The Aphrodite Rangers shifted nervously in their seats. Aphrodite had called them for a meeting in the amphitheatre at the Camp Jupiter branch, but why?

Suddenly, Aphrodite appeared in a poof of pink. She was handed a sparkly pink microphone. "Hey everyone!" She squealed. "Today I'm going to read you a story!" Everyone looked at her weirdly.

"Is it Divergent again?" Someone yelled.

Aphrodite giggled. "No! I'm going to read you three stories of mortals slash demigods meeting to Percabeth!" Everyone started whispering. "First up, 3.) Camp Half-Blood.

It was a quiet day at camp half-blood."

"That's got to mean something is wrong." A Ranger whispered to her friend who nodded.

Aphrodite ignored her. "Everyone was either enjoying the sunshine at the beach, or playing a game of capture the flag. Except two people. Annabeth was curled up in a ball in her cabin. Her sobs could be heard from the opposite side of camp."

"I need to give her a box of tissues!" A girl cried, referring to the many she had in her library.

" "Annabeth open up!" Percy yelled, banging on the door. He didn't know why she was crying, and it couldn't have been good. "Why are you crying? Please open up!" Percy yelled, then he had an idea. "

"Uh oh." Kathy Dalme muttered. "This can't be good."

" "Annabeth?

(Knock, knock, knock, knock)
Do you wanna talk about it?
Come on out, i'm right here
I never see you anymore
Come out the door
It's like you've gone away-
We used to be best buddies
And now we're not
I wish you would tell me why!-
Do you wanna talk about it?
It doesn't have to be about it." "

Several Rangers swooned and fainted from feels.

" "Go away, Percy." Annabeth sniffed.

"Never! (Knocking)
Do you wanna talk about it?
Or ride our chariot around the track?
I think some company is overdue
I've started talking to
The naiads in the sea.
(Hang in there, guys!)
It gets a little lonely
All these empty cabins
Just watching the hours tick by-
(Tic-Tock, Tic-Tock, Tic-Tock, Tic-Tock, Tic-Tock)

(Knocking)
Annabeth?
Please, I know you're in there,
People are asking why you're not here,
They say "have courage", and I'm trying to
I'm right out here for you, just let me in
We only have each other
It's just you and me
What are we gonna do?

Do you wanna talk about it?
Please tell me what's wrong Annabeth." "

Everyone was now either crying or face-palming at how much Percy was a Seaweed Brain.

" Then the door flew open, and a puffy-eyed Annabeth stood there. "You'll hate me if I tell you what's wrong."

"No I won't. I promise." He held out his arms, and she fell into them. Then she started crying.

Percy rubbed her back. "Now, what's wrong?" "

"AWWWWW!" Everyone cooed.

" "I'm pregnant." Annabeth sniffed. "

Chaos erupted everywhere. All of the Ranger were screaming their heads off.

"SILENCE!" Aphrodite yelled. Everyone shut up and got back in their seats. "Now, 23.) Frederick Chase

As I waited for my daughter Annabeth to come around, I thought of what Chiron told me. He'd said that she had fallen into the deepest part of the Underworld; Tartarus. She'd fallen with a boy named Percy, and had luckily made it out alive together.

Now four years later, Annabeth and Percy were coming around for dinner. Apparently Annabeth had something to tell me. "

"She's pregnant!" Someone yelled.

" I watched as my wife Helen set the table and put the garlic bread --"

"Did someone say 'garlic bread'?" Taylor Ri asked.

"Yup!" Angelina Phillips grinned, blowing her gum.

"-- into the oven. Just then, the doorbell rang, and I rushed over to the door to see two people standing there.

Annabeth was almost just as I remembered her. Her usual curly blonde hair was tied up, and her sparkling stormy grey eyes had a little more sadness in them, but not so much that she looked depressed. She wore a silvery grey shirt and blue jeans.

Her companion was a man. His hair was ruffled and black, and his eyes were kinda like Annabeth's, except they were sea-green. He wore a blue shirt and black shorts.

