Well, we didn't get to 80 reviews but oh well. I still have tons, but I REALLY hope that chapter was somewhat decent, so can we get to 80 this chapter?

LETS TRY!

Enjoy!

RECAP TIME!

Katie pulled away awkwardly blushing, but she looked away almost upset, I probably looked the same way. I turned to face who had yelled my name and saw, well who else would I expect, Connor, his date and who else because the party wouldn't be complete without her, Kaitlyn. Yay.

"What are you doing?" I asked mostly Connor but Kaitlyn responded.

"I think the question here is, what are you doing?" she said.

"I is having a dance with Katie, and I is-was- also having a good time." I replied smart alecky like.

"Well, you're not supposed tto be having a good time with her, you're supposed to be having a good time with me!" She exclaimed.

I was about to reply when Katie beat me to it, "Jealous much?" she asked.

I would have expected Kaitlyn to fire back with some snarky comment at Katie insulting her, what I did not expect though was Kaitlyn to full fledge tackle Katie to the ground.

"Ahh!" Katie yelled in surprise.

"Chick Fight!" Connor yelled.

"Connor!" I yelled.

"Get off of me!" Katie yelled, I looked around at the growing crowd gathering.

"Umm, guys maybe you should break it up…" I said standing off to the side.

"Travis," Katie said.

"Yeah." I replied.

"How about instead of standing off to the side trying to be invisible, you help me out here?" Katie asked trying to pry Kaitlyn off of her.

"Nah, I'm good." I said only half jokingly, I mean seriously Kaitlyn looked pissed and my face did not need any damage done.

"Travis." Katie said, coldly no humor in her voice.

"Alrighty then." I said, I mean as scared as I was of Katie, I'm probably more scared of Katie.

I walked over and lifted Kaitlyn up off of Katie, and handed her to Connor who held her kicking form as far away from him as possible. I kind of regretted giving her to Connor, but oh well. I looked back to see Kaitlyn take a swipe at Connor's face, it left a decently sized cut in the middle of his forehead. On second thought, it could be his revenge. I mean it would save me from hitting him with a bazillion of pillows after all. Ah, this would be fun to watch, Connor getting beat up by a girl, I couldn't wait to tease him.

"TRAVIS!" Gods what now? Am I really that awesome that everyone needs to yell my name?

BREAK

I turned around to see who had yelled my name and saw Chase, a son of Aphrodite who I do very much dislike, charging and pushing through the crowds making his way toward me. And he did not look happy. I was half tempted to run and hide because an angry son or daughter of Aphrodite is not anyone you want to reckon with. At least when they're mad, themn its ehhh, just don't insult them about their designer stuff. I learned that the hard way. But then I thought of Katie, and figured it wouldn't look very manly if I turned around and ran. So I stood my ground. Best mistake Ever. I could get revenge later.

"Travis!" He cried, outraged, "How could you pick up a girl like…like..like" he stumbled trying to find the right word.

"Sphinx got your tongue?" I asked him, a smirk upon my face.

"Like, like a sandbag?" He said(still outraged)

"Because she was beating up my date here! Is that a good enough reason for you?" Now I was the one getting a little pissed.

"No reason is ever good enough." He said firmly, I was so absorbed in the argument I didn't even feel the sharp sting in my arm until it was too late. I felt the ground sway underneath me and I fell on top of someone, but I didn't have the energy to see who. I could hear people shouting, but it just felt far away and echoy. Then everything went dark.

BREAK

I was having an awesome dream. In it I was standing next to Thalia's tree with my arm around Katie. She was talking to me but I couldn't understand what she was saying, so I kept on nodding. Our hands were joined as we watched the sun set over the Sound. She turned to me and looked me in the eyes, we leaned forward and just as she was about to kiss me, SMACK.

"Wake up idiot!" Someone smacked me again. Hard.

"Ouch!" I yelled and sat up fast, hitting my head on Katie's. This caused a simultaneous,

"OUCH!"

"Watch it Stoll." She muttered, but she looked greatly relieved to see me alive and breathing again.

"What happened?" I asked groggily.

"Well." She started. "Melanie, Kaitlyn's sister and Connor's date, came up behind you and stabbed you with some drug they keep in the infirmary to calm injured kids down; she's a daughter of Apollo so she has access to stuff like that. Plus she knew where to hit you so that you wouldn't feel anything until the last possible moment. They got Chase to help out because; well Chase has a 'thing' for Kaitlyn so she 'convinced' him to help out by distracting you. But see I don't think everything went according to plan."

"You don't?" I asked, "Why?"

"Because I think that the drug was meant to be used on me so that Kaitlyn could dance with you."

"Oh." I said, "So basically we need a plan to get back at them for ruining or night." I wiggled my eyebrows suggestively at her.

"Eew! Gross no!" Katie screamed.

"Not like that!" I protested. "I meant like pranks and that kind of stuff, yeah not that. In fact I wasn't even thinking about that, you have a very perverted little mind Katie." I said smirking at her.

"Shut up Travis, or I won't help you." She said.

"You'll do it?" I said shocked.

"Yes." She said, "I know I'll regret it but let's go."

"First order of business, we must find Connor." I said.

BREAK

"Alrighty," Connor said, "you want me to pull a prank on my own girlfriend? That's just cruel bro, cruel." He shook his head in mock disappointment.

"So you won't do it?" I said, Katie held her breath beside me.

