Set after The Titan's Curse

Percy POV

I was sitting with Annabeth in what used to be Thalia's tree. Today was October 30st - almost Halloween! I had been excited for weeks, thinking about all the candy and costumes. Even though the costumes don't scare me. Hades, when you've seen as much as I have, hardly anything mortal-made does.

There was only one problem with my plan - Annabeth wouldn't let me go trick-or-treating.

"Please Wise Girl… Pretty please with a Percy on top?" I begged. pouting.

She glared at me. "NO, Percy! You're too old, it's too dangerous, and I don't have a costume!" she exclaimed.

I pouted, silently pleading with her. She sighed, and I internally screamed YES! I knew she couldn't resist the pout!

"Whatever, Seaweed Brain." She grumbled. "But under some conditions. One, you do it to the cabins, not outside camp. Two, you get my costume. And finally," she said, starting to smirk, "I get to do your face paint."

Uh oh. I was in big trouble now. Annabeth couldn't apply makeup to save her life.

But I still wanted candy.

Annabeth-doing-my-face-paint, candy, Annabeth-doing-my-face-paint, candy… candy wins.

I sighed. "Fine."

_Time skip to the next night_

"Are you almost done?" I moaned. I had been sitting in the Poseidon cabin for hours, having Annabeth study my face as she pulled colours after colours out of a bag. My ADHD wasn't helping.

"Almost!" she replied frustratedly. "A little more grey and… done!"

I rushed over to the mirror excitedly, but then my face fell. I had a blotch of green here, a smudge of grey there…

"Am I a… zombie?" I questioned. Annabeth looked at me in confusion.

"No Seaweed Brain, you're a mouldy owl. OF COURSE YOU'RE A ZOMBIE!"

"Oh… OK." I muttered. But then I had an idea. "Give me the red face paint!" I exclaimed. Annabeth looked at me strangely, then handed over the crimson dye. I took and dumped it in my hair.

"What was that for… Seaweed… Brain…" Annabeth trailed off. I turned around and smiled at the mirror. Now, my skin was tinted a greeny-gray, with red blood-like paint trickling down the sides of my head. I don't know what in particular I was, but I did know that anyone - even one son of Hades - would run from me.

"Let's go Annabeth, come on, come on!" I couldn't wait. I flew out of my cabin, only stopping to grab my jack-o-lantern and candy basket.

_Time skip an hour forwards_

I rattled my basket happily. It was almost full to the brim! The Aphrodite girls in particular had been especially generous…

I frowned in confusion, then wiped it off my face. We now only had one cabin to go! The Hermes cabin!

Annabeth and I walked up to the simple wooden door and knocked frantically. The door creaked open to reveal…

A whole basket of candy, just sitting there? No way!

I reached down to pick it up. My hand closed around the handle as Annabeth yelped "No Percy! It's probably a trap!"

But it was too late. As I pulled the basket up, a thin string broke. Decorations tumbled from the ceiling, including cardboard bats, witches, and…

Oh Hades. Spiders. Annabeth stiffened.

I quickly put the basket down. The decorations were drawn up again, and Annabeth relaxed. Then tensed angrily.

The Stolls were in for it now. I did NOT want to meet a frightened, angry, tired, hyperactive, spider-phobic daughter of Athena.

I just hope to see them alive tomorrow.