I smiled. "Hello Annabeth." I greeted her, before turning to the man. "You must be Percy." He shook my hand firmly and smiled.

"No, I'm Iron Man." I laughed and stepped aside to let them in. "

The Rangers who were apart of the Marvel Superheroes fandom smirked.

" ••• "

"THE FIRST DOT IS MINE!" Someone yelled.

"DIBS ON SECOND!" Another screamed.

"THE LAST ONE IS MINE!" Two girls yelled at the same time. Then everyone started bickering over the dots.

"Shh!" Aphrodite said. " Helen was just serving desert when the topic changed.

"So," said Bobby, wiggling his eyebrows. "Are you two staying the night?"

"Yeah, they are." I said. Percy and Annabeth nodded.

"Would you like me to make the bed in the guest room?" Helen asked.

"No thanks, I can sleep on the floor in Annabeth's room." Percy replied. "

"You mean 'sleep' together?" A very dirty-minded Ranger smirked.

" "Do you guys kiss a lot?" Matthew asked. "

"They have kissing sessions." Sophia Downside cut in. Amy Taylor mimed puking.

" They both turned a light shade of pink.

"Matthew." I said sharply. "Of course they don't. If they were dating, then Annabeth would've told me."

Annabeth looked down at her plate. "Yeah, I guess I would've." She murmured, but 'would've' sounded more like 'should've'. "

"Ohhhhh!"

" "So, are you dating?" Bobby asked.
Percy and Annabeth exchanged glances. "No, we're not." But I had a feeling that they weren't dating, but were something more... "

"OH MY GODS THEY'RE MARRIED!" Someone shrieked.

" ••• "

"MINE!" Someone yelled.

"No, mine!"

"My precious!"

"MINE!"

"M--"

"SHUT UP!"

" I awoke in the middle of the night to a scream. Helen was already out of bed and opening our bedroom door. I quickly followed her down the hall to Annabeth's room.

When we got there, I was surprised to see Percy sitting on the bed and cradling Annabeth in his strong arms. "It's okay," he soothed. "We got out, we're alive, Leo's alive, Piper and Jason are in New Rome with their twins, Frank and Hazel are engaged, we're okay too." "

"Jiper have twins?!" A hardcore Jiper Shipper screamed. Her fellow shippers fainted.

" Slowly, Annabeth's screams died down and changed to sobs. "Percy," she croaked, and he bent down and kissed her on the lips.

My vision was tinted red. "Oi!" I yelled, trying to get their attention. "You take your hands off my daughter!" I pulled them apart, and dragged Percy into the corridor.

He looked tired, and was grasping a pen in his hand. "What were you thinking, kissing my daughter!" I exploded on him. don't think I need to describe the colourful words that I used. "

"You son of a--" Angelina started, but Amy clamped a hand over her mouth.

"Language!"

" Percy just stared calmly at me. "Sir," he said carefully. "I don't think you know what happened, but Annabeth and I have been getting nightmares from Tartarus ever since we got out. That was one of the worse she'd had in months, and I'm sorry to wake you up."

"That is no excuse for kissing my daughter when you're not dating!"

He held up his hands, a look of confusion etched on his face. "So, Annabeth didn't tell you-"

"Told me what?"

"We started dating five years ago, and have been married for six months." "

Everyone screamed. No seriously, if you heard it you would be deaf, their screams were LOUD.

" "What?!"

"We got married in August on our anniversary." Percy narrowed his eyes. "But you wouldn't know because you weren't keeping in touch with your daughter!"

I looked down in shame. Then he stormed back into Annabeth's room. "We're leaving after breakfast tomorrow." He said. Anger formed in my blood.

"You have no right to control my daughter! I bet you're just a stupid demigod who has a lame parent!" I cried.

That was the final straw. Percy rounded on me. "EXCUSE ME?" He bellowed. "ALL DEMIGODS ARE POWERFUL, NO MATTER WHO THEIR GODLY PARENT IS. HOW DARE YOU INSULT US!"

I smirked at him.

