I apologize greatly for not updating sooner I was having some technical difficulties, so here's how it goes:
I work REALLY hard on a new chapter for you guys because I got so many great reviews' even postponed studying for all my tests and put off absent homework that I REALLY should have been doing… So anyway, I upload it and do all that other stuff, and go to insert it into my story and it says Error Type 2, so I'm like okay I'll do it tomorrow. So tomorrow comes and I go to upload it and the same thing happens. So the other day I'm reading Persephone Files for Divorce (great story! Hilarious!) By I'mTheGirlWhoLearnedToFly (great author!) and she mentions that the same thing happened to her and she tells how to fix it so much thanks to her! She also asked to pass it on for others who might be having trouble uploading so here it is:
h t t p : / / l o g I n . f a n f I c t I o n . n e t / s t o r y _ e d I t _ c o n t e n t . p h p ? s t o r y I d =
Evidently you need to remove the spaces. I needed to add them because otherwise fanfiction wouldn't let me upload the link.
Copy your 'STORY ID' and paste it right after the '=' sign. Again, no spaces.
If you don't know what a story ID is, in your story just below authors name you'll see the following details:
Rated: Rating-language-genre-main characters-Reviews: Number of Reviews- Publish: Date published- Update: Date updated-(in) complete- Id: whatever your id is.
OR:
Go to Publish down to my stories and click preview and in the right hand corner it will say your story id!
Copy the ID and put it after the = sign JUST COPY THE NUMBERS NOT ID- then paste it!
Then upload and Voila you have uploaded and are pleasing many a people! It worked for me and I hope hope hope! It'll work for you too!
Special Request:
Please keep passing this on to anyone you think might be going through the same problem. Publish it as an AN or put it in your profile. PLEASE PASS ON! AND MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE! (Can you do that by uploading stories/chapters…?)
SO I'm sorry for not updating sooner but I'm updating now! So enjoy!
Disclaimer: No, I unfortunately do not own PJO. I do unluckily own all of these papers to help me study for all of my tests and quizzes though…
Travis POV
When I woke up the next morning the sun was glaring right through the window and straight into my eyes. Ow. Dad must have pranked Apollo recently, because the sun was piercing through the cabin windows. I looked at the clock hanging up on the far left wall, it read 7:49. I groaned and rolled over trying to block everything out and go back to sleep but a certain somebody decided that it was necessary to wake me up.
"Yo dude! Get up! Full day ahead of us!" Connor yelled, no shouted into my face.
"Go away."
"Aww is that anyway to talk to your own brother?" he asked. I mentally groaned again, when I had finally finished "cleaning" the cabin last night it had been around one thirty in the A.M., then when I had laid down to go to bed my mind didn't want to and started reeling with questions about the book, and Katie, especially Katie.
"Dude! Hello? Should we wait a day to pull the prank? I don't need my best man zoning out on the job when we prank the Ares' cabin." Connor said annoyingly
"Connor, dude," I said "I'm your only man."
"Oh yeah… well thanks for the reminder since I cant go in without an alliance, I'll just have to drag my alliance." And with that said, he grabbed my arms and hauled me to the doors.
"Connor wait!" I yelled.
"What?" He asked, "I want to get this done with today, meaning within this century."
"I'm not dressed." I said.
"Oh." He said
"Oh, yeah." I mimicked
"Shut up."
PAGEBREAK
"Wow, I can never really wrap my mind around how many dangerous but awesome things there are in this cabin. It's great!" I said looking around the cabin.
"Yeah yeah yeah, now help me find their armor. Which reminds me, you have the spray paint?" Connor asked
"Wouldn't leave without it." I replied, only somewhat evilly.
"Good. Let's do this." And with that said we got to work.
PAGEBREAK
I located the armor hidden behind a pile of clothes. "Found it!" I yelled to Connor. He yelled back and told me to stop dawdling and paint it the Ares Cabin is serious about their training and would probably be back soon. So I did what all other brothers would do in his case; I told him to shut the hell up.
"Pink or gold?" I asked.
"Do the breastplate pink and gold stripes." Connor yelled from across the room to me. We had figured if we were doing pink we might as well do something good too. So we figured what's another color Ares would hate? And gold was the perfect color to use.
