maddog5378 this is the scene. This is it. This is the scene. maddog5378 and I have been planning this chapter forever

There is Percabeth in this chapter, I personally don't care much for percabeth, but it fits into the story.

Quistion of the day: what's your opinion on Percabeth?

Alex's POV

"Where are the snacks?" Luke asked.

I looked up from my coffee and found Luke rummaging through the cabinets.

Despite having magical plates we can only use them three times a day, so we have snack for all the other times.

"All we have left are cheezits," Luke proclaimed.

"Fine, we'll go shopping later today," I mumbled. I was tired today, I had met up with Nico again last night now that he's better.

"Are you okay?" Luke asked.

"Yeah, just tired, that's all,"

" where's everyone else?" he inquired.

"Silena said she, Bianca, and Zoë were going shopping on Olympus for clothes, Charles is probably at the forge. " I explained.

"Then lets go shopping now," he whined.

"You sound like a baby," I noted. "Lukey Pukey,"

"Oh, shh. What is it Bianca's brother calls you? Your royal ass, something like that."

I winced," Bianca's brother has a name, it's Nico, and he calls me Your royal Jerkness,". I said bitterly.

"Well, your royal Jerkness let's go shopping."

"Don't call me that," I said hotly. Only Nico can call me that, I thought hastily.

Luke looked taken aback," I'm sorry," he said unsure what he was apologizing for.

I dismissed his apology," Fine,we'll go shopping," I said unenthusiastic.

"Good. I'll grab my jacket," Luke said happily. I took the final sips from my coffee and walked across the room to grab my military jacket.

Annabeth POV ( A/N: weren't excpecting that now were you)

I am annoyed with my cabin. Yet happy too. We won the war games, where we're all separated by cabins and have to fight. We won, of course.

But to celebrate they're making me pick up some soda and pizza. So here I am at the grocery store.

I heard my name being called and I whirled around, my hand inching toward my dagger.

"Woah, wise girl," it was Percy. "It's just me,"

"Oh. What are you doing here?" I asked, relaxed.

"Running errands for my mom." he responded, eyeing a crumpled up paper.

"Cool, we won the war games," I explained.

He wore a confused look," War games? Like the ones they have in the summer,"

"Yeah, I wish you came to camp year round," I said solemnly. We walked side by side, our carts pushing against each other.

Percy holted, pausing infront of a container of blue cookies.

"Bask in their delicious-ness," he mumbled, raising his hands out.

"Oy, seaweed brain," I said, face palming.
