the next chapter is going to be more detailed, so please don't judge me harshly...

I have no other news except the disclaimer so…here it is!!

Disclaimer: I do not own Percy Jackson and the Olympian series, if I did there would be flying pigs on each and every book/page. I DO own Madison and James and future characters.

Chapter 4

James' POV

The camp was cool. I mean, it wasn't that crowded because it was the end of December. But it still looked cool. I don't know how many cabins there were, I stopped counting after fifteen, and I didn't know most of the gods names. They don't really teach you this kind of stuff in a hospital, especially a mental one. All the cabins were different, they all represented something different. I studied random ones as we passed it. Hades' cabin was all dark, Hephaestus' cabin looked…amazing. It had all these cool designs, and I could tell it was carefully detailed. The Aphrodite cabin was a pale pink and just looked girlie. The door was opened, and there was only a few girls there. About 6 girls, no boys. Weird. When me and Percy passed they giggled and waved, I smiled at them, but Percy just looked the other way. Probably because of Annabeth. I passed the Hestia cabin and it was empty, not normal empty, like, its never been used empty. Doesn't make any sense, I know. But, something made me stop in front of it.

I studied it a little more. It was dark red, looked about ten feet high, twenty feet wide, and it seemed to have a fire on it. I squinted my eyes on the it. It did have fire! It was on fire!

"Percy!" I yelled, "The cabin is on fire! Do something!" I frantically yelled.

Nico stopped to see what I was yelling about and looked at me, then the cabin. Percy looked at me as if I was crazy.

"It's not on fire, James." Nico said.

"I see the fire!" I said and pointed to the cabin. I looked at it again. It was…gone. I blinked. Nothing was on fire. Am I hallucinating? They must think I'm crazy. I sighed, "Forget it, lets just continue the tour" I muttered.

"Uh-huh" Percy said, and shot a look at Nico. He shrugged and continued walking.

Madison's POV

I was with Thalia and Annabeth at the Arena. They told me that I was the first Aphrodite girl with ADHD, but I wasn't really happy about that. They told me most of the boys had ADHD. I shook it off and decided it was no big deal, even though I knew it was going to bite me in the behind later on.

"So, you should be the first Aphrodite kid to learn how to fight" Thalia said playing with her arrows.

"The first?" I asked, widening my eyes.

"Yeah, they're not one to fight. Like, in Capture the flag they're always on the sidelines cheering. But, your different. You have an advantage, ADHD come with it ups and downs, but being able to fight is the best advantage there is" Annabeth explained. She was dyslexic and had ADHD, but it didn't bother her, I admired her for that.

"In other words, Annabeth wants to train so you could be on her team when we actually play Capture the flag on Saturday." Thalia said, Annabeth nodded at her smiling.

"So will you do it?" She asked. I thought for a moment, then nodded. "Yes! Now, we train you." She said.

"I don't have a sword. And how am I supposed to learn all that by tomorrow?" I asked. Hmm, there's something I'm forgetting. Then my eyes went wide. "Today's Christmas!" yelled, and started jumping up and down. I stopped jumping when I saw Thalia's and Annabeth's faces.

"Yeah, we're doing a party tonight. Chiron approved, it's at the beach." Annabeth said, "You know we could bring dates. You should bring James." she added.

I shook my head furiously. "No, no, no, no!" I yelled. Then looked around the arena, there was a few hunters there.

"I'm leaving." Thalia said. I think it's because she can't like boys or anything.

"I don't like him! Well, not much anyways. He doesn't seem interested, he's here to protect me." I said to Annabeth when Thalia left.

"Right. Then make him like you. Go with another guy." Annabeth said. "Percy's off limits!" she quickly added.

"Don't worry, I don't like Percy. Only as, like, a friend and I don't like him and I will not use someone to get someone else's attention!." I replied. "Are we going to get gifts?" I asked, wanting to change the subject.

"Yeah, your half-sisters might give you a welcome present. Knowing them, they'll give you tons of clothes." Annabeth responded.

"Awesome." I said. And got excited knowing I was going to a party and getting presents

________________________________________________________________________

James' POV

I don't like Nico. When we finished the tour, he shooed Percy away because he wanted to talk to me. I already new what the conversation was going to be about.

"I want to take Madison to the Christmas party tonight." He said.

I stared at him. I didn't say anything.

"I need to know the truth, do you like her? Because if you do I'll back off." He continued, beginning to get impatient.

She doesn't like me, so I better not bother her. He seemed like he really likes her, so I'm not going to mess this up for him. "I don't like her. You don't need my permission, you could go with her." I said calmly.

