A/N Hey ! long time, no see. How are you all? So my birthday recently passed and this is my gift to you in the chapter there are my gifts for the big greeco roman family of Mr Riordan to whom goes my second biggest hug. The biggest goes to all the readers and commenters (Hopefully it is a word!) for their valuable input and support.

Chapter: 12 Gifts

Where we left the story...

Then her smile returned, and I figured I must have been mistaken. She ruffled my hair and went to make Gabe his seven-layer dip. I had nothing to do so I changed also and went to help her.

"Yum! If someone can cook better than Sally is Sally and Percy together! Oh, I am jealous of Gabe now!" Nico commented.

Nobody's pov

" Ok, everyone! I have a feeling that you all are hungry, aren't you?" Hestia asked. All the new demigods nodded. She waved a hand and several dishes appeared along with a row of plates. Everyone helped themselves with food and drinks. (A/N I am starting to feel hungry just by writing it.)

After the lunch break was over, everyone went back to their seats.

Suddenly the ball started to glow and moved in the middle of the room making all the gods and old demigods jump in alarm. Posiedon tried to shield Percy, who was trying to climb over him to see the object.

"Leo! What did you do now?" Piper asked exasperated and not at all impressed by his tricks. "It is not my fault. " He said looking closely at the ball. Then he howled and said "oh-yah someone is trying to contact us from the future. Most probably to tell everyone how awesome work I did on the ball!"

"No Leo I am not calling to tell you that and would you please mind removing the cover!" A metallic voice sounded. "Dad! " Leo huffed out and slide out the cover and lord Hephaestus came on screen.

Dear esteemed gods and demigods from the past,

It seems that two prankster gods stole my half-finished crystal ball and gave it to you. That was why it short-circuited so easily. It is the same reason I am taking it back and giving you one of my finished projects. It is called 'The glasses'. (A/N let's cut to the chase, I am not good with the names.) These will give you visual and audio information about anything you wish to know just by thinking about the question.

Hephaestus and Athena perked up at that making Aphrodite jealous.

I am warning you, Hermes and Apollo, you dare to destroy my 'glasses' and I will make sure Hera's history will repeat except this time with you both.

Those mentioned above gulped.

Lastly, you should thank Hephaestus cabin and Athena cabin, especially Leo, Andrew and his brother Malcolm for the designs and basic ... Ok Hera is yelling at me to stop talking.

Lady Athena and Lord Hephaestus looked proud of their kids. At the same time, Leo muttered under her breath " Wife of a drama queen!" Those who heard it tried hard not to smile.

After this message, the ball will disappear and in its place, there will be a box with glasses for all the old demigods and gods. If there is a problem, you can use Andrew and Leo s' help.

Thank you!

The ball disappeared and as said, there was a box of sunglasses with a hearing device like those in detective movies.

The gods and old demigods picked up each and with a bit of help from the future demigods they were able to use the device.

" Now, as the future people say let the party begin!" Apollo cheered. All the demigods cheered. With that, Lady Hera picked up the book and the reading began.

You didn't think the sneak peek was for this chapter, Did ya? Anyway, my midterms are here. So a bit of a delay in the next one. Also, the other story is on hold, sorry about that. Hopefully once the midterms end I would be able to do updates on a regular basis. Thank you. And you know the usual route. Like, comment and be happy!
