The Gods Play Truth or Dare! Chapter 3

(AN: I need help with truths and dares. Please send some in reviews. ~hopeful face~)

"Truth or Dare! Truth or Dare! Truth or Dare! Truth or Dare!" Nico, Thalia, Leo, Percy, Apollo, and Hermes chanted the next morning.

"Ugh, why do we have to? It makes me stressed out, and, believe me, nothing stressed out is beautiful," Aphrodite complained.

"You could learn who everyone likes!" Hermes suggested lamely.

"Alright, fine," Aphrodite sighed.

"Please, please, please, please," Leo was trying to convince his father, Hephaestus.

"Sure," the god of the forges could not resist his son's pleading.

"Dad, please!" Percy gave his father the baby seal eyes.

Poseidon chuckled proudly, and Percy got his answer.

Later, everyone moved to the throne room in order to play another round of Truth or Dare.

"Lady Hera!" Nico chose, "Truth or dare?"

"Truth,"

"How old were you when you married Zeus?" Nico asked.

"Oh, about 1,000," Hera guessed.

"How does she remember all that?" Percy was awe-struck.

"Water boy, it's an important age!" Piper stated.

"Hades," Hera decided. "Truth or dare?"

"Dare,"

"Go outside the throne room and yell: I am Hades, and I like Persephone!" Hera smirked.

Hermes turned his video-camera on.

Outside, with many nymphs and minor gods watching, the lord or the Underworld yelled. "I am Hades, and I like Persephone!"

There were no one outside that was not weirded out.

"Percy," Hades stated. "Truth or dare?"

"Truth,"

"Does lady Amphitrite like you?" Hades asked.

"Hades, no," Percy looked rather disgusted.

"Don't use my name as a curse word!" Hades cried.

"Hazel, truth or dare?" Percy asked.

"Truth?" Hazel was scared, so the answer came out as a question.

"Please explain to us the time you were most humiliated." Percy grinned.

"Well, I was on the quest with you and Frank, and it was when we had to wash off all the mud from the muskeg," Hazel looked embarrassed.

"What muskeg?" Hades, Poseidon, Annabeth, and Nico screamed in alarm.

"The muskeg Percy fell into," Hazel got the I'll-kill-you-later stare.

"It was scary," Frank added.

"It was humiliating. How did this truth backfire?" Percy whined. "Why? Why? The Fates are so cruel!"

"Yes, yes they are," Nico agreed.

"Nico, truth or dare?" Hazel had on her I'm-innocent look.

"Dare,"

"Eat a tablespoon of ketchup," Hazel smirked.

"Ew! How could you, Hazel? Nobody knows that I hate ketchup!" Nico complained.

"Yes, yes I do," Percy agreed.

"Seaweed brain," Annabeth hit her boyfriend over the head.

Demeter came over with a tablespoon fill with ketchup, "Here you go!" the goddess handed Nico the tablespoon.

"On this corner, we have Nico di Angelo, the son of Hades! The Ghost King! The ambassador of Pluto! The survivor of Tartarus! And on the other corner, we have Ketchup. Made from tomatoes, Nico's worst enemy!" Leo announced.

"Who will win?" Thalia asked mysteriously.

The gods and the Romans looked amused.

"How can they be so childish?" Jason asked.

"That question remains to be unanswered." Frank sighed.

"Come on! Just think about the tomatoes in it!" Demeter encouraged.

"I hate tomatoes!" Nico said angrily. (AN: I modeled this dare after my tastes. I hate tomatoes.)

"Nico," Annabeth instructed. "Hold your breath while it's in your mouth."

"Ingenious! If you hold your breath, most of the flavor will recede!" Athena smiled at her daughter.

"Recede? What does that mean?" Apollo looked confused.

"Recede: It's a verb that means: to move back, to retreat, to withdraw." Athena stated.

"Okay," Apollo nodded.

Nico held the tablespoon up to his mouth, and, with a deep breath, shoved it in his mouth. Then, he doubled over.

"Help!" the son of Hades yelped dramatically. "The light...It's fading from my eyes!"

"Come on! So immature..." Jason sighed.

"Sure," Hazel stated. "That's my brother you're talking about there."

"Sorry, Hazel," Jason said instantly.

"It's okay; I think he's immature as well," Hazel laughed.

"That was a horrible deed," Nico pouted.

"Dad!" Nico yelled. "Truth or dare?!"

"Dare!" Hades yelled back.

"Tie Hermes' shoes together!" Nico whispered in his dad's ear.

Before Hades went on with this daring task, he suited up with layers of protection. Meaning: the Helm of Darkness.

An invisible force messed with Hermes' shoe laces, and, of course, the messenger god did not notice.

"Demeter," Hades chose, "Truth or dare?"

"Truth,"

"Who's your favorite demigod daughter?" Hades asked.

"Katie," Demeter stated.

Down on Camp Half-Blood, the entire Demeter cabin, except Katie, felt offended for some unknown reason.

"Ares," Demeter decided, "Truth or dare?"

"Dare,"

"I dare you to work on your threats," Demeter chose.

"You dare," Ares threatened.

"Seriously! Find a new threat! That ones not scary!" Hephaestus was oblivious to Leo, who was freaking out.

Ares grumbled a bit. "You're going to pay for that,"

"Better," Demeter approved of.

"Poseidon," Aphrodite said. "Truth or dare?"

"Truth,"

"What happened with Anateus and Gaea?" Aphrodite asked.

"Yeah, I wanna know that too!" Percy stated. "I do not appreciate having Gaea as a stepmom!"

"Want to! Want to!" Athena yelled.

"Gaea...Your...Stepmom?" All of the demigod's were choking on their own tongues.

"You have a weird family tree!" Jason hacked.

"Jee, what made you think that?" Percy said sarcastically.

"Sciron, Anateus, Triton, Tyson, etc." Jason smiled, as if that made perfect sense.

"What's wrong with Tyson?" Percy got defensive.

"N-Nothing!" Jason put his hands up, but, for some reason, he glanced at Nico.

"Well, Gaea...um...Used-her-mystical-powers-to-make-me-go-with-her!" Poseidon said extremely fast.

"What?" Apollo asked.

"Shut up!" Artemis continued to sit quietly.

"Never mind." Poseidon sighed.

That was when a bright light filled the room.

Dun, dun, dun! I love writing cliffhangers! Although, I never liked it when there was no chapter after it, so I'll try to update as soon as possible! And please, I MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE if I don't get many reviews that have suggested truths and dares. My mind has a limited amount of truths and dares! Also, please check out my profile!

Hint for the next chapter...

A dare WILL be to say "Would you like fries with that?" after every sentence!