He nodded. "Thanks, man, and just in case you want to go too, the party's at nine at the beach"

"Okay, see you there." I said and he left. Why did I do that? And who am I going to take to the party? Hey, I don't have to take someone. Well, if I don't want to get lonely.

________________________________________________________________________

Madison's POV

A Hephaestus kid, Brandon, gave me a loan sword. It was looked like any normal one so I was okay with it until I get a real one. Annabeth and I were in the arena, and she was teaching me how to sword fight. I was good, but she was much better. And she was fighting with a one foot long dagger. I learned that she had to get in close since her weapon was smaller. And since my sword was longer, I could stay one foot away and still fight while she struggled to get close.

"You're thinking way too much" She said as she swung at my arm, I dodged it. And we continued fighting.

"Aren't you Athena's daughter? You should be the one thinking too much!" I said as I jabbed her in the leg. I could tell it hurt because the look on her face. She didn't show any weakness though.

Then, I felt someone looking at me and shuddered. Out of the corner of my eye I saw a dark figure watching me and Annabeth. I lowered my sword a bit and looked at the figure. It was…Nico? Annabeth took that chance when I looked at him to hit my sword away and point her dagger to my throat. Nico looked away when that happened. I looked at Annabeth to see her grinning. She won.

"You can't get distracted in a fight." She said and cocked her head in Nico's direction. "He's looking at you" She added.

"What?" I glanced at him then quickly turned to Annabeth. "Oh, my gods. How do I look? Am I sweating or anything? How my hair?" I said quickly.

"Such an Aphrodite's child" She said. I glared at her, "You look fine, um, wait" She straightened my hair and smiled. "There. He's coming. Act natural" She said then rethought it. "Actually don't act natural" And we laughed.

He walked to us with his hand in his pockets, guess he had no where else to put them. When he got here he looked at me then Annabeth. He pointed his eyes away from us. She nodded and ran to the hunters since they were the only ones here. He looked back at me.

"So…" I said. Nervously playing with my fingers.

"Um, hi" He said. He looked as nervous as I looked.

"Hi." I replied..

"Did you hear about the party tonight?" He said. My heart skipped a little, I couldn't bring my voice to work, so I nodded. "Are you going with anyone?" he asked. My voice still didn't work so I shook my head. "Well, uh, would you like to go…with me?" He said.

I smiled and nodded. Thinking it was time to use my voice, I said "Yeah, yeah. Totally. I would love to." He grinned. He looked better when he smiled. He should do it more often.

"Cool, I'll pick you up at nine?" He asked.

"Uh, yeah. Nine would be great." I looked at my watch and saw that is was 7:25 pm. It was going to take forever to get ready so I thought I should start getting ready now.

"Okay. Well, see you later" He said and left.

I stood there for a moment and felt Annabeth tap my shoulder.

"Did he ask you what I think he asked you?" She said, I nodded and she clapped. "Well go and get ready! Only about two more hours till the party starts. And dress warm, it's still winter and I think their going to let it snow here." She said and pushed me out the arena door. "Aphrodite cabin is the only pink one so go!" She said I hurriedly left.

________________________________________________________________________

When I got to the cabin I was afraid to open it. I've never met my half-sisters before. I was bad at first impressions. I opened the door slowly. When I stepped inside, six girl faces looked at me. Then a girl with brown super long hair stood up.

"I'm Cassidy" She said and shook my hand.

"Hi, I'm Madison." I said, "I'm guess I'm your new half-sister." I added.

She smiled and nodded. The she pointed at the other girls "That's Monique, Kayla, Bailey, Kristen, and Shauna." She said.

"Uh, not to be rude, but do I have any half-brothers? Because I don't see any of them." I whispered, not wanting the other hear me.

"Yeah, there are five in the archery fields." She said.

"Did they agree to make the cabin pink?" I said

"No, but to have the outside pink, we had to make the inside blue. Didn't you notice?' She said and I looked at the walls. They were blue, like a darkish baby blue. I nodded and noticed a corner of the room with a girls picture and flowers and a sign that said R.I.P above it.

I walked over to it. "Who's that?" I asked and pointed at the picture.

She had a sad look on her face. "That's Silena Beauregard. She died in the titan war, she helped us win." She said. I nodded sadly then the door opened.

Five boys walked in and waved at me. They must be my half-brothers. They all looked nice…then I remembered they were Aphrodite's kids. I took the chance to study the room. The walls were blue, there were seven beds lined up in the left side, and I could tell it was the boys side because it looked…boyish somehow, lots of pictures of bands and stuff. The right has ten beds, and all had clothes over it except the one in the far right end. The were two boy and girls bathrooms, two each.