15 minutes later when I had finished spraying it I stepped back and admired my handiwork. I looked over to see what Connor had done, he had gone overboard. He had instead of just painting the weaponry, had taken the boar that was hanging outside of the cabin, repainted it pink and added little bows. It looked like a cute little pink poodle. (One with a disfigured face at that.)
"We rock." Connor said.
"I second that." I said. "Now let's get out of here before they get back."
"Oh there's no need to worry about that. Connor said smirking evilly making me jump to horrible conclusions.
"Oh my Gods! Connor YOU KILLED THEM! HOW COULD YOU! WE HAD AN AGREEMENT WITH CHIRON, WE COULD KEEP THE PRANKING UP AS LONG AS NO ONE GOT KILLED OR INJURED AGAIN! WHA-"
"Dude chill. Your going to make them hear us!" Connor said.
"How can you be worried about that, the only way they can hear us is if their ghosts-OH MY GODS CLARISSE'S GHOST IS GOING TO HAUNT ME FOR ETERNITY!" I grabbed Connor and began to shake him violently.
"Dude they're not dead!" He yelled. "Well of course unless Annabeth got aggravated by them and killed them…"
"Whadda mean?"
"I asked Annabeth to distract them at breakfast this morning, so we could do this, and she agreed." Connor replied.
"When did you do this? You were with me the whole time!" I said now only slightly peeved.
"Not all of us need beauty sleep. Oh and by the way you talk in your sleep something like; she kissed me she kissed me." He smirked at me. "Who kissed you Travie?"
I managed not to blush and said, "Oh. That was smart, so we should probably go tell her she can stop distracting them now, right?"
"You're an idiot, let's go." Connor said grabbing my ear and dragging me out of the Ares cabin.
"Wait where are we going? Connor? Stop! You're pulling to hard on my ear! CONNOR!"
"You should really stop yelling, I mean it's what 8:30, you're going to have no voice left by the end of the day." Connor said.
"Hmph. I hate you." I told him
"I love you too." He said smirking at me.
PAGEBREAK
Connor explained his genius plan to me on the way, while I had slept away this morning (at least according to him) he had scoured the book looking for more good pranks and stumbled onto one for the Athena Cabin. He showed me the book which he had conviently brought along.
If one does wish to prank the Athena Cabin you must be cunning and decisive. A classic prank to play is Spiders. You can retrieve the spiders from the attached pocket. Alive or fake, your choice whichever you would choose. The prank is simple, you toss the cube into the cabin, you have one minute until the cube breaks, and it will only break open on the floor or wall of the Athena Cabin though. Please take caution Athena is very temperamental about people pranking them, especially outsmarting them.
"Pretty easy." I said. "But are you sure, I mean Annabeth and Malcolm could be expecting something like this, I mean what not with all the prank supplies we got for our birthday.
"That's a risk I'm willing to take." Connor said. "And besides Annabeth thinks we're pranking Ares, there's no way in Hades she would even expect this."
"I guess you're right." I admitted.
"Can we get that in print?" Connor asked. "The Great Travis Stoll has just admitted to my rightness."
"I don't even know what to say to that…"
"I do!" Connor said before yelling, "HEY EVERYONE TRAVIS STOLL JUST ADMITTED TO MY RIGHTNESS."
PAGEBREAK
"So this is the greatly feared Athena Cabin." Connor said looking around from the doorway not stepping in.
"What are you doing?" I asked
"Surveying." He replied.
"Surveying what?" I asked, "It's pretty much a regular cabin."
"Exactly." He said before turning to me and saying, "I mean come on it's the Athena Cabin, I expected it to look well, wiser."
"Dude, we're talking about the kids, not their mom." I said.
"Okay." He said, and together simultaneously we stepped in and fell straight through the floor. I so should have seen that coming. Oh wait, I did.
PAGEBREAK
At the Pavilion where most everyone is eating breakfast No one's POV
"And that is a hundred and one reasons why planning a battle strategy is so much better than just charging into battle. Therefore Athena is better than Ares. The end." Annabeth said finishing up her speech.
"Thank Ares, I'm too bored to even try and argue with that." One of the Ares girls said shaking her sleeping brother awake.
