Chapter 2
Thalia's POV
Annie didn't come to breakfast which to her is the most important meal of the day. So I started at her cabin and there she was lying on her bed, hair all messed up. Then she mumbled something about a cucumber so I figured she was having a dream about food. I started pushing her she wouldn't wake up. I started moving her arms she wouldn't wake up then I tried slapping her in the face and she woke with a start. "Wha.. what happened?" I told her "You missed breakfast and slept in." She groaned then got up and said to me "Leave" "Well what a nice friend you are." I told her. Then she groaned again "No I mean leave because I'm going to get dressed." "oh." I said then left and sat by the door. I heard screaming I looked around Luke was running down the Aphrodite cabin and it looked like he had purple hair. Then I saw Stoll Brothers with Pepper spray running after him. Then Luke reached the Aphrodite cabin and slammed the door in Stolls face then they walked away sadly. I told Annabeth that I'd be right back and ran towards the Aphrodite cabin. What I found inside was Luke asking Silena if she could get the permanent dye out of his hair. I snuck up behind him and said "Nice hair." He jumped and turned around he groaned "Uhhh you saw me" "More like heard your girlish scream" I smirked. "Haha" He said then turned back to Silena. She had some weird kinda hairspray thing then sprayed it in his hair and it turned green! I laughed. "What?" he turned to me. I showed him his hair in one of the mirrors. He screamed. "Oops" Silena said "wrong one." Then she went to a cabinet and got out a bottle sprayed it in Luke's hair and it turned sandy blonde again. "Their" she said "All better." "Thanks" he said and left. I went out the door but didn't see him at all. So then I went to the Athena Cabin and saw Annabeth all ready. She was wearing shorts with her Camp Half-Blood T-shirt and her old converse with her dagger strapped to her waist. "Ready?" She asked. "Yep." Then we took off for our first class which was Sword and Shield training with Clarisse. "Wonder how that is going to be since she kissed Nico last night." I said. "She probably got over it by now." Annabeth said. When we got to the arena Luke, Clarisse, Malcom and Gia were there. Malcom kept glancing at Gia which was wearing shorts and a yellow and orange striped T-shirt with black sandals. Clarisse and Luke were going over the basics I didn't pay attention as long as I had my electric powers I wouldn't need my spear. Then what Luke said shocked me (Hey get it shocked cuz shes a daughter of Zeus) "and no using powers that you have you will be using swords and shields.. Thalia" I stood there with my mouth open never EVER as he ever said that before! Then I realized that I didn't pay attention to a word he said so I was going to die because some robot beat me up. That's fine I thought I'll just wing it like I did at school. We all got a sword and shield and went to an area where we had enough room and then they let the robots out. The first one tried to grab my wrist then I took my sword and cut his hand and head off. Then the next one snuck up on me and I jumped he tried to suffocate me but I jabbed him on the stomach and flipped him (their not that heavy) and stabbed my sword in his stomach and turned to the two next to me. One tried body slamming me and I fell on the ground hard he was about to bring his sword down when I rolled out of the way and stabbed him in the side and cut him in multiple places. The next one was hard he had a bow and arrows. I used my shield and almost got shot in the shoulder but moved just in time. I jumped on the robots back and stabbed my sword in his head and jumped off and stabbed him in the back. I looked around for more robots but there were no more so I figured I was done I looked around and saw that Malcom and other people were still fighting them. One boy was badly bruised and had multiple cuts but he was not giving up. I ran over to Annabeth I asked "How many robots did you have to fight?" "seven" she said breathing heavily. "four" I said. She took another deep breath and said "Lucky" Then everyone was done and the horn went off it was time for our next class I turned to Annabeth but she was already off for her cabin so I went to take my jacket off for my next class which was Archery with Chiron. Gia's POV Gosh I love Archery it is the best weapon anybody could ever use..well..if your good at it. I headed for Archery when I saw my brother Lee "Hey!" I said. He didn't answer "Hello?" I asked. Then he ran off so I just kept walking and thought to myself what's his problem? When I got to the class everyone from sword and shield training was there I went over to Malcom he was kind. He looked at me and started shaking a little. "Hi" I said "Um...hey" He said back looking at his sneakers then Chiron came in he had his bow and arrow he started telling us EVERYTHING that we need to know but I didn't need to know cause I already knew everything. Finally we got to shoot. I took my bow followed all the rules and drew my arrow I clipped it on and drew it back then when I was sure I would hit the target I released it. It of course hit the target perfectly I looked around and saw that Annabeth, Thalia and some other boy hit the target and only four other people got close to the target one person almost hit Chiron. He yelled "Hey watch where your shooting mister!" I giggled after fifteen minutes of practice it was time for my favorite part…The tournament. Chiron chose one person from each cabin and the cabins were Apollo, Athena, Zeus, Hermes, Ares, and Dionysus. He chose Me, Annabeth, Thalia(of course cause she's the only child of Zeus) Luke, some guy with black hair i think named Gat, and Pollux. We all picked our targets while the others went to sit. Everyone was cheering for their cabin. Chiron said "release when ready whoever can hit in or closest to the blue area will get to go in round 2." Then after he said that I released it flew right above the center. I saw the others. Annabeth right beside the center, Thalia in the red zone, Luke in the black zone, Get in the black zone and Pollux in the white zone. So the people who made it to round 2 are Me, Annabeth, and Thalia. We all retrieved our bows from the target and put them back in the quiver and started shooting it was basically the same thing except this time whoever hit the center or close to the center would win or we would have a round three. So we put our arrows in our bows and got ready to fire. When I was sure I would hit the target I hit the center right on. I looked at Thalia she looked disappointed I saw where her arrow went and it was in the white zone she was for surely not going to win. Annabeth's arrow went in the red zone so I won! Chiron congratulated me and gave me 20 drachmas I thanked him and went to put my bow back. I saw Annabeth and Malcom whispering and Malcom was sweating a little bit. Then he came up to me and said "Um...hey..Gia...so..uh..the fireworks is going on tonight...and..um..I was..um...wondering..uh..if you..wanted..to go together?" "Of course!" I shrieked. I always thought Malcom was nice, smart and charming but I thought he liked another girl! He said "Seriously um..I'll pick you up at your cabin at six." "Okay" I said then walked away I made sure nobody was paying attention to me and then jumped in the air and started singing Lalalalala sing a happy song from the smurfs. Then I ran into Clarisse and she punched me to the ground hard. I yelped in pain as she said "Watch where your going Loser." Then she ran off. I saw Lee running to me he looked down on me and said "Are you okay?" "Yeah" I said then he took me to the Apollo cabin where I could heal my face then he said to me "Clarisse is a jerk ignore her." "I knew that a long time ago." I said back to him then the horn went off and I headed for my next class which was free time I decided to go canoeing and at least try to win twenty drachmas but I suck at paddling so I probably was going to lose.