"Are you kidding?" He said. "Of course I'll do it, she'll be my 201th girlfriend to put on the list, Gods finally that list was starting to look small on the wall in the prank cave, plus I was planning on dumping her tomorrow with plan 24, ya know bro the one with the chili cheese and stuff, now I just get to make it a day early."

"Great." I said.

"I don't know what's sadder." Katie said, "That you have a list of every girl you've dated hanging up or the fact that you have plans on how to dump girls."

"203 of them (plans)." Connor said proudly, head held high, "and it's still growing."

Katie sighed and shook her head; I decided to change the subject.

"So Connor, where's the book?" I asked.

"What book?" Katie asked suspiciously, eyeing Connor and me.

"Well," I said, "it's kind of a long story."

"I have the time." She replied.

"Maybe you do." Connor said flipping through the book, "But we most certainly do not, if we're going to strike on Apollo tonight, we have to go. Now."

"What's it say?" I asked.

Connor tossed the book to me, hitting me square in the eye.

"Ouch!" I said, dropping the book and applying my hand to my eye.

"Sorry." Connor said, though he didn't sound very sorry.

I groaned, I could tell that it was going to leave a mark. I bent over and picked the book up and began to read.

Pranking Apollo

What does Apollo do for a living? He pulls the sun. Therefore his kids love the sun, and well basically speaking, live to see it. Kind of like Phaethon, but he drove the chariot which Apollo never lets his kids drive anymore because of him. But the sun is their watch; it tells them everything they feel they need to know. Like when it's time to wake, yoga time, breakfast time, instrument practice and etcetera. Without the sun, life is strange, which is why you hardly see a son or daughter of Apollo out at night. Especially if Apollo and Artemis have just had one of their infamous 'squabbles'.

So the prank: It's best if you do this at night when they sleep.

Retrieve two or three bottles of black spray paint from the attached pocket.

Creep to their windows and paint them black until nothing shines in, and the possibility of seeing out is zero. Prank completed.

"So the only thing I have against this," Connor was saying when I looked up, "is that you can't see in because, seriously some of those Apollo girls are HOT, H-O-T."

"Connor, are you this annoying all the time? Or is it pre-prank jitters?" Katie asked.

"Puh-lease. Like I would get nervous about pranking! If anything I get adrenaline rushes." Connor replied.

I fumbled with pulling the spray paint out of the book. They continued to debate.

"Got it!" I said.

"Got what?" Katie asked then she focused on the paint in my hands. "Travis, did .

"Got what?" Katie asked then she focused on the paint in my hands. "Travis, did you just pull that out of the book." She looked very interested; unfortunately we couldn't just trust Katie, yet.

"No." I lied.

"Then why'd you just pull that out of the book." She looked very interested, unfortunately we couldn't just trust Katie, yet.

"No." I lied.

"Then why'd you say 'got it!'" she asked

"Because…because." I stumbled trying to come up with something; my mind was drawing a blank.

"Because," Connor stepped in, "it was stuck behind the bed and he couldn't pull them out. He was stumbling over his words because e didn't want to look un-macho in front of you." Katie still looked suspicious but she seemed to accept the answer. I breathed in relief.

"So what are we doing?" she asked.

"We are spray painting the Apollo cabin's windows black, so they can't see out and no one can see in. Which is what Connor here was complaining about."

"Okay, so can we do this because I don't know about you, but I'm getting tired. So let's go." She walked out the door, we followed.

BREAK

"Let's do this!" Connor yelled/whispered.

I got out my paint and can and shook it up till I was sure it was mixed, then I began to spray. I sprayed like I had never sprayed before. I coated every inch of the glass window in black. The best part was that no one woke up and noticed. I couldn't wait to see their reactions tomorrow.

I walked over to Katie who was still spraying her window. "How goes it?" I asked.

"If Annabeth were here she would yell at you for using incorrect grammar." Katie scolded.

"But she's not." I replied, "So again I ask, How goes it?"

"It goes fine, but your eye doesn't look to great. It looks swollen and its turning purple. Are you sure it's alright?"

"Yeah." I lied waving her off. The truth; it hurt like Hades.

"Alright, just watch it. It already damages your good looks enough." She teased.

"I knew it! You do know I have good looks and you don't keep your head in the garden always!"

"You want to go there Stoll?"

"GUYS!" Connor hissed. "Shut up and stop flirting! It's making me sick!"

"Love you too bro!" I joked.

"Come on." Katie said looking around nervously. "We should go, they won't sleep forever."

"Fine." Connor said grudgingly. "But you are not the new 'in control' person for our missions. This was a onetime deal only!"

"Two time, actually." I interrupted. They both looked at me in shock. "What? Don't we have to get back at Chase for being in on the plan too?"

"I guess so." Connor said and Katie nodded.

"But what are we going to do to them?" Katie asked me. Connor looked on curiously at me.

"I have a plan." I announced. "And it is sheer genius."

Now they looked worried. My plans can't be that bad!

No Travis you're plans aren't bad. They're horrible. Watch out Aphrodite Cabin! You're next!

So what did you think of this chapter? I quite like it. Next chapter you get to see the Apollo Cabin's reactions and their prank on Aphrodite. Remember to keep voting on my poll to decide who to prank next.

Until next time!

Rain-clouds, thunder, and lightning, (Can you tell it's raining near me?)
