Astrid Strider Daughter of Apollo

Snowball fight

THIS IS HOW NICO FLIPPING SNEEZES I suggest watching untill the end to understand...

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

Seeing the snow in camp blew my mind. I guess Mr.D had decided to let it in... I was too cold and excited to even care. I ran back inside pulling on my special black jacket and combat knee length boots and jumped on Asha's bed. "Dang it Asha, wake up!!!" I said jumping up and down. I was like a 10 year old. Asha mumbled in response, "What do you want?" "Oh my Gods, Asha, It's snowing! In camp! That got her up. She sat up too quickly knocking me off the bed. I fell on the ground but shook it off. I was too happy. It being December, I heard Will singing Jingle bells quietly. That gave me an idea to make up a song...

   After waiting for Asha, we ran outside and she yelled at how cold it was. I rolled my eyes and picked up a handful of snow, forming it into a ball. I turned to Asha who's eyes widened. "Astrid, no... Don't you dare..." I laughed and threw the ball of snow at her, hitting her in the shoulder. She screamed and picked up some snow making a snowball and getting ready to throw it at me. I laughed and ran off. She chased after me laughing as well. 

   There were other kids playing in the snow too. I saw Hazel, Frank, Tobias, Percy, and Nico talking, so I headed over after letting Asha attack me. We had a good laugh. Heading over, Asha following, I was greeted by the five. Well  Nico kinda just muttered. They were all dressed like it was freezing -which it wasn't- but I didn't question it. Before Asha could say so much as a hello, she screamed and we all turned to see why. Leo had dumped snow down her jacket from behind. Soon she left chasing the Latino Elf, as I called him now that I thought about it. Tobias laughed and whooped, "GET HIM ASHA!!!" We all laughed. 

   "So what do you guys wanna do before breakfast, if you're up for it?" I asked rubbing my cold hands together. A smile formed on Percy and Tobias' faces as the shared a look. "SNOWBALL FIGHT!!!" They bellowed, and we dashed to opposite sides. On my side, I had Percy, and Nico. Tobias, Frank, and Hazel were who we were against. I had ducked behind a tree with Percy and Nico following. Percy laughed and Nico wheezed like he just had the wind knocked out of him. "Alright, Nico, make as many snowballs as you can. Astrid, cover me." Percy said scooping up some snowballs Nico had already started making.

   I grabbed some snowballs myself  thanking Nico and followed Percy. He threw a snowball hitting Hazel who squealed and threw a snowball nearly hitting me if I had not jumped out of the way so quickly. I ran and threw a ball at Frank who was about to hit Percy. We were doing great laughing and throwing snowballs at each other. Nico had even joined in and was laughing himself. After a while we had all calmed down and sat in the snow laughing. Then I realized... Where has been Tobias this whole time?

   Much to mine and I'm sure the others dismay, Tobias cackled like a mad scientist standing next to an giant catapult with a giant ball of snow. Before we could even protest he released it. Soon, we were buried in cold white glittery snow. I had finally made my way out and punched Tobias in the shoulder playfully, "Cheater..." I mumbled. He punched my bandage shoulder and I yelped, "Hey! That's my injured shoulder!" He chuckled and we greeted the others. 

   Soon after breakfast, we were all siting in Percy's cabin, drinking hot chocolate. Asha and Leo were there too. Nico suddenly out of nowhere, sneezed. Making Hazel scream as well as everyone else. I laughed. "Hey, that gives me the idea of the song!" Tobias perked up, "SING IT!" He howled. I laughed, "Alright, but..." I whisper in his ear asking who should be the one who smells and he replied. I cleared my throat and sang, "Jingle bells Percy smells, Frankie laid an egg, Nico sneezed and Hazel screamed and so did all the rest!" Everybody laughed and Nico's face turned red. "Is my sneeze really that scream-able...?" Everyone in unison said, "Yes!" Asha said leaning in Leo's arm holding her hot chocolate, "You sound like a kitten!"

So I hoped you like it! I got the song idea from a story I read, and I just had to write this chapter because it's almost Christmas, and I just had to make Nico sneeze... Cute little kitten sneeze....  XD
