7:00 PM

Percy was the first to arrive. Well, he never really left. He had swim practice until one. He had six hours to kill. He could have gone home but Gabe was home Saturdays. Instead he had brought himself some McDonalds, which he ate before putting in headphones and finding a cozy spot in the library. He sat down blasting his music before drifting off to sleep.

Annabeth was fifteen minutes early not very surprising. She headed to the library to get a book to occupy herself tonight rather than break up fights. She walked around before spotting a sleeping figure. Percy. She was about to wake him when something with eight legs crawled on to his shoulder.

"Percy!" She whisper yells but the boy wasn't listening with his headphones in. She slowly grabbed the nearest book and raised it. She was about to swing when she had enough sense to check the title first. She couldn't hit a disgusting spider with The Hunger Games could she?

After seeing the book was Twilight she raised it once more.

"Good s-spider. D-Don't move o-okay?" She quickly brings down the book successfully killing the spider and bruising Percy.

~~~~

Percy's eyes snap open fear evident he clutches his shoulder in pain. He already has a bruise there. He calms a bit and anger and confusion replace his fear upon seeing Annabeth.

"What the hell?!" He yells. Annabeth puts the book down apologetically.

"There was a spider," She answers sheepishly. Percy sighs and stands. "I didn't hit you that hard did I?" She asks seeing him grasp his shoulder.

"No. But I, uh, I hit it on the locker when Luke hit me yesterday."

Annabeth stares at him with those gray calculating eyes for a moment before nodding slowly. "We should head to Brunner's office."

Percy nods and shoulders his bag (on the opposite shoulder) and the two head out the library. As they walk he could practically see Annabeth's wheels turning. That is the only thing he dislikes about the girl. When those eyes were staring straight through his lies.

Percy fell for Annabeth a while back but, the girl asked a lot of questions. Most people believed him when he said the bruises were from the numerous fights but he can tell she knows not all were. The only people who could probably see through them are Annabeth, Nico and Luke.

Nico just seemed to know when someone was lying. And Luke if he ever saw the bruises he would be able to tell that it's not his work.

The two arrived in Prinicpal Brunner's office to see the Prinicpal and his wife waiting for them.

~~~~

After Percy and Annabeth came Leo. He arrived early to check out possible prank places before heading to then office.

The Graces came next, bringing Luke with them. They were followed by Piper then, Reyna and then the Di Angelo-Levesques bringing Frank as well.

All gathered in they principal's office who has a small smile on his face. Once all settle he speaks.

"Okay. I'm glad you all showed. There is food for dinner and breakfast in the cafeteria. Just beacause you are alone doesn't mean you won't get in trouble for things. The cameras are still active. We will be watching everything afterward understood?"

Twelve heads nod slowly.

"Wonderful. And you understand what will happen if it doesn't work?" His wife asks.

Twelve heads nod slowly again.

"Great," Prinicipal Brunner says with a smile. "Now hand over your phones, ipad-"

"What!?"

"No!"

Many more outraged cries ring out.

"Enough!" Lupa yells with a growl and her glare piercing everyone. "You will hand over your phone, iPad, tablet, laptop etc. They will be locked in the school safe until returned to you tomorrow. The cameras will also tell us if you used them. Understood?"

Twelve glum students nod sadly reaching for the phones and other electronics. Handing them over like a piece of their soul is lost.

~~~~

The students watch still processing as their Vice Prinicpal and Principal walk out the school locking the electronic lock begin them. Smirks on their faces.

It's official. No one in. No one out.

The students look at each other before shrugging and walking off in different directions.

"Wait! You can't leave!" Annabeth shouts after them.

"Why? You woke me up I wanna sleep," Percy complains.

"Seaweed Brain," Annabeth says with a faceplam. "If we don't get 'along' they are gonna make us do this again. And they're gonna watch the footage. We have to pretend to like each other just until morning."

The group groans and sighs but untimately agree.

"What are we supposed to do?" Luke asks.

"We could raid the cafeteria?" Leo suggests. Not having a better ideas the other follow missing the pleased smile on Leo's face.

Upon walking in the oddly empty cafeteria, they notice one table is full of various foods: fruits, cereal, some chips etc. Each take their pick and settle at the only table out. No one speaks. Everyone knows it's awkward but speaking would surely make it worse. Instead they sit silently for a large amount of time listening to the wind and the pounding of the snow outside as the growing storm brews.

It's hard to believe less than a year ago they were tightly knit. All woven together to form something beautiful. Then a small issue arose cutting a single strand. The small issue grew and grew until everything and everyone unraveled.

Finally one speaks.

"I can't take the silence and sitting!" Leo bursts. "Luke who won Thursday's game? Beauty Queen what did Calypso say? Frank who wrestled Drako? Anyone is there any gossip!?"

All stare blankly at Leo's outburst before speaking.

"We beat the Monsters 35-21," Luke answers.

"Don't call me that and Calypso said your strange but she likes you and will go out with you sometime," Piper answers.

"Yes! A lady for Leo!"

"Clarisse practically killed Drako," Frank answers with a smile for his cousin, the only girl on the wrestling team.

"That guy is huge," Percy comments. "I thought Clarisse was scary before... Don't tell her I said that."

"Gossip anyone?" Leo asks.

"Rachel and Drew still like Percy," Piper says thinking back to what she over hears during cheer practice. "I heard a girl named Jaz likes Leo for some reason..."

"Hey! All the da ladies love Leo!" He goes ignored.

"Uh, People still think Nico is emo but now they think your a druggie." Nico rolls his eyes in response. "Oh, Hazel, people want to know if your eyes are naturally that color. That's all I can think of for now."

"I thought you said you'd get Drew to back off," Percy complains. Piper shrugs.

"What about Rachel?" Annabeth asks feeling a tad jealous.

"I've tried but we are working on a project for history." Percy explains and Annabth relaxes. The other ten roll eyes at the obliviousness of the two.

"I need to just lock them in a closet," Piper mutters.

"I'll help," Reyna and Bianca agree at once. Annabeth and Percy start a conversation. A few others talk about getting them together. Nico sleeps. No one pays much notice as Leo slinks away. He comes back a few minutes later.

"Guys! I found something amazing! Come look!" Everyone looks at him but doesn't move. "Come on!" They groan and follow the hyper boy out the cafeteria and down the hall.

But then they lose sight of him. They begin to look head through a set of double door but...

A large amount of water rains down on top of them.

"VALDEZ!"