"YOU UGLY LIAR. DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHO I AM? MY NAME IS PERCY JACKSON, SON OF POSEIDON."

My smirk faltered. A flashback came, and I remembered all those years ago when he was thirteen...

"I AM A GOD YOU WORTHLESS MORTAL. SO IS ANNABETH, AND SHE'S MY WIFE. I'D DO ANYTHING FOR HER."

"That still gives you no right-"

"She's pregnant with my child." Those five words took awhile to digest. "

The screaming continued, except louder (if that was even possible...)

" "P-preg-preganant?" I stuttered, but that was all I could say before something slammed into my face and darkness surrounded me. "

Aphrodite closed the book. "SNACK TIME!" She yelled. Everyone suddenly bolted for the nearest exit. Aphrodite waved her hand and the Rangers were instantly transported to the nearest mall food court.

It was pure chaos. All of the Rangers ran at the shops and demanded for
food, and the poor mortals screamed and ran around like headless chickens. Once everyone had emptied all of the food places, they overran the bookstores.

Again, the mortals bolted for the exits. Everyone started taking books off the shelves. Until the security arrived...

"Hey!" One yelled. Angelina Phillips snuck up behind him, hardcover book in hand and was about to whack him over the head with it when she realised that she didn't want to smack The Hunger Games at him, would she? So she checked the cover and was pleased to see it was Twilight.

SMACK! She whacked him over the head with it. More guards entered the store, but she hit them like a boss and once she was done, dazed security guards littered the floor.

Then Aphrodite flashed them back to the Aphrodite Rangers Amphitheatre.

"Right!" She clapped her hands together. " Part Two ~ Frederick

It's been fifteen years since I yelled at Percy. Ever since, I've never heard from them, which makes me worried. "

"Pshh, why should you be worried?" Someone said.

" So I decided to invite them on a family vacation to a nice hotel by the seaside. They said that they have two children, but are expecting another, and the oldest girl's boyfriend is coming too. Bobby and Matthew are living with their wives, and I just wanted to see Annabeth, so they weren't invited.

Helen and I reached the hotel and gasped. Percy had booked the place, and I didn't expect a five-star! The café was amazing. Who knew that they sold really good coffee? "

"Was it Starbucks?" A girl gushed, sipping on her hot chocolate that she had stolen from one of the coffee shops.

" Then a limousine pulled up."

"Dam." Thalia commented.

" Out stepped three kids. There were two boys and a girl. The girl was pretty. She was around fourteen and had curly black hair and grey eyes. Her dress was a simple blue one, but I could tell that she must've been forced to wear it because she was glaring at it and pulling at the sleeves.

The boy who was holding her hand was handsome. He had windswept brown hair and blue eyes. His jeans were ripped and he wore a plain white shirt.

The other boy was around ten or eleven. He had blonde hair and sea-green eyes. His clothes were a bit like the other boy's, except he wore a blue Finding Nemo shirt.

Then two adults stepped out. Percy and Annabeth were just as I remembered, except they looked older. Annabeth's stomach was getting large, which told me she was pregnant, and Percy had to help her out of the limousine.

"Grandpa Fred!" The little boy ran up and hugged me. The girl just rolled her eyes, but let go of the other boys hand and gave me a small hug. "

"They should be giving Leo a hug!" Someone yelled.

" Annabeth gave me a hug, but it was a bit awkward. Percy shook my hand, and so did the other boy.

"Dad, Helen." Annabeth greeted. "These are my children: Luke," she pointed to the boy with blonde hair. "Zoë." She pointed to the girl. "James isn't ours, but he's Zoë's boyfriend." Annabeth smiled warmly at James, which he returned.

"Who's his parents?" I asked.

"Our friends Jason and Piper." Percy said.

"Oh." I expected him to be mortal, but I guess he was a child of demigods.

••• "

Again, there was The Battle Of The Dots.

" We were staying for two days. Percy and Annabeth had a room together, Luke and James shared, Zoë got her own, and Helen and I got our own one too.

