WHY DID ALWAYS HAPPEN TO THE HOT GIRLS?

Her huge gash and scratches looked fine from outside, but felt like mini truck rollers pulled her muscle apart every second. The only difference, was the size, not the weight. This was an excellent way to revise for her English test back in Wilderness school, that they might've missed already. The quote was "don't judge a hot bitch by her looks."

She could not write that, obviously. Her English teacher was a huge boomer, misogynist and a Karen, that hated girls with open hair. 

But at this moment, she would rather hear about proper ladies in the Victorian era, then rather slam into a closed car plant in Detroit. The slight summer breeze could still be felt by her summoning of her fathers powers, but that just made her more tired. She had zoned out not realizing that Piper was calling her out.

"You bitch!" Piper yelled as Jason closed his ears to her shrill scream.

"What's up mama?" Penelope asked, shooting finger guns at Piper.

"Oh lord, save me." Piper muttered.

"Well its technically Venus, your mom." Jason said.

"But she speaks Greek, so Aphrodite right?" Penelope asked.

"How 'bout you both merge them?" Piper asked. "New name!" Penelope noticed the sarcasm too late.

"Aphronus?" Penelope suggested.

"Cool!" Jason clapped.

Piper smacked their heads so hard, Penelope wouldn't have realized her ankle was broken.

"Aw! C'mon! Tell the truth Pipes! You love it. You love me~" Penelope sang, in her out-of-tone voice.

"Nah." Jason muttered. "Whatcha think fashionista?" Jason asked.

"Jason," she said. "Speaking of the truth, I need to tell you something—something about my dad—"

She didn't get the chance. Somewhere below, metal clanged against metal, like a door slamming shut. The sound echoed through the warehouse.

Jason stood. He took out his coin and flipped it, snatching his golden sword out of the air. He peered over the railing. "Leo?" he called. Penelope snatched her necklace, and a huge bow flew up and fell down right in her hand. She stood, mostly on the support of the wall behind her.

No answer.

He crouched next to Piper. "I don't like this."

"He could be in trouble," Piper said. "Go check."

"I can't leave you both alone."

"I'll be fine." She felt terrified, but she wasn't about to admit it. She drew her dagger Katoptris and tried to look confident. "Anyone gets close, I'll skewer them."

"She has a doctor with her," Penelope said, pointing at herself.

"A dead-undead doctor yes." Jason muttered.

"What did you say Grace?!" Penelope asked.

Jason backed off, walking behind slowly, flipping Penelope off while saying, "Come! Catch me!"

"SHUT UP BOTH OFF YOU!" Piper yelled. "PENELOPE! SIT DOWN! NOW!"

Penelope wasn't crazy to disobey a model warrior. "And if you don't come back son-of-the-stupid-king-of-greek-gods, we'll-"
