"Pipes can you pass me the lemonade," Annabeth asked, digging into her pancakes. She loved lemonade, lemons, in general. She had read somewhere that lemons ward of spiders and since then, she had become the crazy lemon lady.

She took a huge sip of of the lemonade Piper passed her, exactly when the doors of the dining room flew open, startling Annabeth and almost causing her to almost choke on her drink.

"It's official!! The Water Gun Fight is on!!" whooped Leo, dashing to the breakfast table.

"I claim Annabeth," yelled Thalia from the other side of the table. Annabeth smirked , suddenly aware of all the eyes on her.

"Oh, you know you're gonna win Thals, now that wisdom's daughter walks with you."

She heard a loud scoff from Octavian and a laugh from Drew, who were sitting across the table.

Annabeth glared at them. "Problem?!" she asked.

"Oh please, your blonde and a girl, what could be more of a pathetic reason for your stupidity in thinking your gonna win," sneered the idiot.

"Oh darling please! Don't give her much credit! I'm sure her hairs dyed and she can't nearly be smart enough to understand what your saying," sang out Drew in a singsong voice.

What was with those two?!

Annabeth felt her knuckles whitening as she clenched them, her anger mirroring that of Thalia and Luke and of almost everyone at the table.

She looked around trying to calm herself before ripping their eyes out and felt a hand lightly patting her arm.

"Let them be," Piper muttered, looking at her with a reassuring smile. But it was clear that she was also upset with her step sister.

She felt my hands unclench and her eyes locked with a set of sea green ones, giving her an idea almost instantly. Weird.

"Oh Drew darling, may you please pass me two knives " Annabeth replied with a fake smile , mimicking Drew's earlier sing song voice . Drew Tanka discretely exchanged a glance with Octavian, passing Annabeth two metal knives with a sickly sweet smile plastered on her face.

With a smile, Annabeth took a knife in each hand and slowly rotated them while watching Drew's smirk fade.

She took aim and threw both the knifes at a perfect angle, aiming for the wooden wall situated behind Drew and Octavian, both of them flying at rapid speed and attaching themselves firmly onto the wall, right above Octavian and Drew's heads.

"Athena always has a plan. And I never lose, " she stated, walking out of the dining room, not turning back once. Annabeth heard a familiar dragging of chairs and smiled.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"That was awesome Annie ! " Thalia whooped, barging into Annabeth's room, Piper, Hazel, Clarisse and Reyna following suit.

"You've got spunk, I'll give you that," Clarisse said as they all ended up sitting and spreading in her room like a virus.

Annabeth smiled, "You guys could've knocked you know. What If I was changing ?"

"It's not like you've got anything we don't," Piper smirked.

"Piper!" Hazel yelled and turned red as everyone burst out laughing.

"Wouldn't it have been cooler If we had a paintball gun fight instead of water gun ?" Reyna asked, lying down on Annabeth's bed.

"Well, Chiron wouldn't want us ruining our expensive gowns with paint and the boys are messy enough without paint involved. Two, this is a secret, isn't it? And we should be grateful that he's even giving us an opportunity to play like teenagers, does anyone else have this option at home?'' Annabeth answered.

Everyone murmered in agreement, heir or not, they hardly ever got time to have fun.

'' Soo, is everyone ready ?" Hazel gestured to her gown to ask if anyone had to change their attire.

"I guess we are," Thalia answered, munching on the truffles Annabeth had taken from the dinner table as a snack. At least someone's eating them, she thought.

"I wish we didn't have to wear these awful contraptions" Thalia grunted, looking pointedly at her gown.

Annabeth looked around the room, Reyna had on a pale red gown, with silver sparkles at the bottom. Hazel and Thalia were both wearing dark green and Piper ,light yellow. Annabeth herself had on a blush pink gown, with some beading that was quite light. Clarisse had gone to the bathroom, but she was wearing a grey gown.

"You mean our gowns ?" Reyna raised an eyebrow. Everyone burst out laughing, yet, no one denied it.

"What are all you princesses laughing about?" Clarisse asked, re-emerging from her bathroom.

Piper opened her mouth to speak but there was a knock at the door. Everyone turned to face Annabeth, expecting her to go open the door. "Why can't one of you do it? You barge in, you answer the door," Annabeth declared, crossing her arms.

"Wow you're a spoilt punk. I'll do it," Clarisse smirked as she went to answer the door.

Annabeth rolled her eyes and glared at Clarisse "There's a difference between spoilt and lazy, I'm lazy."

'' Hazel, Thalia! Your work" Clarisse yelled out from the door .Thalia and Hazel exchanged a confused look and began walking towards the door.

"JACKSON!!!!"they heard Clarisse yell, followed by the sound of running echoing through the halls.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Poor guy," Nico heard Jason whisper under his breath.

Nico just smiled, he found it very amusing when Clarisse La Rue opened the door and Percy bolted, the girl right behind him.

He'd wanted to go to his room and play Mytho Magic but Percy and Jason were standing right in front of his door and laughing.

"Hey, guys. Move over please. Elderly person coming through," Nico said.

Jason laughed even louder than before. "You? Elderly? You're literally old enough to be our baby bro."

He groaned but ended up laughing too.

