The Second Legion

Is this really necessary?

Cora and Carlos walked up to the dock, yet as they were talking, Cora spotted something on the sand, one hundred feet away. "What's that? Do you know something about this?" She questioned. "Umm, I don't want to lie to you, so I am not going to talk. But I will keep you here." "Carlos, I swear, if you keep me here, I don't want to hurt you but I will if I have to. Let me up now." He rolled his eyes, and let her up. She tried to sprint off but found him slinging her over his shoulder and moving her to the dock, she threw a tantrum, yelling and kicking, he blocked her path each time. "Sorry." He spoke sarcastically, she did not return the gesture, and instead, responded by elbowing his stomach, and making a fluid movement, turned and firmly snapped her hand up, he ran into it, and sat back, rubbing his jaw, he winced and let her go. "Geez Pup. Next time, I'm not going to let you do that to me." "Sorry Car, you could have just listened to me... I told you I didn't want to goddy hurt you."

She sprint walked away until he called to her again, and she showed no expression but stopped. "Pup, hold up!" She turned towards him. "Hurry up if you're coming." She said in a mock tone. He grinned, "Consider me and my stomach warned." They walked to the spot that Cora had spotted, but twenty feet before they got there, Carlos turned Cora around to face him. "Hey, before you see this just know that it was-" Cora pushed past him. She saw her sister, kissing him on the cheek awkwardly. Cora whipped around and grabbed Carlos's collar, ignoring his satisfied smirk, pulling him away. When they were back at the dock, (Cora having switched to dragging Carlos by his ear back) she yelled at him, "You should have stopped me!" This time it was his turn to be silent in agony. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Wow." He looked up at the sky and tapped his foot. "You can't blame me." He paused, and she put a hand on his shoulder. "Sorry. You just should have warned me! Told me why I couldn't go there!" "And what would you have done?" Cora looked at her feet. "Answer me. C'mon Pup." He rephrased, taking her hand off of him. Cora didn't talk. "Answer. Or I won't talk to you for a week." He lifted her chin, but she looked the other way. "Uh Huh. Let's see how long this lasts." Carlos stepped back. "Not that goddy long." Cora muttered, "I would have gone anyway." Cora laughed and smiled. "I like that smile." Carlos said. She just rolled her eyes.

Pia blushed. "Thanks for saving me." "You kissed me on the cheek!" "It was a kiss of thanks. Not anything personal." Lucas, knowing this, turned red. The two hugged and while they were doing so Pia said "It's good to have you as a friend." Lucas looked at her hands, and sighed, "You're more than my best friend." "Well, you are mine too." The couple talked about fun games and just some random things until the sun went down. "Well, we should probably head back to our cabins." "Agreed." So the two walked together then said good night then went their ways. Pia went to the Poseidon cabin where she saw Cora looking out into the lake.

"Pia, Pia, Pia," Cora said. "What!" "I am assuming that you had a good time at the lake?" Pia turned red. And quickly asked, "Well, I could ask you the same question..." "No, you really couldn't."

Pia rolled her eyes, "Are you official?" "Nope."

Pia was laying down on her bed when Cora walked in from talking to Carlos. Picking up her drink which was apple juice from her bedside table, Pia sat down on the couch. Cora picked up a can of blue coke and sat down next to her.. "So what is going on with Lucicia these days?" Cora asked as she changed into her PJs. Pia blushed, "We don't have a ship name!" "Well, I'm shipping you!" Cora said as she chugged her eighth Coke, and Pia took a break to drink her eighth apple juice.

Pia tried to weasel anything out of Cora. Finally, she gave in. Cora was tired, yet hipper, on coke, a little delirious. Turns out that having six blue cokes an hour isn't goddy good for you. Finally, Pia asked an undodgeable question, "So are you guys a thing now and why haven't guys gotten together in like... five years?" "Look, I have known him for three years, and for three years, I have deflected him. Now I don't have a reason to." "Why did you?" "Because I, because I didn't think that, that it was right, for at 13, when you are with someone else, to be hitting on another person. And now that I am not with them, I can." "Wait. Who were you with?" "Oh um I don't think that you would know them. I mean him..." "Them? There were more than one?" "I misspoke, let it drop." "Then you can tell me his name!" "Umm, Old McDonald." "Who do you like more, Carlora, or um donald.." "I was joking." "Why can't you tell me?" Pia complained."Why is this necessary?" Cora shot back.

Lucas could barely sleep. He was thinking about Pia, as he should have turned, he needed some advice and he wanted to see Carlos for it. Carlos's plan worked perfectly. So when Pia came out...

Pia walked out of the cabin, her face bright red, and her hair done in a rush, she spotted Lucas and grinned. "So!" She said. "Umm wanna go on a walk?" "Sure!" She replied giddily. And grabbed his hand, which made him shiver, and blush. "Where to?" "Oh I don't know, how about the beach maybe?" "Sure." When they got there, he said, "So umm, about yesterday." "What about it?" She spoke nonchalantly, taking off her flip flops

. "Umm, well, I uh, ya know never mind." He turned away, but Pia put a hand on his shoulder, he turned back around expectantly,

"Well, I uh... will see you at breakfast..."

"Pia..."

"Yes?"

"See you at dinner, I mean lunch, I mean brunch, I mean breakfast, sorry."

Pia giggled, " Lucas if this is about yesterday there's nothing to worry about." "See ya Seaweed brain." The two walked away, both not wanting to leave. Mistakenly, both ended up back at the same cabin. The house of Hades. Pia, to look for Cora, and Lucas to look for Carlos, they both ended up bumping into each other again and laughed.

Cora spent most of the time before breakfast cleaning up for the cabin inspection. She Got all of her sister's apple juice boxes and her coke bottles, and put them in the trash, and disposed of them. She got all of Pia's clothes into the dresser next to her in the girl's eighth of the room. She got moonlace, multi-colored algae growing on a metal trident, and some coral and put them in the flower boxes, dusted the rug, and used a giant bucket of soap, and used a lot of water and her powers to scrub everything. Then soaked it all up, and shot it out the door, straight into... Carlos's face. He gasped and turned around and walked the other way, now sopping wet.

"Oh! Car'!" She gasped and laughed. He turned around, an unbelieving expression on his face, "Seriously? Did you just do that Pup?" "I am so sorry! I didn't see you there!" "Uh-huh thanks, hun, bye." "Car'!" She walked forward and waved her hand in a big circle and all of the water was absorbed. "I truly am sorry about that." "It's ok... breakfast?" "Love to." The kids walked to breakfast.
