A/N- Yay! A real update just like I promised! I was actually running out of ideas, until I reread the books and BOOM it was like I couldn't stop ideas from flowing out. So who else is excited for the HoH? Only 5 days people! Well that's it i guess.

Disclaimer- I don't own PJO or HoO or any of the characters except my OC's

Ellie POV

Oh. My. Gods. I'm hugging Leo. Leo is hugging me. He pulled back and cleared his throat. Well this is awkward. Gods Ellie why'd you have to hug him? Couldn't you just have patted his back and said thanks?

"We should be getting to the campfire, your brother is going to cause a tsunami if you don't go back." He said. Could Percy actually cause a tsunami? I mean he had his moments, but I don't think he'd actually be capable of that.

"Well we wouldn't want that now would we? By the way what did you mean when you said that you set fire to the warehouse?" I asked. I mean he wouldn't set fire to the warehouse on purpose, so how'd he do it?

"I can, um, I can create fire." He extended his palm out in front of me and made a flame dance around his hand.

"Whoa, that's so cool! I can do that with water, but I mean I can't make it appear randomly!" That was seriously the coolest thing ever!

"Yeah, I guess it's pretty cool." He said bashfully.

"Pretty cool? No, that is freakin' awesome!" I jumped up and down and looked at his hand from all angles to make sure I wasn't being punk'd.

"Alright, it is pretty amazing. Now let's go." He said grabbing my hand. I laced our fingers together on instinct and pulled him along.

"Come one! Skip with me!" I said enthusiastically. Was I being awkward? Was this a normal thing to do with people you just met? I don't do well in these types of situations!

"You and I are going to be best friends, Leo, I can tell." I said. It was as if we had just clicked in an instant. I've only just met him, but it feels like we've been friends for a million years.

Percy's POV

"Don't feel bad, this is just her way of coping with the news." Annabeth said trying to comfort me.

"I feel like I've failed her. I was supposed to be there for her and I wasn't." I groaned. Stupid. Stupid Percy.

"My gods Percy you whine a lot. Ellie is ok now, I mean she and Leo hit it off as you can see." She said, pointing to Ellie and Leo who were coming their way. The pair was laughing like there was no tomorrow.

"That's even worse!" I exclaimed.

As they got closer I could hear what they were talking about. It was something about whether or not unicorns existed. Typical.

"Hey Perce," Ellie said.

"You feeling better El?" asked Annabeth.

"Much, Leo is hilarious. I'd tell you what he said, but you wouldn't get it." She replied. Ellie turned to Leo and they both started laughing.

"Oh sorry, inside joke." Leo explained. Inside joke? They just met each other! How in the world did they already have inside jokes?

"Ok? Uh I think we should get going, we're missing precious eating time people." I said.

Ellie's POV

My stomach growled very loudly as soon as Percy mentioned food. I felt my face getting warm and I looked down.

"Well sounds like you're hungry so lets go get you some food." Annabeth said, smiling.

As soon as we got to mess hall Annabeth and Leo went their separate ways.

"Hey, why are they leaving?" I asked.

"Oh, each cabin has their own table and we're not allowed to sit at another cabins table." Percy explained.

"Well that sucks."

"Mhm now lets go sit." He said. He handed me a plate, silverware and a glass cup.

"Wait, where's the food?" What was I supposed to eat? Air?

"The plate and cup are magic, just think of what you want to eat and it'll appear." He said nonchalantly.

While my brother dearest was living the life this whole time, i was stuck with gross food. Totally not fair.

"Oh and you have to dump part of your food in the fire as an offering to your godly parent. The gods don't eat, but they like the smell.

I walked up to the fire and muttered, "Well here's your food inconsiderate parent who hasn't claimed me yet."

After dinner was the campfire, which consists of terribly annoying and peppy songs about the Greek gods. The Apollo kids were really good singers which made the campfire a bit more bearable.

Chiron got up onto the stage as soon as the song was over and cleared his throat.

"Hello campers, I'd like to introduce the new campers at this time. So would all of the new campers please come up?" My heart dropped and my palms started sweating. And there goes my anxiety. I got up along with another girl who seemed as confident as ever. We made our way through the crowed and had to go up stairs and onto the stage. Don't trip Ellie, for the love of all that is covered in chocolate do not trip.

As soon as we got up on the stage the chick got some weird thing above her head.

"All hail, Britney Whittmore, daughter of Aphrodite." People clapped and she looked smug. That little shit.

I stood there awkwardly rocking back and forth when suddenly everyone gasped.

"All hail, Eliana Jackson, Daughter of Poseidon, Lord of the sea and earthquakes!" I looked up and this blue trident was glowing above my head. People were kneeling down, some still open mouthed.

"There's something behind me isn't there?"

"Hello daughter, that was quite rude to call me inconsiderate wasn't it?"

"Oh shit."
