Hey, Finally got the characters I need to go on. I will need more in the future, but I will tell when it will happen. Also, I am so sorry you had to wait so long for this, but I have a good excuse, Finals are a pain in the ass. So sorry for the extremely long wait.

I don't own anything of Rick Riordan's or any of the OC's that were given to me. The credit for the characters go to JackSonofEberus and Khaos Risen. Other wise everything else is my own. Now that that necessary evil is out of the way, on with the story!

Previously on ZoO:

"We all know what is at stake, and we are willing to help you even if it means some people will hate our guts. Besides, they already are after us." Chris asserts, and a pair of nods in agreement come from his twin siblings.

"Good, now, let's get busy." I proclaim.

And Now:

I wipe the sweat from my brow as I look at our progress with setting up camp for now till we get a building up for us all to live in. I know, a bunch of teenage/young adult Demigods in one building, recipe for disaster. In this case, no. Turns out, Apollo, being mostly awesome, came and visited his son, the kid I didn't know.

His name is Adam Sonne, and he is a part of my fan base, which I had no idea existed till he told me. The is about fourteen, give or take a few months older. The sandy blond boy also was a great healer, proven when he patched up the band of surviving Fanatics who tried to kill me.

Back to the task at hand, We just set up a oval like ring around a pair of picnic tables and a fair sized bonfire, courtesy of a certain hearth goddess, but we only had had 9 tents, not including the storage tent. And that leaves us here, with our current dilemma.

"We should get two people per tent" Says Katie.

"Thats nice and dandy, but who is sleeping in the same tent as who?" Inquires Thalia, one of the only ones of us that knew how to put up a tent, with Chris, Malcolm, and Nico being the others who did know.

"How about this, The twins will have a tent, Chris and Adam will be in another, Thalia and Clarisse, Tyson and Leo, Malcolm and Nico, Katie and Calypso, and the other two will get the last one." I list off, trying to stop a fight before it started.

"Uh, you may want do it like this," Says Thalia who is shaking her head in disappointment "Percy and Nico will share the first, Clarisse and Skylar will get the second, Leo and Malcolm will get the third, Katie and Calypso will get the fourth, the Twins will get the fifth, Tyson and Theseus will have the sixth, Chris and Adam will have the seventh, and I'll have the last one."

"Wait, why do you get a tent all to yourself." Growls Nico.

"Because I was a hunter of Artemis, and I am not comfortable with anyone in the same room as me besides her cabin." She retorts, obviously vexed.

Wait, where the hell are these big words coming from that are just popping into my mind?

"Hold on, who are Skylar and Theseus?" I ask, because I don't know who the hell they are to be honest.

"That would be us, and who is asking?" Comes a male voice. I turn and see a pair of half bloods walking up to us with pegasus. One is a female with long, messy brown hair and bright blue eyes and the other is a guy with sandy-blonde hair and storm grey eyes. Both are wearing a Camp Half Blood shirt, but the boy is wearing dark grey cargo shorts, the girl is wearing a pair of worn jeans.

"Hey, I'm Percy. Nice to meet you both." I greet, extending my hand for them to shake it. The girl, who I assume is Skylar, shakes my hand and grins in a way that only children of Hermes can. I check for my wallet in my back pocket after she goes to our campfire. The guy shakes my hand in more firm and formal manner, and give me a nod of acknowledgment. As soon as I shook his hand, I turned to the others.

"Ok… So now we are all here." I state.

"Thanks for stating the obvious, Captain Obvious." Comes a sarcastic remark from Thalia. I see Theseus crack a grin at that, but remains relatively silent.

"Yeah yeah yeah, whatever lightning bug. So… First order of business in the morning is to get us a real building up and running for us to sleep and live in, because let's face it, I don't think I am the only one who wants to have to camp in a tent while building this thing. Now, Hephaestus has given us a few construction tools, but is working on other major projects to do much else, and Athena gave use most, if not all, of Annabeth's blueprints and sketches, including Daedalus Laptop which not only contains her works but all of Daedalus' works as well, but is also unable to help us. Now, We don't have much support from the gods, but we still have one ace up our sleeves. A certain goddess who tolerates me has given us some targets and has been hired to track them down and help us capture the monsters we need from the wild. However Artemis has refused to bring her Hunters here unless it is urgent or we have a proper set up with a separate area for them to stay and we have exhibits and such around here. But we are responsible for getting all our materials to build structures and supply our own food. Hephaestus has decided to supply us with special net guns to capture some weaker monsters. However… We are not going to put Cyclops," Tyson shutters "or anything humanoid into enclosures for obvious reasons, but they can join us. So we are on our own after that." I breath out after my long speech, which was slightly unnecessary.

"Quick Question," Says Clarisse, "You still got that infinited cash card, right?"

I sigh and hold up the card that now has a few hole in it. "It's no longer valid. So I am now back down to the cash I stored up just in case this happened, which is not enough to even get Cabin 16 fixed." I mutter, shaking my head.

Then a woman coughs behind me and I turn to see an Iris message with an amused goddess of the hunt who looks like she is debating on wether or not she will turn me into a jackalope.

That's all I got for you now. I need to finish up my finals and I need a few ideas on how to go on. I'm going to leave it up to you guys to decide on what they are going to do with the monsters when they catch them. I am thinking something like a Jurassic park style of containment for the bigger monsters but I need your guys input or this will not go far for very long. I will not end it, but if I don't get any feedback, the updates will be almost nonexistent. Other than that, enjoy this and please for the love of god, give me feedback and suggestions!
