Percy's POV:
"Come on Thals! If Perce beats us we won't hear the end of it. Ever." I laughed. He was right. But it would be the same if the situation was reversed.
"Yeah, yeah, Death Breath. If we'd left two minutes earlier like I'd told you we would definatly have beaten Seaweed Brain."
I guess I should explain the nicknames. Nico is Death Breath/Corpse Breath because he wants to be one of those people who deal with finding out how people died and also because his dad is Hades.
Did I mention that we're half bloods. One of our parents in mortal and one is a god or goddess on Olympus. Now days located right above the Empire State Building. Special elevator to the 600th floor.
Anyway. Thalia is called Pine-Cone Face because of an incident with a pine tree when we were younger.
And apparently my head is full of kelp so I'm called Kelp Head or Seaweed Brain.
"To bad." Percy stood up.
"No! Nico! I told you to leave earlier!" the girl complained.
"Hey! Good to see you too cuz." I smiled. I didn't have to pretend to have no emotions with these people.
"Come on. Moms made blue choc chip cookies."
Nico ran off. "Come on. I want some of your moms cookies!"
"Wait up, Death Breath!" Thalia called after him.
"Come on. We'd better catch him. We need to find Paul."
"We gonna borrow his car?"
"No. He just wants to see you two."
"Why?"
"Because he hasn't seen you in months and because him and Nico get along great." We caught up to Nico.
"Hey Death Breath! We have to see Paul first."
"Ok. Fine. But only cause we get Blue cookies afterwards." Nico relented.

"Hey Paul." I stepped into the classroom. I had told Nico and Thalia to wait outside. You see Paul didn't know they were coming. "I have a surprise for you." I motioned for the two to come in.
"Hey." Thalia said before being pulled into a hug with Nico and Paul.
"Percy didn't tell me you were coming."
Thalia turned to Percy. "Huh. So Paul wanted to see us?" She asked sweetly as she poked Percy on the arm.
"OW! THALIA GRACE! THAT HURT!" Thalia was suddenly wet.
"Ok. Now we're even." She sighed.
"Now can we go get cookies? Please Percy." Nico begged. Me and Paul shared a look.
"Go on." Paul said. "We can catch up later." Me and Thalia were dragged out the door by a hungry Nico.