But then on the last night at dinner, something strange happened. Luke, James and Zoë flickered, and for a moment their forms changed. Zoë was a huntress. Her dark hair was tied back and she held a bow in one hand, a quiver of arrows slung over her back.

Luke looked around the same, except he had a scar on his face and his hair seemed shaggier and more white than golden blonde.

James's eyes turned brown, and his hair curled. The creepy part was his grin, like he had been given too much sugar. But when I blinked, the three children were the same as always. My mind must've been playing tricks on me. "

"OMG! OMG! OMG!" Rangers squealed.

" Then the girl came.

She sprinted into the hotel and made her way straight towards us in the dining room. Her brown hair was dirty and her clothes were ripped and torn, like she'd been running for days. But her eyes were distraught. They kept changing from dark blue to green, an ever changing light.

"Lily?" James stood up abruptly, knocking the table.

"James, Luke, Zoë." The girl - Lily - greeted. "Uncle Percy and Aunt Annabeth. Things are changing, something's wrong."

Percy looked taken aback. "What do you mean?"

There it was again. Luke, Zoë and James's forms flickered, and so did Lily's. Her hair turned frizzy red and her eyes changed to green. She held a blue hairbrush in one hand. But then the four kids returned to normal. "

"FFFEEEEEEEEELLLLLLSSSSSSS!" Everyone screamed.

" "What's going on?" I demanded.

Lily turned to me, a very serious look on her face. "Forces are messing with us. James is turning into Uncle Leo, Zoë is turning into Zoë Nightshade, Luke is turning into Luke Castellen, and I'm turning into Rachel Dare."
Percy gasped. "What happened to Leo and Rachel?"

Lily wiped a tear from her face. "They disappeared last night. One moment Leo was with Calypso, the next he was gone.

"I was with Rachel at Camp Half-Blood, trying to figure out a prophecy. Then she vanished in a column of white smoke-- gone."

"Wait- you said that you were figuring out a prophecy, what was it?" Annabeth asked. "

Cue gasps.

" I can help you with that, Said an angelic like voice.

"Rachel?" Percy asked. Lily's eyes turned gold. "

"IT'S R.E.D!"

" She smiled. Yes, Luke and Zoë can help too.

What about me? Demanded James. His eyes were gold too, and so were Luke and Zoë's.

Thou art kidding? Thee art no help, Leonardo Valdez. Said Zoë.

Hey! No fair. James crossed his arms over his chest and stuck his nose in the air.

Luke laughed. Funny, Leo. Really funny. But then he rolled his eyes. "

"I LOVE THIS BOOK!" Someone screamed. "And Luke..." She replied as an afterthought.

" Thy can't say much. James shot at Zoë.

Zoë glared. It's thou.

'Thou' can't say much. James mimicked, making air quotes in the air and causing Zoë to punch him.

Hey, break it up you two! As much as I would love to see Leo get beaten up by Zoë, I'm afraid that we have a prophecy on our hands. Lily said, glaring at the pair.

Fine, thee can just get on with it. Zoë punched James again.

Alright, the prophecy is:
Two fallen half-bloods
Shall take Percy Jackson's crud--

"Hey!"

--Fire and prophet shall join them,
On an adventure to find the golden golem. "

" 'Golden Golem'?" Sophia asked.

" That's it.

Percy groaned. "Not another stinking prophecy!" " Aphrodite finished. Lots of Rangers snickered while the others grinned.

"Last one! 14.) Joseph Drunnings

Ten years ago

"Goodnight mom!" Joseph told her, and padded up the stairs into his room where he crashed onto the bed, not even bothering to undress. Then he fell asleep.

Beginning of my journal

I was standing near the edge of the cliff, watching a scene. There was a boy standing protectively in front of two children. He was around my age and had windswept black hair and sea-green eyes.

In his right hand glinted a bronze sword, and standing directly in front of him was a monster- a manticore. Then things started changing, it went too fast to understand what was happening. A group of girls with bows came, a girl with curly blonde hair jumped on the monsters back, arrows flew, the girl fell of the cliff with the monster.

