While building Argo 2, Leo decides to buy a new video - camera, and film everything that's going on. Including interviews with campers, Jasper, Percabeth and more (: I suck at summaries. Placed between TLO and SoN. T because I want.

Disclaimer: I if were Rick Riordan, I wouldn't be writing this. I'd be working on "The Mark of Athena". So apparently, I'm NOT Rick Riordan, who owns all the characters.

Chapter ten, part two: The Attack

An Interview With: Thalia Grace, daughter of Zeus

"Hi, Thals," Leo said as he and Piper walked over to where Thalia was guarding the flag.

"Don't call me that," was Thalia's automatic response. "How did you get here?"

"By fighting," Piper lied. The truth was that she charmspoke every hunter they had seen into letting them pass without a fight. It was a part of Leo's brilliant plan. He liked his plan. It was the first time Annabeth admitted he acted wisely.

"Why am I sure you're lying?" Thalia asked.

"I don't know," Piper shrugged. "Leo has something to ask you."

"What?" Thalia turned to Leo, and he wished his plan would work. Please, I want it to work, he prayed.

"Can I, mm, you know, interview you?" Leo shifted his weight from foot to foot. He was sure nobody would answer his pray. He was sure Thalia was going to punch him, or stab him with her spear. But instead, she started to laugh.

"Interview? Me?" She managed to say. "First of all, why would you do that? Secondly, why would I let you do that?"

Leo looked at Piper. This is why he brought her with him, so she could convince Thalia, because Leo wasn't very good at it.

"Please, Thalia?" Piper preened. "Leo thought it would be cool if he could interview campers, then when the war will be over we would watch everything. Don't you want to be a part of it?"

Thalia sighed. "What should I do?" she asked.

"Just answer my questions," Leo crowed, "and be honest."

"Fin - Wait a minute!" Thalia said. "Why should I trust you? We're in the middle of a game. You're the enemy."

"C'mon, Thalia," Piper begged. "You hunters are too good. It's a surprise we're even here. Please let us interview you!"

"Where's Annabeth?" Thalia asked instead of answering.

"I don't know," Piper lied again, "please?"

"Fine," Thalia sighed. "Let's get it over with."

"Yay," Leo said. He took out his camera (he put it in his tool belt earlier) and turned it on. "Let's start! Hi, Thalia."

"Hi, Leo," Thalia replied.

"How are you in this lovely day?" Leo asked.

"Does it count as a question?" Thalia said.

"No," Leo said.

"Okay then," Thalia gave up. "I'm great. What about you?"

"I'm more than great," Leo smiled. His plan was actually working! "Let's start with the questions."

"I'm waiting," Thalia crossed her arms over her chest.

"Hmm, Piper, what is the first question?" Leo whispered.

Piper rolled her eyes. "So, Thalia," she said. "How would you describe your relationship with Percy?" (Thank you, Shannononom, for the question!)

Thalia thought about it for a minute. "Annabeth says we're a lot alike," she said. "I mean, she says that we have the same personality. I guess he's one of my best friends. We got to know each other pretty good while freeing Artemis a few years ago. He's annoying, yes, but everybody has their cons. I would say that I will be overjoyed when he will come back."

"Interesting," Leo looked over his shoulder. Why wasn't Jason coming? Thinking about Jason, it gave him an idea. "We discovered that Jason is your brother," he said, "how did you feel when you found out that he can fly and you can't?" (Thank you, My Pretty Kitty7, for the question!)

Thalia made a face. "Hurtful," she said quietly, and then louder: "I don't know. I can use electrical powers and all, and it somehow difficult for him."

"So what you're saying is," Leo said, "that you don't care?"

"Yes?" Thalia said.

"And how does it feel, being the daughter of Zeus and being scared of heights?" Leo smiled evilly. (Thank you, My Pretty Kitty7, for the question!)

"Leo Valdez, you better run for your life," Thalia warned. "I'm not going to answer it."

