Me: Sorry for not updating for so long! I've had a lot of useless stuff (ie. homework) to do and it has been taking ages to finish. But this isn't about me and my busy schedule.

Percy: No, it isn't will you just get on with the story already?

Me: Yes, I will, just give me a second will you?

Percy: One Mississippi, Your time is up!

Me: Agh! You know what I mean! Anyways, special shout-out to incredible readers and authors who have answered the question in the last chapter who are:

Apollo's Child, MatildaSue, Hope-Hikari, Stephenlongboard, and Ivy000. They are all awesome writers with insane writing abilities and have incredibly cool stories that should be checked out.

Percy: Can we start yet?

Me: You're really annoying Percy. Has anyone ever told you that?

Percy: Well, not many, only Annabeth, Thalia, Nico, Jason, Piper, Leo-

Me: We get the point! Gods! Before I go strangle Percy, all I want to say is thanks for reading people and don't forget to review! Now where did that demigod go...

Poseidon's POV

I let out a sigh of relief as Zeus finally suggests that we start heading down to our ride. Talking to Percy had been impossible, as all he did when I tried to start a conversation is nod and not say a word! Usually Percy was good-natured and out going and would always start chatting about something or other but now, he was acting like... like... that was it! The child of Hades! That's who he was acting like!

As we walked down half-blood hill and passed Thalia's pine, I noticed that my brothers children where also acting a little strange. The child of Hades was constantly brushing back his hair and from what I could hear of it, his voice was high, far higher then usual. He was also giving Hades the cold shoulder and not talking with him at all and when he did, it was always accompanied by heavy sighs.

The lieutenant of Artemis, on the other hand, was acting quite sociable chatting on and on, all the while waving her hands in complicated gestures. I had to suppress and chuckle as I caught the look on Zeus's face as he listened to his daughters ramblings.

As we finally reached the bottom of the hill, I started looking around for our '5 star ride' as Zeus put it but all I could see was a beaten old grey taxi with 'The Grey Sisters' written on the side. My searching grew frantic as I realized that that was the only car that there was around here!

"Zeus..." I said in a menacing tone. "Tell me that's not..."

My annoying younger brother grinned a sheepish grin. "Well, that was the only car I could find! Apollo's chariot is being used for some silly rising of the son, Artemis's sleigh is being repared, Athena's owl has terrible diarrhea. I was actually quite lucky to find this car, because..." He trailed of here as he noticed the death glared that me and Hades were giving him.

"What?" He asked innocently.

"Zeus." Hades began in an exasperated tone. " Why don't we just give up on the useless trip and go home already? I have a lot of souls to judge-"

"But Hades!" Zeus interrupted. "We must spend more time with our children so we can know them better and what not" He said, seeming to choke on the last few words as he looked at Thalia, who was still rambling on about something or other. "We must take this trip no matter what happens" He said. Then, he held up a pair of battered car keys and grinned. "So who wants to drive?"

Nico's POV

As our parents began to argue, we wandered away to where the car was and as soon as we were out of earshot, Thalia stopped her continues blabbing and took a deep breath. "Phew. Can we take a break? I'm tired of acting stupid."

"Hey!" Percy exclaimed indignantly. "I'm not stupid! I don't even talk like that! and plus, it is far easier acting stupid then emo"

I scowled at him. "I'm not emo!" I growled. "I don't even act like that! Acting like Thalia is much worst. I nearly died of embarrassment when I had to flick my hair and roll my eyes like miss Diva here."

It was Thalia's turn to scowl. "Who are you calling Diva, emo?"

I opened my mouth to retort but lost my train of though as I spotted a strange contraption like a chair on one of the seats in the car.

"What's that?" I asked.

Thalia rolled her eyes. "Seriously Nico? It's called a booster seat. It's for little kids" she explained. Then, she smirked. "Like you"

"I'm not a little kid!" I said indignantly.

Percy shrugged. "Yes, you are. So you'll be sitting in that seat."

My jaw dropped. "That's not fair! and plus, if anyone should sit in that seat, it's Percy."

His mouth fell open. " No way am I sitting in that... thing. I'm older then you so face it kiddo"

Triumphantly, I shook my head "Actually Percy, if you're going by age, I'm the oldest and you are the youngest. I'm around seventy remember? Thalia is around her twenties now and you, my friend, are only sixteen. So kiddo, I guess you'll be sitting in that seat then." I smirked smugly. The look in Percy's face was priceless. I wished I had brought my camera.

"But" Percy stuttered, glancing now fearfully at the seat and looking around as if someone was watching. " I can't fit in that! and Nico, your years at the Lotus casino don't count."

"Why?" I asked, then looked at Thalia for help. "They do, right?"

Thalia nodded slowly. "Percy, they should. Though I have to admit it's a bit strange calling you seventy because you don't look more then five!"

"I'm thirteen" I said, then without thinking, rolled my eyes. I hoped nobody else had noticed.

Thalia shrugged "Thirteen, five, same difference"

I opened my mouth to retort that yes, there was a huge difference when I spotted my father and uncles heading to where we were standing. Thaila immediately began rambling, Percy quickly ruffled his hair so it hung over his eyes, and I adapted a causal posture, leaning against the car.

"Sorry for that" Lord Poseidon apologized, his green eyes flashing irritably "We had some... business to discuss. But now, we should get going."

And that is how I found my self wedged between Thalia and Percy and, you guessed it, on the booster seat.

As Zeus revved the ancient engine to life, I squirmed in my seat, think how long this trip would be. Sadly, the answer would be a long, long time.

Thalia: HAHAHAHAHA! Nico in a booster seat! I am so telling everybody at camp!

Nico: What?! But that's not fair! It should've been Percy! It was just my bad luck that...

Me: Yeah, yeah, whatever and stop talking I have to do what I did to Percy to you.

Nico: Where is Percy?

Me: You will never know... *evil grin* Anyways, before the evil side of me takes over, I have to say that to please review as I live off of them, CC welcomed and all flames will be given to Leo for his forges.

Leo: Yay! Flames! Flame on people!

Thalia and Nico: Shut-up!

Me: Are all demigods so annoying? Must be another trait that all of them have, just like ADHD and dyslexia. Anyways, NEW CONTEST! Same rules apply, blab, blab, ect. This time you have to tell me who this is. Really easy. Here goes.

"I am Katie's Mother's other daughter's husbands youngest brothers demigod son"

There. Really easy and if you can guess it, the shout-out is yours. Please also include who's POV I should do next, whether or not Annabeth should show up soon, and vote or tell me where they should go. Well, that's about it! See ya!

Thalia: *Sniggers* still telling everyone at camp

Nico: *Groan*

Leo: Flame on!

Me: Seriously? Still reading? I said BYE! Now go do something else instead of staring at the screen and reading an 13 year-olds writing. GOOD LUCK WITH THE CONTEST! BYE! :)
