The Gods Play Truth or Dare! Chapter 9

I'm sorry about the late updates, guys. July is an extremely busy month. I own nothing.

Percy drew his sword with a shink.

The Minotaur roared.

"Hmm, maybe the third times a charm, ugly?" Percy called.

That was when the monster finally charged.

Flashbacks to when Percy was twelve filled his mind. His mom almost dying...

No, don't think about that, Percy ordered.

But what if I want to? his brain countered.

Do it later, Percy commanded.

But I want to do it now, the brain complained.

Later, Percy almost shouted.

Now! the brain fought.

That was when the son of the sea god jumped. On the Minotaur's head. I know, great idea.

The bull man tried to shake the sea spawn off. But Percy already had hold of his horns...

"Wait! I wanna play Truth or Dare!" that came from...the Minotaur.

Percy's eyebrow arched as he slowly got off of the Minotaur. "Did you just talk?"

"Just because I'm a monster doesn't mean I can't talk," the monster explained angrily.

"Okay," the son of the sea god nodded his head slowly.

Almost all of the gods then entered the throne room.

"Woah! Monster! I wanna kill it!" Ares roared.

Athena said nothing, just twirled her hair.

"He wants to play with us!" Percy, Leo, Nico, and Thalia nodded, their faces looked like their dream just came true.

Let's just say the their parents raised an eyebrow at them.

"Immature," Frank face-palmed.

"Please," the Minotaur pleaded.

All the other gods present raised their eyebrows.

"Since when could you talk?" Athena asked bluntly.

"Just because I'm a monster doesn't mean I can't talk!" the monster whined. "I swear on the river Styx that I will not hurt any of you guys here."

Thunder boomed.

"We can let him play," Athena smiled, twirling her hair.

"I still wanna kill it," Ares growled.

"Too bad, so sad," Athena actually went up and hugged the monster.

"There's something wrong with her." Percy said in a really loud whisper to Nico. "I'll distract them while you run."

"Hi, Athena," Percy smiled "How are you?" he said this really slowly.

"Good!"

Gasps were heard. Did Athena just use improper grammar?

"Why aren't you running?" Percy whispered when he turned his head.

Nico took his chance. He ran off.

"Anyways," Poseidon shuddered. "Truth or dare, Hera?"

"Truth,"

"Wimp," Ares coughed.

"Have you got something stuck in your throat?" Rachel asked.

Ares glared at her.

"What's the meanest thing you've ever done?" Poseidon asked.

"Um, well, that would probably be throwing Hephaestus off of Olympus," Hera frowned.

Leo had a look on his face that read It better,

"Truth or dare, Minotaur?" Zeus asked.

"Truth," it grunted.

"Wimp!" Ares didn't bother coughing.

"What's your favorite type of diapers?" the lord of the skies asked the monster.

"What type of a question is that?" Leo rolled on the floor, laughing.

Boys, Artemis thought.

"Um," the Minotaur thought, "Pampers,"

"What?" Leo tried to get himself together.

"That's really your favorite?" Thalia collapsed on the ground, laughing.

"Sit up before I gut you," Piper narrowed her eyes.

"Truth or dare, Piper?" Clarisse asked.

"Dare,"

"Finally!" Ares put his hands up.

"Call someone you have wronged in your past and apologize to them." Clarisse gave a dare that was, un-Clarisse like.

Piper took Annabeth's phone. Once she dialed she said "Look, I'm sorry I stole your BMW..."

The Minotaur perked at the mention of 'stole'.

"Wait a sec," Piper turned to Percy, "He wants to talk to you,"

"What did I do?" Percy took the phone, "You're gonna die," he hung up.

"What was that about?" Jason asked.

"Something about blowing up a bus four years ago." the son of the sea smiled as if it was nothing.

"Okay," Jason thought Percy was being rather immature.

"Truth or dare, Thalia?" Artemis asked.

"Dare,"

"Respond to every Truth or dare with 'You bet, Governor,' for the next five rounds," the moon goddess smiled.

"You bet, Governor," Thalia saluted.

"Truth or dare, Hades?" Zeus asked.

"Truth,"

"Have you ever dreamed of being a princess?" Zeus looked innocent.

"You bet, Governor," Thalia smiled.

"Yes." Hades was being awfully quiet.

Laughter roared through the throne room.

"Was she in a sparkly dress?" Leo asked.

"Yes," Hades blushed.

"Truth or dare, Aphrodite?" Piper asked.

"Dare,"

"Put make up on someone without your hands." Piper dared.

"You bet, Governor,"

Aphrodite smiled at her daughter. Took the lipstick between her teeth, and proceeded to apply make up to Ares' face.

"Get off," Ares growled.

He then flashed the make up off. Again.

"Truth or dare, Hephaestus?" Hades asked.

"Truth,"

"What's your favorite type of cereal?" the lord of the Underworld smirked.

"You bet, Governor,"

Demeter perked up.

"...Corn Flakes..." the forge god mumbled.

"Yes!" Demeter smiled.

"Truth or dare, Hazel?" Percy asked.

"Truth,"

"Have you ever heard of Disney?" the son of the sea god inquired.

"You bet, Governor,"

"Of course!" Hazel snapped.

"Sure," Percy didn't believe her.

"Truth or dare," Leo spun around dramatically. "Nico," he pointed at the boy sitting in the shadows.

"Truth,"

"Do you like anyone?" the son of Hephaestus asked.

"..."

Jason stared at them.

Nico could not find a way to speak.

"You bet, Governor," Thalia face-palmed herself.

"..."

Chaos broke out.
