Halloween Special
(Photo above is Green Goddess, you'll see why soon. P.S. For the next few chapters there will be a superhero picture. Also, I'm SO sorry I didn't update as soon as I planed, I feel REALLY bad.)
Grover's PoV
We've been in school a few months now. I'll catch you up on what you've missed, boring classed, fun classes, drama, lunch, demigod/satyer/nymph/oracle training, cookies, and Marvel and Disney movies.
Anyways, it's Halloween, and we're going to the school costume ball. (It's required. -_-) Juniper, Katie, Rachel, and I were actually put on the decorating team. (Probably because the school said, "No blood or gore.") So currently we're decorating the gymnasium for the "ball."
"Rachel, you're a genius," Katie said while hanging Vættir, Norse nature spirits, from the ceiling.
"It was nothing," Rachel replied.
See, Rachel had had this idea of using monsters/spirits from mythologies of the world to decorate.
"It's perfect," Juniper corrected.
"Guys, stop. I said it's nothing, and I'm the oracle, so I'm right," Rachel said.
Juniper wouldn't take it, "Grover, what do you think?"
"Yeah, Grover, what do you think?" Rachel asked.
A little cough off guard, I started stuttering, "I-I-I think I sh-sh-should stay out of i-it-t be-because I like being a-a-al-l-live?"
Juniper and Rachel shared a look then started laughing. After that the decorating went well, and no one died.
Percy's PoV
Halloween. Pretty much the best holiday of the year. I mean, who doesn't like free candy? (A/N: Bubble Brain...) This year should be even better since it's the first year I've gotten to spend with my friends.
This year we're going to a costume party at school. Everyone agreed to go as super heroes, which is cool and all, but there's one thing; the girls get to choose whose who.
So right now I'm in the living room, dressed as Daredevil, with Jason (Superman), Leo (Ironman), Frank (Hawkeye), Nico (Batman) Connor (Flash), Travis (Captain America), Pippin (Professor X), Will (Doctor Strange), and Grover (Captain Planet).
It was kind of awkward, a whole bunch of guys, dressed as superheroes, sitting in the living room, we weren't sure what to do. I was almost to the point of leaving when the girls walked in.
Holly was Aquagirl, Piper was Wonder Woman, Hazel was Robin, Katie was Kitty Pryde, Juniper was Green Goddess, Rachel was Marvel Girl, and Annabeth was Invisible Woman.
Annabeth grabbed some keys off the wall, "Okay, we're taking the van the gods gave us. I'll drive unless anyone else would like to...no? Good. Now go load up."
"Shotgun!" Leo started running to the car, but I somehow managed to get there first.
"HEY! I called shotgun!" Leo protested.
I shrugged, "Too bad, Repair Boy. Get in the back."
"Whatever, Water Boy," Leo mumbled.
"Really, Leo? That again?"
"Would you prefer Aquaman?"
"Would you prefer it if I-"
Annabeth cut me off, "Okay, that's enough, you two. Leo, get in the back. Percy, try not to act like you did at every other school you went to."
"Yes ma'am," we replied at the same time.
"Good, now everyone else get in!"
After a few minutes of weird van-y-ness we arrived at the school, and for once I was happy to be there.
We went in and found my old friends; Alexia (an elf like in Lord of the Rings), Alex (Gollum), Nicole (a skeleton), JP (an egg [A/N: Hey Nina, BE AN EGG!]), Robby (a Sayter...?), and Skylar (a cloud nymph...?!)
"Hey guys," Alexia said, "what's up?"
"It's kind of obvious, isn't it? We're at a party..." Annabeth trailed off.
"Touché," Alexia laughed.
"So what-" I was cut off by a high-pitched voice that I was not hoping to hear.
"Percy!" Miria came walking over to us in her small yet stupidly flashy costume. "I've been waiting for you!"
"Miria, there's a reason Percy wore a mask," Alexia said with her hands on her hips. "It's so you would have a harder time finding him, unfortunately cats have a good sense of smell."
Miria sneered, "I'm not even dressed as a cat, I'm an angel, so your comment doesn't work."
"Two things," Alexia held up two fingers. "One; I wasn't talking about your costume, but you'd need a few brain cells to get that. Two; Isn't it ironic that you're dressed as an angel?"
Miria was obviously at a loss for words, so she rolled her eyes and walked off.
"Now that that's done," I turned to Annabeth, "I'd like to have a dance with my Wise Girl."
And it was pretty much the best Halloween dance ever.