"That's your bed" Kayla said and pointed to the empty one. It was a twin sized bed, it had a purple comforter, like the one at my house. I suddenly felt home sick.

I put my stuff on my bed and laid down. I closed my eyes for a minutes. I opened it when someone asked me a question.

"Who are you going with to the Christmas party tonight?" Bailey asked. All the girls huddled around me to here who I was going with. I heard one of the guys say "Oh, gods. Here we go again."

I sat up. "Nico" I said. Some of their looks were surprised. I heard the same guy from before say, "Hades' creepy kid?"

I got up from my bed and headed to where the voice came from.

"Yes, Hades kid. No, he's not creepy!" I yelled at him. Everyone got quiet as I clenched my hands

"No need to get defensive. It's just that he's kind of creepy." The boy said.

I looked at him in disgust. "Who are you?!" I said

He straightened up. "Shawn, who are you?" Shawn said.

"Well Shawn. My name is Madison. And do you even know Nico?!" I snapped

"No, I don't I just assumed. He's always lonely and his only friends are Percy and Annabeth" He said.

"Well you forgot to mention me." I yelled. "And don't judge a book by it's cover" I added and walk back to my bed. They boys' faces looked shocked than they started laughing at Shawn.

The girls looked at me and smiled. "Way to go!" Said Monique, I laughed.

"We've got to get her ready for the party!" Cassidy said and they cheered. What have I got myself into?!

________________________________________________________________________

James' POV

I went to Hermes cabin after Nico told me he was going to asked out Madison. I have to admit, I was mad. Mad at Nico, mad that I was going to stay inside all night while Madison was with Nico, and mad that I was still unclaimed. I looked around the Hermes cabin looked like a normal cabin, only bigger. There was only a few people here. Girls were putting on make up, and the guy were just sitting around. There was a knock on the door. Nobody else noticed so I went to go open it. It was Annabeth and a girl I've never seen before. The girl was looking down nervously. She had blond hair like Annabeth, except hers was up to her waist and it was straight with brown highlight. She had very dark grey eyes, they looked almost black. She looked about sixteen

"Hey James." Annabeth said. Then pushed the girl in front of her. "This is Jessica. My half-sister" She said.

The girl smiled at me. "Hi" She said.

I smiled and said hi back.

"Jessica here wants to ask you something." Annabeth said. She pushed Jessica closer to me and ran back to her cabin. Jessica glared after her then focused her attention to me.

"Just make believe she never said anything" She said and laughed. I smiled at her and she beamed.

"So, what did you want to ask me?" I said putting my hands in my pocket.

"Oh, right. Would you like to go to the Christmas party with me?" She asked, looking at me straight in the eyes.

"Sure, I'll go with you" I responded. I grinned and she smiled even wider.

"Great!" She said. "I'll come by at nine O'clock. See you then!" And she ran off to be greeted by Annabeth. She looked back and smiled at me then went to her cabin.

I stayed their for a good two minutes. Then I heard a someone whistle beside me. It was Percy.

"So you and Jessica? I thought you had a thing for Madison" He said.

"I do not like her." I said. He nodded. I noticed how he was dressed. He was wearing a black jacket over a white and green plaid button up shirt, dark jeans, and black sneakers. "What are you wearing?" I asked him.

He looked down at his clothes. "It's what I'm wearing for the party. You better get dressed too, its 8:15." He said.

"Oh right" I said and ran back inside to get ready.

________________________________________________________________________

Thirty-five minutes later I was ready. I had put on what I had in my bag. A black shirt, jeans, and dark red sneakers. I borrowed a black jacket from a guy named Travis Stoll. I looked alright. My dark red-orange hair a little messy, my skin had somehow gotten a light tan, and being 5'8" really helped, since Jessica was a head shorter than me.

When I opened the door I saw Jessica about to knock. We laughed and I led her outside. It was snowing lightly, but there was no wind.

"You look nice" I said, and I wasn't lying. She was wearing a black long sleeve sweater, a grey turtle neck, light blue skinny jeans, and white boots. Her hair was the same as before only it had little white snowflakes on it.

"You don't look so bad yourself" She said grinning. "We have ten minutes to kill before the party starts. What do you want to talk about?" She asked.

"Um, tell me about yourself" I said and we walked along a non-seeable path.

