The worst thing about writers block is that you feel like you let people down 😔 But people I tried to do a Nico chapter and it was really hard and I got no help whatsoever. So I just decided to do an easy one sooner, and hopefully I get out of this slump.

"Aaand welcome back... To a Demigod Talkshow!" The same deep voice said. "Starting Kat Moone and the Heroes of Olympus."

"Woo hoo!" Kat ran on the stage, her hands up high. But, just like last week, no one applauded.

Kat pouted. "Really guys?"

"Really." Someone shouted.

"Well then." Kat grumbled, sitting in her seat. Then, she grinned. "Anywho! We have a few extra special guests on today, since they threatened me, so let me introduce the gods! Zeus... Poseidon.... And Hades!"

They came on as each name was called. Zeus in his fancy gray suit, Poseidon in his Hawaiian shirt and fishermen getup, and Hades in a pure black suit with a red dress shirt and tie. The tie had moving images of silent screaming souls (say that 10 times fast), and everyone shuddered.

"Nice suit Hades!" Kat grinned as everyone sat down. Zeus and Poseidon occupied the couch, while Hades sat on the chair.

"Thank you Kat." He straightened his tie.

"He stole my look." Zeus said.

"Just because I wanted to look nice does not mean that I copied you!" Hades argued.

"Exactly." Poseidon chuckled. "If he wanted to look nice, he wouldn't copy you."

"Burn!" Someone from the audience said.

"You're one to talk." Zeus looked at Poseidon's outfit and sneered.

"There is nothing wrong with feeling comfortable."

"I couldn't agree more." Kat nodded earnestly, gesturing to her hoodie.

"Wait." Hades frowned. "Why aren't you stopping us from fighting?"

Kat shrugged. "Because it would never work. You guys would figure things out on your own. Plus, people love the drama." She looked at the audience. "Am I right people?!"

The crowd roared with approval.

"Well then we won't argue." Poseidon sniffed.

"We'll see." Kat grinned. "All I did was compliment Hades, and you guys already took up a lot of the time in this episode."

"Well ask us something then!" Zeus said.

"Okay okay. Let me get my questions." Kat took out a piece of paper. "Don't forget to upload chapter on— oops wrong list!"

"What?" Poseidon frowned.

"Nothing!" She dipped from view under her desk. A lot of noise was heard as she was looking: ruffling papers, a jack hammer, an elephant—

"Here we go!" Kat came up again with another paper. "Okay. Zeus."

"Yes dear Kat."

"Don't call me that. How did you get the sky as your domain? Was it destined already? Were you assigned?"

"Rock paper scissors." Zeus said nonchalantly. "I'm the champion at it."

"Only because you cheated." Hades huffed.

"Sore loser." Poseidon coughed.

"Just because of that," Kat snapped her fingers, "we're going to do something with Rock Paper Scissors later."

"Oh goody!" Zeus clapped his hands.

"Please never do that again either." Kat shook her head. "Next question is for Poseidon!"

"Continue."

"You had told Percy about you having other children. Everyone took it as a joke, but were you being serious?"

Poseidon swallowed. "Ummm..."

"Kat, I don't think you should ask him that." Hades warned.

"Why not? I can do an—"

All of a sudden, a blast echoed through the room and an explosion shook the ground. Smoke filled the room. After it was gone, a big hole was in the left wall. Men in tuxedos and bulletproof vests holding guns started bursting in, filling the room. People started screaming and panicking, but no one could leave.

"Hey!" Kat stood up.

"Clear the area!" A guy in a tux and sunglasses said.

"What do you think you are doing?" Kat put her hands on her hips.

"Poseidon, sir," the guy ignored her. "have you told her anything?"

"No." Poseidon shook his head.

"Hello!?" Kat waved her arms.

"Mrs,—"

"Miss."

The guy cleared his throat. "Miss, the information on any whereabouts on the children of Poseidon is classified."

"So he does have other children." Someone in the crowd said. Immediately, a dart hit them in the shoulder, and they fell.

"For the safety of this information," The guy continued, "we're going to have to shut down this... erm..."

"Talkshow." Kat informed. She narrowed her eyes. "And there is no way I am letting you shut this down."

He fixed his sunglasses. "We will use force."

"So will I." Kat growled. Then, she turned to the camera. "We will be back after these messages!"

~ 2 minutes of boring commercials later~

"And we're back!" Kat said.

The set was back to normal. There was no hole in the wall, no secret agent people, and everything seemed okay. Except the three gods looked at Kat strangely for the way she disposed of the men. Don't ask how.

