For Us Demigods

Crime Fighting and Relationships

"Many tongues?" The demigods asked.

"Yes." Mr. Riordan said. "The girl who seemed to charm the men. I believe she was speaking French."

"Do you understand French, Mr. Riordan?" Piper winced.

"Quite a bit." Mr. Riordan said. "The boy who traveled through shadows. I believe he swore in Italian. So did the girl who control water. I believe their letters were Ι and Κ. Iota and Kappa."

"She swore?" Percy asked. "Are you sure?"

"Yes." Mr. Riordan said. "Even the leader seemed to spout a few curses in Greek."

Annabeth pinched Percy's arm. He pouted, as Annabeth glared at him. He rubbed it, before poking Annabeth's shoulder.

"Mr. Riordan?" Annabeth asked. "How are you able to know these?"

"It may have been a moment of panic-" He said. "But I am an observant person."

"Who are they?" Fred asked.

"The Army of death?" Britney said.

"Army of Chaos." Nancy corrected.

"Whatever." David said. "They're freaks."

"They saved my life. Along with hundreds other, and put away a hundred terrorist who could've done so much more damage to San Fransisco, if they weren't stopped." Mr. Riordan said. "If they're freaks. What are you Mr. Gilmore?"

And at that exact moment, the bell rang. The demigods collected their bags and walked out smiling.

"Good to know he's on our side." Thalia mumbled.

"Let's go to Greek." Piper said.

Percy, as usual, placed his arms around Annabeth. Jason kept on kissing Piper kisses, on the cheek, forehead, head, all the way to class. Luke and Thalia was speaking in Greek for some reason. Apparently, Zeus got a hold of Luke's phone number and had asked to meet again.

"He's gonna kill me." Luke said.

"Luke Castellan, take a breath of I'm going to punch the air out of your lungs. My dad's not going to kill you." Thalia said. "I'm gonna kill him if he does."

"You don't get it. I betrayed Olympus." Luke said. "I betrayed him! He wants to kill me I know."

"Are we still talking about this?" Clarisse asked, as she too just got into Greek.

"Dude. Let it go already." Chris said. "He is not gonna kill you. I mean. Ares hasn't killed me, and I betrayed Olympus too."

"And dad once killed one of Percy's freak brothers for raping one of my sister." Clarisse said.

"Hey! Don't judge a man by his freak brothers. One of your brother was a dragon." Percy said pointedly.

Percy stuck his tongue out, and Clarisse, for the first time, acted like a child and stuck her tongue out.

"The point is-" Beckendorf said. "If we all can forgive you. So can Zeus."

"Well he has too, anyway." Silena said. "He'll face the wrath of my mother, AND Thalia."

"YOU." Leo said. "Next time. Can you at least call us if you want to be all Hero? I'm feeling a bit left out here." He glared at the ten that was at the mall.

"There won't be a next time." Annabeth said. "We were trapped. That was just out way out."

"Next time. Give us a chance." Travis said, completely ignoring what Annabeth had just said.