"Well, you know I'm Annabeth's half-sister." She said, I nodded, "Well, I want to become a journalist. In my spare time I write. I don't have dyslexia or ADHD like all my other siblings. I'm the only different one. How about you?"

"I am currently unclaimed." I started, "I don't know what I want to be. I just want to find my father and know which goddess my mom is. I don't have dyslexia, but I have ADHD. In my spare time, I just don't do anything" I said.

"So your mom is your godly parent" She said, I nodded. Again. "Well lets help you figure it out. Your not Aphrodite's kid-"

"What I'm not hot enough? I think I look pretty good" I teased, she laughed.

"No, I've met Aphrodite before, you look nothing like her. Are you smart?" She asked. I thought for a moment. I shook my head. "That crosses out Athena. And Artemis and Hestia cant have kids. This is pretty hard." she said her eyebrows coming together.

"A problem that can't be solved. You must hate that." I said

"Yeah, I do." She replied.

"Forgot that for tonight. Lets just have fun. It's already time for the party, lets go" I said

She grinned and nodded. We ran off to the beach, hand-in-hand.

________________________________________________________________________

Madison's POV

When my siblings finished with me I looked amazing. They curled my hair and put something in it to make it to make it darker. I was wearing a light purple long sleeved shirt, thick black tights, and purple Uggs, I looked pretty hot. Bailey had lend me the clothes, only for tonight, she new I like purple and that was the only purple outfit she had.

Nico picked me up at exactly nine O'clock. He messed his hair up a little, it looked awesome, a black Ed Hardy shirt and black jeans with dark blue sneakers. Even with all the black, he looked pretty good.

"You look beautiful" He said when he saw me.

I laughed, "You look good too, handsome." I said and he blushed a little, I smiled and he led me to the party.

I looked around the beach and it was decorated beautifully. There were lights hanging on nothing lighting up the night sky. The food and drinks were being covered by an invisible shield because the snow never touched it. The ground is somehow dry and green even though the snow hit the ground. In the middle of it all, there was a large decorated tree. there was a bag next to it and I think thats were the presents are. It was wonderful.

When i looked at the people, I saw Shawn glaring at me, I glared right back. I looked around for Percy and Annabeth. I saw them laughing with…James and a girl with blond with long hair.

"Look, people we know!" Nico said and I laughed. We walked to the four people.

I found out the long-haired blonds' name was Jessica, she was Annabeth's half-sister. I smiled and greeted her. I smiled at James too, he was having the time of his life. They were dressed pretty, but I didn't look at the details. Percy was wearing a green and white plaid shirt, jeans, and black sneaker, and Annabeth was wearing a white turtle neck sweater and white skinny pants along with the same white boots that Jessica has. She was the brightest person here.

"Well" Nico said, "This is fun. Hey, Madison want to go dance?" he asked. I nodded and he pulled me away. I saw Percy and Annabeth, and James and Jessica dance too. Percy and Annabeth was dancing a bit slower like the oh so romantic couple they are. James and Jessica seemed to be having trouble dancing and starting laughing. I felt a bit jealous, but Nico cleared all that up. He was a great dancer, and I was too.

________________________________________________________________________

James' POV

Jessica and I were having a hard time dancing. She stepped on my several time and I stepped on her several times. We ended up laughing about it and getting something to drink.

"You're an awful dancer!" Jessica teased, poking me on the chest.

"Me? You stepped on me a thousand times!" I said back to her. She laughed and sipped her drink.

We talked for so long I lost track of time. I looked around and noticed Percy and Annabeth had stopped dancing and were sleeping on a bench. Nico and Madison was still dancing. It was about 11:00 pm.

"I'm having a great time with you" I said to her.

She smiled, "I'm having a great time too" she said and leaned in. I knew she was about to kiss me, but I don't know how to kiss a girl. I've been in a mental hospital for five year,and they don't teach you stuff like that! But, I leaned in anyways. And…It was the best first kiss ever. We pulled about and I laughed a bit.

"Why are you laughing?" She asked, doing the thing where she puts her eyebrow together.

"Nothing, its just…that was my first kiss" I said.

"What a relief, it was my first kiss too!" She said and we both laughed.

"I'm getting a little tired" She said once she calmed down.

"Yeah me too. Want to sit down?" I asked. She nodded.

We sat on a bench that was set in front of the beach. And it all started going wrong when the snow turned harsh and strong winds suddenly came.

So, was this alright? Big cliff hanger eh? This chapter was the longest I've ever written. It was their first day at camp, it was Christmas, and I wanted to show how the plot of the story happened. Well, not how it happened, but how it started. Please Review!!