A sudden beeping noise filled the air from Annabeth's pocket. She pulled out what looked like a miniature clicker, looked at it, looked over to Percy and nodded. The two of them jumped up and ran out of sight.
Percy's POV
"I can't believe we actually caught them" I said in disbelief shaking my head.
"What? You didn't think my plan would actually work?" Annabeth asked.
"No, I didn't doubt you for a second." I said hurriedly.
"Percy," Annabeth said
"Yeah?"
"You're a horrible liar." I truly would have responded had we not arrived at the scene of the crime.
PAGEBREAK
TRAVIS POV
As we fell I would have liked to say that I looked death in the eye and said "I'm not scared of you," the truth; I screamed like a little girl, for the two seconds we (Connor and Travis) were falling. Then we landed. Shocker!
I looked around we were in some big, deep water pit, I managed to surface to the top before looking around wildly for Connor.
"Connor? Where are you?" I yelled
"SHARKSSSSS! AHHHHHHHHHH!" A voice from behind me yelled.
"Connor?" I said whirling around to face my brother who was as white as a newly cleaned sheet.
"There… There… there are shh… shhaa… shaarrr… SHARKS! Dad help us! I swear I'll never play a prank again if you help me out of this Gods!" Connor yelled.
I looked down to the bottom of what seemed like a never endingless pit of evil. I probably would have screamed like a little girl who wanted a pink pony but a voice from above interrupted us.
"A day when Connor Stoll would no longer play pranks. Well I never, Can you believe that Annabeth?"
"Impossible Percy. Impossible." I looked up to see Annabeth and Percy standing at the top of the water pit doing their best (not succeeding) not to laugh.
"Please let us out!" Connor yelled.
"Well since we're nice I guess we could… Annabeth?" Percy said.
"You may be mister nice guy, but I'm not letting them out!" They're hazardous." She said.
"Oh well… Guess I tried. Sorry guys, it was nice knowing you." Percy said sighing turning to walk away.
"Percy, Annabeth," I said trying to keep my voice as calm as possible, well at least as calm as you can be with sharks swimming beneath you, "Puh-lease let us out!"
"Fine. Since you're begging, I guess." She said. "Hit it Perce."
Percy hit some button and the sharks vanished and the pool folded, bouncing us out of it, soon it was just a little fold up pool. Connor and I sitting side by side in the Athena cabin, soaking.
"What was that?" Connor asked.
Annabeth shrugged before replying, "A hologram, I figured you guys would try and prank us so I was prepared, Percy loaned me the pool and I just used a hologram projector for the sharks."
"How's that wise for you!" I said to Connor.
He shrugged, and said, "Well she is the Wisegirl, what did you expect?"
"Just get out." Annabeth said pointing to the door before adding, "You too Percy."
"What! I didn't do anything!" He protested.
"Yeah," she said, "but as your girlfriend I know your schedule so therefore I know you have archery next. Which you hate and for any reason no matter what the reason would love to skip."
"Fine." He grumbled before leaving.
"Now you two go, and Chiron will be hearing about this." She said defiantly.
"Aww. Damn it!" Connor said punching a wall; I just managed to see him slip the cubes onto the wall. One minute I thought recalling it from the book.
"Well," I said, "love to stay and chat but gotta run people to see places to prank." With that said I grabbed Travis and pulled him the heck out of there just as the other cabin members were entering.
We were about a foot out when shrieks pierced the air and clear as a bell Annabeth and Clarisse's voices rang out "TRAVIS CONNOR!"
"MY ARMOR!"
"SPIDERS! KILL THEM! TRAVIS AND CONNOR YOU ARE SO DEAD WHEN I ESCAPE THESE SPIDERS!"
I turned and high-fived Connor. "Good job bro!" I said and we turned and ran or at least until someone shouted my name.
"Travis, wait up!" I stopped since this person did not sound like they wanted to murder me. I turned it was Katie, the same Katie who had gotten me a super awesome video game, the same Katie who I talked about in my sleep, the same Katie who kissed me, the same Katie who well you get the point. Gods I hope this doesn't get too awkward.
"Hey Travis."
"Hey Katie…"
"Listen," she said, "about last night.."
"Umm yeah. What about last night?" So much for this not getting awkward, because this was getting very awkward, very fast.