Leo didn't have to do much. He looked at Piper, and she started to charmspeak Thalia. "Please? It must feel awful. I know that Jason feels awful that he can't use lightings and you can."

"Piper McLean, I am warning you," Thalia said. "If you ever, ever will try to charmspeak me again, you're going to find yourself in Tartarus!"

"Sorry," Piper said.

"Moving on," Leo said, even thought he wanted to know Thalia's answer. "Have you gotten in a fight with any of the hunters?" (Thank you, Seven, for the question!)

Surprisingly, Thalia laughed. "Yeah, it happens once," she said. "We were fighting on if we should go search for Percy. I said we should, and she said that he's a boy, and we can't search for an irresponsible demigod. I guess I won."

"Did you punch each other?" Leo smiled.

"Nah, of course not," Thalia said. "We are civilized people."

"Ohh," Leo said. "What a shame."

"Leo!" Piper said, and then turned to Thalia. "Thals, we know that you traveled a lot with Annabeth and Luke. What was it like?" (Thank you, j and m's camphalfbloodtales, for the question!)

"The time I had traveled with them is one of the best times of my life," Thalia said. "We were carefree, I would say, but we had to make sure monsters won't attack us. Once I broke my ankle, and once Luke was sliced by a hellhound. His hand wouldn't stop bleeding for days!"

"Don't you miss these days?" Piper asked. "Don't you ever want to quit the hunt?" (Thank you, Lotty di Valdez, for the question!)

"No," Thalia said. "The hunters are my second family. Artemis is out leader, but she's also like the old sister I had never had."

"She is your sister," Leo murmured, but his didn't pay much attention to what Thalia was saying. He was focused on the top-tree that was behind him. Please, Jason, come fast!

And Jason did come. Out of nowhere, there was a wind. Thalia looked around, confused, and Piper and Leo tried their best to hide their laughter. Leo's plan was working after all.

"You know Thalia," Leo said, "you should have been more suspicious."

"What do you mean?" Thalia looked even more confused.

"Remember what we said about Jason?" Leo smiled evilly. "He flies. Annabeth has an invisibly hat. Put them together, and walla!"

"Hi, Thalia," Jason took off Annabeth's hat. He was flying above the trees, the hunters' flag in his hands. "Sorry to bring you the news. The hunters had lost." And he flew away.

"You little.. Arg!" Thalia called. She looked at Leo and Piper, whom started to back off. "I'm going to get you!"

"Jeez, Thalia, it's just a game," Leo said, but he had started to escape at the same second Piper escaped.

"I'm going to get you!" Thalia called and ran after them.

"Well, well," Chiron said. "I'm proud to say it for the first time. Camp Half-Blood won!"

Everyone stood in the dinning pavilion. The hunters were mad at Jason, Piper and Leo, and the campers were so happy nothing could ruin their mood. They won the game for the first time! Percy would be so proud. "Now off to bed, everyone," Chiron said. "Good night."

"How did you beat Thalia?" Jake asked Leo when they entered their cabin.

"Easily," Leo smiled. "Piper and I had talked with her, while Jason turned invisible and took the flag. Simplest plan in the history of plans."

Jake laughed. "What did Annabeth do?"

"Went to tell Chiron we're about to win," Leo yawed. "And I'm going to tell my pillow about it. Good night."

"Good night, Leo," everyone said, and the Hephaestus cabin fell asleep.

Yeah, I know this chapter isn't the best. Feel free to tell me what you think. Tell me if you like it, if you don't, and if you don't explain.

Am I the only one who thinks I'm getting better?

As for the answers part... I really have to go now, so there won't be an answers part for this chapter, OK? I'm sorry. I wish I could, but I can't.

I still love you all, don't forget that!

And my uncle told me he will take me to the premiere (?) of The Hunger Games movie! Yay me! SO EXCITED!

So until next time.. LOVE YA ALL!

HAVE A NICE WEEK :D