"Didn't I tell you both to go get the girls?! Stop wasting time and get on with it!!", Hedge screamed, appearing out of nowhere.

Nico tried to slip into his room unnoticed, but very unnaturally failed. Nobody ever noticed him!!! Maybe he shouldn't have tried...

"Where you off to, Cupcake?? You're going with them."

And here they were, and Percy was in serious trouble. Flailing his arms and running through the corridor.

"What's going on?" Nico heard a soft voice say, he smiled. "Not important Hazel ,let's go" he said, talking her gently by the wrist.

"Is there anyone else in the room? Ask them to come out too," Jason asked looking at Thalia Grace, the girl who accompanied Hazel out the door.

They didn't look alike at all, only common feature they shared were eyes. Electric Blue. They don't seem that close, he thought.

"Yo Annie,Reyna, Piper. Get out" Thalia Grace yelled, knocking on the hardwood door with her knuckles.

One by one the princess came out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Can't you cupcakes sit still for 10 minutes till Chiron is back ?! We are doing this for you and you can't even co-operate!! You ungrateful deserts !!", Coach Hedge yelled so loud, Nico didn't think possible for the living.

He looked at Hazel, who looked amused at Coach's fifth outbreak in the past half hour. She always reminded Nico of Bianca, their big sister. Nobody had loved and cared for him as much as she did. Few years ago, she left him too, all alone once again. He wasn't exactly alone, he did have his little sister, Hazel, but it's a known fact that Nico was closest to Bianca. Especially since they lost their mother.

Maria di Angelo had mothered two kids King Hades, himself and Bianca. She died when they were just kids and their father married Marie Levesque. She was Hazel's mother. But due to complications with childbirth, she died shortly after Hazel was born. Hades married Queen Persephone after he kidnapped her from Demeter's kingdom, shortly after Hazel was born.

"Hey, you! Get over here", Nico was pulled out of his thoughts by Hedge's megaphone blaring in his ear.

He looked around, only to see everyone starting right at him. For Hades sake, Nico cursed under his breath.

Hedge must have noticed the bewildered look on his face because he immediately scoffed and screamed again. "Yes, you!! Pale one !"

Pale one?, Nico marveled, as he got up. I'm not that pale, am I ?

When he approached the coach, the man didn't spare him a look, but instead looked into the group of royals below them. Coach immediately pointed at a skinny blond guy, his hair was jelled back into place and he was quite pale, not as pale as Nico but still quite pale.
He reeked a scent of cologne and had lots of rings on his hands.

For some weird reason he had his crown on his head, the only other royal with any Jewellery was Drew Tanka.

Show off, Nico thought

"Come on!! Over here, you !!"

When the prince reached the platform, Hedge turned on his heels and walked away yelling, "Trust Fall!!!!! And I'm watching so don't try to avoid it."

Nico closed his eyes and sighed. What had he done that the Fates were punishing him like this, he didn't know.

"Fine," he muttered under his breath as he walked towards Octavian and turned his back to him. "Drop me and I'll kill you."

At that, he snorted. "You're a kid compared to me."

Nico snorted back and said,"Here goes."

He had a feeling he'd be heading to the infirmary after this, but he had no choice. He fell.....and hit the floor.

Octavian had chosen the exact moment Nico fell to turn to the crowd and yell,"I bet he's as heavy as a stick."

Nico rolled over in pain. He'd fallen right on his hip.

"Nico!!" he heard his sister exclaim as she came running towards him.
"Are you alright?" She whispered leaning down next to him.
He managed a weak smile.

Coach Hedge came running and yelled to the boy standing closest to them, "Will !! Take this boy to the infirmary !!"

Nico suddenly heard a rapid drumming and realised it was his heartbeat. He turned to look at Will Solace ,who looked equally flustered.
He felt Hazel stir next to him and get up, moving aside to let Will come towards him, but still close enough to be there for him.

He nodded his head and came towards them, tripping on a pipe on his way. He helped Nico to his feet, who wasn't exactly helping. He stumbled on his feet and feel onto Will, taking them both to the ground, again, in Nico's case.

"Lovebirds," they heard Octavian mutter from behind them.

Nico flushed so red, he'd think people would stop calling him pale, but his luck is almost never good.

Except right that moment.

Will Solace. Will Solace was below him, and was equally red. Nico blushed harder and was extremely grateful he felt a pair of hands pull him up.

"Certainly not light as a stick, Octavian," said Jason. "Need help, Will? He's hurt quite bad."

"No, it's all right. I've got this. Son of Apollo here."

With one swift motion, Will hoisted Nico upright holding him by arm.

"To the infirmary we go," he announced, slowly dragging Nico along.

"Nooo," Nico cursed under his breath.

"I heard that Death Boy, and no excuses. Doctors orders."

Nico looked up at Will with a confused look, but just before he could ask what he meant, he heard footsteps running up to them.

"Do you want me to come too?" Hazel asked him, looking at him with concerned eyes.

Before Nico could say anything, coach Hedges microphone boomed across the garden.
"Come back here Cupcake! Let them both go."

Hazel looked apologetically at him and he laughed.
"It's okay sis,I'll be fine. Go "

She shot him one last look before running back to the group.

"Onwards To The Infirmary!!" Will yelled, pulling Nico along.

Stay Tuned !!!