"Now, I believe it's Hades's turn?" Kat turned to Hades, who yelped. "Hades, how's your relationship with Persephone?"

Hades straightened his tie again. "It's okay."

"I realize that Valentine's Day has just came by. Did you get her anything?"

He sighed. "No."

Everyone gasped. There were also some "Oh..."s.

"But why doe?" Kat said, frustrated.

Hades threw his hands up. "I don't know! I tried to make her a romantic dinner, but she wouldn't come because 'it smells bad'. I'm so very sorry that I tried to make her a home cooked meal!"

Dead silence. Some people in the crowd awed.

"Well." Kat said awkwardly.

"Why can't she appreciate what I do for her?" Hades put his head in his hands.

"You did kidnap her." Zeus whispered.

"Do you want to say that to my face?!" Hades stood up.

"You. did. kidnap. her." Zeus stood up as well.

"Ummm..." Poseidon was squished in between them. "Brothers..."

"Who's side are you on?" Zeus asked him.

Poseidon looked at Kat. "Help?"

Kat shook her head and put up her hands. "There's been a lot of fighting on this show so far. Better let you handle it."

"At least my wife didn't try to kill my son multiple times!" Hades said.

"You mean Hercules?" Zeus waved it away. "That's just family stuff. But Hera wanted to be my wife."

"No, she didn't." Hades said in a smart butt tone. "You snuck up on her and—"

"CUE THE CENSOR PUPPY!!!!" Kat shouted quickly.

~<>~

"Are you done with your history lesson." Kat closed her eyes and rubbed her temples.

"Yes." Hades then looked at the horrified audience. "What? It's the truth."

"But she likes me now." Zeus muttered.

"Heyyyy I have an idea!" Poseidon got up and slowly pushed Hades and Zeus back down. "Why doesn't Kat give Hades some advice on his relationship, so Persephone can like him, and we can forget this ever happened!"

Kat dropped the pen that she was playing with. "What?"

"I like that plan!" Hades said.

"Yeah yeah." Zeus sighed.

"Go ahead Kat." Poseidon gave her a look.

"Oh, right." Kat pointed a finger upward. "I shall now summon my marriage counselor helper!"

"What?" The three gods said at once.

Just then, an aroma of roses filled the place.

"Oh no." Hades groaned loudly.

"I'm here!" Aphrodite appeared from a cloud of doves, wearing a tight pink dress with a lighter pink Greek dress over. Her hair was up in ringlets, and her make-up was flawless.

"And here she is!" Kat said, over the groaning.

"I heard someone needed my expert advice!" Aphrodite sang out.

"Right here!" Poseidon clapped Hades on the shoulder.

"Thanks guys." Hades glared at them.

"Oh, it's with Persephone, isn't it." Aphrodite tutted. "I've been waiting for your cry of help."

"Actually, I—"

"You already made sure that she knew you love her when you kidnapped her." She waved, and a fancy pink chair appeared next to Hades. "But do you ever let her do what she wants?"

Hades frowned. "It's not like she ever says anything."

Kat emphasized a groan. "Men."

"What?!" Hades exclaimed.

"Take notes, gentlemen." Kat looked toward Zeus and Poseidon, who nodded.

"We women don't say what we really mean." Aphrodite sighed at Hades's confused look. "We hope you guys catch onto our silence. When we say 'nothing'. But you men are stupidly simple."

"Mhm. Mhm." Hades rolled his hand. "Go on."

Aphrodite started to speak, but Kat spoke over her. "—and we're out of time!"

Zeus frowned. "But I never got asked a question."

"Yes you did." Kat frowned back.

"But I wanna another."

"What's your favorite color." Kat said without a care.

"Blue. Sky blue."

"Of course not Aqua." Poseidon grumbled.

"Thank you all for watching this episode, and maybe the gods can come back on soon!" Kat tried to get a group hug.

"I regret threatening her." Zeus said emotionless.

"I regret agreeing to come along." Poseidon said as well.

"I regret wearing this suit." Hades looked down and tried to fix his crooked tie.

"And I regret not being able to post this sooner!" Kat waved. "But you know stuff! Bye!"

So you must've forgotten about this book. Well, I'm on a roll on my other book, so I kinda got sick of this one. But the other book is almost finished, so I'll have some more time for this.

Question: Who out of the big three is your favorite? NO, ZEUS, I WILL NOT TELL THEM TO CHOOSE YOU. Jeez.

Rock on, my little rebels.