Then it changed. I watched the girl struggle underneath something. She seemed to be holding something up. "Luke!" She called out. "Help! You promised."

"Annabeth Chase," I saw a boy with sandy blonde hair, but I couldn't see his eyes. "I-"

Then he woke up.

After that, he searched up the name Annabeth Chase, and found what he was looking for.

And he made it his mission to find out who she was. "

"Stalker! Stalker! Stalker!" Everyone chanted.

" Ten years later...

Monday

Dear Diary,

The architecture company that I work for's manager Annabeth Jackson fits the description of Annabeth Chase perfectly. I think it is her! After all these years of searching, I've finally found her. "

"No Styx Sherlock." A Ranger muttered.

" It takes all of my willpower not to run up to her and confess my feelings, but if I did that, I would get kicked out of the company.

It's funny. She has the same last name as the famous olympic swimmer Percy Jackson. They might be siblings, maybe even adopted siblings, as she ran away from home a lot, and her mother died after she was born. "

"I love how they never figure out until the end." Someone said.

" What if they're married? No, I can't afford to think like that. If she was married, it would've come up. "

Everyone snorted.

" Signing off for now

- Joseph

Joseph shut the journal. It held all of the information that he had on Annabeth Chase. He stowed it under his bed, and went to sleep. "

Again, everyone chanted, "Stalker! Stalker! Stalker!"

" Tuesday

Dear Diary,

I got invited to dinner at Annabeth's house! Apparently all of the newbies go there for dinner one night. Some say that a few didn't come back to work the next week... "

"LOL Seems about right." A boy muttered.

" Anyway, it's on Friday. I can finally find out if she's Annabeth Chase!

I asked one of the other guys that I worked with about Annabeth. Apparently her house is a three storied mansion! There's even a backyard pool and water slides! She did say to bring my trunks incase it's a nice night.

Signing off for now,

- Joseph

••• "

The story was paused for a full-out Dot War.

" Friday

Dear Diary,

What a disappointment. I've just come back from dinner at Annabeth's house. Turns out her last name WAS Chase, but she got married to Percy Jackson (the famous swimmer) and so now it's Jackson.

The couple have been married since nineteen, (they're thirty now) and have four kids. There's Luke, Zoë, Ariel, and Nemo. "

"I wonder who named the last two..." Amy thought out loud sarcastically.

" I took her aside and confessed my obsession, the dream, and my love for her. She smiled, and said something about Percy and a guy called Nico, then said, and I quote: 'One of my friends told me this, you'll find love someday, Joseph. In the end, you will.' She went back to the kids and Percy, who were playing outside in the MASSIVE pool.

Signing off for now

- Joseph

••• "

I think you know what happened with the dots.

" Conclusion/Summary:

To conclude this journal:

I guess Annabeth wasn't the one for me. She never will, because she's got Percy.

Apparently there's a new newbie coming. I hope they didn't have a book labelled: Annabeth Chase in their room. "

"Same." Sophia agreed.

" Well, it's been a good ten years. I must say though, all of this research has propelled me to move forward, and now I have. My lovely girlfriend Ella (A friend of Annabeth's) is perfect.

Signing off forever (maybe)

- Joseph.

Now, as the author of this story, I would've liked to say that Joseph lived to a ripe old age with Ella, but that would be lying.

There's only one thing that stayed true in this story. Annabeth's friends words: "You'll find true love someday, Joseph. In the end, you will." did indeed, come true. Joseph died protecting Ella from a murderer. His girlfriend (now fiancée) lasts words were: "I will always love you."

The moral of this story? Don't make an obsession over someone in a dream.

That's not really a moral...

*throws up hands* I DON'T KNOW! THE END." Aphrodite concluded. All of the Rangers were crying from feels. She sighed. "YOU ARE DISMISSED." Then everyone went back to normal.

Well, as normal as it could be...

A/N: does anyone know how many words that was? Ah! My fingers are sore!!

Anyway, is anyone watching the ICC Cricket World Cup? No offence to anyone, but NEW ZEALAND FTW!
